  • Gisele Pelicot and France's MeToo moment

    Gisele Pelicot and France's MeToo moment
    Nov 22 2024
    Warning: This story contains references to sexual assault and rape.

    A woman’s decision to waive her anonymity and have a public trial after her husband drugged her and invited dozens of men to rape her over a decade has reignited the MeToo movement in France.

    Gisele Pelicot has become a feminist hero after insisting that the trial be held in public to raise awareness, saying: "It’s not for us to have shame, it’s for them."

    Niall is joined by our Europe correspondent Siobhan Robbins to explore how the 'trial of the century' has unfolded and speaks to writer and MeTooMedia ambassador Benedicte Martin about what it means for women in France.

  • The carer who was a fake

    The carer who was a fake
    Nov 21 2024
    What happens when the care you trust isn’t care at all?

    When Sarah Whitaker hired a live-in carer for her 89-year-old father, she thought she was securing a lifeline. What she got was a stranger who could not cook, drive, and care – because she wasn’t the carer Sarah had booked.

    This bizarre and troubling story takes us deep into the cracks of Britain’s care industry, where an unregulated system leaves families vulnerable to shocking deceptions.

    Sky’s Nick Martin investigates how one family was duped out of £2,000, how they found out, and what it says about the future of "home-first" care in the UK.

    He joins host Niall Paterson alongside Tim Wilson, board member of the Home Care Association and managing director of Assist Care Group, a regulated home care agency, to discuss what the industry needs to do to improve.

  • Why the inflation rise might not be as bad as you think

    Why the inflation rise might not be as bad as you think
    Nov 20 2024
    Rising energy prices pushed up inflation in October, meaning prices elsewhere will also rise.

    As businesses warn Labour's first budget could lead to further price rises and even job cuts, where does this leave Chancellor Rachel Reeves's plan for the UK to be the fastest growing economy in the G7?

    Niall Paterson is joined by Sky's economics and data editor Ed Conway, who explains what's behind last month's inflation rise and why he thinks there could be some good news on the horizon.

  • Is this the death of the family farm?

    Is this the death of the family farm?
    Nov 19 2024
    Farmers have left their fields for the streets of London to protest changes to the inheritance tax announced in the budget.

    On the Sky News Daily, Niall Paterson heads to the protest outside Downing Street to speak to the farmers who are threatening to withhold food supplies if their demands aren’t met.

    He also asks new farmer Jeremy Clarkson about why he thinks farmers should have inheritance tax relief.

    Plus, business correspondent Paul Kelso breaks down the figures to show exactly how many farmers could be affected.

  • Ukraine: Why is there talk of World War Three?

    Ukraine: Why is there talk of World War Three?
    Nov 18 2024
    As the conflict in Ukraine nears its 1,000th day, the war could be about to shift. President Joe Biden's approval for Ukraine to strike deep inside Russia with long-range US missiles has sparked fears of escalation, with fury in Moscow.

    Vladimir Putin has previously called the move "an unacceptable red line", as Western leaders, including Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer at the G20, weigh their next steps.

    Host Niall Paterson explores whether this moment marks a turning point for Ukraine, or the brink of something far worse.

    Ivor Bennett, our Moscow correspondent, and defence analyst and editor of The Defence Eye, Tim Ripley, join Niall to discuss if these missiles could change the course of the war.

  • Team Trump: 'Great minds' think alike - but can they run a country?

    Team Trump: 'Great minds' think alike - but can they run a country?
    Nov 15 2024
    Donald Trump has started to nominate who he wants in his top team.

    As well as billionaire Elon Musk, controversial Trump loyalist Matt Gaetz and nephew of former president JFK, Robert Kennedy Jr, are among the picks. Matt Gaetz is a Florida congressman and the attorney general pick for Trump.

    In February 2023, the Justice Department declined to bring charges of sex trafficking a 17-year-old against Gaetz, who has denied wrongdoing since the allegations first came to light.

    And as health secretary, Robert Kennedy Jr, or RFK Jr, is an anti-vaccine activist who has embraced a slew of other debunked health-related conspiracy theories, including the discredited theory that childhood immunisations cause autism.

    Our host Niall Paterson is joined by US correspondent James Matthews and Julie Tsirkin, NBC News congressional correspondent in Capitol Hill, Washington, to hear more about president-elect Trump's selections and why they aren't the most popular options.

  • Why is the ambulance service boss having to say sorry?

    Why is the ambulance service boss having to say sorry?
    Nov 14 2024
    A top ambulance boss has apologised after a year-long Sky News investigation revealed a culture of sexual abuse and harassment within the ambulance service.

    On the Sky News Daily, Niall Paterson speaks to Sky correspondent Rachael Venables who has been leading the investigation into abuse patients and staff in the service have faced and what is being done to restore trust in those who care for us.

    A spokesperson for NHS England said: “Any abuse or violence directed at NHS staff is totally unacceptable and will not be tolerated, and the NHS is committed to tackling unwanted, inappropriate or harmful sexual behaviour in the workplace. We have recently introduced new national guidance and training that will help staff recognise, report and act on sexual misconduct at work to stamp out this awful behaviour.”
