This morning I was joined by Samuel, one of the Yorkshire Blade Runners, for a wide-ranging conversation about the group’s campaign against what they describe as a growing surveillance and control infrastructure on Britain’s streets. We talked through what the Blade Runners do, why Samuel believes these roadside devices should be removed, the legal arguments the group says support its actions, and why he feels public awareness, courage and direct action are now essential. Samuel also shared that the Blade Runners are planning talks and training sessions around the country to help others understand their position and get involved.Alongside the interview, I reflected on fear, language, sovereignty and the growing anxiety many people feel around AI, digital ID, facial recognition, data centres and the wider direction of modern society. Whether listeners agree with every claim raised or not, this episode is ultimately about how we respond to uncertainty, how we keep asking difficult questions, and how we protect our humanity, communities and sense of responsibility in increasingly unsettling times.Food For Thought Radio: https://www.fftradio.com/Blade Runners Daily (Telegram): https://t.me/bladerunner01Save Us Now (SUN): https://www.saveusnow.org.uk/Mark Devlin: https://djmarkdevlin.com/Louis Barabbas & The Bedlam Six: https://bedlamsix.com/Louis Barabbas – Music: https://louisbarabbas.com/music/Tom Cruise Official Website: https://mc.tomcruise.com/Nicole Kidman Official Website: https://nicolekidmanofficial.com/ChatGPT – OpenAI Academy: https://openai.com/academy/getting-started/Claude by Anthropic: https://claude.com/
