Author: Chris Bryant
Narrator: Chris Bryant

From leading MP Chris Bryant, the inside story of misconduct in parliament – and how we can help solve it. The extraordinary turmoil we have seen in British politics in the last few years has set records. We have had the fastest turnover of ministers in our history and more MPs suspended from the House than ever. Rules have been flouted repeatedly, sometimes in plain sight. The government seems unable to escape the brush of sleaze. And just when we think it’s all going to calm down a bit, another scandal breaks. As Chair of the Committees on Standards and Privileges, Chris Bryant has had a front-row seat for the battle over standards in parliament.

Author: Deirdre N. McCloskey
Narrator: Marguerite Gavin

The big economic story of our times is not the Great Recession. It is how China and India began to embrace neoliberal ideas of economics and attributed a sense of dignity and liberty to the bourgeoisie they had denied for so long. The result was an explosion in economic growth and proof that economic change depends less on foreign trade, investment, or material causes and a whole lot more on ideas and what people believe.

Author: Graham Smith
Narrator: Sam Swann

It’s wrong in principle and it doesn’t work in practice. (And no, it’s not good for tourism.) But it doesn’t have to be this way. They say Britain should be proud to have the mother of parliaments, a shining beacon of democracy and an example to other nations. But there’s an elephant in the room. At the heart of power is a single family. They weren’t elected but they live off the public purse. They aren’t accountable to anyone, and yet between them they are privy to more government secrets than many cabinet ministers. Divinely appointed using a special hat, the head of the family is your superior, you his subject. Apparently he is guardian of our constitution – but we’re also told he wouldn’t dream of interfering in politics. If you accept the monarchy, you must accept the moral compromise that comes with it, from its erosion of the principle of equality to the secret interference in our laws. But the good news is that we don’t have to accept it. True democracy is within our reach.

Author: Bruce Hood
Narrator: Bruce Hood

The Self Illusion provides a fascinating examination of how the latest science shows that our individual concept of a self is in fact an illusion. Most of us believe that we possess a self – an internal individual who resides inside our bodies, making decisions, authoring actions and possessing free will. The feeling that a single, unified, enduring self inhabits the body is compelling and inescapable. But that sovereignty of the self is increasingly under threat from science as our understanding of the brain advances.
