Crime - What is it? (Part 2) Black Spy Podcast, 202, Season 21, Episode 0003   Over two weeks the black spy Podcast has been looking into what CRIME is by navigating the undermentioned points: In the UK, the creation of criminal law is the responsibility of Parliament. A crime is not considered such unless it is defined in statute (an Act of Parliament) or recognised under common law (judicial precedent). For example, theft is defined under the Theft Act 1968, while murder is a common law offence. Parliament introduces new criminal offences or modifies existing ones in response to societal change, public concern, or evolving threats—such as terrorism or online abuse. The legislative process involves proposing a bill, debating it in both the House of Commons and House of Lords, and receiving Royal Assent before it becomes law. The judiciary then interprets these laws and ensures they are applied fairly and consistently. It is important to understand that not all harmful acts are criminal. For instance, a breach of contract may be serious but is dealt with in civil rather than criminal courts. Crime carries an element of public condemnation and involves the state acting against the accused on society's behalf. Once a law is in place, enforcement falls primarily to the police. In the UK, policing is carried out by local forces across England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland, with the Metropolitan Police and other specialised units (such as the National Crime Agency) handling national and transnational threats. Police officers investigate crimes, protect the public, gather evidence, and arrest suspects where appropriate. However, their powers are bounded by legal and ethical frameworks, including the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984 (PACE), the Human Rights Act 1998, and codes of practice. The modern police role extends beyond reactive enforcement. Officers are also expected to prevent crime, engage with communities, and build trust. This includes neighbourhood policing, intelligence gathering, and working in partnership with local agencies to address root causes like poverty, drug misuse, or domestic abuse. Increasingly, police use data and technology—such as predictive analytics or body-worn cameras—to support transparency and efficiency. Ultimately, crime in the UK is a legal construct shaped by democratic processes. The police operate as agents of the law, balancing enforcement with public service, and must always act within the confines of legality and proportionality to maintain legitimacy and uphold justice.

Join me on the second segment of my ecotourism trip to Tasmania, Australia (my unscientific, amateur, American, vegan, wombat-obsessed perspective) with all my own audio recordings from my June 2025 trip. This 58-minute (part 2) segment of the trip takes you along with me to my favorite part -- Maria Island National Park and its wombats, kangaroos and wallabies, stingrays, and ruby red anemones, and the culling issue of marsupial "overpopulation" -- through to Port Arthur Historic Convict Site, then on to the city of Hobart, with insights from my Conference on Communication and Environment #COCE2025 (at Univ of Tasmania), including compelling audio clips from Tassie Green Party pioneers who spoke to us -- Bob Brown and Christine Milne. As retired Members of Parliament, and forest/river and gender activists, Christine and Bob have refreshingly candid political advice for activists that also gives listeners insights into current Australian politics. Plus you get to hear their cool Aussie accents (much better than my one attempt early on to do an Aussie accent). "Bad Weather" pronounced "Beed Weeth-uh." (side note: I loved the cool weather there in their winter and the sunny days on the coast). If you like my ecotourist ramblings and low-tech audio, make sure you've listened to Tassie podcast part 1 in the previous podcast posting. And see photos and videos from my trip at https://www.facebook.com/InTunetoNature  Idea: You can do a drinking game every time I talk about wombat poop, the ferry, and how adorable any marsupial is. Note: All the animal audio and photos here are of free-living/wild animals (no one was captive in a zoo or sanctuary), which did limit the number of other animal species I interacted with (no Tasmanian Devils or platypuses this time), but I felt it was a more natural and respectful way to interact (it was the animal individual's choice to get near me or allow me nearer to them). And I had an amazing time, and was elated for every wild animal I saw (like fairy wrens or swamp hens at outdoor bistro tables eating my chia pudding cup). As part of me compensating for the greenhouse gas emitted from my international trip, I made some donations to the Tasmanian Land Conservancy and the Aboriginal Land Council of Tasmania and the Friends of Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary. "In Tune to Nature" is a weekly radio show airing Wednesdays at 6pm Eastern Time on 89.3FM-Atlanta radio and streaming worldwide on wrfg.org (Radio Free Georgia, a nonprofit indie station) hosted by me, Carrie Freeman, or Melody Paris. The show's website and my contact info can be found at https://wrfg.org/intunetonature/  Tell me about wildlife experiences YOU have had in Australia or any comments on my Tasmania trip, and I might mention it on a future show.

Kpods, a street term for drug-laced e-vaporisers, has been much-talked about this week. Synopsis: Join Natasha Ann Zachariah at The Usual Place as she unpacks the latest current affairs with guests. Videos of vape users taken by the public have been surfacing online – in particular, of younger people – turning into “zombies” and behaving erratically after using etomidate-laced vapes. An anaesthetic used in hospitals during medical procedures, etomidate is classified as a poison, which can only be used by licensed medical professionals. In this episode of The Usual Place podcast, I spoke with my colleague and crime reporter Nadine Chua; Yio Chu Kang SMC MP Yip Hon Weng, who has raised multiple questions in Parliament on vaping over the past few years; and executive director of youth mental health charity Impart, Narasimman Tivasiha Mani, who has encountered teens using Kpods.

The government has announced that Te Pūkenga is set to return to ‘regional governance,' re-establishing 10 polytechnics that were merged under the previous Labour-led government. In 2020 under the previous Labour-led government, 16 polytechnics and nine industry training organisations were merged into the mega-institute Te Pūkenga, as a “head office”. Despite this, the polytechnics were allowed to maintain their unique images and continue operating. Vocational Education Minister, Penny Simmonds, announced the move, to establish a vocational education system that is “locally led, regionally responsible, and future-focused”. The move has faced backlash. The Tertiary Education Union's national secretary, Sandra Grey, says the move would be a disaster for regional education and that the sector is being treated as a “political football”. For our weekly catchup with the Labour Party, News and Editorial Director Joel spoke with MP Shanon Halbert, about this move from the government. They also discussed Te Pāti Māori members expressing concerns over Labour's choice of running MP Peeni Henare in the upcoming Tāmaki Makaurau by-election. Te Pāti Māori media liaison, Kiri Tamihere-Waititi, says a vote for Henare would be “wasted,” as Henare already has a seat in Parliament. She has called for people to vote for Te Pāti Māori's candidate, Oriini Kaipara, so that there would be two Tāmaki Makaurau-based Māori MPs in Parliament. But first, they discussed vocational education.

PARLIAMENT TREATS FRANKLIN  AND PENNSYLVANIA RESPECTFULLY, AND CHARLES III IS KING OF AMERICA. 1/4: Ingenious: A Biography of Benjamin Franklin, Scientist by  Richard Munson  (Author) 1670 PENNSYLVANIA https://www.amazon.com/Ingenious-Biography-Benjamin-Franklin-Scientist/dp/0393882233 Benjamin Franklin was one of the preeminent scientists of his time. Driven by curiosity, he conducted cutting-edge research on electricity, heat, ocean currents, weather patterns, chemical bonds, and plants. But today, Franklin is remembered more for his political prowess and diplomatic achievements than his scientific creativity. In this incisive and rich account of Benjamin Franklin's life and career, Richard Munson recovers this vital part of Franklin's story, reveals his modern relevance, and offers a compelling portrait of a shrewd experimenter, clever innovator, and visionary physicist whose fame opened doors to negotiate French support and funding for American independence. Munson's riveting narrative explores how science underpins Franklin's entire story―from tradesman to inventor to nation-founder―and argues that Franklin's political life cannot be understood without giving proper credit to his scientific accomplishments. 8 pages of illustrations

During her career as a midwife, Dr Laura Abbott – now an associate professor in research at the University of Hertfordshire – became interested in the plight of women who gave birth in prison, or were separated from their babies by incarceration. And so she founded the Lost Mothers Project: a research project exploring the effects of mandatory separation of babies from women with Criminal Justice System involvement. As the Lost Mothers Project prepares to take its findings to Parliament, Jen chats to Laura about the vital work being done, an increased awareness of the England and Wales prison system for women, and why change needs to come now.

UKPolitics #Jaguar #Deliveroo #Migrants #JonGaunt The UK is finished — and no one in power is telling you the truth. Illegal immigration is out of control. Migrants are working in the black economy while living in taxpayer-funded hotels — and companies like Deliveroo and Just Eat are turning a blind eye.  Our national identity is being sold off. Jaguar, once a symbol of British engineering, has ditched its roots and gone full woke.  And now, we let French President Macron speak in our Parliament, but Donald Trump — a close ally to Britain — is banned. What does that tell you?  Where is the outrage? Where are our values? I'm Jon Gaunt, and in this video, I'm pulling no punches. We're talking about mass immigration, corporate betrayal, political weakness, and the death of British pride.

Knesset Member Ofer Cassif of the Hadash-Tal party blasted the move to impeach his party leader Ayman Odeh as populism and fascism. He told reporter Arieh O’Sullivan that in principle, members of parliament should not have the right to act as judges against each other since they were all politically motivated and biased. Cassif himself was banned from the Knesset for 45 days after accusing the government shortly after October 7th 2023 of carrying out “ethnic cleansing” against Palestinians.

Lord Alf Dubs is a Labour peer and former MP. He came to the UK from Prague in 1939 on one of the Kindertransport trains organised by Sir Nicholas Winton which rescued mostly Jewish children from Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia.Alf was born in Prague in 1932. His father was from a Jewish background and was brought up in what was then Northern Bohemia while his mother came from Austria. His father left Prague for London as soon as the Nazis invaded Czechoslovakia in March 1939. In June, when he was six-years-old, Alf was put on a Kindertransport train, arriving at Liverpool Street station two days later where he was met by his father. His mother eventually joined them in London the day before war broke out. Alf studied Politics and Economics at the London School of Economics and was elected as the Member of Parliament for Battersea South in May 1979. He lost his seat in 1987 and the following year he was appointed director of the Refugee Council, becoming the first refugee to head up the charity.In March 2016 Alf tabled an amendment to the 2016 Immigration Act (known as the Dubs Amendment) which asked the Government to accept 3,000 unaccompanied refugee children into the UK. The amendment passed but the Government closed the scheme the following year after accepting 480 children.In 2016 Alf received the Humanist of the Year award by Humanists UK of which he is also a patron. In 2021 his Czech citizenship was restored making him the first Czech-British member of the House of Lords.DISC ONE: It's Easy To Remember (Take 4) - John Coltrane Quartet DISC TWO: Smetana: Má Vlast, JB1:112: 2.
