Is There a State of Emergency?

People are talking about the UK's fuel queues.

Driver shortages, an energy crisis and rising inflation... But are we really heading towards a new "Winter of Discontent" (like the one in 1978)? To find out, we’ve got the BBC’s political reporter from back in the day, Nick Jones.   And the killing of 28-year-old primary school teacher, Sabina Nessa, in south-east London, has reignited the conversation about women’s safety on the streets. Adam is joined by Her Majesty’s Inspector of Constabulary Zoë Billingham, and Janey Starling, co-director of the feminist organisation, Level Up, to discuss what more needs to be done to protect women from violence.   Today’s Newscast was made by Rick Kelsey with producers Georgia Coan and Alix Pickles. The studio director was Emma Crowe. Sam Bonham was the assistant editor.
