In this episode, Labour MP Louise Haigh joins Kirsty Buchanan, Jo Tanner, and Calum Macdonald to unpack her recent legislative victory: a groundbreaking new ban on non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) used to silence victims and witnesses of workplace harassment and discrimination.

We cover:

• 🔒 Why NDAs are no longer enforceable in harassment or discrimination cases
• 💥 How a former Weinstein assistant helped kickstart a global movement
• 🧑‍⚖️ What this change means for UK employment law and workplace culture
• 🗣️ Louise’s reflections on being more effective outside government
• 🛠️ What’s next: retrospective reform, implementation risks, and holding firms accountable

Louise also reflects on the first year of Labour in power—praising key reforms but warning of a missing "thread" tying decisions together.
