On BBC2 shortly after noon to discuss the latest current events.
Jo Coburn is imo a better presenter than Andrew Neill, outgoing host who used to alternate with Jo. But the show excluding the presenter always has a numerical bias of the 4 guests towards women! The other day when the main topic was war in Ukraine of which men have a greater grasp of military affairs, all 4 guests were women!! There doesn't always need to be a 50-50 split. Don't mind if its 3-1 in one genders favourite from time to time. But this ratio is never in the mens favour! Surely all male politicians and hangers on should boycott this show under the terms of the Equality Act!

That’s an awful sexist statement there Tiptoes, however,😂😂😂 speaking purely on the ratio aspect I totally agree, 50/50 it should be unless the topic is more relevant to one sex or the other. |

www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/ex-hartlepool-mp-mike-hill-27013076Ex Labour MP Mike Hill has been ordered to pay more than £434,000 to a parliamentary worker he sexually assaulted, harassed and victimised. A tribunal in July last year found the former Hartlepool MP targeted the woman, known as Ms A, over a 16-month period after she rejected his sexual advances. The compensation awarded to Ms A includes a total of £179,270 for loss of earnings and pension, £44,000 for injury to feelings, £27,000 for personal injury and £12,500 aggravated damages. Ms A will also receive £5,550 to pay for therapy she had for PTSD and depression and £8,500 to cover the cost of her retraining as a florist, her lawyers said. Ms A's lawyer Suzanne McKie QC said her client was "delighted" with the outcome of the case.
I bet she was. Talk about easy money. It's not like she had been his Parliamentary worker since time immemorial. He'd only been MP for 5 minutes. If the erstwhile MP had sexually assaulted this woman there should be a criminal enquiry by the police. Anyway she seems to have struck gold financially assuming her ex employer doesn't have to take out bankruptcy proceedings.
