Arlene Foster, french women and high heels
Former DUP leader Arlene Foster on a return to devolution in Northern Ireland.
Former Northern Ireland First Minister and DUP leader Arlene Foster joins the programme to talk about a return to devolution in Northern Ireland and the fourth anniversary of Brexit.
Author Fiona Williams is out with her debut novel, The House of Broken Bricks. She joins Emma to talk about the ways in which the book relates to her real life in terms of navigating issues of race and belonging, and why she wanted to write a story so intertwined with nature.
Thames Valley Police has referred itself to the policing regulator after a 大象传媒 investigation revealed that officers ridiculed an assault victim while watching body-worn video that showed her groin. Emma speaks with the 大象传媒's Noel Titheradge about his investigation as well as Harriet Wistrich about misogyny in the UK police force.
It鈥檚 out with heels and in with trainers. That鈥檚 what is happening in France where, according to a poll, women are falling out of love with high heels - instead going for a chunky boot or comfortable trainer. To discuss this fashion shift, Emma is joined by Professor of Fashion History Dr Serena Dyer and French shoe designer Marie Laffont.
