Summary

Planet Normal goes back to its roots and speaks to... a normal person. This week it’s brave district nurse and Planet Normal listener, Holly, who tells Telegraph columnists, Allison Pearson and Liam Halligan about the horrors of treatments delayed over the coronavirus crisis: a devastating move she thinks will cause more deaths than the pandemic itself. Plus, she reveals how care homes were “bullied” into taking patients with suspected Covid-19 and why some health workers used the pandemic as an excuse to stay home. Also on the podcast: Allison and Liam reflect on Boris Johnson’s tumultuous first year as PM, the real reason teachers were among the public sector workers to receive a pay rise, and why former Speaker of the Commons, John Bercow, won’t be invited on the show anytime soon.Telegraph subscribers can listen to Holly’s full interview: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2020/07/23/people-treatable-cancers-will-die-due-government-scaremongering/Read The Sunday Telegraph interview with Boris Johnson: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2020/07/18/boris-johnson-exclusive-interview-will-not-need-another-national/Read more from Allison: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/authors/allison-pearson/Read more from Liam: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/authors/liam-halligan/Do you need some help subscribing or reviewing?

Conscious Philippa Forrester ‘No one can do everything, but everyone can do something.’ Sylvia Earle, Goddess of Ocean Conservation.Welcome to Conscious.  I wanted to make this podcast so that we could, in the face of a tidal wave of environmental bad news, chat to the unsung heroes, normal everyday people with one thing in common - making change happen and inspiring us in the process. Whether it’s growing their own food, running a sustainable hotel, helping us decide which foods to put on our plate or make-up to slap on our face, or the ins and outs of heating our homes and transporting ourselves without polluting the planet, we will be meeting people from all walks of life who have one thing in common - they are all conscious of the need to change the way we think and the things we do and they have some great ideas. We’ll rampage through the trials, tribulations and ideals of what it really means to live a life conscious of the affects we are having on our planet.Please subscri Better Than Ever Health Coach Institute We are here to question how we do life cause the normal rules no longer apply. After coaching over 10,000 clients and students from 30 countries in the past 10 years, Health Coach Institute is proud to be pioneering the new generation of health coaches who are changing the consciousness of the planet. Whim of the Wild Nick MacDonald History is full of stories of influential leaders, brave soldiers, and society changing movements. These moments are crucially important to the modern state of civilization, but none of them matter to the Earth and the natural forces of the universe. Normal processes of the planet and her systems go on as though nothing is different, and we dub these events "catastrophes" when people happen to be in the way.In Whim of the Wild, we take a deep dive into the worst cases of nature's indifference that humanity has ever been caught in the middle of. Learn about the history of the region, the people who live there, the science of the event, and the impact that lasts for generations.
