Podcasts about cabinet member

In the latest episode of the Public Sector Executive podcast, we delve into the urgent challenge of decarbonisation in social housing, a topic that has become increasingly critical in the face of climate change and rising fuel poverty. The panel of expert guests includes Simon Myers, Executive Member for Housing at North Yorkshire Council, Steve Evans, Cabinet Member for City Housing at Wolverhampton Council, and Kate Atherton, Policy Officer for the National Housing Federation. Together, they explore the multifaceted approach required to create warmer, healthier, and more affordable homes across the UK.The discussion begins with an overview of the current landscape of social housing and the imperative for decarbonisation. As Kate Atherton highlights, funding certainty is paramount. Housing associations require stable capital grants to effectively plan and implement decarbonisation projects. The panel emphasises the need for the government to confirm funding streams, such as the Warm Home Social Housing Fund, to enable housing associations to meet their targets.Simon Myers shares insights from North Yorkshire, where the council has successfully secured £22 million for retrofitting projects. He discusses the challenges of merging different housing teams and managing the regulatory landscape while also addressing the affordability gap in housing. The importance of skilled workers in the supply chain is underscored, with both Simon and Kate recognising the potential for job creation in this sector.Public perception plays a crucial role in the acceptance of greener housing designs. The panel discusses strategies to engage communities and demonstrate the benefits of retrofitting. They acknowledge that while some residents may resist change, educating them about the advantages of energy-efficient homes is essential. Case studies of successful retrofitting projects serve as powerful testimonials to the positive impact of these initiatives.As the conversation unfolds, it becomes clear that balancing the needs of tenants with the goals of decarbonisation is a complex task. The panel discusses the importance of aligning interventions with planned maintenance work to minimise disruption for tenants. They also address the broader energy reforms that may inadvertently increase fuel bills for vulnerable households.The episode concludes with a call to action for continued collaboration among housing providers, local authorities, and the government. Sharing knowledge and experiences will be vital in overcoming the challenges ahead. With ambitious targets set for retrofitting homes, the panel remains optimistic about the future of social housing in the UK.This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the intersection of housing, sustainability, and social equity. Tune in to gain valuable insights and learn how we can work together to create a greener future for all. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Send us Fan MailRyan Jude of the Green Finance Institute (GFI) discusses how to mobilise capital for the UK's green home revolution.OverviewIn this episode, Nathan is joined by Ryan Jude, Programme Director at the Green Finance Institute (GFI) and former Cabinet Member for Climate in Westminster. While Nathan admits his expertise lies in the "weeds" of heat pump engineering rather than the world of high finance, the two find common ground in the necessity of making low-carbon technology the "rational economic choice" for the UK public.From the influence of legendary guitarists like Mark Knopfler and Dave Gilmour to the intricacies of Property Linked Finance (PLF), this conversation bridges the gap between technical installation and the financial mechanisms required to scale the UK's transition to net zero.Property Background & The Financial ChallengeThe UK heating sector is currently at a crossroads. While the "want" for green upgrades is increasing due to volatile international energy markets, the "hassle factor" and upfront costs remains a significant barrier for the average homeowner.Ryan explains that "Green Finance" is not a separate entity, but rather a "tinge" on existing financial products—mortgages, unsecured loans, and infrastructure investments—designed to incentivise sustainable upgrades. The goal is a "Green Economy" where the distinction between green and traditional finance eventually disappears.Key Discussion Points & InnovationsThe Evolution of Green Mortgages: Since 2019, the market has expanded from just four niche products to over 93 today, with an estimated £14 billion annually now flowing through green mortgage products.Property Linked Finance (PLF): Ryan introduces the concept of lending against the land rather than the individual. Based on the "PACE" model in the US, PLF allows the debt to stay with the property, lowering risk for lenders and ensuring the liability passes to the next owner if the current resident moves.The "Hassle Factor" vs. Interest Rates: Evidence from Scotland suggests that a 0% interest rate isn't always the primary driver for consumers. Trust, ease of the customer journey, and the "hassle" of installation are equally critical in determining uptake.The Strategic Partnership: GFI is currently co-running a partnership with the government's Warm Homes Plan, involving major high-street lenders like Barclays, NatWest, and HSBC to design accessible, low-interest, government-backed loans.Energy as an Asset: Discussion on how the National Energy System Operator (NESO) and demand flexibility schemes are turning heat pumps, solar PV, and batteries into assets that can actually reduce monthly outgoings through smart usage.Performance & EvidenceThe impact of current geopolitical events, such as the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, has led to a measurable surge in consumer demand.Solar PV: Requests to major suppliers like Octopus and EDF have increased by over 50%.Electric Vehicles: EV demand has mirrored this uptick, as the cost-per-mile (approx. 8p at home vs. 18p at the pump) makes them the cheaper long-term choice.Scale: Over 27,000 solar installations were recorded in March 2026 alone—the highest in over a decade.Closing ReflectionThe transition to a low-carbon home is no longer just a moral choice; it is becoming a financial necessity. As Ryan notes, success will be achieved when the average consumer wakes up wanting the technology not because it is "green," but because it is the smartest way to protect their household from global energy volatility.Support the showLearn more about heat pump heating by followingNathan on Linkedin, Twitter and BlueSky

The recent local elections have created a national battle for power within the ruling Labour Party. After suffering substantial losses to Reform UK and the Green Party, even traditionally safe Labour councils have changed hands or been thrown into “no overall control”. Across the country, Reform UK gained 1,452 seats, the Greens gained 441, while Labour lost 1,498 seats.In this episode of Streets Ahead, Laura and Adam focus on the local fallout of those elections; this is the type of politics closest to local people, and it's also the structure used to deliver sustainable and active travel schemes.Joining Laura and Adam are two guests with a deep understanding of local politics:Cllr John Morris, a Labour Councillor in Newham - Labour lost control of the Council and saw a surge in Independent candidates taking seats, leaving Newham in no overall control - but with a pro-car Labour mayor, Forhad Hussain. John was Deputy Cabinet Member for Highways and Sustainable Transport under the previous administration.Martin Price, outgoing Chair of Better Streets for Birmingham, a campaign group focused on safer streets and active travel. Birmingham is another one of those councils thrown into No Overall Control - and in the wider West Midlands, there is now an existing Labour Metro Mayor, 2x Reform Councils, 1x Labour Council and 4x No Overall Control.Links:John Morris' blog, on No Such Thing As A Safe Seat https://plaistovian.substack.com/p/there-is-no-such-thing-as-a-safeOn Birmingham's plan to become a big Low Traffic Neighbourhood: https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2021/oct/04/birmingham-to-become-a-super-sized-low-traffic-neighbourhoodAnd how that plan was inspired by the Belgian city of Ghent: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2020/jan/20/how-a-belgian-port-city-inspired-birminghams-car-free-ambitionsNewham's Living Streets local group: https://www.livingstreets.org.uk/get-involved/local-groups/newham-local-group/And our interview with the late Waseem Zaffar, formerly Cabinet Member for Transport and Environment at Birmingham City Council, who sadly died this year https://shows.acast.com/streets-ahead/episodes/episode-9-the-west-midlandsHis successor, Liz Clements, also featured on the podcast, as part of a panel discussion https://shows.acast.com/streets-ahead/episodes/live-from-london-walking-and-cycling-conferenceFor ad-free listening, behind-the-scenes and bonus content and to help support the podcast - head to (https://www.patreon.com/StreetsAheadPodcast).

Where and how we live has always been political – but with the right to buy, the explosion of the private-rented sector, and ever-increasingly demand for affordable, social, and council housing, it's rarely felt this existential.With the Renters' Rights Bill currently making its way through Parliament, the mammoth English Devolution and Community Empowerment Bill set to extend planning powers to new mayors and councils, and the budget expected on 26th November, it feels like a timely moment to unpick this huge, crucial issue – and how Labour is handling it.To dig into this, we were joined by two brilliant guests:Cllr Aydin Dikerdem is the Cabinet Member for Housing at Wandsworth Council. His background is in organising and campaigning, having worked as a community organiser for both the Labour Party and then the New Economics Foundation, where he focused on supporting renters unions and the retrofit agenda.Dr Beth Stratford is an economist, currently an Honorary Research Fellow at UCL's Institute for Innovation and Public Purpose, and founder member of the London Renters Union. She was a lead author of Land For The Many for the Labour Party, and is co-leading the Homes that Don't Cost the Earth project alongside colleagues from UCL, Arup, Dark Matter Labs and Rising Tide.Support the showEnjoyed the podcast and want to be a live audience member at our next episode?

London's Deputy Mayor for Environment and Energy, Mete Coban MBE joins Concilio's Account Director Siddo Dwyer to discuss the future of a greener London. In the latest episode of Concilio's Better Places podcast, Account Director Siddo Dwyer sits down with Mete Coban MBE, London's Deputy Mayor for Environment and Energy. From growing up in a council flat in Hackney to shaping London's city-wide response to the climate crisis, Mete brings both lived experience and bold vision to one of the capital's most urgent challenges. Previously Hackney's youngest ever councillor and a trailblazing Cabinet Member for Environment and Transport, he now leads City Hall's work to clean up London's air and rivers, decarbonise its buildings, and deliver a just transition to net zero. The conversation explores what it means to deliver climate action at the scale of a global city while keeping communities, fairness, and placemaking at the heart of that mission. We discuss London's retrofit revolution, the drive to make rivers swimmable within a decade, and how planning and investment can support greener, healthier neighbourhoods. Mete also shares his thoughts on local leadership, community power, and why climate justice must be about lowering bills, creating good jobs, and improving quality of life for those who've historically been left behind. This episode offers a hopeful, grounded take on what London's green transition looks like in practice - from the policy levers at City Hall to the front doors of Londoners' homes - and the leadership it will take to get us there.

Join Talib Man & Rana Ata Ul Rehman for Monday's show from 4-6pm where we will be discussing: ‘AI's impact on young minds And Literacy '. AI's impact on young minds Artificial intelligence is influencing young people's thinking in ways that we hardly notice, and this is causing a silent revolution. Although it encourages creativity and knowledge, it also runs the risk of causing dependency, distraction, and a loss of genuine connection. It can be a tool for growth if it is guided by wisdom; if it is not, it has the potential to subtly redefine an entire generation. Literacy As we celebrate International Literacy Day today, we are reminded that literacy is more than reading and writing, it is the key to opening minds and hearts. Islam itself began with the command “Iqra-Read” Today, we reflect on how literacy shapes not just societies, but souls. Guests: Salman Shaheen - Author, A Hounslow councillor who's also the Cabinet Member for Culture, Leisure, and Public Spaces Nadia Mohammad - Teacher Producers Noreen Niaz and Farah Mirza

It's fair to say this issue has been rumbling on a while. In the 1970s 70% of 4-11 year olds walked to school. Now less than half do. Three quarters of parents say 'side road zebras' would help them walk their kids to school more.In countries around the world white stripes, painted on the roads where side streets meet main roads, give pedestrians confidence, and drivers a reminder, that pavement users have the priority. However, in the UK any 'zebra crossing' as we call them, needs a flashing orange beacon and zig-zag lines at either side, to be legal on the roads. While 40 times cheaper to deliver, and tried and tested worldwide, 'side road zebras' without the lights or extra lines have been rattling around the pinball machine of British transport legislation for around eight years, so far without an outcome. While they exist in supermarket car parks without incident, the public roads are a different matter.Chris Boardman, England's walking and cycling commissioner, talks to Adam and Laura about the idea, which he's backed for some time, first working in Manchester as active travel commissioner, and now, in the national role. While he says caution in transport policy helps stop stupid things happening, he believes it is now the time to move forward. For context, we've had six transport ministers in the time it's taken to mull this issue.Adam and Laura also spoke to Westminster City Council's Cabinet Member for Streets, Max Sullivan. Max is overseeing trials of ten side road zebras in the heart of London, including outside the Houses of Parliament and the Department for Transport's HQ, which he says is a coincidence.A whopping 29% of pedestrians have been hit or nearly hit by a driver at a side road. Trials in Greater Manchester found drivers give way at side roads 30% more when there's a side road zebra. Additional polling found 76 per cent of parents of 4-11-year-olds would feel safer about their child walking to school (or allowing them to walk independently) if there were zebra crossings on side roads.We also visit the issue of pedestrianisation of Oxford Street by the mayor of London, Sir Sadiq Khan, against Westminster City Council's wishes.For ad-free listening, behind-the-scenes and bonus content and to help support the podcast - head to (https://www.patreon.com/StreetsAheadPodcast).

Simon's live update from Washington for Radio New Zealand's "Morning Report", with Ingrid Hipkiss presenting.

Europe's aim is to become a global leader in adopting next generation clean technologies. In the first phase, beginning in 2020, the focus was on meeting ambitious emission reductions goals. Four years later, the European Commission is making an important adjustment to its strategy. The new goal is to have Europe be a global leader in adopting and producing those technologies.  They call it the Clean Industrial Deal. Some background: Up until very recently, Europe's climate goals were met by sourcing many advanced clean energy technologies from China, including solar panels and electric vehicles. European leaders quickly understood that it would be far better for companies within Europe to produce the clean technologies than to import them from China or other countries. Joining us today to walk us through the new era is Barbara Glowacka of the EU Commission. She advises leaders at the highest levels of power in the European Commission on energy and law. 

The new government has put prevention at the heart of public service reform plans. So what difference could this approach make? By intervening sooner, problems may not escalate, become embedded, or arise in the first place – meaning preventative services could be a major contributor to public sector productivity.   With spending likely to be tight over the coming years, the theory behind an "invest to save" scheme is clear – but in practice it has been hard to implement, and cashable savings have often proved elusive.   This event brought together a panel of experts to discuss:   Is it realistic to expect preventative programmes to deliver cashable savings? How quickly could a shift towards a more preventative approach improve public service productivity? What are the respective roles of the centre of government, departments, and frontline services in delivering this shift and realising productivity improvements? How can additional investments be made in prevention when acute demand is high and spending tight?   To discuss these questions and more, our panel included:   Dr Thomas Waite, Deputy Chief Medical Officer Cllr Gillian Ford, Deputy Leader of Havering Council, Cabinet Member for Adults and Health Daniel Sperrin, Partner at Newton Moira Wallace, former Permanent Secretary   The event was chaired by Nick Davies, Programme Director at the Institute for Government.   We would like to thank Newton for kindly supporting this event.

During her first major interview since becoming the Democratic party nominee, Kamala Harris was asked by CNN if she would appoint a Republican to her cabinet. She replied, “I would,” and added, “I think it's important to have people at the table and when some of the most important decisions are being made that have different views, different experiences.” In response, vice presidential nominee J.D. Vance told Fox News that former President Trump would appoint a Democrat to his cabinet if elected. While the U.S. hasn't had an opposite-party cabinet member since the Obama Administration, there's significant precedent for the practice. We'll look at the history of presidents, from Lincoln to Obama, appointing cabinet members not from their party, what impact those appointments had and what's possible in today's politically polarized environment. Guests: Lindsay Chervinsky, presidential historian; executive director, George Washington Presidential Library - author, “Making the Presidency: John Adams and the Precedents That Forged the Republic”

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken says the situation in the Gaza Strip is "simply unacceptable" and Israel must "maximise every possible means and every possible method to get aid to those who need it". On Wednesday (NZ time), Blinken is sitting down with Israeli war cabinet member, Benny Gantz to discuss the ongoing war in Gaza. Gantz is the chairman of Israel's National Unity Party and a political opponent of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. His visit to Washington is taking place against Netanyahu's wishes, who has called on the Israeli embassy and ambassador to boycott Gantz's meetings in the US. It comes as the Biden administration has seemed to take a tougher rhetorical stance on Israel. CNN State Department Reporter Jennifer Hansler spoke to Corin Dann.
