  We Need To Talk - The truth...

  'As inspiring as it is enraging, Emily Hunt turns trauma into action, exposing a criminal justice system that fails women, and a culture that enables violence against us. A rallying call for change, and a powerful lesson in perseverance from a woman who would not give up.' The Guardian 
  Emily was in a restaurant, having lunch with her father – the next thing she remembers is waking up, naked, in a strange hotel room, next to a man she did not know. She suspected she had been drugged and raped. She later found out she had been filmed without her consent. 
  What happened to her that night could have happened to anyone. What came next happens to far too many victims, as failures by the police, CPS and other parts of the system, led to Emily doubting she would ever find justice. 
  Six years after her attack, Emily is an adviser to the UK Government on sexual violence. Part memoir and part investigation, Emily shines a light on the fault lines of a system and a society that is failing rape victims. We Need To Talk looks at how rape is a mainstream, everyday problem deeply damaging victims, their families, their workplaces and the economy. 
  This is a conversation starter about why we don’t talk about rape; that the only cause of rape is rapists, not rape victims; who commits rape and why; the reasons why society defaults to blaming the victim; and ultimately how we need to change and humanise the way we talk about rape in order to truly hear and support victims and end the current epidemic of sexual violence.

  Nefertiti - The Beautiful Queen...

  Nefertiti, one of ancient Egypt’s most captivating and influential queens, remains a figure shrouded in mystery and intrigue. Her name, meaning “the beautiful one has come,” hints at her exotic origins, though little is known for certain about her early life. Some historians believe she was a member of the Egyptian nobility, possibly the daughter of Ay, a prominent official. Others suggest foreign origins, potentially linking her to Mitanni royalty. Regardless of her birthplace, Nefertiti’s remarkable journey from obscurity to queenhood is a testament to her enduring legacy. 
  Nefertiti’s life took a dramatic turn when she married Amenhotep IV, later known as Akhenaten. Their union marked the beginning of one of ancient Egypt’s most transformative periods. As Akhenaten’s Great Royal Wife, Nefertiti played a central role in the royal family, often depicted alongside her husband in scenes of worship and domestic life. Their partnership appeared to be one of both love and power, as Nefertiti is shown participating actively in religious ceremonies and royal duties, signifying her status as more than just a consort. 
  Upon ascending to the throne, Akhenaten and Nefertiti initiated radical religious changes, abandoning traditional polytheism in favor of the monotheistic worship of Aten, the sun disk. This religious revolution, known as the Amarna Period, saw the couple establish a new capital, Akhetaten, modern-day Amarna. Nefertiti’s involvement in this spiritual shift was profound, as she was frequently depicted alongside Akhenaten, worshiping Aten with equal devotion. She became a symbol of the new religious order, embodying divine femininity and royal authority.

  This program is read by the author.In his forceful follow-up to Moneyland, Oliver Bullough unravels the dark secret of how Britain placed itself at the center of the global offshore economy and at the service of the worst people in the world.The Suez Crisis of 1956 was the nadir of Britain's twentieth century, the moment when the once-superpower was bullied into retreat. "Great Britain has lost an empire and not yet found a role," said Dean Acherson, a former US secretary of state. Acheson's line has entered into the canon of great quotations: but it was wrong. Britain had already found a role. The leaders of the world just hadn't noticed it yet.Butler to the World reveals how Britain came to assume its role as the center of the offshore economy. Written polemically, but studded with witty references to the butlers of popular fiction, it demonstrates how so many elements of modern Britain have been put at the service of the world's oligarchs.The Biden administration is putting corruption at the heart of its foreign policy, and that means it needs to confront Britain's role as the foremost enabler of financial crime and ill behavior. This audiobook lays bare how London has deliberately undercut U.S. regulations for decades, and calls into question the extent to which Britain can be considered a reliable ally.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin's Press
