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.

Our co-pilots, energised from their trip down to earth for the live show at the Battle of Ideas festival last week, are back on the Rocket to try and make sense of a week of madness!They address the growing discontent following a string of high-profile incidents involving illegal migrants, most recently in Uxbridge.The discussion turns into a blistering attack on the Home Office and the entire Civil Service, who the co-pilots argue, are actively stifling political reform and preventing any government—regardless of party—from delivering functioning public services or stopping the boats.Strapping into the rocket this week is Conservative MP Helen Whately, who joins to discuss the urgent need for benefits system reform to encourage young people into work and end their reliance on state support.Meanwhile Allison addresses the historic collapse of Labour in its heartlands in the Caerphilly by-election last week, signalling what could be a death knell for Labour in Wales.Sign up to our most popular newsletter, From the Editor.

Folge 227: Ich nutze das Zitat "Schlechte Zeiten schaffen starke Menschen. Starke Menschen, gute Zeiten. Gute Zeiten schaffen schwache Menschen und schwache Menschen schaffen schlechte Zeiten", um unsere aktuelle Situation zu beleuchten. Es bereitet mir Sorge, dass unser hoher Wohlstand uns zu schwachen Menschen macht, die sich zu sehr auf individuelle Befindlichkeiten wie Gendern, Homeoffice oder ‚Sinn im Job‘ konzentrieren. Dein Job muss dir nicht jeden Tag Spaß machen! Diszipliniere dich, Dinge anzupacken, auch wenn sie unangenehm sind, und dankbar für das zu sein, was wir haben. Wenn du deinen individuellen Zipperlein zu viel Raum gibst, gefährdest du nicht nur deinen eigenen Erfolg, sondern auch den Wohlstand der Gemeinschaft.

Listeners on the Best of Spectator playlist can enjoy a section of the latest episode of Quite right! but for the full thing please seek out the Quite right! channel. Just search ‘Quite right!' wherever you are listening now.This week on Quite right!: the great Home Office meltdown. After a week of fiascos – from the accidental release of a convicted migrant to the collapse of the grooming gangs inquiry – Michael and Maddie ask: is the Home Office now beyond repair? Why is Britain's most important department also its most dysfunctional? And what does it say about a civil service more obsessed with ‘listening circles' and ‘wellbeing surveys' than actually running the country?Then to Westminster, where Jess Phillips faces fury over the grooming gangs inquiry. Are ministers diluting the investigation to avoid awkward truths about race and culture? Michael argues that empathy is no substitute for justice – and that Labour still can't bring itself to confront the problem honestly.Next, Maddie shares an extraordinary personal story of her mother's nightmare tenant – thirty dogs, tens of thousands in damages, and zero help from the state – as she and Michael debate whether Britain's social contract is breaking down, and if new housing laws will only make things worse.Finally, the big news of the week: Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau's hard-launch romance. But what do Justin Trudeau's sartorial choices say about the state of politics and pop? And who would be their British equivalent?Produced by Oscar Edmondson.  Hosted on Acast.

Why did the Home Office pay Hadush Kebatu £500 to leave the country?  Sky News has spoken to migrant sex offender Hadush Kebatu hours after he was deported to Ethiopia. He claims he tried to hand himself in to police after he was released accidentally from prison last Friday but they ignored him.     Responding to Kebatu's claims, the Metropolitan Police told Sky News: "The Met is not aware of any evidence to support the claims that Kebatu approached officers on Saturday morning.  "The actions of officers who responded to the sighting of him on Sunday morning show how seriously they were taking the manhunt. Kebatu's actions on the morning of his arrest were more like those of someone trying to avoid officers, not trying to hand himself in."   Gareth Barlow speaks to home affairs journalist Danny Shaw and Sky News correspondent Ashna Hurynag - who has been in Epping, Essex, where Kebatu sexually assaulted a 14-year-old girl and a woman.  Producers: Tom Gillespie and Araminta Parker Editor: Wendy Parker

Does Shabana Mahmood, like Dominic Cummings before her, believe that the Home Office is a broken, dysfunctional bureaucratic institution that needs a radical overhaul?    In this week's episode Ken Macdonald KC and Tim Owen KC discuss these and other questions with the former BBC Home Affairs Correspondent and former adviser to Yvette Cooper, Danny Shaw.  The trio respond to the publication of the 2023 review of the effectiveness of the Home Office commissioned by former Home Secretary Suella Braverman in November 2022. See this link for access to the report -https://nicktimothy.com/report-by-nick-timothy-mp-on-the-home-office-exposes-a-culture-of-defeatism-and-poor-management/    After debating the implications of Nick Timothy's Review, they discuss the announcement by the Metropolitan Police Commissioner, in the wake of the farcical arrest of comedian Graham Linehan and the decision that he will face no charges, that the Met will no longer investigate Non Crime Hate Incidents (NCHIs).  Will this lead to a nationwide change in policy?  The Timothy review also finds that the Home Office has a culture of defeatism with immigration staff feeling that failure is inevitable in enforcement of immigration policy and the department's ability to deliver has worsened rather than improved. Anyone reading Timothy's findings can well understand why Home Office officials were so keen to ensure that they never saw the light of day,  but does this simply reinforce the need for intense, honest public debate about a key area of Government?  Finally, the duo revisit the Chinese spying case  and make clear their bemusement at the explanations given by DPP Stephen Parkinson and First Treasury Counsel, Tom Little KC for their decision to drop it. --  Covering the critical intersections of politics and law in the UK with expert commentary on high-profile legal cases, political controversies, prisons and sentencing, human rights law, current political events and the shifting landscape of justice and democracy.

Today it's been announced that hundreds of asylum seekers are to be moved to military sites as the Government aims to end the use of hotels to house small boat migrants. However, defence minister Luke Pollard admitted that using military sites could cost the taxpayer more than asylum hotels. Yesterday Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer said he was “frustrated and angry” about the soaring cost of the asylum system, after a damning inquiry by the home affairs committee found that Home Office mismanagement had “squandered” billions on housing migrants in hotels.

Another week, another immigration crisis. A powerful parliamentary committee has accused the Home Office – for this government and the last – of squandering billions of pounds on asylum accommodation and overseeing a ‘failed, chaotic and expensive' system. The report came days after the barely believable revelation that the convicted sex offender whose case sparked protests at the Bell hotel in Epping was accidentally let out of prison on Friday instead of being deported. He is now back in custody. Pippa Crerar and Eleni Courea discuss the ongoing firefighting at the Home Office and its impact on the public consciousness. Plus, what now for Labour after a crushing defeat in Caerphilly and the election of its new deputy leader, Lucy Powell? Finally, we go back to the China spy row – will this be the week the mystery is cracked open? • Send your thoughts and questions to politicsweeklyuk@theguardian.com.

Today a parliamentary report has sharply criticised the Home Office's management of the asylum system that has led to "billions" of pounds being wasted.

In dieser Folge haben wir mal wieder Peter M. Wald, Professor für Personalmanagement an der HTWK Leipzig, zu Gast. Peter hat kürzlich das Buch „Deskless Work und Personalmanagement: Ideen, Praxiserfahrungen und Möglichkeiten zur Flexibilisierung der Arbeit“ herausgegeben. Wir sprechen mit Peter über die Frage, warum rund 75 % der Beschäftigten weltweit, die sogenannten Deskless Worker, in vielen Digitalisierungs- und New-Work-Debatten bislang kaum vorkommen. Peter erklärt, wie Unternehmen auch für Menschen ohne Schreibtisch moderne Arbeitsmodelle, mehr Flexibilität und vor allem Wertschätzung schaffen können, von smarter Schichtplanung über digitale Kommunikation bis hin zu neuen Benefit-Ansätzen: - Wer sind die Deskless Worker und warum sind sie so wichtig? - Was können Unternehmen tun, um Arbeitszeit und Kommunikation zu flexibilisieren? - Warum sind Wertschätzung und Vertrauen entscheidend für Bindung und Zufriedenheit? - Welche Rolle können Digitalisierung und KI für die Arbeit ohne Schreibtisch spielen? - Welche guten Beispiele gibt es von Unternehmen, die sich um Deskless Worker kümmern?

Leaders around the world have welcomed the ceasefire agreement. News of the deal was greeted with huge outbursts of joy in Hostages Square in Tel Aviv, where families have congregated for two years pressing for the release of Hamas captives.

Since the deadly October 7th attacks on Israel by Hamas, the Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza estimates that more than 67-thousand people have been killed by Israel's offensive with nearly a third of the dead under the age of 18. But there is also anxiety that, yet again, the ceasefire may not last. In other news, the former Radio 1 DJ, Tim Westwood, has been charged with rape and sexual assault.

Whilst a certain noisy northern mayor has positioned himself as the problem child of conference 2025, The Spectator finds another Labour politician far more interesting. All around Liverpool the newsstands are decorated by the image of the Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood, dubbed the ‘Terminator' by Tim Shipman in the most recent issue of The Spectator. As one strategist notes: ‘Shabana is not afraid to use power. That's what we need.'In this special edition of Coffee House Shots we present a wide-ranging in-conversation between Shabana Mahmood and Spectator editor Michael Gove. Listen for: how to tackle the ‘Boriswave', whether the Home Office is fit for purpose, Shabana's compelling case for digital ID cards and her response to Keir Starmer's claim that Reform are ‘racist'.Produced by Oscar Edmondson and Megan McElroy.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.
