As the concept of ID cards rears its ugly head once again, Hannah and Jen are asking if Keir Starmer's revolutionary way of eliminating faff will be as effective as Brexit in terms of reducing bureaucracy. Elsewhere, it seems the Home Office could do with some help in getting its day job done. Meanwhile, Henry VIII is repping Sexism of the Week via Hemel Hempstead, there are big international fixtures in Jenny off the Blocks, and thank God, as ever, for the French.

We're looking at the wine industry. Yeah, we're looking at two countries whose wine industries have faced two very different problems recently. Richard, we're starting with South Africa.我们来看看葡萄酒产业。是的，我们要谈的是两个国家，它们的葡萄酒产业最近面临着截然不同的问题。理查德，我们先从南非开始吧。Tell us about that. Yes, well they've been making wine for quite some time, since 1659, and they are the eighth largest wine producer, producing 3.3% of the world's wine. Who do they export to? Mainly to Europe.说说南非的情况吧。好的，他们酿酒的历史可以追溯到1659年，是世界第八大葡萄酒生产国，占全球葡萄酒产量的3.3%。那他们主要出口到哪里呢？主要是欧洲。It's 13% to the UK, 11% to Germany and 3% toFrance. So they're doing quite well. Well, as it happens, wine production in South Africa has actually been gradually falling.出口比例是：英国13%、德国11%、法国3%。所以总体来说，他们的表现还不错。不过事实上，南非的葡萄酒产量近年来一直在逐渐下降。Now it's mainly because of the drought that they've been having over the last few years. Right, but for this podcast, we're talking about a specific problem they have now. Yes, they have had a specific problem this year, is that they've got a surplus stock of about 300 million litres of wine, which is about 400 million bottles.主要原因是过去几年他们经历了严重的干旱。没错，但在这期节目中，我们要讨论的是他们现在面临的一个特殊问题。是的，今年他们面临的问题是，出现了大约3亿升葡萄酒的库存过剩，相当于4亿瓶酒。That's a lot. It's about the total wine sales for them for one year. So how has that happened? I'll give you one guess.这可不少啊，这个数量几乎相当于他们一年的葡萄酒总销量。那这是怎么发生的？我让你猜猜看。Covid. Now, South Africa has the most Covid-19 deaths of any African country and the President, he decided to introduce some serious measures and these included the total ban on alcohol sales in the country. A complete total ban? Yes, the President argued that it was necessary to reduce alcohol-related illnesses and injuries so that hospitals could instead focus just on Covid-19.新冠疫情。南非是非洲新冠死亡人数最多的国家，总统决定采取严厉措施，其中包括全国范围内全面禁止酒类销售。全面禁止？是的，总统认为这样做是为了减少酒精相关疾病和伤害，好让医院能专注于治疗新冠患者。Right, OK. Now, what was the result of that? Well, the domestic wine sales decreased by 20% and, of course, exports declined as well because people in Europe were drinking less because of the pandemic. And actually, in addition, some winemakers were unable to launch any new products and the industry actually fears a loss of 27,000 jobs across the industry.好的。那么结果如何？国内葡萄酒销量下降了20%，当然出口也下降了，因为疫情期间欧洲人也减少了饮酒量。此外，一些酿酒商无法推出新产品，整个行业预计可能会失去约27,000个工作岗位。That is 10% of the total workforce of 265,000. Not looking good for South Africa then. So what's your country then, Jackie? Well, the second country produces a lot more than South Africa, between three to four billion bottles of wine.这相当于全国26.5万名葡萄酒从业者中的10%。南非的情况看起来不太乐观。那么，杰基，你说的另一个国家是哪一个？第二个国家的产量比南非高得多，每年在30到40亿瓶之间。That's got to beFrance, hasn't it? Yeah. Now, but interestingly, Richard, over the last few years, the French wine industry too has seen a steady decline. And why is that then? A number of reasons.那一定是法国，对吧？没错。不过有趣的是，理查德，近年来法国的葡萄酒产业也在持续下滑。那是为什么呢？原因有好几个。The US has imposed import taxes on French wine. The UK left, so Brexit also caused a problem. Sales to the UK dropped.美国对法国葡萄酒征收了进口税；英国脱欧也带来了问题，对英出口量下降了。And also, interestingly, competition with many New World wines. Such as South Africa. Well, exactly, exactly.还有一个原因是来自“新世界葡萄酒”的激烈竞争。比如南非。没错，正是如此。Yes, French wine's always more expensive, isn't it? But there is now a specific problem. At least a third of French wine production, worth almost 2 billion euros, will be lost this year. Wow.是的，法国葡萄酒一直比较昂贵，对吧？不过现在他们也面临一个特殊问题。今年至少三分之一的法国葡萄酒产量将损失，价值近20亿欧元。哇。Is that Covid-related? Not because of Covid. Why then? The weather. Rare freezing temperatures have devastated many vines across the country.这也是因为新冠疫情吗？不是。那是什么原因？天气。罕见的低温冻结摧毁了全国许多葡萄藤。But it's not just the bitter frost and ice, which is the worst in decades, Richard. But the problem was, it came after a bout of warm weather. So the vines started to develop earlier than usual.不仅仅是几十年来最严重的冰霜灾害，理查德，问题在于它发生在一段温暖天气之后。葡萄藤因此提前萌芽。And then they were killed off. And then they were killed off by the frost, yeah. 80% of vineyards have been affected inFrance.然后这些嫩芽就被霜冻毁掉了。是的，被冻死了。法国80%的葡萄园受到了影响。Wow, that's a lot. That's a lot, yeah. And some areas have lost all of their crops, 100% of their crops, and they don't think they'll produce a single bottle.哇，那可真严重。是的，确实如此。一些地区的葡萄作物全部被毁，100%绝收，他们甚至预计今年一瓶酒都酿不出来。It's been devastating. I'm sure. Yeah.这太毁灭性了。是啊，确实如此。But, Richard, one wine country has done well. No US tariffs, no limits on drinking during Covid and no bad weather. Wow, where's that then?Portugal.不过，理查德，有一个葡萄酒生产国的情况相当不错。没有美国关税，没有新冠期间的饮酒限制，也没有恶劣天气。哇，那是哪儿？葡萄牙。

Tussentijdse verkiezingen voor één zetel in het regionale parlement van Wales. Je zou niet verwachten dat de uitslag daarvan de Britse media domineert, laat staan dat je er verregaande conclusies over de toekomst van de politiek van het Verenigd Koninkrijk aan zou moeten verbinden. Toch is de uitslag veelzeggend. De zetel was sinds mensenheugenis in handen van Labour. Dat is nu niet meer zo. Maar het verlies van Labour is niet de meest interessante ontwikkeling. Verwacht werd namelijk dat de Reform-partij van Nigel Farage er met de winst vandoor zou gaan. Maar het werd de Welsh centrum-linkse nationalistische partij Plaid Cymru. Die partij blijkt veel beter in staat een weerwoord tegen Farage te bieden dan de gevestigde orde. En dát is een interessant voorteken voor de gemeenteraadsverkiezingen in het voorjaar. Ook in deze aflevering Een vacature voor het opvoeden van een peuter tot Engelse gentleman. Als je de juiste papieren en afkomst hebt, kun je er 180 duizend pond per jaar mee verdienen. Over Van Bekhovens Britten In van Bekhovens Britten praten Lia van Bekhoven en Connor Clerx elke week over de grootste nieuwsonderwerpen en de belangrijkste ontwikkelingen in het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Van Brexit naar binnenlandse politiek, van de Royals tot de tabloids. Waarom fascineert het VK Nederlanders meer dan zo veel andere Europese landen? Welke rol speelt het vooralsnog Verenigd Koninkrijk in Europa, nu het woord Brexit uit het Britse leven lijkt verbannen, maar de gevolgen van de beslissing om uit de EU te stappen iedere dag duidelijker worden? De Britse monarchie, en daarmee de staat, staat voor grote veranderingen na de dood van Queen Elisabeth en de kroning van haar zoon Charles. De populariteit van het Koningshuis staat op een dieptepunt. Hoe verandert de Britse monarchie onder koning Charles, en welke gevolgen heeft dat voor de Gemenebest? In Van Bekhovens Britten analyseren Lia en Connor een Koninkrijk met tanende welvaart, invloed en macht. De Conservatieve Partij leverde veertien jaar op rij de premier, maar nu heeft Labour onder Keir Starmer de teugels in handen. Hoe ziet het VK er onder Keir Starmer uit? En hoe gaan de ‘gewone’ Britten, voor zover die bestaan, daar mee om? Al deze vragen en meer komen aan bod in Van Bekhovens Britten. Een kritische blik op het Verenigd Koninkrijk, waar het een race tussen Noord-Ierland en Schotland lijkt te worden wie zich het eerst af kan scheiden van het VK. Hoe lang blijft het Koninkrijk verenigd? Na ruim 45 jaar onder de Britten heeft Lia van Bekhoven een unieke kijk op het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Als inwoner, maar zeker geen anglofiel, heeft ze een scherpe blik op het nieuws, de politiek, de monarchie en het dagelijkse leven aan de overkant van de Noordzee. Elke woensdag krijg je een nieuwe podcast over het leven van Van Bekhovens Britten in je podcastapp. Scherpe analyses, diepgang waar op de radio geen tijd voor is en een flinke portie humor.

At ExCeL London last week, ManageEngine, the IT management division of Zoho Corporation, announced a major expansion across the United Kingdom and Ireland. The region is now the company's second-largest market worldwide, accounting for ten per cent of global revenue and growing at twenty per cent year on year. For CEO Rajesh Ganesh, the success in the UK and Ireland is both strategic and symbolic. "These markets have always been early adopters of technology," he says. "They were among the first to invest in large-scale digital infrastructure. Today, the focus is on how to get the best return on those investments, how to keep systems running, how to measure productivity, and how to stay secure." ManageEngine growth planned for the UK and Ireland Security is now central to ManageEngine's business. As more companies move to hybrid or fully digital operations, the attack surface expands. Regulations such as GDPR have also raised the stakes. "Regulation is really about evidence," Ganesh explains. "You must always be ready to show that you follow best practices, who has access to what, what happened, and when. That's what our products do. They make that evidence available in real time." ManageEngine operates in 190 countries and has evolved with the industry it serves. Founded in 1996 by engineers who left Bell Labs and Qualcomm to return to India, the original business built software for telecom manufacturers. After the dotcom collapse in 2001, the company pivoted, deciding to build software that could manage any IT infrastructure, not just those of telcos. That decision gave birth to ManageEngine. "We wanted to build a global product company out of India," Ganesh says. "Why should innovation only come from Silicon Valley?" From ten employees in 1996, ManageEngine has grown to a team of six thousand within Zoho's eighteen thousand-strong organisation. The company's core customers are CIOs and IT leaders responsible for keeping modern enterprises secure, compliant, and operational. "Every business today is a digital business," Ganesh says. "Our role is to help them manage that reality." The firm's growth is driven by its end-to-end model. Rather than offering point solutions, ManageEngine provides a single integrated platform covering service management, cybersecurity, compliance, and automation. "Our customers don't want to manage multiple vendors," Ganesh says. "They want one system of record. That's been our vision from the beginning." ManageEngine competes across several categories, from ServiceNow and Atlassian in IT service management to Microsoft in endpoint control, but Ganesh is careful not to define the company purely by competition. "We've always built rather than acquired," he says. "Our technology, support, and cloud infrastructure are all in-house. We even run our own data centres. It's slower, yes, but it keeps us close to our customers and their challenges." That proximity is both cultural and operational. ManageEngine's technical support sits alongside its engineering teams; they travel together, visit customers, and feed insights directly into product development. "We don't outsource," Ganesh says simply. "We believe in face-to-face interaction. Our customers tell us again and again how much they value that." The UK office is in Milton Keynes, and the company operates data centres in the UK, Amsterdam, and Ireland, an investment that proved essential after Brexit. "When the UK left the EU, certain clients, especially in government and healthcare, required data to be hosted locally," Ganesh explains. "We responded immediately by building the infrastructure here." An Irish office is likely to follow. "It makes sense," he says. "We already have a data centre there and a growing customer base. Ireland will be an important part of our regional expansion." The company's long-term approach is deliberate. ManageEngine prioritises resilience over speed, preferring to build self-sufficient systems with minimal external de...

Nederland is de enige democratie ter wereld waar een dode politicus met een fantoompartij bij Tweede Kamerverkiezingen ooit 26 zetels won. Nederland is evenzeer befaamd om miljoenen burgers die, voorafgaande aan de verkiezingen, met opgeheven vinger en grote stelligheid beweren dat het dit keer onmogelijk wordt om een coalitie te vormen. En Nederland is een land waar zo’n coalitie er altijd komt. Nooit niet. Kan soms even duren, maar een kniesoor die daarop let. Nederland is ook verslaafd aan clichés die, altijd in een wat andere variant, blijven terugkeren. Zoals ‘strategisch stemmen’ – wat dat ook moge betekenen. Ander voorbeeld: sinds de Tweede Wereldoorlog is er geen dag verstreken zonder woningnood. Met, net als nu, elke keer weer nieuwe schijnoplossingen. In de jaren 50 en 60 bedacht de regering ‘woningwetwoningen’, 55 vierkante meter oppervlakte, allemaal identiek, tot aan de voorgeschreven keukenkastjes toe. Armoe troef en het hielp geen zier. De eerste gastarbeiders , zoals ze toen nog heetten, werden in de jaren 50 en 60 door het bedrijfsleven uit Italië, Spanje, Marokko en Turkije gehaald, vaak via koppelbazen, de voorlopers van mensensmokkelaars. Sindsdien hebben we een migratieprobleem. Als een volgend kabinet woningnood en migratieproblemen kan oplossen, zou dat een historisch unicum zijn. Maar hebben we wel zo veel te mopperen? Kijk eens naar de wereld om ons heen. Frankrijk, waar president Macron aan zijn achtste premier zit, met altijd dezelfde problemen: het pensioen verhogen van 62 naar 65, en de 32-urige werkweek verhogen naar 36 uur. Op het moment dat een premier dat onderwerp zelfs maar nóemt, ligt onmiddellijk Air France plat, en binnen een dag de rest van het bedrijfsleven. Of het Verenigd Koninkrijk, dat de prijs betaalt voor die idiote Brexit en sinds Tony Blair geen premier meer heeft gehad die het zorgstelsel draaiende hield. Nu stevent het af op de onvermijdelijke ondergang. Volgens onderzoek van de Würzburg Universiteit zijn 9 van de 27 EU-lidstaten falende democratieën. Nederland staat op de zevende plaats op de ranglijst – OK, maar zeker niet de top. Dat is dus binnen de EU. Buiten de EU kijken we maar even niet, al kost het moeite de ogen te sluiten voor Erdogan en Trump, die systematisch bezig zijn de democratie uit te schakelen. Deze dag is een dag om een vakje rood te kleuren. Ga dat doen. Hoeft niet uit overtuiging – mág natuurlijk best – maar meer uit hoop. Eén ding staat vast: dat kabinet komt er.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Our Prophets Are always Wrong: A Tribute to French Wishful Thinking : If our pundits were weather forecasters, we'd be wearing flip-flops in blizzards and parkas in heat waves. But don't worry: they don't predict weather, just elections. Which is convenient, since nobody seems to hold them accountable for being systematically wrong. Milei was supposed to collapse in Argentina? He's thriving. Kamala Harris elected in a landslide? Trump's back. Brexit impossible? 52% for Leave. At this point, you'd make more money betting against their predictions than investing in Treasury bonds. But no: after each fiasco, the same experts pick up their pens, their microphones, their confidence. Because they're never really wrong. It's the people who vote incorrectly.

Finally, Rachel Reeves cites the Brexit deal as one reason why the economy is failing and why she will have to raise taxes in the budget.

The UK economy presented a nuanced picture last week, with signs of stability tempered by persistent structural challenges. Inflation held steady at 3.8% year-on-year, below forecasts, fuelling speculation of a Bank of England (“BoE”) rate cut in December, with futures now pricing a 75% probability. However BoE officials remained cautious as Governor Andrew Bailey highlighted Brexit's drag on growth, while Monetary Policy Committee member Megan Greene resisted quarterly cuts. Economic data were mixed, with the Purchasing Managers' Index rising to a two-month high (51.1) and retail sales surprising positively, while borrowing hit a five-year peak and construction activity reached an 11-year low. Consumer sentiment improved slightly, but UK public inflation expectations over the next 12 months climbed to 4.2%, underscoring the BoE's delicate balancing act...Stocks featured:London Stock Exchange Group, Rentolkil Initial and FresnilloTo find out more about the investment management services offered by Walker Crips, please visit our website:https://www.walkercrips.co.uk/This podcast is intended to be Walker Crips Investment Management's own commentary on markets.

Assessing Mark Carney's Ability to Resolve US-Canada Tariff Conflict Conrad Black Conrad Black discusses Mark Carney, Canada's new Prime Minister and distinguished senior banker, regarding his talents to mediate the deteriorating US-Canada conversations over tariffs. Black, despite having significant differences with Carney on issues such as climate policy and Brexit, believes Carney's deep financial expertise, diplomatic personality, and well-informed perspective make him the right person to deescalate the conflict. Black expresses confidence that Carney can work toward a reasonable agreement that addresses both nations' concerns and prevents further economic damage. 1884 OTTAWA

Premierul polonez Donald Tusk lansează un semnal de alarmă. Într-un interviu acordat publicației britanice The Sunday Times, șeful guvernului de la Varșovia atrage atenția asupra apelurilor din Europa de reconstruire a legăturilor economice cu Rusia. Semnalul lui Tusk vine după ce o instanță poloneză a respins cererea de extrădare în Germania a unui ucrainean acuzat de participare la aruncarea în aer a conductei North Stream 2. Prim-ministrul polonez Donald Tusk avertizează că sfârșitul războiului Rusiei în Ucraina ar putea duce la eforturi de reluare a legăturilor economice cu Rusia - inclusiv la repornirea controversatului gazoduct Nord Stream 2. În timp ce Europa se află în fața posibilității unor negocieri de pace între Rusia și Ucraina, Tusk a descris apelurile politicienilor europeni de a reconstrui legăturile cu Moscova la sfârșitul războiului drept „un semnal de alarmă”. „Știu ce înseamnă atunci când cineva din Europa vrea să restabilească Nord Stream 2, să aibă afaceri bune cu petrolul și gazele din Rusia și așa mai departe”, a spus el. „Pentru mine, este întotdeauna ca un semnal de alarmă”, a spus Tusk într-un interviu acordat publicației The Sunday Times. Nord Stream 2, conducta  majoră care transportă gaze din Rusia în Germania prin Marea Baltică, este descrisă de critici ca o greșeală strategică și un simbol al concilierii Europei cu Moscova. Conducta a fost aruncată în aer în 2022, după ce președintele rus Vladimir Putin a ordonat invadarea pe scară largă a Ucrainei și după un ultimatum adresat Occidentului, în care cerea retragerea NATO pe aliniamentele din 1997. Un scafandru profesionist ucrainean a fost arestat ulterior pentru presupusa sa implicare în sabotaj. „Problema cu North Stream 2 nu este că a fost aruncată în aer. Problema este că a fost construită”, a scris Tusk pe rețelele de socializare X la începutul acestei luni, amintește Politico. În interviul acordat The Sunday Times, Tusk a declarat că o hotărâre a unei instanțe poloneze care blochează o cerere de extrădare a Germaniei pentru unul dintre suspecții de sabotaj Nord Stream înseamnă că Ucraina are dreptul de a ataca ținte legate de Rusia oriunde în Europa. Liderul polonez a criticat, de asemenea, automulțumirea Europei și subestimarea constantă a amenințărilor expansioniste ale lui Putin. „Vorbim despre sfârșitul erei iluziilor în Europa – prea târziu, mă tem. Prea târziu pentru a fi bine pregătiți pentru toate amenințările, dar nu prea târziu pentru a supraviețui”, a avertizat Tusk. De asemenea, în interviu, Tusk a descris ieșirea Marii Britanii din UE drept „una dintre cele mai mari greșeli din istoria noastră [europeană comună]” – la 10 ani după încercarea eșuată a prim-ministrului britanic David Cameron de a folosi referendumul Brexit ca pârghie pentru a obține concesii de la UE. „Și astăzi cred că a devenit mult mai vizibil”, a spus Tusk. Acesta a fost puternic implicat în prima fază a negocierilor Brexit în calitate de președinte al Consiliului European la acea vreme. „Mai ales după Brexit, polonezii și-au dat seama că situația obiectivă din Marea Britanie nu este mult mai bună decât în ​​Polonia. Știu, de asemenea, că mulți încep să părăsească Marea Britanie și să-și înceapă o viață aici, în Polonia”, a spus premierul Poloniei – o țară care a beneficiat enorm de pe urma apartenenței la Uniunea Europeană.  Ascultați rubrica ”Eurocronica”, cu Ovidiu Nahoi, în fiecare zi, de luni până vineri, de la 8.45 și în reluare duminica, de la 15.00, numai la RFI România

What does it take to walk away from a successful private-equity career and build your own real-estate investment platform from scratch? This week, I sat down with Anthony Maxwell-Jones, Founder & Managing Partner at Valorem Investment Partners, to unpack his journey from the early days at Mercer / Castleforge to founding Valorem - and what he's learned along the way about timing, risk, and backing yourself. Anthony has quietly built one of the UK's most interesting boutique investment platforms, deploying over £80 million across offices, student, residential, hotel, and strategic-land assets - achieving a 20 % IRR and 2.2× MOIC. We discuss how he spotted opportunity in the wake of the GFC, why he left a newly raised fund to go it alone, and the lessons that came from building Valorem through Brexit, Covid, and a volatile rate cycle. ⸻ Key Topics Covered In This Episode: ✅ From Castleforge to Valorem - How Anthony transitioned from analyst to entrepreneur ✅ The Leap - What gave him the confidence to found his own firm at 27 ✅ Covid Chaos - How a “malicious virus clause” saved a £90 million office scheme ✅ Family Office Capital - Building trust, track record & long-term partnerships ✅ Discipline & Patience - Investing through a stagnant market without pressure to deploy ✅ Future Focus - Why defence infrastructure and core-plus offices are on his radar ⸻ Oh, and one last thing… In every episode, I ask each guest: Who are the People, what Property, and which Place they'd invest in if they had £500 million at their disposal? Anthony's answer did not disappoint

Behind the gloss of London Fashion Week lies a complex machinery of trade, taxation and soft power. David Leigh Pemberton sits at its centre — navigating the delicate relationship between creativity and government as Deputy Director of Policy & Engagement at the British Fashion Council. In this episode, he unpacks how fashion's future depends on the policies shaping it — from the campaign for VAT-free shopping and the realities of post-Brexit trade to the quiet diplomacy that keeps British design globally relevant. We explore how advocacy sustains artistry, why creativity is one of Britain's most undervalued exports, and what it takes to make luxury a national priority rather than a cultural afterthought.

After successfully pushing for Brexit, political disruptor Nigel Farage announced his retirement.

The number of cars produced in the UK fell by a massive 27% last month, according to the industry body the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders. It says it's due to the cyber attack on Jaguar Land Rover that stopped production. Felicity Hannah asks how the sector might be able to recover.Our Friday panel looks back at the big economic stories of the week, including an inert inflation figure that has more than meets the eye behind it, and Rachel Reeves blaming Brexit for some of the UK's difficult economic circumstances.Plus, the most popular Netflix film of all time, Kpop Demon Hunters, is to make what the streaming service calls an "unprecedented" licensing deal for toys and games. One industry insider tells us just how big a deal it is.

A decade ago, the UK voted in a referendum to leave the European Union. It was the culmination of years of partisan arguments over membership. During that time, most newspapers in the UK took strong “leave” or “remain” positions in the stories they wrote. But were they less obviously partisan in their choice of pictures too? Wanyu Chung of University of Birmingham and CEPR was one of a team of researchers that used artificial intelligence to estimate the emotional impact of news images of politicians before and after the Brexit vote.

As Chancellor Rachel Reeves prepares for a tough Budget, a new narrative is emerging: it's all Brexit's fault. Ed Balls and George Osborne examine whether the 'Brexit blame game' is a smart political strategy or a 'backward-looking excuse' that voters won't buy. And they discuss if it's too late for Labour to build a compelling economic story.Then, the pair dive into the 'appalling' turmoil inside Keir Starmer's No. 10. Are 'staggering' and 'juvenile' briefings against the new Cabinet Secretary a sign of a government in chaos? And as the Prince Andrew saga dominates the headlines, they debate the 'endgame' for the Senior Royal and why George believes it's time for the Prime Minister to step in.Plus, with George reporting from San Francisco, the pair give their take on the AI boom. With 'eye-watering valuations' for companies like OpenAI, is the world on the verge of an AI bubble bursting?Thanks for listening. To get episodes early and ad-free join Political Currency Gold.

Les Irlandais sont appelés aux urnes. Ils voteront, vendredi 24 octobre, pour leur prochain président. Une fonction symbolique dans le pays, mais que l'actuel président, Michael D. Higgins, a su transformer en véritable tribune pour aborder les grands enjeux mondiaux, à commencer par la situation à Gaza. La question palestinienne a d'ailleurs animé la campagne, tout comme la réunification avec l'Irlande du Nord. Un sujet brûlant, et pour cause : près de deux tiers des Irlandais, et 60% des Nord-Irlandais, jugent essentiel de se préparer à ce rapprochement historique.  Après Belfast, c'est la deuxième plus grande ville d'Irlande du Nord : Derry ou Londonderry. C'est ici qu'ont grandi Daryl et Adam, cigarettes roulées à la bouche et écarteurs aux oreilles. A 25 ans, ils forment à eux deux Crack Pipe, un groupe de hip-hop. Ils sont nés après l'accord de paix du Vendredi saint en 1998 et n'ont donc jamais connu les violences du conflit. Pour eux, la réunification de l'Irlande n'est qu'une question de temps.  « Il y a un certain fossé entre les plus âgés et les jeunes, parce que Derry a beaucoup changé. Je crois que les gens veulent avancer, tourner la page et aller de l'avant. La frontière à elle seule entretient la division. »  Le changement dont parle Daryl a été illustré en 2022 par la victoire du Sinn Fein aux élections en Irlande du Nord. Une victoire historique pour ce parti, ancien bras politique de l'IRA, l'armée républicaine irlandaise, et qui a relancé le débat sur réunification de l'île.   Aujourd'hui, 60% des Nord-Irlandais s'y disent favorables. De l'autre côté de la frontière, c'est un espoir de longue date. Selon un sondage, 64% des citoyens de la République étaient pour fin 2023. Et l'évolution des Nord-Irlandais est importante pour eux, car ces derniers peuvent voter demain à la présidentielle s'ils résident en République d'Irlande.   Les promesses de nouvelles perspectives C'est le cas de Karl Duncan, 23 ans, qui a posé ses valises à Dublin il y a à peine deux mois. « Quand on grandit et qu'on vit en Irlande du Nord, les opportunités économiques ne sont pas très nombreuses, surtout en dehors de Belfast. Donc, pour beaucoup de jeunes du Nord, la réunification serait synonyme de nouvelles perspectives en nous rapprochant de l'Union européenne. »  Ross Neel, 29 ans, lui est avocat. Originaire de Belfast, il vit à Dublin depuis quelques années. Et à ceux, dans le Sud, qui redoutent le coût de la réunification et soulignent que l'Irlande du Nord est la province la plus pauvre du Royaume, Ross rétorque : « Dublin subit énormément de pression car il n'y a pas assez de logements ni d'infrastructures. À Belfast, en revanche, il y a de l'espace disponible. Il y a des choses que l'Irlande du Nord peut apporter à la République et qu'on ne mesure peut-être pas suffisamment. Par exemple, l'industrie de défense en Irlande du Nord pourrait bénéficier à la République qui est très faible dans ce domaine. »  Demain, le rêve longtemps si lointain d'une Irlande réunifiée pourrait donc enfin devenir réalité, entre les mains de la future présidente Catherine Connolly ou Heather Humphreys.  À lire aussiComment l'Irlande du Nord et la République d'Irlande continuent-elles à coexister, cinq ans après le Brexit?

In een zelden vertoonde stap heeft Prince Andrew onder druk van Koning Charles bekendgemaakt zijn koninklijke titels niet langer te gebruiken. Er lijkt geen einde re komen aan de stroom van nieuwe informatie over Andrews banden met Jeffrey Epstein en het vermeende misbruik van tenminste één minderjarig meisje, de inmiddels overleden Virginia Giuffre. In haar postuum verschenen biografie uitte ze opnieuw beschuldigingen van misbruik door de prins. Ondertussen duikt Andrew ook keer op keer op in de documenten rondom de Epstein-affaire in de Verenigde Staten. Het Britse koningshuis lijkt de boel niet langer te kunnen sussen, en neemt dus - relatief - rigoreuze stappen tegen Andrew. Volgens politici lang niet rigoreus genoeg. Het feit dat de prins zelf afstand mag doen van zijn titels, in plaats van dat ze van hem worden afgenomen, zet kwaad bloed. Ook nieuwe informatie over huurcontracten tussen Andrew en de kroon maken de monarchie niet populairder. De vraag is of deze stappen daar iets aan veranderen. Ook in deze aflevering Bijzonder bezoek in The Royal Albert Hall: de top van het Japanse sumoworstelen streek de afgelopen dagen neer in Londen voor meerdere uitverkochte shows.

Over Van Bekhovens Britten In van Bekhovens Britten praten Lia van Bekhoven en Connor Clerx elke week over de grootste nieuwsonderwerpen en de belangrijkste ontwikkelingen in het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Van Brexit naar binnenlandse politiek, van de Royals tot de tabloids. Waarom fascineert het VK Nederlanders meer dan zo veel andere Europese landen? Welke rol speelt het vooralsnog Verenigd Koninkrijk in Europa, nu het woord Brexit uit het Britse leven lijkt verbannen, maar de gevolgen van de beslissing om uit de EU te stappen iedere dag duidelijker worden? De Britse monarchie, en daarmee de staat, staat voor grote veranderingen na de dood van Queen Elisabeth en de kroning van haar zoon Charles. De populariteit van het Koningshuis staat op een dieptepunt. Hoe verandert de Britse monarchie onder koning Charles, en welke gevolgen heeft dat voor de Gemenebest? In Van Bekhovens Britten analyseren Lia en Connor een Koninkrijk met tanende welvaart, invloed en macht. De Conservatieve Partij leverde veertien jaar op rij de premier, maar nu heeft Labour onder Keir Starmer de teugels in handen. Hoe ziet het VK er onder Keir Starmer uit? En hoe gaan de ‘gewone’ Britten, voor zover die bestaan, daar mee om? Al deze vragen en meer komen aan bod in Van Bekhovens Britten. Een kritische blik op het Verenigd Koninkrijk, waar het een race tussen Noord-Ierland en Schotland lijkt te worden wie zich het eerst af kan scheiden van het VK.

As Labour prepares its first Budget, can the party really blame Brexit for Britain's sluggish productivity – and will voters be convinced? We also ask why Britain still isn't building enough homes, and whether a new environmental levy risks making the crisis worse.Plus: in an age of short-form video and fractured attention, where have all the great communicators gone? With Thatcher's centenary in mind, the panel explores what it takes to cut through in modern politics – and who, if anyone, is getting it right.Marc Sidwell is joined by writer and strategist John Oxley and former Downing Street communications adviser Robert Midgley for a sharp look at the week's big political questions.Stay informed with CapX's unmissable daily briefings from the heart of Westminster.

À quelques jours de Art Basel Paris, le rendez-vous majeur du marché de l'art contemporain, le monde de l'art vit une période de bouleversements. Les grandes foires se multiplient, les collectionneurs se globalisent, les maisons de vente s'internationalisent — les équilibres changent. La place de Paris se renforce, profitant à la fois du Brexit et de l'effervescence culturelle post-Covid. Les pays du Golfe, eux, investissent massivement dans les musées, les fondations et les foires, cherchant à transformer le soft power pétrolier en influence culturelle. Et puis, de l'autre côté de l'Atlantique, le climat politique américain — marqué par le retour de Donald Trump et une certaine crispation identitaire — pourrait peser sur le marché et sur la liberté des artistes. Pour l'heure, le marché américain n'en reste pas moins toujours fort. Comment se porte aujourd'hui le marché de l'art contemporain ? Quelles sont les nouvelles places fortes ? Quels artistes dominent la scène ? Et comment les bouleversements politiques, économiques et culturels redessinent-ils la carte mondiale de l'art ?

The UK's first female prime minister undoubtedly transformed the country as she achieved electoral success her Conservative successors could only dream of.Evidence of her enduring influence is the fact that it's not just Tories who claim a debt to her but also opposing politicians, with Rachel Reeves recently branding herself the "iron chancellor".She was also a very divisive figure, with lasting anger over her handling of the miners' strike and the controversial poll tax.So, what is Baroness Thatcher's legacy to both her party and the country? What would she have made of Brexit and the rise of Reform UK? Will she still be talked about in another 100 years?Niall Paterson is joined by Sky's chief political correspondent Jon Craig.Producers: Tom Gillespie and Soila Apparicio ​​​​​​​Editor: Wendy Parker

We compare British, French and Spanish attitudes to each other, Erasmus memories, Brexit, national clichés, and even which country gets blamed when things go wrong.

"Too little too late", that's what we're hearing from some farmers who've already ploughed up and planted fields that were being farmed for nature. They say this is because the government took too long to come up with an extension to their environmental funding. A House of Lords Committee says the Windsor Framework, the post-Brexit agreement between the UK and EU that's meant to simplify trade between Great Britain and Northern Ireland, is "overwhelmingly complex". Powys Council has just closed a consultation on plans for a new farm policy, which includes the possibility of selling some of its council owned farms. The Council says incomes are too low and maintenance costs too high on some of its farms, but local council farm tenants hope farming will remain a key part of council plans. Presented by Caz Graham and produced by Beatrice Fenton.

Rachel Reeves has admitted that next month's Autumn Budget will see Labour raise taxes on the wealthy.As she was heading to Washington for meetings with the IMF, The Chancellor told Sky News she was “looking at tax and spending” ahead of the November 26th fiscal event, and then went on to tell The Guardian that taxes on the wealthy “will be part of the story”.On today's Daily T podcast, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley are joined by Sunday Telegraph editor Allister Heath, who calls Reeves's plans “delusional”, that her blaming Brexit for economic stagnation proves Labour “doesn't understand Britain” and says that “the moment you start saying to wealthy people ‘we're going to confiscate your money', it's the beginning of the end”.► Sign up to our most popular newsletter, From the Editor.

Het B-woord is uit de taboesfeer. Jarenlang wilde premier Keir Starmer niets negatiefs zeggen over de uittreding uit de EU en de financiele gevolgen die daarbij kwamen kijken. Nu is er een duidelijke kentering te zien, want Starmer heeft zich in korte tijd tot drie keer toe duidelijk uitgesproken. Wat is er veranderd? In Nigel Farage heeft hij een zondebok gevonden. Starmer kan naar hem wijzen als oorzaak van de Brexit zonder plan, en het gat van 100 miljard per jaar dat die Brexit heeft geslagen. En dat komt hem niet slecht uit, enkele weken voor zijn regering met een begroting komt waarbij belastingverhoging onvermijdelijk lijkt. Ook in deze aflevering Michelle Mone klom met een grote mond en hard werken op van working class tot eigenaar van een lingerie-imperium, de titel barones en een zetel in het Britse Hogerhuis. Maar na een schimmige deal met de conservatieve regering van Boris Johnson waarbij voor honderden miljoenen aan onbruikbare beschermende kleding voor ziekenhuismedewerkers dreigt ze alles kwijt te raken. En een bijzondere Britse hobby: het kweken van reuzegroenten. Waarom zijn de Britten daar zo succesvol in?

Is the modern Conservative Party a repudiation of the Cameron-Osborne years? George Osborne is challenged by Ed Davey, who asks him to consider whether Kemi Badenoch's leadership means there's no place for him in the party he once helped lead.Then, Ed Balls sets the record straight on one of New Labour's defining policies, revealing the true story behind making the Bank of England independent and taking credit from both Gordon Brown and Tony Blair.Also on the agenda: the breaking of unwritten rules during party conference season, the politics of attending the Women's Rugby World Cup final, and the Brexit parallels of trying to reform the ECHR.To get episodes early and ad-free, join Political Currency Gold or the Kitchen Cabinet:

In today's episode David talks to Alan Renwick from UCL's Constitution Unit about the pros and cons of referendums. When does a democratic question need to be put direct to the people? Do some countries do it better than others? How can referendums be used to open up political debate? And how can we avoid a rerun of the pitfalls of the Brexit referendum? There are just a few tickets left for the 3rd film in our autumn film season at the Regent Street cinema on Thursday 9th October: a screening of Rosa Luxemburg, followed by a live recording of PPF with philosopher and writer Lea Ypi.
