Jameela Jamil, Claudia Winkleman, Abortion buffer zones, Female Israel border soldiers
Claudia Winkleman on the new series of The Traitors. Why did warnings from young female Israeli border soldiers about Hamas鈥 deadly October 7 attack go unheard?
The actress Jameela Jamil talks to Emma Barnett about her crusade for gentle exercise and body positivity as well as her new strategy for how she communicates on social media. She鈥檚 become one of the internet鈥檚 most prominent activists holding the beauty industry and celebrity culture to account for their unrealistic ideals with her provocative online posts. Her outspoken views have led to widely publicised social media spats which she says have left her with the desire to post with more 鈥済race and empathy鈥. Best known for her role as Tahini in the Netflix series The Good Place she also hosts the podcast iWeigh which declares its 鈥渞adical inclusivity鈥 agenda where guests talk about what they 鈥渨eigh鈥 or value in life as opposed to their physical weight.
New draft guidance from the Home Office appears to water down previously voted on laws about Safe Access Zones around abortion clinics. To talk about what this could mean for women seeking an abortion, and why the changes might be made, Emma is joined by Jo Gideon, Conservative MP for Stoke-on-Trent Central and Louise McCudden from MSI Reproductive Choices.
They were known as Israel鈥檚 鈥渆yes on the border.鈥 These were female Israeli border soldiers - who raised concerns about suspicious Hamas activity on the Gaza border in the run up to the October 7 attack - but those concerns went unheard by higher ranking officers. Hamas killed at least 1,200 people in that attack and took about 240 hostages. Since then, more than 23,000 civilians have been killed in the Israeli bombardment that followed, according to the Hamas-run health ministry. Emma discusses with the 大象传媒鈥檚 Alice Cuddy who reported on these soldiers and Mary Ann Sieghart, the journalist and author of 鈥淭he Authority Gap: Why Women Are Still Taken Less Seriously Than Men and What We Can Do About it鈥
The Traitors is back, we鈥檙e a few episodes into this second series of the hit reality TV show and things are hotting up at the Scottish castle, where a bunch of strangers are divided into traitors and 鈥楩aithful鈥 then compete to win up to 拢120,000.聽 Claudia Winkleman is the host who hand picks the traitors.聽 She joins Emma.
