Do we have a cultural problem when it comes to teaching boys about sexual violence? The Labour government certainly thinks so with its new strategy.
Home Office minister and former podcaster Jess Phillips tells Beth in this episode why the strategy has taken so long and how she's changing the focus towards prevention.
But will their new approach work? Can we just rely on teachers to step in and keep women and girls safe? Beth, Ruth and Harriet discuss their responsibilities as parents of boys when it comes to talking about what they see online.
Also, who is on top in politics at the end of 2025? The ladies give Kemi Badenoch her flowers and Ruth gives a surprise answer on who is going to have a very good 2026.
This episode includes discussions of sexual violence. The Rape Crisis offers help and advice.
