After weeks of speculation, Liz Kendall has confirmed what benefits are to be axed in order to save £5 billion from the welfare bill - but at what cost for sick and disabled people?Keir Starmer says the rising benefit bill is “devastating for public finances” and has “wreaked a terrible human cost”. But many of his own Labour MPs have accused him of selling cuts as compassion and in the words of Clive Lewis “causing pain for millions”. Zoë Grünewald steps in for Nish to survey the fallout with Coco. And the cuts don't stop there - NHS England's abolition and unprecedented cost-cutting could see up to 30,000 jobs lost. Zoë and Coco discuss the “high-stakes” move, which the Institute of Fiscal Studies has said is “not fully thought through”.Next up, the Tories and Reform are trying to seize the news-agenda with a pair of not-so special special announcements.

And they also discuss the continuing fallout from the farmland inheritance tax changes - and the Liberal Democrats' revealing position on the issue. ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** Naomi: "There is a vacuum. Scholz and Macron are in peril. The Democrats are licking their wounds in the States. And there is an opportunity for a leader who believes in the rule of law and liberal democracy, to strengthen international institutions and to show boldness and courage." Alex: "The arguments against inheritance tax are all 'blue skies, and rolling hills, and stewards of the land'. I feel emotionally manipulated. And I think this shtick may wear very, very thin, very, very quickly. Eventually, you have to find a better argument than singing 'Jerusalem' over and over again."

The West Indies is looking to the UK government for reparations, so this week, Clive Lewis and Laura Trevelyan are heading back to London, to understand the link between the Caribbean and Britain. It's time to revisit the history of the Windrush generation - the men and women who travelled to Britain for work and to help rebuild after World War Two. Clive talks to his dad about his experience, and Professor Olivette Otele explains how the treatment of the Windrush generation adds to the call for reparations. With that in mind, Laura and Clive are keen to know what the reparatory justice movement looks like in London.

Clive Lewis is a British Labour politician who has been a Member of Parliament (MP) since 2015. He worked as a TV reporter for BBC News and served as an infantry officer with the Territorial Army. He served a three-month tour of duty in Afghanistan in 2009. He became shadow defence secretary in June 2016, and shadow business secretary in October 2016. He left the Shadow Cabinet in 2017 in protest over the Labour Party's decision to trigger Article 50 to leave the EU, but rejoined the front bench a year later as shadow minister for sustainable economics. In this episode we talk about grassroots journalism, tribal politics, the Corbyn movement, his time in Afghanistan and the future for progressives.
By popular demand, we have our first return guest, Clive Lewis MP. First time around it was a great show, and this one is too. We explore in depth, the possible implications of the UK implementing Proportional Representation, or not. How can we change the electoral system - what are the chances of it happening, and when might it happen by. And what would this huge change mean for British politics. A big thank you to Clive for coming back on the show. Thelma and I agreed beforehand to give Clive as much time as he needed to say all that he wanted to say on this subject. It's a long show, because it needed to be. Stick with it, it's worth it.

'The hardest part is getting started, getting that first paragraph on the page. And once I've been able to do that, generally for me, my writing then flows from that.' Clive Lewis has written 17 books, so he's learned a bit about organizing and communicating his ideas. He writes about the things that mean most to him - this time it's the toxicity of the workplace (which is itself of course a microcosm of society) and how to create more positive, healthy environments. [Spoiler alert: it often just comes down to speaking and listening.] In this week's Extraordinary Business Book Club conversation we talk about the 'new normal' and the old issues at work, about empathy, diversity and inclusion, setting goals, getting started (and the difficulty of finishing), and the intoxicating power of words.

We have all got used to working from home, so it can be tempting to forget that office politics exist, and breathe a sigh of relief. In fact, they are still rampant, and, in many ways, we need to be even more aware of them and make them more visible. Business mediator Clive Lewis who specialises in workplace disputes, believes office politics to be so prevalent, that he has written a book, Toxic - A Guide to Rebuilding Respect and Tolerance in a Hostile Workplace. He describes toxic behaviour, bullying and the minefield of office politics. “Such behaviour is not only simply wrong and damaging to its victims, it also results in reduced productivity, higher employee turnover and can often leave a stain upon the wider reputation of an organisation.” I have observed toxic environments and the effects on the lives and careers of people first-hand. The need by leaders and fellow colleagues to control and be in control is at the root of the problem. My observation is that with remote working, this need has heightened due to lack of physical contact. This has only added to the ‘command and control’ approach with crazy back-to-back zoom calls and daily forecast updates. Rethinking your approach to politicisation within your organisation is vital in the current climate if you want to avoid being outflanked. With your visibility currently reduced, now is a good time to stop, reset and ask yourself, in terms of managing upwards and sideways: • What should my next 90 days look like? • What should my next 180 days look like? Many organisations have not allocated enough resources or thought to this new environment to allow people to work from home effectively. For example, they haven’t allowed for appropriate breaks,” he notes. Remember the film The Good, The Bad & The Ugly by Sergio Leone? This is how it translates to office politics: The Good - when your visibility enhances your personal brand. The Bad – when you are outflanked to a promotion, a major account or don’t get the credit for landing a major account. The Ugly - a nasty exit that could potentially damage your career and is mentally destabilising. Here’s how: • Realise that managing upwards is very, very important. So, ask yourself what you can do to make your line manager’s career easier and to help bolster their image. • Understand your line manager’s priorities, expectations, beliefs, and attitudes - agreeing those is vital. • Try to identify the most pressing problems that your line manager has so that you can look to solve those problems using your knowledge, expertise, and network of resources. My office politics light-bulb moment Like most of us, I used to find office politics a complete drain. That was until a conversation with a much-respected senior leader changed my perspective. He commented that politics was inevitable within the company and noted how well I managed the politics with my customers. I knew how to navigate large, multinational companies and FTSE 100 businesses and did so very well for my customers. With that being the case, why wasn’t I managing office politics more effectively within the company that I was actually working in? It was my communication skills that enabled me to navigate so well for my customers, yet I found that type of communication challenging when I had to do it for myself. Communication in the workplace can be extremely challenging and, as George Bernard Shaw said: “The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place.” Enterprise Sales Club is now LIVE at https://www.enterprisesalesclub.com.

Conflict is an inevitable part of human interaction. At a time when it’s crucial we come together and strengthen our relationships, albeit virtually, inconsequential disagreements or a mishandled conversation can bubble up into unpleasant or even toxic situations. While being able to ‘manage’ conflict is a necessary skill for individuals and the modern workplace, is there a healthy and progressive side of conflict that can be channelled into success? Join Nigel Cassidy and this months’ guests, Amy Gallo, Contributing Editor at Harvard Business Review; Clive Lewis, OBE and CEO of Globis Mediation Group and Rachel Suff, Senior Employee Relations Adviser at CIPD, to learn about the key causes of negative conflict, strategies for diffusing workplace flare-ups and how we can encourage constructive and progressive workplace conflict.
In this episode we co-launch, with Policy Network, Marius Ostrowski's new book Left Unity: Manifesto for a Progressive Alliance, with Clive Lewis, Labour MP for Norwich South, Paul Mason, writer and journalist and Molly Scott Cato, former Green MEP.As Marius wrote in a recent blogpost for Compass, “Being on the Left means aspiring to a society built on cooperation, solidarity, and the common good. Yet when it campaigns for this society, the Left movement can be strangely reluctant to practice what it preaches.” The book outlines how progressives – from all parties and none – can better work together, overcome divisions and start to develop more comprehensive strategies to build a ‘progressive alliance'."It's Bloody Complicated" is recorded every Tuesday at 6pm GMT.

Labour leadership candidate Clive Lewis has said there should be a referendum on the future of the Royal Family. Speaking at his campaign launch in London, he said: "A lot of people would like to see the monarchy scaled down." Are Meghan and Harry right? Will we miss them? Should we even have a Royal Family?

Clive Lewis ... Hosts Zoe Williams and Luke Cooper are joined by Labour MP Clive Lewis, who has been heavily involved in developing the ideas and campaigning initiatives we need to save the planet. We chat Extinction Rebellion and how to connect the goals of a climate revolution to social justice, asking whether there are opportunities as well as sacrifices ahead. We also link these huge global challenges to the upcoming European elections - what better place to promote these policies, you might be forgiven for thinking. And - inevitably, of course - pick Clive's brains on the Labour line on Brexit and the future of the European Union.

In this two-man episode, Jack and Kieran gather their thoughts a week after That Election. We celebrate wildly after claiming our first scalp - frog botherer Tim Farron - before welcoming our boy Clive Lewis back into the fold for merking the hated Chris Leslie. A few moments are spared to touch on the appalling tragedy of the Grenfell tower fire, and how Theresa May's colossal ineptitude and tone-deafness is depleting her credibility by the day. We lost our last episode so this is kind of a sorry present from us. Appreciate it. (Shoutout to Jack Lewis Evans off of YouTube for composing this episode's beautiful opening song, and our guy Phil Lynott for the closing one.)

Finally, Keiran gives his immediate thoughts in the aftermath of parliament voting to invoke Article 50 and Clive Lewis deciding to resign from Labour's front bench.

In GBA 277 we get better acquainted with Zack. He talks acting, therapy, art, activism, politics, that time he wen't a bit viral for heckling Jeremy Corbyn, how he views the political landscape of party politics as someone who has tried to create social change from within the system, being a hypnotherapist who doesn't believe in hypnotism and so much more. This conversation was recorded in a busy cafe on Zack's birthday, in a world where Donald Trump was not yet President Elect.
