More TV debates? Be careful what you wish for.

by Samuel Fawcett

With only five weeks left until the General Election, it seems almost certain that we will not see any television debates. Theresa May ruled out an appearance at the start of the campaign, and, since then, Jeremy Corbyn has insisted he will only appear if the Prime Minister deigns to as well. May has been […]

Memento mori: Escaping death

by Samuel Fawcett

‘I have always been terrified of death, and no philosopher or holy man has been able to convince me otherwise.’ Such are the words of the celebrated novelist Howard Jacobson. From the moment we conceive of mortality, we are doomed to know that, whatever we think lies beyond, we will never be able to know […]

‘Being able to fix people’s problems is a real buzz – it’s what I want to do anyway’ – an interview with Daisy Benson

by Samuel Fawcett

It is fair to say that 2015 wasn’t the best year for the Liberal Democrats: the General Election saw them lose all but eight of their seats, down from a total of 57 won at the height of Cleggmania. They lost many of their big names, including Vince Cable, Simon Hughes and Lynne Featherstone, and […]

‘It was definitely the best job in the world’ – An interview with Sally Feldman, former Editor of Woman’s Hour

by Samuel Fawcett

Sally Feldman has had something of a varied life, from starting her career in women’s and teenage magazines to becoming a board member of the Rationalist Association and contributor to its New Humanist magazine, Feldman has always had her finger on the pulse when it comes to media. Out of all her roles, though, she is […]

Why Bernie Sanders wouldn’t have won

by Samuel Fawcett

As the dust settles after one of the most extraordinary elections in American history, the hot takes as to why things happened as they did have only just begun. Many will try and reduce the result to ‘economic anxiety’ motivating white working-class voters. Others will blame right-wing media outlets for consistently fanning the flames of […]

‘Three person’ baby born

by Samuel Fawcett

A baby containing the genetic material of three parents has been born through the use of groundbreaking new technology. The baby was born in Mexico, and the procedure carried out by a US team, who chose the central American country as it has no laws that prohibit the procedure. The technology used is known as […]

‘You can’t do good if you don’t have the power to do good’: An interview with Kate Green MP

by Samuel Fawcett

Kate Green has been the Member of Parliament for Stretford and Urmston in Greater Manchester since 2010. Having impressed colleagues, she was promoted to Shadow Minister for Work and Pensions under Ed Miliband, and Shadow Minister for Women and Equalities under Corbyn. On 27 June, she became one of the 20 members of the Shadow Cabinet […]

An interview with Larry Sanders

by Samuel Fawcett

(Note: This interview was conducted before Hillary Clinton secured enough delegates to win the Democratic nomination) While he may be better known as the elder brother of Bernie, Larry Sanders is no stranger to political activism himself. Growing up in Brooklyn with parents who were, in his words, archetypal of the post-war, New York Jewish […]

God save our gracious Queen?

by Samuel Fawcett

If 19-year-old me could have seen myself writing this piece, he would have been appalled. I used to be a member of Republic – the campaign to abolish the monarchy – described myself as a radical left-winger, and believed the royal family were a relic of a past defined by absolute power, class snobbery and […]
