France's far right leader Marine le Pen has come out fighting after a court blocked her from running for President in two years, following her conviction for embezzlement. We hear reaction from her party, plus analysis of what this means for French politics.Also in the programme: the UN's humanitarian chief says he wants answers and justice after fifteen Palestinian medics and aid workers are killed by Israeli forces in Gaza; and as news emerges of Sudan's National Museum being ransacked by retreating forces, we hear from a senior curator.(IMAGE: President of the far-right Rassemblement National (RN) parliamentary group Marine Le Pen poses prior to an interview on the evening news broadcast of French TV channel TF1, in Boulogne-Billancourt, outside Paris, France, 31 March 2025 / CREDIT: THOMAS SAMSON/POOL/EPA-EFE/REX/Shutterstock)
Marine Le Pen has been barred from running for public office for five years, meaning she would not be able to run in the 2027 French presidential election. Also on the programme, the military authorities in Myanmar say more than two-thousand people are now known to have been killed by Friday's earthquake, but the final figure is likely to be higher; and a look at the young tennis player who defeated Novak Djokovic.(Photo: French far-right leader Marine Le Pen, member of parliament of the Rassemblement National (National Rally - RN) party, looks on as she arrives for the verdict of her trial alongside 24 other defendants (party officials and employees, former lawmakers and parliamentary assistants) and the RN party itself, over accusations of misappropriation of European Union funds, at the courthouse in Paris, France, March 31, 2025.

Bad news for France's National Rally party as leader Marine Le Pen's been barred from running for office for five years. She's been found guilty of embezzling European Union Funds to finance the party. Le Pen will be ineligible to run in the 2027 presidential election. Paris Correspondent Catherine Field told Mike Hosking there's no one else in the party with the energy to run a successful campaign. She says voters are voting for her, as all the far-right parties have a clan at the centre of them. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The value of surrounding oneself with a strong support system. Who are the key people in your support system and how have they helped you achieve your goals?" Betty Collins discusses the profound lessons she learned from running for city council and what it means to lose an election. Her reflections are not just about politics but about the broader themes of personal growth, resilience, and the importance of building a strong support system. Here, we expand on the key points discussed in the episode, providing insights that apply to various facets of life. Timing and Flexibility: Embracing the Unexpected One of the primary lessons Betty emphasizes is the crucial role of timing and flexibility. In both life and business, plans don't always go as expected. Betty's experience underscores the importance of being adaptable and ready to change course when unforeseen events occur. Building a Strong Support System Betty cannot overstate the significance of surrounding oneself with a capable team and trusted advisors. Running a campaign, much like running a business, requires the collaboration and expertise of many. From a committed campaign manager to a supportive inner circle, having the right people around is vital for navigating challenges and seizing opportunities. This principle holds true whether you are an entrepreneur, a corporate leader, or someone pursuing personal goals. Personal Branding and Self-Promotion Self-promotion and personal branding are recurring themes in Betty's narrative. In today's competitive environment, it's essential to clearly articulate your value and distinctiveness. Betty shares her experience of merging her smaller business into a larger one, highlighting how crucial it was to brand herself effectively. This journey taught her the immense value of a well-defined personal brand and the importance of deliberate messaging in professional and personal spheres. Quality Over Quantity: Meaningful Interactions Betty's husband played a pivotal role as her coach and motivator, teaching her the importance of engaging people genuinely. One of the standout lessons from her campaign is the significance of quality over quantity in interactions. It's not about how many people you can reach, but how meaningful and authentic those connections are. This approach not only deepened her engagements but also strengthened her relationship with her husband. The Value of Reflective Learning Betty reflects on the emotional and enlightening experience of running for office and even the poignant moment of voting for herself. While she may not have won the election, she emphasizes the learning and growth that came from the experience. Important lessons about tenacity, boldness, and the value of self-assessment are crucial takeaways that can be applied to any endeavor. Strategy and Execution: Beyond Hard Work One of the biggest realizations for Betty was that hard work alone isn't enough. Strategy and execution play a critical role in achieving success. Outworking and outspending competitors are factors that can make a considerable difference, underscoring the need for sufficient resources and strategic planning. This insight is especially relevant for those in competitive fields where the margin for error is slim. Handling Defeat Gracefully Betty's experience encapsulates the importance of handling defeat with grace. Losing an election or facing any setback can be disheartening, but what truly matters is how you rise from it. Betty encourages learning from every experience, making informed decisions for future pursuits, and maintaining a forward-looking perspective. Humility and Influence Betty's run for office was a humbling experience, revealing the nuances of influence within a larger community. It taught her the importance of expanding one's network and understanding different environments. Such humility and respect for diverse perspectives are crucial for personal and...

We discuss what it takes for citizens to take action and run for elected office. Wendy ran as a Democrat in Utah because she wanted to give voters a viable, different choice. She knew it was going to be difficult to win as a first time candidate, but she ran so hard that she left a body mark in the wall. She lost by a mere 78 votes. Her civic action toolkit recommendations are: 1. Vote and encourage other people to vote 2. Work or volunteer for a candidate during an election year Wendy Davis is a former candidate for Utah House of Representatives and the author of The Fight You Don't See – an honest memoir about her campaign.

In our latest episode, we interview Erin Loos Cutraro, the founder and CEO of She Should Run, a nonprofit dedicated to encouraging women to run for office - it's so needed! Did you know that women still hold less than 30% of all elected offices across the federal, state, and local level, and the numbers are even lower when looking at women from underrepresented communities? Black women comprise less than 6% of officeholders in Congress, statewide elective executive offices, and state legislatures; only 7.9% of all women state legislators identify as Latina; and, roughly 0.23 percent of U.S elected officials identify as LGBTQIA+. Women are still less likely than men to have thought about running for office or to express interest in running for office in the future. Women are less likely to have opted into leadership roles from a young age. In fact, few of us– less than 2%– grow up with the dream to run for office one day. There's lots of work to do!Before the interview, we chat about the movie American Fiction and how the Black American experience is portrayed in media.

What does it take to run for office. The average informed voter knows more than the average senator. They are not naïve, stop assigning good values to evil people. Believe them when they say they. Making enemies because you stand for something. Making the worst pizza in the world. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Allie Phillips, a young Tennessee woman who runs a daycare from home and has a young daughter, Adalie, was delighted to learn she was pregnant with a second daughter, Miley, in 2022. The same year, Tennessee enacted an abortion ban after the fall of Roe v Wade. Allie had no reason to believe this would affect her–but unfortunately it did. Miley was deemed “incompatible with life” at around 19 weeks, and Allie was faced with the decision many women must grapple with now that Roe has fallen: to leave the state to receive abortion care, or to continue her pregnancy as her daughter deteriorated, threatening Allie's life and fertility. She chose the former, and documented the difficult, time-sensitive process to her nearly 300,000 TikTok followers. She shared her story to put a face to the consequences of the overturn of Roe, and a little while after she returned to Tennessee, she decided to get involved politically. Her state representative was no help– Allie learned he hadn't considered cases like hers in banning abortion because he thought, shockingly, that only first pregnancies could have complications. She's now running for that very seat in the statehouse, and joins Next Question today to make her inspiring case for change.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
