Podcast appearances and mentions of Jess Phillips

Labour's Abandoned Abused Girls for Votes #LabourParty #JessPhillips #ChildAbuse #PoliticalDebate In this explosive video, Jon Gaunt delves into the shocking abandonment of abused and raped girls by the Labour Party, as they seemingly prioritise political votes over justice. In the Commons yesterday, Jess Phillips' statement revealed that the Government has dropped the proposal for five local inquiries into the large-scale sexual abuse of girls, predominantly by Pakistani Muslim men, in UK Northern cities. This decision follows months of resistance to a national inquiry, despite survivors' demands for justice. Critics argue that Labour's reluctance to act stems from fear of alienating Muslim or Palestinian voters ahead of local elections, leading some to suggest gerrymandering or vote rigging. Why didn't the Labour Party want a national inquiry? Why did the Conservative Party fail to act during their 14 years in power? And why is the political establishment so afraid of transparency? Join Gaunty as he breaks down the political fallout and discuss how the mainstream media continues to ignore this massive issue of child sexual exploitation. Jon says forget new Theme Parks we have a Mickey Mouse Government! If you care about free speech, justice for victims, and transparency in UK politics, this video is a must-watch!

Năm 2025, Pháp kỷ niệm đúng 50 năm luật Veil được Quốc Hội thông qua, cho phép phụ nữ được phép nạo phá thai. Nhưng cũng phải mất 49 năm từ khi ngừng xem nạo phá thai là hành vi phạm tội, đến năm 2024 Pháp mới công nhận chấm dứt thai kỳ là quyền cơ bản của con người. Đây được xem là một dấu mốc lịch sử về quyền sinh sản tại Pháp. Không phải là chính quyền pháp khuyến khích nạo phá thai mà là cho phép phụ nữ tự do định đoạt thân thể và tương lai của mình, đồng thời giảm bớt nguy cơ các đảng chính trị chiếm đa số trong tương lai có thể muốn thiết lập lệnh cấm hoặc hạn chế, như Mỹ hay Ba Lan …Nhìn lại lịch sử, chấm dứt thai kỳ tại Pháp bị nghiêm cấm từ năm 1810. Dẫu không có số liệu chính thức, nhưng theo ước tính, mỗi năm có khoảng 500.000 phụ nữ, thuộc mọi hoàn cảnh và tầng lớp xã hội, phá thai. Thường thì chỉ những người có điều kiện tài chính mới dễ tìm được bác sĩ đáng tin cậy ở trong nước hay nước ngoài để chấm dứt thai kỳ. Phải đến năm 1975 luật Veil về nạo phá thai (đạo luật đặt theo tên bộ trưởng Y Tế Pháp thời đó là Simone Veil)mớiđược ban hành.1975 : Dấu mốc lịch sửSử gia Bibia Pavard là đồng tác giả cuốn sách « Đạo luật Veil. Một thế kỷ lịch sử » (NXB Découverte, 2024). Trong bài trả lời phỏng vấn của báo Le Monde ngày 17/01/2025, kỷ niệm 50 năm luật Veil, sử gia Bibia Pavard nhấn mạnh là dẫu cho cuộc đấu tranh về quyền phá thai đã thu hút các nhà nữ quyền từ đầu thế kỷ XX, nhưng phải đến tận cuối những năm 1960 - đầu những năm 1970 thì chấm dứt thai kỳ tự do và miễn phí mới được đặt vào tâm điểm phong trào đấu tranh nữ quyền tại Pháp.Đạo luật Veil năm 1975 là thành quả của 5 năm đấu tranh, vận động. Các tổ chức tranh đấu xem đó là một thắng lợi, nhưng cũng nhiều người thất vọng vì chưa đạt được tầm mức theo mong muốn. Theo sử gia Bibia Pavard, với đạo luật Veil năm 1975, chấm dứt thai kỳ vẫn chưa được công nhận là quyền mà chỉ được xem là sự rộng lượng của xã hội đối với những phụ nữ có thai nhưng do hoàn cảnh không thể muốn giữ thai để sinh con. Và đạo luật cũng chỉ là tạm thời với thời hạn 5 năm, chi phí nạo phá thai không được cơ quan Bảo hiểm Xã hội hoàn trả, người nước ngoài không được nạo phá thai tại Pháp …Các nhà nữ quyền hiểu rằng luật Veil khi đó mới chỉ mang đến một quyền khá « mong manh ». Ngoài ra là thái độ chống đối của nhiều bác sĩ. Đến những năm 1980-1990 thậm chí còn xuất hiện đội quân chống nạo phá thai, với hàng loạt hành động nhằm cản trở hoạt động của các cơ sở y tế nạo phá thai.  2025 : Chiến thắng biểu tượngCùng với những biến chuyển trong xã hội, dần dần thì phụ nữ cũng được tạo thuận lợi hơn khi tự nguyện chấm dứt thai kỳ : chi phí được Bảo hiểm Xã hội hoàn trả 100% theo hạn mức, tuổi thai tối đa khi bỏ thai được kéo dài, quy định về khoảng thời gian suy nghĩ trước khi phá thai được dỡ bỏ, phụ nữ được lựa chọn phương phá thai bằng thuốc hay dụng cụ, được hỗ trợ tâm lý sau khi phá thai, hình thức tư vấn từ xa được phát triển …Bên cạnh đó là việc ban hành các đạo luật ngăn chặn hành vi cản trở hay tìm cách cản trở phụ nữ phá thai hay tiếp cận thông tin về phá thai, hay hành vi dọa dẫm, gây khó khăn cho các cơ sở và nhân viên y tế phá thai cho phụ nữ. Việc làm lan truyền thông tin sai lệch cũng bị xử lý.   Và gần đây nhất, cách nay tròn 1 năm, vào ngày 08/03/2024, tổng thống Emmanuel Macron chủ trì lễ đóng dấu ấn vào đạo luật ghi quyền tự nguyện chấm dứt thai kỳ vào Hiến Pháp, đưa nước Pháp trở thành quốc gia đầu tiên trên thế giới mà quyền tự nguyện chấm dứt thai kỳ được Hiến Pháp công nhận và bảo vệ. Quyết định của chính quyền Macron được xem là bước đi tiên phong trong bối cảnh Tòa án Tối cao Hoa Kỳ hồi tháng 06/2022 đã hủy bỏ quyền phá thai, trong khi ở nhiều khu vực trên thế giới, thậm chí ngay tại châu Âu, cũng nổi lên một số phong trào tìm cách hạn chế quyền phá thai, thậm chí nghiêm cấm việc phá thai, cho dù việc ép buộc duy trì thai kỳ có thể gây nguy hiểm cho tính mạng người phụ nữ.Ba Lan : « địa ngục của phụ nữ » cần chấm dứt thai kỳTheo tổ chức bảo vệ quyền sinh sản, Center for Reproductive Rights, thì hiện nay trên thế giới vẫn còn tới 40% số phụ nữ trong độ tuổi sinh con sống tại những nước mà nạo phá thai bị hạn chế hoặc bị cấm. Riêng tại châu Âu, Ba Lan là một trong những điển hình về luật cấm hà khắc, tới mức nhiều phụ nữ đấu tranh đòi quyền chấm dứt thai kỳ gọi Ba Lan là « địa ngục của phụ nữ ». Từ năm 2020, chấm chứt thai kỳ gần như là bất hợp pháp ở Ba Lan, trừ 3 trường hợp : có thai do bị cưỡng hiếp, hoặc quan hệ loạn luân, hoặc nếu do duy trì thai kỳ sẽ đe dọa trực tiếp đến tính mạng hoặc sức khỏe của người mẹ.Phán quyết củaTòa Bảo Hiến Ba Lan đã khiến đến 90% số trường hợp nạo phá thai trở thành hành vi bất hợp pháp. Đạo luật khắc nghiệt tới mức nhiều bác sĩ, nhân viên y tế không dám tiến hành thủ thuật phá thai vì lo sợ gặp rắc rối với pháp luật, thậm chí là án tù giam, bởi vì việc hỗ trợ nạo phá thai bị cấm, ai vi phạm có thể bị tù giam 3 năm. Năm 2023, lần đầu tiên có một nhà tranh đấu cho nữ quyền bị phạt lao động công ích vì hỗ trợ một phụ nữ chấm dứt thai kỳ.Mới đây, AFP hôm 13/02/2025 cho biết là theo các số liệu chính thức trong 10 tháng đầu năm 2024 chỉ có 780 ca nạo phá thai tại các bệnh viện ở Ba Lan. Thế nhưng, trên thực tế, theo Abortion Without Borders, mạng lưới các nhà đấu tranh cho quyền chấm dứt thai kỳ, « nạo phá thai tại Ba Lan là chuyện thường ngày » và mỗi năm có tới 150.000 ca phá thai. Việc « phá thai chui » dĩ nhiên sẽ có những nguy cơ đối với sức khỏe của phụ nữ.Anh : Dư luận, pháp luật và thực tế vẫn có cùng một lối Nhìn sang Anh, quốc gia sinh ra phong trào cánh tả thế giới (từ thập niên 1840) và các nhóm tiên phong về nữ quyền rất nhiều năm trước khi ngày Quốc tế Phụ nữ được lập ở Mỹ (1910), cho tới nay, quyền phá thai của phụ nữ vẫn là một vấn đề phức tạp.Từ Luân Đôn, thông tín viên Nguyễn Giang ngày 06/03 giải thích thêm :« Dù đã vào năm thứ 25 của thế kỷ 21, Anh quốc vẫn phải sống với luật cho phép phá thai từ năm 1967, và tới những năm 2009-2010, cả Giáo hội Anh giáo (quốc đạo của Anh) và Giáo hội Công giáo tiếp tục phản đối phá thai, coi đây là điều “trái đạo đức”. Tuy thế, vấn đề ở Anh không phải là các giáo hội có ảnh hưởng gì tới quyền nạo phá thai của phụ nữ, mà là chuyện luật Anh điều chỉnh sự việc quá chi tiết, gây khó khăn cho phụ nữ.  Ví dụ, một mặt luật công nhận quyền phá thai của người mẹ khi thai nhi chưa tới 24 tuần tuổi, mặt khác, lại coi là tội hình sự nếu ai đó cố ý tự phá thai sau 24 tuần tuổi mà không được giám định y khoa của ít nhất 2 bác sĩ. Phá thai chỉ được phép nếu sinh mạng của người phụ nữ gặp nguy hiểm, nếu có bất thường nghiêm trọng ở thai nhi hoặc nếu người phụ nữ có nguy cơ chịu đựng tổn thương thể chất và tinh thần nghiêm trọng. Về thủ tục, việc phá hủy thai nhi quá 10 tuần tuổi phải được thực hiện ở bệnh viện hoặc trạm xá công (National Health Service), với mục đích cao cả là để đảm bảo sức khỏe cho người phụ nữ. Các quy định trên thực tế đã tạo ra tình trạng khó xử cho phụ nữ, nhất là các thiếu nữ, những phụ nữ trẻ, độc thân, chưa có kinh nghiệm cuộc sống, khiến họ không tìm đến 2 bác sĩ như luật định mà tới các trạm xá từ thiện.Cảnh sát Anh cho tới gần đây vẫn điều tra các trạm xá cung cấp dịch vụ phá thai và mở tới 60 cuộc điều tra hình sự ở Anh và xứ Wales kể từ năm 2018 đến đầu năm 2024. Họ yêu cầu trạm xá cung cấp thông tin cả về những phụ nữ gọi điện, gửi email tới tìm hiểu về thủ tục phá thai, dù chưa ai tới nơi thực hiện điều này. Một số nhà vận động cho rằng làm như vậy, cảnh sát đã khiến nhiều phụ nữ lo sợ và chỉ khiến dịch vụ bán viên thuốc phá thai sớm trên mạng internet tăng lên, không ai kiểm soát được.Tất cả những việc này xảy ra khi mà đại đa số người dân ở Anh (87%) coi việc cung cấp dịch vụ phá thai cho phụ nữ là điều cần thiết (điều tra dự luận năm 2023 của YouGov).Cùng lúc, có hiện tượng các trạm xá cung cấp dịch vụ phá thai miễn phí ở Anh trở thành mục tiêu biểu tình của những tổ chức chống phá thai hay còn gọi là “vì sự sống” (pro-life). Để giải quyết chuyện này, tân chính phủ Lao Động hồi tháng 10 năm ngoái đã ban lệnh cấm họ tiếp cận các trạm xá có dịch vụ phá thai trong vòng 150 mét. Với chính phủ của đảng Lao động, chính đảng đã nêu phá thai như một quyền của phụ nữ trong cương lĩnh tranh cử, thì đây là biện pháp bảo vệ mạnh mẽ hơn cho phụ nữ tiếp cận dịch vụ phá thai mà chính phủ nói là một phần của việc “chăm sóc sức khỏe thiết yếu”. Nữ bộ trưởng Jess Phillips nói hồi cuối năm 2024 rằng: “Quyền tiếp cận các dịch vụ phá thai là một quyền cơ bản của phụ nữ ở đất nước này, và không ai phải cảm thấy bất an khi tiếp cận dịch vụ này.”Nhưng với các nhóm Ki tô giáo phản đối quyền phá thai thì đây là việc dùng cảnh sát can thiệp vào nhân quyền và họ cầu nguyện để phụ nữ không bước chân vào các trạm xá nói trên ». Đã đến lúc chống bất bình đẳng Trở lại Pháp, cho dù được cho là có những quy định đi tiên phong, nhưng trên thực tế, từ luật lệ đến thực tế vẫn có độ chênh rất lớn, không thể ngày một ngày hai xóa bỏ. Phụ nữ tại Pháp vẫn gặp trở ngại khi tự nguyện chấm dứt thai kỳ. Giới quan sát và đấu tranh cho nữ quyền nói đến tình trạng bất bình đẳng mà phụ nữ gặp phải khi muốn phá thai. Chính vì thế, theo chính phủ Pháp, ban hành các đạo luật là chưa đủ. Điều cần làm bây giờ là chống bất bình đẳng về khả năng tiếp cận dịch vụ phá thai, do điều kiện chênh lệch giữa các vùng miền, tầng lớp xã hội và khả năng tiếp cận thông tin chuẩn xác.

Bijna 9 van de 10 aangiftes van gewelds- en zedendelicten in Engeland en Wales blijven onopgelost, zo blijkt uit een analyse door de Britse krant The Guardian. Jess Phillips, de verantwoordelijke staatssecretaris, bestempelt de onopgeloste misbruikzaken in Engeland zelfs als een nationale crisis. Veel slachtoffers durven of willen niet meer naar de politie stappen. Daarover Engelandkenner Hieke Jippes. (11:57) Mexico sorteert voor op Trump "Arm Mexico. Zo ver van God, zo dicht bij de Verenigde Staten." Deze wijsheid wordt in Mexico vaker van stal gehaald, maar zelden was hij zo actueel als nu. Want als er één land de gevolgen gaat ondervinden van het nationalistische beleid van Trump dan is het wel buurland Mexico. De aangekondigde tariefmuren gaan de Mexicaanse economie hard treffen en het land kan – als Trumps plannen doorgaan – rekenen op een grote hoeveelheid uitgezette migranten. Even in Nederland is onze Mexico-correspondent Jan Albert Hootsen.     Presentatie: Maaike Schoon  

This week, MPs voted against a new national inquiry into grooming gangs. The vote followed weeks of pressure on Labour after Elon Musk brought grooming gangs back into the spotlight, after safeguarding minister Jess Phillips rejected a new national inquiry. If we did have a national inquiry, what would it achieve? We've had many in recent years; Iraq, Grenfell Covid, the Post Office. Do they achieve meaningful justice for victims, or are they a drawn-out way to avoid knotty legislative change? Does parliament have the mechanisms to enact the recommendations – have politicians ever done this in the past, and is there an appetite to do so in the future? Deputy broadcast editor Natasha Feroze discusses with Spectator assistant editor Isabel Hardman, and Raja Miah, anti-grooming gang campaigner and Oldham commentator.

This week, we examine how Elon Musk's tweets have steered the UK parliamentary agenda in the first sitting days of the New Year. From a viral petition demanding a general election, to intense debates on child sexual exploitation and grooming gangs, Musk's influence has left its mark on this week's key political discussions. Ruth and Mark also unpack the rise of identical parliamentary questions and share their plans to cover the Assisted Dying Bill's next stages later this month.Elon Musk's tweets are more than just clickbait - they are actively driving UK politics. Ruth and Mark explore three major Commons events this week that were all amplified by Musk's controversial social media posts: a petition signed by three million people calling for a general election, debates on grooming gangs, and controversies surrounding the Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill. Musk's online influence has placed these issues at the forefront of political discourse, but his incendiary comments have also raised serious concerns about misinformation, online abuse, harassment and MP safety.In this episode, Ruth and Mark break down the strategies and tensions behind the parliamentary debates. They highlight how political positioning on the Children's Bill overshadowed critical discussions on education reform. Musk's online dominance and abuse has also escalated security risks for MPs like Jess Phillips, who faces intensified threats after his vituperative personal attacks.We unpack the politics behind the parliamentary decisions, look at the challenges of effective political communication, and preview how the issues may play out in the weeks ahead. We close with a look at the latest parliamentary trend: the orchestrated surge of identical questions by whips aiming to amplify government messaging. From project management jargon to strategic question crafting, this episode sheds light on the mechanics of Westminster.

Happy New Year - is 2025 going to be the year of disinformation? Elon Musk started in attack mode with a flood of vitriolic and false tweets about UK grooming gangs. In Musk's crosshairs: Keir Starmer and safeguarding minister Jess Phillips. He accused them both of cover ups. Can Nish and Coco survive a year of Musk madness - the man who already makes Nish want to “eat his own anus”?We're joined by political journalist Zoë Grünewald to discuss how to fight the disinformation invasion and what else might be in store in 2025 - from Reform eating the Tories to Labour delivering some much-needed change. And just when we thought we were done with billionaire BS - Mark Zuckerberg announced Meta is scrapping its fact-checking service and Andrew Tate launched a new political party. And poor Nish is under fire from GB News for “unnecessary political swipes”on the BBC. A word to GB News - unnecessary political swipes is what Nish does! Brace yourselves - it's a wild first show back. Guests: Zoë GrünewaldAudio credits: The GuardianBBC Sky NewsMark ZuckerbergPod Save the UK is a Reduced Listening production for Crooked Media.Contact us via email: PSUK@reducedlistening.co.ukInsta: https://instagram.com/podsavetheukTwitter: https://twitter.com/podsavetheukTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@podsavetheukFacebook: https://facebook.com/podsavetheukYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@PodSavetheUK

The Trawl is back! Jemma and Marina are thrilled to be back behind their mics but could not have predicted the kind of fallout and controversy they'd be back with. A certain tech bro, out of control billionaire, has been firing off tweets suggesting, amongst other things, that the US should exert economic pressure on the UK to get far-right agitator Tommy Robinson out of prison and that King Charles should dissolve Parliament, while crossing so many lines there aren't any lines left to cross. At the heart of his rantings is a very serious and tragic issue, the vile grooming gangs who sexually abused and tortured young girls in places such as Rochdale and Rotherham and whose victims have been let down and failed by politicians of all flavours, the police, and councils. Jemma and Marina discuss why drawing attention to a topic which does deserve more focus isn't the same as wanting to interfere in a country's democratic processes. As for calling out Jess Phillips in the reprehensible manner that Musk has, they spend a bit of time discussing why that is so wrong and looking at reaction. As for the drop mic moment when Musk declared that Farage should not be leading Reform a mere few hours after Farage had been sucking up to him on the Laura Kuenssberg show, the Trawl ladies have just the right clip to express how it made them feel. And of course, a Trawl would not be a Trawl without pudding and under-rated tweets.

  Sky News' deputy political editor Sam Coates and Politico's Jack Blanchard are back for 2025 with their guide to the day ahead in politics in under 20 minutes.   The drama is also back - with Elon Musk causing more than a stir in British politics after changing his mind about Reform UK leader Nigel Farage.   It comes after Musk launched an attack on Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and his safeguarding minister Jess Phillips over their handling of past grooming gang cases.   How can the government respond to the richest man in the world's running commentary on British politics?   Also - the prime minister launches the government's full plan for the NHS this morning, but can it really bring down waiting lists?   You can send a WhatsApp to Jack and Sam on 07511 867 633 or email them: jackandsam@sky.uk 

Douglas Murray, Spectator columnist, joins Americano host and Spectator deputy editor Freddy Gray. This week, Home Office Minister Jess Phillips rejected Oldham Council's request for a government-led inquiry into the horrific scandal of grooming gangs in dozens of UK cities. Her decision has led to real backlash – with X owner Elon Musk calling for safeguarding minister Jess Phillips to be jailed, and for the King to dissolve parliament. Have politicians underestimated the strength of public feeling in the UK and the US? They also discuss the Southport riots, and ask why some politicians are unwilling to confront societal problems in the name of political correctness.

Joanna Williams, Tom Slater and Fraser Myers discuss terror attacks in America, Jess Phillips's grooming-gangs betrayal and Farage vs Badenoch.

The team take differing views on the epic politics of 2024, with the help of Jess Phillips and Mel Stride. Plus festive wine tips from Iain and leading critic Will Lyons. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Alicia McCarthy reports as the Safeguarding minister, Jess Phillips, announces new measures that will allow the police to reveal the identities of online stalkers.

Dan Wootton - Media, Musk and the Future of Freedom in the UK   In this compelling episode, we dive into the UK media's evolving landscape with a prominent journalist who has transitioned from the glitz of showbiz to the gravity of political commentary. The conversation begins with an exploration of the guest's career shift, sparked by the divisive Brexit vote, which highlighted the mainstream media's reluctance to embrace democratic outcomes, pushing our guest towards independent platforms.   We discuss the inception of GB News, intended as a conservative counterbalance in a left-leaning media environment, and the challenges that ensued, including the guest's personal battle against media constraints, particularly after hosting a controversial figure. This leads into a broader discussion on cancel culture, where our guest recounts facing repercussions for promoting free speech, drawing attention to the media's uneven handling of controversial discussions.   The episode also covers a recent petition in the UK, gaining nearly two million signatures rapidly, as a testament to public unrest with the current government and establishment. This is portrayed as not just a call for electoral change but a deeper demand for systemic reform.   The conversation touches on Elon Musk's influence on social media freedom, suggesting a hopeful shift towards more open discourse. Finally, we explore the rise of populist movements across continents, advocating for a grassroots approach to political change in the UK, challenging the traditional political duopoly.    This episode is a clarion call for listeners to engage with their political environment, emphasizing the transformative potential of independent media in an era where free expression is under threat. The discussion underscores the importance of diverse voices in media, highlighting how one journalist's journey reflects broader societal shifts towards seeking truth and accountability in governance.   Connect with Dan… Dan Wootton Outspoken airs weekdays at 5PM UK/12PM ET/9AM PT

Starting today, new protection zones around abortion clinics will make it illegal to harass, obstruct, or attempt to influence anyone seeking or providing abortion services within 150 metres. But what does this mean for women accessing clinics and the potential impacts on pro-life protests?   Host Liz Bates visits a London clinic to hear from medical staff who have faced abuse when going into work, and speaks to Lily, who told us "my abortion wasn't traumatic. The harassment I received was", when pro-life protesters were outside when she went for an abortion.  Plus, Liz interviews Jess Phillips, parliamentary under-secretary of state for safeguarding and violence against women and girls, who told the Daily, that she feels proud that the law has come into force.   Producers: Emma Rae Woodhouse, Soila Apparicio Editor: Philly Beaumont

Headlines about wars in Ukraine and Gaza have flooded front pages - yet, the "world's biggest humanitarian crisis" is battling for media attention. Why?  In Sudan, a terrible war is raging. What started as a conflict between the Sudan Armed forces (SAF) and paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) has exploded into chaos and bloodshed, with countless militias, ethnic massacres, and foreign proxy self-interest. Over 25 million people face acute hunger. Nearly 11 million have been displaced. And the death count is suspected to be as high as five times as high as in Gaza. But if you were to judge by how much international attention Sudan gets - either from the media, politicians, or humanitarian donors - you wouldn't realise this is happening before the world's eyes.  Joining Media Storm this week is Sudanese activist and the man behind the social media platform Sudan Updates, Ameen Mekki. We are also joined by Sudanese refugee, public speaker, and charity worker Gaida Dirar, to discuss how British colonial history played a part in Sudan's present-day difficulties - and why the war is as urgent to Western audiences as any other. Plus, your week's Media Storms: panic about a potential pub garden smoking ban, an extracted anecdote from Jess Phillips that apparently provided proof of a 'two-tier NHS', misleading claims about crime at Notting Hill Carnival, and the voices missing in Israel-Palestine coverage: though they may not be the voices you think.  Hosts: Mathilda Mallinson (@mathildamall) and Helena Wadia (@helenawadia) Music: Samfire (@soundofsamfire) Assistant Producer: Katie Grant Episode research: Camilla Tiana Support Media Storm on Patreon!

Labour MP for Birmingham Yardley since 2015, Jess Phillips has never shied away from controversy nor has she been afraid to veer away from Labour Party lines to uphold her political principles. For this episode, we're joined by Phillips to discuss some of the most pressing issues in British politics during a fortnight that has seen shocking scenes of violence and racism unfold across UK streets. Following Labour's recent election win, Phillips is Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Minister for Safeguarding) at the Home Office. She's also the author of a new book, Let's Be Honest, which combines memoir and manifesto to discuss what's going wrong with politics and offers ideas on how to fix it. She came to the Intelligence Squared stage recently, appearing live at London's Kiln Theatre for a talk recorded on Thursday 8 August for which she was joined in conversation by the journalist, author and broadcaster Helen Lewis.

This special bonus episode was recorded on Saturday 6 July, just two days after the general election. We got to interview Jess Phillips MP in front of a live audience at the Birmingham MAC, and she was brilliant. We covered loads of topics including Jess's work in the areas of women's rights and domestic violence, what she wants the new Labour government to prioritise, and what she thinks of Starmer's cabinet appointments. We also talk about the abuse suffered by Jess and her staff in the run-up to the election, and why she thinks it was the worst campaign she's ever been involved in. Plus: fancying Stanley Tucci, why becoming an MP is like joining the NCT, and parliamentary hairdressers - do Tories have better hair? After all that we had some questions from the audience that were so brilliant we ran out of time (forgot) to do the Scummy Mummy Confessions. But if that's your favourite bit of the show, have no fear - we have something special coming soon. Make sure you're subscribed to the podcast so you don't miss out. Huge thanks to Jess Phillips, and a massive thank you to the Birmingham MAC for having us.

Jemma and Marina were thrilled when Labour MP, Jess Phillips, agreed to take time out of her mad diary for a proper chinwag. The Trawl ladies were fascinated to know how it feels being a female MP during such febrile times and found out what motivates her to keep going. At time of record, Rishi Sunak, hadn't surprised everyone by calling the election so unexpectedly early but Labour were in election mode nonetheless, and Marina and Jemma took the opportunity to find out what Jess makes of Natalie Elphicke's defection from the Tory party and, how it felt when she quit the front bench in 2023 over Keir Starmer's stance on Gaza, after voting in the Commons for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas conflict. They discuss the work she does in her role as Minister for Domestic Violence and Safeguarding, and her podcast with Beth Rigby and Ruth Davidson, Electoral Dysfunction and ask the question everyone wants answered - will Labour become more 'left' if/when they get into power.

First, historian, journalist, dissident, and human rights activist Craig Murray talks about running as Member of Parliament for the Workers Party and his activism around Gaza and Assange. Then Jody McIntyre joins to talk about why he's running for MP for Birmingham Yardley. Then Palestine Youth Movement organizer Remo Ibrahim reveals what REALLY happened at the synagogue protest and Jewish anti-zionist Rich Siegel talks about why he condemned the sale of occupied land. Craig Murray is an historian, ex British ambassador to Uzbekistan, whistleblower, friend and campaigner for Assange's freedom and Workers Party candidate for Parliament under George Galloway's Workers Party in Blackburn. Jody McIntyre is a candidate for Parliament under George Galloway's Workers Party of Britain. He is the sole independent candidate running in the Birmingham-Yardley constituency, located in the city of Birmingham, England, against the Labour Party's Jess Phillips, who is a member of Labour Friends of Israel and is likely to become a minister in the new government, if she wins re-election Birmingham-Yardley. Jody has cerebral palsy and is a lifelong activist, focused on Palestine, disability-rights, and education. He converted to Islam as a young adult and has lived in Palestine multiple times, including being there on the day of the October 7th attacks. In 2010, he was the subject of national-news coverage when he was dragged out of his wheelchair by police multiple times while participating in mass protests against budget cuts and tuition hikes. Remo Ibrahim is an organizer with the Palestinian Youth Movement, LAOCIE chapter (@palestinianyouthmovement, @pymlaocie). He is committed to the struggle for Palestinian liberation, and to confronting Zionism and white supremacy wherever it appears. Rich Siegel is a musician and activist. Raised in what he calls “the cult of atheistic Zionism posing as Judaism”, in his youth Rich was very involved as a supporter of Israel, notably as a teenage Zionist youth group president. He then lived in Israel in his 20's working as a pianist in a luxury hotel. Rich's change of heart began as a spiritual awakening, by which he came to see that Jewish tribal identity and the state of Israel were worshipped as idols. Then he became acquainted with Zionism's crimes against humanity, which contradicted the Zionist narrative he grew up with. Organizing demonstrations against Zionist activity in the northern New Jersey suburbs where he lives, Rich's activism hit a high note when a talk he gave in front of the Teaneck town council went viral. Recently Rich was fired from a teaching job at a local music school due to a pro-Palestine Facebook post. He is director of Deir Yassin Remembered, a pro-Palestine charity and activist organization. He is currently running for Congress in New Jersey, with the Ceasefire and Justice Party. **Please support The Katie Halper Show ** For bonus content, exclusive interviews, to support independent media & to help make this program possible, please join us on Patreon / thekatiehalpershow Get your Katie Halper Show Merch here! https://katiehalper.myspreadshop.com/all Follow Katie on Twitter: @kthalps

In this episode of the Blood Brothers Podcast, Dilly Hussain speaks with the veteran disabled pro-Palestine campaigner and Muslim convert, Jody Mcintyre.   Topics of discussion include: Labour Party's enabling of Israel's genocide in Gaza. Unseating Labour and running as a parliamentary candidate for Wokers Party in Birmingham Yardley. What led to this decision? Have critics or opposition raised Jody's disability as a reason not to vote for him? Disability representation in society and politics. Jess Phillips and her support for Labour Friends of Israel. How mainstream are anti-trans and anti-LGBT views among British people? What is Jody offering and promising constituents besides Gaza? Why should a non-Muslim in Yardley who doesn't care for Gaza vote for Workers Party?

On a busy week of news as MPs return to Parliament, Nish and Coco are joined by the Labour MP Jess Phillips. She gives her take on the investigation into Angela Rayner's tax affairs, and reveals the toll it's taking on her party's deputy leader. A discussion on Iran's unprecedented attack on Israel leads Jess to reveal her family links to Iran, and there's some rare praise for Rishi Sunak for his anti-smoking legislation. Jess also says Diane Abbott should get the whip back, despite the two Labour colleagues having a somewhat frosty relationship. Villain of the week is Liz Truss for her shameless book tour, although Jess makes a play for her to be hero, saying she's “a gift” for Labour and “should be on the tele more”. There's also praise for Ted Lasso star Hannah Waddingham, for putting a sexist photographer in his place.
