Broadcast overview
An AI-generated overview based on this broadcast's transcript.
The government has launched a national task force to tackle misogyny across society, made up of women's organisations, educators, local leaders and ministers. It aims to find and root out harmful attitudes online, in workplaces and within communities, as part of Labour's pledge to halve violence against women and girls within a decade. Earl Spencer, Princess Diana's brother, has spoken out about media treatment of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, describing press coverage of their lives as a cancerous influence and likening it to that of his late sister. He also accused the King of gaslighting him after claims he made about Charles in a new memoir following Princess Diana's death.
Ed Sheeran apologised to fans for making mistakes as he took to the stage in Philadelphia last night. This followed backlash after rapper Macklemore was dropped from his tour for making pro-Palestinian remarks on stage, and the singer's remaining supporting acts then quit in protest. Police are treating a fire at the historic Grand Burstin hotel in Folkestone as suspicious. The fire caused damage and may have weakened the hotel structure, and it is thought to have begun in the basement in the early hours of Saturday morning.
Hollywood attended the opening of Star Wars creator George Lucas's new museum in Los Angeles last night. The Museum of Narrative Art, 17 years in the making, will feature thousands of classic props and costumes.
