    For Distribution to CPs THE LEVESON INQUIRY INTO THE CULTURES, PRACTICES AND ETHICS OE THE PRESS WITNESS STATEMENT OE JAMES HANNING I, JAMES HANNING of Independent Print Limited, 2 Derry Street, London, W8 SHF, WILL SAY; My name is James Hanning. I am deputy editor of the Independent on Sunday and, with Francis Elliott of The Times, co-author of a biography of David Cameron. In the course of co-writing and updating our book we spoke to a large number of people, but equally I am very conscious that I, at least, dipped into areas in which I can claim very little specialist knowledge, so I would emphasise that in several respects there are a great many people better placed to comment and much of what follows is impressionistic. I hope that what follows is germane to some of the relationships that Lord Justice Leveson has asked witnesses to discuss. I hesitate to try to draw a broader picture, but I hope that some conclusions about the disproportionate influence of a particular sector of the media can be drawn from my experience. My interest in the area under discussion in the Third Module stems from two topics. One is in David Cameron, on whose biography we began work in late 2005, soon after Cameron became Tory leader. The second is an interest in phone hacking at the News of the World. Tory relations with Murdoch Since early 2007, the Conservative leadership has been extremely keen to ingratiate itself with the Murdoch empire. It is striking how it had become axiomatic that the support of the Murdoch papers was essential for winning a general election.

  • 'Therapeutic Entrepreneurialism' for Evidence and Expertise in the Education Politics of Wellbeing
    Centre for Wellbeing in Public Policy. CWiPP Working Paper Series No.9 THE IMPLICATIONS OF ‘THERAPEUTIC ENTREPRENEURIALISM’ FOR EVIDENCE AND EXPERTISE IN THE EDUCATION POLITICS OF WELLBEING Kathryn Ecclestone School of Education, University of Sheffield [email protected] ABSTRACT Enthusiastic policy rhetoric and academic activity around ‘wellbeing’ obscure the ways in which particular meanings gain traction in a particular political and socio- cultural context. Focusing on three educational policy texts, this paper explores the ways in which the policy trajectory from text to practice is dominated by a narrow interpretation of wellbeing-as-mental health/character that generates ‘therapeutic entrepreneurialism’. I argue that these developments produce, and are fuelled by, dubious claims makers, evidence and expertise and generate a powerful, self- referential consensus for a psycho-emotional, skills-based approach that marginalises richer philosophical, sociological and historical understandings of wellbeing. I conclude with some thoughts on what educationally-meaningful approaches to developing wellbeing might comprise. This paper is an early version of a chapter forthcoming in Bache, I. and Scott, K. (eds.) The Politics of Wellbeing: Theory, Policy and Practice, Palgrave Macmillan INTRODUCTION Encompassing very diverse interests and goals in areas such as economics, the environment, welfare and education, a view that citizens’ social and economic wellbeing should be a prominent political aspiration has gained strong traction amongst policy makers, academics, the public and the media in Britain and other countries (Bache and Scott, forthcoming). There have been corresponding studies of the relationship between contemporary policy applications of wellbeing and earlier philosophical traditions and the social, psychological and economic complexities that make wellbeing a ‘wicked’ problem (e.g.
