We were at the Institute for Government for the sixth event in the IfG DevoLab series, held in partnership with the JUST Centre, at which speakers from three regions with devolved powers set out how mayors and strategic authorities can use their powers, funding and influence to support a just climate transition. The three case studies presented at IfG DevoLab #6 were: ‘The Local Net Zero Accelerator programme in the West Midlands' by Barbara Leach, Programme Manager at West Midlands Combined Authority ‘Devolution and local power for communities in the North West of England', by James Johnson, Head of Regional Programme at the North West Net Zero Hub ‘Place-based climate action in Yorkshire and the Humber - the Climate Commission model', by Rosa Foster, Director at Yorkshire and Humber Climate Commission These speakers were joined by Professor Matthew Paterson, Deputy Director at the JUST Centre, for a broader discussion of the benefits of devolution and mayoral leadership for this agenda, how places are developing new ways of governing and new forms of participation to ensure that the climate transition is just, joined-up and reflects local needs, and what might be achieved by further devolution. This event was chaired by Akash Paun, Programme Director at the Institute for Government. The IfG DevoLab is dedicated to exploring the innovations enabled by devolution, learning from the results, and sharing the lessons so that places can take better decisions about how to use devolved powers and budgets. Insights from this discussion will inform a published policy briefing containing the three case studies and a synthesis of key lessons. We would like to thank the Centre for Joined-Up Sustainability Transformations (JUST) for kindly supporting this event. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Kevin Costner gambled hard on making a three hour western, a third of which wasn't in the English language. He turned down roles in The Hunt For Red October and Presumed Innocent to take the risk of making Dances With Wolves. And while history tells it as a masterstroke, in the months leading up to the release, it looked anything but. In this episode, Simon digs into the story of the film, the fact that it was millions short of its modest budget when shooting began... and now, the tale of three different cuts of Dances With Wolves too.

On the afternoon of September 19, 1978, 13-year-old Carl Bridgewater set off on his usual newspaper round through the village of Wordsley in the West Midlands. A quiet, hardworking schoolboy who loved fishing, football and Scouts, Carl had only recently started earning pocket money delivering newspapers after school. With just a handful of deliveries left to make, he arrived at an isolated farmhouse where he was due to leave a paper for the older residents. He never made it home.Carl's murder shocked the UK. Detectives launched one of the largest murder investigations the Midlands had ever seen, chasing hundreds of leads, interviewing members of the criminal underworld, searching rivers for the murder weapon and offering substantial rewards for information. What followed appeared to be a major breakthrough, but the investigation would eventually become one of the most controversial in British criminal justice history.In this episode of British Murders with Stuart Blues, we examine the unsolved murder of Carl Bridgewater. We explore Carl's life and the close-knit family he left behind, the events of his final paper round, the huge police investigation that followed, the convictions of the so-called Bridgewater Four, and the extraordinary legal battle that exposed a shocking miscarriage of justice. We also look at the theories that continue to surround the case and ask the question that has remained unanswered for nearly 50 years: who really killed Carl Bridgewater?If you know something about what happened at Yew Tree Farm all those years ago, no matter how small or insignificant it might seem, it's never too late to come forward. You can contact Staffordshire Police by calling 101 or pass information anonymously through Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.Exclusive content:Patreon - Ad Free, Early Access, Exclusive EpisodesFollow the show:British Murders with Stuart BluesDisclaimer:The case discussed in this podcast episode is real and represents the worst day in many people's lives.

In August 2018, Raneem Uday and her mother Khaula Saleem were murdered in the West Midlands despite multiple 999 calls made that night. The system failed them — not through a single act of negligence, but through structural gaps in how those calls were handled and risk was assessed.What followed is a study in what grief becomes when it meets determination. Raneem's aunt, Nour Norris, campaigned for what is now Raneem's Law — a programme embedding domestic abuse specialists directly inside 999 control rooms, in real time. Not on a phone line. Not available for consultation. In the room.Phase one launched across five police forces. This week, the government announced phase two: 12 additional forces, bringing the total to 17 of 43, with a full rollout across England and Wales committed by 2029. Early data shows increased handler confidence, earlier identification of high-risk cases, and faster safeguarding deployment.This episode also covers the government's broader Violence Against Women and Girls strategy — over £1 billion over three years, targeting a halving of VAWG within a decade — and what it will take for that target to hold across political cycles, funding changes, and cultural shifts.Helpline signposting for show notes: National Domestic Abuse Helpline (Refuge): 0808 2000 247 — free, confidential, 24/7 Men's Advice Line: 0808 801 0327 Karma Nirvana (honour-based abuse/forced marriage): 0800 599 9247 Galop (LGBT+): galop.org.ukWelcome to The Marvyn Harrison Podcast — a story-driven conversation exploring identity, fatherhood, masculinity, relationships, culture, politics, sport, and modern life.In each episode, Marvyn Harrison sits down with leading thinkers, creatives, athletes, policymakers, and cultural voices to unpack the defining moments that shaped them.

UK Home Sales Slide 10.4% in June as Every Region Falls Behind 2025 Week 24 has delivered a noticeably softer picture for the UK property market. Across the first three full weeks of June 2026, 75k UK homes were sold subject to contract, down 10.39% on the same period in 2025. That represents 7.8k fewer sales agreed than the 82.8k recorded during the first three full weeks of June last year. With every UK region reporting a decline (full breakdown of the regions below), it would be wrong to pretend that the market has not become more challenging. Yet the comparison needs context. The first 3 weeks of June in 2024, 77.8k homes went sold STC, down by a more modest 2.8k sales, or just 3.8%. Also, when compared with 2023, the picture is stronger. Just 70.2k homes were sold STC during the equivalent period that year, meaning 2026 is ahead by 4.8k sales, an increase of 6.45%. So, UK home sales have undoubtedly lost momentum compared with an unusually strong June 2025. However, this is not a market that has stopped. It is a market operating below last year's peak, broadly alongside 2024, and still comfortably ahead of 2023. Regional Breakdown below Detailed breakdown of the main stats

The latest episode of the Engineers Collective is out now: listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, your usual platform or via the player below. This month's guest is Ben Brittain, director of public affairs at the Association for Consultancy and Engineering (ACE). He told NCE news editor Lee Kenny about his role and how, when he was transportation adviser to Andy Street, the former Mayor of the West Midlands, he spent many years making the case for HS2 and advising on the Midlands Rail Hub and capital programme spending across the West Midlands. He shared his personal experience of congestion on the West Coast Main Line, which creates timetabling issues between Birmingham and Manchester. The poor connectivity between the two cities is symptomatic of the “chronic lack of investment” in Britain's railway. He also expressed concern that sequencing the Birmingham–Manchester rail line behind both HS2 Phase 1 and Northern Powerhouse Rail could delay the route into the 2040s. If that happens, he is concerned it may not happen at all and describes it as a “slow-motion cancellation”. He compared the domestic rail network with services in Europe, particularly the lack of high-speed trains in the UK. “If you do travel in Europe as well, you can see how a high-speed rail network is the norm,” he said. “There are options for high-speed rail and regional or intercity connectivity on conventional rail as well, whereas Britain is hobbled by its Victorian rail infrastructure.” He said HS2 has been an “embarrassment” and a “blemish” on the UK's international reputation. He has concerns that the increasing cost of HS2 may deter governments from embarking on other large-scale infrastructure projects in the future, but that should not be the case. “I think as a result of HS2 and its problems, we've begun to talk ourselves down as a country on our capability of delivering infrastructure,” he said. “And I don't buy that story. We deliver world-class infrastructure in this country, and we at times deliver it well.”

A move from the corporate world to craft beer is path trodden by many of this sector's brewers, business owners and beer professionals. And since taking the plunge for herself, Catherine Webber has become a well-known and much-loved figure in the fantastic fabric that is beer and hospitality. Catherine is the brand and business development manager at Attic Brew Co. Celebrating more than four years with the Birmingham brewery this year, Catherine previously worked for Mondelez International in food safety, quality and training before the world of beer would come calling… A love of cask beer, and an active presence in UK beer festivals would lead Catherine into the industry. The founder of Brum Beer Babs, she's also now an integral part of the team at Attic Brew Co. Founded by Sam Back and Oli Hurlow, the brewery is built on hard graft, creativity and community. What started in an attic in Kings Heath has grown into the largest independent brewery in the West Midlands. A brewery that is still owner-operated, still self-funded, and still grounded in the community. In this episode we speak about her role at the business and how strong core range has been a focal point of the company's ongoing growth and expansion. We discuss those early days drinking in Birmingham and how early experiences with figures such as Andy Parker and Brian Dickson gave her a sense of belonging. We also speak on Catherine's work, alongside friends and industry peers, to make the beer industry a more inclusive and diverse environment but why more needs to be done, too.

Drop us a note about the podcast. Fear has a way of shrinking your world down to whatever headline is loudest and whatever person seems most powerful. We push back on that impulse by reading Psalm 118 out loud and letting it set the order of operations: God first, refuge first, obedience first. “The Lord is for me, so I will have no fear” isn't sentimental, it's a claim about where courage actually comes from when life gets ugly and trust in people starts to wobble.From there, we move through John 12 as Jesus approaches Passover, Mary anoints His feet, and the crowds celebrate a King who rides in on a donkey. It's a vivid reminder that real worship can look wasteful to cynical eyes, that betrayal often hides behind moral talk, and that God's plan keeps moving even when leaders try to clamp down on it. We also read Proverbs on marriage and speak plainly about responsibility, satisfaction, and faithfulness inside the covenant, plus Proverbs 15 on wisdom, humility, and the kind of words God delights in.We then honor Medal of Honor recipient John Edward Butts and reflect on leadership under fire, before shifting into America's Christian heritage with a look at the stated Christian purposes behind Yale and Princeton. Whether you're here for Bible reading, Christian marriage guidance, faith and culture, or Christian education history, the thread stays consistent: no policy can replace repentance, and no institution can fix what only God can heal.Subscribe for more, share this with someone who needs steadier footing, and leave a review so more listeners can find the show.

The recent local elections have created a national battle for power within the ruling Labour Party. After suffering substantial losses to Reform UK and the Green Party, even traditionally safe Labour councils have changed hands or been thrown into “no overall control”. Across the country, Reform UK gained 1,452 seats, the Greens gained 441, while Labour lost 1,498 seats.In this episode of Streets Ahead, Laura and Adam focus on the local fallout of those elections; this is the type of politics closest to local people, and it's also the structure used to deliver sustainable and active travel schemes.Joining Laura and Adam are two guests with a deep understanding of local politics:Cllr John Morris, a Labour Councillor in Newham - Labour lost control of the Council and saw a surge in Independent candidates taking seats, leaving Newham in no overall control - but with a pro-car Labour mayor, Forhad Hussain. John was Deputy Cabinet Member for Highways and Sustainable Transport under the previous administration.Martin Price, outgoing Chair of Better Streets for Birmingham, a campaign group focused on safer streets and active travel. Birmingham is another one of those councils thrown into No Overall Control - and in the wider West Midlands, there is now an existing Labour Metro Mayor, 2x Reform Councils, 1x Labour Council and 4x No Overall Control.Links:John Morris' blog, on No Such Thing As A Safe Seat https://plaistovian.substack.com/p/there-is-no-such-thing-as-a-safeOn Birmingham's plan to become a big Low Traffic Neighbourhood: https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2021/oct/04/birmingham-to-become-a-super-sized-low-traffic-neighbourhoodAnd how that plan was inspired by the Belgian city of Ghent: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2020/jan/20/how-a-belgian-port-city-inspired-birminghams-car-free-ambitionsNewham's Living Streets local group: https://www.livingstreets.org.uk/get-involved/local-groups/newham-local-group/And our interview with the late Waseem Zaffar, formerly Cabinet Member for Transport and Environment at Birmingham City Council, who sadly died this year https://shows.acast.com/streets-ahead/episodes/episode-9-the-west-midlandsHis successor, Liz Clements, also featured on the podcast, as part of a panel discussion https://shows.acast.com/streets-ahead/episodes/live-from-london-walking-and-cycling-conferenceFor ad-free listening, behind-the-scenes and bonus content and to help support the podcast - head to (https://www.patreon.com/StreetsAheadPodcast).

In this episode, we explore what the public think and feel about crime and justice, with Dr Tom McNeil, CEO of The JABBS Foundation for Women and Girls and former Assistant Police and Crime Commissioner for the West Midlands. In this discussion Edwina and Tom look at how attitudes are shaped not just by facts, but by media coverage, political messaging, personal experience, and powerful emotions like fear, anger, and empathy. We hear about the links between trauma, poverty, abuse and women's involvement in the justice system, and why understanding these pathways matters for shaping fairer and more effective responses to crime. The conversation also touches on bias in how women are judged, the impact of sending primary carers to prison, and the limits of imprisonment as a solution. More broadly, the episode asks what it would take to have higher-quality public debate about crime – including better public education, more honest political leadership, and a media and social media environment that supports, rather than distorts, informed discussion. Dr Tom McNeil has written a book, Public Opinion on Crime: Message Framing and Deliberative Democracy for a Progressive Consensus.

The record is steeped in nostalgia, with much of it written in his childhood home of Walsall, in the West Midlands.

Iran has warned it will show "zero restraint" if its energy facilities are again hit by airstrikes, as the focus of the war shifts to key oil and gas infrastructure across the Middle East. Also: The BBC finds multiple reports of sexual abuse of children taking place in minimarts in the West Midlands. And the King goes for a walk on England's new coastal path named after him.

In late February 2026, news broke that one of Britain's most notorious child killers had been attacked inside prison. Within days, Ian Huntley, the man responsible for the murders of Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman, was dead. The man accused of carrying out the attack was another inmate, Anthony Russell, and almost instantly the internet lit up with celebration.But here's the thing. While some people online have been calling Russell a hero, that version of the story leaves out something important. Long before he ever crossed paths with Huntley behind prison walls, Russell had already left a trail of devastation across the West Midlands. In the space of just seven days, four people lost their lives after encountering him - David Williams, his mum Julie Williams, and pregnant Nichola McGregor.Exclusive content:Patreon - Ad Free, Early Access, Exclusive EpisodesFollow the show:British Murders with Stuart BluesDisclaimer:The case discussed in this podcast episode is real and represents the worst day in many people's lives.

Google démarre 2026 en fanfare avec un double coup stratégique dans l'intelligence artificielle. Partenariats, souveraineté numérique et innovations françaises sont au menu de cet Hebdo de Monde Numérique.

On a winter's night in December 1996, after a couple pulled into a lay-by in the West Midlands, the woman claimed they'd just been victims of a violent road rage attack. The man, her fiancée, lay dying from multiple stab wounds. What followed would become one of the most infamous murder cases in modern British criminal history - a case that split public opinion, dominated tabloid headlines, and introduced a narrative many were too quick to accept.For years, this case has been lazily labelled a so-called “femme fatale” murder - a phrase that risks turning a brutal killing into something stylised, even seductive. But strip away the media caricatures, the courtroom theatrics, and the mythology built around it, and what remains is the death of a young father, Lee Harvey, and a family left to grieve while the country argued over the person responsible.Buy Maureen Harvey's book Pure Evil below (not an affiliate link):Pure Evil | Amazon UKExclusive content:Patreon - Ad Free, Early Access, Exclusive EpisodesFollow the show:British Murders with Stuart BluesDisclaimer:The case discussed in this podcast episode is real and represents the worst day in many people's lives.
