200+ years. 8 generations. One Southampton story. 👞
For English Tourism Week, we’re celebrating the local stories that shape our city—like W.J. French & Son in Bedford Place. 📍
Family-run since 1803, this independent shoe shop has been part of Southampton life for over two centuries, built on expert fittings, craftsmanship, and genuinely caring about every customer who walks through the door. 👟👢
Now led by Caroline French—the first female owner—the business continues to evolve, with modern updates and the next generation already getting involved.
It’s businesses like this that give Southampton its character and keep people coming back. ❤️

![Nama Wakil Presiden Gibran Rakabuming Raka tidak disebut di antara pejabat yang menjadi sasaran dugaan penyadapan mantan Kapolri Listyo Sigit Prabowo bersama Irjen Ahrie Sonta Nasution dan Irjen Eko Hadi Santoso. Menko Kumham Imipas Yusril Ihza Mahendra, dalam konferensi pers Selasa (3/11/2026), menyebut pihak yang diduga disadap meliputi Presiden Prabowo Subianto, para menteri, politisi, serta pengusaha, sebagaimana diberitakan Tirto.id. “Jadi saya belum tahu apakah Bapak Wakil Presiden juga ikut disadap atau tidak,” ujar Yusril, yang juga menyebut bukti-bukti sudah dikumpulkan.
Bareskrim Polri telah menetapkan ketiganya sebagai tersangka dugaan penyadapan ilegal, penghapusan data elektronik, dan akses ilegal, sementara mantan Kadiv TIK Polri Irjen Slamet Uliandi masih diperiksa sebagai saksi. Menurut Kabareskrim Komjen Asep Safrudin, sepanjang 2025–2026 ketiganya diduga menginstruksikan penyadapan yang tidak sesuai prosedur dengan memasukkan sejumlah nomor ke sistem Lawful Interception tanpa verifikasi dan tanpa kaitan dengan penegakan hukum. Sekitar Oktober 2026, salah satu tersangka diduga memerintahkan penghapusan file hasil penyadapan, hingga seorang petugas melapor ke polisi pada 30 Oktober 2026. Polisi telah memeriksa 10 saksi dan 3 ahli serta menyita 11 ponsel, 1 iPad, dan 42 flashdisk. Hingga kini, Yusril belum dapat memastikan apakah Gibran termasuk pihak yang disadap.
