The Hard Shoulder Highlights

Should we have a Minister for Loneliness?

A lot of people have been in touch with the show since yesterday, when Kieran spoke to John, a listener, about his experience of the male friendship recession. What can we do on a societal level to tackle the problem of loneliness? Do we need a new Minister to address the problem? That’s the call from Pauline O’Reilly, Green Party Senator, who joins Kieran, as well as Seema Kennedy, Former Conservative MP and Former Co-Chair of the Jo Cox Commission on Loneliness, to discuss.
