What is the reality of political life and how does it affect our MPs? Can they be the real human beings that they are? In this podcast, TaSC members Robbie Curtis and Mick Cooper talk to Labour MP Alex Sobel, as he discusses his journey from environmental and anti-fascist activism to representing an ‘unwinnable' Labour constituency. With a much-appreciated openness, Alex sheds light on the personal and professional challenges of political life, providing a candid look at some of the mental health challenges faced by politicians in 2025. Alex talks about the stress and isolation that can come with the role, emphasizing the importance of mental well-being amidst the relentless demands of public service.There are systemic challenges that can threaten the capacity for parliament to represent all human beings. Alex goes on to discuss parliamentary issues like lack of designated seating, irregular hours, and frequent travel that can create a non-family-friendly environment, especially for those with young children or separated families. Alex also discusses the prevalence of undiagnosed neurodiversity among MPs and the limited mental health support available. Alex advocates for more inclusive practices that accommodate the diverse needs of politicians, highlighting the importance of effective representation.Alex underscores Leeds' significant contributions to arts and culture; and shares insights into being a Jewish MP, addressing antisemitism within political spaces and the distinction between Jewish identity and Israeli government policies. We round off the episode by tackling the broader implications of misinformation in today's digital age, stressing the crucial role of truth in preserving democratic values. This episode invites listeners to explore the multifaceted world of politics and the pressing challenges today's politicians face.This Podcast is sponsored by Onlinevents

CW: Suicide, trauma, abandonment, sexual abuse, alcoholism, rape, slavery, self-harm, homophobia.What happens when privilege, trauma, and leadership intersect within the walls of a boarding school? We invite you to join our compelling conversation with Tom Greaves, Piers Cross, and Jonny Lovett, as they unravel their personal journeys through the labyrinthine world of boarding education. This episode challenges the notion of resilience, questioning whether the experiences of isolation, bullying, and the emotional voids left by early separation can be classified as trauma. We explore the ways these experiences shape leaders, with figures like Boris Johnson and Donald Trump as potential case studies shaped by their past.The emotional landscape of boarding school life is vast and complex, leaving indelible marks on personal relationships and emotional development. Our guests recount stories of betrayal, isolation, and the struggle to express emotions while reconciling privilege with vulnerability. These narratives illuminate a cycle of trauma that transcends generations, with familial bonds often strained by the experiences of being sent away. As we discuss the broader societal implications, we examine how ingrained behaviors from such privileged backgrounds can hinder authenticity and connection in adulthood.Throughout our discussion, we address the psychological impacts of boarding school, including the strategic survival personalities cultivated within these institutions. The conversation delves into class disdain and the societal disconnects perpetuated by such education systems. With anecdotes from public figures like Richard Branson and Bear Grylls, we shed light on the long-lasting effects of these formative years. As our guests share their paths to healing, we emphasize the importance of addressing these deeply rooted issues for both personal and societal transformation, highlighting ongoing projects aimed at fostering understanding and change.One of our panelists touches on themes of homophobia. Whilst this was not explicitly explored or condemned, the TaSC network and all those involved in the podcast do not support homophobic views or beliefs of any kind.You can find out more about our chair and panelists here:Connect with Ester on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ester-wheeler-458a55167?originalSubdomain=ukJonny's private practice website: https://springtidescotland.com/The trailer for Piers' upcoming documentary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stMvUcsZzlMFollow Tom to keep up to date with his upcoming show about male friendships: https://www.instagram.com/tdrgreaves/?hl=enResources mentioned in the episode (books unless otherwise stated):Judith Herman, Trauma and RecoveryNick Duffell, The Making of Them & Boarding School Survivor WorkshopsSuzanne Zeedyk, The Connected Baby - 2011 DocumentaryRichard beard, Sad Little MenIf… – 1968 FilmJennifer Freyd, Betrayal Trauma: Logic of Forgetting Childhood Abuse: The Logic of Forgetting Childhood AbuseJoy Schaverien, Boarding school: the trauma of the ‘privileged' childRichard Branson, Losing My VirginityBear Grylls, Mud, Sweat and TearsJohn Peel, Margrave of the MarshesDavid Niven, The Moon's A BalloonMad, Bad and Dangerous to KnowRanulph Fiennes, Mad, Bad and Dangerous to KnowFight Club – 1999 FilmDavid Cameron, For the RecordThis Podcast is sponsored by Onlinevents

Navigating the complicated maze of community mental health is no small feat. Will Higham joins us with insights reflecting his experience from years of working in community mental health across the UK. In conversation with Cassandra Geisel (MBACP), TaSC member with experience in working in community based suicide prevention, we gain an understanding of co-production in mental health services and the necessity for responsive, justice-oriented healthcare systems. As we traverse the shifting political terrain of the UK, Will's personal experiences become a lens through which we examine the broader implications of mental health policies and the urgent need for government-led health initiatives. The conversation looks at the current state of mental health in the UK and how it is at a point of humanitarian crisis. Something different needs to happen. Can we rely on the upcoming elections to spark that change?Forming alliances within the healthcare sector, especially in mental health, is akin to a delicate dance—one that requires balance, precision, and an acute understanding of community needs. Our discussion turns to the challenges of integrating smaller community groups with larger NHS structures, the significance of equitable funding, and the balance between clinical and social health models. We discuss the importance of clinicians venturing beyond the confines of therapy rooms to engage in deep partnership work, and the transformative power of such alliances in strengthening mental health support services for everyone involved.The conversation goes on to reflect on the critical role of local initiatives in propelling national health missions forward, particularly in the realm of mental health. The conversation examines the nuance between therapy sessions and a client's socio-environmental conditions. We explore how policy decisions impact communities grappling with health inequalities and the importance of recognising the gaps in care that are often filled by grassroots organisations. How do we, as therapists, learn from the knowledge and assets that exist in community spaces? What does collaboration across the mental health sector look like? The conversation ends in a call to action for cross-sector collaboration, recognizing the collective effort required to address the mental health crisis and inspire a more resilient, healthy society.Website: Together, we can transform community mental health (rethink.org)This Podcast is sponsored by Onlinevents

A pesar de décadas de combate al narcotráfico con miles de millones de dólares, muchos de ellos invertidos por Estados Unidos, Colombia rompió el año pasado su propio récord de cultivo de hoja de coca y se mantuvo como el principal productor de cocaína del mundo. Al asumir como presidente de ese país, Gustavo Petro prometió un giro en la política antidrogas colombiana. Ante las Naciones Unidas, Petro sostuvo que la llamada “guerra contra las drogas” fracasó y que continuarla es “irracional”. No es lo único: en diciembre, el mandatario anunció que los campesinos podrán seguir cultivando hojas de coca mientras se pone en marcha un programa de sustitución de siembras ilícitas. Petro incluso dijo que su gobierno evalúa comprar hoja de coca a esos campesinos para darle un fin alternativo a la producción de droga. ¿Qué forma tendrá ese proceso de sustitución? ¿Puede marcar un camino para transformar el encare del combate al narcotráfico en el continente? ¿Hay inspiración en la forma en que Uruguay implementó la regulación del cannabis? Lo hablamos con un hombre clave en el gobierno de Petro en esta línea de trabajo: el economista Felipe Tascón, especializado en prevención de drogas, que dirige el Programa Nacional Integral de Sustitución de Cultivos Ilícitos.
