Military Sexism, Terror Attacks and Integrated Review

BFBS Radio Sitrep - Een podcast door BFBS Radio - Donderdagen

The MoD says the military has “changed enormously” — but while women make up around 1-in-10 Army personnel — some say they face a “hostile environment” if they complain about bullying or harassment. As MPs start to look at issues around sexism in the military, we speak to one campaigner who says action is needed. We look at a new report that says deaths in terrorist attacks rose sharply last year, even though the number of attacks fell — and we hear about the most likely future threats. Why are so many veterans from Commonwealth countries struggling to secure the right to stay in the UK? An England rugby star tells us about his father’s experience. And we look ahead to the publication of the integrated review of defence, foreign affairs and security, and find out what to look out for.
