French minister, Marlene Schiappa, appears on Playboy magazine cover

A French minister has come under fire after appearing on the cover of PlayBoy magazine.

Marlene Schiappa is the current Minister for the Social Economy and French Associations.

She appeared in the publication alongside a 12-page interview about women’s and LGBTQI+ rights.

She has long been an advocate in these areas and was appointed as the country’s first ever Gender Equality Minister in 2017.

During her time in this role, Schiappa successfully spearheaded a new sexual harassment law – allowing on the spot fines for men who catcall, harass or follow women on the street.

Her appearance on the cover of the raunchy publication has drawn criticism from political colleagues, including French Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne.

Borne told Schiappa it “wasn’t appropriate, especially during this period.”

France is currently in the midst of a social and political crisis triggered by President Macron’s desire to push ahead with pension reforms.

Does this mark a shift in Washington’s public approach to the war?

President Joe Biden is vowing to withhold weapons from Israel if the Jewish State goes forward with its invasion of Rafah.

The comments came after the Biden administration halted a recent shipment of bombs amid concerns over Israel’s plans to launch a full-scale assault on Rafah even as cease-fire talks continue with Hamas.

Jonathan Tobin, the Editor-in-Chief of Jewish News Syndicate, joins Veronica Dudo to discuss.

What exactly is our gut microbiome and why is the gut known as the second brain?

Optimising physical and mental performance requires prioritising gut-health through nutrition, hydration, stress management, and sleep.

This process influences digestion, nutrient absorption, immune function, and mood regulation, ultimately enhancing overall well-being and performance in daily life.
