Ep.199 - Abolish The Monarchy
On Ep.199 of WG: Kwame Ture, Windrush Scandal update, do the police actually solve crime? And the case for abolishing the Monarchy.
In a week where:
- Roger Federer announces retirement from Tennis.
- Queen's Funeral happened.
- Hurricane Fiona makes landfall in Puerto Rico.
- Las Vegas Aces win the WNBA Championship.
- Adnan Syed will be released after his murder conviction is vacated.
In Politics: (6:02) Kwame Ture, fka Stokely Carmichael, was a big supporter of the UK Black Power movement back in the day; and whilst we could've guessed this, it's now been found that the UK government had a secret unit to weaken the movement.
In the 1st of three Society segments: (18:50) The Windrush Scandal continues to elongate as only 1% of claimants have a successful appeal. But why are the people that committed the crime, deciding the compensation?
In the 2nd Society segment: (29:55) Another word on policing as a whole, where we ask the question, do the police actually succeed in their job? Which is to solve crimes?
Finally, in the 3rd segment: (49:59) With The Queen now laid to rest, WE CAN FINALLY HAVE THE CONVERSATION ABOUT ABOLISHING THE MONARCHY!
