Heard it through the great vine Recently celebrating 30 years at the BBC, broadcaster and TV presenter Jeremy Vine talks up the modern era of ‘I-power’, and how as individuals we hold more sway than at any time in the past. “I think we are a great nation for radio, for argument, for discussion, for culture… possibly the best in the world. I think there’s something about being British. Take, for example, the twitter account called Very British Problems - it’s hilarious. “I love the British humour; I love the fact if I say ‘Bruce Forsyth’ or some such to someone they have immediately got a whole catalogue of memories going back years. I love that. “I have put on air over 30,000 phone calls across 18 years of my lunchtime show and have learned a lot over the years. I’ve learned
about all sorts of things, all sorts of places and people. “I think what has dawned on me most though is the fact we are now firmly in an era of ‘i-power’, as I term it. The concept is that lived experience now holds a greater sway over so-called ‘expertise’ – and has been at the centre of some huge shifts in politics and society over the last couple of years. “It’s a new idea in the sense it has been accelerated by social media, but in reality it has been at the heart of human nature going back centuries. I-power is tremendously strong, and it’s everywhere.”

Chosen C h ar i t y
Engaging new drain art project highlights the impact of littering on the environment.
A colourful new art project has been launched in Emsworth, Hampshire, targeting littering on our streets. Ten new pieces of art based on designs by local schoolchildren are being installed on pavements next to road drains to highlight the link between littering in our towns and plastic pollution in our rivers, harbours and wider seas. The project has been enabled by local Hampshire charity the Final Straw Foundation. The charity’s founder, Bianca Carr, explains, “Back in early 2020, we decided that we would love to install art to highlight the way that litter and other pollutants can be washed with rainwater down the road drains on our streets
and end up in the sea. We ran a competition open to local schoolchildren to create some beautiful designs that we could use as a base for the drain murals. We chose around 15 beautiful and colourful designs that a local artist would then paint onto our local streets.”
“It’s so important that we all protect our delicate ecosystems, and these artworks will help drive that message home,” The team at the Final Straw Foundation hope this project will bring a bit of fun and colour to the local area’s pavements and deliver a vital message. Bianca continues, “It’s so important that we all protect our delicate ecosystems, and these artworks will help drive that message home, and we hope it will make a difference to the levels of littering locally. The message really applies not just to drains but to all litter on our streets. It’s so easy for it to blow around and end up in our countryside as well as our waters - fingers crossed these murals remind people to value and take care of our wonderful planet!”. You can find out more about the drain art project here: https://finalstrawfoundation. org/projects-and-activities/drain-art-project/
