July signalled Labour's first year in charge since winning the election. And despite a major majority, some good domestic bills, and securing trade deals, it's been a very mixed bag to say the least.
Our hosts discuss why, from the Good, the Bad and the Ugly in the latest episode

VOICES FROM GAZA
10 articles. 21 stories. Parents, children, workers, neighbours, survivors telling the truth about their personal experience.

On our (rather late) Pride episode, Julian sits down with Zoe Perry and @natacha.bsky.social, two Trans Writers for the Network to discuss the hotly talked about Supreme Court Ruling.
In this episode, we talk about the current state of trans Rights and what can be done to help.

In that case, not late, very on time and very intentionally so.
Why not celebrate Newcastle Pride by giving our Pride episode a listen
@natacha.bsky.social is brilliant on this. It’s an important listen.
19.07.2025 10:36 — 👍 5 🔁 3 💬 0 📌 0I strongly recommend this. No, not because my annoying voice is on it, because Stephen Kinsella, @alexhh.bsky.social and @louisehoughton.bsky.social speak much truth and cast clever things.
It’s a ‘must listen’, as they say.

A pro-trans petition set up for cisgender women to sign pushing back against the ostensibly 'feminist' narrative of anti-trans women, (who seem to have the stage to themselves these days). If I remember correctly from...
This was fun, having stepped in at short notice (I walked in to hear the talk and ended up on stage!).
Good discussion on the potential for citizen journalism as part of a healthy democracy!
A special episode in our Bylines Reports series, bringing you a debate recorded live at the Byline Festival 2025.
Join Ben Dickenson, interviewing a panel including, Alexandra Hall Hall, Stephen Kinsella, and Louise Houghton.
All asking - can citizen journalism change the world?

... the @bylinesnetworkpod.bsky.social Bylines Network Podcast, it took six years for the anti-trans women to get 39,000 signatures on a petition supporting their cause. This one hit 37,000 in six WEEKS. It'd be good to shove it over the 39k in short order. Please sign soon if you haven't already.

Most interviews with trans people are with a "gender-critical" interviewer and a "gender critical" transphobe to provide "balance" (and interrupt so we can never develop our arguments).
This podcast interview with @zoegen.bsky.social and I by @bylinesnetworkpod.bsky.social is very different...
