In this week's episode we're joined by renowned historian Tim Bouverie to discuss his new book, Allies at War, and the political role that country houses played during the Second World War. From Chequers and Ditchley to the Livadia Palace (location of the Yalta Conference), country houses have long been important instruments of 'soft power' during times of war and peace.Allies at War by Tim Bouverie is published this week and is available from all good bookshops.

Sky News' Sam Coates and Politico's Anne McElvoy look ahead to the day in British politics.It's the day Sir Keir Starmer is due to deliver a speech which answers if globalisation as we know it is over, as financial markets plummet for a third day in a row following the announcement of Donald Trump's trade tariffs.Sam and Anne discuss what to expect from the speech following the prime minister's weekend at Chequers with other world leaders discussing how to avoid an all-out trade war and the first projections of the impact from tariffs on the UK.They also discuss the prime minister's decision to water down green policy on UK cars and ask if the decision is a 'quick-fix' which could scupper the UK's net-zero plans.

This tiny mother-of-pearl ring, once owned by Elizabeth I, holds a fascinating secret. Inside its locket are two miniature portraits: one of the queen herself and the other of a woman in 1530s fashion wearing a French hood. But who is this mysterious figure?   Could it be Elizabeth's mother, Anne Boleyn? Or perhaps her stepmother, Catherine Parr? Some even suggest it's a younger version of Elizabeth. Theories abound, but the truth may surprise you.   Join me as we dive into this Tudor treasure, unravel the clues, and explore the historical significance of this stunning artefact.   #ElizabethI #ChequersRing #AnneBoleyn #TudorHistory #HistoryMystery #HistoricalJewelry

When director and actor Ian Michael first saw the stage play of Picnic at Hanging Rock, adapted by playwright Tom Wright, it was as a theatre attendant. Now, he is directing it at the Opera House for the Sydney Theatre Company. The Noongar theatre-maker has forged an exciting career performing deeply personal stories alongside innovative productions. His production of the gothic story of the Victorian school girls who go missing on St Valentine's Day, interrogates a colonial nightmare and its fixture in the Australian imagination.In 1954, model Shirley Beiger shot and killed her boyfriend outside the ritzy Chequers nightclub in Sydney. The case was a media sensation, especially when Beiger got off without any charges. It has inspired the cabaret A Model Murder staged inside the Darlinghurst Court House, where the original trial took place. Performers Amber McMahon and Maverick Newman give us a taste of the court action, along with writer Sheridan Harbridge.In the hit Edinburgh Fringe show, Feeling Afraid As If Something Terrible Is Going To Happen, Samuel Barnett is a stand-up comedian regaling us at breakneck speed about his unfulfilling love life and very hectic brain. When a new and dazzling man comes into his life, everything could change, except for his new partner's extremely inconvenient medical condition... but is everything as it seems? Sam and director Matthew Xia join Michael to unpack this charismatic character, written by Marcello Dos Santos.

Over a Chequers banquet of sole in shrimp sauce, fillet of beef, and caramelized oranges, Margaret Thatcher and Mikhail Gorbachev met for the first time on 16th December, 1984.  While their ideologies were worlds apart, Thatcher appreciated Gorbachev's frankness and imagination. The Soviet leader, meanwhile, seemed equally captivated by Thatcher's unapologetic firmness and sharp intellect. Their rapport formed the foundation of a relationship that would influence global politics profoundly, with Thatcher famously declaring the Russian "a man we can do business with". In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explore the rest of the Gorbachevs' holiday itinerary; explain how Neil Kinnock killed the vibes; and reveal what Denis and Raisa got up to while their spouses were deep in conversation…  Further Reading: • ‘Gorbachev and Thatcher: The Chequers meeting that melted the Cold War ice' (The Times, 2022): https://www.thetimes.com/article/e9c5616c-2942-11ed-9092-6adde03bf612 • 'Political leadership in the Cold War's ending: Thatcher and the turn to engagement with the Soviet Union' (British Politics and Policy at LSE, 2020): https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/politicsandpolicy/thatcher-end-of-cold-war/ • ‘Margaret Thatcher would 'do business with' Mikhail Gorbachev - Daily Mail' (BBC News, 1984): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhl680YRT6g Learn more about your ad choices.

I must come clean, Rachel is not green fingered, but she has had an eventful life and talks about visiting her high achieving brothers garden at Chequers while he was PM.  We are later joined by her husband Ivo Dawney, who is a keen gardener, and was a director and consultant to the National Trust. He tells us about visiting Chevening House, which was the home of Boris while he was foreign secretary, and about how he persuaded the National Trust to open up the Big Brother House and garden to get more National Trust members visiting London properties. #bigbrother #nationaltrust

Tommy Meskill, London correspondent, on the significance of the meeting in Chequers later today between Taoiseach Simon Harris and the new Prime Minister, Keir Starmer, as part of growing British-Irish relations.

In today's episode - given the recent General Election in the United Kingdom - we discuss Chequers Court, the country house for sitting British Prime Ministers. 

Anson Resources Limited (ASX: ASN) executive chairman Bruce Richardson sits down with Jonathan Jackson in the Proactive studio to discuss the identification of high-grade gallium and barium mineralisation in conjunction with zinc, lead, copper and silver from historic drilling programs. The findings were identified through a review of records from historic lead mining in the area. The Mary Springs exploration program did not assay for indium or germanium, which have since been discovered at the Surprise and Ethel Maude prospects. The WACHEM dataset from the Government of Western Australia indicated gallium and barium assays across the Ajana Project area, corroborating drilling results that suggest numerous critical mineral deposits. Recent drilling programs by Anson have returned high-grade zinc, lead and silver values along with significant gallium, indium and germanium. Notably, gallium was found in all 26 drilled holes, with a concentration of up to 34.4 g/t. Additionally, the Chequers prospect has been identified as a third gallium-rich location. This prospect, between Mary Springs and Surprise, shows grades of 23 g/t gallium and 419 g/t barium from surface to 46 metres. The assay results suggest an extensive area of critical mineralisation, potentially over an 8-kilometre strike length. The original VTEM geophysical survey identified several zinc-lead-silver drill targets, indicating the potential for extensive or multiple mineral pods similar to Mary Springs. These findings are being used to plan follow-up drilling programs. Richardson, noted the significance of these discoveries for Anson's prospects without additional investment in soil geochemical test work and drilling. He emphasised the potential to develop a mine producing lead, zinc, silver, barium, gallium, germanium and indium, which are crucial for modern technologies. The company aims to further develop the Ajana Project alongside its primary focus on lithium in Utah, USA. #ProactiveInvestors #AnsonResources #ASX #MineralDiscovery #Gallium #Barium #Zinc #Lead #Silver #Copper #Indium #Germanium #AjanaProject #CriticalMinerals #Mining #GeochemicalMapping #VTEMSurvey #BruceRichardson #Exploration #Mineralisation #ASX #MiningIndustry #ResourceDevelopment #Australia #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

Recently I was interviewed on the popular British podcast A Life More Wild which interviews prominent (mostly British) folk about what matters in life WHILE they hike in a favourite locale in the UK. It's run by the outdoor holiday company Canopy & Stars, which is part of the Alastair Sawday Group (they publish a massive range of hiking guides).For this episode, we do a circuit track in the Chiltern Hills (“Area of Outstanding Beauty”) in Buckinghamshire, about an hour out of London. I chose this one because it starts and finishes at a pub, passes by a very cute church that serves tea and scones on weekends and does a loop around the Prime Minister's holiday residence - Chequers. I share my various theories, tips and tricks for hiking in the chat amid birdsong and churchbells.SHOW NOTESHere's the trail I did.

Why are there chess Grandmasters, but not Grandmasters of noughts and crosses (otherwise known as tic-tac-toe)? It is because chess is “harder” – but what do we really mean by that? Answering that question leads us to develop the idea of mathematical complexity, which is a measure of how ‘big' a game is. We'll look at the complexity of popular games, and ask: what is the hardest game of all time?A lecture by Sarah Hart recorded on 10 October 2023 at Barnard's Inn Hall, LondonThe transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/watch-now/maths-gamesGresham College has offered free public lectures for over 400 years, thanks to the generosity of our supporters.

From PM's holidaying at Chequers to the salacious escapades of Downton Abbey, country houses hold a special place in the public imagination. While these very big houses in the country are often considered to be relics of the past, their influence looms over modern politics.  Dr. Kasia Tomasiewicz speaks to Professor Kate Retford, head of school of historic studies at Birbeck University, to find out how these country homes guide our political climate.  “The relationship between the country house and politics goes back for centuries.”  “I'm not sure how many people would really like to live in one of these places.” "We can use these properties to tell some of the stories from history that they may not know."    Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/bunkercast  Written and presented by Kasia Tomasiewicz .

Together, they look at the current landscape of the Conservative Party – how could they win over the public when the party is so clearly divided? Do they need to refind their political identity?The panel discusses the net migration figures, which are at a record high, and debates whether the post-Brexit points system is working as the country has wide shortages in the workforce.

Does it matter if Boris Johnson broke more Covid rules by inviting guests to his country home, Chequers, when the rest of the country was in lockdown? His former advisor Guto Harri says it's time to get over it. There are more important things to discuss. But we're not so sure the country is quite so ready to forgive and move on. What does it say about the country in which we live, if rules no longer count and if the civil servants who report wrongdoing are threatened with legal action? Later we look at the latest Presidential hopeful to take on Donald Trump - Ron DeSantis, Florida Governor, who is launching his campaign on Twitter.

Boris Johnson is in hot water again, having been referred to British Police by the Cabinet Office over claims that he broke lockdown rules by hosting family and friends at Chequers during Covid.

Wearing his trademark olive green military fatigues, Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky has touched down in the UK to negotiate a major weapons deal.From Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's Chequers retreat, it's been promised hundreds of long-range attack drones will be given to help counter Russia's ongoing invasion. Britain last year provided over £2 billion of military support to Ukraine - more than any country apart from America - and has also trained 15,000 Ukrainian troops here.But the agreement to send long-range Storm Shadow precision missiles sparked the Kremlin to threaten military retaliation. Now, the UK government's confirmed provision of hundreds of air defence missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles with a range of nearly 125 miles, plus fighter jet pilot training - but Zelensky wants the planes.The Leader podcast's joined from Kyiv by Denys Ganzha, a member of the president's Youth Affairs Council.We discuss the context of Zelensky's visit, mobilisation of young Ukrainians, living under threat of Russian missile attacks and chances of peace talks.

'Homelands' noemt Timothy Garton Ash zijn zeer persoonlijke boek over 50 jaar leven, denken en praten met iedereen die ertoe doet in Europa. Het verschijnt meteen ook in het Nederlands als Europa, een persoonlijke geschiedenis. De eminente Britse historicus van Oxford en Stanford sprak over dat boek en de diepe lagen en vele verrassende ontmoetingen en verhalen daarin met Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger.***Op sommige podcast-apps kun je niet alles lezen. De complete tekst vind je altijd hier***Vader John Garton Ash stormde op D Day het Normandische strand op en speelde na de capitulatie van het Derde Rijk cricket in het door zijn eenheid veroverde dorpje Westen in Noord-Duitsland. Zoon Timothy moest onlangs bij het geven van een lezing in de Oekraïense stad Lviv plots de schuilkelder in. Het boek vertelt het verhaal, de belevenissen en inzichten die hij in de voorbije decennia meer en meer ging krijgen. En het is of we met hem door tal van eerdere edities van Betrouwbare Bronnen wandelen. Over De val van de Muur, Václav Havel, de Balten, de retorica van Volodymyr Zelensky, Vladimir Poetins tsarendromen, Helmut Kohl en zijn Saumagen, de heimelijke Gaullist Mitterrand, de Brexit en de ‘bregrets' daarover en over Margaret Thatchers 'handbagging'.Timothy Garton Ash ziet hoe Europa tussen 1945 en 1989 zichzelf moest heruitvinden, terwijl een grote meerderheid van Europeanen in dictatoriale regimes leefde. Met de val van de Muur brak een nieuw tijdperk aan waarin een heel nieuw Europa zichzelf opnieuw moest uitvinden. En met de inval van Rusland in Oekraïne ziet hij een nieuwe tijd aanbreken. Een periode waarin dat onvolmaakte continent, toch vrijer en sterker dan ooit, zichzelf opnieuw moet definiëren. "We weten nog lang niet waar dit heen gaat, maar ik durf nu wel degelijk een gevoel van optimisme te delen."De ontdekkingstocht van de Britse historicus begon als student in het West-Berlijn van de Koude Oorlog. Hij raakte verslingerd aan het oude, bijna vergeten 'Mittel Europa' dat juist in die jaren nieuw leven kreeg in verzet tegen de tirannie. In Berlijn, Praag, Warschau en het gruwelijk onderdrukte Roemenië kreeg hij vrienden waarmee hij sprak over hun dromen en idealen. Hij was in Gdansk op Walesa's scheepswerf, hij zocht Václav Havel stiekem op in zijn boerengehucht en leerde hun leuze 'Liberté, Fraternité, Normalité!' kennen. Een normaal land, een gewone samenleving als die van Nederlanders, Belgen en Britten, dát werd de droom.Toen de Muur viel, werd alles anders. Maar het intense gesprek met Havel, Kohl en Bronisław Geremek ging voort. En met zijn veelbelovende student - die George Soros voor hem financierde - Viktor Orbán. "Nee, dat is geen succes van mij als leermeester...", zegt Garton Ash vol zelfspot.Hij werd gecommandeerd naar Chequers, het buitenhuis van Margaret Thatcher. Hun gesprek over de de Duitse 'Wiedervereinigung' schreef geschiedenis. Dat geldt ook – en nu, 30 jaar later, dringt dat pas tot hem door - voor de rede van Kohl op zijn uitnodiging in Oxford hield. Het bleek de 'blauwdruk' van Kanzler en Jacques Delors voor de decennia daarna. Zo'n visie is nu weer heel erg nodig, zegt Garton Ash. Maar van wie moet die komen?Ook president George W Bush worstelde met toekomstvragen. "Moeten wij Amerikanen wel willen dat die EU een succes wordt? En moeten we de NAVO verder uitbreiden?", vroeg hij aan Garton Ash. Vlak daarna werden hij en Amerika zeker tien jaar afgeleid door '9/11', Afghanistan en Irak. Vooral China profiteerde daarvan.En nog iemand. Vladimir Poetin. Die ontmoeten we in dit gesprek in 1994 als onbekend gemeenteambtenaar in St. Petersburg. Diens toen al onversneden Russisch Imperiale dromen en frustraties leerden we na 2007 pas goed leren kennen. Te lang heeft Europa daarbij een appeasement-politiek gevoerd, is de bittere conclusie. Nu zullen we Zelensky – in wie Garton Ash overeenkomsten ziet met Havel - moeten helpen te winnen, stelt hij. Alleen zo kan ook in en met Rusland een nieuw begin mogelijk worden.En voor een democratisch Rusland moet uiteindelijk plaats zijn in de NAVO, zegt hij. En het Verenigd Koninkrijk komt terug in de Europese Unie, over een jaar of tien.***Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt door de Europese Unie en met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken.

(This corrects an audio issue in the original version of this podcast)Sporting metaphors aplenty today, with the sending off of Conservative party chair Nadhim Zahawi, strategist Isaac Levido giving a half-time pep talk to ministers at Chequers, and the risk of politicians nosediving before the next election. University of Manchester politics professor Rob Ford joins Stephen Carroll and Yuan Potts to discuss the political landscape, with a maximum of two years before the next election. Plus, Katharine Birbalsingh, dubbed Britain's strictest headmistress, on the challenges facing schools ahead of Wednesday's strike by teachers, and why she stepped down as the government's social mobility adviser.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Labour's Sir Keir Starmer attacked Rishi Sunak as ‘weak' as calls escalated for the Tory party chair Nadhim Zahawi to be sacked over his £5mn settlement with Inland Revenue. How much is the row damaging the PM's credibility and his vows to clean up parliamentary standards? Plus, as Sunak and his cabinet met for an awayday at Chequers to map out strategy, we discuss the challenge of his rocky ‘narrow path' to election victory.Presented by George Parker, with deputy political editor Jim Pickard, political correspondent Jasmine Cameron-Chileshe and columnists Robert Shrimsley and Stephen Bush.

From a trans prisoner row to tax troubles, it's been another busy week in politics. In Holyrood, just as the dust settles from the hotly debated Gender Recognition Reform bill, a new row over a transgender rapist has broken out, and tensions grow between the Scottish Government and councils over funding for teachers. Meanwhile in Westminster, legacy crises from the Boris Johnson era put pressure on Prime Minister Rishi Sunak as his cabinet meet in Chequers, with Conservative party chairman Nadhim Zahawi facing calls to resign over a tax penalty he received when Chancellor, and the ghost of Partygate threatens to re-appear.

Nadhim Zahawi's future as Conservative Party chairman is being discussed as ministers gather at the Prime Minister's Chequers residence. Levelling Up Secretary Michael Gove has been quoting Oasis lyrics to our political reporter Joe Mayes while on a train to Manchester. They discuss our analysis of the government's flagship policy to reduce regional inequality. Mayes also brings Stephen Carroll and Yuan Potts the details of Bloomberg's Levelling Up Scorecard. Plus, Opinion Columnist Matthew Brooker on the state of Britain's railways, ahead of next week's strikes.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Kirsty and Frankie assess the state of Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer's "political capital." Where does it come from, where's it going? Will the Prime Minister have any left by the time the Nadhim Zahawi furore is cleared up? Kirsty tells us about her time working with Theresa May in Number 10 when Damian Green had to be fired as first secretary of state and the challenge that was at the time. Frankie assesses where the Labour leader can build his political capital - including by running an MOT of Labour party politicians ahead of the next election. Plus, as the PM and the Cabinet head to Chequers for a lovely away day, Kirsty and Frankie bless us with their away day stories including marshmallows and spaghetti landmarks. And a team bonding session that resulted in the end of someone's employment. Literally.

As Rishi Sunak gets ready for a cabinet trip to Chequers and Keir Starmer plans an outing for his team, Matt asks if a political away day is a good way to build morale - or whether it's all flip charts, trust exercises and sitting on the floor.David Davis talks about his trip to Chequers with Theresa May, William Hague reflects on taking Tory MPs to a hotel in casual dress, and we hear about the Lib Dem away day that was visited by a six foot man dressed as a bee.Plus Times columnists Rachel Sylvester and Libby Purves discuss the prime minister and propriety, whether technology is making us unhappy and Nicola Sturgeon asking why 16-year-olds can't drink in a pub.

Nous allons revenir en 1973. Il y a 49 ans, le groupe de hard-rock AC/DC donnait son tout premier concert, à Sydney. Les frères Angus et Malcolm Young se produisaient avec des amis sur la scène du Chequers de Sydney.

Lewis describes being confronted by a black panther in the Chilterns area back in 2006, on the edge of the Prime Minister's Chequers estate. Lewis was with three friends messing about in the snow by moonlight, when the panther emerged. Lewis describes events as they fled from the hill.  Our second guest is the experienced investigator Paulo, who runs the Big Cats of the Chilterns FB page. He updates us on recent trends of sightings across the Chilterns area, and we finish with details of a fresh big cat incident very close to Paulo's home in mid December 2022. Words of the week:   call blasters & hunting decoys22 December 2022
