In 2011, Virginia Roberts Giuffre became known as the most outspoken victim of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. Her campaigning against their abuse and trafficking helped to get justice for many women, but she was perhaps best known for a now-infamous photograph, taken when she was aged just 17, meeting with Prince Andrew. She claimed it was taken prior to one of three times she was forced to have sex with the King's brother. Encounters he vehemently denies took place but which have led to his public downfall, with Prince Andrew reportedly paying around £12 million to Roberts Giuffre, formally ending a civil case brought against him in the US without admitting liability. Earlier this year, Virginia took her own life. Before she died, she wrote a memoir, determined for the world to finally hear her story in her own words. In this episode of The Fourcast, Jackie Long speaks to Virginia's brother and sister-in-law, Sky and Amanda Roberts, about the woman behind the headlines, the legacy she leaves, and the campaigning she wanted to be remembered for. They also express their frustration with the Metropolitan Police response - but the Met reiterated to Channel 4 News today that they do not consider themselves the appropriate authority to investigate alleged crimes in the UK related to the Jeffrey Epstein case.This episode includes conversation around suicide and abuse.

In 2011, newly surfaced emails suggest that Prince Andrew attempted to use a Metropolitan Police protection officer—assigned to him as part of his royal security detail—to dig up damaging information on Virginia Giuffre, the woman who accused him of sexual abuse linked to Jeffrey Epstein. The email reportedly contained Giuffre's date of birth and U.S. Social Security number and alleged she had a criminal record in the United States. It was sent to a royal press aide, implying coordination to discredit Giuffre before the now-infamous photograph of Andrew with her surfaced. There is no evidence that the officer followed through on the request, and Giuffre's family has confirmed she never had a criminal record. The revelation underscores Andrew's desperation at the time to undermine his accuser rather than face the allegations head-on, revealing a cynical attempt to weaponize his royal privilege and the resources of law enforcement against a survivor.The Metropolitan Police have since announced they are “actively looking into” the claims, which have triggered widespread public disgust and renewed scrutiny over Andrew's use of taxpayer-funded protection. The timing of the revelations—coming shortly after Andrew's forced relinquishment of his Duke of York title and amid continued fallout from his ties to Epstein—paints a picture of a man still trying to manipulate institutions to protect his reputation. The notion that a royal would attempt to enlist the police to smear a victim of alleged trafficking is seen by critics as emblematic of the rot within Britain's elite power structure. For a man who insists he “never met” Virginia Giuffre, his determination to have her investigated says everything about guilt, arrogance, and moral decay behind palace walls.to contact  me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Met Police to look into claims Prince Andrew sought information on accuser

Secret filming by the BBC's Panorama programme last night revealed evidence of racism, misogyny and officers revelling in the use of force at one of London's busiest police stations. Panorama's evidence suggests that a toxic culture still exists inside the Met and that racist and misogynistic attitudes haven't been eliminated but have been driven underground. Anita Rani speaks to Matt Jukes, Deputy Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police.The secrets we keep reflect the conventions, taboos and laws of the outside world, and women have traditionally had the bigger burden of secrets, often unable to reveal things that could get them or others judged, in society or by law. Anita talks to Juliet Nicolson about her new book The Book of Revelations which explores secrets through social history, her own family and many case studies she spoke to. The conservationist and primatologist Dame Jane Goodall died yesterday, aged 91. According to the Jane Goodall Institute, she died of natural causes in California where she was staying as part of a speaking tour in the US. There has been tributes from around the world. Joining me Anita to remember this ground-breaking conservationist who revolutionised the study of great apes is wildlife biologist, National Geographic Explorer and President of the Wildlife Trust, Liz Bonnin, and Jillian Miller who is the director of the Gorilla Organisation who work to save gorillas from extinction.From gowns buried underground to transforming fabrics with melted bandages, fashion has a history of exploring the aesthetics of dirt and decay.

Anita is joined by the exhibition's curator, Karen Van Godtsenhoven, and artist and designer, Michaela Stark, whose work challenges ideas of imperfection.Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Rebecca Myatt

Today Scotland Yard chief Sir Mark Rowley has apologised after serving officers called for immigrants to be shot, revelled in the use of force and were dismissive of rape claims in an undercover BBC documentary, which was aired on Wednesday night.

Dr Aaron Winter, a senior lecturer in sociology at Lancaster University, responds to the news.

Today's show opened with some laughs and studio banter before we got into the heavier discussions. The team reflected on culture and spirituality - from stories of “juju” protection and near-death escapes, to whether these beliefs are luck, faith, or simply human choices at play.The spotlight then shifted to Dr. Umar Johnson, with updates on his FDMG school, his fundraising, and the latest controversies about whether he is genuinely building or simply performing. The conversation sparked debate about leadership, accountability, and how the community should judge progress.From there, the panel dived into the ongoing violence in Nigeria. Listeners raised concerns that Christian persecution and mass killings are being minimised or ignored, despite thousands of deaths and destroyed churches. The discussion examined whether this is truly religious violence or a mix of ethnic conflict, financial exploitation, political instability, and Western corporate interests in Nigeria's resources. Dr. Shola's campaign video was dissected, highlighting contradictions, agendas, and the wider question of why African crises get sidelined compared to Palestine or Israel.In headlines, we covered:The US government shutdown and its fallout for workers and services.Labour's shifting tax position and the impact of frozen thresholds on Londoners.Undercover footage exposing racism and violence among Met Police officers.PPE MedPro losing a £122m court case over faulty COVID contracts.Keir Starmer refusing to call Donald Trump's “Sharia law” comments racist.Updates in the Lucy Letby case, with new questions raised about the prosecution's evidence.The show closed with a focus on Black History Month, welcoming filmmaker Fizzy to discuss the upcoming film Three Cold Dishes, executive produced by Burna Boy.

A BBC reporter working for the Panorama programme has spent seven months undercover at a major police station in London to find out how much the Metropolitan police force has changed, since a highly critical report into its culture more than two years ago.Rory Bibb got a job at Charing Cross police station and filmed some of what he witnessed during his time there. His footage reveals racism, officers bragging about the use of force and misogyny. The Metropolitan Police Commissioner called the footage "horrific". As a result of the investigation eleven people - most of them serving officers - are under investigation for potential gross misconduct.Also on the programme: Chris Packham remembers fellow naturalist and world-renowned expert on chimpanzees Jane Goodall, who has died aged 91.And as Sir Keir Starmer says he'll change the way international law is interpreted in order to make it easier to deport illegal immigrants, we speak to the former President of Belgium's Constitutional Court who has become the go-to legal expert for European countries who believe the European Convention on Human Rights is hindering deportation efforts.

When Scotland Yard announced it was closing its investigation into Jeffrey Epstein in 2021, it sparked widespread criticism and renewed allegations of institutional cowardice. The Metropolitan Police had previously reviewed several allegations involving Epstein and his associates—including claims made by Virginia Giuffre that she was trafficked to Prince Andrew in London—but ultimately concluded there was “no further action” to be taken. Despite international pressure and mounting evidence, the decision signaled that UK authorities were unwilling to pursue meaningful accountability, especially when it involved proximity to the royal family. Critics saw the move as a transparent effort to shield powerful figures from exposure rather than a genuine conclusion based on lack of evidence.The announcement reinforced a pattern familiar to Epstein's victims: doors closing, institutions retreating, and justice slipping further out of reach. Scotland Yard's explanation leaned heavily on jurisdictional limitations and a vague assertion that the case had already been “reviewed twice,” but it did little to explain why the London portion of Giuffre's allegations—where she claimed she was trafficked and abused at Ghislaine Maxwell's residence—wasn't pursued with greater urgency. For many, the decision served as yet another reminder that Epstein's network didn't just corrupt individuals—it hollowed out the very systems that were supposed to stand against him.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11138849/Met-Police-drop-investigation-disgraced-Jeffrey-Epstein-absence-information.html

Israel has faced fierce criticism at the UN Security Council in New York of its plan to step up the war in Gaza. Britain's envoy said an expanded offensive would open the way to more bloodshed. But the US representative insisted Israel could decide how to ensure its own security. Also, the Met Police says the majority of the more than 500 people arrested for supporting the banned group Palestine Action yesterday were aged over 50. And the voice of Mr Benn -- the actor Ray Brooks -- has died.

The Met Police could be “tested to the limit” as hundreds have been urged to declare support for Palestine Action in central London this weekend. Protesters are being urged to turn up en masse to test whether the state can respond to such a big endorsement for the recently proscribed terror group, with organisers saying “there is safety in numbers”. Tim Crossland, a former government lawyer, who now campaigns with the civil liberties movement Defend Our Juries, has the latest.

Meet Phil Cain... Phil is a great friend of our special friend Captain Bing Bong Peter Higgins 'I Spent 30yrs in the Met Police, the last 15 as a Detective. On leaving I wanted to fulfil a passion I've always had - working in aviation and I was able to do that. I've worked at Gatwick for a number of years both on a Resilience Team and for the last couple of years as a Ramp Agent. I fly when I can (As a passenger) and still get excited about it! I live 20 mins from the Airport with my wife and 3 cats and love cruises, travel and my job!'

Today's Arsecast Extra comes in three parts. In the first, we chat about the confirmation of Martin Zubimendi's transfer and what he'll bring to the team; the big striker news as it appears Arsenal have decided to sign Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting; reported interest in Chelsea's Noni Madueke and how that stacks up; Leandro Trossard linked with a move to Fenerbahce; and Takehiro Tomiyasu's slightly unexpected departure.Part 2 begins at 45'05 and runs until 1:13'09. We discuss the fact that Thomas Partey has been charged by the Met Police with rape and sexual assault. We understand this might be difficult for some listeners, so you can skip if it's not something you want to listen to, but we talk about the news being public, the way Arsenal handled the situation as a whole, the responsibility of those at the top of the club to uphold values, and how we felt about a possible contract extension. This is the article mentioned in the discussion - https://substack.com/inbox/post/167542986In the third part, it's listener questions involving Ethan Nwaneri's contract, Gabriel Heinze being added to the coaching staff, how transfer rumours like the Gyokeres one on Sunday disseminate, and more.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

Step into the future of policing where data is a mission-critical asset. Cindi Howson talks with Aimee Smith, Director of Data at the Metropolitan Police, about the Met's bold data transformation—from digitizing records dating back to 1829 to using AI and cloud tech for smarter, faster decisions. Hear how initiatives like the V100 program and real-time analytics help improve city safety. Key Moments: Genesis of the Met's Data Strategy (03:35) - The Met's data strategy's origin is traced to former Commissioner Cressida Dick's leadership, who envisioned leveraging data to transform policing, leading to a program building data capabilities and broadening analytics use beyond traditional intelligence and performance applications.  Mission with Data and AI (13:34): The Met's overarching mission to use data and AI for precise decision-making is articulated, acknowledging the complexity of policing's multiple goals: crime prevention, incident response, organized crime intervention, victim service, and custody safety.  Infrastructure Evolution (15:18): The transformation of the Met's data infrastructure over 5 years, from 8 separate operational systems to an integrated one with cloud technology adoption, is described, enhancing analytics and data science capabilities.  V100 Initiative (19:58): The V100 initiative, a data and analytics effort to reduce violence against women and girls by prioritizing individuals with a history of harm, is explained.  Concert Security Powered by Analytics (27:50): The use of ThoughtSpot by frontline officers is illustrated with a sergeant's innovative application for analyzing crime data around events like the Taylor Swift Eras tour to improve policing plans.  AI Agent Development (36:37): An innovative project to build an AI agent that assists frontline officers at crime scenes by providing real-time guidance is outlined, aiming to improve public protection and investigative outcomes.  Key Quotes:“So if an officer wants to start being able to do their own searches, creating their own sort of planners, thinking about doing their own trend analysis essentially, of crime data, which is great, isn't it? I mean, that's just exactly how you want ThoughtSpot to be used. Every officer has access to that.” - Aimee Smith"I like to think of it as a utility belt—you know how cops wear their utility belt? Well, hanging on there is this ThoughtSpot tool. A sergeant invented a way to use it for planning major events, concerts, to make sure our presence is right. And now that's replicable by other people who want to do the same thing." - Aimee Smith"One of the 5 principles of our business strategy for London to keep it safe is to be more precise in the use of data for decision making. So it's a high-level principle of our strategy. That makes data and analytics much harder, because there aren't enough data specialists and too many data parts to point at all those missions in one go.” - Aimee SmithMentionsMet Police's V100 InitiativeMet Police Develops an Open Data Strategy with the Open Data InstituteMet Police's Concert Preparation for Taylor Swift's Eras Tour Cressida Dick Reflects on Public Trust in the Digital Age The Data Protection ActGuest Bio Aimee Smith's distinguished career in the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) spans almost a quarter-century, truly a testament to her profound dedication to integrating robust data into the very core of police decision-making. She embarked on her journey in 2001 as an Intelligence Analyst, steadily rising through the ranks. By 2014, her leadership capabilities led her to head UK Policing's largest Confidential Intelligence Unit. A pivotal "light-bulb moment" crystallized for her the critical importance of effective data management in driving operational outcomes, inspiring her to passionately spearhead the comprehensive MPS data transformation program. In a landmark achievement, Aimee was appointed as the first Director of Data for the MPS, where in 2019, she successfully established the inaugural Data Office within law enforcement, fundamentally reshaping how the service leverages its information.
