    238: Beyond yes and no: the concept of consent in law
    May 18 2026

    In this episode of LawPod UK, Lucy McCann is joined by Jasper Gold and Paula Kelly of 1 Crown Office Row to explore the concept of consent.

    The discussion ranges from philosophical theories of consent to informed consent in medical law after Montgomery, the limits of consent to harm in criminal law, and the role of deception in sexual offences. Along the way, the episode considers broader questions of autonomy, paternalism, and the different functions consent performs across modern law.

    237: “Humane-Washing”: the misinformation and misleading advertising about where our meat comes from.
    Apr 28 2026

    Rosalind English talks to animal law protection solicitor Edie Bowles of the Animal Law Foundation and Veronica Wiggins, who directs campaigns to protect consumers against misleading advertising. We explore the widespread and systemic misrepresentation of our food animals as leading happy healthy free range lives when in fact 85 % of animals are subject to inhumane conditions in factory farms. For a deeper dive into the whole problem of "humane washing" here is a recent study. Animal Law Foundation reports on animal welfare enforcement and other legal insights can be found here.
