The Stories We Never Tell: Writing Black Leadership into ExistenceDr Barbara Banda shares her marathon writing session during lockdown, where she spent from 3am through the night crafting the first chapter of her groundbreaking book "The Model Black." This deeply personal chapter forced her to confront experiences she'd never spoken about openly, exploring what it means to "come out as Black" in professional environments. Barbara discusses her interviews with 30 Black British leaders, including David Lammy and Trevor Phillips, revealing the strategies they use to navigate predominantly white workplaces. The conversation explores the healing power of sharing untold stories, the unique challenges faced by Black leaders in Britain, and how authentic storytelling can bridge understanding across communities.Barbara's Longest Day started writing at 3am and continued through the night, as she was determined to complete her first chapter of "The Model Black". The book is based on interviews with 30 Black British leaders, from well-known figures to those quietly leading major organisations. It focuses specifically on the British context, resisting publisher pressure to make it international. The book explores strategies for navigating predominantly white workplaces rather than being a "how-to" success guide.Best Quote: "I can't find them anywhere. I don't find that those experiences are not written down. My experience is not captured anywhere... There was nothing that I could put my hand on to say actually, if you're coaching a Black leader, or if you're leading a team, and you've got Black people within it, here's something that just might be helpful to you."Resources "The Model Black: How Black British Leaders Succeed in Organisations and Why it Matters" by Dr Barbara Banda (published by Routledge) includes interviews with leaders including David Lammy (current Foreign Secretary) and Trevor Phillips: https://www.routledge.com/The-Model-Black-How-Black-British-Leaders-Succeed-in-Organisations-and-Why-It-Matters/Banda/p/book/9781032060545?srsltid=AfmBOoptMFvTOl8eHyVb2TX_u7R0OiUgpaAGmDFeVOph05bS5E5yARn9 Contact InformationFind Dr Barbara Banda here: Website: https://www.barbarabandaconsulting.co.uk LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/barbara-banda-consulting/ Find Leah Brown FRSA here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leah-brown-frsa-b71b0844/ and @leahtalks_ on Instagram, TikTok and X.Don't forget to subscribe, rate, and share this episode by following The Longest Day Podcast here: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/thelongestdaypodcast/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/15QDqkhjZw/?mibextid=wwXIfr YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheLongestDayPodcast-z1x X: @longestdaypod TikTok: @thelongestdaypodcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thelongestdaypodcast Website: www.thelongestdaypodcast.com All previous episodes: https://pod.link/1684217939

This episode begins with Jemma and Marina explaining why they weren't aligned this week for pretty much the first time in Trawl history, though their disagreement was quickly put to rest once they'd consulted listeners and asked what you think. There's a quick goodbye to the MOTD version of Gary Lineker and then, it's straight into what's happening in politics here in the UK. However, before they get round to the newly announced Reform manifesto, they feel it's only fair to check in with Tory HQ. Someone's got to after all. There's not a huge amount to report apart from Kemi Badenoch being roasted by Trevor Phillips, Robert Jenrick turning into a London Underground vigilante with more than a dash of Alan Partridge and one very unaware tweet. Then it's time to break down some of what Farage had to say, only you'll be pleased to note that one clip of Natasha Devon will blow your mind and give you hope. It certainly had that effect on the Trawl ladies and begs the question why getting do Reform get so much airtime? When Farage starts lecturing women on what they should and shouldn't be able to decide about their own bodies, it's time to look at the kind of people who agree with him. Some hilarious takes follow; A bumper under rated clip and tweet section comes next and the clip of Trump being insulted and sulking like a petulant toddler is almost as funny as the one of a regretful Musk who is clearly not allowed to play with the big boys at The White House any more. Leader of the Lib Dems, Ed Davey, makes a good point about how well that's gone for him. Pudding ends the episode where it began with one from the Broken News vaults belonging to brilliant comedians, Larry and Paul. Enjoy!

This week: why don't we know how many people are in Britain? How many people live in the UK? It's a straightforward question, yet the answer eludes some of the nation's brightest statistical minds, writes Sam Bidwell for the cover this week. Whenever official figures are tested against real-world data, the population is almost always undercounted. For example, in England alone, nearly 64 million patients are registered with GP practices – higher than the Office for National Statistics (ONS)'s estimated population of 58 million. Sam argues there are serious consequences for our society at large, including for tax, housing and our utilities. Who is to blame for this data deficiency? And why is Britain so bad at tackling illegal migration? Sam joined the podcast alongside the broadcaster Trevor Phillips. (1:03) Next: has gender ideology taken over the press regulator? Two months ago, the press regulator Ipso upheld a complaint against The Spectator for the way in which writer Gareth Roberts referred to transgender author Juno Dawson. One person who wasn't surprised by the ruling was Conrad Roeber, who was lead author of a report for the regulator examining how the press treats trans-related issues. In the magazine this week, he argues: ‘It effectively asked me to mark its homework,' and he worries that the case demonstrates that a contentious ideology has taken over the regulator. What does this case mean for the intersection of equality, free speech and a free press? Conrad joined us to discuss, alongside The Spectator's editor Michael Gove. (21:35) And finally: trad dads vs female breadwinners Arabella Byrne argues in favour of ‘trad dads', saying that she is quite happy with her traditional family life with her husband as the main breadwinner. Her piece was (in part) a response to an article by Theo Hobson, published in The Spectator several weeks ago, where he shared his conflicting feelings about his wife being the main earner in his family. How much have societal norms really changed? What impact is there on a spouse who isn't the breadwinner? And for all the talk of gender parity professionally, can it ever truly be achieved in the familial home? Both Arabella and Theo joined us to discuss. (36:00) Hosted by Lara Prendergast and William Moore. Produced by Patrick Gibbons.

I know March is over, but March Madness continues for one more weekend. And I've got to tell you, the women are crushing it. After LSU's defeat against Caitlin Clark and those Iowa Hawkeyes this week, Angel Reese took some time in the post-game conference to reflect on the tough year she's had since winning it all. You know what? She said she has received death threats, been sexualized, and she's just trying to stand tall for her teammates. She does not want them to see her down and not be there for them. I am so proud of all of these young women. They are playing like crazy. And I got to say, I am so upset that this is happening to this girl. Reese says that, you know, she wouldn't change anything even though she has not been happy since winning all of these awards. Well, I'm just going to say, why does this keep happening to Black women athletes? What is going on here? It really does beg that question. Now, you know, I don't usually talk about Kanye West, because he is a sick individual who needs help. All that said, for anyone still interested in buying anything with his name on it, you might want to pay attention to the most recent suit brought against him by an employee of his troubled private Christian school, the Donda Academy. In a lawsuit, the employee says that Yee wanted to shave students heads and lock them in cages. In a text message to this former employee, Trevor Phillips, Ye compared himself to Hitler, minus the gas chambers, and he is also accusing West of calling out Black people in a discriminatory matter, pushing employees to do renovations without permits, and telling employees they will be fired for getting fat. There are so many unsavory things mentioned in this lawsuit that I will not discuss. But just saying, if you're still interested in his music, you might want to take a look at this lawsuit.

Recorded at the Battle of Ideas festival 2023 on Saturday 28 October at Church House, London. ORIGINAL INTRODUCTION ‘Take back control', the central demand from the Leave campaign's case for Brexit, posed the question: who should rule? However, today, when frontpage headlines frequently ask why nothing works in ‘Broken Britain' and politicians blame myriad forces for thwarting democratically decided policies, one increasingly debated issue is: who is really in charge of society? In his recent book, Values, Voice and Virtue, British political scientist Matthew Goodwin argues that the ‘people who really run Britain' are ‘a new dominant class', that imposes its ‘radically progressive cultural values' on the rest of the nation. The Spectator magazine recently devoted its cover to this ‘new elite' and how ‘the woke aristocracy' is on a ‘march through the institutions'. Former government equality tsar Trevor Phillips has written that ‘the political and media elite' have achieved ‘institutional capture' across swathes of the UK's governing apparatus. But is it as simple as a changing of the guard, a new elite grabbing the reins of power? One confusion is a disavowal of responsibility. Goodwin's thesis has caused international controversy, with many labelled as the ‘new elite' denying they have any power. Once upon a time, it would have been easy to see who was in charge: from the Industrial Revolution onwards, barons of the old aristocracy were gradually replaced by ‘business barons' owning big companies, aided and abetted by the clergy, among others. During the years of the postwar consensus, the ‘trade union barons' played a major role, too. And, at its core, was a state apparatus presided over by an elite of politicians. Yet today's governing classes have increasingly dispersed and outsourced their authority to third parties – such as consultants, the judiciary, international bodies, public inquiries, stakeholder bodies, diversity specialists, scientific experts, NGOs, charities, political advisers and the ‘Whitehall Blob'. When things go wrong, the blame game sees fingers pointed in all directions. In this context, some voters are increasingly disillusioned with democracy and conspiratorial thinking thrives. Who is pulling the ideological strings of this new generation of impotent, technocratic politicians? When the Labour leader, Keir Starmer, was asked whether he'd prefer to be in Davos or Westminster, he responded, without missing a beat: ‘Davos'. In other words, the likely next prime minister of the UK prefers the networking opportunities of the World Economy Forum to the mother of parliaments. Is it any wonder so many blame globalist forces for seemingly imposing unpopular policies on nation states with no democratic mandate, whether related to ‘net zero' or gender identity? So, who is directing society in 2023, and what binds them together? Why do our elected politicians lack authority today, or are they simply unwilling to exercise their authority? Are the ‘new elite' as powerful as many would argue or are they simply the public face of the changing interests of the wealthy? Is the intellectual conformity at the helm of society proof of coherence or a lack of ideas and vision? Is it possible to reclaim power for The People? SPEAKERS Pamela Dow chief operating officer, Civic Future Professor Frank Furedi sociologist and social commentator; executive director, MCC Brussels; author, 100 Years of Identity Crisis: culture war over socialisation Matthew Goodwin professor of politics, University of Kent; author, Values Voice and Virtue: The New British Politics , National Populism: the revolt against liberal democracy and Revolt on the Right Harry Lambert staff writer, New Statesman; editor, New Statesman Saturday Read Professor Anand Menon director, UK in a Changing Europe CHAIR Claire Fox director, Academy of Ideas; independent peer, House of Lords; author, I STILL Find That Offensive!

Sir Trevor Phillips discusses the complexities of mental health, which he feels passionate about following the tragic death of his daughter Sushila in 2021, after a long battle with anorexia. Trevor is currently the presenter of Sky New's flagship weekend program ‘Sunday Morning'. He is a businessman and journalist winning multiple awards over the years and previously was the twice serving chair of the London Assembly and the founding chair of the Equality and Human Rights Commission. He was knighted in 2022 for services to equality and human rights.
On the 8th of June 1948, the HMT Windrush sailed from Kingston with almost 500 migrants on board, destined for England. The ship docked at Tilbury on the 22nd of June, and history was made. Since that day the legend of Windrush has gradually come to characterise an increasingly broad and more diverse group of British citizens, and the event stands as a sacred moment in the history of British multiculturalism, race relations and immigration, laden though it is with moral and political baggage. In today's episode Tom and Dominic are joined by acclaimed journalist and author Trevor Phillips, to discuss this seminal moment in the history of Black Britain. During the course of the episode they dismantle some of the myths that have since developed, explore the people who came over, and the emergence of the communities that settled in Britain in the wake of 1948. They also consider the complicated wider context of the Windrush story, and the long term significance of this foundational moment.
Rishi Sunak and his lectern are promising 'long term decisions for a brighter future'. But just whose future is getting brighter? Plans for HS2 are in chaos after rumours the PM might be about to ditch the wildly over-budget rail project. He's called environmental policies heavy handed - and ditched some of those targets. And now his ministers are starting to suggest that inheritance tax could be 'deeply punitive'. Will that be axed too? And we discuss the outlier poll for ABC news which gives Trump a 10 point lead over Biden in a presidential election.[Clip credit: Trevor Phillips on Sky News]Editor: Tom HughesSenior Producer: Gabriel RadusProducer: Laura FitzPatrickPlanning Producer: Alex BarnettSocial Media Editor: Georgia FoxwellVideo Producer: Will Gibson-SmithYou can listen to this episode on Alexa - just say "Alexa, ask Global Player to play The News Agents".The News Agents is a Global Player Original and a Persephonica Production.
As a seasoned protester, Trevor Phillips explores what's wrong with protest today. After getting his first taste for protest as a schoolboy in Guyana (which led to detention in an army barracks and an audience with a government minister) Trevor remembers his days of student activism in the 1970s - which he describes as 'the start of a long and undistinguished career of being a pain in the backside of authority'. Reflecting on the campaigns of groups like Just Stop Oil, he argues that many of today's protesters simply choose the wrong target. He concludes that there is still a point to protest, even though success might not be immediate - because victory may come later, and in a way that's often unpredictable.

What does it mean to be patriotic in 2023? Following the significant population movements of recent years, leaders in European states are increasingly trying to foster a sense of identity that can hold together their diverse societies. In his recent book, “How to be a patriot: Why love of country can end our very British culture war”, Sunder Katwala draws on many years of research and scholarship in the UK to consider what collective identity without division, fear of immigration, and racism might look like. In this episode, he joins Mark Leonard to explore some identity-related dilemmas in post-Brexit Britain. How did immigration and European interact in the run-up to the 2016 referendum? And can the rest of Europe draw any lessons from the UK's experience? This podcast was recorded on 19 June 2023.

On 22 June 1948, HMT Empire Windrush arrived in the UK. The ship carried 1,027 passengers and two stowaways on a voyage from Jamaica to London. Of these, more than 800 passengers gave their last country of residence as somewhere in the Caribbean. On arrival in the UK, however, people were often met with racism, a lack of acknowledgement of their professional skills and very different living conditions. The Windrush's arrival has become symbolic of the generation of Commonwealth citizens who came to live in Britain between 1948 and 1973. Some 75 years on, broadcaster Sir Trevor Phillips sits down with Sky News Daily host Niall Paterson to explore the impact and influence of the Windrush generation on British life and culture.

Welcome to another episode of the For Stars Podcast, where today we get to hear from rower, coach, and overall team player, Trevor Phillips. Graduating from the Newport Aquatic Center Varsity Men's team in 2017, Trevor left as a United States Rowing Youth National Champion in the Men's Varsity 8+. After Youth Nationals, Trevor enrolled at UCLA where he joined their Men's Rowing team. Meanwhile, his outlook on rowing changed instantly, and quite honestly, did not know what he was getting into, being a member of arguably one of the most successful youth rowing clubs in the nation, with one of the most elite and profound rowing center's to train in, to a collegiate club team not funded by the university. Despite the challenges, Trevor was ready to take on the challenge of being a Bruin and add onto the history of the UCLA Men's Rowing team for not just four, but five years of collegiate racing. While at UCLA, Phillips and his teammates won the 2019 Head of the Charles in the 4+, as well as many other races during his time there.After UCLA, Trevor circled back to his roots at the Newport Aquatic Center, where he once trained in high school, and is now a Varsity Women's Rowing coach. Hudson and Trevor discuss the high school rowing scene changes not just at NAC but in the world as a whole (more specifically the USA), collegiate club rowing - what goes into it all, the struggles and benefits, the backend, at which not too many people get to see, and why he chose UCLA over Northeastern (a highly-ranked and competitive D1 crew team). In addition to this, the boys chat about the overall benefit of rowing, history of UCLA Men's Rowing, the difference between Good Rowing and Great Rowing, and the COVID Year (which granted Trevor and his classmates an extra year of eligibility). Unfortunately, Trevor had a partial stint in his career at UCLA where he actually quit the team, which is discussed in the podcast episode as well.Trevor aims to give student-athletes guidance on the entire college recruitment process, ACT/SAT prep, and more, so be sure to reach out to him @rowingtrev on Instagram, and tune into Trevor's podcast with FSP and how rowing ultimately changed his life for the greater good.Xeno Müller - Elite Rowing Coach Make your rowing dreams real!

Trevor Phillips argues that Britain, in its desperation to eliminate inequality, risks destroying the very principles that have drawn people here for generations. He points to its eccentricity, its easy going tolerance and its spirit of non-conformity, but he believes 'zealots' are slowly demanding a new sort of 'group-think' that has all the features of a repressive sect. 'I, for one, hope that the rough spirit of British eccentricity, the awkward squad, of putting two fingers up to the establishment, endures.'

Interviewees including Peter Jay, former Times economics editor and first Weekend World presenter; Matthew Parris, Weekend World's last presenter; producers David Aaronovitch, Trevor Phillips and Peter Mandelson, politicians including Neil Kinnock, Tony Blair, and William Hague, and prominent journalists Jeremy Vine and John Humphrys.
