Stacey Dooley has been presenting television documentaries for over 10 years – on everything from drug cartels in Southern Spain to illegal pornography in South Korea. Now the Sunday Times bestselling author has released a new book, exploring the state of mental health in the UK. ‘Are You Really OK?' looks at – amongst other things – issues of PTSD, depression, psychosis; and what causes these things. Stacey reveals what she's learnt. Yesterday on the programme we discussed the culture of policing in the light of misogynistic, discriminatory and violent texts exchanged between serving officers between 2016 and 2018. They were revealed as part of an IOPC investigation at Charing Cross police station in London. These revelations follow the murder of Sarah Everard and the treatment of Bibaa Henry and Nicole Smallman by serving Metropolitan Police officers. We asked how can a toxic culture be changed? A mother, Amanda, contacted us while we were on air. Her son, George, is planning to join the Police later this year and she is worried but he is determined to be part of the change. They both join Emma. Two women with no previous rowing experience have smashed the world record for the fastest female pair to row across the Atlantic. Jessica Oliver and Charlotte Harris rowed 3000 miles over 45 days in the Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge, battling 30 ft waves, sharks and sleep deprivation. They join us to discuss the experience. Some of Afghanistan's public universities reopened yesterday for the first time since the Taliban took over the country, with female students joining their male counterparts heading back to classes. Girls are still not allowed to attend secondary schools, and women remain barred from many jobs outside the health and teaching sector. This is unfolding against the backdrop of a major humanitarian crisis. Fawzia Koofi, the former Vice President of the National Assembly in Kabul and women's rights activist, updates us. You know the rhyme “divorced beheaded died, divorced, beheaded, survived.” The first women to lose her head at the hands of Henry VIII was Anne Boleyn - and her story is so often characterised by that tragic outcome that we may have overlooked the fact that she was a feminist and ahead of her time. This is the view of Dr Owen Emmerson who has curated an exhibition at Hever Castle - Anne's childhood home - called Becoming Anne: Connections, Culture, Court. But can she be seen as a feminist when the word hadn't even been invented? Emma is joined by Owen and Tracy Borman, the Tudor historian and Chief Curator at Historic Royal Palaces who is currently writing a book about the relationship between Anne Boleyn and her daughter Elizabeth.

Gloria Allred is probably the best known women's rights lawyer in the US.

She talks to Womans' Hour about the situation facing the Duke of York, the possible retrial of Ghislaine Maxwell & her admiration for Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

The IOPC has said: "We believe these incidents are not isolated or simply the behaviour of a few 'bad apples'." The Met has said that it is 'sorry'. We get reaction from Zoe Billingham, former Her Majesty's Inspector of Constabulary and Shabnam Chaudhri, who served as an officer in the Met for 30 years. Monica Ali wrote her bestseller Brick Lane nearly 20 years ago. Her new book is called Love Marriage. It's about two families who are brought together when Yasmin and Joe fall in love. Scottish crime writer, Val McDermid, has stopped sponsoring a football club that's been part of her life since she was a baby.

Val says she can't see herself ever going back to Raith Rovers.

Posing as a plainclothes officer, Couzens raped and murdered Sarah Everard after kidnapping her under the guise of an arrest. Couzens erstwhile colleagues were soon onto him. He confessed and on 30 September 2021, a judge told him he'd spend the rest of his life in prison.

An IOPC investigation concluded that officers 'acted appropriately' during a stop and search carried out by Territorial Support Group (TSG) officers in Tottenham in May 2020. A partial video clip of the search, which was widely shared on social media at the time, led to widespread criticism of the officers even though the clip only shared one part of the encounter. The sharing of such partial clips of the police's interaction with members of the public has become more common.

Boris Johnson é acusado de conflito de interesses Segundo jornal, ex-modelo recebeu cerca de R$ 645 mil de fundos públicos e se beneficiou de tratamento privilegiado quando Johnson era prefeito de Londres. Empresa de Jennifer Arcuri participou de contratos aos quais não teria acesso se não fosse pela amizade dela com o atual premiê. O premiê britânico, Boris Johnson, é acusado de envolvimento em um suposto caso de conflito de interesses por causa do relacionamento que manteve quando era prefeito de Londres com uma empresária e ex-modelo, um caso sobre o qual a Administração Metropolitana de Londres pediu nesta sexta-feira (27) a abertura de uma investigação. De acordo com o "Sunday Times", Jennifer Arcuri, uma ex-modelo americana que passou para o mundo dos negócios, teria recebido 126 mil libras (cerca de R$ 645 mil) de fundos públicos e se beneficiou de tratamento privilegiado quando Johnson dirigiu a administração municipal da capital britânica. Após essas revelações, a administração metropolitana da Grande Londres pediu aos serviços competentes da Polícia Britânica (Escritório Independente de Conduta Policial, IOPC) que investigassem o caso, afirmou em comunicado na noite de sexta-feira. Johnson, que sofreu várias derrotas políticas desde sua eleição para o cargo de primeiro-ministro no fim de agosto passado, foi prefeito de Londres entre 2008 e 2016. Supostamente, graças à sua amizade com Johnson, Jennifer Arcuri pode participar de missões comerciais e se beneficiar de contratos de patrocínio que nem ela nem suas empresas poderiam ter desfrutado de nenhuma outra maneira, de acordo com o texto. Especificamente, um contrato de patrocínio de 2013 no valor de 10 mil libras (mais de R$ 51 mil) e outro de 1.500 libras (cerca de R$ 7.600) em 2014 da empresa de Arcuri, Innotech. Segundo o "Sunday Times", Jennifer Arcuri também teria recebido 15 mil libras (aproximadamente R$ 76.600) de fundos do governo em 2014, como parte de um programa para incentivar empreendedores estrangeiros a criar parcerias no Reino Unido; assim como 100 mil (mais de R$ 510 mil) libras no mesmo ano de fundos destinados a empresas britânicas. Tanto Boris Johnson como Jennifer Arcuri negam qualquer irregularidade.
