Morning, Ricky here

with your morning news.

And it's a very sporty Saturday.

Short track speed skater

Elise Christie will kick

off her Olympic campaign.

The triple World champion

is one of Britains biggest

medal hopes at the games.

She was disqualified

in all three races at the last

Olympics, so will definitely

have a point to prove.

The Welsh will be looking

for revenge in the Six

Nations later today.

They've lost their last three

games against England.

But it won't be easy -

England are on a 14-game

winning streak for matches

played at Twickenham.

And the North London derby

between Spurs and Arsenal

is the highlight of today's

Premier League games.

It will be the first time the rivals

have met at Wembley since 1993.

Next, to a big anniversary

from earlier in the week.

100 years since a change in the law

gave women in the UK the right

to vote in General Elections

for the first time.

They still didn't have the same

voting rights as men,

but it marked an important

step towards equality.

But what does equality mean?

Let's hear what this lot think.

It means if the boys can do it, you

can as well.

Equality to me means

listening to everybody and valuing

what they have to say, no matter who

they are.

My very favourite

description of equality comes from

an indigenous tribe in Latin

America, where they say, are tribe

is like an eagle. An eagle has two

wings, one is male, one is female.

Only when the two wings are equal

with our tribe fly true.

Equality to

me means having equal rights between

men and women or whatever gender you

identify as.

Equality is super

important to me and it should be to

all of you watching, the reason is,

because we don't have it yet.

If we

don't consider the voices of half

the world, we just miss out on the

voices of half the population.

I see

it loads in school where girls can

act the same as boys do the same

things and they get personally

attacked by boys and that's not

cool.

I think it's really important

that we live in a society that is

fair.

To do lots of people are still

fighting to have equality.

We have a

long way to go, but we are going in

the right direction.

Finally, you've heard of a catwalk,

but how about a dog walk?

Well, take a look at this.

Some of New York's most pampered

pooches and their zany owners have

been taking to the stage

for the annual New York

Pet Fashion Show.

The event raises money

for animal rescue charities.

We're back at 12:15.

See you then.
