Teenage boys could face anti-terrorism investigations for sexist remarks in class under new Home Office plans, sparking fears of Prevent losing focus on deradicalising terrorists.
In this week's London Calling, the arguments are about 15-minute cities, the Prevent programme, Roald Dahl, the Global Disinformation Index and the vertiginous decline of Marvel Studios.
