The government's announced a trade deal with Egypt which it says could be worth £250 million in dairy exports ports over the next five years. As part of the deal, new regulations around the Halal certification of dairy produce going into Egypt will not be applied, avoiding what would have been a costly trade barrier. Finding a market for every part of an animal, not just the popular cuts like bacon and steak, is known as carcass balance and it's something we're talking about all this week. We visit Redhill Farm in Lincolnshire to see how they find out how they manage it. The auroch is regarded as the wild ancestor of the modern day cattle we see on farms today. They were huge and used to roam Europe through to the Bronze age. Excavations in the Yorkshire Dales have unearthed what may be the last recorded aurochs in the UK. We speak to farmer Tom Lord who lives in the area and is a passionate archaeologist. He's often called on to advise potholers who find auroch bones when they're exploring underground caves.

Now the radio propagation report, compiled by G0KYA, G3YLA and G4BAO on Thursday the 7th of August Over the last week, we had nearly ideal solar conditions for HF propagation. These included low geomagnetic indices and a reasonable solar flux index, hovering around the 150 mark. Other solar events of note included six M-class solar flares. The only stumbling block is the time of year, with summer seeing lower maximum usable frequencies, or MUFs, and poorer propagation due to changes in ionospheric chemistry. We will have to wait another month or so to see conditions pick up. The main HF DX this week has been T30TTT from Western Kiribati, mainly on FT8 and CW and focusing on the 20 and 17m bands. TJ1GD from Cameroon was worked on the 17m band using FT8. E51KEE on the South Cook Islands was logged on the 17 and 15m bands using CW. And finally, AH6KO in Hawaii was worked on the 15m band using CW. But this may all be set to change. A coronal mass ejection observed on Tuesday, the 5th, may deliver a glancing blow to the Earth's geomagnetic field. This may also coincide with an expected high-speed stream from a very large coronal hole on the Sun's surface. NOAA predicts that the Kp index could rise to 5 or 6. The hole is so large and elongated that we could see unsettled conditions occurring in the coming week. NOAA predicts unsettled geomagnetic conditions from the 11th to the 14th of August. It also predicts more unsettled conditions from the 18th to the 22nd, with a maximum Kp index of 5. Expect reduced MUFs and poor HF conditions, especially for paths over the poles. And now the VHF and up propagation news from G3YLA and G4BAO The main setting for the weather pattern over the next week is a tendency for high pressure in the south and lower pressure to the north of Britain. There may be some input from a low over France around the middle of the week. This might introduce some thundery showers and a chance of rain scatter on the GHz bands. Meanwhile, occasional weak frontal systems will bring patchy rain to the far northwest, but probably not so good for rain scatter opportunities. The Tropo at this time of year can be very good around the coasts and occasionally inland overnight. However, it tends to weaken inland during the heating of the day. Out at sea, temperatures remain fairly constant and maintain an ideal cool, moist layer at the sea surface overlain by a layer of warm, dry air from the land. This provides Tropo 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Mid-August is good for meteor scatter with the peak of the Perseids on the Tuesday night of the 12th and 13th. Apart from digital-mode QSOs, it's good for late summer evening sky watching. It is fascinating to listen to the VHF SSB meteor scatter frequencies while watching to get the full experience. It's a broad shower, so don't worry if you must pick a night either side of the peak. The chances of an aurora are not zero, with further minor alerts to remind us that it's worth checking. The main mode for DX is probably still going to be Sporadic-E, which has roughly another four weeks to run. Don't expect something every day, as it tends to become more random towards the latter part of the season. Moon declination is negative, but rising again, so Moon window lengths and peak elevation will increase. Path losses are also falling, reaching a minimum at perigee on Thursday, the 14th of August. 144MHz sky noise is low to moderate all next week. And that's all from the propagation team this week.

  Without question one of the best ambient record labels in the world is Whitelabrecs . I've known label owner, Harry Towell, for a long time, going back to his netlabel days with Audio Gourmet. It's been grand to follow along as Harry has grown musically and the label has become a juggernaut. That's why I am beyond excited to present a guest mix from Harry. The bonus is it's an all vinyl mix.  Here's a little blurb from Harry about his mix: "My name's Harry and I make music as Glåsbird. I'm from Lincolnshire in the UK and I also run a record label called Whitelabrecs. The label has been going since 2016 and specialises in limited edition runs of vinyl effect CDrs in classic vinyl sleeve formats, such as the gatefold LP and mini 45. Vinyl is a massive inspiration for this label and this all started in my earlier years in music, when I was a DJ. I'd collect a range of Deep House, Techno and Downtempo records and mix these at gigs, at a time when CD-Js and digital mixing was becoming the norm. I bought my Technics 1210s in 2004 as a second-hand purchase from another DJ. I've kept them all this time and they had deteriorated to the point where the tonearms would get stuck and so they had been gathering dust for a few years. This year I got them repaired and serviced, replacing the cartridges and styli - now they're in perfect working order! Since my former DJ years my music taste has changed considerably and this has been developed over the course of the last 15+ years, running the Audio Gourmet, Tessellate and Whitelabrecs labels which focus on quieter Ambient music. I'll be doing more of these vinyl mixes from time to time and also have my first live DJ gig confirmed for September. I recorded this vinyl mix one lunchtime after selecting and planning the first 10 tracks using the Camelot Harmonic Mixing method, which is a great way to create a natural-feeling melodic flow. It is a pretty reliable workflow but sometimes doesn't translate – see the transition between tracks 2 and 3 as an example! I was enjoying this mix so much, that from tracks 11 onwards I switched to mixing on the fly, selecting tracks by ear.   I'd call this an Ambient mix overall but there's a nice range of sub-styles in this selection, from drones and electronica, electro-acoustic and modern classical to folk and ethnic sounds." Thanks, Harry, for creating this excellent set.

If you've ever felt the pull of your credit card after a tough week, found your space overwhelmed with impulse buys, or wondered why shopping didn't fill the hole, it's time for a recalibration. I sat down with Alison Fish, Professional Organiser and founder of Tidy AF UK, to unpack how compulsive spending and clutter were symptoms, not solutions, and how she turned it all around. Alison now works 1:1 with clients across Lincolnshire & Yorkshire, guiding them from chaos to clarity by understanding their habits, motivations, and money mindset. We're digging into: How Alzheimer's in her family exposed patterns of hoarding and overbuying and made Alison re-evaluate her own spending Why a full attic made her go “enough” and how she broke free from buying clutter Why clutter is never just about “stuff” it always has a deeper root cause How honest conversations about debt can unlock real progress (yes, even with your bank) Tips to stop impulse shopping: curate your feed, wait before purchasing, and ask yourself “Do I really need this?” The power of saving with intention, how budgeting for goals helps prevent frivolous spending Why cheap, fast fashion is a false economy, and how buying better quality boosts long-term happiness Educating yourself on money, buying habits, and responsibility, because no one else is going to do it for you How decluttering isn't just aesthetic, it's emotional, financial, and life-changing The critical role of community and expert support in holding yourself accountable This episode is for anyone who's realised that more stuff wasn't the answer and feels ready to shift spending habits, reduce clutter, and reclaim control of their space, money, and mind.

As MPs prepare to vote on the revised welfare bill, we delve into what it means. Sean Farrington also has the latest on the Lindsey oil refinery in Lincolnshire after its owner went into administration. And we look at how live music in brought in 23.5 million music tourists across the country last year, as artists played sold-out shows - resulting in a cash boom to the economy.

Jo Kempton is Head of Lincolnshire Pension Fund, where she has spent most of her career in various roles, including as the manager of an internal UK equity portfolio. She is an active participant on the local government pension scheme circuit.  Our conversation starts with Jo's early career and how she ended up pursuing a role in pensions. We speak about her work on the stock picking side, and discuss whether the market backdrop has changed since then for UK equities. We ask then whether this stint in internal equity investing has informed her approach to other active asset managers and the challenges they face today. Moving now to the whole fund oversight that Jo provides, we discuss the future of pooling, and its benefits as well as the importance of collaboration and knowledge sharing, particularly in light of the challenges facing all public funds today. Finally we reflect on a career of public service and the wisdom gathered over those years.Thank you to GCM Grosvenor and Resolute Investment Managers, Inc. for sponsoring Series 3 of 2025.GCM Grosvenor is a global alternative asset management firm with a longstanding commitment to supporting small, emerging, and diverse investment managers.

We're on a break at the moment to plan, research, and write all sorts of things, but, to fill the gap, this is the first of two new compilation episodes containing a trio of stories from across our earlier series. We have entitled this episode “Three Monsters” because these are tales about seemingly inhuman creatures from English folklore with decidedly ill-intent. They are our second-lap Derbyshire story, Crooker, and our recent Wiltshire story, The Old Creature, and our recent Lincolnshire story, Nanny Rutt – and much love to Dr Rory Waterman, whose own take on Nanny Rutt appears in his recent poetry collection Come Here To This Gate which Martin and I both heartily recommend.We really hope you enjoy them, and will be back on Monday with our next Lang Fairy Tale! The Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcast Hosted on Acast.

Farmers say they're relieved that feared cuts to nature-friendly farming budgets didn't materialise during the chancellor's spending review. More money has been allocated to farming schemes, though Defra's budget itself is facing cuts of 2.7% in real terms. We speak to the Wildlife Trusts and the National Farmers' Union.The biggest event in the arable farming calendar - Cereals - is being held in Lincolnshire. We speak to the host, and learn about new drone technology to help spray delicate crops.And Defra has announced badger culls will continue in 11 areas of England. The Labour government has pledged to end them by the end of the parliament, instead stepping up vaccination of badgers and other measures. But the chief vet has advised it's too soon to end culling.Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Sally Challoner.

In this episode, UK farm leaders voice dismay after three major British supermarkets start selling beef from Australia, Uruguay and New Zealand.Is the government's spending review really better than expected when it comes to farming and the environment?We discuss the implications of departmental cuts at Defra – and the impact for growers and livestock producers.We spend two days at the Cereals event – the UK's annual showcase for the combinable crops sector.And we discover why plant breeders behind a 21-year-old oat variety are celebrating after being awarded a rare industry accolade.This episode of the Farmers Weekly Podcast is co-hosted by Johann Tasker, Louise Impey and Hugh Broom.Recorded live on Wednesday and Thursday 11-12 June 2025 at the UK Cereals event at Heath Farm, Leadenham, Lincolnshire.Contact or follow Johann (X): @johanntaskerContact or follow Louise (X): @louisearableContact or follow (X): @sondesplacefarmFor Farmers Weekly, visit fwi.co.uk or follow @farmersweeklyTo contact the Farmers Weekly Podcast, email podcast@fwi.co.uk.

Ian McMillan's guests celebrate hedges, with poetry from Alison Brackenbury and Testament, singing from Sam Lee, Michael Symmons Roberts explores a poem with a nightingale at its centre, and hedgelayer Paul Lamb records himself walking a hedgerow that's rich in wildlife.This hedge-themed special features a haunted hedge from poet Alison Brackenbury, part of the anthology 'Lincolnshire Folk Tales Reimagined' (ed, Anna Milon and Rory Waterman). Alison's hedge started off life as a talking hedge in her non-fiction book 'Village' which is all about her childhood home in Lincolnshire (to be published online in July)Testament, a world record-breaking beatboxer, rapper and poet, performs a poem called 'The Lig', based on his experiences observing three generations of farmer hedge-layers in Cumbria. Testament is a member of the Hot Poets Collective which explores climate change through spoken word poetry.Sam Lee's most recent album is 'Songdreaming' - and he sings, not only in front of human audiences, but also with and alongside nightingales. Sam takes musicians and small groups of people into woodland for annual 'Singing With Nightingales' events - events which celebrate this vulnerable bird and our creative connection with it. Sam sings 'Bushes and Briars' on the show and explores the poetry of 19th century poet John Clare.Poet and professor Michael Symmons Roberts chooses a 'neon line' for The Verb's ongoing series about stand-out lines in poems . His choice is from a poem that features a 'deconstructed hedge' and a singing blackbird. Michael listened carefully to the blackbirds in his garden whilst writing his new book 'Quartet for the End of Time: On Music, Grief and Birdsong', - inspired by his relationship with the music of the composer Olivier Messaien.Ian also dips in and out of a very long hedge with the help of Paul Lamb, a hedge-layer who walks the Gower Peninsula to bring us hedge language. Paul's new memoir is called 'Of Thorn and Briar - A Year with the West Country Hedgelayer'

The Environment Agency says the north west of England is in drought. One farmer tells us this year's crops are already ruined because of a lack of water.Two proposed reservoirs have been given 'nationally significant' status by the government to speed up the planning process. Decisions on the Lincolnshire Reservoir which is planned for an area near Sleaford and the Fens Reservoir near March in Cambridgeshire will now be accelerated. Ministers say the law will also be changed so that in the future all projects which are, as they put it, 'fundamental to national water resilience' will automatically be designated as 'nationally significant'. Farming communities are concerned about the impact on productive farmland, and one farmer says the Lincolnshire scheme will wipe out her home and her business.All week we're talking about the nation's national parks. The Scottish Government's decided not to go ahead with plans for a new national park in Galloway. After a long legal battle supreme court judges ruled that wild camping is allowed on Dartmoor, we speak to the park's chief executive. In Wales we report on a nature recovery project in Pembrokeshire which works with farmers to enhance farmland by the coast. In The Broads Norfolk farmers and environmentalists are trying to tackle the damage being caused by deer. Golden Eagles have been extinct in England since 2015 when a solitary bird died in the Lake District. But could that be about to change? A conservation project in the south of Scotland which began in 2018 has seen a huge increase in the eagle population there, and some of those birds have begun exploring places like the Northumberland National Park where one was spotted just a few weeks agoPresenter = Charlotte Smith Producer = Rebecca Rooney

Cover your faces and wield your flintlocks with care, as on this month's Forgotten Melodies bonus episode we're talking all about Villain Songs - in particular, Van Diemen's Land, The Female Highwayman, and The Lincolnshire Poacher! As ever, the episode contains new takes on all three of these songs from Eleanor and Ben, as well as plenty of chat about the history behind each song, and the English traditions of poaching and roadside robbery.From the nation's 18th century penchant for sending people to what is today called Tasmania for even the most minor of crimes to quite possibly the worst girlfriend ever, and the folk of Lincolnshire's very proud tradition of pinching stuff from the landed gentry, it's a fun episode underpinned by some serious concepts.After all, these songs do have dark underbellies - and how ought we feel about crime and punishment? Should we still be singing songs with misogyny baked into them from conception? And does our love of the 'English rebel' obscure an awkward fact: that we seem to often want to cheer on those who have clearly broken the law...As always, we really hope you enjoy the episode, and what's that in your pretty coin purse there? Well, well - stand and deliver!The Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcast Hosted on Acast.

On this week's episode of Local Legends, Martin is joined around the campfire by Dr Rory Waterman and Dr Anna Milon of the Lincolnshire Folk Tales Project!Rory leads the Lincolnshire Folk Tales project, and is an Associate Professor of Creative Writing and Modern & Contemporary Literature at Nottingham Trent University. Anna, meanwhile, is a postdoctoral research fellow on the Lincolnshire Folk Tales Project, having recently obtained her PhD from the University of Exeter. In term of this thing that has brought Anna and Rory together, The Lincolnshire Folk Tales Project, it's dedicated to preserving, sharing, and promoting the rich but often overlooked oral storytelling tradition of Lincolnshire, and its legacy in written and recorded literature. For over a year, the project has focused on collecting, recording, presenting, reinterpreting and discussing folk tales, legends, and myths that have been passed down through generations in the region, and this has all culminated in the first of two books, Lincolnshire Folk Tales Reimagined, which was released in February and is available to purchase right now.You can learn more about the Lincolnshire Folk Tales Project, Rory, Anna, and buy the book, through lincolnshirefolktalesproject.com – a website that is also spilling over with amazing lore and stories.For right now though, gather in close around the Three Ravens campfire and listen in to a chat about creepy little fairy men pretending to be babies, and werewolves on windswept coastal islands, fen magic, tiddy mun, and so much more, with two true Local Legends: Dr Rory Waterman and Dr Anna Milon.We really hope you enjoy it, and will be back on Monday with our brand new County Episode all about the history and folklore of Staffordshire!Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more.

durée : 00:59:33 - Entendez-vous l'éco ? - par : Aliette Hovine, Bruno Baradat - Le 12 avril, en pleine crise de la sidérurgie en Europe, le gouvernement britannique a décidé de sauver les hauts fourneaux de Scunthorpe, en difficulté depuis des années, dans l'attente d'une éventuelle nationalisation. Que dit cet épisode de la désindustrialisation en Grande Bretagne ? - réalisation : Françoise Le Floch - invités : Catherine Mathieu Économiste à l'OFCE, spécialiste du Royaume-Uni et des questions européennes; Marc Lenormand Maître de conférences en études anglophones et civilisation britannique à l'Université Montpellier - Paul Valéry

On the week's episode we're digging into the history and folklore of Lincolnshire, and disturbing a monster in the woods that lives beside a half-forgotten well...We start off discussing St Dunstan's Day, including Dunstan's life as an English folk hero, and what the historical record tells us he actually did, all before we advance to Lincolnshire.Once there, we chat about the some county trivia before Eleanor guides us through the counties three 'Parts' - Lindsey, Holland, and Kestevon, from ancient bog bodies to ghost ships, parasitic serpents to a couple of very naughty imps, all before Eleanor slices up some pork shoulder in pretty innovative ways, while also offering up cake and cheese, for this week's County Dish.After that, we do our best to avoid the sinister 'Shag Foal,' recall some deeply unsettling ghost stories, challenge a corpse to a game of cards, turn a blind eye to Lincolnshire's poachers, and so much more - all enriched by some excerpts from Saturday's upcoming Local Legends interview with Dr Rory Waterman and Dr Anna Milon of the Lincolnshire Folk Tales Project.Then it's on to the main event: Eleanor's take on the legend of "Nanny Rutt" - a tale of a sinister female predator who might know it's better to catch a fly with honey, yet whose appetites are for somewhat headier fare... We really hope you enjoy the episode, and will be back on Thursday with a new Three Ravens Bestiary bonus episode about Hellhounds, all before the full interview with Rory and Anna comes out on Saturday!The Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more.

On this week's episode of Local Legends, Martin is joined around the campfire by Emma Heard, the creator of perhaps the country's preeminent folklore blog, Weird Wiltshire!As Emma and Martin discuss during this conversation, Emma launched Weird Wiltshire during the pandemic. Originally intended as a means for Emma to explore her interests in folklore and paranormal activity, it then took off, with Emma, before long, sitting on a Twitter following of tens of thousands of people.The blog itself is an incredible resource for people interested in strange and esoteric tales, but Emma's decision to leave Twitter, or ‘X' as it has become, and start again over on BlueSky speaks to who she is as a person.Yes, she's fun. Yes, she's a really talented writer, who works really hard on her blog. But, at the same time, she is a really principled person. And all this makes her really likeable, and Weird Wiltshire this wonderful digital space that people use as a bit of an escape hatch when one is necessary.To learn more Emma and Weird Wiltshire, do check out her website at weird-wiltshire.co.uk, though, for now, gather in close and listen in to a chat which ranges from UFO and Crop Circle activity in Wiltshire to the county's ancient stone circles and barrow tombs.

British politics post-local elections resembles less a democracy in action and more a therapy session with occasional shouting. In this episode of Mid-Atlantic, the panel tears into the latest electoral results, with Reform UK bulldozing their way through local councils, Labour sleepwalking through governance, and the Tories doing their best impression of a political hospice.Dave Smith kicks things off with a cold, hard look at Reform UK's momentum. With council control and a surprise mayoral win in Lincolnshire, Reform is no longer on the fringes. Smith calls them a “galvanising force for the working class,” prompting an awkward reckoning from the left. Labour, once the natural home for these voters, is now seen as distant, managerial, and uninspiring. Steve O'Neill admits his past support for Labour's “do nothing and hope” Ming vase strategy was misplaced—an understatement.Tonye Altrade and Leah Brown grapple with Labour's post-landslide hangover. Starmer's white paper on immigration is dissected not just for its policies but for the gaping hole where vision should be. It's tough to sell a national direction when no one can tell what lane you're driving in. Leah Brown underlines the real crisis: Labour may be governing, but Reform is winning the emotional war by peddling a message of hope, however dubious the details.The Tories, according to Brown, are in survival mode. Talk of new leadership is already swirling, with Kemi Badenoch eyed as the phoenix to rise from electoral ashes. But internal division and reformist flirtations risk turning the party into political mulch. Meanwhile, the Lib Dems are cheerfully slicing up the Tory carcass in the South West and beyond. Steve O'Neill calls it “vibes-based campaigning,” and frankly, it's working. While Reform is tapping into disillusionment and Labour fumbles the bag it just won, the Lib Dems are slowly, quietly positioning themselves as the adults in the room—if only anyone knew who Ed Davey was.5 Quotes from the Episode“It's still like being crowned the tallest dwarf.” – on Lib Dems' electoral wins.“Populism doesn't equate to good governance.” – Leah Brown“Labour basically ran on being ‘not the Tories'. Now Reform is running on being ‘not Labour'.” – Dave Smith“Starmer behind a lectern won't fix Britain's sinking ship. He needs to be laying bricks on a building site.” – Royfield Brown“We knew what the last Tory government said it stood for. I have no idea what this one does.” – Steve O'Neill Hosted on Acast.

A former Government trade advisor says the new trade deal with India could be good news for UK farmers. The deal comes after three years of negotiations and includes reduced tariffs on exports of products including whisky, lamb and salmon.Many potatoes end up getting wasted because of bruising and discoloration. We hear from a potato producing company in Lincolnshire where they're hoping gene editing can produce a bruise-resistant spud.And a select committee of MPs is urging the Government to do more to encourage private investment in schemes which restore nature. A report from the Environmental Audit Select Committee says new regulations should be introduced to enable landowners to realise their natural capital while protecting the farmers' ability to grow food.Presented by Anna Hill Produced by Heather Simons

We review the recent spate of local elections that has everybody deciding retroactively that the Labour Party was always full of dangerous liars who could not be trusted to govern the country - if only someone had figured this out sooner.

Votes are being counted across England, but there is a clear early winner from these local elections: Nigel Farage. His party triumphed in the Runcorn and Helsby by-election this morning, overturning a 14,000-odd majority and winning by just six votes! Elsewhere, Andrea Jenkyns triumphed in Lincolnshire; Reform came second in a number of mayoral races; and their 38 per cent vote share in Runcorn matches the best-ever performance that Ukip achieved in a by-election. So far, the story is one of teal triumph – at the expense of the two main parties. Labour are already pointing to the difficulty incumbents often face at local elections, and will claim victory after narrowly holding out in three mayoral races: North Tyneside, the West of England and Doncaster. The Tories, however, appear to have totally capitulated – but with widespread results for councils across England expected later, that could all change. Oscar Edmondson speaks to James Heale and Lucy Dunn. Produced by Oscar Edmondson.

We're on a highway to Helsby… As Reform take Runcorn, rack up council seats and take Staffordshire and Lincolnshire county councils, Rafael Behr joins Andrew Harrison to explain what it all means. Is it really Farage's night? Who's more damaged, Badenoch or Starmer? Is this definitive proof that Labour can't beat the enemy by becoming the enemy? And… Andrea Jenkyns.

Colin Crabbe was the kind of man who could spot a priceless vintage car under a pile of chicken wire in Paraguay — and somehow drive it home. A flamboyant racing driver, Formula One team owner, and classic car hunter with a taste for adventure (and a knack for trouble), Colin lived life in the fast lane — sometimes literally. From smuggling D-type Jaguars out of Cuba to crashing out of races in style, his stories were as wild as you could imagine.I was lucky enough to interview Colin back in 2022, right here in our little village in Lincolnshire. With his passing earlier this year, it felt only right to bring that conversation back — this time as one extended episode. It's funny, chaotic, moving, and full of Colin's unmistakable charm. He'll be sorely missed by his family, our community, and classic car lovers around the world. But what a ride he had.Colin Crabbe, motor-racing driver and entrepreneur.

Spirituality became central to NiteshGor's life when, as a teenager, he founded a youth movement to campaign against the UK government's proposed forced closure of Bhaktivedanta Manor, a temple outside London that was purchased and gifted by George Harrison. Nitesh went on to create Avanti Schools Trust, a government-funded network of schools in the UK rooted in spirituality. He co-created the world's first equity index rooted in dharmic values, the Dow Jones Dharma Index, and now the Dharma Endowment Fund. He has helped establish numerous spiritual initiatives, from a 75-acre retreat centre in Lincolnshire to a vibrant restaurant and wellbeing hub in London. He has authored two books (Dharma of Capitalism, published in 2010 by Kogan Page, and Before Religion, being republished by Harper Collins in 2025) and received an OBE from the late Queen for his services to education.

In February 2001, 67-year-old Alf Wilkins was killed in a fire deliberately set inside his Grimsby flat. But this wasn't a random act of violence - it was the culmination of months of torment at the hands of his own neighbours.Despite being acquitted of an indecent assault charge in November 2000, Alf remained a target. The locals refused to believe his innocence, fueled by the hysteria of the News of the World's infamous 'name-and-shame' campaign. Branded as something he was not, Alf was harassed, threatened, and ultimately, his life was taken in an act of brutal, misplaced vigilante justice.Join my Patreon community at patreon.com/britishmurders for exclusive perks, including early access to ad-free episodes, bonus episodes and content, exciting giveaways, and welcome goodies!Follow me on social media:Facebook | British Murders with Stuart BluesInstagram | @britishmurdersTikTok | @britishmurdersJoin the private Facebook group:British Murders Podcast - Discussion GroupVisit my website:britishmurders.comIntro music:⁣David John Brady - 'Throw Down the Gauntlet'⁣davidjohnbrady.comDisclaimer:The case discussed in this podcast episode is real and represents the worst day in many people's lives.

A case of Foot and Mouth has been identified on a dairy farm in the North West of Hungary. Imports from Hungary and Slovakia of meat and other animal products have been banned, to try to prevent the disease spreading to the UK. A similar ban has been in place on products from Germany following cases there in January, but concerns have been raised that German animal products have still entered the UK since then. We ask if UK border controls are good enough to keep UK farmers safe.And the vast majority of farms use contractors - who often bring specialist knowledge, training, or kit.
