    Five Suicide Attempts, Life After Football and Why I Now Know I’m Well – Clarke Carlisle

    This week, Alastair speaks with former professional footballer Clarke Carlisle. Today, as he tells Alastair, Clarke feels well. But after years of undiagnosed depression during a long Premier League career, he tried to take his own life many times, including stepping out in front of a lorry Alastair and Clarke disagree on whether happiness is a state of being or a transient emotion. They also differ on the AA’s 12 steps and debate the role of labelling in mental health. Clarke is now the chair of the mental health charity Mind, where he is using his own experience to push for better support for others. Some elements of this episode reference suicide attempts and mental illness, which some listeners may find distressing. For support, Samaritans offers a free 24-hour helpline.

    Can the Democrats Capitalise on Trump's Midterm Disaster?

    Why did Trump concede defeat so quickly and pledge to work with Democrats, and what does this mean for the final two years of his presidency, including his influence on the world stage? Was this a cost of living election defeat for Trump more than an outpouring of love for the Democrats, and will MAGA’s ‘America First’ worldview persist anyway? After the most highly funded election in American history, could there finally be bipartisan support for tackling the influence of extreme wealth and corruption in US politics?

    David Blunkett on Blindness, Adversity and Why Politicians Give Up Too Easily

    To hear the full episode, and the whole series, sign up at therestispolitics.com This week, Alastair sits down with someone who – in his opinion – is the most persevilient person in politics, Lord David Blunkett. Blind since birth, he lost his father at the age of 12 and grew up in a very poor household.  Despite this, he went on to become leader of Sheffield Council at 33, then MP for Sheffield Brightside and Hillsborough, and a key architect of New Labour. You’ll hear how differently he experiences the world, not least in Westminster, why he thinks politics has before too ephemeral and why he never wants to be pitied.   Instagram: @restispolitics Twitter: @restispolitics Email: therestispolitics@goalhanger.com __________ Social Producer: Celine Charles Video Editor: Gabriela Gibbs  Producer: India Dunkley Assistant producer: Evie Townend Executive Producer: Bella Soames  Editorial Director: Emily Kent Smith Learn more about your ad choices.

    Is Burnham’s Budget Too Safe and How Brazil Defied Trump

    With the UK’s new Chancellor, John Healey, announcing his first budget and Kemi Badenoch asking him, “is that it?”, how will the public judge his plans? With Lula making an historic return to Brazil’s presidency, was it the strength of his campaign or Bolsonaro Jr’s electoral gaffes in the leadership race that proved decisive? How did Aleksandar Vučić’s gamble on an early election backfire so spectacularly, and what does his shock defeat to a leaderless student movement tell us about just how unpredictable modern politics has become?
