6/9/202654 min
Ian Dunt on the continued fallout over the death of 18 year old Southampton University student Henry Nowak. In the US, a radical movement known as ‘masculinism’ wants to repel the advances of feminism. And this weekend (June 14), Switzerland will vote on a referendum proposal to cap its population at 10 million. But it remains unclear how such a “cap” would work, particularly in a nation with large companies that rely on skilled migrant labour.

[music] Welcome to Late Night Live coming to you from Gadigal Land. I'm Tracy Holmes, filling in for David Marr this week. US President Donald Trump is popular with younger men. They helped him return to the White House in 2024. Riding on the coattails of Trump's electoral success is a radical movement known as masculinism, railing against the advances of feminism, suggesting women are better off staying at home. Journalist for The Atlantic, Helen Lewis, interviewed some of the movement's leaders. She joins me later. We'll also head to Switzerland, where its citizens are preparing to vote on an unprecedented proposal to cap the nation's population
