OPINION - Genevieve Chenneour is bang on— women in London are afraid for their safety

Bridgerton star Genevieve Chenneour was simply minding her own business when she was attacked by an 18-year-old man who attempted to steal her iPhone. Terrible. And where did this happen? Kensington. Joe & the Juice. Broad daylight. You might have thought we were safe whilst sipping upmarket smoothies in the posher parts of West London – but it appears we are not.

Chenneour wasn’t wrong when she told LBC today “almost every woman feels on edge in London”. In fact, she was bang on. Nearly 60 percent of us women feel unsafe in London.
