14:30||Ep. 465Welcome back to another Friday special. This week's bonus episode features an interview with campaigner Zelda Perkins, a former assistant to Harvey Weinstein, originally broadcast on our Times Radio afternoon show (2–4 pm, Monday to Thursday). Zelda was the first woman to break a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) in 2017—an agreement she had signed decades earlier with Harvey Weinstein. She brought the systematic abuse of NDAs to the attention of the British Government and international press, giving evidence at two parliamentary inquiries that uncovered an epidemic of misuse. Her testimony also prompted the Solicitors Regulation Authority to take disciplinary action against the lawyer who had drafted the NDA for Weinstein. Since 2017, Zelda has been campaigning for legislative and regulatory reform in the UK. In September 2021, she co-launched the global campaign Can’t Buy My Silence with Canadian co-founder, Professor Julie Macfarlane.
