How do we grow steady legs of resilience in uncertain times? In this episode Amisha talks with Ronan Harrington, a resilience expert and accomplished voice on the transformative power of adversity. He advises organisations and institutions on how to move from Burnout to Resilience and counts Deloitte, KPMG, Sky, the UK Government and Oxford University amongst his clients. He has held a variety of roles bridging personal and societal transformation as lead futurist to the British Foreign Office, co-coordinator for the political strategy for Extinction Rebellion and founder of Alter Ego, a European network of political leaders and activists growing connection between spirituality and politics. Ronan speaks about his strive to transform the political frameworks of our time by introducing spirituality and mysticism into its mainstream to forge deep cultural change. He believes that political acts can be acts of grace and his work with Alter Ego, was a space to decondition and nourish political leaders and activists into integrity. Amisha and Ronan share their personal histories of burnout and chronic health conditions, and how it has affected the way they move in the world. They recognise that attempting cultural transformation requires us to have a well-resourced support structure; financially, spiritually, emotionally and physically. Ronan talks about his work as a resilience leader finding ways to equip us with soft foundations and strong cores that can move with the tremors of our time. We learn that our times call for us to increase our forms of resilience in ways that enable us to embrace dualities, and to hold ultimate grief and ultimate possibility at the same time; muscles we need to grow to be able to fly closer to the sun.

From the BBC World Service: The European Union’s banking regulator says it doesn’t see “any threat to financial stability of European Banks”, following the collapse of SVB. We ask an economics professor at a French business school why European banks are less likely to fail. We spoke to him before Credit Suisse’s shares collapsed after a major shareholder said it would not continue to invest. Also, the UK Government will be hoping for less turmoil as it prepares to announce its budget; the last one led to the pound reaching record lows and cost the then Prime Minister her job. Plus, we report from Beirut where the Lebanese currency is in freefall.

March 2023 marks the 20th anniversary of the Iraq war, seeing US and British troops enter the country - the legalities of which are still debated today. The legacy it's left behind includes over 1 million Iraqi deaths, thousands of troops, and a power vacuum that allowed the rise to power of terrorist organisation, ISIS. So how did the United Kingdom end up embroiled in a so called ‘Illegal War', and was there anything that could've been done to prevent it?In the first episode of our March mini-series, reflecting back on the Iraq war, James is joined by Dr James Strong to examine Tony Blair and the UK Government's involvement in the middle east. Looking at the series of events paving the way for the invasion, inaccurate MI6 information, and the role the so called ‘Special Relationship' played - it asks the question, why was Blair so desperate to get into Iraq, and what legacy has he left behind?This episode was produced by Annie Coloe.

We're all over the politically correct spectrum this week. On one hand, James had his epic hunting adventure last weekend, while on the other hand, Toby is struggling to adjust to his new role as "Mr. Mom" now that an empowered Caroline has left for a two week holiday in Barbados. Meanwhile, there's a lot on the censorship front as we take on the list of media that the UK Government's "anti-extremism unit" thinks could turn you into a far right terrorist, the appalling rewrite of Roald Dahl's children's books by Puffin, and the weaponisation of ‘disinformation' by the Global Disinformation Index to try to demonetise right-of-centre news publishing sites. We also note the protest against 15-minute cities in Oxford. In Culture Corner, James took a trip to Bath to see a Genesis cover band, the vertiginous decline of Marvel Studios and the joys of Clarkson's Farm. Opening sound this week is Peter Hitchens on Michael Graham's TalkTV programme on the Dahl rewrite, via YouTube.

Date of Lecture: 31 January 2023 About the Lecture: The UCL Energy Transitions Modelling Lab has developed a series of energy system models over the last 20 years that have had a profound impact on UK energy policy. The most recent model, UK TIMES, was used by the UK Government to develop scenarios for both the Clean Growth Strategy and the Net Zero Strategy. These models straddle the boundaries between economics, engineering and the natural environment. In this lecture, we will dissect the UK TIMES model to explore how it works, its strengths and weaknesses, and how it can be used (and misused) by policymakers and researchers. We will then consider future developments of the model and how it could help us to plan a low-carbon transition where you live. About the Speaker: Paul Dodds, Professor of Energy Systems at UCL Energy Institute

Martin Glenn was CEO of The FA for four years until 2018, following a career as a senior executive at United Biscuits and PepsiCo, where he famously made Gary Lineker the face of Walkers Crisps.

Revenue increased 40% and the organisation became noticeably more diverse. England teams began performing better; he sacked Sam Allardyce as England manager and replaced him with Gareth Southgate; nearly sold Wembley Stadium to Shahid Khan and was a big supporter of the women's game at all levels.Today Glenn is chair of The Football Foundation, the charity that distributes money from the Premier League, The FA and the UK Government to help fund grassroots football facilities.  ReThinking Sport is our series created in collaboration with Portas, the global strategy consultancy dedicated to sport and physical activity.  Every episode of ReThinking Sport can be found by searching Unofficial Partner via the big podcast providers, including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts or via your favourite podcast app. Unofficial Partner is the leading podcast for the business of sport.

It's Casual Friday! Sam and Emma host Jamelle Bouie, opinion columnist at the New York Times and co-host of the Unclear and Present Danger podcast, to round up the week in news. Then, they're joined by Hamza Syed, co-host of The Trojan Horse Affair podcast, available from the New York Times and Serial. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Biden leading the US through another strong quarter for labor, Blinken delaying his trip to China amidst the arrival of a “Spy Weather balloon” in the US, George Santos, the removal of Rep Ilhan Omar from the Foreign Affairs Committee, and the Fed continuing their full-on assault on labor, before diving into Fox's juxtaposition of a strong labor market with Ford failing to meet some of their own revenue expectations. Jamelle Bouie then joins as he dives right into the murder of Tyre Nichols at the hands of the Memphis Police Department's Scorpion Squad, and the importance of understanding the impact of the hyper-policing of marginalized communities on their relationship to politics and the state writ large. Bouie walks through the work of Joe Soss and Vesla Weaver that paints police as the most direct relationship that marginalized communities have with the state, understanding that their treatment at the hands of police creates a pessimistic view of the state and encourages a removal from the political system entirely. Capping off that conversation, Jamelle, Emma, and Sam walk through marginalized communities' relationship to crime, understanding their fellow citizens as overpoliced in daily life while under-policed in terms of the actual risks to the community via violent crime, all serving to paint their social role, as understood by the state, as one of developing criminality rather than active citizenship. Next, Jamelle Bouie parses through the nascent stages of the GOP presidential race, why DeSantis and much of the rest of the Right relies on culture war discourse over policy, why the media struggles to handle GOP lies after decades of embracing them, Donald Trump's role as an outside candidate even in 2024, and the constitutional nature of debt ceiling debates. They also talk with Hamza Syed about his work uncovering the Islamophobic response of the UK Government to obviously false papers covering an Islamic coup of Birmingham's education system, and the UK Policy Exchange's and much of the media's attempt to paint his journalism as an extension of this Islamist project of extremism. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch Kevin McCarthy try to defend the removal of Ilhan Omar from the Foreign Affairs Committee as “precedent” following the removal of Marjorie Taylor Greene and Paul Gosar for threats against other sitting congresspeople. They also dive into the recent House vote to denounce socialism and what that means for the future of socialist policies like M4A, with 109 Democrats joining the Right on the vote, Ben Shapiro talks girl pants and why they can never be paired with boy legs, and Donald Trump rags on Ron DeSantis' whimpering for help ahead of his 2018 race, plus, your calls and IMs!

The UK government has rejected menopause leave for workplaces, which would have allowed time off during periods of acute symptoms. A parliamentary committee made the recommendation because the symptoms of menopause are so acute for some women, they decide to quit work.

The British Government has admitted hundreds of child asylum seekers have gone missing since it started housing young people in hotels due to a strain on the country's asylum accommodation system.

When it comes to marketing, the world isn't craving more cutthroat strategies, spammy ads, heavily branded content or TikTok dances. People are yearning for a sense of belonging and community - a safe space for them to be true to themselves.   From a brand marketing perspective, there's a rock solid business case to put community front and center of what we do. The more entrepreneurs build movement and collective-based businesses, the better off the whole world's going to be.   Why is community such a key part of marketing businesses today? How do we build our businesses on ideas that are worth rallying behind?   In this episode, marketing futurist, keynote speaker, mentor, educator and author of the new book “Belonging to the Brand”, Mark Schaefer returns to talk about the book, and why community matters so much in the businesses we build and run.   We have a bunch of people that feel alone and are yearning for business owners to create a safe space. They want to buy your stuff because they love the world you're creating. -Dana Malstaff   3 Things You'll Learn in This Episode Why communities failWhat's the difference between a community and audience? Why a TikTok approach to marketing doesn't work for everybodyDo people feel out of integrity because they are being taught to approach marketing as entertainers instead of educators? How to provide validation through marketingEveryone is surrounded by people who make them feel bad about how they think the world should work. How can we give them permission to feel good about themselves?    Guest Bio   Mark Schaefer is one of the world's leading marketing futurists, keynote speakers, educators and business consultants. He's the author of many bestselling books, including his new book “Belonging to the Brand: Why Community is the Last Great Marketing Strategy” which hit hit #1 in Marketing on Amazon.

What is a Section 35 order, and why has it sparked a row about devolution and democracy? The UK Government has triggered Section 35 of The Scotland Act to formally block the Scottish Government's Gender Recognition Reform legislation from reaching royal assent. As First Minister Nicola Sturgeon says the row will "inevitably" end up in court, Professor Nicola McEwen from the Centre on Constitutional Change joins the team to discuss the ramifications of this action on the constitutional debate. Why is the veto of Scottish laws by the UK Government so controversial, why are some worried about the future of Westminster powers over Scottish legislation, and what happens next?

ENVIRONMENT AUDIT COMMITTEE RECOMMEND IEA PLAN TO UKThe Environment Audit Committee, from Parliament, has recommended the UK Government implement the ideas from the International Energy Agency (IEA)'s ten-point plan to reduce oil usage. Some of the suggestions are reducing the speed limits by at least 10km/h, allowing cars to enter cities on alternate days of the week, encouraging working from home and more. Click here to read the article on Autocar. For the IEA plan, click this link here. FUEL STILL TOO EXPENSIVEWhilst the wholesale price of oil has dropped, particularly in December, the retail price has not matched the same pace. This comes as no surprise to anyone, mind you. There has been seemingly constant calls on the big retailers, including supermarkets, to drop their prices more than they have, but to no avail. Click here to learn more, from a Motoring Research article. POTHOLE DAMAGE UP 34% SINCE 2016In another piece of news that is not surprising in any shape or form, we find out that damage to cars from potholes has risen 34% since 2016. The suggestion is that due to the cold and the wet, which this winter has treated the UK to, the quality of roads will deteriorate further, meaning even more claims. Sunday was ‘National Pothole Day', as promoted by Admiral insurance. Click here for more, from Motoring Research. UNMARKED SPEED CAMERA VANS TRIALEDNorthamptonshire Police are trialling the use of unmarked speed camera vans, in an effort to see if they deter excessive speeding and phone use behind the wheel.

Northern Ireland households have start to receive their energy payment vouchers today.

In today's episode of Intelligence Squared, we hear from our podcast dedicated to exploring the possibilities of what lies ahead: The Futureverse.  What if the solution to solving extreme poverty was as simple as giving cash to those who need it?  GiveDirectly, the fastest growing NGO founded this century, does just that. By allowing donors to send money directly to the world's poorest, it has revolutionised the aid sector. In the last decade, GiveDirectly has delivered $580M+ to over 1.37 million people across eleven countries. Cash in hand, no strings attached.  In this episode, Kamal Ahmed is joined by the President of GiveDirectly Rory Stewart to discuss GiveDirectly's work, the profound implications of direct cash transfers and why we all have a duty to do what we can to uplift the global poor. Rory's career, which has taken him from Iraq, where he was Deputy-Governor of two provinces following the invasion in 2003, to the UK Government, where he served as Secretary of State for International Development, has shaped his approach to his own legacy, and what it means to be a good ancestor. Kamal and Rory discuss this and more in this wide-ranging interview with one of the most knowledgeable and compelling voices on international development and the charity sector.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Well the Golden Globes huh, how about them apples? Also how are no physical games being sold in the UK, that makes absolutely no sense. Some genre defining directors are making some missteps, WarnerBros is trying out a "were sorry" approach, Paramount+ makes some interesting choices for non Star Trek Properties.

Sinn Fein say, Mary Lou McDonald was snubbed and told she could not attend the meeting.

18 months after the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan, File on 4 hears from people still stuck in hiding; their names blacklisted because of the work they did for the British. Following the fall of the country and the frantic evacuation, the UK Government made a series of promises not to leave behind those who'd helped the UK. The programme investigates the failures of these schemes, which have seen tiny numbers getting to safety in the UK. Thousands more left living in fear, facing torture and kidnap have been left languishing for months without contact or support.

Wales has the highest imprisonment rate in Western Europe for men and the third highest for women but until recently we simply didn't know about it. Unlike Northern Ireland and Scotland, Wales doesn't have control over its own justice and policing system and instead it is part of the 'England and Wales' system. Many would argue that this is de facto an 'England, including Wales' system as Wales is a relatively small part of the system and largely an afterthought and until very recently there simply wasn't any Wales-specific data published by the UK Government. Thanks to years of Freedom of Information (FOI) requests and other new research Dr Rob Jones and Prof. Richard Wyn Jones have been able to produce a groundbreaking book exploring the state of the Welsh criminal justice system and the problems caused by trying to maintain a Westminster-centric system in the age of devolution. In this recording, Richard and Rob discuss the challenges facing these core public services as they try to serve two different masters of two very different political persuasions in London and Cardiff.

The UK government wants to regulate OTT platforms. According to reports, the new law gives Ofcom's jurisdiction the authority to fine these OTTs up to 250,000 pounds if the platforms don't comply with the new laws. And for the main segment we are taking a closer look at the new pledge signed at COP15. Nearly 200 countries signed what is being touted as a 'historic agreement' to arrest biodiversity loss. The agreement itself maybe a historic milestone but none of it is legally binding. So who's going to be keeping a check?

When Putin launched his invasion of Ukraine, thousands signed up to support Ukrainian refugees and put them up in their own homes. Nearly a year on, is our government still doing enough to support those fleeing the war? Stan Beneš, a trustee of Opora, a charity which helps Ukrainians to settle in the UK, joins Ros Taylor to explore what we can do to help those displaced by the conflict in Ukraine.  https://opora.uk/ “Instead of government support, it became the job of charities to match people.” “There is no one cohesive process of matching Ukrainian refugees with sponsors.”  “People were finding hosts on Facebook.” Support us on Patreon www.patreon.com/bunkercast  Presented by Ros Taylor.

The United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs and the UK Government are launching a new project to enhance international expertise in the registration of space objects. The multi-year project strengthens an already solid foundation of joint efforts between the partners covering topics such as space sustainability and climate action. The United Nations Register of Objects Launched into Outer Space is a treaty-based mechanism which promotes transparency in outer space activities. Since the beginning of the space age, more than 14,000 satellites have been launched, and 85 percent of them have been registered with the UN. UNOOSA has received over 2,000 satellite registrations in 2022 alone and potentially 100,000 satellites could be launched over the next decade. ------------ NASA has selected Rocket Lab to provide the launch service for the agency's TROPICS mission. TROPICS is the Time-Resolved Observations of Precipitation Structure and Storm Intensity with a Constellation of Smallsats. It is part of the NASA's Venture-class Acquisition of Dedicated and Rideshare ... or VADR ... launch services contract. Rocket Lab is one of 13 companies NASA selected for VADR contracts in 2022, which are managed by NASA's Launch Services Program based at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. As part of VADR, the fixed-price indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contracts have a five-year ordering period with a maximum total value of $300 million across all contracts. The TROPICS mission consists of four CubeSats intended for two low-Earth orbital planes and is part of NASA's Earth System Science Pathfinder Program. Rocket Lab will launch the TROPICS satellites into their operational orbits during a 60-day period no earlier than May 1 of next year, enabling NASA to provide observations during the 2023 Atlantic hurricane season. ---------------- According to Frost & Sullivan‘s recent report, Global Satellite Propulsion Solutions Market, commercial and private end-user satellite constellations generate a steady demand for propulsion systems because they provide communications and satellite imaging. The global market is expected to reach $216.32 billion by 2031, up from $93.33 billion in 2021, representing a compound annual growth rate of 8.7 percent. ---------------- Retired US Air Force Colonel Lee Rosen is the newest member of the founding team of ThinkOrbital, a start-up scalable space infrastructure company. The former SpaceX VP of Mission and Launch Operations, and Customer Operations and Integration, Rosen spent over a decade involved in more than 150 successful missions at SpaceX.

We've been off-piste for a while now so we thought we'd jump straight back into the deep sea with a series of episodes on deep-sea habitats. We're starting off strong with a huge episode on seamounts! We speak to a friend of the show, Ashley Rowden who's an expert in all-things benthic and we find out why seamounts are just so cool. We also get a little distracted and reminisce about the ultimate offshore championship: sausage-fest.  We get to hear from the scientists on board the RRS Discovery who are currently on an expedition to discover the life that exists on
