Today's Video Focus: Laura Bates founded the Everyday Sexism project in 2012, long before the
Me Too movement gained traction. It was a space where women could share
their stories of sexual assault and highlight how normalised it had
become. She talks to Krishnan about where the feminist movement is
post-Me Too, why she reluctantly thinks gender quotas in the workplace
are necessary and how we should be talking about sex and harassment in
schools.
Focus of the Day Article:
Prosecutors and police are failing to investigate thousands of cases including fraud, rape and modern slavery efficiently because the required skills and resources are critically low, the outgoing director of public prosecutions has said in a newspaper interview that has sparked widespread anger.
