    Introducing Sovereignty, Data and Code: Who's in Control? from The Next Five. Follow the show: The Next Five Throughout history, statecraft was defined by borders, battlelines, and territory. In the 20th century, global power shifted to financial capital and energy reserves. Today, with the digital revolution well underway, does real authority now belong to those who control our data and code? And what does sovereignty now mean in a fast changing AI landscape? Back in the day it used to mean keeping data in a local server room. But today, frontier AI models are advancing at pace, some argue at a speed we can’t control and regulatory lines are being redrawn across the world to try and keep up. Governments and boardrooms now face a fundamental question: who’s controlling who? And what can we do about it? Joining host Tom Parker is Charlie Giancarlo, Chairman and CEO of Everpure, Sana Khareghani, Chief Strategy Officer at Era4, Professor of Practice in AI at King’s College London, AI Policy Lead for Responsible AI UK and Former Head of UK Government Office for Artificial Intelligence and Clare Schramm Fergus, Managing Director, Transaction Banking Technology Platforms, Lloyds Banking Group and Board Member of OpenUK.

    Theories of Englishness

    Theories of Englishness                                                  Black Spy Podcast number 268 Season 27, Episode 0006 Last week we examined politician Suella Braverman's  playing the race card, supposedly in support of the so-called English patriots movement, by suggesting that black people could not be English by ancestry! E.g. they are be implication second tier Englishmen and women or Brits in general. In this week's Black Spy Podcast, Black history month special, we additionally assess 18th 19th and 20th Century British ruling class theories that the British working class were an inferior and degenerate breed (race) to their sophisticated Ruling Class betters and their Middle Class imitators, at a time when up to 75% of Brits where of the perceived inferior Working Class. Carlton contends that the present day Patriots should be aware that up until relatively recently they too were perceived troublesome immigrant types, by the English gentry who. These Working Class English were said to be a problematic breed which needed to be controlled, lest they undermine the England. Unfortunately, few patriots, seemingly understand the history they laud. So, in this week's podcast we explore all of these historical points as well as black English history and the wealth of the British empire   Moreover, in addition to the above I also provide discussion on more in-depth evidence of the Black presence in Britain throughout the millennia.   So listen now to The Black Spy Podcast to be educated in a manner that the mainstream media is fails to do.

    What Every British Patriot Needs To Know

    What Every British Patriot Needs To Know Black Spy Podcast number 267 Season 27, Episode 0005 Suella Braverman, playing the race card, supports the so-called English patriots, by suggesting that Black people can not be English by ancestry! E.g. they are by implication not really English, Hence, second tier Englishmen or women.  In this week's Black Spy Podcast's - Black history month special - I pose Mrs Braverman and the so-called English Patriots the following: Firstly, as regards being English, why is Braverman only mentioning that people of colour can't be English. So conversely, is she suggesting that if you are not of colour, questioning one's Englishness would be incongruous. Meaning, Englishness is colour coded.   Secondly if Braverman has any understanding of English history, she would know that a sizable number of black people lived in what is now England 300 years prior to the arrival of the Germanic English progenitors - the Angles & Saxons! in ca 490 AD. So, why would Braverman suggest this when the scientific reconstruction of Britain's oldest skeletal inhabitant -  Cheddar Man – shows he had dark skin, dark hair, and blue eyes. An analysis based on DNA extracted from his 10,000-year-old skeleton. What the DNA Shows ·        Scientists from the Natural History Museum and University College London extracted DNA from the Cheddar Man skeleton found in Somerset, England.   ·        Genetic markers showed he possessed the combination of dark skin, dark curly hair, and pale or blue eyes.   ·        He belonged to a group of early Western Hunter-Gatherers who lived across Europe after the Ice Age.   Moreover, in addition to the above I also provide more in-depth evidence of the Black presence in Britain throughout our history.   So listen now to The Black Spy Podcast to be educated in a manner that the mainstream media is failing to do.  If you wish to discuss this episode or any other with Carlton, or other regular members of the Black Spy Podcast team, feel free to do so.

    Understanding British Secret Intelligence with Dr. M Hanif Majothi (Part 3)

    Understanding British Secret Intelligence with Dr. M Hanif Majothi (Part 3)      Black Spy Podcast number 266 Season 27, Episode 0004   THE BLACK SPY PODCAST — SPECIAL THREE-PART SERIES Who really created Britain's secret intelligence system? In this compelling three-part series, Carlton King is joined by Dr. Mohamed Hanif Majothi to examine the origins of one of the least understood — yet most important — institutions in British national security: Metropolitan Police Special Branch. The conventional history places its creation in 1883. Dr. Majothi challenges that accepted date, arguing that 1887, when funding was provided for the organisation, is the more meaningful starting point. But the discussion goes much further than dates. Carlton and Dr. Majothi trace the extraordinary chain of development from Special Branch to MI5, MI6 and ultimately the wider intelligence architecture incorporating military intelligence and GCHQ — examining how these organisations evolved, overlapped and operated alongside one another. And there is a crucial question at the heart of the series: Why is the police role in British secret intelligence so rarely acknowledged today? Special Branch was not simply another police department. For generations, it sat at the intersection of policing, intelligence, counter-subversion, terrorism and national security, investigating and monitoring organisations and individuals considered threats to the British state. From the late 19th century, through the First World War and beyond, Carlton and Dr. Majothi explore how those early intelligence practices helped shape the organisations that followed — and how Special Branch personnel and expertise contributed to the development of Britain's emerging intelligence services. The story also reaches far beyond Britain. At the height of the British Empire, Britain possessed an extraordinary global reach, giving its intelligence and security organisations an international dimension unlike almost any other system of the period. The series considers how the British model developed — and how it differed from systems emerging in countries such as France and, later, the United States. Finally, the discussion brings the story into the 21st century, examining what happened when Metropolitan Police Special Branch disappeared in 2006 and only some of its functions were poorly absorbed into the modern Counter Terrorism Command, albeit this later history will be looked more closely in future episodes. Was something more than a name changed? Has the policing contribution to Britain's secret intelligence history effectively disappeared from public consciousness? And what does that mean for the way we understand Britain's national security machine today? So listen now to The Black Spy Podcast to be educated in a manner that the mainstream media is failing to do so.
