In this episode of Catch22Minutes, we'll be discussing the topic of green skills. As we say in our manifesto, we want to see the next government commit to ensuring the UK is a true skills hub, identifying the skills required for jobs of the future and equipping the workforce to meet those needs. Specifically, we are asking the government to increase the number of green skills training courses and amend more courses to be green, such as lifetime skills, boot camps and apprenticeships.  To discuss the importance of green skills and jobs of the future, Stella is joined by Jeevun Sandher, Head of Economics at the New Economics Foundation, and the Labour Parliamentary candidate for Loughborough.   Learn more about our Manifesto: https://bit.ly/3F7KCf3

Thousands of London households are being hit with a fresh property squeeze as lenders hike interest rates again.Now, according to financial data firm Moneyfacts, the average two-year fixed-rate mortgage deal costs £35 more per month than it did a couple of weeks ago, following successive Bank of England base rate rises.It comes after TSB withdrew its ten-year fixed-rate, while Coventry Building Society is set to increase prices for two, three and five-year deals.The hikes are being fuelled by inflation figures stuck stubbornly at 8.7 per cent.Meanwhile, a record fifth of first-time buyers signed up to 35-year mortgages - so will be paying off property debt past retirement and into their 70s.The Leader podcast's joined by Dr Jeevun Sandher, who's head of economics at the New Economics Foundation and Labour's prospective parliamentary candidate for Loughborough.

Note to listeners: this episode was prerecorded in September 2022. Over the last five episodes we've looked at how the UK is being torn apart. Our economy is built on huge inequalities: between working people and big business, between families and fossil fuel giants, between tenants and landlords, and between marginalised groups and law enforcement. Are such massive divisions in our society inevitable? Can we share the wealth hoarded by the rich? And what do we need to do to build a better future?

“Unacceptable” Opinions Have you ever felt that you can't say what you really think, that your honest opinions have become somehow unacceptable? It's a common complaint that freedom of speech is being restricted, that more and more views have become inadmissible or rejected as intolerable. On social media, people expressing thoughts that would have hardly raised an eyebrow a generation ago, are viciously attacked and branded as bigots. If that is a problem - and opinions differ - the government may be about to make it worse. Its Online Safety Bill, going through Parliament just now, is aimed at making the UK the safest place in the world to go online, but there are concerns that it could involve more censorship and less freedom. It is surely good to have a diverse range of views openly and freely expressed in public, important for democracy for honest discourse and a sure sign of true freedom of speech. But others feel that cleaning up the public space of unsavoury, prejudiced and hateful views makes for a more civilised society. It creates safer, more respectful places for everyone. Offensive comments that were shamelessly expressed in the past about, for example black, gay or trans people are rarer now. Is this evidence that modern values like equality are being widely embraced, or a sign that people feel muzzled and their views, far from going away, are festering into conspiracy theories, extremism and even the threat of violence? Does it matter if the range of views we can express becomes narrower? With Eric Heinze, James Bloodworth, Joe Mulhall and Jeevun Sandher.
