The UK Government has made some concessions to its plans for changes to Personal Independence Payments and Universal Credit. Although there are some grey areas, with a better update on Monday June 30th, they have made the following proposed updates, which will go before Parliament on July 1st. RNIB Connect Radio's Allan Russell spoke to Roisin Jacklin, from RNIB's Campaigns Team, to look at some of the suggested changes.

The Chartered Institute of Horticulture recently published the results of its survey into rates of melanoma among horticulturists and the alarming but perhaps not unsurprising results showed one in eight of the 700 respondents said they had been diagnosed with some form of skin cancer. HortWeek wanted to lend it's voice to its campaign and invited the CIH's Jason Daff, Susanna Daniels from Melanoma Focus and Andrew Poole, farmer and agronomist and skin cancer survivor, to talk about the findings of the report, and how employers can support workers within the horticulture sector to take simple precautions to protect themselves from sun damage and prevent skin cancer.Jason gives an overview of the reports findings, one of the most striking of which was that men are almost twice as likely to have been diagnosed with skin cancer compared to women, perhaps due to the presence of sun protection in some women's skincare products, but also perhaps, Andrew speculates, due to a more 'macho' attitude and a reticence among men when it comes to looking after their skin. As Andrew says:"When I was a lot younger, it was a cavalier attitude to go out and it was almost a badge of honour to be burnt."I had the attitude, well I work outside...my life is outside, I'm gonna be protected, my skin has built up a resistance, I'll be fine."But clearly not, it's caught up with me later in life."Susanna outlines best practice on choosing and applying suncream - crucially not forgetting the tops of the ears - and explains how each incidence of sun burn can drastically increase the probability of a person developing skin cancer in their lifetime.She also highlights the responsibility employers have to provide suncream, argues that it should be regarded as PPE for outdoor workers, and to that end, CIH is lobbying the UK Government to make it exempt from VAT.For more information on melanoma in the workplace, how employers can help educate and protect employees resources and much more, visit https://melanomafocus.org/.

To much fanfare, Britain has announced yet another "strategic" defence review - the fifth that a UK Government has undertaken in the last 15 years. The peculiar thing, however, is that despite the frequency of these reviews, they have a strong tendency to assert continuity over change. This is certainly the narrative of the present UK Government's latest review: that nothing has changed in UK and US transatlantic relations, apart from the willingness, they suggest, of the UK to spend more on defence. Trump's close friendship with Vladimir Putin and sympathy towards Russia's geopolitical narrative - and the broader turbulence of American politics he forms part of - is, apparently, unimportant for Britain's future defence and security arrangements. And rather than address the varied range of threats and challenges, the review advocates more submarines and nuclear weapons as its big-ticket proposals. In this podcast, Zoe Williams, Luke Cooper and Mary Kaldor discuss this muddled and small-c conservative thinking. They lay out what an alternative defence policy would be, at the centre of which should be a closer relationship with our European allies.  For more on the discussion in this podcast, check out Luke and Mary's recent blog, "‘Organised irresponsibility': How Britain's defence strategy clings to a bygone world"

The UK Government is set to purchase 12 new fighter jets which can be equipped with nuclear bombs - with plans to join NATO's airborne nuclear mission. Downing Street has labelled the move "the biggest strengthening of the UK's nuclear posture in a generation." UK correspondent Gavin Grey says these jets can also drop conventional weapons.

Iranian officials have vowed to "decisively respond" after it accused Israel of violating the ceasefire between the nations. The country's Supreme National Security Council said its armed forces were ready. Donald Trump blasted both countries, claiming "they don't know what the f***k they are doing," in a furious rant to reporters live on air. At home, Scottish Labour MPs have hit out at the "threats" being made to "strong arm" them into backing the UK Government's benefit cuts. More than a hundred have signed an amendment against the £5 billion welfare reforms. This would be enough to bring down the bill. Will Starmer press ahead regardless?

Bullied almost every day as a shy, small-built expat kid in London, Ash quickly realized that survival wasn't about being the loudest in the room, it was about finding your people. The lack of connection in those early years made one thing painfully clear: community isn't a luxury, it's oxygen. Ash powered through adversity, earning degrees from MIT and Oxford, not just collecting certificates, but building a mind sharpened by code and a heart tuned to human behavior. He went on to lead major tech projects for the BBC, HMRC, and the UK Government, impacting millions of lives — but something was missing. That "something" became Odd Circles, his bold answer to a quiet crisis: coaches, mentors, and solo experts stuck in isolation, overbooked and underpaid, struggling to grow in a world demanding scale. With Odd Circles, Ash built more than a SaaS platform — he built a movement, helping coaches turn one-way content into two-way conversations, followers into paying members, and burnout into belonging. Today, thousands of creators and experts use Odd Circles to build communities that 3x their income, but more importantly, they build circles where no one feels like the odd one out.

The US government has raised security concerns about plans by Chinese company Mingyang to build a wind turbine factory in Scotland. Trump administration officials warned the UK about what they call national security risks. The factory would supply wind farms in the North Sea. UK ministers are now reviewing whether to block the project. They're worried about cybersecurity and being too dependent on Chinese technology. Security officials say Chinese wind turbines could contain electronic surveillance equipment. Mingyang is not state-owned, but critics worry the Chinese government could interfere. Deputy First Minister Kate Forbes had said Scotland was open to the factory. But the Scottish Government is waiting for security guidance from Westminster. A UK Government spokesperson said they would never let anything threaten national security. All energy investments face the highest security checks. Construction has officially started on Belgium's major offshore energy project. Workers cut the first steel this week at a factory in the Netherlands. They're building parts for the Princess Elisabeth hub. The artificial island will sit twenty-eight miles off the Belgian coast. The project will transport at least two point one gigawatts of wind energy to the mainland. That's enough power for millions of homes. HSM Offshore Energy is making high-voltage equipment at their Schiedam yard. Commercial director Hans Leerdam says this marks a key moment for European energy security. The island will also connect Belgium to other European countries, including the UK. Final assembly will happen in Schiedam and Vlissingen. Leerdam calls it one of Europe's most strategic energy projects moving from plan to reality. The UK government has announced a massive boost for offshore wind energy. Great British Energy is leading a one billion pound investment package. The money will fund wind turbine manufacturing, floating platforms, and port upgrades. Three hundred million pounds comes from Great British Energy. The Crown Estate and private companies are adding another seven hundred million pounds. The investment targets key regions including Teesside, South Wales, East Anglia, and Scotland. Officials say it will create thousands of skilled jobs. The government is also offering up to five hundred forty-four million pounds through its Clean Industry Bonus. This encourages developers to invest in deprived areas. The North East of England could receive up to two hundred million pounds. That might unlock four billion pounds in private investment. Scotland gets up to one hundred eighty-five million pounds for ports and high-tech components. The offshore wind expansion should support fourteen thousand new jobs over four years. Industry leaders believe this could boost the UK economy by twenty-five billion pounds by twenty thirty-five. Turkey is planning a major expansion of its wind energy capacity. The country aims to reach forty-eight gigawatts of wind power by twenty thirty-five. Turkey currently has nearly fourteen gigawatts installed. That makes it the sixth largest wind power producer in Europe and twelfth in the world.

We speak with Lisa Harker, the Director of the Nuffield Family Justice Observatory, who gives us an insight into the alarming rise in the use of Deprivation of Liberty Orders on children.  She explains how vulnerable children, many born into poverty and facing complex needs, are increasingly subjected to severe restrictions on their freedom through these court orders.  According to the latest statistics from the Ministry of Justice, 1,280 children were subject to applications to deprive them of their liberty in 2024 in England and Wales. Lisa and her team at the Nuffield Family Justice Observatory have been researching the issue, and have even provided evidence to the UK Government on why this practice which resembles incarceration needs to stop. The Nuffield Family Justice Observatory is an independent research body, funded by the Nuffield Foundation that improves the lives of children and families by putting data and evidence at the heart of the family justice system.

Should Prince Harry have retained Royalty Protection? (Part 2) Black Spy Podcast, 195, Season 20, Episode 0006 In this week's Black Spy Podcasts, Carlton King and his compatriots, Firgas Esack and Doctor Rachel Taylor delve into the subject of the provision of state controlled close protection operations. As they began last week in part one, the team continues looking into the fall out of the court decision on to agree with the UK Home Office and the Metropolitan Police Service to withdraw police close protection from Prince Harry and his family. The argument played out in the UK Government, Civil Service, Police and finally the High Court was that the withdrawal of Prince Harry's 24 hour armed close protection was seemingly based on the fact that now Prince Harry is estranged from the British royal family and hence no longer undertaking royal duties, that state, in the form of the Royalty Protection section of the RaSP department (Royalty and Specialist Protection Command) of the Metropolitan Police Service should no longer provide Prince Harry with this state sponsored function. Whereas, Prince Harry's argument was, that by virtue of his birth into the Royal Family that regardless of his role, he'd still be seen as intrinsically linked to the very essence of the UK and hence be at threat from the UK's enemies. Carlton uses his decades of expertise in the UK's governmental protection, national security and secret intelligence fields to answer the questions on this issue posed by his podcast colleagues. Moreover some surprising connectivity is uncovered by both Firgas and Dr Rachel vis-a-vis Prince Harry's situation. So, if you want to continue learning whilst being entertained this and next week's continuation of this subject are must listen episodes.

As one of the most illustrious rock stars of the sustainability movement, Tim Jackson suggests that we must “f**k the patriarchy” to get beyond capitalism. In his new book, The Care Economy, Jackson argues that our growth-obsessed capitalist economic system is fundamentally dysfunctional, prioritizing wealth accumulation over health and wellbeing. He advocates replacing GDP-focused metrics with care-based economics that emphasizes balance and restoration rather than endless expansion. Jackson critiques how Big Food and Big Pharma profit from making people sick then selling expensive treatments, creating a "false economy." Drawing a dotted line from Bobby Kennedy to RFK Jr., he sees health as the unifying political issue that will enable us to bridge traditional divides. five key takeaways 1. Redefine Prosperity as Health, Not Wealth True prosperity should be measured by health (physical, psychological, and community wellbeing) rather than GDP growth. Jackson argues that endless accumulation undermines the balance necessary for genuine human flourishing.2. The Food-Pharma Industrial Complex is a "False Economy" Big Food creates addictive, unhealthy products that cause chronic disease, then Big Pharma profits from treating symptoms rather than causes. This cycle generates GDP growth while systematically undermining public health.3. Care Work is the Foundation of All Economic Activity The predominantly female-performed labor of caring for children, elderly, and sick people is invisible to traditional economics but essential for society's functioning. This unpaid work must be recognized and valued.4. Individual Solutions Can't Fix Systemic Problems While people can make personal health choices, expecting individuals to overcome an engineered food environment designed to exploit human psychology is unrealistic. Systemic change is required.5. Health Could Unite Across Political Divides Unlike abstract environmental concerns, health is universally relatable and could serve as a rallying point for economic reform that appeals to both working-class and affluent communities.Tim Jackson is an ecological economist and writer. Since 2016 he has been Director of the Centre for the Understanding of Sustainable Prosperity (CUSP). CUSP is a multidisciplinary research centre which aims to understand the economic, social and political dimensions of sustainable prosperity. Its guiding vision for prosperity is one in which people everywhere have the capability to flourish as human beings—within the ecological and resource constraints of a finite planet. Tim has been at the forefront of international debates on sustainability for three decades and has worked closely with the UK Government, the United Nations, the European Commission, numerous NGOs, private companies and foundations to bring economic and social science research into sustainability. During five years at the Stockholm Environment Institute in the early 1990s, he pioneered the concept of preventative environmental management—a core principle of the circular economy—outlined in his 1996 book Material Concerns: Pollution Profit and Quality of life. From 2004 to 2011 he was Economics Commissioner for the UK Sustainable Development Commission where his work culminated in the publication of his controversial and ground-breaking book Prosperity without Growth (2009/2017) which has subsequently been translated into twenty foreign languages. It was named as a Financial Times ‘book of the year' in 2010 and UnHerd's economics book of the decade in 2019. In 2016, Tim was awarded the Hillary Laureate for exceptional international leadership in sustainability. His book Post Growth—life after capitalism (Polity Press, 2021) won the 2022 Eric Zencey Prize for Economics. His latest book The Care Economy was published in April 2025. Tim holds degrees in mathematics (MA, Cambridge), philosophy (MA, Uni Western Ontario) and physics (PhD, St Andrews). He also holds honorary degrees at the University of Brighton in the UK and the Université Catholique de Louvain in Belgium. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society for the Arts, the Academy of Social Sciences and the Belgian Royal Academy of Science. In addition to his academic work, he is an award-winning dramatist with numerous radio-writing credits for the BBC.Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators. In addition to presenting the daily KEEN ON show, he is the host of the long-running How To Fix Democracy interview series. He is also the author of four prescient books about digital technology: CULT OF THE AMATEUR, DIGITAL VERTIGO, THE INTERNET IS NOT THE ANSWER and HOW TO FIX THE FUTURE.

Should Prince Harry have retained Royalty Protection? (Part 1) Black Spy Podcast, 195, Season 20, Episode 0005   In this week's Black Spy Podcasts, Carlton King and his compatriots, Firgas Esack and Doctor Rachel Taylor delve into the subject of the provision of state controlled close protection operations. Specifically the team assess the fall out of the court decision to agree with the UK Home Office and the Metropolitan Police Service to no longer provide this support to Prince Harry. The argument played out in the UK Government, Civil Service, Police and finally the High Court was that the withdrawal of Prince Harry's 24 hour armed close protection was seemingly based on the fact that now Prince Harry is estranged from the British royal family and hence no longer undertaking royal duties, that state, in the form of the Royalty Protection section of the RaSP department (Royalty and Specialist Protection Command) of the Metropolitan Police Service should no longer provide Prince Harry with this state sponsored function. Whereas, Prince Harry's argument was, that by virtue of his birth into the Royal Family that regardless of his role, he'd still be seen as intrinsically linked to the very essence of the UK and hence be at threat from the UK's enemies. Carlton uses his decades of expertise in the UK's governmental protection, national security and secret intelligence fields to answer the questions on this issue posed by his podcast colleagues. Moreover some surprising connectivity is uncovered by both Firgas and Dr Rachel vis-a-vis Prince Harry's situation. So, if you want to continue learning whilst being entertained this and next week's continuation of this subject are must listen episodes.

The entire recruiting landscape is undergoing a profound transformation as organizations grapple with the implications of AI and the economic disruption 2025 is bringing. Talent acquisition teams are drowning in applications while simultaneously being asked to do more with fewer resources. Candidates find themselves in increasingly dehumanized processes where ghosting is now the norm. At the same time, regulatory bodies are developing laws to ensure fairness and transparency around the use of AI in hiring. So, how can employers navigate this challenging terrain while creating fair, accessible, and effective hiring processes? My guest this week is Ruth Miller, a talent acquisition and HR consultant who works across the public and private sectors. Ruth is an advisor to the Better Hiring Institute, working with the UK Government on developing legislation around AI in recruiting. In our conversation, she shares her insights into how organizations can proactively develop strategies that balance innovation with compliance while enhancing rather than diminishing the human elements of hiring. - Different perceptions and reactions to AI among employers across sectors - The paradox of AI both introducing and potentially removing bias from hiring processes - Neurodivergent candidates and AI in job applications - Common misconceptions job seekers have about employers' AI usage. - Strategic advice for organizations implementing AI in recruitment - The future of recruitment and the evolving balance between AI and human interaction Follow this podcast on Apple Podcasts.
