In this episode, independent journalist, Nargess Moballeghi and our chief editor, Salim Kassam, join our deputy editor, Afrah Mansour to discuss the following key points:

Britain’s counter terrorist policy, Prevent, and if it’s working in the current political climate.

The United Nation making Wonder Woman the gender equality ambassador.

The ethics of looking after our elderly, and if we’re failing to do so in our communities.
