Mosques and hotels housing asylum seekers came under attack during the riots that swept across the country earlier this month. The courts have been tough on violent disorder, but File on 4 examines how tackling the possible root causes may require an even stronger effort. Tensions over immigration are still simmering, particularly in areas that have long been in economic decline.

Jeden stworzył własną wersję stalinizmu i terror służby bezpieczeństwa, drugi był prawosławnym faszystowskim mesjaszem, którego szanowali nawet Niemcy z NSDAP. Dwóch ludzi ważnych dla XX-wiecznej historii Rumunii. Do tego jeszcze król utracjusz i generał Antonescu, który stał się najbardziej zaufanym sojusznikiem Hitlera. Rumunia wielu kojarzy się z Drakulą, co wzbudza słuszne oburzenie samych Rumunów, gdyż książka która została napisana przez brytyjskiego Brama Stokera ma niewiele wspólnego z jakąkolwiek rzeczywistością. Moim gościem w tym odcinku jest Paul Kenyon, autor książki „Dzieci nocy. Nadzwyczajna historia współczesnej Rumunii”: https://bowiem.wuj.pl/ksiazka/dzieci-nocy Zapraszam Was do subskrypcji kanału, a mających ochotę mnie wspierać także do przystąpienia do klubu Historii, jakiej nie znacie na Patronite: https://patronite.pl/Historiajakiejnieznacie Rumunia choć tak odległa językowo czy kulturowo od Polski ma z nami paradoksalnie wiele wspólnego. I to nie tylko w XX wiecznej historii, gdy po pierwsze tak samo jak my stała się ofiarą paktu Ribbentrop Mołotow, później trafiła w orbitę wpływów Moskwy. Jest wiele innych podobieństw, historycznych motywów, choćby przedwojenne tendencje autorytarne, które u nas były niczym w porównaniu do Rumunii. Tam bowiem przybrały wymiar pełnoekranowego faszyzmu. Wcześnie Rumuni tak samo jako Polacy starali się walczyć o własną niezawisłość i państwowość. W 1877 roku ogłosili niepodległość, uniezależniając się od Imperium Osmańskiego. Tylko, że nowy król nie był Rumunem, bo pochodził z rodu Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen. Jego następca Ferdynand miał mieć z kolei żonę będącą wnuczką brytyjskiej królowej Wiktorii. Istne dynastyczne pomieszanie z poplątaniem, które już po I wojnie światowej musiało przynieść dość kuriozalne owoce. Panowanie Ferdynanda I i charyzmatycznej królowej Marii było jedynym spokojnym okresem początku lat 20. Później nastąpiła cała plejada dziwacznych postaci takich jak seksoholiczny skorumpowany Karol II, rywalizujący z królem o względu ludu faszystowski mesjasz Corneliu Codreanu, z jego antysemicką Żelazną Gwardią i wreszcie generał Antonescu, który doprowadził do sojuszu z Hitlerem.

From the BBC World Service: In an exclusive interview, the Secretary General of the oil producers cartel OPEC warns of “dire consequences” for the global economy if investment in the oil sector falls. Crisis-hit Chinese property giant Evergrande saw its shares jump when it resumed trading in Hong Kong, but its future is unclear. And the BBC’s Paul Kenyon tracks down one of the so-called “dark fleet” ships carrying Russian oil, despite G7 sanctions.

Francisco Macías Nguema was the 1st President of Equatorial Guinea from 1968 until his execution in 1979. His wooden public appearances, punctuated by rambling and spasmodic outbursts, often explained away as kookiness, were in fact suggestions of something else: that Macías was completely mad. Suffering from hallucinations and paranoia, Macías' fear of assassination led him to murder perhaps as much as a third of the population of Equatorial Guinea. Some of the anecdotes my guest tells about Macías in the conversation you're about to hear are totally unbelievable. My guest today is the journalist and author Paul Kenyon. Paul is the author of several books including Dictatorland: The Men Who Stole Africa. Dictatorland contains one chapter dedicated to the plight of Equatorial Guinea, but more widely tells the story of various African countries in the first generation after independence, and how so many fell into dictatorship and kleptocracy. 

One of the main topics of today's podcast is the financial modelling of transitioning to a shedding flock from a Romney our guest, Prof. Paul Kenyon of Massey University, has been involved with.Mark asks what instigated the work and what does the modelling show?"In reality, coarse wool is costing more to get it off. Many farmers spend their whole summer shearing, crutching, dagging, dipping... controlling fly. As we move forward in the modern society it's harder and harder to get labour in remote areas." Says Paul. "Many don't want to work on a sheep farm when in summer, they're doing those four jobs over and over again."Paul and his team modelled what it would look like financially to transition from a Romney to a Wiltshire."As you went through the transition and post transition, you're better off to move to a Wiltshire because of reduced costs.""It also showed us, to be [financially] status-quo with a shedding animal, the price of wool had to be up around $5... and it hasn't been around that in a long time."Because the only data available for the modelling was from the 80's and 90's, they are now working on updating it so it is more accurate to today's Wiltshires in New Zealand."That's a slightly different genotype than what's in the industry now.""We've started a field study. We have a farm where they've agreed to leave half of the flock as straight Romneys and the other half have been bred to the Wiltshires," explains Paul. "We have our Romney control and as the respective generations are born, the Wiltshire crosses are crossing back over the Wiltshire."They are now at the point where they have hoggets that are 7/8ths Wiltshire meaning they are one generation away from what most breed societies would accept as a full Wiltshire.  They are also collecting a huge amount of data during the trial.Paul says "We're collecting everything from mating performance, puberty onset in hoggets, scanning percentage, NLB, NLW, weaning weights, wool traits.." and much much more."We're collecting the wool traits because in the 1/2, 3/4 and 7/8's, you're going to have to shear them to get the 'mohawk' off them. So we're collecting that out of curiosity. "Mark asks about the value of the wool on a Wiltshire."At a 35+ micron there's not really much more of a hit you can take."Because shedding doesn't take place biologically until late spring after a winter, Paul explains they're looking into how early they can pick replacements based on a "shedding score" and also how that first shedding score relates to their score as a 2th or 4th. Some interesting research!You can read the full article modelling the transition here:https://www.mdpi.com/2076-2615/10/11/2066This is only a fraction of what is a fascinating podcast with Paul.

Kate Adie presents stories from Syria, Nigeria, Romania, Armenia and Pakistan Leila Molana-Allen has spoken to anxious friends and relatives in the Syrian diaspora who are preparing for the worst as roads are blocked and airports closed. Many relief workers are running low on supplies as they battle to reach those stranded. Mayeni Jones has been in the midst of the chaotic fall-out from the Nigerian Central Bank's decision to replace the high denomination bank notes, which led to fights breaking out in banks and long queues forming as the new notes became scarce to find. Paul Kenyon visits the Romanian home of former championship boxer and social media influencer Andrew Tate, who's been detained in the country due to allegations of people trafficking and rape. He finds the house wasn't quite what he expected for someone who boasts about a glamour lifestyle - and went to hear what the locals make of him. A group of teenagers got stranded on the Armenian border after they travelled to Yerevan from Nagorno-Karabakh for the Eurovision Junior Song Contest. Azerbaijani political activists staged a sit in on the only road connection Armenia to the breakaway region and have stopped all civilian traffic from passing. Gabriel Gavin spoke to the children caught in the middle of the conflict. And finally, over this past year, Pakistan has marked the 75th anniversary of its formation. There were many individual stories of communities and families who were split or who chose to relocate and the reverberations of that partition are still felt today. Ash Bhardwaj reflects on his first visit to Pakistan as someone who is half Indian and grew up in England.

Paul Kenyon investigates the ‘brain drain' of doctors from developing countries to work in the UK. The large scale recruitment of foreign doctors from nations with the greatest need to retain their medical personnel is increasing on a massive scale. What's more, thousands of doctors are being targeted despite guidance which says recruitment from developing countries should not happen. It is though - because the UK trains too few doctors and nurses and needs these staff to plug the gaps. There are also big concerns about how many of the doctors flown into the UK are expected to work extremely long hours which they say is putting patient safety at risk.

File on 4 tells the story of a charismatic preacher on the run from British police for child sex offences. Three years ago, File on 4 tracked him down to an impoverished Roma community in Bulgaria where he was sexually abusing boys as young as 10. Daniel Erickson-Hull was arrested and charged by the Bulgarian authorities after he was confronted by File on 4 but has since been released and continues to offend. Yet despite overwhelming evidence, the self-styled preacher from London has been left alone. Paul Kenyon asks why the Metropolitan Police has failed to use its powers to bring him to justice and stop boys being sexually abused.

Paul Kenyon had spent almost 20 years in the print industry, an industry, frankly, in decline. Having been recently made redundant from his job, he was looking for a new challenge, in a new field, in his own words, in anything but print.In a chance meeting over a pint with an electrical engineer friend, they hit on an idea that has changed their lives – the sale and installation of domestic and workplace electric vehicle charging points. Two years on, and busier than he's ever been, Paul tells Nina about his journey in a compelling conversation that teaches us lots of things we probably didn't know about the brave new world of EVs, as well as dispelling some of the myths that seem to be making many people hesitant about making the leap from fossil fuelled to electric vehicles. 

An estimated £66 billion was spent by the government during the pandemic on paying towards the wages of people who couldn't work, or whose employers could no longer afford to pay them. That's around one fifth of the money the government spent on the response to Covid. It says 11.6 million jobs were supported by the furlough scheme. But the scheme also exposed the government to fraud and is expected to result in billions of pounds of additional losses to the tax payer. In September of last year, only after 6 months of the scheme running, HMRC was already estimating up to £3.5 billion of fraud and error in furlough payments. Now the scheme has closed, Paul Kenyon investigates businesses that claimed furlough money even thought their employees carried on working.

On this episode of Place North West's COP26 podcast series, HBD and Cundall discuss why some developers are taking it upon themselves to get ahead of the curve in terms of sustainability, while government legislation on the issue lags behind. Lee Treanor, director at HDB, and Paul Kenyon, partner at multi-disciplinary practice Cundall, also explore how the term ‘net zero' is being used and misused and what more can be done to help people tell fact from fiction when claims about a building's carbon credentials are made. Could a single, formalised framework like Nabers provide the development community a clearer, more defined path towards net zero? Will brown discounts and green premiums become a reality in the future as many predict? To find out more, visit hbd.co.uk

It's astonishingly beautiful, fiercely independent, full of mystery and a crossroads of jaw-dropping historical events – so why do we still think of Romania as a backwater? Paul Kenyon, author of Children of the Night: The Strange and Epic Story of Modern Romania, tells Arthur Snell how this sensational state has survived multiple coups, fascist death cults, dictators, and Cold War spies…and why Dracula doesn't enjoy such a bad rep among his fellow Romanians. “Romania's fascist movement was led by a rock star mystic who looked like Hugh Grant.” “Romania's fascist leader was so patriotic, he wore a sack of Romania's blood-soaked earth around his neck.” “Everybody thought that one in three members of their family were part of the Secret Police.” “All the leading Romanian football clubs have seen their owners go in and out of prison.”Presented by Arthur Snell.

Prior to the Hong Kong pro-democracy movement and the Covid-19 pandemic, China’s presence on international social media was largely to promote a positive image of its country – trying to ‘change the climate’ rather than seeking to sow confusion and division. But this is changing. In this investigation by File on 4 and BBC Monitoring, Paul Kenyon and Krassimira Twigg examine China’s new strategy of aggressively pushing disinformation on social media platforms through the use of ‘wolf warrior’ diplomats, internet bots, ‘the 50-cent army’ of loyal Chinese netizens and a longer term goal of inventing a new type of internet where authoritarian governments can control users.

International woman of mystery "The Baroness", who, unlike many of her male counterparts actually maintains her secret identity and mission-ready status faces off against her longtime nemesis Blowfinger alongside her trusty but wholly impractical Afghan hounds against the backdrop of a world shrugging out of the carefree '60s and into the Welsh-Argentinan Cold War using cunning, political savoir-faire, and haute couture. — "The Baroness: The Ecstasy Connection" by Paul Kenyon ----more---- https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/b6cin4/CMA-068.jpg Find CoverMyAssCast on Twitter, Gmail and www.covermyasscast.com.

High-quality, legume based forages offer sheep and cattle farmers the opportunity to achieve higher liveweight gains from young stock. Based on red and white clover, with plantain and sometimes chicory, they may be especially useful when it can be difficult to maintain high quality and high legume content in grass swards. We’re joined by Paul Kenyon from Massey University to talk about the pros and cons of these specialist forages, when and how to incorporate them into a farm system, and how to get the best out of them.

Anti-obesity campaigners in Mexico, human rights advocates in London, and friends of the murdered journalist Jamal Khashoggi all claim they’ve been targeted by surveillance software normally used by law enforcement to track drug-dealers and terrorists. Assignment reveals compelling evidence that software is being used to track the work of journalists, activists and lawyers around the world. Paul Kenyon investigates the multi-billion pound “lawful surveillance” industry. Sophisticated software can allow hackers to remotely install spyware on their targets’ phones. This gives them access to everything on the devices – including encrypted messages – and even allows them to control the microphone and camera. So what are the options for those who are targeted and is there any way to control the development and use of commercially available software?

It’s over two years since the authorities in France closed down the Jungle, the large migrant camp in Calais on the French coast. At its height more than 9,000 people from around the world lived in the camp while attempting to make it across to the UK, often hiding in the back of lorries or packed into small boats. It was hoped the camp's closure would stem the number of people risking their lives to try to get to Britain. But has it worked? In December, Britain’s Home Secretary, Sajid Javid, declared the number of migrants attempting to cross the English Channel in boats a 'major incident' and since then more than 100 people have been picked up in 2019. For Assignment, Paul Kenyon investigates the British gangs making big money and risking migrants' lives smuggling them across the Channel and reports on the attempts to break up their networks.

Co-CEOs, can this concept ever work? According to research, the answer is no – it almost never works. According to Paul Kenyon and Mark Austin, the answer is yes – it’s the only way Avecto would have achieved the success it has to date, securing 8 million endpoints. The two have been running Avecto together in cohesion for the past decade, but this isn’t their first time leading together. Mark and Paul worked together as co-founders of the company AppSense. While they didn’t know exactly what technology they wanted to create for their next company, they did know that for their next endeavor the only way it would work is if they were Co-CEOs. Paul and Mark both believe the most successful leaders find their opposite and learn from them every day. I invited them onto the show today to learn more about their tech startup story and explore the concept of Co-CEOs and how Paul and Mark have made this structure successful. Guest Info Mark Austin: leads Avecto's research and development teams, driving the company's constant innovation. He has a background in software engineering and over 25 years of industry experience in all things technical. Paul Kenyon: is in charge of Avecto’s sales and marketing division. Paul is responsible for promoting the benefits of simple and smart endpoint security to global businesses. He has a background in commercial challenges, with over 800 global brands to draw experience from.
