Stand Up Speak Out UK

The question this week is what is just?

Three stories as usual

Post office, another delay so where is this emergency legislation that Sunak was saying was going to happen?

Rwanda bill has passed it's third reading. Now it must go to to the house of Lords.

Another refusal to build accomodation for the homeless. Would you let a hostel be built in your road?

I have known David for many years , you will hear how we met and I will say he is multi talented as he is a musician as well. Not all people in the industry are multi talented , a majority stick to one skill such as writing, acting or directing.
Last summer David was living on the streets, now he is studying film making at Falmouth . In this interview he is candid about his journey.

The word this week is reality check.

How many people need this?

The bank chief  who says it is easy to buy a house. How? He says you should save?

Alan Bates vs The Post office. This has been going on for 25 years. Who is to blame the management at the Post Office or Fuhitsu who supplied the software? Listen to the facts and decide.

Mr Sunak is coming to the rescue , he states emergency laws to help the people whop were affected by the story above. Why is he doing this?

My guest this week is Tim Wood, he is passionate about homeless people and their right to vote.  He knows many things that I was not aware of.
In our discussion he even spoke about the need for photo id and how that can be overcome.
This recording was made last year and he speaks of the mayor elections but we will be having the general election  so I feel this is a topic to start our year on.

This week's word is transparency.

This is one of the things that the Prime Minister promised when he took office.

I believe there are still points that we are not being told.

I have to deal with press offices and just asking for a document that I was informed by the press office themselves I am still waiting 3 weeks now.

Mr Cleverly , the Home Secretary has stated the government have met their promise to meet the migrant figures of last year. They did by giving three quarters amnesty, the remaining quarter are still here. They do not tell you that.

Mr Sunak has stated the General Election will be held in the last half of the year, this is the person who stated the flights to Rwanda will be in the spring. One problem to that he has no aircraft.

Yes this week's guest is me, the founder and presenter of this podcast.
I could of taken the easy way and let the chattering monkey loose and just  talked about what I want people to hear ,  but one I love a challenge and before this I only ever been interviewed once when I was on a tour with a theatre company.
I asked Neil Salmons to be my interrogator ( I will admit I was nervous ) and he did an amazing job. I now realise what makes me what I am.
So if you want  to hear the real Ian Kalman, listen, one or two things might surprise you.
If you feel you have a story to  share don't hesitate to contact me, one thing I wish to say ,by contacting me does not mean you must appear.At any time you can say you do not want to continue.

This week I am taking 2 words Justice and Truth.
I think they should go hand in hand but do they.

1/ Lord Bethel has produced a message that proves the government did not know of Lady Mone's business dealing, it was sent in 2020. One problem with this , he has signed a document for the Covid Inquiry saying that he could not access any messages before 2021. 
2/ Mr Sunak is proving he is in the same mould as Boris, he is now set on getting rid of the immigrants. Now at the last election it was all about Brexit next one will be all about the immigrants. Will this help the country?
3/ The rise of section 21 eviction is no joke. In their manifesto they were going to scrub it, it was to be part of the rent reform bill. They took it out saying the courts have to change. This an excuse, they could of done it but look what they did with Rwanda, the courts said Rwanda was unsafe , our government bought a bill out that states Rwanda is safe.

It's funny how things change, I was planning to talk to Nicola about why she does what why she does what she does? Then she started talking about peer mentoring, now not only do I have a qualification in peer mentoring but I was also the mentor to the internal assessor.
The question is now for you, do you need a piece of paper to be a mentor?
