A new era of British politics has arrived at Downing Street with Andy Burnham vowing to put people before politics. The former Manchester Mayor and Labour cabinet minister has become Britain's fifth leader in four years, replacing Sir Keir Starmer. He wants to make politics more about problem-solving than point-scoring – taking power out of government and putting it into the hands of the people. UK Correspondent Enda Brady told Mike Hosking the Labour Party will have to present a united front now, as they have a short window in which to convince the public they can continue to govern. He says Burnham needs to find some quick wins to make the public believe what he's telling them. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The murder of firebrand politician Ann Widdecombe has sent shockwaves through the British establishment, prompting fresh debate around the safety of public figures. An unapologetic straight-talking stateswoman, Widdecombe served as an MP for 23 years, and was famed for controversial outspoken views on abortion, gay rights and women's issues. Despite her divisive nature, Widdecombe managed to win fans away from the political arena thanks to a memorable run on Strictly Come Dancing and other unlikely forays into reality TV. Now, as the investigation into her murder evolves into a terrorism probe, serious questions are being asked of the authorities in Britain, not least by Reform UK leader Nigel Farage, who called attention to the need for more money to be spent on security for public figures just days before Widdecombe's death. On Tuesday evening, counter-terrorism police in the UK stated that the murder of Ann Widdecombe is officially recognised as a “targeted attack” while noting that it has “not been declared as a terrorist incident”. Fionnán Sheahan is joined by TRT World presenter Enda Brady to discuss the latest on the investigation, and to look at the sometimes contradictory life of Ann Widdecombe and an increasingly threatening climate for politicians.

Hard-right politician Nigel Farage is resigning from UK Parliament, only to stand again. The Reform Party Leader's running in the Clacton by-election after triggering a vote when he stood down as MP. He remains under financial scrutiny for not declaring a £5 million gift, but currently only has joke-candidate Count Binface standing in his way. UK Correspondent Enda Brady told Mike Hosking he's sure he'll win, despite the public being sick of him. But he says if Farage thinks he's saving democracy and isn't spraying cash – hosting a by-election costs around £2 million. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Reeling from an investigation into his finances, Nigel Farage has gone on the offensive. In a public address on Tuesday afternoon, the Reform UK leader announced his intention to resign as an MP in order to trigger a by-election that he intends to contest. “This will be a people versus the establishment by-election,” Farage said. “It's a chance to stick two fingers up to the entire establishment, to frankly tell them where to go,” he added, noting that he will “fight to win” and “continue the political revolution that Reform has started” in the UK. The move has been heavily criticised by opponents, with outgoing prime minister Keir Starmer labelling it a “desperate stunt” and stating that Farage is “up to his neck in sleaze”. So, can Farage managed to turn the accusations against him into a conspiracy and turn the raging tide to his advantage? And who is ‘Posh George', the man whose association with Farage has caused such media scrutiny and public pressure? On this episode of The Indo Daily, host Kevin Doyle is joined by TRT World presenter Enda Brady to ask if Farage is redefining the idea of politics being a risky business.

The leader of Reform UK is in hot water over some undeclared financial gifts. Nigel Farage is facing a probe by Parliament's standards watchdog over a £5 million gift from convicted fraudster George Cottrell. Farage claims he has done no wrongdoing – insisting he followed the rules and is the victim of an “establishment hit job”. UK Correspondent Enda Brady told Mike Hosking he thinks the media is putting the Reform leader under intense scrutiny because if he is going to be Prime Minister, which Farage believes he will be one day, you need to know he's clean. He says you need to know where the money is coming from and who is paying for his security. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
