  • Gen Z and Marriage
    Aug 2 2026

    Gabriella tells Clive about her Generation’s attitude to marriage and relationships. Fewer Gen Zs want to get married or have children until their 30s. Around 30 per cent of their Generation still live with their parents as they can’t afford their own place to live. It is now socially embarassing for Gen Z women to have a boy friend. Is it COVID to blame or a completely new society being developed?

  • Social Media
    Jun 12 2026

    Clive and Gabriella discuss the impacts Social Media has on young people and conclude they are mainly bad. Social Media sites encourage young people to spend many hours every day "doom scrolling" through often age inappropriate contents. The UK Government is considering banning under 16 year olds from accessing sites as has already been done in Australia and being considered elsewhere. Is this a good idea? Is it practical? Clive and Gabriella have answers.
