Beyond The Street Lights: Why We're Still Not Safe

In 2021, the names Sarah Everard and Sabina Nessa became catalysts for a national outcry. The promise from those in power was clear: "Never again." But five years on, has the landscape truly shifted, or has the collective rage simply been quieted?
In this episode of After Hours, we peel back the layers of the "watershed moment" that wasn't. We discuss:
The Reality Check: Why VAWG (Violence Against Women and Girls) still accounts for 20% of all recorded crime.
Policy vs. Practice: Analyzing the 2021 Domestic Abuse Act and why "better street lighting" was never the answer.
The Trust Gap: The ongoing crisis of confidence in the institutions meant to protect us.
It’s a heavy conversation for a dark night, but one we can’t afford to stop having.
