England women’s football team are through to the semi-finals of the World Cup. Ahead of the game on Tuesday evening we discuss their chances of winning the competition and the blossoming global love for the women’s game with Sunday Times sports journalist, Rebecca Myers and Patricia Gregory, who worked for BBC Sport and was one of the founders of the Women's Football Association.

TUC research found that more than 52% of women – and nearly seven out of ten LGBT people – have experienced sexual harassment at work. Currently there is no duty on UK employers to prevent sexual harassment. A new campaign seeks to close the gap in the law that allows too many workplaces to treat such abuse as a sad inevitability. ‘This is not working’ is supported by unions, women’s rights organisations and charities. We hear from an anonymous case study and Nicola Smith, Head of Equality for the TUC joins Jane Garvey.

She answers these questions and responds to listeners’ emails about their own experience.
