This podcast is genuinely extraordinary in exposing police practice in the UK around domestic abuse internally, i can't remember something quite so open about how broken the internal systems with the police are with actual testimony from people who've been a part of it.

Wife guy post: Eve has worked on this story for months, and done so with more journalistic integrity, kindness, and skill than I’ve ever seen. It is an exceptional piece of work and deserves the widest audience. Please read, listen, and share.

🧵 In February, I got a message from Anna*, a female police officer. She was a domestic abuse specialist, responding daily to calls from women abused by their partners. But she was also in an abusive marriage herself, for more than a decade - and her abuser was another officer.

Every year thousands of workers come from overseas to pick fruit and veg on UK farms. But an organisation who supports them says they’re not being paid for all the hours they work - and payslips they shared with me show the same. My story in tomorrow’s Observer www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

‘Exploited’ migrant farm workers in UK paid for picks, not hours

Call for investigation into unfair payment for labourers on seasonal visa scheme

EXC: “There’s a significant risk… [coercive control] will play a part in some cases of assisted dying” In tomorrow’s Observer, domestic abuse experts told me victims had been ignored in the assisted dying bill which could be “misused as a tool for femicide”: www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Domestic violence victims must be included in the assisted dying debate, campaigners say

Charities warn of ‘significant risk’ that victims of coercive control could be put under pressure to end their lives under assisted dying legislation

Had a great time in beautiful Padova last week discussing the state of public administration research and the role of administrative capacities with a stellar group of international colleagues. So many interesting perspectives and new research avenues ✨
