This event marked official launch of the second edition of Exploring Parliament, a new book which brings together academic insights with real-world perspectives to bring parliament to life for readers. The book’s 73 authors – leading academic experts and parliamentary practitioners – offer an unrivalled insider’s guide to the UK parliament, providing an accessible yet in-depth exploration of how parliament works, its key functions, and the realities of law-making and scrutiny in the UK. 

Who are the key players in parliament? How is parliament organised and run? How is the government held to account? How are laws made? And what challenges does parliament face in the future? To explore these questions and more, we were joined by the editors of Exploring Parliament – who made opening remarks, reflecting on the book’s unique approach, and a panel of the book’s authors who discussed their chapters and insights.

This was followed by a Q&A session. Panellists included:

Professor Nicholas Allen, Professor of Politics at Royal Holloway, University of London
Dr Sean Haughey, Senior Lecturer at the University of Liverpool
Chloe Mawson, Clerk Assistant at the House of Lords
Dr Rebecca McKee, Senior Researcher at the Institute for Government
Margaret McKinnon, Director Member and Members’ Staff Services Team at the House of Commons
Professor Meg Russell, Director of the Constitution Unit at University College London (UCL)

The event was chaired by Dr Hannah White, Director and CEO of the Institute for Government. 

Introductory remarks were also delivered by the editors Professor Cristina Leston Bandeira, Dr Louise Thompson and Dr Alexandra Meakin.

We would like to thank the Study of Parliament Group for kindly supporting this event.

Rabbi Breitowitz- Laws of Kosher

These sources collectively provide a comprehensive global history of female sex work, encompassing prostitution, sex slavery, and concubinage, from antiquity to the modern era. They explore how these practices evolved across diverse cultural, legal, and economic frameworks, highlighting shifts from sacred rituals to secular professions and examining the persistent tension between female agency and patriarchal constraints. The texts document regional variations, from Ancient Mesopotamia's temple prostitution to East Asia's courtesan cultures and the modern digital sex economy, while also identifying recurring themes like economic motivation, urbanization, and changing regulatory approaches. The compilation includes a detailed timeline, key definitions, notable historical figures, and an appendix with supplementary information, all aimed at offering a nuanced understanding of this complex human phenomenon.

Today, we're diving into what the Big Beautiful Bill could mean for your taxes, your future, and your retirement plans. 

The Big Beautiful Bill | Save your Retirement with Pat Strubbe

This powerful visual piece captures the emotional and political duality at the heart of Carlos Neher's song. The image is divided into two starkly contrasting halves: the left side rendered in grayscale, symbolizing oppression, silence, and the cold rigidity of imposed norms; the right side bursts with vivid colors, embodying freedom, diversity, and emotional truth.

At the center stands a solemn figure—half in shadow, half in light—holding a glowing, heart-shaped Earth at his chest. The left side of the heart appears darkened, almost consumed by the monochrome world, while the right radiates warmth and life. This symbolizes the internal and societal battle between conformity and authenticity, between fear and love.

The imagery of barren trees and bleak skies transitions into vibrant hues and collective joy, representing the transformative power of inclusion and empathy. The name "Carlos Neher" grounds the piece at the bottom, while the title boldly proclaims the message above.

This cover is more than an image—it's a manifesto in color and shadow, challenging the very foundations of so-called democratic norms that exclude, erase, and restrict.

Democracy Does Not Allow Laws of Customs

Halachos of Fertility interventions with R' Breitowitz

In Parshat VaEtchanan, the Torah repeats the mitzvot of Shabbat and honoring parents—commandments that were already given earlier at Marah. There, the Jews received a foretaste of Torah law, specifically those that require effort and faith: chok and mishpat. These include Shabbat, honoring parents, the Noachide laws, and the red heifer. Why were these given early? Because they represent the bitterness of life’s tests. Hashem gave them before the Ten Commandments to show that the path to revelation and redemption requires navigating bitterness with emunah. Shabbat Nachamu and Tu B’Av echo this theme: after bitterness comes consolation, and with it, the joy and light that only emunah can uncover.

Parshat VaEtchanan - The Laws and Statues of Marah

Today on American Indian Airwaves (AIA), listeners will hear our special guest discuss the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), its history and January 2024 modifications along with its implications for Native Americans. In addition, our guest will provide an in-depth analysis about the increased aqua or ocean mining by non-renewable extractive industry companies for rare minerals - as part of the Green Economy – potentially jeopardizing, threatening, and/or destroying Native American sacred sites currently under the ocean. Our guest addresses what this situation means for Native American sacred sites off the coastal shorelines of Indigenous people’s traditional territories?  Are there protections in place for these sacred sites? What happens when private companies encounter these sacred sites, and Native American ancestors, sacred items, and forms of cultural patrimony? What roles does NAGPRA play in these situations or does it? 

The Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act was enacted by the U.S. Congress in 1990 with the intended purposes to protect and return of Native American ancestors, funerary objects, sacred objects, and objects of cultural patrimony. By enacting NAGPRA, Congress recognized that Native American ancestors "must at all times be treated with dignity and respect." Congress also acknowledged that Native American ancestors and other cultural items removed from Federal or tribal lands belong to the lineal descendants, Native American nations, and Native Hawaiian organizations.

Welcome to the brokeMans Podcast where the journey is real and spoken about. Where community shares that journey to show everyone they are not alone in this life. Penny for your thoughts lets talk about it.

American Indian Airwaves (AIA), an Indigenous public affairs radio porgram and, perhaps, the longest running Native American radio program within both Indigenous and the United States broadcast communication histories. Also, AIA broadcast weekly every Thursday from 7pm to 8pm (PCT) on KPFK FM 90.7 Los Angeles (http://www.kpfk.org).  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/aiacr


American Indian Airwaves is produced in Burntswamp Studios and started broadcasting on March 1st, 1973 on KPFK in order to give Indigenous peoples and their respective First Nations a voice about the continuous struggles against Settler Colonialism and imperialism by the occupying and settler societies often referred to as the United States, Canada, Mexico, and the Latin and South America countries located therein.

American Indian Airwaves operates as an all-volunteer collective with no corporate sponsorship and no underwriters.

I think that at this stage of my life I can afford to write, and make music the way my heart wants to express itself, without waiting for applause, because I no longer care about applause, I have long passed that phase... now it only matters to write and sing the truths of my heart, which obviously may not be the truths of your heart, but they are mine!

Hi, I'm J.J. Styles, and this is my 1st soundcloud account. I have 2 other accounts at http://soundcloud.com/jjstyles0010 & http://soundcloud.com/jjstyles0011  I feel just fine about admitting that most of these recordings are lo-fi (low fidelity) recordings, that are not perfect. But I am proud to admit that I am playing all the instruments that are on these tracks, and singing as well. I have been a performing music artist for over half of my life now. I plan on re-recording all these tracks, and subscribing to a SoundCloud Pro account, once I start&finish taking a sound engineering class (autumn 2014). So look forward to hi-fi recordings in 2015! In the meantime, I hope you can please enjoy this work I have done.
