didnt see any bird but whatever it was it scared her and she wants to be with her daddy thats all im saying cant you come home one day early all right fine i love you too anything no shell come matter of time i hope you realize theres no evidence whatsoever that this mystery woman of yours has even committed a crime though her wardrobe comes close six prostitutes were seen with her at dirty dames never to be seen again not only might she be a female serial killer rare in itself but twice police raided that club to arrest her and twice they came up emptyhanded shes on tape going in the exits are covered shes nowhere to be found what happens to her does she disappear turn invisible i hope we catch her so she can tell us before i have to spend another night here i dont know about you but i find this all very depressing this roundtheclock exposure to the seamy underbelly its the job scully vigilance in the face of privation the sheer will it takes to sit in this crappy room spying on the dregs of society until our suspect surfaces there is something ennobling in that mulder now all right i gotta go mulder you wanted to see me sir yeah sit down a woman named martha crittendon disappeared from her home in vermont local police havent turned up any sign of her l hope you may be able to lm already on a case youre on a stakeout im confident agent scully can continue in your absence why what did i do there may be aspects to this that speak to your strengths as an investigator specifically ravens what do you know aboutem their mythological or paranormal significance well the raven is considered a very powerful symbol in certain norse celtic and native american cultures mostly a negative one indians view it as a deceiving spirit christianity associates it with evil and then of course theres poesravenandnevermoreand all that stuff crittendons sevenyearold daughter claimed she was attacked by a raven earlier the day her mother disappeared later she heard one inside the house before she discovered her mother was missing no really what did i do its the only lead that hasnt been explored i wanna know if it has a bearing on the case i assume the fact that crittendons father is a federal judge also has a little bearing on this case its been made clear to me that locating her is my top priority im making it yours as well agent mulder phil adderly welcome to bethany i appreciate the help sure i dont know how much help im gonna be i know you already have a lot of good investigators on the case want to take a quick look around tell me about martha crittendon she and my wife ellen are best friends marthas much admired here shes devoted to her family active in the community i mean needless to say the whole town is very concerned whats your theory on what happened lm hoping youll tell me theres no ransom note no prints or blood evidence husband was out of town ln miami at a conference lt checks out howard didnt have anything to do with this what do you know about a raven yeah michelle their little girl was saying something about that you got me poor kid you wanna talk to her not necessary you sure marthas last name isnt stewart tell me about it last year this place made the cover of new england home how many talons would you say a raven had never mind you know what was hanging here it was a mirror lt was found broken you had no other signs of struggle not a one does that mean something to you howard this is agent mulder with the fbi sir i hope we can help i appreciate your coming im wondering now if this isntjust a waste of your time how so with all the police coming and going this place was a wreck i was straightening up and i found something birthcontrol pills i think martha was having an affair after michelle we decided not to have more children i had a vasectomy theyre in marthas name she ordered them off the internet because i guess small towns talk of course then i started looking all around and i found this in the pocket of her favorite coat i dont know what this goes to or what it means if anything but the pills do you have any idea who your wife may have been seeing whoever he is martha may be with him it explains why we havent found her she doesnt wanna be found cute kid jenny you scared me you do those up yourself yeah martha and you were good friends you must be pretty upset of course im sure we all are maybe youd like some of these to put up on your side of townmy side of town yeah sure i didnt mean that the way it mightve sounded no itjust naturally comes out that way when you think youre better than everyone you and martha are two peas in a pod jenny i dont think im better than anyone you and me got more in common than you know yeah right right thanks whoever martha was seeing covered their tracks phone records show nothing you think this person took her harmed her i wouldnt rule it out but i doubt it a raven has four talons that matches the scratches on marthas mantel youre not saying a ravens the reason marthas gone missing no not a raven itself but in folklore ravens are companions to evil evil spirits witches warlocks that kind of thing i appreciate the different tack youre taking on this investigation but this whole bird thing and youre basing this on the word of a sevenyearold girl well there was also a broken mirror in marthas house mirrors are considered items of enchantment a broken one means something im not sure what but it means something hey sweet girl this is my daughter katie my wife ellen were so glad youre here our house is your house we have a spare guest room all set up no arguments were so grateful that youre here to help find martha really its the least we can do ok the bureau can reimburse you for room and board no dont be silly no this is just a typical meal around here supper is usually the only time we see each other and i like to make it special excuse me thanks mulder mulder please tell me i can go home hey scully hows the stakeout the furnace broke i can just about see my breath in here im sorry to hear that and ive witnessed a couple of hundred things id like to erase from my brain but as of yet no mystery woman well shell come its just a matter of time shell show up im sure not before i die of malnutrition tough it out whatever doesnt kill you makes you stronger right no capers thank you lm sorry what l said what a crazy caper ill talk to you later and keep warm bye did i hear you say stakeout whats the case its family time dont make our guest talk shop at the dinner table fair enough cheers cheers whats the matter sweetheart i thought that was your favorite it tastes different when mommy makes it yeah i know how about we go get hamburgers would you like that instead its back everythings all right ill be right back ok what do you make of these claw marks one time i saw the victim of a bear attack look somethinlike that only bears dont plant their kill in the rose garden l was gonna say bodys been around here for a while probably since she went missing what about your ravens howard said somethinabout ravens yeah feedingon her see you ok lm not arresting howard i dont care how it looks body buried in his own yard he didnt do this l agree poor guy has suffered enough already what are you doing you shouldnt be here what my god martha no ellen honey i am so sorry lt cant be lts ok its ok the thing that did that to her i think i saw it today i saw its reflection it had a face out of a nightmare these long claws the kind that could the window shattered i dont know how when i turned around it was gone i dont know what it was i didnt think it was real but then when i saw marthas face honey youve been through a lot you dont believe me i do you said the car window shattered after you saw the reflection theres a broken mirror in marthas house i dont think thats a coincidence but what could it mean mirrors are considered doorways in the victorian era they built mirrored rooms called psychomantiums where they thought they could summon spirits from the spirit world denizens from the spirit world were brought into this world denizens of the spirit world you asked about the raven the raven is a carrion bird attracted to death and decay what if this entity that you saw is somehow a personification of that what if this creature was brought forth to attack martha then the question becomes who summoned it forth ellen do you know if martha had any enemies can you think of anyone at all who would have wished her harm l sure as hell had nothing to do with it theyre just routine questions answerem and well be outta here we understand there was no love lost between you and martha and where do you understand that from mrs sheriff right lts not exactly a town secret right like there arent enough of those already queen martha and her perfect little easteregg hunts shes so above the rest of us except i heard she was stepping out on her husband knockinboots with whoknowswho im not happy shes dead and all but you need to look into that lets stay on the subject of you on your police record for instance you dont suffer people that dont give you respect the hairsalon owner you assaulted that was forever ago and i paid for that and i had nothing to do with martha where were you the night she disappeared at home all night i gotta get back to work i dont know about you but i believe her she didnt do it i just dont get that vibe fair enough but why did she lie about her alibi i got that vibe pretty clear excuse me lll be in the car mulder when you find me dead my desiccated corpse propped up staring lifelessly through the telescope at drunken frat boys peeing and vomiting into the gutter just know that my last thoughts were of you and how id like to kill you lm sorry who is this lts a freak show mulder its a nonstop parade of every single lowlife imaginable the view may not be too different here its dressed up nicer but under the surface its the same seamy underbelly its not the same trust me this case is more interesting than i thought i could use your help are you talking about a reprieve for me theres a murder victim that id like you to autopsy for me what do you think scully you still there hello that van is back what whatd you say nothin ill talk to you later ok katie get away from her its ok come on be quiet now be

brought on by stress ive been through the entire house and i saw no indication that anyone else was here what about the two broken mirrors what about them you think broken mirrors have a deeper meaning but you cant tell me what it is and in this case im thinking ellen brokeem herself what number six lts a match to the one howard crittendon found in his wifes coat pocket what would this be doing here l dont know ellen do you recognize this key i was sweeping the floor and it got caught up in the sweeper i never saw it before today you found it before you were attacked right before right

the widely understood definition of that term the right womanll come along and change all that dont miss out on home and family mr mulder with all the terrible things you must see in your work it could be a refuge for you hi honey sorry im late paperwork morning agent mulder morning im gonna go check on katie you sleep well l only woke up once when you went out ill try to be quieter next time weve got a deputy out were shorthanded i had to take some calls all night yeah we were busy i spoke to the coroner this morning the autopsy shows that martha was four weeks pregnant when she died despite her birthcontrol pills probably didnt even know it any idea who the father might be i mean howards vasectomy pretty much puts him out of the running any inkling who it might be just say whats

didnt do this i swear to you anyway what about the broken mirrors and the raven you said it was an entity that did this dont you still believe that i said it was an entity summoned by somebody else

burn the clothes that im wearing and then sleep until late spring you solved the xfile yes except its not an xfile what you didnt catch our blonde mystery serial killer we caught her but she isnt a serial killer nor is she a blonde and she isnt even a she what are you talkinabout these six missing prostitutes arent dead they are alive and well in a halfway house set up by this mystery blonde who happens to go by the name of mark scott eggbert and mr eggbert wishes to acquaint lost souls with the teachings of christ thats his hook i guess he dresses up like a fellow prostitute to make the girls feel at ease but this vanishing act is no more paranormal than a change of wardrobe mulder he goes into a place like a woman and he comes out as a man right under our noses exactly a wolf in sheeps clothing or in this case a sheep in wolfs clothing good work scully ill call you back later ellen ellen its agent mulder please go away ellen jenny uphouse is dead your husband is in custody suspected of murdering her only i dont think he did it do you ellen you went out this morning after breakfast whered you go lts not me lt cant be l think it is ellen i think you have a whole other side that youre afraid to face that would explain all the broken mirrors you dont wanna see yourself for what you really are you have to come out of there then what my marriage my life everything i thought i had is nothing its all lies i wish youd never come here ellen you need to open this door you wanna see her does she wanna see me doctors say shes got some kind of dissociative disorder a split personality that doesnt explain what happened lts as close as science can come i think the basic idea is right in some multiple personality disorders an alternate personality displays traits that the host doesnt have like nearsightedness or high blood pressure or even diabetes i think in ellens case the changes were just a lot more extreme like jekyll and hyde she wanted so much from her life with you a perfect life i think at some point she found out you were cheating with jenny and martha i dont know when but at some point she did and like you said i think she had to rationalize that she bottled up her anger swallowed it and it had to come out some way i think she did what she did to protect her family visiontext subtitles karin baker us english arachnophobia arachnophobia is

bailout a bailout is when financial help is given to a corporation or country which is close to failure or bankruptcy we stayed in that house till i were eight year old and then we were went on to where i lived the rest of my time and that would have been from nineteen twenty to oh a couple of year ago what was it like on wyre then was it very different oh entirely different from now the pier and the hydro and the telephone made a big difference to it but erm other eighteen inches or two foot to a jetty to land it all the feeding stuff and there were a pile of feeding stuff then for the hens were all and cattle were fed and all the feeding stuff had to be imported and sometimes it landed in a gay sorry mess and it really wouldnt there just a couple of feet a couple of stones high just the height of the jetty and weve had many a soaking landing the stuff steamer sometimes anchored off and sometimes it didnt anchor there was too much wind i guess the anchor didnt hold too well when it was a rough day how often did you get the steamer oh it varied from time to time in the winter time theyd come out on a monday morning and came back on tuesday from kirkwall and then the summer time they come out on a monday morning and gone back at on monday night that was the the first one i can remember the shipping company supplied the boat for bringing the goods ashore theres usually a old salmon coble theyd pick up from down the coast somewhere very flat on the bottom and turned up to the bow and thats what the salmon fishers used in the in the rivers for pulling their nets in and fishing salmon on the why choose one of the was it cos they were suitable or cheaper well they were suitable and cheaper they were too blooming cheap for the they were usually condemned by the time we got them they lashed alongside and they lowered the stuff right onto the onto the coble to start with we rowed it ashore with a couple or oars or maybe four oars and took off the cattle and that the same way just or they put a sling round them or made a canvass and two supports on the side of it and the sling to be too hard on the cattles sides like a sort of hammock and er put that on and tied them back and front and up on them tied them to the sides of the coble and and usually towed it with another rowing boat it was all done by oars then were the cattle and all oh they were not too bad for that we never had any real disaster just had one jumped over the side from us once and swamp ashore again and we caught it on the on the land again and put it away im having to swim them off the steamer and tow them in a dinghy to get our put the slings on them before we left the beach and just pushed them into the water and towed them off and hook the hook the into the sling and up them to give them a good wash before they went to kirkwall its funny how an animal like a cow or a horse would swim you would think it would be well they can they can swim like fish for i remember us doing a flipping er a family came to wyre once and we were on the same old coble we were er doing the flipping and we thought we had nothing to do but take the rope off their heads and push them over the side of the coble onto the side of the small jetty and instead of going up the jetty they went down and they were going to go right back to rousay again and another instance of that was well this was not so long ago when we had a loan of a barge from just a mini landing craft sort of thing where the front of it folded down so i flipped some cattle from the farm of and right between egilsay and rousay just a short distance oh maybe a quarter of a miles or thereby and oh did the shipping perfectly well and and went home and by the time i got home the message had arrived back before me that the there were two old cattle among the younger ones that the fellow had put there just to feed up and the last we saw of them was going up over the island and that was okay we thought everything was okay so the message was that the two old cattle was back in rousay they swam that strong current you know and landed back on rousay again just imagine it youd think it would be totally alien for them to go in the water like that i know but they will do it were the cattle in rousay and wyre and egilsay were they used to that kind of thing oh no really no well you see egilsay and rousay had piers that they could land at and they were never used to be in the water but ive seen in my time coble to ship cattle with to swim them off at it was on a nice day it was all right i suppose when they got in the water they enjoyed the dip what about other animals sheep can be very sort of skittish and excitable oh oh oh yes theres sometimes theres a job to handle them ive seen them taken to the sea too and er have a job to round them up and the horses well they theyre the worst to ship some were really bad and they had to be severely tied some use to keep pigs too but not very many in wyre we had a job to handle them the screams on them more than enough what happened in in the depth of winter when it was really bad and stormy as far as supplies and things went oh it could be stormy right enough but well the steamer might call at rousay at that time and they would land the goods in rousay the perishables for wyre and when the weather abated we would get it from there it was just about a half a mile of water to cross what happened with perishables because you said there was no power no electricity no fridges no freezers nothing nothing no ive seen the bread coming out on a monday morning warm and landed at from the big houses and that was before the days of the cooling of the bread they have coolers now to take the steam away from them and the boxes would even be warm when they landed at wyre down in the hold of the steamer but the bread soon turned green in this time of year and there was quite a lot of penicillin about hence did folks still have girdles then or was that going out oh yes i guess theyd girdles oh i suppose when the hens failed the girdles were possibly thrown out but the hens when was the hurricane there about finished them about at their height about the hurricane time and was it fifty one i think what was it like oh terrible i thought i would never seen the next day the stacks were just simply not there it just lifted the roofing from the base of the stack and hen houses just scattered all over the place just hens laying here there and everywhere i remember me gathering the hens up that night late oh about ten or eleven oclock at night and we had our own power you see by that time just our own lighting plant and the hens would even come out and meet you in the dark they knew knew you were coming and theyd come along cattle there just contented as could be and then they got their supper and wed give them a wee while of light still to eat their supper and the first was a twelve volt but then we came to a hundred and ten so i just strung it down along the two top wires of the fence and they were live and oh there were about six or nine hen houses attached to the fence with those wires for electricity but the next morning there was nothing left on this night you said youd gone up to feed them yes oh well i gave them and went home and went to bed and the wind got up in the night and pretty strong and we had a hut a twenty by twenty five foot fourteen eighteen war hut in the middle of a square and there was a shop and a storeroom besides and there was nothing left but the base of that whole thing just went like a matchbox and i got up and i was gonna tie her up like but and by gosh i thought id better make for the door again and there was a lot of space between the hut and the door and the wind took me and flung me right up against the tank and i went down to the ground and crawled on me hands and knees i didnt go out again i remember before that the wind changed pretty suddenly from southwest to nearer west i think and id made a new hen house i thought indestructible and we had sixty pullets at the point of lay in this house to be moved out from the house to a field and we were standing on the end of the house and i thought i had nothing to tie that down with but there were concrete blocks there i had a pile of those in the corner and well it took the whole blooming thing and minced the hens up with the blocks oh it was terrible and it let an old house alongside with nothing in it and hardly a door on it and that stood right alongside of that one and it must have been like a comb it just must have gone in strips the gale for that house was now twelve foot away from the other one and why did that one stand and the blocks in in this one and the hens and everything so that was disaster were you married then mhm mhm did you have a young family as well yes and we took the whole thing down to the kitchen for the upstairs rooms were just going like this and when we were down in the kitchen the partition between the butt and the bairn as they called it was going like that inside of the house in the gale and it ripped about a quarter of the roof off before it finished and the slates but er still good oh it lifted huge stones you know it wa it was incredible were the bairns frightened well some of them i suppose slept over it what yes but i certainly did not and when it daylight came the next day next morning you could hardly believe it you could hardly see rousay for the foam that the gale kick up like a thick fog the had risen in the air and i never want to see the like again it must have done an awful lot of damage everywhere else too oh it did that all right and some of that hen houses blew right on the sea not our our owns but erm other people and they could see them the next day when the steamers went to the north isles for the er the cockerels or the hens sitting on the top of them and they could do nothing to save them did the steamers go the next day well yeah the wind fell but im not really sure whether they went the next day or the day after that i cant remember oh it took some sorting out on the next morning and you see all the crop had vanished over the night and they had to import hay and straw and goodness knows what did the council have to set up some sort of emergency system er yes i think they did but er we reckoned we lost about eight hundred and fifty pounds worth of gear fifty or sixty pound worth of that but which was nothing were folk insured for that kind of thing then or well no really some of them were not what about livestock would they have been in at that time of year oh yes oh some of the roofs sort of and that were peeled off no bother was there any loss of life no funny to say had it been in the day time im sure there would have been lives lost for they wouldnt have stayed in to seen their stuff go under going for the wind thing about boats you know you were speaking about the steamer coming back and forth to wyre but what kind of a boat service was there local boat service cos if the steamer only came once a week that wouldnt have been enough oh that was about the lot er we had if you wanted to go to kirkwall you had to cross to the rousay pier and then either hire a car or walk to and get across with tom erm that was in the early days charley and tom did the crossing there for the mails and early in nineteen fifty one no fifty five that we took over the mails and we before that we made quite a few runs to kirkwall with a that was a small one that we had and erm you had to get the bus from evie of course to kirkwall and back the same way back along with the back to what you would call the sea crossing er to and get on to the rousay pier then and get a dinghy or something and row across to wyre did you start doing a passenger service when you got the mail contract or did you to the mail just on its own first or did you no we did we did passengers before the mails we used to run direct to kirkwall via and erm it was then that the post office caught hold of us and wanted us to take on the mails so how did you work that was it er sort of round like egilsay or did you no no the first mail run we had was just merely from to rousay to collect the rousay mails and dump them at the rousay pier and they were sorted in rousay for egilsay and wyre besides that and as we were coming home from rousay pier we met the wyre post boat coming across for the mails that we already had dumped in rousay and egilsay crossed to the school just there yes er they crossed there to for the mails for years and years and you said you met the wyre post boat coming back so you didnt as we went back to wyre home to wyre we could meet the wyre post boat coming across for the mails that we put to rousay they had to go and collect the mails well you see they had the mail er contract on wyre long before we start but it finally ended up that we had the whole thing rousay egilsay and wyre so did you do a passenger service direct to kirkwall calling at egilsay and rousay er yes just er no really a service it was more hires than anything else just er for the business oh so that so the passenger service it it wasnt actually a a daily passenger service like it is now then oh no no no well we went every day on about the mail so it was a passenger service that really started off in nineteen fifty five but we bought maybe in nineteen fifty three or fifty four we had to run direct to kirkwall quite a lot then when did the bus service start to then oh it was a while after we start actually it not that long ago but a few years now well what did folk do when they got to then oh well bob had a mini bus that he went with and picked up the passengers and of course he died and i think there was no bus then no they only thing they could do was to go walk up to walk up a road to and contact the evie bus but it didnt come down along for years and years and then er tom retired and he used to run the bus long after we start the mails and then he retired and er the bus service to come down along and pick up the passengers and that was how it start there was tom running a passenger service at the same time as you were doing the mail mhm and he lost the mails in nineteen fifty five he packed up the mails and er tackled the to have a go and we were not too keen on it at that time but had been all right so are there two boats going every day then well yes there would nearly two going every day indeed did you take supplies and things as well then mhm i took our tin of bread across for donkeys years what happened in the days before freezers i mean well like going back to this you know when folk didnt have power things wouldnt have kept what you would have had a totally different kind of eating habits well i suppose more salted meat i mean more home home butching and erm making bread i suppose or the womenfolk were likely baking every day it must be totally different now i i know that in places like hoy that just used the freezers all the time yes mhm even with our daily transport mhm oh yes we yeah we use a freezer too we took in and for and still use it i thought plenty believe in fresh meat and that i suppose fresh meat is better but youre only suppose to keep a certain time anyway even in the freezer what about fishing when you were younger in wyre how did folk make a living oh plenty of porridge and milk and er oh there was no much money to be made i mean and there was a lot bigger population then than what it is now you said about the hens making a lot how did how did they work that as an industry with the eggs and things how did they collect and work we had a oh nearly a dozen cases of eggs dozen sometimes for some farms and it was a big business and tons of feeding stuff for every ton of feeding stuff then there maybe a hundredweight now coming ashore it was what happened well imported eggs i suppose irish eggs and goodness knows whatnot oh and theres factory farming this er big business i guess it flawed the lot of it you could always tell a deep litter egg oh absolutely it stank and it was dark orange yes you could tell a broiler what they call them er fowls that was absolutely white compared with a fully range fowl i mean thats the meat oh thats just no so good there must have been a big business even when the deep litter started cos i can remember the farm next door to us working a deep litter mhm and they had hundreds and hundreds of hens in deep litter and they seemed to be making a lot of money out of it oh they would yes oh they and i guess it set a few farmers on his feet but it didnt last what happened with the egg packing station oh well it just packed up you know no eggs and that was that there were two packing stations at one time one down at here and er where was the other one or the down the road here that was a fairly big one and i think there may have been one at stromness too oh it had washing machines and goodness knows whatnot auto whats automatic feeders and such likes what sort of prices did folk get for eggs then oh i cant remember that mm was it the the womens business really well up to a point indeed but er the men would er help out i doubt i always seem to recall the women up to their elbows in freezing cold water washing washing eggs mhm oh yes and plenty got this egg wash you see and just filled a net basket of eggs and put it down in the in the water and the water flowed through it kind of possibly possibly with a pump i dont know but it would be better if it did not need washing the egg was actually the eggs would keep better washed oh whys that then well i think it broke the seal in the wash and er which was good get them as they were laid they were okay keep the nests clean but that was no good to do either so sometimes the hens would start eating them and break the eggs oh what a mess when they changed the deep litter did it erm ive heard folks say that it actually affected the hens that they that they went cannibal and oh yes oh they would do that all right they started pecking one another and it was a job to get them stopped yes its funny to think of hens having feelings but i suppose being cooped up like that it did affect them oh aye it must have done mhm see they got on the lights so long of the day in the winter time and made them lay just like as if itd been summer well that was the idea of the mhm deep litter mhm mhm old one old ones just used which was at the bulb in every hen house and it was free range and i think there was nothing better than that and they would lay just when and collect them eggs that night afore the gale it was i just heard about sainteterre sainteterre is a

amaral amaral may refer to tonight live the happiness pill the terrorist godfathers and circuses are they right to use domestic cats roll up roll up its central weekend good evening welcome to central weekend and to our audience they come from ludlow welcome we start tonight with a big row thats brewing over this little pill its new and its given to people who feel depressed your doctor prescribes it as prozac but its already earned the nickname the happiness pill but is it safe oliver whats so wonderful about prozac as an antidepressant well it doesnt actually make less people depressed that its predecessors the great thing about it is is that it only only one quarter of the people who take it get side effects so the old tricyclic antidepressants make you know most people get a lot of side effects the second this about it its certainly not addictive in any way its not like the barbiturates valium and so on its er you know its completely okay to take and stop taking it and you wont want to have to go on and the third thing is that about twenty to thirty per cent of people who take it undergo a dramatic transformation in their personality it seems so its claimed in america and theres a lot of evidence that might be true erm and that is you know a huge difference from er just an ordinary antidepressant so whos it really for whos gonna m get the most benefit out of it well its it works best with people who r mildly depressed in factl less so with very severely depressed people but that is the great majority of people one in three women with children under the age of five are depressed for example so its a huge advantage for them to be able to take it and not have side effects dr vernon is this the way to make depressed people happy have the drug companies at last come up with something approaching a m little miracle its a load o crap the i feel as if im in a time war i really do twenty years ago i was on programmes li was central weekend on twenty years ago i dont twenty years ago feels like it i was on sorry feels like it well twenty years ago i was on programmes like this saying that doctors who said that valium and the other tranquillizers were perfectly safe were talking rubbish and that there was every possibility that there would be problems found in the future if we kept prescribing these drugs for vast numbers of people and now here we are again with yet another wonder miracle drug which they say has got no side effects and which is wonderful and is gonna make all these people really happy no we said a quarter of people who take it get side effects let me tell y er have you seen whats it got to do with valium whats it got to do with valium at all its got a lot to do with valium because its being what given to very similar people for a start its being prescribed in huge quantities no let me finish valiums given for anxiety and neurosis you asked me a question its being it is being prescribed t for huge numbers of people its being promoted as a very safe drug its a very profitable drug and we already know that it causes a very large number of quite serious side effects i have in front of me a copy of the data sheet produced by the company which makes it which was incidentally the same company which made opran do you remember opran which was withdrawn from the market its just whats this got to do wi its got nothing to do with opran got an enormous amount to do with opran because you dont seem to understand the way the drug companies work they put a drug on the market and they say that its wonderful and that the side effects are irrelevant and very slight and that everybodys gonna be very happy and its a new wonder drug and itll change the world and isnt that marvellous then a few years later when the problems develop they say oh god were terribly sorry well take the drug off the market let me be six million people in the world are taking this drug saying its really really helping them and youre telling them its crap im d let me just tell you some of the side effects which the company making it admit to now what do you say to those six million people look no let me just tell you what the mm side effects are what i would tell them was these are the side effects they should be aware of this no there are the side effects are only a quarter of people have those the companys you dont want me to say the side effects do you side effects only a quarter of people do you accept that fact that its only a quarter of people i no no i dont for a start accept it so you deny all the studies that prove that no conclusively and what im saying is that do you deny those studies what im saying is that y i probably do deny those studies but what i am saying is that the that the side yeah yes no very look hold on effects would not be known would not be known for a considerable period of time le let me bring in dr c er vernon let me bring in dr cosmo here vernon no l hang on a minute let me no i i i just want to move it around a bit vernon nobodys denying these are im these are important and we should talk about the side effects that are associated we will we will we will i have we will dr cosmo nobody nobody denies that prozac has side effects what the it has less side effects than other treatments what i emerges is depression is a common condition which is underdiagnosed and undertreated one in eight people who are seriously depressed er end up killing themselves by suicide about ten people a day kill themselves by suicide maybe maybe one in a thousand people who take prozac get bad reactions to it but that has to be seen in balance in the balance of a large number of people deriving a lot of benefit and maybe a few people having some bad reactions donna you took it what happened yeah well let me just say first im an agony aunt a medical journalist ive got a psychology degree ive written health books and as a punter i took prozac by accident i suffered what erm is known from as postnatal depression after i had my second baby and i fought it for a long time and i wanted to get kickstarted back to where i was before because i felt under a cloud well i went and i had a different drug from prozac i had something which is actually newer and er which one zeroxac right okay which was fine but lets lets not kid ourselves audience these are drugs these are mindaltering drugs every drug is a poison and every drug is a poison and every drug is a tradeoff you do not get something for nothing in this world and they know this and people who have vested interests in drug companies are gonna tell you different let me tell you what happened to me i went on zeroxac and there are side effects when you start while you get used to the dosage okay in my case i was very drowsy i got constipated they dont tell you very much about this they play it down once i took the drug i was okay to a certain extent okay now this prozacs in the same group of substances as the one i took and i was willing to do a slight tradeoff here okay what happened was i had no emotional reactions to anything i wanted to cry at something on t v i couldnt any more i couldnt cry i g well ill tell you later about what else happened to me isnt arent those symptoms of depression rather than actually the drug listen let me finish i went back to my doctor after two months and said well i feel a bit better can i a few more months okay fine he then gave me i didnt know i was on prozac for a month now he s he thought he was giving me the same stuff i didnt know what i was on all i knew was i felt twice as bad i went home and i st i got very very anxious i started feeling suicidal i was blubbering at everything on the television now i could cry but i was crying too much i went back to my doctor and said what have you given me this is not the same drug oh yes it is theyre medically quite similar what is it it was prozac well y you knowth the evidence is overwhelming that these drugs are actually good for depression that they lift the symptoms that they reduce suicidal fifteen per cent have got suicidal on it thats too high im sorry fifteen per cent of of depressed people commit suicide not fifteen per cent of people who take prozac get suicidal the evidence is fifteen per cent the latest research says the evidence is just against that you know the evidence is totally contrary to that no this is not true let me ask you donna why why you carried on taking it oh no i came off of it i i had a months prescription i came off of it i went back on the c on it i went off of it and th and then i was okay after that how did it make you feel i was suicidal one day id been on top of the world yeah and i could take on anything then the next day id be trying to kill myself then why did you take the drug then why did you why didnt you stop taking it because you trust your doctor because it was making me so bad doctor prescribed it and we trust the g ps for then why do you go to your g p ive heard all this tripe about and there were tested on prisoners in the u s and she can verify that this was this was exactly what we were saying why do you go to your g ps okay okay lets lets whats the matter with you people dont you listen to the patients any more let me talk to a g p down here dr stephen im concerned because there have been accusations by mix m mr hes actually erased from the register hes not a prac no im not erased from the register at all thats a lie hes not a practising er physician that is a lie actually i think we ought to get this straight okay listen before we go on medical register therefore you cant call yourself doctor now listen weve got two conversations going at once here why are you called doctor vernon ive got a doctorate of science and ive got a medical degree from birmingham university but youre not on the medical register no im not on the medical register for a very simple reason which im happy to explain to im very concerned that he made the accusation that the drug companies simply put these drugs on the market now prozac is one of the highest used drugs in the states and the states are second to none in drug testing the food and drugs administration really are absolutely now youre always making a balance in developing drugs and i have nothing to do with the drug industry im a g p you have a balance between trying to move things forward to get people better and on the other hand making sure that youre not going to do them any great harm any new drug in britain is every year the g p whos prescribing that for you gets a letter from a centre down in southampton to ask if thereve been any adverse reactions so we monitor as carefully as we can yes there are the food and drug administration the food and drug administration condones tampering of scientific data in the prerelease trials by we have the documentation on that which has been a obtained under the freedom o of information act yes it condones it they they w s they withheld and suppressed evidence of suicides occurring during the prerelease trials yes gr this is gr just let me introduce you to graeme you are with the citizens commission on human rights now what thats right is it that you have got so strongly against this drug what we have so strongly on this is that there are now over twenty eight thousand mm adverse reaction reports on the drug mm yeah and thats thats ten times higher th thats higher yeah than any other drug in history its ten times higher than the r reactions on halcyon of those reactions thirteen hundred there were thirteen hundred relate to deaths of the users and thats just too high a price to pay so is it is it too no no weve got to come back here is this too high a price to pay yeah i feel very sorry for the people whove had bad reactions from prozac about theyve died theres thirteen hundred hang on a second let him answer let him answer i feel very sorry for the people living who are here can i just say vernon adverse reactions th about a quarter of people do unfortunately and they have to stop taking it er c coming to this point there is abundant evidence that er say two thousand for example two thousand prozac takers were compared with er two thousand takers of the old tricyclics compared with people on a placebo and im sorry there is no increased probability of committing suicide people who are depressed generally are prone to committing suicide theyre also co prone to commit violence i wasnt no listen listen im gonna im gonna talk to someone here whos probably er only here because youre on prozac arent you thats right yes peter you you take prozac i take prozac why erm completely disabling anxiety and depression that is moderate but persistent and it needed something to break that cycle and prozac did the trick for me erm it wont work for everybody its not a happiness pill it just restores you to to some sort of normality you youve been taking it for how long ive been taking it continuously for two years and i want to stress that ive been taking eighty milligrams a day thats a lot that was the dosea and i want to stress also that i didnt start off at eighty milligrams i started off at two and half which i think is important and any side effects there was there was no side effects erm ma what ma what ma what difference has it made to your life peter comp completely i mean im sat here in a live television studio with a girlfriend on my hand i was housebound erm just no interest in my hobbies no energy erm peter well im glad youre here now listen listen donna donna donna wait a minute donna listen this is obviously of real help to a lot of people even if it doesnt help everybody you cant throw the baby out with the bath water no you cant frighten people off it when it is being of real help to people like peter no its now he was severely depressed its interesting cos you said it helps people with mild depression no no no he didnt actually and persistent right persistent and moderate depression okay bu yes now im not arguing that for some depressed people its theres always side effects of some kind okay peter i wanted to ask you a very personal question well he just told you he didnt have any side effects are you denying this mans right to tell you what he believes is true now wait a minute have you ever been on proz have you ever been on prozac oliver no alright well you wont be able to orgasm on it okaysexuality but im asking you to address his point youve just told this man youve just told this man that he his experience is invalid you said to him that theres no no i didnt i such thing as a pill without side effects he just said he had no side effects to to introduce to introduce one or two patients who ar who are happy with the drug is is irrelevant as you should know exactly because people took thalidomide and were very happy with it people took opran and were very happy with it people took valium and were very happy with it take penicillin and die of it because they have an allergic reaction even more people have died of overdoses of aspirin than any other drug in the world we didnt ban those let let me tell you about the damned side effects of this drug because people are entitled to know what they listen ive got vernon i ive got some people who have had the side effects let me interview them because theres nothing like a human story okay bye okay ill go home a personal face of this whole thing i i ought to say that we did ask the drug company to send some along or er and they said no er but strange but they but they we have got a man here who is the first in this country mr to sue them erm you took prozac thats correct erm what kind of person were you before apart from a bit depressed person i wouldnt bother anybody and it changed my entire personality it changed it so much that you co committed an offence that ended you up in in prison in prison for well you got a three year sentence prison sentence but you didnt serve it all erm you took a gun to your girlfriends house yes you handcuffed her son to his bed bed you were very violent in your behaviour where did you get the gun from say again where did you get the gun from i collect weapons why why do you put that down to prozac because it was something that was totally out of character my general behaviour changed completely after i was given prozac i was taken into the my wife died in january of nineteen eighty nine i was taken into the local psychiatric hospital at in the december of nineteen eighty nine and i was told i was gonna be given an experimental drug i was told nothing about it or any anything to do with any of the side effectsi i was in th i was on prozac for about four days i suffered horrendous side effects shaking and one thing and another why didnt you refuse it you didnt have to take it well as far as i was concerned i was doing what a doctor told me these bunch of clowns pick your gun up and go and shoot youre talking from a point of view of where well i work in this field and you can refuse that that medication unless youre under you dont expect a doctor to give you drugs that are gonna drive you mad if youre an informal patient you can refuse that medication psychiatric hospitals there must have been something wrong with you its hard enough to get into if youre crazy yes go on one of things on this drug is that we have many cases documented on this where people dont realize the incredible grotesque feelings they have of mutilating themselves et cetera are actually connected to the drug and its only when they see publicity of the drug that they actually realize i tried to kill myself twice in the space of ten days i suffered horrendous hallucinations people do you know government initiative to reduce the incidence of suicide by er is it er five per cent over the next years because so many are you saying theres no connection between the drug depressed people do kill themselves thats just rubbish it is and one of the key ways of stopping people killing themselves would be to change from the old antidepressants onto the more modern safer ones which a are easier to take less likely to make you kill yourself and er let let me introduce you to a nurse a nurse called nicola nicola nicola doesnt want to be identified er nicola had a baby she suffered from postnatal depression and er can i ask for a bit of hush there please nicola suffered from postnatal depression and she took prozac nicola you suffered some of the side effects that weve been hearing about tonight and then things got really bad how bad did they get i was only on the drug for seven days and by the seventh day id suddenly turned into some sort of maniac i became incredibly vi er i had violent feelings erm i wanted to go out on the street and rampage if id had a gun i would have gone out and shoo shot out the whole neighbourhood erm and really the only way i thought that i could prevent myself from doing anything like that was to kill myself in a very violent way because i n was so incensed the way i felt nicola i i mean i i totally take your story on board but you are a nurse yeah and yo yo you understand about refusing medication yeah why did you carry on taking it erm i hadnt actually felt that violent id been having extremes of emotion all week erm very high very low very very fearful panic attacks which id never had before in my life did you associate with prozac i did yes and i finally went back to my g p on the seventh day which was a saturday in the morning and he told me to carry on taking the drug and within a few hours of taking it thats when this happened to me when i just felt that i was on the absolute fringe of going berserk and i could have killed anybody it wouldnt have mattered who it couldve been family friends neighbourhood anybody if id had a gun i would have done it listen i cant go further into your story now thank goodness it all ended happily and you got some yeah instant help isnt this is an extraordinary situationn here is a nurse a a you know a a kind caring woman she takes a drug and yet she must be of all people the one person to say im having a side effect yes thats true and yet she still believes her doctor just like all of us do still trusts him well i still takes it i really do think that one of the things that im unhappy about this evening is that people are concerned that our profession isnt caring i take on a board all the comments that are made here i i think they do need investigation what one doesnt know is whats due to the disease and whats due to the drug what i do know is that there are thousands and thousands of people out there for whom life is intolerable roughly ten a day actually succeed in killing themselves how many more have a go we dont know sue can i i need to ask him a question a very important question is it that g ps dont read the literature that comes with the drugs i wanna know why g ps dont inform their patients about what to expect well because ill tell you what i came off cold turkey and i had the worst three days of my whole life i had all my symptoms condensed into a horrendous anxiety my head mm mm was spinning i thought i was gonna jump off the roof i rang my g p and said you never told me i had to decrease this dose hang on just get through the weekend he never told me what to expectan i i feel like suing him we we i ive just been told ive just been told that our entire switchboard is totally lit up one person has had bad side effects the rest of our callers think its wonderful but can i just answer that because hopefully we do we do try to listen and we try to give you what information youre capable of taking at the time if youre in a very distressed state you cant take fortunately now the drugs have to be packaged with an information leaflet so that you keep looking at it again and again and again okaygentle gentleman at the back there hes got his hand up to read it hang on donna yeah this drug couldve been developed and refined and er gone into a lot further but they didnt and the reason why they didnt is because the losses at the moment are acceptable profitability thats what its all down to before before i come back to you cosmo before i come back to you i want to talk to nicola you wanted to say something nicola yes i just wanted to say that can i just say that within about three days of coming off the drug all my symptoms of feeling violent murderous suicidal completely disappeared and theyve never come back since and all ive had since then is a dose of vitamin b six every day so th you are in no doubt that thats was no doubt at all wh w when testing a new drug youre trading off th th the the level of testing you can do it takes about a hundred millions pounds to produce a new drug it takes about ten years from test tube to getting a licence so you can test it more thoroughly but in that case a you put the costs up and b it takes longer before it gets actually before patients get the benefits of it so the big argument at present about th for example in other medications is that people are being treatment okay vernon the the the quality of drug company testing is abysmal much of the e well hang on a moment hang on a it fulfils regulations both the f d a you know never mind the regulations is it good enough the the quality of testing by drug companies is appalling one in six patients in hospital in britain are there because theyve been made ill by doctors one in six thats that is a frightening statistic forty per cent of the people who take drugs suffer serious sometimes lethal side effects there are several quite simple explanations for this thats why you need newer and safer drugs would you mind shutting up for a minute no im fed up of okay these bloody apologies for drug companies have you ever worked for a drug company i d have you ever received money from a drug company yes of course i have you have what do you mean yes of course i have you have received money from a drug company yes i know about the drug industry how much he knows about i know about the drug industry i do clinical trials i do research for them you d so you work for drug companies yes of course i do so what the fucking hell are you doing here apologizing for apologizing for a drug completely uncalled for vernon completely uncalled for you take it take it and come back here and lets see what youre like and you take it as well i dont have to you take the drug and see how you are i have taken eight youve taken it thats fine ive taken eight antidepressants over the last ten years prozac hasnt been one of them i must admit now listen this is an interesting point youve taken eight and cosmo people people and obviously shes had a lot of bad experiences we cant go into now but people people dont trust the drug companies because of all this long history and experiences effect here we have someone shouting at us about the bad effects of the prozac they then tell us that havent taken them now ive seen a lot of people who complain about taking drugs and the side effects they get when you analyze it you first of all find they havent taken it or theyve taken five other drugs at the same time now listen answer the question i asked you answer the question i asked you she has taken a lot of drugs in the past not prozac yes but because of the bad experiences when the drug companies have said for years trust us weve researched it weve developed it you know its it passed the f d a rules and then theres atavan and valium and all the things that we had halcyon and theres a horror story at the end of the day and now you have prozac why should we believe them this time well i think the drug industry and i dont represent them but i think the drug industry but you got money from them well you know have you have you done any work for this company vernon vernon i want the answer to this one no ive never done any work for youve never done any work on this particular product why should we trust them this time i think thirty years down the line valium was developed in nineteen sixty one now weve had all the bad news w w were still having bad news but now we thats right learnt we hope that we learn as we go along and that the same mistakes dont get made again but a twenty years ago twenty years ago falsify the testing results i have that documentation this here this here is thirteen hundred the list is thirteen hundred deaths thirteen hundred deaths due to prozac were sitting in this room and were hearing a lot of people whove had bad experiences with prozac and other drugs twenty five per cent of people who take the drug have bad effects thats a lot the drug companies say that im terribly sorry madam im terribly sorry madam you might die if you take this drug nobodys whos died has ever been depressed after theyve taken listen vernon vernon has ever been killed by prozac and you know it vernon the the drug company says okay im gonna go back relationship between okay dr dr hush im very very concerned that we dont the the th there may be an argument and i dont know the details of whats being said here and i certainly would not defend any sort of the highest level of enquiry but if one sixth of patients are in hospital as a result of what weve done wrong five sixths are there because we havent managed to stop them being there so dont lets forget that dont lets just say drugs are bad because for every one that has a bad time and some people have a terrible time you say some people die i accept that okay but a lot of people come out feeling a hell of a lot better okay i would like to thank everybody

californication californication can be welcome back all week elton john made his various entrances and exits from the high court where he was honest about his addictions to drink drugs and binge eating he left with his head held high but what did he have on his head should men fight nature with wigs and hairweaves or is bald best well with us we have some gentlemen who believe that bald is not best and we do some people who think that maybe theyre wrong barbara you wrote an article in the times about all of this youve been following elton johns comings and goings in the court what did you think ha of his new appearance i just thought poor guy i mean he was somebody who thought hed overcome food addiction drink addiction drugs addiction and he looks like a spider i thought it was really very funny this long straggly black hair he looked absolutely miserable he thought he was now spiritually calm and spiritually sane and hes got this peculiar thing on his head that makes him look so daft nobodys told him obviously well listen is it is it just hairpieces that look funny youve got something against or have you got something against all sorts of things that men put on their heads we er i think i have i mean it is if they look funny i feel that theyre sadder if you cant tell then thats you know jolly good luck i suppose except that somebody knows they know elton elton looks like ronnie corbett in drag in that wig the funny thing is that if if you know that what youve got on your head is something acrylic then you cant feel all that good about yourself well listen let me i let me introduce you to now who shall we pick tony first of all what have you got to say to itsitting there in your then do i call it a toupee or a wig or call it what you like call it a cat if you want i mean i dont mind i like pussy on the head it probably was i think its actually its been made from cubic hair er pubic hair sorry come on and er i feel ive been wearing one for about twenty five years and i feel a lot better i feel i feel as if i look good in a wig and without one id excuse me me why are you all laughing excuse me what can you wear to improve your face i wore it for one year and that come on alan alan was the worst year of my life come on come on you said you said its the worst year of your life the w year you wear a toupee why why because i i felt it wasnt me i was an artificial thing walking around i was scared i was scared of i wanted to see the real me the real me and thats me without it listen listen has he got artificial teeth have you got your own teeth yes and theyre all mine and theyre real lance lance lance lance why do you wear yours because i dont like bald heads if you see for yourself have a look atem alan alan bald is not er alan bald is not necessarily beautiful havent you ever thought of covering it up no not really see this man here he he thinks hes comfortable with his wig but he wears the jacket so we dont even get to look at his hair actually actually i like to you dont say much but when you say it its nothing is there a volume control on that jacket turn it down a bit its a bit loud okay john why why why why do you think its important that you should be allowed to wear a hairpiece if you want because im emotionally affected by not wearing it all these people who are applaudinghalf of them have got their own hair yeah yeah if they didnt have their own hair theyd kn theyd know the emotional effect of hair loss now i ive been selling hairpieces for twenty three years so im probably better in a better position than anybody here to explain the emotions of men whore losing their hair and some of those guys out there some of them have actually committed suicide yeah but my argument is right that they shouldnt feel that bad well your argument is that they shouldnt feel that bad but they do feel that bad well thats because somebody has told them that bald is ugly bald isnt ugly its im sorry my darling bald is ugly calm down guys i want to ask you is is he better with it or without it take it off you might not be better but youre natural whats the difference excuse me excuse me do you wear false teeth no how many people in the audience wear false teeth whats that got to do with it its exactly the same thing listen this is getting too noisy one person at a time please sh sh i will answer if you shut up hush all of you hush one at a time gentleman here can i just make a point can i make a point ive had a bald patch for twenty years its part of my character its who i am and im not gonna hide underneath any wig my friend if you didnt have hair at the front would you guys like to look at me and ask a answer a question why do you bother why not live like nature intended you to but nature didnt intend intend it we was born with hair wasnt we you were born with hair we werent though i was born with this haircut okay what what do you think now youre youre youre youre a hairdresser of some standing in london why do you think that men get so hung up about all of this kind of hair because its a sign of insecurity never and if let me finish if it makes them feel better if you wanna wear a wig or doughnut you wear one if you want to stay bald you stay bald but whichever way it doesnt interfere with my life right so if you want keep a wig on and you feel happy and you feel more of a person erm then fine why do you think it is that people need to do it well the thing is that you know erm somebodys got no hair they think a lot of this the problem revolve round the baldness and er they havent come to term with it so they go and wear one and it makes them feel better for job interview pulling girls er going to places you know is is does does it boil down does it boil down to a lack of security to the fact that one at a time sorry simply to a need i mean ive had people who cant get work because they look old right yes yesnow that group have come into me and two weeks after theyve worn the hairpiece theyve got a job after two and half years of not finding work so what do you say to that okay its not rubbish its the truth joshua these gentlemen here have got such big mouths its unbelievable i wish theyd listen to other people ive been bald from a very early age but i happen to be in the hairdressing industry and i travel all over the world teaching what right does any individual have to tell other people what they should or shouldnt do excuse me excuse me if you if you used your mouth as well as your brain youd be better off the thing is this that quite honestly nobody here has the right do you like the way that gentleman looks he likes the way he looks good luck to him he wants to wants those boots great these guys wanna wear wigs they feel good with it letem do it who tells you what you gotta eat where talking about talking about life here is someone we all know heres someone we all know from thats life howard when did you start going bald i started losing mine when i was nineteen and er i must say in answer to that gentlemans yeah er comment about erm the chap not getting any any work erm i think i can attribute most of my work to the fact that i do have a bald head youre in that nice kind of profession where people it c it certainly hasnt been a drawback to me it hasnt tell me did it give you did you actually just say i mean nineteens young yes to i mean did did it ever bother you well i was a drama student at the time and i suppose erm yes listen can you just shut up one at a time lady there yeah i wanna know right why dont you just you know go bald you know normally why do you have to hide it cos im happier with a hairpiece on okay listen theres someone over people treat me differently yeah but you know women treat me differently if a women puts her hair hands through your hair yeah right and it falls off in the soup it doesnt fall off in the soup it never falls off its only the ones you see on the advertisements that fall off can can you can you run your hands these never fall off can you run your hands through it yes like that hows that alright alright listen let me let me come to david wilkie david david we know you so im going swim with itdo everything in it ca can you stop talking wait you tellem david why do you want to grow your hair i i would be happier having hair theres no doubt about that mm erm i started losing my hair at twenty nine mm mm ive come to terms with it it doesnt bother whether ive got it or not but to be honest id rather have more hair than i do now and i put it down to having a fairly bad circulation and im get getting my circulation back using a product called and going on this er hair programme and my hair is beginning youre doing it for charity does it i mean is that really the bottom line or would you do you er im hoping it works im growing hair for charity but in many respects thats probably an excuse id like my hair to grow back is it working and its beginning to grow back a little bit the little hair is growing back and er that makes me a happy person mm if it doesnt grow back ive accepted that it might not but if it grows back ill be a very happy man okay th you youre the inventor of this system or the bringer of this system to the wider public should i say er why is it gonna work because we know why people lose their hair there are a number of reasons why people lose their hair stress is a very key factor genetics means that one may have a propensity to lose ones hair but and why is why is going upside down for two minutes twice a day gonna make it grow again its its part of a programme it helps get blood back to the hair fo weve all got all the hair follicles there what we havent got is the capillary network feeding those hair follicles okay is it is it is it going to is it going to work well i mean is is tho though we can see david upside down okay erm im a littl im a little bit im a little bit worried about er this er exploitation of people and security because theyve got no proven record and no medical evidence if he was that good this guy will be a millionaire and people will be growing hair all the time to put somebody on the chair without knowing if that persons got blood pressure or heart problems they could suffer from a s a stroke erm have er or be partially paralysed so i i think i like to see this man here maybe in ten fifteen years time with proper proven er medical evidence okay its quite a serious point you should answer it yeah we have a number of doctors who are part of our distribution er set up we have people like brian whos busily growing his hair back there are medical exclusions for people who cant invert so okay fine do you think it works well i c i ive seen so many things over the year i just dont believe it until i actually see it and th literally four weeks ago id just got back from germany went on a meeting the following morning and its that gentleman there steve and h hes got some pictures in his pocket which will prove exactly what were talking about because when this guy put his head down i just did not believe that that was youve grown your hair doing this am growing my hair that had happened proof of the pudding seeings believing we we dont happen to have the picture of you before so ive no way of knowing i do well i cant put it up we do yeah okay there you go we who can see it who can see this picture you need some glasses as well then you got it would you bother editor of penthouse here i mean i dont know why i dont know why i should think you know what women want i guess you know what men want i spend i spend a lot of time with them so i spend a lot talking to them do you do you think that women actually mind whether chaps are bald or not i donthink er that women mind at all i dont think that that people in general really take that much notice of it i mean i personally er have no objection or would not try and dissuade these gentlemen from wearing these things but i personally would never wear one and one of the reasons i would never wear one is apart from maybe two cases there you can always tell and i think the thing is that when i would feel very uncomfortable walking down the street and everyo id feel that everyone was there going wig wig and the other thing is theres a young lady at the back there made a very valid point er i spend a lot of time with a lot of girls its my job i dont want one of them to run her fingers through my hair and it come away in in her hand you know thats gentleman at the back there its its a misconception people dont know anything about the things that theyre not talking about youve had no experience of it you dont know you know of the bad hairpieces and wigs yeah any form of hair replacement that you see down the hai down the street this gentleman here is just antihair and the story whether its your hair up there trying to grow it or whatever erm people that havent experienced it dont know what theyre talking about you dont know youve passed youve passed youve passed thank you it aint its my own you believe that im wearing a hairpiece so you dont know and i i speak for most i wanna answer that because cos you were sitting over there i assumed can i finish you were sitting there i assumed that you did the fact is that every other gentleman there i can tell its a hairpiece yours i couldnt tell i was wearing a hairpiece yes of course i knew you were wearing the point i really want to make is that if somebody can come up with a hairpiece that really looks real i think people may consider wearing them john the best kept secret in show business it is not twenty five years that man has worn a hairpiece and no one ever knew barbara at the end of the day at the end of the day lance let me ask barbara this question at the end of the day everyones been saying if th if they feel good doing it and it gives them that much confidence and they feel great about it whatever it looks like why object well you dont object except you feel really sad for them because everybodys wig feel sad for me ill tell you what it is you think you look like youve got hair i think you look like youve got a wig now look when you get as old as me youll be ill be glad to have a head like you its mine i shant see eighty again i dont mind i dont mind how well i want to stay out of that ruddy but lance if you wont see eighty again if you wont see eighty again look if i take my hair off im gonna finish up with an old girl with a bloody zimmer frame ill tell the secret and hes eighty four dont you think that at eight at eighty four youd be like to be chasing the girls with your wig on hours of endless fun for you girls out there his teeth come out his hair comes off sex by numbers the trouble is baldness has got the wrong how old are you now its got a bad reputation we associate it with old age the truth is man loses his hair because hes got too much male testosterone and he loses it because hes got a sex drive like a rampant rhino the truth is ladies you only have to touch a bald man and you light up like blackpool tower that is the truth why do you shave your head because i was going thin but why did you shave it why did you shave it because i didnt want because i didnt want people laughing at me like everyones here laughing at you gentleman in the audience who looks as though he hasnt got much on top what did you wanna say i th i think thats just vanity why they wear it you know he hes on about hes on about chasing women why wear a wig to chase women another gentleman in the audience in the blue t shirt i gotta say that thousands of people wear contact lenses f through vanity and nobody complains about that and thats more unnatural okay arent you arent you arent you actually getting bald people a bad name isnt he yes doing more to get people to be proud of being bald than you are shaved his hair off now if he didnt shave his hair off and he was walking around with a rim round the side of his head id say maybe youre right but hes shaved his hair off so he looks better he thinks he looks like yul brynner right and thats why hes done it can i just ask you a question sue anyth anything youve heard barbara change your mind i wanna ask you a question i want to ask why you thi why you feel better with people knowing youre wearing a wig they dont know im wearing a wig oh gentleman gentleman up here what do you think if a person wait if a person wants to wear a wig and erm you know you should feel comfortable with or without a wig doesnt really matter does it you dont have this problem do you obviously not no thats great thank you all very much indeed thank you well thats it for this week er lets have a look at what weve got here on our cards the doctor who was advertising himself this is mr from northfield the doctor who was advertising the cure for baldness is going bald himself so obviously the cure isnt working from birmingham says hanging upside down has always been known as a cure in the far east and it does work alan from derby says i wonder why wearing a wig is any worse than a woman wearing makeup and tony from telford says i spent years combing my hair over my bald patch it stopped four months ago and im much much happier so thats it for this week sorry we didnt have room for our promised body building item ive been told to work on my pecs before we get back to it and er it shouldnt take too long next friday well do our level best to keep er our hair on during another live edition of central weekend

you do not mind my taking this method of answering your letter and i hope that you i did not put you to too much trouble to locate a recorder to listen to the tape i am just too lazy to write it all down and think that what i have to say i can put it better in words than what i can on paper ill let you do that part the first questions that you brought up was if possible i would be very grateful to you for a brief description of the two raids to gdynia pole ninth of october in colesfield tenth of october nineteen forty three to go back to the gdynia one on the ninth of october nineteen forty three i have to state that when our crew arrived in england we went to er through school at bovingdon for a couple of weeks then we were assigned to the ninety second bomb group and they wanna be sure we fit in at that time the navigator and bombardier starting going on missions because evidently they were short so by the time the gdynia mission came around the bombardier and the and the er navigator had missions under their belt so this was to be my first mission i flew as copilot we had a veteran pilot who would be aeroplane commander the rest of the crew was green or also on their first mission so that on er if you look at the crew picture this is the crew that flew the first mission to gdynia poland except kneeling the second man from the left is he did not go i flew the copilot position the trip to gdynia poland to me was a remarkable one by the eighth airforce because of the distance involved and the location of the target that was hit in the daytime i feel sure that the german luftwaffe must have looked at it especially the leaders and saw where the eighth airforce hit and seeing what we did and gave them some thought and consideration actually with our bomb group going in we had no fighter attacks on the way in over the target we had flack but we did not have air opposition then on the way back we crossed the danish peninsula and i think of course by this time the luftwaffe knew we were coming back that way and they had the fighters up there and this was our first time being on this mission that we saw air to air combat with the fighters against the flying fortress and in our ammunition in our guns there every fifth bullet was a tracer and it was amazing to me that as the german fighters came in it looked like just a hail of tracers going out but they were able to get in there knock down a b seventeen and leave it seemed unscathed untouched it almost seemed impossible to me that a fighter could go through that many bullets and escape unharmed evidently i did not see fighters go down that day but i know they did but this was a first realization as if there was somebody up there to kill me and i guess this is the point at which you realize that you are going to kill them before they kill you and all of a sudden we are in combat all our lives and we take a complete change in outlook from everything because up to now everything had been practise and training just for this except we did not have that realization that they are there to kill us whos gonna be killed first i sent you the articles that i had in my scrapbook from colesfield on october tenth i am looking now at the ones from gdynia poland on october ninth and its headlines port libs hit poland and prussia with vast damage caused by wrecker raid on four targets deep in the east gdynia danzig german plane plants are blasting great weekend blitz bremen and hanover get it again underneath that i have another article to which was kicked out sometime later but i have it in here it says raid on gdynia would surprise to nazis to say refugees in sweden tell how the non germans cheered in the streets but the two refugees eye witnesses to the american bombing attack on gdynia october ninth reported here that the raid caught the germans by surprise and that non german workers stood in the streets and cheered amid terrific destruction the refugees provided this picture of the attack which occurred with deepest thrust yet made into europe by britain based american bombers the germans thought danzig might be bombed but not gdynia since the latter is a polish city germans were confidently walking in the streets when the alarm sounded but they didnt take it seriously and failed to go to air raid shelters they came as a lightning surprise to them when two hundred american planes came over the city clearly visible in the cloudless sky the italians kept separating in two camps because of fascist and non fascist fleet ran around frantically trying to get fog machines working trying to obscure the target but the fog prevented warships in the harbour for putting up an effective antiaircraft barrage the bombers came in from two different sides of the harbour and from the direction and five small war warships and one larger vessels were wrecked by the bomb hits on a dry dock three coal boats and three tugboats were sunk the biggest coal crane and unloading machinery as well as six were damaged the terrific bomb blast shattered every window in gdynia headquarters for the gestapo and police were wrecked the germans announced only one hundred and eighty casualties but there were at least twelve hundred german military personnel and six hundred civilians including one hundred and twenty poles so this was quite a mission which i believe has not been adequately covered in the history and was a forerunner of things to come and like i say we got through that mission without any damage our gunners got to shoot at the first german fighters and we were an experienced crew with one mission under our belt the next day we went to colesfield now the mission to colesfield was with the crew that you have pictures have the picture of as you look at the picture from left to right standing in the back is or i should say and his home town was louisiana he was a waste gunner the second man from the left to the right is his home was the third man was a gunner and his name is his home town was stirling nebraska and he was the oldest man on the crew the fourth man in is from new york city he was the gunner and engineer of the crew he is now deceased the fifth man is he was a gunner and armourer and flew in the and the man furthest on the right standing is from chualar c h u a l a r california he was a waste gunner for two waste gunners on the each end of the standing group kneeling left to right of course theres myself and i was from new orleans louisiana at that time second man in is and he was from sanco texas er he only flew a few missions with me in training id had another copilot and er i had checked the copilot i had when the crew was organized out so he could go back through and come as er as a plane commander with a crew joined us just as we were ready to go overseas he had just come out of er flight school and of course his heart was set on being a fighter pilot and here he became a copilot so he was a very disappointed man and he did not stand up well in combat so there werent too many missions about five and i bounced him off the crew and wouldnt fly with him any more and got then other copilots to fly with me from our squadron and the third man kneeling the navigator who was from milford m i l f o r d utah and the last man is and he was from dekalbd e k a l b illinois now the thing about this crew and the crews that you were talking about from the hundredth bomb group the i guess the most famous crew from the hundred bomb group is with the roses rivetus now our crews were at the same time and myself or as he was better known came through b seventeen transition school at in florida together and where the crews were formed so that the names in the army of course are worked alphabetically so everybody on my crew is trained with everybody on crew and their last name is just ahead erm in the alphabetic in the class that they were in so that my navigator came from the same school the same navigation class as the same way with the bombardier waste gunner radio operators engineers and all the gunners so that our crews were all buddybuddy crew and my crew were buddybuddy from the minute we were formed right on through i guess you might say the rest of our lives here even though we have not gotten together since the war but i have talked to on the phone one time when i was in new york city the er other thing about our crew was that er one time there i guess after was the only one that got back and they they had to get him back on flying service he flew to our base the reason there all of his crew members to visit with all of my crew members then one time after weve had a rough mission and trying to get back on flying status anall we flew over to your hundredth bomb group field and this did the there with crew once again each man visited with his own buddies that theyd gone through training with here in the states so we feel very much attached to the hundredth bomb group and of course this picture was taken at tennessee right before we went overseas to start our bombing missions so that the aeroplane behind us course doesnt have a namewas one that was used for training so when we got overseas course we flew with the ninety second bomb group the three two six squadron and er all we were pretty well into our missions i would say about six seven eight when a new plane came in and they assigned it to our crew it being the principle crew and we got to name it and we named our plane skyscraper i do have some later pictures but er it taken in front of the plane of the crew that i was flying with at that time and the ground crew in front of skyscraper but this is the crew and the picture that flew to colesfield on the tenth of october of forty three and we had nothing out of the ordinary to report about that mission and that was the gdynia mission the day before it certainly stands out on our minds because of the length of it and then of course the next one on the fourteenth of october to schweinfurt which changed our lives i dont know if you have the book by is the history of the ninety second group and in case you dont have it i would just bring in about these two missions on october ninth the ninety second group participated in the eighth airforces longest mission to assault the harbour area at gdynia poland on the western side of the danzig twenty one aircraft led by took off at eight hundred hours and twenty returned ten and a half hours later the aircraft by second lieutenant failed to return victim of savage enemy fighter attacks the following mission to colesfield on october tenth but ninety two ninety second planes leading the division excuse me failure to combat when commanding officer directed the attack flying twenty aircraft was despatched and sixteen attacked covered the town in returning crews claimed it wiped out photographs made after the attack on the german naval base at gdynia showed the five hundred and fifty foot liner stuttgart burning fiercely three other ships in the harbour were left burning and dock railway yards and workshops hit that was directly i was just checking here in from the book by and i was looking at the chapter here on roses rivetus and er and it was on the mission to munster here that er third combat mission once a day for three daysrunning was to munster it was this illfated mission that made the reputation as the bloody hundredth and of course this is the one that he only came back from they also see that on page hundred and ninety nine they have a picture here of crew of rivetus and i was just getting about these names to mind his radio operators name was mine was nobody must have been his bombardier mine was and my navigator was and i see his would have been his flight engineer must have been mine was that was very interesting and i thought a good write up of and the things that he did there to survive the world war two and of course i go back to when the crews were formed and we flew together training at pyo texas and at er dallasburgh tennessee and then from there went overseas we went to er scotville illinois and picked up new planes in petermover and it was we went to stagen area now it was there that we became separated i developed a very bad throat and could not fly just before we were ready to leave for overseas as in his crew and the other crews that were there went on whereas i got held back and of course the way i feel about it is that that week that i got held back saved my life i hope this little titbit of news about the crews that were formed and especially the ones of rivetus because that is what youre writing about since he was the only one back from the hundredth bomb group but how well we knew him in training since the two crews trained together and of course the flying part of it and myself have coordinated our flying with our copilots we used to just the two of us go up and we would actually fly a circle around one plane over another so one plane was and the other plane would fly circles around it and keeping up with it and this calls for close teamwork between the pilot and the copilot because as youre keen and went into view and and then of course we switched roles and i would become the leader and hed fly circles around me training with his copilot then of course the there were area combat missions area missions but these had nothing to do er with the work training i think that and i did and in developing of our crews so that we were able to survive and of course er our mission that we thought that would probably be the same as was on the fourteenth when we went to schweinfurt and we made it back and not only that but we got back to england wed manage on about the third pass to get in to this one field and there was another plane trying to get in and they went up and bailed out and after we were eating our supper here they brought the men in the fields er where they on the bombersfield where they had landed the never got in so they went up and set the plane on automatic pilot and bailed out because they couldnt land the plane but we managed to take them out and i think there was the extra good flying training and i did together that made us able to survive the savage attacks that we had he had it on the munster mission i had it on the schweinfurt mission so now thats about all i have on these two missions for you and i hope this will be of some help and er be only too glad to hear from you you can continue on with this tape go on i tell you what why dont you flip it over and start on the other side even though it says this side done this is an old tape from a seismograph and er we were afraid to use it in our work but i think the sounds alright on it you flip it over and where it says this side down put that side up and use the other half of the tape and let me hear your comments back because if you will have a had to get a recorder to listen to this side so you might as well put something on the other side and send it to me but of course there is no rush and in return youd be showing you take off anything or any part that you care to use galeata galeata is

states of america erm let me make a few announcements erm firstly longmans the publishers are producing a large and they hope definitive dictionary of the english language and in aid of this they have asked various universities to produce examples recorded examples of academic monologue and weve agreed to cooperate and that is what this little piece of electronic wizardry is in aid of in case you were wondering erm the lectures given in the department of politics can of course be described in many ways and academic monologue is probably one of the most neutral erm of them er secondly erm theres a a change in the programme of these lectures erm dr julia is going to be on sabbatical leave next term and would therefore like to give her lectures on mill and utilitarianism erm this term so next week you will have julia on rousseau and immediately after that shell give her lectures on utilitarianism and mill and i will then come after that and deal with socialism and marx and all that really sexy stuff erm finally erm ive come down with whatever it is thats going around and erm youll notice that my voice is even more gravelly than normal erm i hope it holds out erm for the duration of this lecture i have in the last couple of lectures erm outlined or tried to outline erm lockes basic decision erm his concept of how we as individuals are related to nature to each other and ive emphasised the crucial importance of this notion of how we are related to god erm if my reading of locke erm differs from that of most of my erm fellow historians and political thought erm it differs in a matter of emphasis erm i think that lockes theology erm plays a much more crucial role in his thinking than many of my colleagues think and i mention this because er you might note this as a possible bias that you might like to take account of in reading locke in short as i said at the very beginning of this series of lectures you mustnt treat what as i say as gospel erm i am perfectly capable of being a little bit eccentric possibly even a little bit erm original erm in my interpretations erm and i have been plugging the line that what underpins lockes what underpins lockes general political position is his theology his basically calvinist notion of how human individuals are related to god they are gods servants sent into the world about his business thats what theyre here for and thats what governs all their obligations theyre rights and so on its an emphasis which is not endorsed by many of my colleagues and youd better bear that in mind what i want to talk about today is erm lockes erm theory of the social contract and government now then he argues that since in the state of nature erm the individual has the right to life liberty and property he or she also has a right to take such steps are necessary for the protection o o of these rights he may defend himself against attack for example cos he has a right to life and he may also defend his neighbours against attack furthermore if a violation of the law of nature has already taken place he has the right to punish the offender and this involves both the right to decide that a breach of the law of nature has taken place a right to decide what punishment is appropriate and also a right erm to implement this judgment in other words locke argues on the basis of his general notion of the relationship between the individual and god and the individual and his fellow human beings erm locke argues that the individual in the state of nature has what one may fairly call legislative and executive authority over others and of course every individual has that authority let me by the way put in a footnote here erm modern theorists of human rights just start from the position that human rights are of course self evidently inherent in each individual im thinking for example of erm nosette in the tradition of of natural in the natural law tradition which locke erm erm shares erm there is a basic position which runs throughout them all and that includes incidentally even hobbes to the effect that erm we dont just have rights as individuals we have rights for a very particular reason we have rights because we have obligations its our obligations that are fundamental and it is because we have obligations that we can claim to have rights if i signed a contract to carry out a complete refurbishment of the interior of your house i have an obligation to fulfil that contract that means that i have a right to access to your house you cant stand at the front door and say no you cant come in at all apart from its being completely irrational erm the point would be that because i have an obligation to carry out this work i have a right to the means to fulfil that obligation similarly for locke were in this world sent by god about his business the business is in very general terms to flourish and multiply this means well that is the reason why we have certain rights the right to life the right to liberty the right to property because if we didnt have these rights we couldnt fulfil that obligation so rights and obligations here are very closely connected at least in tradi in the erm in the good old natural law of traditional thinking thats just a footnote back to erm lockes state of nature as i mentioned erm according to locke the individual in the state of nature erm has certain rights which involve the enforcement of the law of nature erm and this means that he has legislative and executive authority now in the state of nature this has according to locke certain inconveniences first of all in the state of nature this means that individuals will often be judges in their own case and that is not good jurisprudence erm it means that very often individuals will have an obligation to enforce the law of nature but will not actually command sufficient force to en erm erm sufficient force to execute their judgments and so on and so on and so on what is required locke argues is that the law of nature be embodied in a set of known and established laws that there be an ind in short that its not just up to the individual to state what the law of nature is in any particular case you know youve got a set of known and established laws you know which do that it requires that there be an independent and impartial judge to adjudicate disputes i e a judge whos not actually a party to the dispute it requires also that there be an armed force sufficient to enforce the law on recalcitrant individuals well these requirements are locke argues met by the social contract the social contract in which individuals agree and consent with one another and i quote him to unite into a community for their comfortable safe and peaceable living one amongst another quote by thus consenting they form one body politic and it is implied in the contract that the majority have the right to conclude for the rest and let me quote for when any number of men have by the consent of every individual made a community they have thereby made that community one body with a power to act as one body which is only by the will and determination of the majority it being necessary to that which is one body to move one way a single body cant move in two opposite directions simultaneously it is necessary the body should move that way whither the greater force carries it which is the consent of the majority or else it is impossible it should act or continue one body one community which the consent of every individual that united into it agreed that it should and so everyone is bound by that consent to be concluded by the majority there are lots of things in this erm erm do notice that locke is emphasising that by the social contract individuals establish a unitary body a community and furthermore a community which has the capacity to act there are certain problems with this conception one of which at least i shall allude to erm towards the end of this lecture erm there is a further implication in this conception and again i quote whosoever therefore out of a state of nature unite into a community must be understood to give up all the power necessary to the ends for which they unite into a society to the majority of the community unless they expressly agreed in any number greater than the majority and this is done where are we by barely agreeing to unite into one political society which is all the compact that is or needs to be between the individuals that enter into or make up a commonwealth the power the power locke has in mind is the legislative and executive power which the individuals possess as of right in the state of nature these are in erm in a social contract ceded to the body politic as a whole now of course it is not normally practical for the community the body politic to exercise these rights itself so it entrusts them to a man or body of men whom it commissions to exercise them on its behalf in short the community once formed creates a government there are two acts here the creation of a community a body politic by the social contract and then that community establishes a government as a separate act and i shall emphasise the significance of that shortly first of all however we notice that locke envisages the establishment of a government as the establishment of a trust and he means this in a fairly strict legal sense the government is a trustee and the body politic is both the trustor and the beneficiary of the trust the government is entrusted with the task of protecting the lives liberties and properties of the individual members of the body politic and there is a reading of locke which i questioned last tuesday which says that that is all a government can do in short there is a reading of locke that ascribes to locke a sort of minimum government theory the night watchman theory of government that all the government can do is protect the lives liberties and properties erm of the members of the body politic we also note that erm this theory of the social contract is a theory about the origins of legitimate civil societies it is a theory about how a legitimate civil order can come to be established it is not the case that whenever we become a member of a civil society a body politic that we are so to speak signing the social contract erm think of it erm a little bit like erm a social club erm east biddock old comrades club was actually established in the way locke describes you know a group of citizens of east biddock came together and decided to establish a social club subsequently of course all sorts of people are admitted to membership of east biddock old comrades club but that as a process which although very similar to the original contract of establishment isnt actually erm the same you know theyre not actually reestablishing the civil society theyre joining one that already exists i would suggest to you in short that erm just as lockes labour theory of property is a theory is not a comprehensive theory about what constitutes a legitimate claim to own something but is really a theory about how private property comes to be legitimately created erm so his theory of social contract is not a theory about how we acquire political obligations its a theory about how legitimate civil societies come to be established its a theory about origins right let me now touch erm on three topics and the first one is erm the vexed question of consent in locke you will recall that erm according to filmer erm individuals do not consent to join a civil society they are simply born into it a civil society is a natural organism like the family and just as were born into a family so were born into a civil society you have all sorts of obligations obligations of obedience erm erm to the authorities that be for example simply by the fact that you popped out of your mothers womb in that particular territory and under that particular jurisdiction no consent is involved at all locke of course wants to argue a strong case to the contrary he wants to argue that membership of a civil society is voluntary he wants to argue that we do join civil societies and that we can under certain circumstances erm decide to quit them and overall of course against filmer he wants to argue that in this respect a civil society is radically different from the family again think of the example of erm erm a social club you know relationships between members although they may be close and intimate and friendly and all that are not the same as a relationship between members of a family you know weve got a completely different animal thats what locke wants to argue very briefly on lockes account members of a civil society are obliged to obey the rules of that society simply because they have agreed to do so they have given an undertaking they have promised they have consented they have said that they would erm erm undertake certain obligations and a gentlemans word is his bond isnt it theyve promised however and there is some discussion amongst interpreters of locke about this what counts as consent locke speaks of express consent but also of tacit consent and indeed in one place tacit consent is deemed to have been given merely by being on the territory of the civil society in question the idea seems to be that you have tacitly accepted the protection of the laws and thereby you have tacitly undertaken to obey them a french tourist visiting england lockes case seems to be that the moment he steps on the territory of england he has tacitly agreed erm to obey the laws and in return erm of course he receives the protection of those laws that just by coming to england and driving along the road from dover to to london or wherever he has given his tacit consent locke does suggest indeed erm and erm the example that the rather silly example that i just gave is meant to bring this out erm that of course those who have only given tacit consent are not full members of that civil society okay our french tourist is entitled to the protection of the laws but hes not for example entitled to vote and hes not entitled to hold erm public office sure he has rights and there is a sense in which he is a member of that civil society while hes here but he doesnt have full political rights hes not a full member and let me quote locke er here we are are we he says but submitting to the laws of any country living quietly and enjoying privileges and protection under them makes not a man a member of that society then he goes on a little bit further down nothing can make any man so but is actually entering into it by positive engagement and express promise and compact now many commentators have found it not entirely clear what locke has in mind and im puzzled by erm the confusion into which they seem to have fallen erm they seem to have some trouble erm grasping erm under what circumstances according to locke you can be deemed to have been given to have given express consent and some commentators suggest that and im thinking here particularly of macphearson in his book erm erm erm possessive individualism the theory of possessive individualism erm they suggest that if you according to locke if you purchase or inherit property in the territory of a particular civil society that counts as express consent now what macphearson wants to say is that erm locke sort of covertly wants to introduce a property qualification for full political rights back to the question who are the people erm everyone or only those who meet a certain property qualification and macphearson wants to argue that locke is fairly clearly suggesting that there is a property qualification for membership of the people the people being the sovereign i find the textual basis for this interpretation very flimsy in fact there is clear erm erm erm textual evidence for precisely the opposite and let me cite erm one instance locke is here talking about tacit consent and the purchase of property and erm he says whenever the owner who has given nothing but such a tacit consent to the government will by donation sale or otherwise quit the said possession he is at liberty to go and incorporate himself into any other commonwealth or to agree with others to begin a new one in any part of the world they can find free and unpossessed whereas he that has once by actual agreement in any expressed declaration given his consent to be of any commonwealth is perpetually and indispensably obliged to be and remain unalterably a subject to it and can never be again in the liberty of the state of nature in short locke is plainly saying it seems to me that anyone who say a french man buys a holiday home in england reversing the general trend nowadays erm locke is saying hes still a french man okay all hes done is given tacit consent he owns property in england fine but that still counts only as tacit consent he can sell it and go back to france or might emigrate to america and join a different civil society but anyone who has given express consent cant do that so it i think it is clear that locke is not saying erm that the purchase of property in the territory of the civil society counts as giving express consent well what does locke mean by express consent well lockes contemporaries would know exactly what he meant in the late seventeenth century this was the age of political oath taking and i think it highly likely that locke was thinking of for example the test act of sixteen seventy three basically the burden of the test act was that all office holders erm all holders of public office had to take an oath of allegiance and had to erm take the sacraments in the church of england otherwise they couldnt hold public office and that could fairly be called an act of express consent i think it is fairly obvious that erm the test act here erm was erm intended to exclude catholics from holding public office erm catholics would be highly unlikely to consent to taking the sacraments of the protestant church but erm that is the sort of thing that locke had in mind and i think im right in saying that to this very day all american citizens officially take an oath of allegiance usually in their schools as teenagers but they actually formally join the united states of america thats express consent and that i think is what locke had in mind to be a full member of a civil society erm youve got to erm give your express consent for example in the form of an oath of allegiance that makes you a full member it gives you the right to vote it gives you the right to stand for public office it gives you the right even to hold public office nowadays many of us find that a bit strange after all i dont think any of us or very few of us here in this room have actually given our express consent to be british subjects but in lockes day it was normal and lockes contemporaries i think would have had no problem understanding this what he meant a second general erm point that i want to draw attention to erm it goes back again to erm filmer filmer youll recall had ruled out any meaningful distinction between the private and the public erm the domestic and the political the state is nothing but a family and were related to his majesty charles the first just as we are related to our dads as simple as that you know the private and the public are identical political relationships are fundamentally family relationships i might add that filmers notion of dominion as originally granted to adam included both ownership of property and authority over men and here filmer was trading on erm erm the feudal tradition of erm property erm erm erm dominion erm entails that if you have property rights in a certain tract of territory you also have political authority over the people inhabiting that or that territory you know think of a straightforward standard lord of the manor and his service you know he has property rights in the territory he also has authority over erm the individuals who live off that territory erm and his purpose in emphasising this very traditional notion of dominion erm was of course well was amongst other things erm to make the point that individuals have no right of property which they can maintain against a government in short the king can tax his subjects can appropriate their property erm without their consent erm that was at least one of the major political points that underlie this notion of dominion erm in short adam had been given erm lordship over the earth and all its creatures and with that hed been given lordship over all human beings and the kings of this earth have inherited that lordship that dominion well locke youll recall erm well let me let me first point out the further erm implication of this erm which is that erm individuals have no rights of property except those rights which are granted by grace by the authorities that be by the king mm now locke youll recall had articulated a concept of private property as a natural right inherent in individuals independently of membership in a civil society and in doing that he was of course trying to mount a case against erm filmers position civil society on lockes account is established to protect the property rights of individuals but apart from this there was on lockes account no connection between political rule and the ownership of property okay the king and parliament has very extensive authority over us but that does not include erm any rights of ownership in our property as individuals that was what locke was trying to argue for instance erm erm a good illustration of this is lockes erm erm argument on the right of inheritance and erm in this case i am quoting from the first treatise of government the right a son has to be maintained has to be maintained and provided with the necessary the necessities and conveniences of life out of his fathers stock gives him a right to succeed to his fathers property for his own good but this can give him no right to succeed also to the rule which his father had over other men all that a child has a right to claim from his father is nourishment and education and the things nature furnishes for the support of life but he has no right to demand rule or dominion from him in short locke wants to drive a wedge between our rights as private individuals and our rights as members of a civil society erm as a private individual i have a right to inherit my fathers house when he dies however as an mere individual i do not also have a right to inherit his seat in parliament there is a clear distinction here between the private and domestic on the one hand and the public and the political on the other and i think youll find that in reading locke that that is erm one of the major themes of his argument finally a word about the right of resistance and here i think lockes distinction between civil society on the one hand and the state on the other is crucial and i mentioned this earlier and im now coming back to it looking at filmer again for filmer civil society was a natural organism of which the state was an integral part just as a father is an integral part of a family not so for locke you will recall that so f the way locke sets it up is a legitimate civil society is first established by a social contract and that creates a community a body politic which has a capacity to act and ill put a little question mark over that shortly erm and that community then as a separate act sets up a government which because it has set it up as a trust erm it can change or dismiss pretty well at will and the effect for locke is this and again i i quote the legislative being only a fiduciary power that is to say a power based on trust a fiduciary power to act for certain ends there remains still in the people a supreme power to remove or alter the legislative when they find the legislative act contrary to the trust imposed in them and thus the community perpetually retains a supreme power of saving themselves from the attempts and designs of every body even if their legislators whenever they shall be so foolish or so wicked as to lay and carry on designs against the liberties and properties of the subject theres a bit of a puzzle here erm how can a community act as a single body independently of its governmental institutions youll recall that hobbes had argued that erm what creates a civil society what creates a community is the establishment of a government the unity of a civil society what makes us all one people is the fact that were subject to a single government according to hobbes i find that locke doesnt really address this point erm okay as british we all form a single civil society now locke wants to say that we can act for example erm we can change the form of our government and we can do this independently of the government itself and i think one must ask the simple question what sort of mechanism does locke have in mind and i think it is not at all clear what sort of mechanism he has in mind it would be much simpler if he were simply talking about the relationship between the legislative and the executive cos here he could say right if the executive gets out of hand and starts acting arbitrarily and tyrannically then the legislative acting on behalf of the people as a whole can take action as indeed parliament did during the civil wars but he he is envisaging in the passage that i that i quoted the community as a whole actually taking action against a rogue legislative body you know suppose parliament starts breaking the rules and acting arbitrarily and i say the mechanism is not clear and that is at least one of the problems with lockes theory of the right of resistance to arbitrary government im sorry to leave locke by giving you erm a problem but erm locke is full of problems erm next week erm julia will start talking about the life and times of rousseau it will have nothing to do with the lecture but simply to impress those that my vocabulary is very wide okay this er this lecture is called multiple government and the federal system and it flows directly from the last lecture when i started talking about the er the constitution and about the principles and the values that erm form the american system and if you cast your minds way back to tuesday you will remember that what i said was that the americans were trying to create a system of limited government er and yet one which er protected the liberties of individuals not all individuals not black individuals especially but of individuals this was the rhetoric of the time and the main device that they invented to do this was something called the separation of powers and they argued that where political power is concentrated the potential for abuse is greater so that where executive and legislative powers are held in the same hands as they are in our system of government the there is more prospect of government encroaching upon the rights of individuals okay now i also said that the states which make up the united states were for a brief period independent entities themselves in the gap between the ending of revolutionary war and the framing of the constitution and so when their representatives assembled in philadelphia in the summer of seventeen eighty seven they were mindful of their independence and they were jealous of that independence they wished to protect it against encroachment they didnt wish to exchange one form of dominance for another so they they welcomed the idea of a separation of powers but they also insisted on another principle probably the most important principle of american government and that is the principle of federalism why is it the most important principle well if you think about it its the only principle that america has ever gone to war over er the american civil war was fought essentially over federalism er involving many millions of men and er in which over half a million men died erm so federalism is a fairly important principle in american government and that principle essentially is and most of you i hope will have done the first year course politics and policy making where i talked about federalism in general terms that federalism is based upon the notions that in the same territory you can have more than one government and that those governments er are of equal status erm in the american system of government the state governments draw their authority from the same source as the federal government that is the constitution of the united states state governments are not subject to the whim or control of the federal government state governors are not to be directed by presidents congress is not empowered to make laws for the states or to substitute them for the laws of individual states and so on and this is built into the heart of the system so you have a new nation being formed a new political system being invented and its invented on the basis of two principles separation of powers and federalism and federalism er remains a very important feature er of american politics now the political culture of the time was such that the political system which actually emerged is rather different from that which some of the people who went to philadelphia thought would emerge and that really reflects a number of changes one that america has grown from four million to two hundred and fifty million two from being isolated remote and scattered the population has consolidated and grown america has become a vast industrial power as opposed to a an agricultural nation and all these have had their impact upon the importance and scope of government erm in the er late eighteenth century the the the consensus was that you needed government for some spec specific purposes you needed government for defence to protect you against external enemies and to engage in foreign relations and diplomacy and you needed government internally to regulate conflicts between states er and to ensure a a sound economic platform so that you needed er a single authoritative source of currency for example er and a single source of er er tariffs and trade controls but over and above that most americans in the late eighteenth century believed that in so far as government had any impact on their lives it would be local government it would be the government of their state and not the remote government in washington which most people in the eighteenth century had never visited or knew anything about erm or li knew little of what it did now over time the relationship between the states and the federal government has been put to the test its been put to the test in the courts er and ultimately it was put to te put to the test er on the battlefields in the civil war and i think its worth just rehearsing very briefly that history to get an understanding of contemporary federalism if you can imagine at the convention the bias was very much towards preserving statesindependence if you want this constitution ratified i cant go back to my people and say youre giving up all your independence theres a new national government which is gonna decide everything that clearly would not sell back home er and so the constitution of the united states contained within it certain ambiguities a certain vagueness of er statement and the actual working of that in practice er was left to the politicians and the judges of of later times but quite early in the history of the united states some very crucial decisions were made very crucial decisions and the first was made in a decision of the supreme court in the case of mccullock versus maryland in eighteen nineteen just over thirty years after the constitution was drafted and in that the chief justice of the supreme court declared that where the er national government the federal government and the state governments appeared to have erm concurrent jurisdiction that is they both have some say over an area and theres a clash between the state government and the national government that national governments will prevails so where there is concurrent jurisdiction simultaneous jurisdiction see im throwing these words in here concurrent simultaneous you know erm the national government er er prevails the actual case erm was erm where the federal government established a national bank which had an office in in maryland and mr mccullock was the cashier of the of the national bank er and the state of maryland er thought that a national bank was an unfair form of competition with the local state banks in maryland and imposed a tax on er on the national bank now when it came down to it the national government essen sorry the supreme court essentially said if the national government wishes to create a national bank in pursuance of legitimate aims of the constitution then it should have the discretion to do so and it shouldnt be interfered with by a state government so where there was a potential for conflict between national and state the court sided with the national just five years later in eighteen twenty four er in a case called gibbons versus ogden i forget precisely who gibbons and ogden where erm but this was a case er of a dispute between the states of er new york and new jersey over navigation rights on the hudson river er and who had the right to regulate trade on the hudson river now the supreme court declared that decision that the constitution gives the power to regulate interstate commerce to the national government i e it wasnt a matter for new york it wasnt a question of whether new york or new jersey should control it it was a matter for the federal government not for either of the states so quite early on some very crucial decisions were made which tilted the balance very much towards the national government so its wrong to see federalism in a sense as an equal partnership between the states and the and the central government it is biased towards central government always has been so and has in become increasingly biased towards it i in modern times now you know the decisive event of american history the most important single event in american history was of course the american civil war the american civil war decided something fundamental it didnt decide as some people argue that blacks were equal to whites this was w one of the least of abraham lincolns concerns abraham lincoln supported in the eighteen fifties i throw this in for people who americ and theres usually an american in the audience whos brought up to believe that abraham lincoln walks on the water you know erm he actually suffered from syphilis by thats by the way its its no wonder he looks so depressed most of the time but the er abraham lincoln actually supported a constitutional amendment which would guarantee the right of people to own slaves so the idea of lincoln the great emancipator and friend of black people it needs to be corrected slightly erm in the in the civil war issue what was at stake here er was er the nature of the republic the nature of the union erm these states had come together voluntarily in seventeen eighty seven er to secure common aims protection against foreigners indians er economic aims and these aims bound them together common purposes and so on but was the united states a permanent union or was it something like you know the conservative party something one could join and leave as one felt like it and the er state of south carolina tested that principle south carolina threatened to leave the united states in the in the eighteen thirties and ultimately er in in the eighteen sixties it did so and er it was followed by a number of other states the so called confederate states and the question that was put then was the question that lincoln had no doubt about the answer to which was this is a is this a permanent union or not yes it is you know this is indissoluble it is forever to eternity er and there is no scope no opportunity no precedent no procedure for a state to leave once its joined i used to argue in the nineteen sixties that britain should become the fifty first state but im not so sure about that in any event the civil war was the ultimate sort of turning point which defined that the national government er had a responsibility for ensuring the permanence of the union and it took that responsibility so seriously it was prepared to engage in what was then the bloodiest war in human history and that defined the permanent character of the united states and then what happened subsequently er was of course that the in the twentieth century er america evolved into an industrial power erm and certain changes were made to the american constitution which had a profound impact the american constitution cannot be changed except through a very cumbersome and difficult constitutional procedure which requires the vote of two thirds of the members of both houses of congress and a resolution from three quarters of the leg state legislatures so its not a simple majority you cant just simply say oh lets add something to the constitution very difficult indeed erm er and there hasnt been a significant recent amendment to the constitution er in the nineteen seventies and eighties there was a long running campaign to get an equal rights amendment er which was sponsored largely by er womens groups and er and er gay and lesbian groups er and they got almost there they got two i think two states short of getting a constitutional amendment and then something called ronald reagan happened and it all sort of fell apart erm so the the procedure then was er in the early part of this century most important er amendment whose number ive forgotten but in about nineteen twelve i think it was er a an amendment was passed which added to the powers of the federal government the right to levy an income tax er and er that transformed the relationship between the federal government and the states because the erm potential revenues to be derived from income tax are huge and in the nineteen thirties america went into the worst economic depression its ever seen and the state governments were literally overwhelmed by the economic hardship and the economic problems and the federal government came galloping to the rescue well cantered slowly to the rescue erm well cheered them up erm so the federal system has a constitutional basis but it also has a financial basis er and the two are er closely linked so we have increasing dominance of a national government and we have increasing importance of er of er federal monies and and and er taxation powers now before i say something about er about er contemporary federalism let me just er put the other side of the case for a moment erm you may you may start to believe from what ive been saying that federalism is a kind of sham you know that its a that really states have lost significance viz a viz the federal government federal government is now more or less a a unitary state and runs everything well thats not true at all let me just run through a few features of american political life which make it rather different to er to our own er sceptred isle every state of america in america determines its own constitution and its own political structures and each state is entirely free to devise whatever political structures it feels like devising there is a er an almost consensus across the states as to what that should be erm but there are variations so there could be wild variations so that there there is a a scope er to determine that er each state is free to set up whatever agencies or departments parts of the bureaucracy it feels like setting up its not subject to any federal control or national standards its entirely at the discretion of each state how they organize their own governmental affairs each state in the united states has a different criminal and civil code and any of you who have been to the united states may have experienced this if you drive from er i remember being stopped by one of those men in the dark glasses erm if you drive from maine into new hampshire the speed limit in maine is sixty five and the speed limit in new hampshire is fifty five and you just cross a si er y theres a signpost which says welcome to maine or new hampshire whichever way youre going and the second you cross that line theoretically you have adjust to the different speed limit so if you were going at sixty four you know about a millimetre before the sign you have to be going at fifty five a millimetre after the sign er and you can be pulled up by a state trooper as i was pulled up quite unjustly i felt i didnt know there was a different speed limit between between the two states er an so there can be profound differences in er if you think of a subject i touched upon last time a very er contentious issue in american politics the abortion issue erm before the supreme court dealt with the matter in the nineteen seventies every state in america had a different law on abortion so you could literally have a situation in which you could live say er er a woman could er live er you know a mile from the state line and in one state er abortion er could be something which ended up with a doctor in prison for life in another state across the state line it could be something which was er you know er provided free of charge by the state public health authorities so wide fluctuations entirely different er codes this causes all sorts of complications i mean if you erm if you qualify as a doctor in texas er and you go to massachusetts you have to go through another set of examinations before they allow you to practice medicine in massachusetts because they dont accept automatically texas qualifications they re regard the ri they retain the right to determine their own standards of procedures in these sorts of areas so their own criminal and civil codes as well as their own political structures so these are major matters each state er engages to differing degrees in economic er and er economic policy making and economic regulation different states have different practices on on er er minimum wages on er banking structures on regulation of utilities on er housing policies on transportation policies all of these vary from state to state the federal government tries to get involved it tries to see some consistency but it cant actually impose that the states still retain er the right to do things their way and they do and its also true in erm in social policy in health care and so on you will find er different states operating different polic one of the one of the most interesting transformations of america in the post second world war years er was the migration of many millions of er black people from the southern states to the northern states erm and there were two very profound reasons for that one was the decline in employment in southern agriculture the increasing mechanization of agriculture displacing er millions of er agricultural workers er and the second and more important factor was that the southern states provide almost nothing in the way of social provision and certainly nothing for black people er whereas the northern states were much more generous so if you think about the massive exodus from the south in the nineteen sixties and seventies erm i cant remember the precise figures but in the at that time er sort of the equivalent of current social security cheque er in er if in if in new york it was about five hundred dollars a month in mississippi it was fifty dollars a month so if you were unemployed in mississippi and you were black you had trouble getting the fifty dollars to start with but that was all youd get but if you went to new york you get five hundred dollars so what would you do you know so a kind of enforced migration because of different social policies pursued by by different states and then the ultimate differences between the states are that they have control over their spending erm they have control both of income generation and expenditure they choose to tax as much as they want to and they choose to spend as much as they want to and no one can tell them otherwise there is no central control over that so if you take er another example erm most american states the majority have er a sales tax of some sort equivalent to vat as we would call it er most of them have a property tax equivalent to rates or council tax or whatever you want to call it now er and the majority have an income tax as well a state income tax so they have a wide tax base and they can generate large sums of money if they if they choose to do so and in different states theres a different culture a different attitude towards public spending and taxation and so on if you go to new hampshire i mu i must make a study of new hampshire some time if you go to new hampshire which is a delightful place if you go to new hampshire new hampshire appears to have no taxation at all as far as i can ascertain and the most favourite er car bumper sticker in new hampshire is taxation is theft you know theyre theyre opposed to it in principle erm so they dont have an income tax they dont have a sales tax either er im not quite sure how they finance public services in new hampshire its a mystery to me erm so there is this wide you know a variation but if you just take those points er an and and think them through in your own mind about how this system of government differs say from the british system of government and the position of local government in the british system you can see that well we dont really have local government do we you know we dont have anything which matches so while you can talk about the expansion of federal powers and the dominance of the national government in certain areas it is but nothing compared to the dominance of central government in britain over over local government if you think about the taxation issue you know the government in westminster exercises very stringent controls over what local governments can spend how much they can borrow what they spend it on erm if they dont like it they apply financial sanctions to to local governments and if they really get up their nose they abolish the local government altogether erm you know there is no doubt in our system of government that the power is highly centralized and that local government is seen as a a possible convenience well a public convenience probably erm something something we something to be dropped on from a great height as frequently as possible er particularly if its the g l c in the united states however much the federal government is irritated by the state government it cannot attack its constitutional powers nor can it undermine its financial base so thats a different relationship its a relationship based not on dominance but on partnership and there has to be an understanding a trade off between federal and er a and state government now theres something else thats important here and its something its an aspect of erm of federalism that people very often er fail to grasp erm we live in a a small and densely populated island er and we have a political structure and a party system which is highly centralized and which places er great emphasis on the question of party discipline and loyalty and er these centralized party structures control er the conduct of political business in the in the parliament and and in cabinet and there is essentially no political life outside of that its you know its like whats his captain oates was it going out into the tent in the antarctic or something you know its sort of i may be gone for a while you know in the in the into the wilderness and never to return so that in in the british structure er politicians are their loyalty is central rather than local because their political futures are determined centrally rather than locally in the united states the one of the impacts of federalism and the size of the united states and its diversity is that politicians in america are all local everything is local in america now if you think about conflict between the centre and the states you then have to ask the question well what is the centre well the centre is made up largely of the president er and the congress but the congress is made up of politicians elected from the states local local politicians locally accountable there is no central governmental structures and disciplines theres no party control er no party no equivalent of the of the whips office er in england the politicians go to washington as representatives of their states so to set up a conflict in your mind between the states and the federal government mistakes the nature of that relationship the politicians in washington are there to fight for their state and the conflicts in washington are not conflicts between so much between the states and the federal government as conflicts between the states for different advantages you know if er you know if federal government says well we think itd be a good idea to set up a erm you know a national space agency er nasa and all these other wonderful things you know and all the people in congress say great idea great idea er well have to have a launching site well have to have a launching site in florida er cos itd be good to get one next to the water otherwise the rockets might come down and hit people and that would be unfortunate so well agree there has to be a seaboard state but flo well well choose florida cos the weathers nice and you can play tennis all the year round so its a good idea and then we have to have mission control right you know where nasas mission control is houston texas so youve got the rockets going off in florida being controlled by people in texas why because the chairman of the committee in the senate that decided this came from texas and this provides lots of jobs in houston so he thought it was a jolly good idea so he was fighting for his state against florida and against other states who were trying to get these public projects so its its wrong to see it as a centre local conflict as much as a conflict between the states about public goods public projects and er and various kinds of freebies okay now taking that point then lets look at the the nature of er federalism financially as i said in the nineteenth century government did very little it spent er very little and the federal governments er expenditures really didnt amount to to very much at all but in the twentieth century and particular from the time of the depression federal spending has increased enormously let me justle im not really a im not really a very numerate political scientist but let me just run some numbers by you to give you an idea of the escalation of the change erm in nineteen fifteen thats before the er first world war the federal government gave to the individual states a grand in aid and grants and support a grand total of six million dollars there has been quite a bit of inflation since then but even then six million dollars was not a lot erm in nineteen thirty seven that is er after the first new deal and the second er roosevelt administration the federal government gave to the states three hundred million dollars so you can see in percentage terms the enormous er an enormous increase enormous trans transformation by nineteen fifty federal aid to the states had reached two billion dollars so weve gone from six million in nineteen fifteen to three hundred million in nineteen thirty seven to two billion in nineteen fifty in nineteen sixty five the total reached eleven billion but since then the world has gone completely mad and in nineteen ninety which was the last er time i checked this number in nineteen ninety federal aid to the states now reaches one hundred billion dollars so from six million in nineteen fifteen weve gone to one hundred billion one hundred thousand million dollars so the role of the federal government in financing the states has increased immensely and you might think that carries with it certain political implications and it does but its important to understand how small this is compared to the total picture lets again look at the look at the contrast in the british system of local government finance with the wonderful inimitable reforms of the present government er we have gone from a situation in which er the central government financed about between forty five and fifty percent of local expenditure to a situation where the central government finances about eighty five percent i think between eighty five and ninety percent of local spending so if you complain about your council tax dont students are exempt anyway so thats alright if you complain about your council tax dont because it only pays for a very small fraction of what local authorities spend so in financial terms the local authorities are entirely virtually in the pocket literally in the pocket of central government now in america through the nineteen seventies and eighties theres been increasing concern an increasing concern that the states were becoming more and more dependent on the federal government and these figures suggest that there was good reasons this was one of ronald reagans campaign themes this was a g a growing concern he said the federal system has been shattered its its changed its character the states are now dependent on the federal government and this is dreadful and we must we must change this and because he had a very happy turn of phrase ron he said that the states had become federal aid junkies you know nancy was saying say no you know but they were the states had become fixed dependent chemically and financially dependent er on the federal government and that must change says ron and he tried to change it he tried to cut the money that states received er to a marginal degree but in the total picture if you take what a any an average american state spends and you ask the question what proportion of that money comes from the federal government the answer is wait for it the answer is about twenty percent it reached an all time high of twenty five percent in about nineteen seventy five and its gone down since or put the other way round every american state raises eighty percent of the money it spends within the state whereas a british local authority is raising ten percent or fifteen percent so although there has been an enormous expansion of federal aid theres also been a vast expansion of state spending and state tax raising now one of the things that ronnie reagan was disappointed to find was that in order really to address his budget deficit he cut federal aid to the states but he did it er dressed it up in an ideological argument which said you know that the government is too big government is too intrusive government should get off the backs of the people you know er we shouldnt go to government to solve our problems government is the problem thats one of the one of ronnies other memorable phrases erm indeed i saw him i saw ronnie once in a hotel in er in washington this was the time it wasnt actually the time he was shot cos i got away that time but the he he erm he started his speech by saying er you know what are the what are the ten most frightening words in the in in the american language an and he said the answer to his own question was im from the federal government im here to help you know er and that plays very well with conservative business men if you if you say that often enough but what happened when reagan actually cut the grants to the states was that the states increased their own spending they actually taxed their own populations more to keep public services at at the level they were before so it wasnt the fact that hed cut back on government its just that the government came the spending came at a different er point in the in the political structure so erm what im trying to say here then is that the federal government is important the federal government tries wherever possible to guide states into into good practice and it offers rewards to states to comply with with federal er guidelines so that you know if you want federal aid for er a particular project you have to if you accept federal money you have to ensure that you meet certain standards or certain conditions but a very convenient way of enforcing civil rights er policies so obviously if er if mississippi wants some federal money for a project theyre not gonna get it unless there are civil rights provisions built into the into the project that is you know you cant just give dole out to white people and refuse it to black people erm that there has to be equal opportunities and so on but its interesting in american politics that theres great lip service paid to er the rights of states but really theres no ideological argument that overlays that erm in the days before the civil war the southern racists were very concerned to enforce federal laws in the north that the north didnt like like the fugitive slave law you have you all read uncle toms cabin do they still read that at school uncle toms cabin no sad tale of the runaway slave and so on separated from his family and his children and he runs away and they er as in many countries erm there is a very high incidence of er of death through death driving erm amongst young people and in america each state has a different er age in which youre allowed to consume alcohol so in some states its sixteen in some states its eighteen in some states twenty one er and reagan thought it would be quite a good idea if they had uniformity across america er in which you know that they would raise the drinking age to twenty one er and this would then er reduce the incidence of teenage drunk driving and if youve ever been in an american bar you will know youre very often funnily enough they dont ask me so much these days but youre very often asked to prove your age you know er and you have to produce your drivers licence and all the rest of it erm and so he increasing pure unadulterated you know erm if you want this stuff then you have to raise your age of drinking i mean just er you know a a piece of leverage or leverage as americans say to to get the states to comply this is the president who has this wonderful rhetoric about states and federalism and you know the rights of states but he was he himself was not afraid to use the power of the federal government to try and lever the states into line and it worked you know were talking serious money here erm so what im saying is that there is a partnership between the states and the federal government there is no single fixed correct relationship between the central government and the state government it changes from time to time er more and more of the cards are coming to the hands of the central government but you would you would be wise not to underestimate the independence and the diversity of the american states which have a a genuine er sense of of local er democracy and difference er and states very frequently resist the federal government so the ideal as far as federal government is concerned is they they devise policy guidelines and they provide financial inducements to states to implement various programmes but when it comes down to it they run up against the rock of the constitution and the constitution says that the states derive their authority from this sacred document and they are not to be tampered with and the consequence is that america has not only a federal government but fifty state governments er and those state governments are large enterprises which enjoy wide initiative and they contributors contribute to the divi diversity of the united states as a political system ill stop there thank you

lou grant lou grant is a fictional character inthe mary tyler moore showand its related tv showlou grant ed asner played lou grant santa rosa la pampa santa rosa is a city in the argentine pampas and the capital city of la pampa province argentina so she was like a dog with a bone oh i know wasnt she let it yeah go well you see especially as well with the typewrite weve got at the moment thats right yes i mean its in fact as soon as i walked in i wasnt allowed to go to my desk until i promised her i would get the computer out first before i did anything else if you didnt get it out at that time itd be half past eleven and shed lose two hours martin wasnt very happy though was he when he came no in the morning to you well she should have shifted it all up to yours i know shes supposed to have taken it off yes ooh i dont know if it would affect anybody in york in there yes i cant think see isabels already got t quite a lot of scale two time shes scale two anyway yeah yeah and shell shes oneoff so i mean shed never go to p no anyway dont think she would no it would only be if somebody was off on long term sickness or only when i keep getting her to do all this typing for me yeah but look at that in a week i mean and look i mean shed never spend two hours a week forty percent of her time because she does it so quickly but er oh being tied to reception though you seej julies likely to do quite a lot because shes got to stay there so youve got to yes yes yes yes rather than giving her any other jobs yes yes yeah erm right so ill erm sort of see what i can do with julie quite nice i dont know if shes at the top of one yet i imagine she probably she will be yeah yeah im sure she is she will shes been yeah yeah here four years yeah and im not sure i cant remember which i dont know whether she started on the bottom or the bottom ive a feeling she may be didnt start on the bottom actually no i dont think she did mm mm no so so it would take her two increments into scale two mm mhm which you know is an advantage in other ways as well i think because if you know shes being paid scale two you know other responsibility comes with it as well yes thats right even though shes getting it for the technology yeah mm i i i mean i do think that w what we would have to do is is if people started making inroads into two via this route it might mean then wed get to the point where it wasnt going to cost that much more to enable other scale one people mm to do that because i still think this is very much discriminating on the people like val for example i know shes got a little bit of scale two but i still think the reception is such a big responsibility mm and particularly mm in a a big office like york mm the thing is a couple of increments is not a great deal of money is it you swing you multiply it around the council it makes a difference yeah but within an office yeah its mm i mean what do you get paid a pound a week extra me yeah yeah yeah thats cos im only half time id get two pound if i were yeah full time and youre some pe some people would think it wasnt worth it but erm isnt is it well if you look at it if you look at it if you look financially at it for responsibility and financial reasons and if you log down every bit that you spent doing admin assistant and e o then youd say stuff this for a game of soldiers but you dont mm mm do it purely for that reason do you mm in oh no but if you look at the responsibility an e o hasnt got for scale three why are we flogging ourselves to death on scale four oh but thats thats the same for erm kevin as well isnt it especially yeah when kevin doesnt get paid overtime and careers officers mm m most of the careers officers that are on si scale six are taking more money home than kevin is yeah its true yeah thats right you dont want to so its just the organization doesnt make it right no but situation so mm yeah yeah i suppose no i was actually getting at a certain person that works for trident that doesnt think its worth extra hassle for a hundred and eighty pounds more a year yeah and its the difference between that is isnt it that somebody thats in the post will not give as much as another person in the same post mm but what can you do mm its down to that individual isnt it how they view yeah you know if that person in project tridents got a much easier for her scale four than you mm well i mean theres the the other thing is the differential around the the county cos there was a time when when waiting for sheila to retire cos whe im gonna love one member of staff to look after when the area career shes only got one to appraise so she can only have one i wouldnt let her appraise wonderful job erm yeah youd have to work for deborah then yeah youd have to work for deborah youd love that i know and to be quite honest with you the other day you dont have to work with deborah im not sure between her and tony tonys so busy looking into hes going so busy looking on whats going on behind the question thats being asked that you never answer the question that youre being asked in the first place me as well actually i did one of your tricks sue i mean wed done something i mean is it li liz went in and said and would you like to report tony on what youve discussed and i just spoke he never even got a got chance to say one other sentence im just doing a taking over me that didnt know what to do i wasnt gonna participate yeah well oh i know what i was gonna quickly go through the i was going through the training wasnt i so theres the yeah technology bit then there was managem was identified that m management training was needed for all line managers erm yes so theres a variety of things there careers librarians that was quite a good point but weve actually t got a group of professionals working within the service we need to make sure they have access to other professional librarians and staff development that would be mm appropriate to them rather than just appropriate to the careers service mm mm erm but the more general training er sort of across the board that came up for staff in general was certain things that are are bound to happen for example on course training will happen update on h e c g software negotiation skills train the trainers group work resources presentation skills interviewing skillsm marketing our guidance adult update for e os the with the unemployed employer work personnel skills recruitment and interviewing skills employer legislation update summaries of guidance careers guidance agreements management training business financial management supervisory skills supervision of probationers appraisal interviewing skills careers education and guidance for careers officers in equal opportunities i asked liz specifically to put on the list this one that i try trying to do with e os the group work one mm yes its being asked all the time because alan said it would be i know and er alan keeps saying you can do it but you have to wait to the next programme coming through and i specifically asked for liz to put it on now im not sure come under that you think i dont know in fact weve had a couple of meetings recently kevin with with erm the employment office looking at at their changing role yeah and certainly from the the first meeting that we had which is only a month ago that was one of the things one one of the outcomes yeah was that erm jane erm has put down that take place and your name and i said mm i would i would help mm if it was necessary mm so i did she do me a note to to raise that weve got a follow up meeting erm about this training i think its cos ive had er you might have had the west one to me again well not just recently but just er er a month ago saying is it still on is it still going to happen it it it yeah it minuted for yeah it was minuted for the have you got a date weve not no no alans not given me the go ahead really to to do i mean he sort of yeah said itd be for april you see next budget right yeah it was the two training aspects that came out of that meeting one was thats right it was all training in c v workshops and the other one was presentation skills and group work skills oh yes yes thats quite a good idea isnt it cos we have to yeah give that advice all the time mm th yeah well what we said yeah was we wanted yeah something you know good idea that if were going to get into helping people to draw up c vs then we need training in that area job search skills training yeah yeah well that yeah good thinking because it is its very very theres a handout there which we talked mm about an er and said thats one of the things we can do do th these are things that we need to look at yeah and if we can do it we need to be so that e e os need to be looking at how to help with interview okay mm mm techniques yeah er what you know how what to expect yeah erm use of computers er how so al help you filling in job search so these yeah are the sort of things yeah that also saying you yeah know wed like good training on those mm erm and in group sessions and also with e t you know training for work as well training for work as it yeah is at the moment er presentation skills yeah much wider role mm in so theres quite a lot sounds about right follow up meetings next friday a week today and ive written it in my diary so ill make sure i bring it up then can i just say that er ray phoned me up the other day and he said er would you be prepared to take part in probationers er regional probationary sort of training day er which is at coming up er in a few months time to give erm presentation skills er i part of what we were doing erm but just those o h ps that we did on that part and that was quite interesting mm erm so i said okay have to go along and sort that out he did mention to me now id forgotten until mm you mentioned it but he yeah had mentioned to me actually yeah it was purely just on that part because ray brian was doing other w other in fact group work skills mhm mm the other bit to to them and there was yeah a couple of sessions purely on the actual no public speaking thats right it was actually public speaking rather than yeah yeah have you worked with brian before i dunno his names so familiar see you see you bye hes alright right i didnt really think it was going to take me very long to go through that sorry but i mean it brought up a lot of things that we perhaps it did yeah needed to talk about anyway didnt it so wed already touched on havent we by taking yeah away stuff yeah right are we going to finish at half twelve mhm yeah sounds reasonable so if we try and tackle the staff appraisal at least yeah before lunch right no problems this sorted out staffing for the office diane yes right weve been postponing this discussion i know erm because weve not sort of felt er weve not fitted it into previous meetings just to sort of update on where were at with it ive been done and bills been done kevins been done but ive not given him anything back in writing yet which ive go to do erm next stage have you done diane or sylvia no have i arranged a day with sylvia but then i the day is set realized right we didnt have the yellow booklets so ah and ive not brought them with me theyre in my office sorry i said id bring them today didnt i yes and i but i might have to cancel it on what what deborahs said yeah why what does deborah cos theyve not been trained yet yeah and then she did keep speaking cos theyve not had a three hour training sessions out very strongly didnt she sorryth they whos they they were supposed to come back to the offices and do a three hour training mm training session with all staff remember well it was talked about but oh wouldnt be us cos we went to the yes yeah no we had to do it training yeah but weve got to do the training we were we were trained to train yes yes but what i meant is it doesnt stop us being no no no sylvia wasnt there cant be appraised then but i mean yeah no i yes to my next thing can i have a little plaster please oh what you done just a paper cut but ooh id go home if i were you not my office classification is stupid so all altered and all plasters the numbers are changed and oh no what are you telling me for have a bandage is okay i dont need a bandage are you allergic to plasters if theres not a little one there ive got a you see a thin one just a thin one ive got a little one do you want to do the hanky no thats alright cos ive got erm maybe we need some more do you want a dirty hanky wrap round no cos i hurt my finger the other day were keep anything here now no but technically oh i know technically you are allowed to keep them but in a centred box what plasters i know but where else do keepem know where they are cos the allergic reaction not allowed to well plasters are not part of a first aid box you should not so the only thing youve got is something just to wrap round oh i know thats about it useless but i mean they should come out of somebodys drawer under their own personal supply yeah same with paracetamol along with the paracetamol yeah if they have a reaction bottles and bottles its their own fault it hasnt come out of a first aid office yeah yeah well we unofficially have paracetamol in there but thats why as long as its not in that green box it doesnt they have been to check on us i mean i think all staff have their big bottles in their drawers somewhere yeah we did but a while ago health and safety yeah co couple of years of ago safety inspectors yeah well i dont know who put that box of plasters in there no i dont jackie husbands doing it im sure that well yes yes all be investigated yeah they can actually just turn up and say lets have a look at your box right if we can get back to the appraisal oh well take it out after erm husband got a job mm yes training to be a factoriesinspector oh right mm right yeah i ive got a i need to set a date with catherine an appraisal and then well be are you not looking forward to it i am not itll be good it was good wasnt it kevin actually i i i thought it was fun yeah its just that i dunno i mean the ones ive yeah so far had yeah got erm well we never got anywhere i never got anything back and it was just a total i was a guinea pig well we do get a positive f i think a i think actually who you haveem with like with sue i mean i was quite positive about this er i can understand you sort of just w who did you haveem with before my two best friends jeff and peter thats right yeah so theyre i dont i have a f you know theyre i dunno well i i mean i think i certainly feel positive based mm on the experience so far really mm and what im sorry i switched off a couple of minutes ago of of of the of the were talking about c e t what do you think no appraisal appraisal yes yes yes i found it useful yeah and you written your targets for me yet bill no ive started them though right ive started ive not written i know but ive started thinking about it okay well i have i have a problem with spending three hours training staff in the office i mean lets face it its not realistic kevin and bill and i have discussed this we dont think its realistic i mean whether we think its necessary or not is another matter yes t i cant see that happening everybodys supposed to have a go at how appraising somebody and being appraised so they can appreciate what the situation is well i mean i did those pilot appraisals mm here last year well yeah cos everybodys gone through it here yeah i mean yes we had quite a lot of pilot yeah in york what wed proposed and me what we were going to propose was that k when kevin bill and i met and we we talked about this we said lets prepare i volunteered actually to prepare a summary sheet yeah of the main points that that training would cover and that we would issue those summary sheets at a staff meeting and we would go through it at a staff meeting and that that probably that was as much as we could do yeah by way of ensuring staff knew what was going on and had something by way of training but mm managed it and skipton would they have had the three hour thing yes yes away from the office as well wasnt it night out i agree im was winding you up i mean that because deborah kept going on and on and on about this three hour thing didnt she all the time she kept coming back to it when you go and do your three hour training sessions didnt she well the point she was trying to make was that the it d the the appraisal interview would be so s so easy because the staff will know exactly what what to do you know so what be these sort of and what to expect and what queries and barriers that youre youre bringing out its going to be all so smooth because theyve had three hour training but as soon theyve had an appraisal then they will know what it involves yeah and because youre having the preappraisal thing yeah its to set it all in context they understand before they come thats right i mean thats like the really the training isnt it for them but surely if they got the yellow book and had we sent them off in in a room to actually read that book mm three hours mm t no mm but instead of try and fit it mm while theyre doing something yes else but give everybody an hour off mm their rota to go and read the yeah book somewhere quiet and as you saying a summary sheet and mm a quick half hours mm any questions that should be enough should be enough for anybody yeah you see my my point was id i mean i kept saying to her has this got to take place and she kept saying yes and i kept saying in every division and she kept saying yes so whatever we wed said to her she was coming back all the time wasnt she that this had got to take place cos only you mean shell be gunning for me then but because that i mean that b harrogate no shell be gunning for everybody else because only harrogate and skipton but we can say also that the were not new appraisals th weve been through the pilot mm i mean yeah we can use thats right that argument to mm to support i think for im just say but was it only those two that had done it or was it no scarboroughs not done it and whos northallerton well i asked for those i get there the impression that northallerton spend half of their time in staff meetings so id be surprised mm if theyd not done it we asked our employer our employment officersgroup yesterday mm and phyllis hadnt had the opportunity to discuss anything with a lot of careers officers meetings then oh right well definitely not employment staff because theyve not even managed to even shes not even managed to show it anybody mm well that makes me feel a a lot better yeah it made me feel better actually because i had the same impression as you anyway anyway when bill and kevin and i looked at how we could cope with appraisal in our division the numbers didnt work out as badly at least as i thought they were going to originally erm the way that we see it is that i would appraise kevin bill and cath initially and that oh this is just yorks isnt it and that bill appraise who are you going to appraise the careers offices sylvia and diane here right we actually said rosy as well but rosy lo probably have left selby yes by the time i get back to it yes right and i did charlotte eventually you could always do her first so that that doesnt thats a good idea cath well remember that i dont er i dont see any relevance in that because shes not you cant set targets for no her that im yes not going to be responsible for no youre right but bills going to do charlotte yeah when shes been here long enough yes but you dont do anybody until theyve be here for six months and you dont do any six twelve she down the other day didnt she no its six months alright and you dont i wasnt here kevin i missed it and you dont bring do anybody thats in er shes coming down next month c g part two so that eliminates a few people you see or temporary contracts or temporary contracts yeah well that that eliminates not that quite a few quite a lot at the moment but hopefully wont shortly so when we went through it kevin was going to do all of the careers officers in york but didnt need to do mary because shes part of the adult team and therefore jane and julie will have to sort her thank god for that wont happen to j wouldnt have to do norma because shes a probationer wouldnt have to do denise cos we dont know what her situations going to be not really worth it is she and that if cath did all of the clerical staff and then eventually monique and mary once they become in service long enough oh they probably are already arent they i think they are yeah yeah well mary and monique but that i kevin would stick with the careers officers cos it fits in very well with his team leader role with the careers offices in york so that i wouldnt get involved with careers officers id actually make a jump and that i would do the three wise monkeys and hilary the three wise monkeys they sit in a long line in york yeah we dont have to mention names the one thing that no you dont have to ive seen them does worry me and i dont think any provisions have been done for it and that is isobel right and i think it would be very useful for her to have an appraisal oh yeah i mean having great oh yeah difficulty in working out whether shes understanding what weve said now in the way of instructions until it comes back but youre down s to do her so what sort of provision do you mean cath taught her how to do write it down were supposed to do does she sign or not im not sure cos we could have somebody in to help thats all im thinking if she says yeah im sure you could get something from mm mm mm well thats why im asking what do i do social services mm but i dont think she is very good at signing i dont think its her main way of communicating shes quite good at lip reading itll just take you longer to do its a its its more you understanding because she i cant understand what she says to me no thats the trouble thats the embarrassing yeah thing i cant understand a word mm well you see as part of the appraisal thing if you get w w when weve done it so far weve got people to actually and i did myself one of the stages after the preliminary meeting is to complete a self assessment or to go through some self assess assessments self appraisal now certainly when i did it i wrote some notes which i then talked through with alan kevin wrote some notes which he then talked through with me now obviously if isobel did that she could write some notes in a form that was actually readable for you so that you could actually i mean i know the discussion would be more difficult but you would have quite a lot of information from her to go on i wonder whether it might be useful to get somebody in from social services side anyway to help to identify some other problems that im having yeah perhaps and how you might overcome them i think i think she will probably have an aw shes a very bright girl im sure shed have an awful lot to contribute mm yeah mm so but that might be one of the things that you need to look at i mean once sh she may have dif because of the difficulties in communicating with other staff and mm yourself that might be a target to overcome yeah and social services will be able to advise on that mm i mean there must mm be a social worker for the hearing impaired jackie should be able to recommend somebody yeah erm that that could come up come along to that meeting with isobels agreement erm or even to talk to isobel specifically abo about that and h how to approach yes something like this mm so that mm they you know they could talk together perhaps having been briefed beforehand and then maybe work out how to approach appraisal interview i mean its an issue that needs to be looked at anyway isnt it regardless of appraisal yeah yeah with anything yes cos then the spinoffs you know if we can get her to be able to communicate back to us mm its great erm its certainly the appraisal interview is a good opportunity to to address the issue of because communication is difficult mm shes not shes being underutilized in a sense yeah mm its not pulling it out just out of thin air thats right it its yeah i mean contacts mm yeah i mean i i i think maybe cath if we sit down and and talk that through beforehand i mean im obviously happy to sit down and talk through any of it beforehand anyway with you erm and you might want to do that formally you might a if you have premeetings with some of these people you might want to say that you are going to sit down and talk it through with me in advance ar and are they happy about that but i mean it we can talk things through in principle anyway just to think because you know until we build up mm more experience but i you know hopeful i know that th th th quite a large and high numbers but what we agreed was if we were working on the basis of something like on one person every six weeks mm which wasnt an unreasonable sort of target erm we would get through everybody we had to get through in a year other than the issue of isobel are you unhappy with that no i dont want to do it but i mean im not im certainly happier than i have been about it if mm thats any help i just want some help with these writing these forms and target setting yeah its easier once youve been done actually its easier once youve been done cos then you have an appreciation of whats to well i think you know yes i think youll feel a bit better once weve done you yeah really mm yeah i think because i i didnt really the things ive had two attempts at me and ive never had any feedback whatsoever all i did was spend my time tell telling them how they could do their job better mm mm you know so i mean so ive never had a its been a bad experience for me not a good one oh godi cant cope with the pressure and as far as in the appraisals i mean i found when i did the three s part staff and and i was it was that pilot and and i know mm and i dont dont know whether the forms were i dont think they were quite as complicated as as these but i found that ive got a if you want to borrow well ive got copies of them all its easier now to be honest yeah i mean i felt once i got going it just seemed to flow naturally mm and and it was and even deciding on where the training needs were and writing them down and and setting targets it i dont know it just seemed to happen erm difficult at all the form complete is much easier than the the is it form you had to that you had to oh right last time mm as mm an individual you mm know what your needs are yeah yeah its much more clearer yeah than the previous yeah yeah one mm yeah i think the other thing is its very much an appraisal of the working relationship between the appraiser and the appraisee the way were doing it its not entirely focused on the appraisee you know cos i think mm youre talking as much a about y its reflecting on you as the line manager how much are you communicating with this mm person mm what are you actually yeah failing to do thats making this persons job more difficult mhm should you be giving them more support should you be recognizing this need or this skill or this strength or whatever that youre mm not mm and its very much a two way thing yeah in fact in some ways i feel i almost got more out of appraising kevin and bill than i did out of alan appraising mm me and i almost sort of mm mm you know it i its mm so twoway yeah yes its a lovely way of understanding how are your staff are feeling and getting on mm yeah you know communication right wise yeah at the end of it i you know i felt mm well wh when i did the c os and the pilot yeah i felt as though i understood their picture and you do talk about things that you dont normally c os are probably more likely to open up and talk arent they than yeah but even so even a bit of opening up and people like that yeah but even a bit you see youre going to have all the extracting later on dont say its a bad thing yeah but some people like to talk if he said that careers officers have verbal diarrhoea dont theythe other extreme arent they lets be fair yeah but if its a structured discussion because theyve yes done yes some preparation so its what they want to talk about anyway yeah if it mm doesnt if it last half an hour theyre not coming into it cold this is this is where deborah will then go back this is comes into your three hour training so you wont have this problem cos theyll all have been theyll all know that theyre just talking about certain things but they will because thats what youll have agreed in your preparation meeting youve got to prepare yeah youve got to prepare the premeeting i think is really quite important mm yeah you know but we almost got down to saying the other day that probably need to have an action plan or a structure for the premeeting as well youve go to know in your mind what youre going to talk about i think yeah thats more or less what she was yeah saying the mental picture but once weve been through once weve had our premeeting mm itll take all the mystery out of it actually it will i i mean mm th ten minutes is all it takes youd be surprised you can just that that was one of the pitfalls she was saying wasnt it that if you dont talk frequently to your staff on an informal basis then there will be a mystery regarding appraisal mm because it it seems as if its a mystery and deborah does talk frequently to w regulations does she she was training sue that said one of the pitfalls disciplines was infrequent er informal discussions with your er mm with your staff so she just delegates the whole lot i just i talk to often to some of them and not enough to others to others and i dont control that never darken my door oh yeah mentioning no names i mean we have no choice really some of these things have to happen you know it has to be done well thats i mean thats what it boils down to thats right is going to happen its a question of whether we g go for three hourstraining we i think were agreeing that some sort of preliminary training is going to come forward but not necessary three hours yeah i dont see how they can definitely say anyway this is going to take no guarantee lack of training yeah exactly i feel that people like josie you know think theyre quite easy what you want yes yes but im just saying and if it ends up being a fairly low key thing i it doesnt matter with other people no itll be mm mm i me going to be a significant event well it extremes while thats right yeah whoever i mean its going to be a days job isnt it mavis if she comes with notes like that yeah well if i dont talk them all through five times theres something wrong yeah but if youre int limited to only three subjects surely she no she aint no theres no theres no way mavisll just talk about three subjects no thats negotia i i thought you were supposed to no not at all its negotiable thats negotiabletalk about what its true actually yeah i think you i think what its its just that most people have got m quite a lot so its a limiting factor so you want to limit it i think you need to set a time actually the targets have been limited to three cath around three three or four yeah three or four yeah thought that the work areas were s to supposed to limit them because when you do the one next year in a years time then you bring on board two more topics other areas and then the year after that two more topics well thats going to depend on is a persons duties isnt it is that yeah i mean if if if josies main role is is is is say that then wordprocessing and and and typing alright yeah says its target then then really that thats an area that youve got to concentrate on cos mm okay shes got some time on reception as relief but the majority of work is n is not that varied is it mm is it i would say that on reception is the one that probably needs more support let her down all the rest of it yeah in which case in which case thats your one of your motivations in talking to her mm say youll actually negotiate that in in the erm preliminary meeting mm and you sort of say do you think it would be useful if we talked about reception because thats something y youre not doing quite as frequently but its obviously it must be difficult for you to fit in to that because youre not doing it all the time do you think it would be useful if we talked about that and to be honest mm if she doesnt want to talk about that then you yes i think she would do you know i think she would do but thats the sort of negotiation i think she has to be one of the easiest ones to do i mean like with kevin and bill we negotiated but even that we wouldnt talk about their professional work as a careers officer mm because thats really in a you know was far less appropriate yeah mm we actually talked about the difficulties that it causes combining them both of combining the two things mm mm but we actually talked about things at an appropriate level now with careers officers obviously thatll sort of come into it mm more i found it invaluable last time i was doing i b you know if if you say to somebody y you know come beforehand with what youre doing well what where the difficulties are what the obstacles are and they came and you know i find it difficult here here and here i mean that was really valuable to understand that cos ian thought oh yeah thats something that we really have to address you know yeah because if someone else says that and then all of a sudden i didnt know this and now i know it a y y its really i mm i felt i got a lot out of it yeah even though initially i thought cor all this time where are we going to find it from thats the two way mm thing you see mm i would a the difficulty is the perception of the person that kevin appraised would be well i told kevin about this and and nothings happened but in fact come in kevins perception has been increased and he and he does have a better understanding of that persons role even though it might not be blatantly obvious to them that there theres been an improvement in communications i know its what happens next afterwards its difficulty yeah difficulty in getting back but the good thing about followup is these targets something very tangible mm mm to follow up on i mean i know in about four monthstime ive got a meeting in my diary with alan that were reviewing what progress ive made in the targets that ive set myself thats good thats good mm yeah and ive not looked at them since i wrote them but you know that you have to you know you cant just but i know ive got to ignore it and that you have to work on it and you have to yeah sort of really go along with the process which is good mm so what sort of targets do you see yourself setting i dont know i mean what wh we didnt really what what are we talking about increasing the amount of interview you get through in a day i mean what no certain obstacles and areas where you feel youre not er giving you know you dont feel as though youre doing it the best for whatever reason mm you may set that as a target to try and work at it this way to overcome that or to do it better yes say if youre looking at an e o that feels that theyre really happy with the client group and things like that thats fine but for some reason they feel that theyre not as hot on employer work or something like that so one of the targets might be to get them more used to dealing with employers is to go out and see more and to set time mm aside yeah for them to be able to that so a lot of a lot of the problems with some of the areas of the work is because you do it so infrequent its not that you cant do it its that you feel mm mm incapable of doing it mm mm its this fear insecurity when you when have to do it yeah when you have to do it right yeah so one of the ways to overcome that is to set yourself a target to do more mm so that you become more yeah familiar with it mm theres other thats right theres other things you can do though like for example i mean once youve identified training the target yes its if any training comes up to do with work with employers you as a line manager know thats your person thats got to yeah get on that training thats the one thats the prioritized yes cos you have to negotiate but also an another target would be to identify lets say a careers officer or a more experienced e o or just a colleague it doesnt have to be someone thats m just they may say someone thats more confident to go arrange arrange to go out on an employer visit mm mm with them during the next two mm months i see you see the way that they have and that you know fulfil a target yeah yeah youre building steps towards actually meeting the need that youve identified mm i mean my targets were i can only remember two of them offhand ill perhaps remember the third one as i talk one of them was to tackle the staff meeting problem in york erm and that you know i wrote to i i discussed that with alan as a problem but then i took it away with the pro forma that says and you now the target pro formas got columns youve got to fill in and i mm just i thought mm it through myself then i met up with alan and and he read though it and challenged me on a few things and we changed one or two bits but ive got my sort of target set out and the other one was to strengthen the divisional management team and by that i was looking at er things like discussing with alan that i felt we were un under had had less management time than we should so ive already begun to fulfil some of those things and and write down on the target sheet wh it must have been hard yeah i didnt find it particularly hard actually so how can you in you know to increase the only way you can do it is by pleading so why do you fill in all the rest of them silly columns in no no it isnt the only way you can do it its its by actually looking at well i in bill and kevins appraisal i actually tackled it through their appraisal because we discussed in quite a lot of depth erm what their workload and ways in which they could change their workload mm to enable them to have more management time like were looking at trying to get them to reduce their work their case loads mm school case load work mm with with both of you we talked a lot about delegation and things that you were doing that maybe you shouldnt be doing erm mm yeah i think ive just got a mental block about writing them it certainly doesnt come easy until youve got a bit of practice in it but have yours i didnt find it as hard as i thought have this discussion after youve had yeah yeah yours mm and then if your st mm youll find that quite a lot of what youre saying is then seen mm and you can see that yeah its not a major problem i mean was quite keen mm you say that she wouldnt she certainly wouldnt mind doing a followup document and yeah and target setting yeah yes she did and i think that would be quite useful for people i think a lot of its fear of the unknown though until youve done it yeah exactly yeah it is exactly yeah its fear of the unknown once youve done about five youll be alright and its fear of the of the thing as well isnt it yeah i think thats the other thing i mean mm we were easy enough to say right lets well we just dont get i i it the time mm if youre gonna well youve got to withdraw that time youve yeah gotta make sure it happens havent yeah you if youve got to do this youve got mm to do it right otherwise its well thats right thats right im gonna have to do it yeah im gonna have to do it yeah it it yeah it may be one of the ways th that to get together and communicate that because its set down as target youve got to do it so you will you will set the time aside where its easy enough to mhm say oh well well do it a week on friday and that week on friday never comes you you can set as your tar as one of your targets to er you know just t t to sort of make it in smaller steps that you will have appraised two of your staff in th in mm the next six mm months mm and you you know you could almost use the appraisal as an as an area that you wanted to concentrate mm yeah its not its not me its the ones that youre seeing that are target setting for yeah you feeling happy enough with the target setting to get acro yes yes i think thats a good point actually and that maybe target setting is sort of a training that we ought to do with all staff i mean and i dont know how much of that comes into this magic three hours you know if part of that was target exactly relating well it was yeah it was actually was it w was yeah it was b practising being an appraisee and an appraiser yeah and setting each er an other targets targets i dont remember doing much of that on the day thing well we did didnt we cos satem yeah all ah yes you did cos i was with the actually mine was quite a good oh yes group i got this is er teresa and liz were the three of us that were obviously we didnt he can get a third when we can only get when there were only two of us because there werent enough enough threes to go round and i mean yeah so i must admit mm i must admit that was quite good cos shed got liz who was mm e she was used to putting ideas forward as well i think teresa felt very much as well that she could have done with more training on target setting and things like that it it depends on what youve done before as well this smart thing is really useful for target setting to bear that yes in mind yeah yeah and you know you go back over what youve written and say is it specific can how can i measure it is it really you know realistic can i actually yeah achieve it mm mm is it actually gonna help me do my job better mm and have i put a timescale on it and if youve done all of those things mm then youve got a really good target yeah cos if its not achievable its pointless setting it thats right in the first place isnt it yeah if any of those things fall down you know that thats right mm yeah yeah thats thats a very yeah i think thats really the key mm to to target yeah setting and at least youve got the questions what what do i need to do and who who can help me how will i know when ive done it how long will i allow myself to achieve it who ne who else needs to know about it theyre the sort of things that youve got to know answer those questions yeah as you put the target forward yeah another thing that did come up at that training day the other day was that we all need a a a anybody thats going to do any sort of appraising will need to know what the erm training programme is yeah for next year cos if somebody asks for a specific training mm right mm mm you say oh yes you can have it and then you look on the training and its not there i know no i know thats yeah thats right er then thats a problem i had that problem last time its a bit of a chicken and egg thing really yeah mm because we had a long discussion about training needs audits and all this sort of thing whe whether alan should write out and ask everybody and we said oh no people have done that ad nauseam and theyll only write back and say well ive done this before and youve still never listened to me mm and we thought we knew enough about at the moment there are still a lot of needs that people had already raised that had not been addressed so once alan gets his er i yeah think after our meeting next friday hell he will issue a dr a programme yeah so people will have that by the time you get yeah round to doing individual yeah staff youve got to look at the other positive thing as well though that if it comes out as a target and there are specific training needs there throughout the mm county you know say if youve got a number of e o saying well i would like training in this yes even if you have to say to them well im thats right sorry its not available at the moment its highlighting what everybody is i think what alan will probably do thats right i think probably yes yeah yeah in about six monthstime yes what alan intends to do is write to all line managers and ask them to go back and review their appraisal erm documents for every member of staff theyve appraised erm and write a summary of all of the training training needs needs that have mm cropped yeah up because even if somebody said i would like that training if its not available you cant just turn around and say well tough its not available you cant mm have it mm youve got to note that this training you would like this training thats right unfortunately its not available at the present time at the moment yeah but well thats what i did wasnt it when when i did those yes appraisals last year yeah mm we still didnt get yes said i i will put forward yes and but we still didnt get it but yes you di you did put it forward no thats right i i think i think the other thing is that if there is a need thats thats quite common erm you know talking amongst ourselves i think sometimes were gonna have t just do more within the division you know i i yeah a something ive realized recently is that because ive sort of in a sense the c s m t side of things that i because thats a big area for me i tend to think county wide about everything mm that i do mm and i think thats right but it means that things are more difficult to achieve in a lot of ways i think i ought to start thinking well never mind if everywhere else isnt doing it lets yeah just get it right ourselves here first mm yeah and i think you know that that if th that we have got the skills between us to actually tackle some issues locally mm as long as we can get the staff together to do it mm and that we can try and meet some training needs locally oh im sure we could and particularly things like linking people up with other members of staff mhm you know getting employment officers to go on a visit with each other or with careers officers or whatever and meeting training needs on an individual basis yeah rather than having to get people together in a yeah central venue every time yeah and seeing training only in that light really yeah a thing that ive heard from a few directions recently is erm the thought of work shadowing yes actually going along with a careers officer yeah for a whole day and the careers officer yeah yeah a whole day thats part of alans new induction programme thats quite a nice idea isnt yeah yeah you know try for a better underst total understanding of mm of each of us needs mm yes yeah thats nice i like that i i think i think that one of the major employment office because yeah they feel that c os dont dont understand them and theyre probably mm i think that wont admit it but they probably dont know all mm that there is to know about theres a lot more mystery about what the careers officers do cos they dont do it in front of the noses of the employment officers i i think thats but thats a good its a form of training that should yeah be easy to organize thats right yeah yeah mm and i said this the other day thats yeah one of the major problems people dont understand the other persons role mm so they dont say you know it its like in york youll have it worse than somewhere like here cos we can see the careers officers running around mhm yes thats right so well say so well say to them do you want a hand and they will also see yeah the c os may actually be working for a week or two and never see an e o yeah but they can they can yeah also see that sometimes even if we wanted to help them mm i the yeah logistics of it are just yeah impossible yeah whereas you dont have that youll probably have the careers officers walking in when your e os are having a cup of coffee and they thinkwell they do sod all mm and then youll walk into the careers officers when they come in from school and they go ah yeah and the e os walk in and they think thats right they do sod all yeah so youve got this thing its true that nobody understands what the other persons role is absolutely yeah yeah come in and that thats the most awkward yeah trouble is once you and when youre very busy dont worry and you its quite easy to switch your mind on you know would it become insular to your own needs kevin dont you yeah either either either sort of feel that the other is not as busy as they are exactly ive and its the last student we had in er in york mm i had difficulty in fitting in alison any time to talk to her mm and she ended up spending it was the best part of the day with me and she came with me to a couple of meetings i went to ah right thats good and it was more like shadowing me yeah mm and i thought at the time oh id not done anything about it mm i think ill say to yourself and to bill students in future nice idea that ill identify a day mm or a co or a half day mm that the student can spend with me and ill thats great try and talk to them in you know in the car or whatever and yeah in between yeah but theyd actually get a yeah much better view yeahi like that and its not taking you as much time either no thats right no manage to get on with your work and to some extent i think we can do that with new new in fact staff as well im wondering whether we ought to do that with trainees anyway in yeah while theyre just you know whatever do a bit more whatever happens today youre with that person yeah yeah and similarly jackie you reckon mm you know who mm it must she gets a lot of demand doesnt she really yeah so i ask an e o a c o jackie and all the different sort of sorts me of people in the office to do to offer me one day for work shadowing a yeah student yeah and they just work shadow for two weeks yeah and bingo mm interesting that isnt it yeah well yeah oh because if youve got somebody again like you say to er some of the students that say can we come in on some of your interviews mm thats fine if you say yes but your client comes in you forget all about joe bloggs sat at the back yeah mm mm and before you realize it youre halfway through your interview and you think oh god yeah whereas if theyre with you mm mm and they and they watch you through lunch they mm they watch you writing up they watch you doing all the other discussions and stuff and they just sort of go with you yeah as opposed to going in for just the interviews thats right mm actually that would be a better representation of what its like to be the a i was going to say theyd probably get a more realistic yes they would and i think its less yeah demanding on on mm the people because you know normally if a student comes to see me i sit down and have an hour and halfs discussion mm with them mm mm which is not perhaps a very good use of time the only trouble is when youre doing your administration and some days you know y you may have to really get stuck in yeah and what are they gonna do just sit and watch you yeah writing mm you feel thats right yeah youve got to pick your day that the day you choose yeah got to be more active yeah

secretes mucous fluquières fluquières is a commune it is found in the region picardie in the aisne department in the north of france schönengrund schönengrund is a municipality in appenzell ausserrhoden in switzerland number twenty two you er you need to tell the assembly thank you one one four nine moderator is it possible or legal at all to insert a completely new twenty two simply in light of the the vote that weve just been held id like simply to ask the assembly to simply reaffirm that we are indeed a christian church a christian trinitarian church to father son and holy ghost the gods whom we adore why do we sing this every time if there are a number of members in this assembly who are no longer able to completely agree with such a sentiment moderator i move that the mr mr i think its implicit in our own nature and in our own character and a known fact that we are constituted here as a general assembly and we indeed ascribe to that and i dont think we need to affirm it on a lower level of what is in fact the very standard of our existence here er in a general assembly i can assure you of that number twenty two approved number twenty three thank you yes bishop please come forward im delighted to welcome you im sure youll be at home with one accord being sung on sunday night one two eight nine i have arrived i have been given a number by the church of scotland i might suggest that you too have arrived i have answered your roll call and indeed its a sign of the times that i speak not with a mitre metaphorically upon my head but perhaps the glengarry of the convenorship of the central council of acts and therefore i am in part your servant here and it really is to to promote a couple of the initiatives of your instrument that i stand here first of all i would like to bring to your attention the regional ecumenical teams at every stage of the interchurch process we were hearing voices saying to us it is not sufficient that there should be fellowship agreement companionship cooperation at the highest levels but it had to be found at every level it had to be found at grass roots level and the meeting of the actscentral council has recently had a report from its local and regional unity er committee proposing that a network of regional ecumenical teams should be established throughout scotland to further the cooperation and joint commitment of congregations and church members in each area this proposal was enthusiastically approved by the central council of acts and has been well received by member churches which are appointing local representatives for each of the forty six areas these areas as you might recognize are the presbytery areas of scotland as these areas seem to be most closely allied to natural and civic boundaries now the presbyterian church as the church of scotland enjoys a unique place in scottish life and its structures it has a privileged place but i would suggest to you it has also therefore a number of responsibilities and one i would suggest in this case is to try and ensure that these local regional teams are in place i think it would be most appropriate for the local representatives of the church of scotland since the areas are presbyteries to take the initiative or to give that encouragement without which these local teams will not find a place the second thing that i would like to recommend to you on behalf of the instrument acts is the scottish christian gathering which will take place this year from friday the twenty sixth of june to sunday the twenty eighth of june at saint andrews college it is according to the book which is our sort of bible on the matter for celebration and vision for fellowship exploration and discernment of opportunities and tasks with broad participation from all member churches and others to amplify and strengthen the whole movement of acts you will notice it is a yellow card also er it is somewhat larger than the other one which was flaunted earlier before us and the good news is that youve got each one of you a copy of this in your cubbyholes could i just conclude moderator by saying that those who are engaged in acts the churches which are participating members of this action of churches together in scotland are engaged in a journey together the imaginations of each church and indeed s of the several members perhaps shape differently the goal that lies ahead but we must be sure that however shaped in our imagination that goal is it must be inspired by our lords own will for his church praying that his disciples would be one as he and the father are one and it seems to me that that oneness that that unity is pneumatic in character it is based on the holy spirit and it is for us surely to open ourselves without prejudice to the shape that it will take in the future i think we can say that if it is pneumatic in character the shape will be organic for the moment we move forward believing that we are going in a direction to which we have already been prompted and in the confidence that the holy spirit is working among us thank you im delighted bishop you took the opportunity to so address us and it underlines our benefit in being able to have our delegates participate in our debates and discussions thank you for your contribution i put to the assembly deliverance number twenty three approved deliverance number twenty four thank you three three five i am s one that has just been recently appointed to one of these er regional ecumenical teams and at a meeting that was held for the three presbytery areas in the sort of west coast of scotland around the greenoch area erm it was it became apparent that all these people who are being appointed er through their their churches are in the main clergy and the convenor of the local committee himself a ruling elder of the church of scotland expressed concern about this that there is no real er and i would just put it to the to the assembly there is there is no need for these members to be members of the clergy in fact it would be good if presbyteries remembered when making a nomination eh that it er it neednt be it could be a a an elder or indeed er a lay person holding no particular office within the church that would sustain what eh bishop has just referred to the grass roots of of this movement twenty four approved then thank you twenty five local involvement number twenty six twenty seven yes reverend eleven twenty six ive read number twenty seven says draw attention to the possibilities for church members to take part in overseas and exchange visits and i would simply like to do that yesterday a minister from an urban priority area er while er welcoming the thought of a an urban priority area fund or urban and rural priority area fund said that people were at least as important as money in many situations none of us can doubt the economic plight of many of the countries where our mission partners work but the relationship of people is every bit as important and visits play a large part in that a small group er from my own parish went to india two and a half years ago to visit our missionary partner she had visited us many times over a nu number of years and said it was our turn to visit her and we just laughed us go to darjeeling but eventually she persuaded us she meant it and we went and it was an invaluable experience meeting not only our missionary partner but the people among whom she lives and and works and has done for many years the warmth of the welcome from the girls in the school hostel would have gladdened anyones heart they were not well off and they didnt welcome us because we had brought gifts they simply welcomed us because we had had the interest to go and see them and talk to them we enjoyed their music and shared their worship and we came back changed and enriched and i commend number twenty seven to everyones attention thank you moderator number twenty seven approved thank you number twenty eight approved ive got a new number twenty nine and youll find that on the pale blue papers page number sixty five the first notice of i put number twenty nine to the general assembly is that approved number thirty approved number thirty one approved the deliverance as a whole and as amended approved now before we move further id like to take this opportunity of expressing on your behalf our thanks to hugh here for the service that hes rendered our church to this point in time but particularly as the convenor of the board of world mission and unity hugh youve been minister of the parish of inverleith here in edinburgh for the past seventeen years and i understand you were one of the very first vice convenors of the board when it was set up eight years ago having already served the church on the former interchurch relations committee you were born in india on the mission field and through your familys experience and your own youve brought to the convenorship of the board a great personal interest in the overseas church and in international affairs for several years here in edinburgh you have been the presbyterys world mission and unity convenor and then you became the convenor of the boards local involvement committee which links our congregations to people who work overseas in churches there with whom they serve as the convenor of the board since nineteen eighty eight you have visited the european work of the board in rotterdam in paris in budapest and in prague also in israel and egypt and you have represented the board at meetings of the world alliance of reformed churches hugh you have shown throughout all of your work a deep concern for the people working abroad for our partner churches and for our ecumenical relations and the need to keep these matters to the fore of the church and also of our country hugh you and i share the gift of a very unusual christian name i understand its the only way in which these letters are arranged in the anglosaxon language and is often used as an example of such its a very difficult name at times to live up to im sure because the word hugh literally means mind or soul and it is important that we seek indeed to live up to what our names mean you have certainly applied your mind to the work of the board and you have encouraged its vision and its direction through your intellectual gifts and perceptions and insights and youve also brought your soul to bear on the work of the board and the work of the church within the assembly council i personally valued your contributions the very courteous and thoughtful way in which you presented these and the courage with which you expressed at times the stand that you had to take for the interest of the board and yet above that and beyond that what you were seeking to do was not just to serve the board of world mission and unity it was to serve what you believed was the good and right for the church of god which you have sought to serve and to support and to take further for that contribution and for that depth of spirituality within yourself which you have brought to bear for the benefit of the work of this board and for that of our whole church we want to thank you very much indeed this morning im delighted and im sure youll be delighted to hear the advice of the business convenor that we suspend at this point in time and we we recons we we we we come back to continue our meeting at two oclock this afternoon we adjourn until two oclock

interpolation in many domains of science measurements are done if these measurements are drawn in a graph they will be shown as simple unconnected points such data are called data points or discrete handling and analysis of the data is easier if it can be described using a continuous function or a line connecting the discrete data point together in order to do this the line between two measurements or data points need to be created this process of connecting the data points together with a line called interpolation there are different ways to invent the data each method has its benefits and drawbacks the simplest method is drawing a straight line between two data points which is not very accurate very often polynomials are used to create a more accurate representation even if some of the data is wrong in many cases the results of this interpolation are usable either as a replacement for missing data points or as a tool to help understand more complicated data interpolation tries to find the values between two known points of data it is not to be confused with extrapolation which is a similar process that tries to find data points at the edge or outside the currently defined points uses the primary use of interpolation is to help users be they scientists photographers engineers or mathematicians determine what data might exist outside of their collected data outside the domain of mathematics interpolation is frequently used to scale images and to convert the sampling rate of digital signals in the domain of science a scientist may need to use a computer to calculate a complicated function however if that function takes a very long time to compute it may make her experiments difficult or impossible to run properly so she might use interpolation to create a slightly less complicated version of her function which takes less computational time and energy to run this interpolated function should achieve the same results as the more complex function but will make some errors or lose some detail as compared to the original function however the reduced time and cost of running the interpolated function may make this tradeoff worthwhile when an image is made larger the existing pixels cannot simply be stretched as you might stretch a rubber band instead new pixels must be created in order toguesswhat these pixels should look like the software that enlarges the image uses interpolation the software first spreads out the existing pixels into the new image size leaving many gaps and spaces then it examines the existing data the original pixels and then creates a function that describes the missing data the new pixels to create a new data set the enlarged image sometimes the program does a poor job and the resulting image is blurry or wrong in places these are called interpolation errors the software did not correctly guess what the data should be but overall the image will look similar this is an example of the risks and benefits of interpolation the user can see new data but that data may not be perfect further reading more about interpolation in graphics and photography nitrogen acid nitrogen acids are acids containing nitrogen burbure burbure is a commune it is found in the region nordpasdecalais in the pasdecalais department in the north of france le hohwald le hohwald is a commune it is in grand est in the basrhin department in northeast france césarvilledossainville césarvilledossainville is a french village in thedépartementof loiret and therégionof centre
