Beleggers van farmaceut Novo Nordisk zijn afvallig. Het aandeel wordt gedumpt, want de directie komt met misselijkmakend nieuws. Er is voor de tweede keer dit jaar een winstwaarschuwing en als toetje komt daar nog een omzetwaarschuwing bovenop. De verkoop van de afvalprikken van Novo Nordisk vallen tegen. Concurrent Eli Lilly doet het beter. Alleen profiteert het aandeel van de concurrent niet van de neergang van Novo Nordisk. Sterker nog: die gaat ook hard onderuit. Beleggers denken namelijk dat de hele sector overdreven is. Daar hebben we het deze aflevering over. Is de markt voor afvalmedicatie niet gewoon een hype? Hoor je ook over heel veel ander nieuws, want het was een drukke beursdag. Philips bijvoorbeeld, dat hield een zegetocht op de Amsterdamse beurs. Eens géén winstwaarschuwing voor Philips, maar juist een opwaardering voor de winst. Een bedankje daarvoor kan naar het Witte Huis. Waar dan geen muziek in zit, is Spotify. De streamer stelt teleur en dat is heel lang geleden. Er komen meer abonnees bij, maar Spotify maakt onverwachts verlies. Verder in deze aflevering:

Life at times can become intense, insular and claustrophobic. God' word comes to us to look up from the immediate, change our perspective and see beyond the problems. 'Open Skies' will help us to appreciate the wonder and awe of God, His creation, and the possibilities and perspective that brings. With it comes new life, energy and joy. ㅤ Pastor Stuart Keir continued the series with a message titled 'Look up...The camels are coming'

The UK has finally signed a free-trade deal with India after three-and-a-half years of negotiation. The agreement will open up trade for cars, whisky, clothing and food products, with ministers claiming it will boost the British economy by £4.8 billion. For Keir Starmer, it offers much-needed economic and political good news. For Indian prime minister Narendra Modi, it shows that the £3 trillion Indian economy is willing to shake off its protectionist tradition and open up to international investors.Lucy Dunn discusses with James Heale and Michael Simmons.

Wir blicken zurück auf die französisch-britische und die deutsch-britische Annäherung in Form von mehr oder weniger pompösen Staatsbesuchen von Macron und eine Woche später Merz in London. Außerdem wagen wir eine Vorschau auf Keir Royal – Trumps UK-Reise inklusive einem Treffen mit King Charles.

Keir Starmer has struck again. Compounding his reputation as a ruthless operator – like Michael Corleone – he is settling all family business by removing the whip from a number of troublemaking MPs, including Neil Duncan Jordan, Chris Hinchcliff, Brian Leishman and Rachel Maskell. This comes after each led respective revolts on winter fuel, planning reform, Grangemouth and the welfare changes. Rosena Allin-Khan, Bell Ribeiro-Addy and Mohammed Yasin have all lost their trade envoy roles too.Many of the MPs who have been cast adrift are from the new intake, and so today we are joined on the podcast by Mike Tapp, MP for Dover and Deal, to give his reflections on a year in office. On the podcast: he offers James Heale his advice on stopping the boats; details how Labour can start to deliver tangible change for people in constituencies much like his own; explains why Keir was right to suspend his fellow MPs; and gives us an insight into the future Labour stars from the new intake.Produced by Oscar Edmondson.We are hosting a Coffee House Shots live tomorrow (15th July) at The Emmanuel Centre in Westminster.

Ed, Oli, and Ava sit down to react to the final PMQs before parliament enters recess. Kemi and Keir's last dance, if you will. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's been a grim, record-breaking week for Ukraine, with Russia unleashing an unprecedented wave of missiles and drones, including decoys to overwhelm air defences. Amid the chaos, Trump seemed equally thrown—confused by Putin, then reversing course to reinstate military aid to Kyiv after pausing it just last week. Washington is now dangling sanctions as the carrot turns to stick in ceasefire efforts. Meanwhile, it's been pageantry over politics as the Macrons embarked on a three-day state visit to the UK. Kicking off with cocktails at Windsor Castle—“The Entente”, a symbolic mix of British gin and French pastis—the visit marked a reset in post-Brexit ties. There were toasts with the King and Keir, a nuclear cooperation deal, and a plan to stop migrant crossings. Macron couldn't resist a little “I told you so” on Brexit. And in tech: Elon Musk's AI chatbot Grok sparked outrage after it began imitating Hitler and promoting anti-Semitic views. Just days after Musk hailed its progress, Grok called itself “MechaHitler.” Musk blamed manipulation and removed the posts. The fallout continued with the sudden resignation of X CEO Linda Yaccarino—met with a cold, two-line farewell.

This week: Peerless – the purge of the hereditary peersFor this week's cover, Charles Moore declares that the hereditary principle in Parliament is dead. Even though he lacks ‘a New Model Army' to enforce the chamber's full abolition, Keir Starmer is removing the hereditary peers. In doing so, he creates more room, reduces the Conservatives' numerical advantage, and improves ‘the sex and ethnic balance'. But 86 hard-working and dutiful peers ‘lacking worldly ambition or partisan passions' will be lost.Also in the magazine, Sophia Falkner, researcher at The Spectator, sets out exactly what we stand to lose by profiling some of the most capable hereditary peers in the House. She warns that Labour's purge is ripping the heart out of the Lords. Sophia and Charles spoke to Natasha Feroze earlier this week on Spectator TV – you can also hear their discussion on the podcast. (01:10)Next: Why should the hunt for the next Archbishop of Canterbury be ‘inclusive'?That's the question Revd Fergus Butler-Gallie asks in the magazine this week. ‘It will be a miracle,' writes Butler-Gallie, ‘if we know the name of the new Primate of All England by the autumn.' Justin Welby announced his resignation as Archbishop of Canterbury last November; it took until May this year even to assemble the committee to discuss his potential successors.For Butler-Gallie, the process doesn't have to be swift – it only has to be ‘holy'. To discuss what exactly constitutes a ‘holy process' – and what this drawn-out process says about the Church – he joined us alongside Esme Partridge, journalist and master's student in philosophy and religion at Cambridge University. (18:57)Finally: Does AI belong on the tennis court?Patrick Kidd writes in the magazine about the creep of AI spoiling sport, following a high-profile incident during this week's Wimbledon tournament in which the AI system stands accused of ‘human error'. To discuss, Kidd was joined by Dr Tom Webb, founder of the Referee and Sports Official Research Network. (34:16)Hosted by William Moore and Gus CarterProduced by Oscar Edmondson and Ed Harvey

How did it all go so wrong for the Labour government? A massive majority of MPs, and a country yearning for change, but now, a year on: rock-bottom poll numbers and a seeming inability to get bills through parliament. Can Labour learn and improve? Can they roll back the growing disenchantment with both the main parties? Can they get some wins? Robert Ford, Professor of Political Science at the University of Manchester, tells Phil and Roger they need to improve their messaging and make some courageous decisions Hosted on Acast.

This week's episode of Pod Save the UK comes live from Sheffield's Crossed Wires Festival. Nish and Coco sit down with two special guests: former trader and economics commentator Gary Stevenson and South Yorkshire's Mayor Oliver Coppard. Cracking open cans of Nish, provided by local brewery Triple Point, Nish and Coco discuss the recent vote on labelling certain protest groups as terrorist organisations and the not-so-slow creep in the loss of our rights. One year into Government - backflips on Labour's Welfare Bill have led to a new round of supermassive black holes for the Chancellor Rachel Reeves to plug. Gary Stevenson gives us some ideas on how to do it… And what about tackling economic inequalities on a local level? Oliver Coppard reflects on the Government's push to go further and faster on devolution and the difficult decisions he's made to achieve his priorities for South Yorkshire. Finally, with Independent MP Zarah Sultana quitting Labour to form a new progressive party, everyone gives their two cents on what this will mean for the future of the left.

Zut alors! The French are in town. Emmanuel Macron is on his state visit this week, spending time today with the King and tomorrow with the Prime Minister. His itinerary includes a state dinner and an address to both Houses of Parliament this afternoon.All the pageantry, of course, is for a reason: to defrost what Tim Shipman calls the ‘entente glaciale' and the stalemate over migration. Keir will be hoping to get the French to sign a ‘one in, one out' migration deal – with Labour seemingly surprised that, upon coming into power, the French didn't roll over and make concessions on small boats when a left-wing government took office. Can we expect a new entente cordiale? Is there anything in it for Macron when it comes to stopping the boats?We also received the sad news today that Tory grandee Norman Tebbit and regular Spectator contributor Jonathan Miller have passed away. We remember both of them on the podcast.James Heale speaks to Tim Shipman and Freddy Gray.Produced by Oscar Edmondson and Megan McElroy.

The Matts are joined by New World contributing editor Tom Baldwin - author of Keir Starmer The Biography - for an honesty session. Where has Labour gone wrong in its poor first year and is Keir Starmer the right man to turn things around and keep Farage out of Downing Street.

Keir Starmer will have been hoping for a more relaxed week – but he certainly won't be getting one. He is facing a fresh rebellion over support for children with special educational needs (SEND), which threatens to become welfare 2.0.The plan involves overhauling the SEND system and it's another case of Labour MPs exclaiming that they didn't stand on a Labour ticket just to target the most vulnerable in society. The main concern among backbenchers is whether it should be legally enforceable for parents to ensure their children receive bespoke support. Elsewhere, all roads lead to the Treasury, as Neil Kinnock has a solution for increasing Rachel Reeves's headroom: a wealth tax. It's the idea that never seems to go away – but will it just increase the number of billionaires fleeing the country?Oscar Edmondson speaks to Tim Shipman and Michael Simmons.Produced by Oscar Edmondson.

Russia's Cyber Warfare Tactics: A Deep Dive with Keir GilesIn this episode, we're joined by Keir Giles to discuss Russia's ever-evolving cyber warfare tactics aimed at hacking the data of its enemies. We delve into Giles' first-hand experience and broader insights into how Russia targets specialists, analysts, and those opposing its actions. We emphasize that this threat extends beyond high-profile individuals, potentially affecting anyone with valuable information. Giles provides a detailed account of a sophisticated hacking attempt he recently faced, featuring novel methodologies and significant resource allocation, suggesting a high-level operation. We also explore the broader implications of these cyber attacks, the rationale behind Russia's hierarchical targeting, and the potential geopolitical repercussions involving China. Finally, we touch on the concept of Russia's sub-threshold warfare and anticipate possible future escalations in the ongoing conflict. Stay tuned for a gripping exploration of modern cyber warfare and the intricate strategies employed by state actors.----------Keir Giles has spent his career watching, studying, and explaining Russia. Keir's work has appeared in a wide range of academic and military publications across Europe and in North America, and he is a regular contributor and commentator on Russian affairs for international print and broadcast media.

What is a fair way to govern? In response to a long time listener who feels a victim of his own success – disproportionately hit by taxes and ineligible for certain benefits – Ed Balls explains three different philosophical concepts of ‘fairness'. George Osborne meanwhile dismisses wealth tax as a catch all solution, underlining how the Labour government must look to the broader population. Listeners are reflecting on Keir Starmer a year into his premiership, with some wondering about his core set of beliefs (or lack thereof) and others questioning their decision to lend him their vote. What can the PM do to inspire these wavering voters?Ed and George also note institutional differences in the role academics play in government. Why is an economic academic more likely to find a role in the US government or the Bank of England then in the UK cabinet? And who are the UK's Machiavelli-like politicians of recent times? Boris Johnson is dismissed as a candidate but Ed Balls nominates someone closer to home, suggesting that George Osborne may have pulled more strings in the Cameron government than we appreciated.

This week marks a year of Keir Starmer's government. But if Labour was expecting to celebrate the anniversary – it didn't pan out that way. Despite claiming a narrow victory with the contentious welfare bill, the government appeared to have one of its roughest weeks on record.

Today marks one year since Labour Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer entered No. 10 Downing Street, but it's been a tricky start, as he faces plummeting polls, backbench rebels and sudden U-turns. The Standard's reporter Fred Hood takes to the street to ask the public how they feel about his policies, and Chief Correspondent Rachael Burford explains the challenges that lie ahead - plus the latest on the news that Ex-Labour MP Zarah Sultana will set up a new independent party with Jeremy Corbyn.And in part two, The Standard's Head of Culture, Martin Robinson, reports from Cardiff where Liam and Noel Gallagher are reuniting for the first time since 2009, kickstarting their long-awaited worldwide Oasis tour.

Twelve months ago, the Conservatives suffered the worst general election result in their near 200 year history and Keir Starmer took up the mantle at Downing Street. It's been turbulent - from riots sweeping the UK, to party divisions and economic uncertainty. This Friday, Jon and Lewis answer your questions about the Prime Minister's first year in office and look back on how his government is doing.

This weekend marks 12 months since last year's General Election, when Labour were swept to power with an enormous landslide victory ending 14 long years in opposition, but it seems unlikely they will be hanging the bunting outside Number 10 after a very tough first year in office for Keir Starmer.To discuss just how bad things have got, and how Labour might solve their problems, PoliticsHome have again partnered with the pollsters Thinks Insight & Strategy, who have taken the nation's temperature this week, and with host Alain Tolhurst to discuss the results of their voter survey is their CEO Ben Shimshon, along with two Labour MPs elected for the first time last summer, Rachel Blake, the member for Cities of London and Westminster, and Julia Buckley, the MP for Shrewsbury.To sign up for our newsletters click herePresented by Alain Tolhurst, produced by Nick Hilton and edited by Ewan Cameron for Podot

This week: one year of Labour – the verdictIn the magazine this week Tim Shipman declares his verdict on Keir Starmer's Labour government as we approach the first anniversary of their election victory.One year on, some of Labour's most notable policies have been completely changed – from the u-turn over winter fuel allowance to the embarrassing climb-down over welfare this week. Starmer has appeared more confident on the world stage but, for domestic audiences, this is small consolation when the public has perceived little change on the problems that have faced Britain for years. Can Starmer turn it around?Tim joined the podcast alongside the Spectator's editor Michael Gove. What would they say Starmer's greatest mistake, and biggest success, have been over the past year? (1:46)Next: would Zohran Mamdani ruin New York? In the magazine this week, the Spectator's deputy US editor Kate Andrews writes about Zohran Mamdani – the self-declared ‘democratic socialist' who defied expectations to become the Democratic Party's presumptive candidate for the New York City mayoral election this November. From a little-known state assemblyman to the mayoral heir presumptive – how did Mamdani do it? And what effect could his policies have? Kate joined the podcast alongside the Spectator's US editor Freddy Gray. (24:03)And finally: ‘admit it – most wedding toasts are awful'Are wedding toasts as awful as Madeline Grant says they are in the magazine this week?Maddie writes about the trend for multiple speeches at weddings, beyond the traditional three, blaming creeping Americanisms and the feminist revolution, amongst other things. These, compounded with widespread poor oratory skills, means the playbill looks ‘fuller and fuller' and guests are denied a moment to ‘at least dull the horror with alcohol'. Should we push back against the trend?Maddie joined the podcast alongside professional speechwriter Damian Reilly. (35:37)Hosted by William Moore and Gus Carter.Produced by Patrick Gibbons.

Oliver's monologue on a Thursday

There is much we still don't know or understand about today. Was Rachel Reeves upset by an altercation with the Speaker? Was the issue something more personal? Was she exhausted after the fruitless and demoralising failure of her welfare reform bill? But the sight of the Chancellor at lunch time today fighting back tears at the PM's side was pretty surreal. She looked wounded, fragile and hurt - and inevitably, it's started speculation she does not have the Prime Minister's full confidence. The markets are queasy - reflecting a panic that the government is looking less stable. Could the PM be about to sack his own Chancellor? And - how does he reassert his authority for the job he needs to do if the Labour MPs are now directing policy? We talk to Keir's former chief of staff Sam White.The News Agents is brought to you by HSBC UK - https://www.hsbc.co.uk/

The Matts reflect on the prospect of famine in Gaza while the UK media obsesses on the antics of a rapper on a Glastonbury stage. Why is the crisis facing hundreds of thousands of children relegated to an afterthought? Why does Keir Starmer say more about Bob Vylan than the humanitarian disaster on the eastern shore of the Med?Also: can Starmer survive the pirouettes of u-turns he is performing as the Parliamentary Labour Party rejects his welfare bill? As we approach his year anniversary in power, the Matts ask how long before we are discussing the end of the Keir show?OFFER: Get The New World for just £1 for the first month.

In this exclusive episode of the Netmums Podcast, we're invited inside 10 Downing Street for a rare, one-to-one interview with Prime Minister Keir Starmer — and we're talking about more than politics. From free childcare for babies from nine months to plans for paternity leave reform, Keir opens up about the big policy changes aimed at supporting UK parents and working families. But he also gets personal, sharing what it's really like raising teenagers while running the country, how his family tackles Friday night takeaway decisions, and why changing nappies and flexible working matter just as much as parliamentary bills. Expect honest reflections on fatherhood, candid advice for mums and dads, and a powerful reminder that there's no one right way to parent. This is an absolute must-listen!

Keir Starmer has performed a screeching about-turn on his flagship welfare reforms, all in the hope of quelling the rebellion from more than 120 MPs who have been promised ‘massive concessions' over concerns about disability benefits.These include moderating the bill to make it easier for people with multiple impairments to claim disability benefits, and offering to protect Personal Independence Payments (PIP) for all existing claimants for ever – to ensure there would be no detriment from the reforms for existing claimants, a key concern of the welfare rebels. But new claimants will be affected, as ministers desperately try to stop ever-spiralling disability and sickness welfare spending climbing to £100 billion by 2030. It means another big U-turn for Starmer – and another hole in the Treasury's finances. Early estimates suggest that the welfare bill climbdown could cost £2 billion: money which Rachel Reeves will now have to find elsewhere. Can Starmer recover? Oscar Edmondson speaks to James Heale and Luke Tryl, director of More in Common.Produced by Oscar Edmondson.

It's bad news all round for Labour and the Tories. An MRP poll out today forecasts that if an election were held tomorrow, Labour would not only lose its majority, but fall behind Reform to become the second-largest party. The Conservatives would be reduced to a mere 46 seats, placing them fourth behind the Lib Dems.But that's just the beginning of their collective woes. On the Labour side – despite Keir Starmer's charm offensive and ongoing talks with Labour MPs about potential changes to welfare policy – the number of rebels appears to be growing. The feeling increasingly is that someone might have to go, and calls for ‘regime change' splash the Times. Is time up for Morgan McSweeney?On the other side of the House, the Tories are in disarray, as Tim Shipman reports in The Spectator this week. In his scoop-filled piece, he writes: David Cameron thinks Robert Jenrick should be the next Tory leader, strategists fear the best they can hope for is to salvage 80 seats, and the blond bombshell Boris Johnson has a five-point plan for his return. Are the Tories toast?James Heale speaks to Michael Gove and Tim Shipman.Produced by Oscar Edmondson and Megan McElroy.

Starmer's war zone: the Prime Minister's perilous positionThis week, our new political editor Tim Shipman takes the helm and, in his cover piece, examines how Keir Starmer can no longer find political refuge in foreign affairs. After a period of globe-trotting in which the Prime Minister was dubbed ‘never-here Keir', Starmer's handling of international matters had largely been seen as a strength. But as tensions escalate in the Iran–Israel conflict, global events are beginning to create serious challenges. They threaten not only to derail the government's economic plans but also to deepen divisions within the Labour party, particularly between the leadership and much of the parliamentary party. Tim joined the podcast alongside The Spectator US editor Freddy Gray. (02:08)Next: is it a mistake to try and topple Iran's Supreme Leader?Justin Marozzi asks if we are seeing ‘an ominous mission creep in Israel's blistering attack on Iran'. Donald Trump has been calling for the ‘UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER' of Iran, while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been directly addressing the Iranian people. The regime may be unpopular, but how realistic is the expectation of regime change? Marozzi joined the podcast alongside Michael Stephens, a Middle East expert at the defence and security thinktank Rusi. (19:07)And finally: should we embrace feeling shame?Stuart Jeffries reviews a new book by the French philosopher Frédéric Gros in the books section of the magazine this week. A Philosophy of Shame: A Revolutionary Emotion argues that shame should be embraced, rather than avoided. So, in an era of ‘cancel culture' and public shaming – not to mention some of the shamelessness exhibited by social media influencers – can ‘shame' be a good thing? Stuart joined the podcast to discuss. (34:31)Hosted by William Moore and Lara Prendergast.Produced by Oscar Edmondson and Patrick Gibbons.

Apple TV's Severance wrapped its long-awaited 2nd season recently and left us with more answers than questions. But some answers! We (sorta) know what Severance is really all about, and we (sorta, maybe) know what Lumon is up to now! So while we wait the ungodly eternity for Severance to return, John and Kelly invited scholar Niki Dolfi on to talk about the cults, religious allusions, identity, and goats. Niki Dolfi researches Christian Nationalism and white supremacy (among other things) and explores the intersection of religion and popular entertainment. She enjoys British television and is longtime Whovian Niki is on Bluesky @profdolfi
