For me, it's really about - and this is the bit that goes back to my experience of photography in Northern Ireland, which was all about dramacentric imagery - how you can make photographs that have a documentary subject (that might be the closest I come to being a documentarian, that I work with the subject of documentary photography) but with the methodology of an artist. That's kind of the way I like to frame it, and I think that follows through to the work which is nearly always conceived for the gallery wall.” Become a A Small Voice podcast member here to access exclusive additional subscriber-only content and the full archive of 200+ previous episodes for £5 per month.Subscribe to my weekly newsletter here for everything A Small Voice related and much more besides.Follow me on Instagram here.Build Yourself a Squarespace Website video course here.

PRESS REVIEW – Friday, June 6: The press react to Donald Trump and Elon Musk's spectacular, messy and public fallout. This as Trump tells Politico that all is well between the two men. Also: The Economist looks at the decline of boys among prospective parents and why having girls is now sought-after in IVF and adoptions. The sports pages react to a "crazy" Nations League game between France and Spain. Plus: could David Beckham finally become a "Sir"? Donald Trump and Elon Musk's spectacular, messy and public fallout is in all the papers this Friday. The former BFFs-turned-enemies started feuding this week over Musk's criticism of Trump's "big beautiful bill" – a domestic policy bill that will add trillions to the public deficit. Vindictive, petty, childish, messy and public are just some of the adjectives used by The New York Times to describe Musk and Trump's spat. The Wall Street Journal recalls that the spat escalated gradually, starting with Musk criticising Trump's bill, to which Trump said Musk was aware of what had been coming. This was followed by Musk's calls to "kill the bill", to which Trump responded by saying that Musk suffered from Trump derangement syndrome. Then came the ultimate insult: Musk said that Trump wouldn't have won the election without him. The editors of the Wall Street Journal liken the two men's breakup to the War of the Roses. However, their spat may be as short-lived as their bromance. An exclusive from Politico's US website notes that Trump told the media outlet that all is OK between Musk and him. Privately, White House officials are working to de-escalate the feud.We turn our attention to an interesting article in The Economist, which looks at the rising preference for girl babies and the stunning decline in the preference for boys. In the 1980s, with the rise of ultrasound machines that could determine sex during pregnancy, millions of girls were aborted. Having a girl at the time was perceived as undesirable. But today, in some regions, preferences for girls are growing. The magazine notes this is the case among Japanese couples who only want one child. American and Scandinavian couples are more likely to have more children if their first one is a boy. In adoption, parents pay more for a girl and prospective mothers opt for XX chromosomes when sex selection is possible in IVF. The reasons for these changing attitudes are myriad and quite stereotypical – that girls are easier to raise and more academically astute, unlike boys who are perceived as more likely to get into trouble, as 93 percent of prisoners in the world are male. There is also the perception that a surplus of men, as we saw with gender selection in the 1980s, has created a sexually frustrated generation, leading to violence against women. The feeling is that a surplus of females in the world will have a counter-effect: more peace.The sports pages are awash with jubilation, joy and heartbreak after France's loss to Spain in the Nations League. The Spanish daily Marca calls it a dance that ended with a scare for Spain who were leading 4-0 and then 5-1 in the second half before Les Bleus scored three goals in the last fourteen minutes. But it wasn't enough for France to win what Le Figaro calls a crazy game. Spain play Portugal in the final on Sunday. L'Equipe shares the same sentiment, calling the match "totally mad". Also sharing front page space today is French tennis player Loïs Boisson, who lost to Coco Gauff in the semi-finals of the French Open despite a dream run at the tournament.There's good news, however, for Jordan's national team. Jordan Times reports that the team has qualified for the first time ever for the 2026 World Cup after beating Oman 3-0. The paper calls it "a monumental moment for Jordanian football and a culmination of years of effort, heartbreak and relief."Finally, British daily The Sun reports that David Beckham could be set to become Sir David Beckham in next week's king's birthday honours. It's been a years-long campaign – Beckham was first put forward for knighthood in 2011 after helping secure the 2012 London Olympics. But the footballer was blocked after being embroiled in a tax avoidance scheme. The long wait may now be almost over for the man known as Golden Balls – or possibly, Sir Golden Balls!You can catch our press review every morning on France 24 at 7:20am and 9:20am (Paris time), from Monday to Friday.

How to measure the good life? According to Cambridge University's Professor of Public Policy, Diane Coyle, quantifying progress doesn't involve traditional economic metrics. In her new book, Measure of Progress, Coyle discusses how economic metrics like GDP, designed 80 years ago, are increasingly inadequate for measuring today's complex economy. She argues we need new approaches that account for digital transformation, supply chains, and long-term sustainability. Coyle suggests developing human-centric balance sheet measures that reflect true progress beyond simple growth numbers. Five Key Takeaways * Economic metrics like GDP were developed 80 years ago and are increasingly outdated for measuring today's complex digital economy with global supply chains.* We lack adequate tools to measure crucial modern economic factors such as data usage, cloud services, and cross-border supply chains.* Economic statistics have always been political in nature, from their historical origins to present debates about what counts as progress.* Coyle advocates for a "balance sheet" approach that considers long-term sustainability of resources rather than just short-term growth figures.* While productivity growth has slowed for many middle-income families over the past 20 years, Coyle rejects "degrowth" approaches, arguing instead for better metrics that capture true progress in living standards.Professor Dame Diane Coyle is the Bennett Professor of Public Policy at the University of Cambridge. Diane co-directs the Bennett Institute where she heads research under the themes of progress and productivity. Her latest book is 'Cogs and Monsters: What Economics Is, and What It Should Be', exploring the challenges for economics particularly in the context of digital transformation. Her current research focuses on productivity and on economic measurement: what does it mean for economic policy to make the world ‘better', and how would we know if it succeeds?Diane is also a Director of the Productivity Institute, a Fellow of the Office for National Statistics, and an expert adviser to the National Infrastructure Commission. She has served in public service roles including as Vice Chair of the BBC Trust, member of the Competition Commission, of the Migration Advisory Committee and of the Natural Capital Committee. Diane was Professor of Economics at the University of Manchester until March 2018 and was awarded a DBE for her contribution to economic policy in the 2023 King's Birthday Honours.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Based at Corrimal Fire Station in NSW Paul has a passion for helping others and has become a role model for his peers and local community which has seen Paul develop many safety initiatives. Firstly, the Home Care Disability Fire Safety Program in which he promoted fire safety efforts involving clients and their carers, and secondly the winter's Smoke Alarm Action Day project, known as SAAD which takes place on June 1st every year. When not at the Fire Station, Paul is an incredible cartoonist, and we are proud to say he is the Illustrator behind all of our books which bring the stories to life in a spectacular way. Paul began drawing cartoons when he was very young at school, but before drawing l had a passion for modelling things out of plasticine. His late brother Steven was his inspiration to swap the plasticine to pen and ink and the family Louvre kitchen gallery eventually led to Paul getting his first published cartoon in The Bulletin magazine back in 1984. Today his cartoons appear in suburban & regional newspapers all around Australia and different parts of the world, and of course in our books, for which we could not be more grateful. Over the years Paul has supported the Jean 4 genes charity raising money for the Children's Medical Research Institute by painting on the jeans of celebrities such as Mike Tyson, actors Robin Williams, Jonah Hill, Jim Belushi, Keven Kline, Frances Mc Dormand, David Hasselhoff to name but a few.

This lecture outlines the different types of discrimination – personally mediated, structural/institutional and internalised – and the evidence linking these with an increased risk of mental illness.This lecture was recorded by Lade Smith on 21st November 2024 at Barnard's Inn Hall, London.SDr Shubulade (Lade) Smith CBE is the President of the Royal College of Psychiatrists.Having trained in General Psychiatry and worked in Forensic Psychiatry, she is now the Lead for the Acute Forensic Pathway of the South London Partnership and Clinical Director of the Forensic Services at SLaM.In 2019, Lade was awarded a CBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours for services to Forensic Intensive Psychiatric care and was awarded Psychiatrist of the Year by the Royal College of Psychiatrists She is also the former Clinical and Strategic Director of the National Collaborating Centre for Mental Health at the Royal College of Psychiatrists, providing medical leadership for the team developing mental health policy and guidelines. The transcript of the lecture is available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/watch-now/inequality-mental-healthGresham College has offered free public lectures for over 400 years, thanks to the generosity of our supporters.

Since winning the Women of the Year, Window on the World Award in 2007 in recognition of her unwavering campaigning for the rights of victims of forced marriage, domestic violence and honour killings, Jasvinder has been awarded a CBE and was made a Dame in the King's Birthday Honours list this year.  It's all a far cry from her strict upbringing and arranged marriage to a stranger in India which she was informed about at the age of 14. Running away from home, she lost everything she'd ever known and faced many challenges as well as heartbreaking tragedy, all of which only cemented her determination to help others facing the same injustices and cruelty.  Jasvinder describes what life was like growing up in her fiercely traditional Indian family and the traumatic, and still deeply felt, ramifications of choosing to run away rather than face a forced marriage like her sisters. She shares the roots of her campaigning work and reveals how long it took for her message and mission to gain any traction, and why she had to check under her car every morning before doing the school run with her children.

Networking has been highlighted as a key aspect of success, with Richard emphasising the importance of building relationships, attending events, and leveraging the network for opportunities. BEST MOMENTS "I sometimes wonder, and I've tried to shed off some roles over the years, but things keep coming back." "I bumped into my predecessor at the IOD at an event in Carlisle Airport and she started talking to me about what a membership organisation was all about." "I think the first thing when I started the business, it was all focused on the business." "I had no idea how troubled and how difficult some of the circumstances that some of the young people who were helped by the Trust have come from."   This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life.

Have you ever said to your teen, “What's going on in that teenage brain of yours?” Well, they may not know but I brought in a guest that does. John Coleman trained as a clinical psychologist and was formerly a senior research fellow at the University of Oxford. He is the founder of a research centre studying adolescents and their families, and during his career he has also run a special school for troubled teenagers and worked as a policy advisor for the government. He was awarded an OBE for services to young people in the Queen's Birthday Honours in 2001. In this episode we explore these questions. In what way is the brain changing? What role do hormones play in the teenage brain? Why do teenagers stay up late and struggle to get up in the morning? Do teenagers really take more risks? Why are teenagers so argumentative and how come their moods shift so quickly? How does understanding the developing brain improve relationships and communication at this crucial stage?

Lucinda Russell is a Scottish racehorse trainer. Her stables in Kinross have sent out almost 900 winners, including two Grand National champions. She is one of only two Scottish trainers and four women to have celebrated a Grand National win since the event began in 1839, and her yard is the most successful in the history of Scottish jump racing. Lucinda was born in Edinburgh in 1966. Although she didn't come from a racing background – her father ran the family's whisky business – she was obsessed with horses from a very young age. After many years of pleading, she finally got her first pony at the age of 10. A few years later the family moved from Edinburgh to Arlay Farm near Milnathort in Kinross-shire, where she still trains her horses today. After studying psychology at the University of St Andrews, Lucinda began riding competitively, which she funded by buying and training horses before selling them on. She took out her professional trainer's licence in 1995 and built up her stables on the family farm. Lucinda's first success at the Grand National was in 2017 with One for Arthur, ridden by Derek Fox. She had helped buy the horse for the owners, two self-described ‘golf widows'. She was awarded an OBE for services to horseracing in the Queen's Birthday Honours the following year. Then in 2023 she won again with Corach Rambler. Lucinda runs her stables with her partner the former National Hunt jockey Peter Scudamore. DISC ONE: Some Nights - Fun.
