Gisèle Pelicot's memoir has just been published, and the Jeffrey Epstein files continue to become public. While the admirable Ms Pelicot has become a modern heroine, the two stories have forced a strong focus upon a core common reality: women remain the ultimate objects, to be subjugated by men.Ms Pelicot, the survivor of multiple rapes while rendered unconscious by her husband, recovered her own agency by refusing to remain anonymous, and by demanding that shame shift to the other side, to the perpetrators, to the men who raped her. The survivors of the Epstein abuse have not been so lucky: attention has been largely upon the powerful and famous men involved in this long running story of rape and abuse of minors, of young underage women.Many women, and men, feel deep outrage about both these appalling events, but it isn't always easy to talk about them. However, Katrin Bennhold of the New York Times and Elisa Braun of Euractiv, both senior investigative reporters and experienced journalists, explain so much about how these stories are reported, and express measures of disgust that enhance our own deep-felt emotions in the face of these criminal misogynistic abuses.A fascinating, flowing and necessary discussion.This episode was recorded on 19 February 2026ChaptersContrasting stories: Pelicot vs. EpsteinCivil courage and accountabilityWhen Justice is deniedInvestigative journalism: trust and traumaConspiracy theories and institutional trustMentionsThe World newsletter - The New York TimesThe Rapporteur newsletter - EuractivGisèle Pelicot's bookCongressional hearing on Epstein files Grooming girls in Rotherham by Katrin BennholdEpstein files 101 with Matt GoldsteinMarina Hyde on the Epstein filesFollowKatrin Bennhold LinkedInElisa Braun LinkedInIlana Bet-ElInstagram @women_leaders_podcastListen this episode on our YouTube channelOur partner European Leadership Network Twitter LinkedIn Facebook websiteCreditsProduction: Florence FerrandoMusic: Let Good Times Roll, RA from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/ra/let-good-times-rollLicense code: ZXIIIJUU2ISPZIJTContribute to the conversation with a comment & a 5-⭐️Reach us on our Instagram and follow for updates @women_leaders_podcastWatch now our episode on Youtube Hosted on Acast.

Robert Jenrick MP, Reform UK's shadow chancellor, and Dai Davies, former head of Royal protection, come on The Julia Hartley-Brewer Show to discuss remarkable breaking news at the start of Julia's broadcast - that Andrew had been arrested at the Sandringham Estate for misconduct in public office. Andrew denies wrongdoing and has not yet been charged - as of the time of publishing. King Charles has released a statement saying ‘the law must take its course'.The continued release of the Epstein files have unveiled the extent of his relationship with the paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein. E-mail exchanges between the pair reveal that Andrew handed over sensitive documents to Mr Epstein in his role as trade envoy to the British government. He is currently being investigated by NINE separate police forces throughout the country. Also: Robert Jenrick reacts to a Talk exclusive - the news that various British Chaggossians have been served an eviction notice after landing on the island in protest at Britain's deal. Keir Starmer had agreed to give away the islands and lease back the Diego Garcia military base. American president Donald Trump has flip-flopped on his support for the deal. And Robert Jenrick reacts to a BBC investigation into rape gangs in London. Sadiq Khan has previously denied any awareness of systemic grooming in the capital, despite their prevalence in other parts of the country such as Rotherham. Julia Hartley-Brewer broadcasts on Talk from Monday to Thursday, 10AM to 1PM. Available on YouTube and streaming platforms, along with DAB+ radio and your smart speaker. Hosted on Acast.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with investigative journalist and feminist campaigner Julie Bindel for a forensic and deeply disturbing conversation on Britain's grooming gang scandal, institutional failure, and the ongoing cover-up.Julie traces the origins of the r*pe gang crisis back to the 1990s, long before it became national news, and explains how police, social services, and local authorities repeatedly ignored warnings from families. We discuss cases from Leeds, Blackpool, Rotherham, Telford, and London, and examine why organised child sexual exploitation by predominantly Pakistani Muslim gangs was treated as politically untouchable.The conversation explores the role of multiculturalism, fear of being labelled racist, and the systematic refusal to prosecute perpetrators or protect victims. Julie outlines how many abused girls were instead criminalised, dismissed as troublesome, or left trapped in prostitution, while those responsible faced little accountability.We also examine Sadiq Khan's denial of grooming gangs in London, the contrast between county lines drug crime and organised r*pe networks, and Rupert Lowe's independent inquiry into the scandal. Julie argues that without a full statutory inquiry, with real legal consequences, justice will remain out of reach for thousands of victims.A harrowing and unflinching discussion about child sexual exploitation, state failure, political cowardice, and whether Britain is finally prepared to confront one of the darkest chapters in its modern history.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To see more exclusive content and interviews consider subscribing to my substack here: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Substack: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/X: https://twitter.com/mrwinmarshallInsta: https://www.instagram.com/winstonmarshallLinktree: https://linktr.ee/winstonmarshall----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Chapters00:00 Introduction02:41 The Origins of Grooming Gangs07:13 Police & Social Services Failures09:41 Why the Media Refused to Report It14:28 The Charlene Downes Case Explained18:55 The Guardian Rejection22:23 Politics & Institutional Fear26:37 The London Grooming Gangs Reality31:53 Sadiq Khan, County Lines & Race Baiting35:48 Why the Victims Were Blamed47:16 The National Inquiry & What It Must Expose53:22 Trafficking Girls to Pakistan59:58 “Hundreds of Thousands” of Victims1:02:25 Quashing Victim Convictions & Amnesty1:05:09 Starmer, Political Will & What Happens Next Hosted on Acast.

Ten weeks ago, the general consensus was Swansea City were in a relegation battle. Thirteen games later, has new manager Vitor Matos transformed the team into Championship play-off contenders? A comfortable 4-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday leaves the Swans just five points adrift of the top six, but four games against team above them in the table await.Wrexham failed to give owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac a win to mark five years at the helm by slipping up at home to Millwall. Attention now turns to the fourth round of the FA Cup against Ipswich Town.No such problems for Cardiff City, who shrugged off the 20th-minute red card to Ryan Wintle to win 3-0 at Rotherham, a display described by Iwan as one of the best he can recall by a team with 10 men.

Cardiff City beat Rotherham with ten men, and the boys from the VFTN are back to pick through that result and talk about whatever else springs up. We also look at your comments, talk about the rest of the league, and look ahead to Luton. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This season in a change to what we normally do Pete Nordsted & Jimmy Kempton  will start looking at games from the EFL as well as the Premier League.This weeks matches we look at the following:Premier League: Wolves v Chelsea, Newcastle v Brentford. Championship: Birmingham v Leicester & Wrexham v MillwallLeague One: Mansfield v Exeter & Rotherham v CardiffLeague Two: Cheltenham v MK Dons & Newport v Grimsbyhttps://tradeonsports.co.uk

A bruising 4-0 home defeat to Arsenal and we're not holding back. Darragh climbed off his sick bed to deliver a passionate verdict on Daniel Farke's team selection — why was Gruev starting ahead of Longstaff against the best set-piece team in the country? Why Justin at centre-back instead of Bornauw? And why is 70 minutes always the magic number for subs? We debate whether Farke is reverting to old habits that could cost Leeds dearly. The silver lining? West Ham's spectacular collapse against Chelsea — 2-0 up at half-time, missed two more golden chances, and somehow lost 3-2 with Todibo sent off. Twitter was a wonderful place afterwards. We look ahead to Friday night's huge clash with Nottingham Forest at Elland Road. Neco Williams is banned after his heroic/idiotic handball on the line, but Sean Dyche has them well organised and unbeaten in four. Can Farke get the selection right this time? Plus - do we need a goalkeeper more than a striker? Harry Gray scores two belters for Rotherham, Erling Haaland gives the Leeds salute to Galatasaray fans (Dara's written him a song), and the worst foul throws in Premier League history.

Danny and Lee are back and this week they are discussing the 1-1 draw away to Rotherham, is that a point gained? or did we need all 3 points? They talk about the form of Marcus Browne, especially away from home and will he ever turn it on at Plough Lane? does he deserve more love and respect? Lee wants to discuss modern football and why people seem to be disconnected from their clubs as well as the game just being full of average players. They finish by previewing the massive games against Bolton and Port Vale. Thank you to our sponsors Fletcher Fabrications and Simon/Ori Carr Hosted on Acast.

With the squad at their disposal Ipswich look ominous and despite a slow start Wrexham are now only a point below the play offs in ninth.In League One, much to Tom's delight it's hard to look past Lincoln City who beat Cardiff, Stockport, Huddersfield and Peterborough over Christmas…can they really stay the course?

It's Monday 15th December and in this evening's show we react to the Saturday's two all draw against Lincoln at Bloomfield Road with Blackpool showing new battling qualities to get back into the game after a shocking start.

Two wins in a row. So surely everyone is bouncing off the walls with pre-Christmas cheer. Well, not quite.Liam and Seve join regulars Archie, Mark and Chris, and in Part One pragmatism is the name of the game. Some outstanding performances at the back, slowly tapering the further up the field, punctuated by a great goal just before half-time. Should we expect more, or is it misery to do anything but applaud another back-to-the-wall effort? The bar is low, but we are starting to clear it.We also have a voice note from journalist John Duerden, sharing his full-time thoughts. John has a new website launching on 1st January: “An outsider's view of the ups and downs of Plymouth Argyle FC. Features, news, interviews & much more.” Part Two sees the return of the quiz! We look back a couple of years to a very different Rotherham game and pine for a squad that, in hindsight, had some absolute superstars. Having a copy of the squad from the season before is NOT cheating.Part Three tries to tie things in festive bows. Are we actually improving, or is this a false dawn? Should we be happy with what we've got, or demand more? Or should we take it all a little less seriously and enjoy the moment? The diversity of opinion reflects an unusual time for the club, where a slide down or a spring up seems equally possible.Six-pointer next at Doncaster. Let's hope the rebuild continues… Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Town head to Oakwell on Saturday looking for a fourth straight win in Barnsley, and Kev is joined by The Lutonian journalist James Cunliffe to preview a match we sincerely hope will involve actual football after the Rotherham non-event. The boys start by breaking down Barnsley's biggest threats and why this isn't the assignment some Luton fans think it is. From their danger men to the tactical traps the Tykes like to spring, the chaps look at where Jack Wilshere's side must be switched on. Attention then turns to the Hatters: will there be changes, who comes in, and how exactly Luton can hurt Barnsley? The lads debate the key selection calls, the best blueprint for three points and whether this game sparks into life. All this, plus score predictions, fan concerns, optimism checks and a few laughs along the way on the longest running, award winning Luton Town podcast.

Dave, Bottaro, and Darren got together to discuss the incredibly dull game against the Millers and to look back on Jack Wilshere's first month in charge at Luton.

Luton were held to a 0–0 draw by Rotherham United at Kenilworth Road in one of the strangest matches of the season. Almost nothing happened, but sometimes that tells you more than a wild end-to-end game. Kev and The Lutonian journalist James Cunliffe break down a match that gave us very little to analyse on the pitch, so the focus turns to what this performance actually means for Jack Wilshere's Hatters. The boys discuss: • Why the Town couldn't break down the brick wall that Rotherham set up • Whether the lack of chances is a real concern • What Wilshere might tweak from here • Why Jack Wilshere seeing it first hand could be a blessing in disguise. It might have been much ado about nothing, but the bigger picture might be the most important part. Let us know in the comments: did the 0–0 tell you something deeper about this Luton side? The boys then finish the podcast by reflecting on where the Hatters are at the conclusion of the first third of the campaign. All this on the longest-running, award-winning Luton Town podcast!

Ollie reacts to FIVE unbeaten! This time, Rotherham RFC came to Town.

The lads meet up for their weekly catch up and talk all things Luton Town! -------------------------------------------- V I D E O S T O W A T C H N E X T :

The Hatters return home as Jack Wilshere's Luton side prepare to face in-form Rotherham United at Kenilworth Road. Kev is joined once again by The Lutonian journalist James Cunliffe and Town fan Dan Barratt-Davis to preview another huge League One clash. The lads discuss: ⚽ Rotherham's resurgence

This week Jordan & Gaz are joined by former Bolton, Bristol City, Preston, Rotherham, Accrington, Mansfield, Leyton Orient, Notts County, Crewe, Darlington & Ashton United fullback...NICKY HUNT! Nicky sits down with the boys in part one of his episode to discuss all things football from his time at Bolton Wanderers to his life now managing Daisy Hill FC. The lads start the pod by discussing Nicky's time at Bolton Wanderers, DJing for Ricardo Gardner, relaxing on Mario Kart with Gary Cahill & his wonder goal vs Liverpool Nicky then talks about his transition into being a football manager for Daisy Hill FC linking up with social media superstars Aaron Hunt & Angry Ginge to help take Daisy Hill through the leagues. Nicky and the lads then continue to chat about life in non-league, having to release players, huge squad sizes and other issues that come with the territory. They then chat about Nicky's early life in football from getting released at a young age and showing the determination to make it as a professional and getting caught on a night out and being suspended for two weeks by Bolton. The trio then discuss how tough reserve football used to be before Nicky made his first team debut and had the task of marking Ryan Giggs and then a young Cristiano Ronaldo. Finally they end the pod discussing why modern footballers can't do anything these days, the sacrifices Nicky had to make to become a pro and who were the defenders he looked up to in the Premier League.

Over 1,400 people are reported to have been killed by the initial quake and its aftershocks, with over 3,000 injured. While already living their lives under the restrictions imposed by the Taliban, how are women and girls affected by this disaster? Nuala McGovern talks to Mahjooba Nowrouzi, senior journalist for the BBC's Afghan Service.After the fall of the Taliban in 2001, Afghan women judges set out to reform the country, tackling corruption and presiding over cases such as violence against women and children. When Western forces withdrew four years ago, these judges were targeted by the Taliban and many fled Afghanistan. In her new book, The Escape from Kabul, the journalist Karen Bartlett tells the story of some of those women and how international judges from around the world banded together to help them escape. Karen joins Nuala along with Fawzia Amini, one of Afghanistan's leading judges and women's rights campaigners, who came to Britain with her husband and four daughters after the Taliban returned. Is navigating friendships and the pressure not to be too demanding making women lonely? Journalist Chante Joseph talks to Nuala about how adopting the role of a “low maintenance friend,” once a source of pride, ultimately left her feeling isolated along with the journalist Claire Cohen. Two councils in South Yorkshire are introducing new policies to make night-time venues safer for women.

She joins Nuala to talk about the themes of the play. Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Rebecca Myatt

Matt Trump fights through tech gremlins to deliver a powerful episode on the turmoil unfolding in England. From the migrant hotel battles in Epping to the haunting legacy of Rotherham's scandals, he traces how years of neglect and two-tier justice have fueled today's eruption of English patriotism. Revisiting the 2024 Southport stabbings and the government's heavy-handed crackdowns, Matt shows how frustration boiled over into riots, arrests, and now a peaceful wave of St. George's Cross flags spreading across the country. He connects these events to broader questions of national identity, sovereignty, and the deliberate humiliation of English heritage, weaving in history from the Battle of Agincourt to the cultural imprint of The Who. With reflections on faith, Shakespeare adaptations, and the genius of grassroots resistance, this episode captures the spirit of a nation rediscovering itself in defiance of its rulers.
