Reform UK leader Nigel Farage unveiled his ‘shadow cabinet' at a glitzy event in London this week, with a newly bespectacled Robert Jenrick announced as ‘shadow chancellor'. The event was a hit with Reform's supporters in the room – but can the party appeal to a broader base?One clue as to Reform's prospects: the by-election next week in Gorton and Denton. The Manchester seat – where Reform, Labour and the Greens are all vying for victory – is a crucial bellwether.

Another day, another Labour scandal. The campaign group that helped sweep Sir Keir Starmer into No 10, Labour Together, now stands accused of orchestrating a sinister smear campaign against journalists.After The Sunday Times revealed the group had failed to declare £730,000 in donations, Labour Together reportedly paid a US consultancy to dig into the “backgrounds and motivations” of reporters Gabriel Pogrund and Harry Yorke.As the Cabinet Office begins “looking into” the affair, Camilla and Jacob Rees-Mogg ask how deep do Labour Together's roots run in this Government and if PM Keir Starmer should now sever ties completely.And as pressure mounts for a full police investigation into Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor over fresh revelations about his time as trade envoy, emails now suggest he leaked confidential information about Royal Bank of Scotland after its £45bn bailout, and shared sensitive details about Aston Martin.Producers: Lilian Fawcett and Georgia CoanSenior Producer: John CadiganExecutive Producer: Charlotte SeligmanVideo Producer: Will WaltersStudio Operator: Meghan SearleSocial Producer: Nada AggourEditor: Camilla Tominey Hosted on Acast.

The Prime Minister has called for an investigation by the Cabinet Office into the campaign group Labour Together which helped get him into power. The think tank is accused of having dug up dirt on journalists investigating its use of political donations. Who signed off the dark arts smear campaign? And why are we just hearing about it now? Later, is Trump's attorney General part of that Epstein cover up? Why is she so resistant to getting to the bottom of the crimes it reveals?

Safety by Design: Protecting Children in the Age of AI We chat with Maeve Walsh, Director of the Online Safety Act Network Join Zoe Amar and Paul Thomas for a conversation with Maeve Walsh, Director of the Online Safety Act Network. In this episode, we explore the complex landscape of online safety regulation, the emerging risks AI poses to children, and what parents and leaders really need to know. Maeve brings a wealth of experience to this conversation, having spent 17 years in Whitehall including roles at Cabinet Office, No10 and DCMS, where she led the team responsible for delivering the UK Digital Strategy. As a Carnegie Trust associate, her work on online harm reduction helped shape the Online Safety Act. She now leads the Online Safety Act Network and is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts. In this engaging discussion, Zoe, Paul and Maeve discuss: Why regulation drives innovation rather than stifling it – and how online safety regulation creates a level playing field, just as safety standards have done in sectors from food to cars. The end of tech exceptionalism. Why the argument that social media platforms are somehow "different" and can't be regulated is being debunked globally, from the EU's Digital Services Act to Australia's under-16 ban. The alarming risks AI poses to children – from chatbots designed to be persuasive and sycophantic, to harmful content being served up without safety testing. Why AI products are essentially being "tested in the wild" on our kids. What the public actually want. 72% say regulation would increase their comfort with AI, and 78% want safety checks on generative AI products even if it means delays – so why isn't this translating into industry action? Why even tech-savvy parents struggle with parental controls – and why the responsibility for keeping children safe shouldn't fall solely on their shoulders. What safety by design actually looks like: privacy set to the highest setting by default, better verification, and children only seeing content from accounts they follow. Practical advice for parents on having those tricky tech conversations with your kids – and why communication beats restriction.

Metropolitan Police has launched a criminal investigation into Peter Mandelson following claims he passed market-sensitive information to Jeffrey Epstein. It comes after the Cabinet Office referred material to police after reviewing Epstein file documents that suggest he forwarded internal government information to Epstein when he was business secretary in 2009.For the latest on this Anton spoke to Political Commentator Adam Boulton.

Things are moving at quite a pace these days, but at the time of writing Peter Mandelson has relinquished his peerage and the Prime Minister has asked the Cabinet Office to hand over Mandelson's emails to the police. The Republican campaign group has also called on the police to investigate Andrew Mountbatten Windsor. Will any of this lead anywhere? Or is it all just noise? And why have the Clinton's now decided to testify before Congress on what they knew about Jefrey Epstein?The News Agents is brought to you by HSBC UK - https://www.hsbc.co.uk/

After the PM's chief secretary Darren Jones set out plans to ‘move fast and fix things', we're asking, is it too late for this government to try and rewire the state ahead of the next election? And how does wholesale transformation of public services and the way Whitehall operate fit together with getting the so-called ‘barnacles off the boat' in a slimmed down operation meant to be laser-focused this year on improving the cost of living?To answer those questions and much more on Labour's attempts at civil service reform, host Alain Tolhurst is joined by Hannah Keenan, associate director at the Institute for Government and lead author of their Whitehall Monitor 2026 reportAlongside her is Alexander Iosad, Director of Government Innovation at the Tony Blair Institute, and who co-wrote their recent paper on Public-Service Reform in the Age of AI, as well as Luke Sullivan, director at Headland Consultancy, who was Keir Starmer's political director until the 2024 election, and a former special adviser in the Cabinet Office.To sign up for our newsletters click herePresented by Alain Tolhurst, produced by Nick Hilton and edited by Ewan Cameron for Podot

It's time to be one with nature, as Priyanca D'Souza talks to us about her passion for outdoor swimming. She shares how immersing in cold water offers a transcendent experience that pulls her into the present moment, from still lakes where she floats under the sky to challenging rivers that demand complete mental focus. Priyanca explains how outdoor swimming differs fundamentally from pool swimming, and emphasizes the minimalist nature of the activity. She also discusses how she actively seeks swimming spots when traveling, praising cities like Copenhagen for integrating swimming into urban life, and notes the mental health benefits of outdoor swimming, that allow her to completely disconnect from technology. Guest BioPriyanca D'Souza (she/her) is a Senior User Researcher in the public sector, specialising in Accessibility and Inclusion. She has recently worked on complex projects for GDS, Cabinet Office, Defra and Companies House. She aims to use her lived experience of access needs to embed inclusive practices within teams to drive forward ethical and inclusive design which better meets people's needs. Enabling people to empathise with the barriers our users can face and finding opportunities to alleviate and change things to make experiences better. She is fascinated by the impacts different barriers and conditions can have on cognition, behaviour, people's interactions and experiences of the world. She has a background in Cognitive Neuroscience and Psychology, which she combines with lived and varied practical experience.LinksPriyanca on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/priyanca.bsky.socialPriyanca on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/priyanca-uxCreditsCover design by Raquel Breternitz.

ChatGPT, the AI chatbot developed by OpenAI, was the fastest growing app in history. But this achievement, as sudden and remarkable as it might seem, was simply the most recent chapter in a fascinating story that has been unfolding for almost seven decades. This lecture explores the full history of the relationship between AI and work, and how economists have tried to make sense of it. It's a journey that begins with a remarkable gathering of minds in a non-descript mathematics department at Dartmouth University in 1956 and ends with the technological convulsions that we see around us today.This lecture was recorded by Daniel Susskind on the 13th of January 2026 at Bernard's Inn Hall, LondonDr Daniel Susskind is a writer and economist. He explores the impact of technology, and particularly AI, on work and society. He is a Research Professor at King's College London, a Senior Research Associate at the Institute for Ethics in AI at Oxford University, a Digital Fellow at the Stanford Digital Economy Lab, and an Associate Member of the Economics Department at Oxford University.  His new book, Growth: A Reckoning (2024), was chosen by President Obama as one of his ‘Favourite Books of 2024' and was a runner-up for the Financial Times Business Book of the Year 2024. He is also the author of A World Without Work (2020), described by The New York Times as "required reading for any potential presidential candidate thinking about the economy of the future” and a runner-up for the Financial Times Business Book of the Year 2020, and co-author of the best-selling book, The Future of the Professions (2015). His TED Talk, on the future of work, has been viewed more than 1.6 million times. He is currently working on his next book, What Should Our Children Do? How to Flourish in the Age of AI.  Previously he worked in various roles in the British Government – in the Prime Minister's Strategy Unit, in the Policy Unit in 10 Downing Street, and in the Cabinet Office. He was a Kennedy Scholar at Harvard UniversityThe transcript of the lecture is available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/watch-now/economics-aiGresham College has offered free public lectures for over 400 years, thanks to the generosity of our supporters.

The newly-appointed British ambassador to the United States, Sir Christian Turner, is a career diplomat whose experience spans almost three decades. He was about to take up the role of the UK's ambassador at the UN but after Lord Mandelson was abruptly pulled from his ambassadorial role in the US late last year, Sir Keir Starmer diverted Turner to replace him. Born in Crawley in 1972, Turner attended the prestigious Marlborough College, before pursuing English literature at the University of Manchester, and later a doctorate at York. After flirting with documentary-making, he pivoted to public service, entering the Cabinet Office in the late nineties. He has closely advised several prime ministers, including Theresa May with whom colleagues say he shared his love of card games.After an initial posting to Washington ended in 2006, his career has flourished at the foreign office. Mark Coles finds out more about the UK's new man in DC, as he prepares to navigate ties with the Trump administration in a delicate moment for the so-called ‘special relationship'.Contributors:Lord Peter Ricketts, former National Security Adviser Sir Simon Fraser, former Permanent Under-Secretary of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office and current chair of Chatham House.

It should have been the Mau Mau uprising.

In this episode we are joined by author and former royal correspondent Valentine Low to explore the evolving relationship between Downing Street and the Palace and why it matters for Parliament. Drawing on his book Power and the Palace, we explore how royal influence has shifted from Queen Victoria's overt political interventions to Elizabeth II's studied neutrality. Along the way, we connect historical episodes – where monarchs helped shape diplomacy and constitutional outcomes – to today's flashpoints, from the prorogation and dissolution of Parliament to referendums and royal finances and the looming constitutional headaches of future hung parliaments.We trace the story from Queen Victoria, who sought to shape foreign policy and even push ministers out of office, to the modern expectation that the Sovereign stays “above politics.” Low brings this history to life with vivid portraits of royal–minister tensions: Victoria's exasperation with Palmerston's “forgotten” correspondence, Edward VII's surprise charm offensive in Paris that helped thaw relations ahead of the Entente Cordiale, and George V's attempt to convene politicians at Buckingham Palace to tackle the intractable question of Irish Home Rule.From there, we turn to the weekly audience between Monarch and Prime Minister – private, unknowable, but still constitutionally significant – before arriving at the Boris Johnson years, when prorogation and election timing strained conventions and exposed how fragile the “golden triangle” of Palace–No.10–Cabinet Office co-ordination can be. Low also unpicks the uncertainty over dissolution rules after the Fixed-term Parliaments Act, the continued secrecy surrounding the expanded Cabinet Manual, and how “Sedwill's Law” effectively created a new precedent for what happens if a Prime Minister dies in office.Referendums have revealed further strains: the carefully calibrated words attributed to the Queen during the 2014 Scotland vote, the controversy over claims she backed Brexit, and the Palace's tightrope walk once neutrality is publicly questioned. We also revisit the aftermath of Diana's death and the Blair years, the role of state visits as diplomatic “show business,” and the perennial politics of royal costs.____

Michael Gove, Lord Gove, is the latest guest on Lord Speaker's Corner as he discusses the fragmentation of British politics, breaking up the Treasury, Brexit and The Celebrity Traitors. Lord Gove speaks to Lord McFall of Alcluith about why two-party politics no longer works, suggesting “We have to ask ourselves ‘why has this happened?', and not ‘how can we put Humpty Dumpty back together again?'”.He also suggests breaking up the Treasury, proposing “The argument … has a great deal of merit. You'd have spending control in the Cabinet Office … and an Economics Ministry dedicated to making sure government policy was oriented towards growth, innovation.”In this wide-ranging interview, Lord Gove also discusses fallings out with Conservative Prime Ministers, the benefits of Brexit, why he doesn't believe in referendums and that fewer people should be going to prison.Finally, on whether he would accept a role in a political version of The Celebrity Traitors, he tells Lord McFall that “I'd like Claudia Winkleman's role”.Listen now to find out more.See more from the series https://www.parliament.uk/business/lords/house-of-lords-podcast/ Hosted on Acast.

  The World Bank reports that, "today, more than half of the world's population – over 4 billion people – lives in cities." It also estimates that this shift is going to continue, in fact to DOUBLE to nearly 70% – or 7 out of every 10 people will live in cities by 2050. That's only 25 years away. At the same time, extreme weather events are increasingly devastating cities – we have all witnesses how Hurricane Melissa decimated Jamaica last week, for example, destroying home and businesses, schools, houses of worship, government buildings, everything. So what can, should and ARE cities doing to keep their people and economies safe and climate resilient?  What's working and what can we learn from them?  Today we're going to find out from four extraordinary women from across the globe." Joan Michelson's Introduction to the Panel at Smart City Expo 2025   We need to share what works in cities across the globe, and that's exactly what my esteemed panel did recently at the Smart City Expo World Congress 2025 in Barcelona, Spain.

'Marriage is the real rebellion' argues Madeline Grant in the Spectator's cover article this week. The Office for National Statistics predicts that by 2050 only 30 per cent of adults will be married. This amounts to a ‘relationship recession' where singleness is ‘more in vogue now than it has been since the dissolution of the monastries'. With a rising division between the sexes, and many resorting to alternative relationships like polyamory, how can we defend marriage?For this week's Edition, host William Moore is joined by political editor Tim Shipman, assistant editor – and parliamentary sketchwriter – Madeline Grant and the Spectator's diary writer this week, former Chancellor and Conservative MP Kwasi Kwarteng.As well as the cover, they discuss: how Rachel Reeves benefited from the OBR Budget leak, whether through cock up or conspiracy; what they thought of Kemi Badenoch's post-Budget performance; whether it is fair for Cabinet Office minister Nick Thomas-Symonds – in an interview with Tim – to say that ‘the architects of Brexit ran away'; and finally, how inevitable was the idea of ‘progress' when thinking about Britain's Industrial Revolution.Plus: Kwasi explains why he agrees with Tim that the Budget should be confined to the 19th Century. Produced by Patrick Gibbons.

As the government publishes key witness statements at the centre of a collapsed case involving two men accused of spying for China, we hear reaction from the former head of Parliament's Intelligence and Security Committee, Dominic Grieve. Also on the programme: former Downing Street Adviser Dominic Cummings claims that there was a serious breach of data with the highest security classification in 2020. The Cabinet Office has denied his claim. And we visit the five-day festival of Japanese sumo wrestling that's taken over the Royal Albert Hall in London.

What really happens in the frantic first 24 hours of a new government job? This week on Ex-Ministers' Questions, Ed Balls and George Osborne lift the lid on the art of political survival. From the scramble of last-minute briefings to the insider secrets government drivers know before their ministers do, they swap stories on navigating the chaos of a reshuffle.Then it's from the Cabinet Office to the kitchen, as George grills Ed on one of Westminster's most notorious culinary conspiracies: Lasagna-gate. Was that dinner party at the Balls-Cooper house really a covert plot to bring down Ed Miliband?And after serving up some advice for a new podcasting rival, the duo look ahead: could a robot outshine a human as a political speechwriter? They put it to the test in real time, asking AI to pen a Shakespearean sonnet on the spot. The result? You'll have to hear it to believe it…To get episodes early and ad-free, join Political Currency Gold or the Kitchen Cabinet:

The prime minister has made some big changes in No.10. Darren Jones moves from the Treasury to take on the newly-created job of chief secretary to the prime minister. A new executive director of communications has been recruited. Minouche Shafik has been appointed as the PM's economics adviser. And other eye-catching job changes are taking place. So what does this all say about how Keir Starmer wants to govern? How will Darren Jones's role dovetail with chief of staff Morgan McSweeney and Cabinet Office minister Pat McFadden? Will these changes really equip the centre of government for a “relentless focus on delivery”? And what Institute for Government recommendations should Starmer now adopt as he weighs up further changes to the centre? This IfG expert briefing explores the prime minister's reshuffle of his No.10 team.

As James Heale writes online for the Spectator today, 'two issues continue to plague the government': how best to attack Nigel Farage. and how to frame an incrementalist approach to policy 'when the national mood favours radical change'. Nick Thomas-Symonds, the Cabinet Office minister responsible for UK-EU relations, attempted to tackle both today as he came to the Spectator to set out Labour's Europe strategy.Labour are pursuing 'pragmatic alignment' – what they argue is greater co-operation when beneficial to the British interest. But what does this mean? James joins Michael Simmons on the podcast to unpack the speech. And, on a day when Reform have claimed another defector (this time Graham Simpson, their first Member of the Scottish Parliament), can anything stall Farage's momentum?Produced by Patrick Gibbons.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

C dans l'air du 10 juillet 2025 : Nucléaire, immigration : l'axe Paris-LondresAlors que les attaques russes redoublent d'intensité en Ukraine et que le continent s'est lancé dans une course à l'armement, Paris et Londres ont annoncé être prêts à "coordonner" leurs dissuasions nucléaires pour protéger l'Europe de toute "menace extrême". Un "groupe de supervision nucléaire", coprésidé par l'Élysée et le Cabinet Office britannique, va être créé. Cette évolution majeure de leur doctrine a été officialisée par Emmanuel Macron et Keir Starmer, alors que le président de la République effectue une visite d'État au Royaume-Uni depuis plusieurs jours.Depuis plusieurs semaines, les deux dirigeants avaient promis de muscler la défense européenne face au désengagement des États-Unis. C'est chose faite. Mais qu'est-ce que cela signifie concrètement ? S'agit-il d'un tournant historique en matière de dissuasion nucléaire ? Le rapprochement franco-britannique signe-t-il le retour de "l'Entente cordiale" ?Invité par le roi Charles III, Emmanuel Macron est le premier chef d'État de l'Union européenne à se rendre outre-Manche depuis le Brexit, et le premier président français à effectuer une visite d'État au Royaume-Uni depuis Nicolas Sarkozy en 2008. Entre procession en calèche et dîner royal à Windsor, le couple présidentiel ont eu droit à tous les honneurs du protocole royal. Emmanuel Macron s'est également adressé au Parlement britannique, a coprésidé une réunion de la "coalition des volontaires" avec Keir Starmer, et a participé à un sommet qualifié par certains de… réconciliation.Au-delà de la défense, Londres et Paris s'apprêtent à annoncer de nouvelles mesures pour lutter contre l'immigration clandestine dans la Manche, un dossier qui empoisonne les relations bilatérales depuis plusieurs années.Autre point de friction : Donald Trump. Le président américain, revenu sur le devant de la scène, menace d'imposer de nouveaux droits de douane. Une inquiétude partagée des deux côtés de la Manche. Tandis que Keir Starmer s'est dit prêt à satisfaire les exigences de Washington pour conclure rapidement un accord, Paris et Bruxelles ont jusqu'au 1er août 2025 pour tenter, à leur tour, de négocier un compromis.LES EXPERTS :- ANTHONY BELLANGER - Éditorialiste - Franceinfo TV, spécialiste des questions internationales- JOSEPHINE STARON - Directrice des études et des relations internationales – Synopia- CATHERINE NORRIS TRENT - Grand reporter -France 24- PATRICK DUTARTRE - Général de l'armée de l'Air et de l'Espace, ancien pilote de chassePRÉSENTATION : Caroline Roux - Axel de Tarlé - REDIFFUSION : du lundi au vendredi vers 23h40.PRODUCTION DES PODCASTS: Jean-Christophe ThiéfineRÉALISATION : Nicolas Ferraro, Bruno Piney, Franck Broqua, Alexandre Langeard, Corentin Son, Benoît LemoinePRODUCTION : France Télévisions / Maximal ProductionsRetrouvez C DANS L'AIR sur internet & les réseaux :INTERNET : francetv.frFACEBOOK : https://www.facebook.com/Cdanslairf5TWITTER : https://twitter.com/cdanslairINSTAGRAM :https://www.instagram.com/cdanslair/

"The cabinet is just a kind of stage theatre, and actually, officials in the Cabinet Office have already decided it all." "It sounds like a parody, but it is literally how the British state functions."If we win the next election, we will scrap Net Zero." "There will be no more asylum hotels." "People who come here illegally... will not be allowed to stay." "We will scrap the DEI agenda."

Procurement is central to the operation of modern government but, following a series of high-profile scandals, is often controversial. Much of the criticism has focused on the role of the biggest suppliers, some of whom have become household names for the wrong reasons. But who are these big suppliers and how dependent is the government on them? This special episode of Inside Briefing will tell you everything you need to know about how much the government actually spends with big suppliers, the kind of services these companies provide, how well do they perform compared to other suppliers, and how effective the government is at holding them to account. With IfG programme director Nick Davies, former Cabinet Office minister Francis Maude, Capita Public Service CEO Richard Holroyd, the TUC's Director of Organising Public Services and Skills Sian Elliott, and Gus Tugendhat, Founder of Tussell.

In this episode of the Warships Pod guests David Murrin and Dr David Blagden, with help from host Iain Ballantyne, discuss a worldwide struggle in a multi-polar era that is rapidly turning kinetic - from Ukraine, to the Red Sea and Gaza. It may soon burn even hotter should China invade Taiwan and/or the USA attack Iran. A number of topics are discussed during this episode, including the following: *Does the European Union (EU) have a place in such a world, at the top table? Or is it going to be sweeping up the crumbs along with the UK, the latter finding itself a bridge to neither the USA or the EU? *Bearing in mind the UK is a maritime nation, is committing what remains of the British armed forces to policing a frozen war in Ukraine unwise? Do we risk a situation where things get bogged down in that theatre while the Russians run amok at sea, with the UK defenceless? *With concerted attacks by US Navy carrier jets and cruise missile attacks by other USN units against the Houthis in Yemen is it at odds with the Trump administration's supposed urgent priority of facing down China and its huge navy? Every missile expended against the Houthis is surely one less for use against the Chinese? *Narrowing the discussion down to the UK, with the Labour government announcing plans to cut welfare to pay for Defence boosts, how do the two Davids think the Royal Navy should mould itself? Finally - and this is a big one for the episode's final point of discussion - are we heading inexorably towards what the tabloids might call WW3? Or can it be avoided?
