CALLS FOR UK GOVERNMENT TO TIGHTEN AV LAWSParliament's Transport Committee has released a report outlining the areas the Government needs to tighten up the law for autonomous vehicles, if it wants a safe deployment of the technology. Where it is asking for language to be less vague and wooly is very admirable, but still there is the delusion that the way it is being developed will actually result in any safe AV operations is worrying.

When a list of young British novelists to watch was released in 1983, many of them went on to become household names, thanks to both their talent and their sex appeal. A new list comes out every ten years, but has never recreated the same success as the original – so has it become harder for novelists to break through? And has the literary world lost some of its glamour? This podcast was brought to you thanks to the support of readers of The Times and The Sunday Times.

Max Pearson presents a collection of this week's Witness History episodes from the BBC World Service. It's thirty years since the Oslo Accords were signed. This agreement in 1993 aimed to bring about peace between the Israelis and Palestinians. So this week, we're bringing you stories from Israeli and Palestinian history. We hear about attempts at peace - the secret talks behind the Oslo Accords, and President Bill Clinton's failed attempt to end the conflict at Camp David. Plus, one of the most dramatic sieges of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that took place in a church. We also hear from a Palestinian and an Israeli who were there when rioting broke out in 2000, after the Israeli opposition leader, Ariel Sharon, made a visit to the al-Aqsa Mosque compound. And finally a hope of peace with the orchestra, made up of young people from both sides of the conflict, which performed a concert in the Palestinian city of Ramallah. Contributors: Mona Juul – Norwegian diplomat who was part of the team that planned and orchestrated the meetings which resulted in the signing of the Oslo Accords. Yolande Knell - Middle East Correspondent for BBC News. Gamal Helal - American diplomatic interpreter and policy adviser. Khaled Zeghari - Palestinian cameraman. Zalman Shoval - former Israeli ambassador to Washington. Carolyn Cole - photojournalist. Father Amjad Sabbara - Franciscan friar. Tyme Khelefi - former violinist with the West-Eastern Divan orchestra. Daniel Cohen - former violinist with the West-Eastern Divan orchestra.

He's one of the most recognisable faces on British television, covering some of the biggest stories of our time. BBC News presenter and Mastermind host, Clive Myrie grew up in Bolton - the son of Windrush generation parents - with dreams of becoming a journalist. He studied law at university but ended up accepting a position on the BBC's journalism trainee scheme. He's gone on report from more than 90 different countries including war zones in Kosovo, Iraq, Afghanistan and most recently, Ukraine. Clive's memoir, Everything is Everything reflects on how being black has affected his perspectives of issues he's encountered in his thirty years reporting the news.

How can we be better at explaining things? On the 250th episode of the podcast, I'm joined by a very special guest who has made explaining an art form and has just published a book called ‘The Art of Explanation'.That guest is Ros Atkins. He's a BBC News presenter and the BBC's Analysis Editor. Ros is best known for his explainer videos, which, since 2019, have become a global phenomenon with vast audiences on social media and on the BBC's digital, TV and radio channels.His new book — full title ‘The Art of Explanation: How to Communicate with Clarity and Confidence' — is part autobiography, part history of his explainer videos and a practical guide to how we can all be better at explaining things.I've been a fan of Ros' videos and presentation style since first discovering them a few years ago. Not only have they made me smarter about the world, but the techniques he uses are engaging, informative and entertaining. So much so, in fact, that I've often found myself recommending to my clients that they watch them as masterclasses in how to make complicated subjects interesting and compelling.Key talking points:In our discussion, we explore: the importance of explanation and why we need to be better at it;the genesis of the explainer videos;the techniques Ros uses to make his videos;how Ros generates his ideas, sometimes taking inspiration from the most unexpected of places;lessons about how we can all be better at explaining things, not just at work but also in our personal lives;how Ros uses an entrepreneurial and collaborative approach to get projects off the ground;Texting Keith Olbermann, a very unusual BBC podcast that Ros recorded with his wife Sarah and US sports presenter Keith Olbermann.The 50:50 project, a highly successful initiative to support diverse representation in the BBC's journalism, which Ros started in the newsroom in 2017 and has now spread across the BBC and beyond;and much more.‘The Art of Explanation: How to Communicate with Clarity and Confidence' To find out more about Ros' book: geni.us/TAOEBOOKKeith Jarret Köln ConcertRos mentions a story about jazz musician Keith Jarrett and a concert Jarrett played in Köln, Germany. As he tells the story — which links to the Inheritance Tracks podcast below — Ros says that we must fact-check it. True to his reputation, after we'd finisjhed recording, he sent me this NPR link which appears to confirm the story: https://www.npr.org/transcripts/719557642This piqued my curiosity, and I did further research and discovered that a reporter from — where else?! — the BBC – had looked into the Köln concert story. Not only did he confirm the facts, but he also managed to interview the concert promoter in question. You can hear the story here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p00ldwypYou can hear the Köln concert — part 3 features on the Spotify playlist below — here: https://open.spotify.com/album/0I8vpSE1bSmysN2PhmHoQg?si=UkPi_oTXR7Grrrwc403Fxg‘Art of Explanation' playlistThe Spotify playlist that features tracks from the book and podcast jointly curated by Ros and me: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/27ku9laOh8IantyEEdhTQa?si=fa1f8ca6d3cc41d1 Texting Keith Olbermann podcast You'll find Ros' podcast ‘Texting Keith Olbermann' here and on all podcast platforms: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p071wbr5Inheritance Tracks Hear Ros talking about Keith Jarrett's Köln concert and Steely Dan's Aja https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0g6c5bzThe ‘Ros Atkins on…' series https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p095rjk1/episodes/playerMy absolute favourite of Ros' Explainer videos is Ros Atkins on…The Number 10 Christmas Party: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-59514568

NEW CAR REGISTRATION FIGURES FOR AUGUST 2023For the first time, in a long time, the new car registration overall figure for August is close to those of the before times, being just under seven thousand less than 2019 numbers. Battery electric vehicles (BEVs) jumped to a 20.1% market share for the month, unfortunately the year to date is still stuck in the 16s. The SMMT make it very clear they desperately need the Government to reveal what the Zero Emission Vehicle Mandate will actually be as, astonishingly, they have not revealed what it will actually entail. Click here to read more about August from this SMMT article link. NEW EV MINIS WILL BE BUILT IN THE UK BMW is investing £600 million in their Oxford and Swindon plants to enable it to build the new Mini Cooper Electric and the Mini Aceman. This secures around 4,000 jobs and does include some financial support from the UK Government. To find out more, you can click this Autocar article link here. CAMBRIDGE CONGESTION CHARGE CANCELLEDThe plans for charging vehicles to drive in and around Cambridge, during peak times, has been shelved.

However, it was acknowledged that something will have to be done. If you wish to find out more, click this BBC News article link here. EV NETWORK AND BP PULSE OPEN UK'S LARGEST CHARGING HUBThe NEC Campus is the location for EV Network and BP Pulse's new charging hub, which is the largest in the UK.

It's been a long time coming, but we are finally bringing you the story of Lucy Letby. Lucy Letby, a woman, by all accounts, that was meek and a little nerdy, working as a neonatal intensive care nurse. A job not many people could handle. One would think she would be considered an angel for the work that she did caring for the tiniest and most fragile of babies. But this so-called angel was a devil in disguise.

American neurologist Walter Jackson Freeman had refined Moniz's procedure and developed a non-surgical procedure that could be performed in a doctor's office, which he called a transorbital lobotomy. Freeman's procedure involved inserting a medical instrument similar to an icepick into the patient's orbital socket to sever the neural connections, without requiring surgery, hospital stays, and long recovery times. Touted as a quick, easy, and painless solution to everything from general malaise and occasional depression to schizophrenia and aggressive behavior, the procedure a go-to solution for the very complex psychological problems that have affected countless people for centuries. Unfortunately, while the procedure was effective for a small number of those who received a lobotomy, it was used indiscriminately, often without consideration for the increasingly disastrous outcomes.Today we talk about the tragic and disastrous lobotomy on Rosemary Kennedy and thousands more that occured after it.

In the second installment of our three-part series of episodes recorded at the Havas Café during the 2023 Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity, host Ben Downing sat down with news and media heavy hitters Ros Atkins, Analysis Editor, BBC News; Carmella Boykin, TikTok producer, The Washington Post; and Joi-Marie McKenzie, Editor-in-Chief, Life division, Business Insider to get an inside look into the world's newsrooms and to discuss their take on the highs and lows of media experiences today. Topics covered during this riveting conversation include: the primordial role of storytelling and why voice remains critical; building trust with readers and the deep value of meaningful engagement; why and how journalists' own branding helps people to connect to storytelling; the potency of facts as the star of the show; the pivotal part played by production teams to build work that connects; and the advent of ‘bad faith' checks to closely examine content which could be taken out of context. “The reality is our focus in on good storytelling. Worrying about algorithms is almost secondary,” said Joi-Marie McKenzie, Editor-in-Chief, Life division, Business Insider, during the conversation.Enjoy!We'd love to hear your thoughts about meaningful media.

On October 15, 1977, seventeen-year-olds Christine Eadie and Helen Scott met some friends at the World's End Pub in Edinburgh's Old Town neighborhood to celebrate their new jobs and what they assumed would be the start of their adult lives. The next day, Christine's body was discovered by hikers near Gosford Bay, while Helen's body was discovered in a cornfield several miles away. The Lothian and Borders Police mounted a massive investigation to identify and apprehend the killer but, despite their best efforts, evidence was sparse and by the following year the case had gone cold. The World's End Murders, as they'd come to be known, became one of Scotland's most notorious cold cases, until it was reactivated in 1997 in hopes that scientific and technological advances of the previous two decades could lead them to the girls' killer.Thank you To the Fabulous Dave White for Research Assistance References:Amos, Ilona. 2019.
