No-one can fail to notice how many statues of Great Men there are around London: stern politicians, military generals, imperial adventurers . . . But what about women? As shown by Juliet Rix in London's Statues of Women (SafeHaven Books, 2025), women are surprisingly well represented amongst London's statues. Recent years have seen new statues of Virginia Woolf in Richmond, Mary Wollstonecraft in Stoke Newington, even boxer Nicola Adams in Brent. But there are also groundbreaking statues commemorating the Black community, notably the two of Brixton resident Joy Battick on its railway station platforms. And you'll find historical figures from Florence Nightingale to Joan of Arc and Edith Cavell – as well as Twiggy. And how many ballet dancers are commemorated, and where? And which famous tennis player was the unlikely model for the young girl with dolphin by Tower Bridge? This is a book that really will make you see London in a new way. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Undoubtedly the Nepal Heritage Recovery Campaign has been a success. In less than five years it has led the identification and return to Nepal of about 160 religious icons — statues, paintings, and more. These were stolen from this country and displayed or stored in public museums and private collections globally since Nepal opened to the world in the 1950s. Now what? The aim of the NHRC is to have these gods and goddesses (devi-devta in Nepali) returned to their communities, we learn in today's chat with Alisha Sijapati, a founding member and former director of the campaign. Some have made that journey, such as the Lakshmi-Narayan statue taken from Patko Tole in Patan in 1984, but most have not. Blocking their way is a lack of resources and underpinning that, an absence of understanding of the importance of heritage to the health of this country, she adds. Today's episode is an update to our conversation in October 2021 with NHRC member Rohan Mishra, titled Recovering Nepal's Stolen Art and Restoring its Culture. I encourage you to search for it wherever you're listening now.

In this conversation, JT discusses themes of independence, community, and the symbolism of the Statue of Liberty, exploring its implications in American culture and beyond. He delves into the global presence of liberty statues and their meanings, while also addressing the intersection of faith and politics, particularly in relation to eschatology and its real-world consequences. The discussion emphasizes the importance of understanding the implications of one's beliefs and actions in a broader societal context. In this conversation, JT discusses various themes related to Christianity, including the misuse of scripture in politics, the importance of fellowship among believers, and the mysteries surrounding resurrection as depicted in biblical texts.

Local elections are less than four months away now, and nominations officially opened today. But with four races in Wellington with hot favourites, are we less excited than we have been in previous years? Also, Wellington Central MP Tamatha Paul wants some of the city's statues pulled down, including the William Wakefield monument on the bank of the Basin Reserve, claiming we shouldn't have statues of "thieving criminal colonisers". Is she right? To answer those questions, PSA National Secretary Fleur Fitzsimons and Wellington City Councillor Nicola Young joined Nick Mills for Friday Faceoff.

Louise : Je suis allée voir le musée de statues de cire avec des célébrités, et franchement certaines sont vraiment impressionnantes.Julien : Ah ouais ? J'ai toujours trouvé ça un peu flippant, surtout quand elles sont trop réalistes. Ça me met mal à l'aise !Louise : Ah bah c'est sûr que parfois, t'as l'impression que ta star préférée te regarde dans les yeux et qu'elle va se mettre à bouger !Julien : Ouais, t'as moyen de faire des super photos par contre !

OPINION Well, we've got a new idea from Wellington Central MP Tamatha Paul and you better brace yourself for this one. She was in the paper over the weekend - not advocating for Wellingtonians, for our economy, our businesses or our vulnerable people. She's advocating for something else entirely. She wants to strip prominent statues around Wellington of their heritage status. She wants these statues bowled. She wants to strip Wellington of its history. Now I can tell you Tamtha's got her sights firmly on the William Wakefield monument at the Basin Reserve. You know the one; the white Greek dome on the bank. She also wants to get rid of the bronze bust of Edward Wakefield on Mount Victoria. She also doesn't like the Queen Victoria statue between Cambridge and Kent Terrace. These three people are, according to our local MP, “thieving criminal colonisers". This is the most ridiculous thing I have heard coming out of Tamatha Paul's mouth, and remember, she's the Green MP who wants to defund the police. Imagine what's going to come out of Tamatha Paul's mouth next. I can guarantee you it'll be nothing about Wellington's struggles. Remember she's not your average Green MP who is elected on the party list. She is Wellington Central's local MP, elected by the people of the city. Why is our local MP focused on something like this? Now looking at what she wants to do here, it'll be a difficult feat for Tamatha to pull off. She'd have to pass an amendment to the Resource Management Act the same way Chris Bishop removed the heritage status from the Gordon Wilson flats, paving the way for the building's demolition. She'd have to persuade a majority of her fellow MPs to vote for her amendment, something that is not likely to happen. But that aside, why is she even talking about this? I wonder how she would feel if we talked about pulling down the statues of some of the more controversial Maori leaders? Questionable history isn't limited to just colonial leaders. I think we can all appreciate that times were different in the 1800s. The conduct of some people we have statues of are far from acceptable. But it's our history. Should we just forget about it? Should we actively destroy it? At a time when we're trying to rebuild Wellington and our economy, should our local MP be looking at doing something so destructive as to pull down parts of our history? I personally love the statue of Queen Victoria on Cambridge and Kent Terraces, and I want the opportunity for us to have a piece of history that we can celebrate. And remember these memorials were created by previous generations of Wellingtonians. I can't even believe that we are talking about something so important to our history as the capital city. I think Tamatha Paul is way off the mark here, and it would be a slight on our history to get rid of things we should be celebrating. We need as a city more of our history to celebrate rather than denigrate. And I say to our local MP, sit down, maybe meet with some Wellington leaders, people in businesses or our charities. Get an idea from them about the real issues. I can guarantee you none of them care about a few statues. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Perdue au milieu de l'océan Pacifique, l'île de Pâques, aussi appelée Rapa Nui, est aujourd'hui assaillie par le plastique : des résidus de bidons, des bouées, des cordes, des bouchons en plastique, mais surtout des millions de microparticules de plastique fragmentées par le brassage en mer. Situé en plein dans le gyre du Pacifique Sud, un puissant courant tourbillonnant, ce petit territoire chilien voit s'échouer sur ses côtes 500 déchets par heure. Ils viennent du continent, mais aussi des bateaux qui pêchent en grandes quantités dans la zone. Également connue pour ses moai, Rapa Nui accueille chaque année des milliers de touristes qui génèrent eux aussi des tonnes de déchets. «À l'île de Pâques, des statues mythiques aux tourbillons de déchets plastiques», un Grand reportage de Naila Derroisné.

A book full of meaningful insights into what it means to think of the mind of God... or some confusing bullshit that made people feel smart by buying a scroll instead of giving a hungry guy some food. Oh yeah, just the fact they bought the scroll that the bible is based on pisses me off now. This is how militant atheism starts!The writers of Daniel pretended to foretell the future. And Christians today pretend they were talking about people they weren't. That's it! Website - https://www.biblestoriesforatheists.comYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@bibleatheists

This fiery segment exposes a week of radical shifts—from NYC replacing a Jefferson statue with symbolic art, to a foiled bomb plot by a Trump-deported pedophile, to the Biden-backed Gaza pier sparking outrage. Plus, a deep dive into how U.S. visas are allegedly being used to bring Hamas-aligned activists onto college campuses. The host connects global chaos, media silence, and government complicity in a battle for America's future.
Across two explosive broadcasts, the host lays out a sweeping narrative of cultural erasure, unchecked immigration, and growing radical influence. From the removal of Thomas Jefferson's statue to a foiled terror plot in Brazil, to U.S. college campuses allegedly harboring Hamas sympathizers via student visas, these segments argue that America is under assault—culturally, politically, and ideologically—from within.
