A shocking poll found that over half of London women do not feel safe in the capital city. ITV News London conducted the Survation poll of 1,528 women and discovered that 57% of respondents do not feel safe on the city streets. Only 32% said they do. Nearly half said they have been followed or verbally harassed by a man, while a third said they’ve experienced physical or sexual assault, some more than once. The issue of women’s safety in London has gained traction over the last few years, especially after the murders of Sarah Everard and Zara Aleena, as well as sisters Nicole Smallman and Bibaa Henry. Mayor Sadiq Khan, who is Muslim, told ITV News London that every three days, a woman in London is killed at the hands of a man. “Across the globe it is every 10 minutes,” he said. “We’re doing our bit from City Hall, but we can’t do it ourselves. That’s why we are working really closely with the police, with the courts, with the CPS, with the judiciary, but also schools. It’s got to start from primary school.” Despite the government committing to halving violence against women within the next decade, 58% of poll respondents said they do not believe the mayor is doing enough on the issue, with only 26% saying better education for young boys would help. 51% said increasing the number of law enforcement officers would make them feel safer.  Jess Phillips, the Minister for Safeguarding and Violence Against Women and Girls, said the poll figures “saddened” her. “Every woman I know has been harassed at some point in their life,” she stated. When asked whether London has become more or less safe over the previous five years, 49% said it has become less safe while only 21% said it has become more safe. Ben Russel, the Met’s deputy assistant commissioner, said that the volume of violence against women and girls is the real challenge. “We are receiving thousands and thousands of reports every year. … We know we have got more to do to get to where we want to be. But it’s something that is important and we all recognise that,” he said.

“Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” star Mariska Hargitay revealed the huge gamble she took at her auditions for the gritty police procedural — and the fact that the whole scenario unfolded directly in front of series creator Dick Wolf. During an appearance on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast with host Alex Cooper, the 61-year-old actress confessed that she marched into her first interview and instructed Wolf to send another actress home: “This is my part.” Hargitay explained that, at the time, she hadn’t really grasped just how big Wolf was in the television industry — but she knew the risk was worth it after she read the script for the first time. “So I read it and I said, and I never had this experience, ‘I’ve never loved anything more. This is my show. This is the most progressive show I’ve ever seen. I love it. I need it. I have to do the show,’” she said, and with that in mind, she went for her second callback audition in front of Wolf — who had already earned a slew of nominations and one Emmy for the original “Law & Order” series between 1992 and 1998. “And then I had the audition and then I got a call back and on the second callback, Dick Wolf was there,” she said. “I see another girl in the waiting room and I’m like, ‘Oh no, this is not happening.’ So I walked in there and I said, ‘Listen to me.’ I didn’t know that Dick Wolf was like, king of television. And I go, ‘I don’t know who that is out there, but let me tell you something. This is my part.'” Wolf, she said, seemed more amused than anything else. “He’s like, ‘Oh, is it?’ And I said, ‘Yeah. So you tell her to go home.'” Once the audition was over, Wolf gave Hargitay his notes on her performance. “I’m like, ‘Those are good notes. Thank you.’ And he’s like, ‘Oh, are they, are they good notes?'” Hargitay landed the role of Olivia Benson on the long-running drama, which explores sex crimes in Manhattan — but she admitted that no one actually sent the other actress home that day, mainly because she wasn’t there to read for the same part. “Then it turns out that the beautiful, talented actress that was in the waiting room was there for another part. And she was in the pilot, and she’s a fantastic actor, actress. I was like, ‘Get her out of here.’ And of course, you know, we’re friends now for life,” Hargitay said, although she did not reveal the name of the actress in question.
