thank you. agreement there. about. thank you. agreement there. if the leaders could get some agreement on this that would be great. the japan times, an absolutely horrible story focusing on india. yet another death of a young woman following a gang rape and once again we are seeing just the outrage, the anger on the streets with this just desperate, desperate situation, sienna. yeah, this isjust desperate situation, sienna. yeah, this is just about the grimmest story that you can read, to be honest. this is a problem everywhere, sexual violence not being taken everywhere, sexual violence not being ta ken seriously. everywhere, sexual violence not being taken seriously. rate epidemics, male violence against women, but this is the most extreme version that you can imagine. this story is about a 19—year—old woman who is from the lowest caste in india and she was cutting grass to feed families five milk buffalo, according to her brother, when she was dragged out of a field and gang raped and mutilated by a higher
10:46 pm
caste men and she has now died of her injuries in hospital in new delhi, so it is horrible and clearly there is a huge problem in india and it doesn't seem as if it has been tackled, even though there have been repeated warnings about this. there is measures being in place, but yes, once again we are reading this, loads of outrage on the streets. let's move to the daily mirror and this is an interview with george floyd's sister, of course the man who was killed in the united states by a white police officer. she isjust basically urging the united states, olivia, for them to not vote in donald trump. yeah, it looks like we can only see a little bit on the front page here, but it looks like a moving interview with george floyd's sister. i don't think it will come as much of a surprise to anyone that she is urging americans not to vote for donald trump. i think the people who went on black lives matter
10:47 pm
marches in america were probably going to vote democrat anyway and will be moved by her words, but i don't think that george floyd's sister coming out in favour ofjoe biden is going to sway the election, but it is an important and moving interview, and is it is done well by the mirror, i think. yes, interview, and is it is done well by the mirror, ithink. yes, and i wonder, sienna, if you would just like to share your opinion as well because there is quite in—depth, very moving pictures and we heard the really moving testimony during the really moving testimony during the funeral about what he was like asa the funeral about what he was like as a brother and how much he loved his family and this is just reminding us during such a heated period in the united states as to what is happening there. yes, absolutely and we saw black lives matter protests in the uk as well, but obviously this is such a news heavy time with coronavirus impacting people's lives, the economic measures that are unprecedented, the restrictions, the local lockdown. all of this, there
10:48 pm
is so much going on that we can't have this be lost in the uk, basically, so i think the next story relates to this as well, the fact that there is structural racism in the us and the uk and that can't be forgotten and it must shape our politics, this kind of realisation that george floyd's death really hit home for a lot of people that this happening on the street, black men being murdered by police, is extraordinary and it can't be forgotten. yes, elegantly done there, just leading us into the daily mail. it is harry and megan, the no longer royal couple, i guess you would say —— mcginn. they are accusing of structural racism. the daily mail describes this as another productive intervention and they highlighted on the page that they are saying this from £1 million mansion, olivia. yes, exactly i think this will probably rub quite a lot of people up the wrong way. the
10:49 pm
point is fair enough, but harry and meghan lecturing british people when they decided that britain wasn't good enough for them and they wanted their la mansion doesn't sit very well and if we are talking about tackling structural racism, then should we talk about tackling structural class issues in the uk, which is also a big problem and harry and meghan are also feeding into a little bit? so yes, i am not sure if their lectures and preachings from far away in la are going to go down particularly well with the british public or really change anyone‘s mines. i'm not really sure who they're talking to him. they have announced their royal titles, so they are just a couple of celebrities and —— they have renounced their royal titles. i'm not quite sure who they're talking to him. but sienna, if they felt they couldn't live here and meghan especially hounded by the press, if they felt they couldn't live here and they want to speak up, do they not have the right to? yeah, they absolutely have the right to and of course the daily mail is going to
10:50 pm
cover their interventions in this way with a bit of outrage if they talk about structural racism in the uk or they talk about politics in terms of the us. they were talking about basically urging people not to vote donald trump in the upcoming elections. all that is very understandable. i think olivia is right that it will rub some people up right that it will rub some people up the wrong way because they are a bit of a smug, irritating couple, to honest, but of course meghan has experienced racism herself. we saw it out here, so of course she is going to talk about racism. she is a woman because of mixed heritage, she has that experience that she's going to talk about it and that is quite right. but don't you thinkjust the fa ct right. but don't you thinkjust the fact that they are highlighting this mansion, it is expensive, of course it is, but the fact that that is on the front page of the daily mail, it is quite productive, they are being provocative, aren't they? know, i don't think so particularly because megan and harry —— meghan are
10:51 pm
wealthy because they were born into their health wealth and privilege or harry was, and that is where they got theirfeign harry was, and that is where they got their feign from and that is where it's as relevant. in the same way if it was an actor or a cheese mugger making a statement, they would say so and so, cheese person, they are saying rich people, they say this, that is their claim to fame is of course it is going to stick with them whatever they say. i agree that meghan had a right, of course they have a right to say whatever they like. they are living ina whatever they like. they are living in a free country and we are living ina in a free country and we are living in a free country and we are living in a free country and fair enough they can say it, i'm just saying i'm not really sure who is listening.|j can't imagine them ever being cheese mongers, but i love the image! thank you so much for the time being, sienna and olivia, really great to have you on, we will get you back onto the next edition of the papers. tweet us that he would like to get involved.
