Happy Mother's Day to all the mom's out there! Can Britain reform itself? After decades of mass-immigration destroying the fabric of British society, and being ignored by their government, the British people have had enough. They've just swept in a wave of Reform Party candidates into their government. Are PM Keir Starmer's days over? Sources: JUST IN: UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer is now reportedly going to RESIGN after a very devastating Election

Las elecciones locales celebradas el pasado jueves en el Reino Unido han dinamitado el bipartidismo británico. Reform UK, el partido de Nigel Farage, arrasó consiguiendo cerca de 1.400 concejales nuevos partiendo prácticamente desde cero, se hizo con seis condados conservadores del sur y entró con fuerza en el parlamento galés con 34 escaños. El laborismo perdió alrededor de 1.500 de los 2.196 concejales que tenía. Entre las víctimas estuvo Eluned Morgan, la primera ministra galesa, que se ha quedado sin acta. En Essex, feudo de la conservadora Kemi Badenoch, los tories cedieron 39 de sus 52 concejales. El batacazo confirma una fragmentación inédita. Donde hasta hace unas décadas laboristas y conservadores acaparaban entre el 90 y el 95% del voto, hoy apenas suman el 34%, un 17% cada uno. Reform obtuvo el 26% y los Verdes lograron un histórico 18%, beneficiados por la fuga del electorado musulmán descontento con la posición de Starmer sobre Gaza. El Reino Unido se asemeja ahora a la Italia de los años 90 o la Francia de Macron, atomizada y sin hegemonías claras. El desgaste de Keir Starmer, que lleva en el poder solo 22 meses, explica buena parte del fenómeno. Llegó prometiendo buena gestión y reformas tras 14 años de gobiernos conservadores marcados por la inestabilidad, y menos de dos años después tres de cada cuatro británicos le suspenden como primer ministro. La inmigración irregular sigue batiendo récords pese a la caída de la legal, la guerra de Irán y el cierre del estrecho de Ormuz han abortado la incipiente recuperación económica, y los bonos del Estado cotizan a niveles que no se veían desde el efímero Gobierno de Liz Truss. Starmer ha subido impuestos sin atreverse a recortar gasto, ha rectificado constantemente y ha terminado defraudando tanto a la izquierda corbynista como a la derecha del laborismo, propensa al pragmatismo y que se ha pasado a los liberal-demócratas. Sacarle de Downing Street es algo más complicado. El favorito, Andy Burnham, alcalde de Mánchester, no es diputado y no puede competir mientras no obtenga un escaño. Además, las pérdidas laboristas son tan transversales que ninguna facción puede reclamar la victoria. Los conservadores de Badenoch tampoco capitalizan el desastre rival porque arrastran el lastre de los gobiernos tories. Hoy por hoy Reform ganaría las elecciones generales, pero sin alcanzar la mayoría absoluta. El sistema mayoritario británico fomenta el voto estratégico que ha funcionado muy bien en Gales a favor de los nacionalistas. Farage, además, deberá demostrar que su partido recién creado puede gestionar el día a día y no solo agitar en los mítines y por las redes sociales. El verdadero vencedor del 7 de mayo es el desencanto acumulado tras un Brexit traumático, una pandemia, un brote inflacionario, dos guerras y cinco primeros ministros desde 2019. Quedan tres años hasta las generales de 2029 para saber si esa patada que le han dado a Starmer se transforma en un gobierno de Farage o se diluye en simple voto de castigo localizado en unas elecciones locales.

Plaid Cymru leader and prospective new First Minister Rhun ap Iorwerth, Welsh Labour's new acting leader, Ken Skates, academics Richard Wyn Jones and Deian Hopkin, former SNP Westminster leader Ian Blackford and two Senedd newbies, Reform's Joe Martin and Plaid Cymru's Kiera Marshall join us to discuss last Thursday's election result.

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer is up against it, with growing calls for a leadership challenge. Labour had disastrous local election results, with right-wing party Reform making huge gains. UK Labour MP Catherine West says she will trigger a challenge to Starmer's leadership if Cabinet doesn't. UK correspondent Enda Brady says the results are a vote against Starmer. "People don't know who he is, people don't know what he stands for, nothing has changed. This summer will mark two years of him being in power and he hasn't delivered the change people wanted."

India is growing. But why does the average Indian still feel stuck? In this conversation with Saurabh Mukherjea, we break down what's really happening to India's middle class — from stagnant incomes and rising debt to job uncertainty and changing financial behaviour. Based on real data, field research, and on-ground stories, this episode explores: - Why people earning ₹5 lakh to ₹1 crore feel stuck - How automation is silently reducing salaries - Why India's middle class is taking on more debt than ever before - The hidden impact of UPI and easy credit - Why people are taking loans for vacations, phones, and even concerts - The rise of risky investing and massive retail losses - How social media is reshaping aspirations and spending habits - And what this means for your financial future This is not just an economic discussion. It's a reality check.

Britain's right-wing populist party Reform makes gains as votes are counted in local elections. With a promise to reduce immigration, the party looks set to win council seats across the country, mostly at the expense of the more centrist Labour and Conservatives. Also: South Africa's President Cyril Ramaphosa faces calls to resign after a court rules he will be investigated over the theft of more than half-a-million dollars. Instagram is ending the option to send direct messages with super secure privacy technology after years of saying it was the future of the platform. The move has been praised by law enforcement groups. And China's new snooker world champion receives a hero's welcome on his return home.

It's results day, and Nigel Farage is the local elections winner – again. A wave of teal has swept the country, stealing Labour seats from Hartlepool to Havering.This election was sold by insurgent parties as a referendum on Keir Starmer and the story of Labour's election so far is that they're haemorrhaging votes on all sides – including to the Tories in Westminster.

The Labour party has suffered huge losses in English local elections and has lost control of the parliament in Wales, while Reform makes historic gains. The Scottish National Party eye a record fifth term in power, but without an overall majority. There are gains too for the Greens and Liberal Democrats. Sir Keir Starmer has defied calls to step down, saying that would plunge the UK into "chaos".

Will Keir Starmer survive presiding over seismic Labour losses in the local elections, and if he doesn't who should replace him? Do historic Reform and Green wins for Farage and Polanski confirm the death of two-party politics in the UK?

What happens when society looks away from its most vulnerable?In this episode of Love Conquers Alz, hosts Susie Singer Carter and Don Priess welcome WGA, AWD, award-winning, neurodiverse, bi, writer/director, and podcaster, Ellen Ancui, who specializes in traumadies—darkly funny stories where (mostly) women dig their own graves, then complain about the landscaping. Ellen writes about caregiving, sex, and the 2nd act of a creative life. She co-hosts the pod FILTHY MILFS with Sophie Levine, about women's health, desire, and aging fearlessly. Ellen wrote, produced, and directed the Oscar-qualified short film, SAVERIO, that sheds light on a shocking and often invisible issue: elder abandonment, also known as “granny dumping.”Through a powerful blend of humor and humanity, Ellen's film tells the story of a young woman forced to confront her own values when an elderly man is abandoned in her care—an all-too-real scenario happening far more often than most people realize.This episode is both a wake-up call and a reminder of what's at stake if we continue to look away.Because aging is not someone else's story.It's all of ours.And change starts with awareness.Follow Ellen and her podcast✨  IMDB✨ Apple Podcasts✨ Spotify✨ InSend us Fan MailIf someone you love experienced neglect in a nursing home…Then you know how desperately the system needs to change.  History has shown us that It takes people power to change anything worthwhile.

Hour 4 opens with Riley Gaines joining the show ahead of her Missouri Right to Life appearance, where she discusses motherhood, the fight against Missouri's Amendment 3 abortion expansion effort, and the ongoing national battle over men competing in women's sports. Gaines argues cultural issues surrounding family, women's rights, and children remain central political flashpoints as she reflects on her rise into national activism. The hour then pivots into community fundraising and first responder competition as John Dolan and Shane Monnig preview the growing Guns N Hoses Soccer Cup at Worldwide Technology Soccer Park, explaining plans for expanded outdoor competition, larger rosters, and a major fundraising push benefiting Backstoppers. Later, Missouri Treasurer Vivek Malek joins the show to promote the state's unclaimed property program, reveal billions sitting unclaimed across Missouri and federally, and explain his effort to modernize Missouri's outdated state investment rules to generate higher taxpayer returns. The hour closes with lighter commentary on rising gas prices, packed Circle K fuel lines, and frustration over California's soaring fuel costs tied to state regulations and energy policy.

Missouri State Treasurer Vivek Malek joins the show to highlight the state's unclaimed property program after discussions about listeners discovering forgotten money through the ShowMeMoney website. Malek shares his own story of unexpectedly finding hundreds of dollars after taking office and explains that Missouri currently holds more than $1.5 billion in unclaimed assets, with one in ten Missourians potentially owed money. The conversation expands into federal uncashed bond funds, dormant safe deposit boxes, and annual treasury auctions before shifting to Malek's push for investment reform in Missouri. He argues the state's constitutionally restricted investment rules are outdated and costing taxpayers millions in unrealized returns compared to surrounding states.

After what's shaping up to be a Labour bloodbath, Camilla and Tim reflect on a nightmare set of local election results for Keir Starmer. With the Prime Minister taking the blame but refusing to step aside, they assess whether his Cabinet colleagues may well take the decision out of his hands.As bad a night as it's been for Labour, it's been a great one for Reform. Camilla and Tim are joined by a jubilant Nigel Farage, who says his party's remarkable taking back of the “red wall” is down to Starmer's “weak and ruderless” leadership, and that Reform's gains are down to the Labour Party of “London human rights lawyers” not connecting with ordinary people.

Welcome to the News Review on the PRmoment podcast. In this weekly show I'm joined by Mark Borkowski and Angie Moxham. Here's the agenda for PR Masterclass: AI in PR.In the PR News Review we look at the biggest news stories of the week from a PR perspective and this week we're talking about the UK local elections results.We discuss the predictably huge gains for Reform and the huge losses for Labour.We also talk about the likely comms strategies now for Farage & Reform and Starmer & Labour.The discussion centres on the shifting political landscape and the starkly different PR challenges facing the parties and their leaders.Podcast Summary HighlightsKeir Starmer and the Labour PartyThe panel offers a blunt assessment of Sir Keir Starmer's leadership. Despite Labour's significant majority, the speakers argue that Starmer suffers from a fundamental "charisma deficit" and a "robotic" communication style that fails to resonate with the electorate. Mark Borkowski describes Starmer as having a "barrister mind" better suited for the High Court than the public stage, noting that his messaging has been overwhelmed by poor decisions and controversies, particularly the "Mandelson stain." Angie Moxham predicts a potential leadership challenge, suggesting a "straight-out shooting" between Angela Rayner and Ed Miliband may be on thehorizon. The consensus is that Labour needs a leader who can project authenticity and positivity to maintain public trust in a volatile environment.Nigel Farage and the Reform PartyThe rise of Reform UK is characterized as a significant disruption to the traditionaltwo-and-a-half-party system. While Farage is praised for his "fearless communication" and ability to connect with his base, the panel identifies a major PR "own goal": the inclusion of "Tory party failures" like Robert Jenrick. Borkowski argues that bringing "old circus acts into a newtent" undermines Reform's image as a fresh alternative. Farage's strategy is described as headline-driven and opportunistic, effectively exploiting the "malaise" of current politics to gain momentum, even if his long-term viability remains a question of whether the electorate feels genuinely "more affluent" under his influence.The Changing Face of LeadershipBeyond the main parties, the Borkowski and Moxham speakers touch on the other party leaders.Kemi Badenoch is highlighted as an increasingly competent and "safe pair of hands," showing improved focus and delivery.In contrast, Zack Polanski's leadership is criticised for being "unpicked" by ego and a lack of maturity, particularly following unprofessional social media conduct. The overarching theme of the episode is that in the "age of authenticity," leaders have "nowhere to hide."Success requires not just policy, but the "spiritual quotient" (SQ) and emotional intelligence (EQ) to lead a nation that is increasingly fatigued by "dystopian" news narratives and systemic stress.

Our calendar and system of keeping time are rather unique.  It isn't nice and tidy like the metric system. It is a collection of odd time units, leap years, and rotating calendars.  As such, many people throughout history have thought that they could do better.  So they have made proposals for changing our calendar, some of which would be very different from the one we are used to.

This week: Lara Pendergast is joined by Tim Shipman, Lionel Barber and Alice Loxton, author of Eleanor: A 200-Mile Walk in Search of England's Lost Queen. They unpack Michael Gove's cover piece which asks whether the local elections will push Labour further to the left. As the Greens threaten Labour in its metropolitan heartlands and Reform eats into its working-class vote, is Keir Starmer facing a battle for the soul of his party? They also consider the collapse of the political centre, the weakness of Britain's current leadership class, and why being ‘not Keir Starmer' may not be enough.Also this week: King Charles's diplomatic triumph in Washington. After his address to Congress, did the King succeed where politicians often fail – managing Donald Trump while quietly defending Nato, Ukraine and constitutional restraint?Plus: are millennials being made ill by ultra-processed ‘health' foods? And finally, the panel admits to their own unlikely collections – from fridge magnets to political memorabilia.Produced by Patrick Gibbons and Oscar Edmondson. Hosted on Acast.

With all the reform and correction happening in the charismatic movement, it raises an important question: what should we hold on to?Not everything needs to be thrown out. In fact, some things must be protected.In this video, we talk about the good that should be cherished, not abandoned.

We welcome Gareth back to the show to discuss something he recently discovered: a planned private city of a million people? in Cambridgeshire? Supposedly called Forest City One, and built entirely out of wood? Obviously this is never going to get built, but there are some... tendencies represented here. We also talk about recent profiles of Reform voters and the garbage UK media environment that has brought us to this point. Check out Rail Natter here!
