Podcasts about Keir Starmer

Sir Keir Starmer has insisted he has "never authorised" attacks on his cabinet ministers, calling briefings against them "unacceptable".Adam and Chris are joined by Alex Forsyth to discuss why this could be a sign of deeper problems for the Labour government, rather than just Westminster bubble gossip.Plus Adam and Alex give an update on Donald Trump's threat of legal action against the BBC, after Ed Davey questioned Keir Starmer on the matter at PMQs.

Conspiracy or cock-up? Westminster is abuzz after what appears to be a plan to decapitate Wes Streeting has spectacularly backfired. A flurry of late-night briefings designed to shore up Keir Starmer's position turned personal against the Health Secretary, suggesting he was plotting a coup in advance of the Budget and in anticipation of – what many expect will be – a poor showing at the local elections.Streeting was left to defend himself on the media round, confidently declaring he was a ‘faithful' and he also joked that he doesn't know the whereabouts of Shergar and believes the moon landings are real. There is only one clear winner from this whole debacle: Wes Streeting. Are the knives now out for the Prime Minister?Produced by Megan McElroy and Oscar Edmondson.

Westminster was thrown into chaos last night after Downing Street rushed to defend Sir Keir Starmer's leadership amidst whispers of 'coup' to oust the leader. Starmer's allies are pointing the finger at two of his top ministers, Health Secretary Wes Streeting and Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood, accusing them of “leadership manoeuvres”. But Streeting flat out denied he had any such plans during his media rounds, saying he was ‘a Faithful' in reference to the BBC series The Traitors.Camilla and Tim are joined by our Political Editor Ben Riley-Smith to ‘uncloak' the rumours, the rivalries and the truth behind Labour's latest psychodrama.We want to hear from you!

Ed Sheeran BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Ed Sheeran has been making international headlines over the past few days, blending music, advocacy, and business in ways few artists manage at his level. Perhaps the biggest headline comes from his high-profile appearance at Spotify's Billions Club Live event in Dublin on November 3, where Sheeran wowed thousands by performing live renditions of his biggest hits including Bam Bam I Don't Care Beautiful People and I See Fire. Video recaps from the night have gone viral, adding to the occasion's significance as it celebrated his landmark streaming achievements. Mix 92.9 reports that the event was not just a party for fans but also a testament to his commercial power in the streaming era, with social media flooded by clips and fan reactions.Sheeran is also deep into his LOOP world tour, recently announcing the massive North American leg that will see him hit Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas in July 2026. The continued sell-out tour is set to keep Ed's name in lights for months to come and sustain his already sky-high valuation—Trinyetra confirms his net worth as of 2025 sits comfortably at 200 million dollars, buoyed by his music and savvy investments in real estate and other ventures.On the business and charitable front, Ed Sheeran's recent advocacy has just sparked a sea change in UK music education. As reported by Record of the Day and AOL, Sheeran penned an open letter that directly spurred government action. His push led to new funding and reforms in the music curriculum across England, earning him personal praise from Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Labour leader Keir Starmer, highlighting his sway beyond music charts and into public policy.In parallel, Sheeran's early career history came full circle this week with the preservation of key grassroots music venues The Joiners in Southampton and The Croft in Bristol. These iconic establishments, which helped launch Sheeran's own career, were bought by the Own Our Venues Community Ownership Scheme. The move ensures a protected future for the spaces that nurture the UK's next wave of artists and amplifies Sheeran's role in safeguarding music's next generation.On social media, his Dublin performance and advocacy wins have both trended globally. While tabloids buzz with constant speculation over unreleased music and rumored A-list collaborations, no concrete new album announcements have surfaced this week. Still, Ed's combination of major live moments, social impact, and business prowess puts him squarely at the center of both entertainment headlines and industry conversations as the week closes.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

#UKPolitics #JonGaunt #LiveShow #UKNews #KeirStarmer #BBCBias #DavidLammy #AstonVilla #IslamistThugs #MigrantCrisis  What a SH!T Week for the UK – We All Need to Get a Grip:  Jon Gaunt on illegal migrant sex offenders on the run, income tax rises on the way and a Chancellor who looks out of her depth. The BBC once again showing its bias, David Lammy accused of lying in the Commons and not wearing a poppy, Islamist thugs driving Jewish fans out of the beautiful game at Aston Villa, and Prime Minister Keir Starmer hugging trees in Brazil while there's anarchy at home. Plus another thousand illegal migrants have arrived in last 24 hours!  "Things can only get better"… my arse.

Speaking at Cop30 in Brazil, the British prime minister, Keir Starmer, said the ‘consensus is gone' on tackling the climate crisis. It's an apt assessment because this week Australia's two major political parties have had very different commitments when it comes to climate action. The minister for climate change and energy, Chris Bowen, speaks to Guardian Australia's political editor, Tom McIlroy, about Labor's a free solar power scheme for some homes and the Coalition's continued infighting on emissions targets

Does anyone care about British farmers? Those ploughing the fields and harvesting crops certainly don't feel Westminster pays attention to them. So this week Westminster Insider finds out how the relationship between politics and farming – from post-Brexit trade deals to inheritance tax. She speaks to NFU President Tom Bradshaw about how Keir Starmer set up the promise of hope for farmers, before swiftly letting them down. Michael Gove, editor of the Spectator and former Conservative Environment, Farming and Rural Affairs (Defra) Secretary, admits the Australia trade deal did betray Britain's farmers. Emma Pryor, former special advisor to Defra Secretary George Eustice, explains how subsidies, which mean farmers can make a profit on producing food, changed after Brexit. And Sascha heads to rural South West Norfolk, where she speaks to Terry Jermy, the Labour MP who ousted Liz Truss. He tells her the new rules on inheritance tax are "unfortunate" and he hopes they are changed. Sascha gets on a tractor harvesting potatoes and speaks to farmers Danielle and Richard Gott. And she visits a farm run by Ed Pope which has turned 170 acres of the property into wildlife conservation.

PM Keir Starmer flies to the Brazilian rainforest for the COP30 climate conference, a trip he almost biffed off, but the surge in polling support for the Green party may have changed his mind. He'll join Prince William and the King out in the Amazon – at the same time as considering rolling back on some of the government's climate commitments. Back home, Chancellor Rachel Reeves faces criticism over her warnings for the next budget, while she brings in experts to school Labour MPs on how budgets, debts, and deficits actually work. And there's a mini recess for Westminster, so Sam and Anne have an extra few days off. They return on Monday.

De zaak tegen twee Britse mannen, verdacht van spionage voor China, is in het water gevallen. Niet omdat het bewijs tegen de twee ontbreekt, maar omdat Westminster niet hardop wil zeggen dat China een gevaar kan zijn voor de staatsveiligheid. De mannen zijn overigens niet eens blij met deze uitkomst, ze hadden graag voor de rechter hun onschuld bepleit. Ook in deze aflevering Is het probleem van Prince Andrew dan toch existentieel voor de Britse monarchie? Charles gaat in elk geval een stap verder dan voorheen gedacht. Zijn broer levert gedwongen al zijn titels in, zelfs die van Prins. De vraag is of dit offer genoeg is. De populariteit van het Britse koningshuis is op een dieptepunt beland. Waar het wel goed mee gaat? Corner shops. Deze typisch britse kleine kruidenierswinkeltjes zijn al vele malen afgeschreven als gedoemd, maar blijven populair. Wat zit daarachter? Over Van Bekhovens Britten In van Bekhovens Britten praten Lia van Bekhoven en Connor Clerx elke week over de grootste nieuwsonderwerpen en de belangrijkste ontwikkelingen in het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Van Brexit naar binnenlandse politiek, van de Royals tot de tabloids. Waarom fascineert het VK Nederlanders meer dan zo veel andere Europese landen? Welke rol speelt het vooralsnog Verenigd Koninkrijk in Europa, nu het woord Brexit uit het Britse leven lijkt verbannen, maar de gevolgen van de beslissing om uit de EU te stappen iedere dag duidelijker worden? De Britse monarchie, en daarmee de staat, staat voor grote veranderingen na de dood van Queen Elisabeth en de kroning van haar zoon Charles. De populariteit van het Koningshuis staat op een dieptepunt. Hoe verandert de Britse monarchie onder koning Charles, en welke gevolgen heeft dat voor de Gemenebest? In Van Bekhovens Britten analyseren Lia en Connor een Koninkrijk met tanende welvaart, invloed en macht. De Conservatieve Partij leverde veertien jaar op rij de premier, maar nu heeft Labour onder Keir Starmer de teugels in handen. Hoe ziet het VK er onder Keir Starmer uit? En hoe gaan de ‘gewone’ Britten, voor zover die bestaan, daar mee om? Al deze vragen en meer komen aan bod in Van Bekhovens Britten. Een kritische blik op het Verenigd Koninkrijk, waar het een race tussen Noord-Ierland en Schotland lijkt te worden wie zich het eerst af kan scheiden van het VK. Hoe lang blijft het Koninkrijk verenigd? Na ruim 45 jaar onder de Britten heeft Lia van Bekhoven een unieke kijk op het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Als inwoner, maar zeker geen anglofiel, heeft ze een scherpe blik op het nieuws, de politiek, de monarchie en het dagelijkse leven aan de overkant van de Noordzee.

Neoborn Caveman opens with a satirical reflection on life's mutual interactions and unfulfilled expectations, critiquing government and corporate intrusions—like dynamic pricing scams and AI coercion (e.g., Grok's 'hallucinations')—that undermine sovereignty and privacy. NC condemns Minnesota's teachers' union for promoting early sex education (including incest concerns), spotlights Jim McMurtry's Kafkaesque Canadian case, debunks alien/UFO distractions amid elite war games and military resource exploitation, and explores historical injustices through Proclamation 1625's Irish enslavement under British rule, calling for monarch reparations while drawing parallels to African slavery.

#Starmer #SadiqKhan #COP30 #UKPolitics #London #JonGaunt #Leadership #Rio #trainattack  As Britain faces shocking levels of violence and fear, Keir Starmer and Sadiq Khan have chosen to fly to Rio de Janeiro for COP30 — leaving behind a country that's on edge.  After the horrific train rampage that's left people terrified to travel, and another senseless murder of a man simply walking his dog, millions across the UK are asking: where is the leadership? Families are scared to walk the streets. Commuters don't feel safe getting on trains.  London feels broken — crime spiralling, police overstretched, public trust collapsing. Yet instead of facing the nation, Starmer has left it to the Home Secretary and David Lammy to front the response. That's not leadership — that's avoidance. In times of crisis, a Prime Minister should lead from the front, speak directly to the public, and stand with those who are suffering.  Tonight Jon Gaunt is asking:

Die Britse polisie sê daar is niks wat daarop dui dat die messteek-aanval aan boord van 'n Doncaster-Londen-trein Saterdag 'n terroriste-voorval was nie. Vier van die nege mense wat aanvanklik vermoed is, ernstig beseer is, is uit die hospitaal ontslaan, terwyl twee se toestand steeds ernstig is. Die eerste minister Keir Starmer het die aanval as afgryslik en diep kommerwekkend beskryf. Die Britse vervoerpolisie-superintendent John Loveless sê twee mense is in hegtenis geneem:

Die Amerikaanse ambassadeur in die Verenigde Koninkryk, Warren Stephens, het ‘n uitgebreide onderhoud met Sky News gevoer. Hy sê dat Keir Starmer se regering fouteer om reserwes van fossielbrandstof te ignoreer, beide in die Noordsee en die aanlandige bronne.

Standing in for Julia Hartley-Brewer, Alex Phillips storms the TALK airwaves with a blistering message: she's done with Labour's Sadiq Khan and Keir Starmer as Britain's streets drown in violence. “I have no way to defend myself,” she declares to the nation. In the same breath, she demands the George Cross for the heroic rail worker who risked everything to save passengers' lives. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

JonGaunt #Live #UKNews #TrainAttack #MassStabbing #Terrorism #CoverUp #KeirStarmer  A horrific stabbing on a packed UK train — yet Cops say it's not terrorism?! So what is it? Mental health? Lone wolf? Or something far darker that we're not being told?  If there's "no threat," why is security being ramped up at stations across the country? And why are the authorities so desperate to calm us down instead of giving straight answers?  Meanwhile, Keir Starmer is off to Brazil to "save the planet." Shouldn't he stay here and save Britain first? Our streets are violent, our communities scared — and the people want truth, not excuses.  

Matthew d'Ancona and Matt Kelly again respond to your queries. They discuss whether the Caerphilly by-election shows it's time for Keir Starmer finally to smell the roses on the EU, if opinion polls truly matter and whether Andy Burnham should support Lucy Powell for the Labour leadership. Plus they talk about how the media landscape has changed since the phone-hacking scandal, community tensions over asylum applications and the return of Mr Blobby.OFFER: Get The New World for just £1 for the first month.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with Robert Midgley, journalist and spokesperson for the Friends of British Overseas Territories, to expose what could be Keir Starmer's greatest political scandal yet — the quiet handover of the Chagos Islands to Mauritius.We unpack how this shocking deal — costing British taxpayers up to £47 billion — effectively gives away sovereign UK territory in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Robert reveals how the Labour government, under pressure from international legal activists like Philippe Sands, has undermined British sovereignty and endangered one of America's most strategic military bases, Diego Garcia.From allegations of corruption and hacked negotiations in Mauritius to the Chinese Communist Party's interest in the region, we examine how Britain's political and legal elite have allowed foreign powers to dictate national policy under the banner of “decolonisation.”We also explore the untold story of the Chagossian people — forcibly removed by the British government in the 1960s, yet still overwhelmingly pro-British today, despite decades of betrayal.All this — the Chagos scandal, the billions in taxpayer money, China's growing influence, and how Starmer's Labour is sleepwalking Britain into surrendering its sovereignty.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To see more exclusive content and interviews consider subscribing to my substack here: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Substack: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/X: https://twitter.com/mrwinmarshallInsta: https://www.instagram.com/winstonmarshallLinktree: https://linktr.ee/winstonmarshall Hosted on Acast.

With a month to go until the Budget, chancellor Rachel Reeves needs to find a projected £30bn to balance the books. And the forecasts are not in her favour, with the OBR's bigger than expected productivity downgrade dealing another blow to the Treasury this week. So where will the chancellor find the money – and if Labour have no choice but to break their manifesto tax pledge, where will that leave them with the electorate?

#Starmer #JonGauntLIVE #UKPolitics #BritainBurns #LabourParty #StopTheBoats #TalkRadio  Keir Starmer is off to Brazil to "save the planet" — while Britain is burning.  What about protecting our people?  What about stopping the boats?  What about the savage murders and chaos on our streets?  Jon Gaunt says it straight — Starmer is NOT on our side.

Global Commodities and UK Political Turmoil: Copper Prices Soar and Starmer's Tax U-Turn Guest: Simon Constable Simon Constable reports that copper prices are soaring to $5.18, up 20 percent, due to insufficient supply to meet demand from electric vehicles and artificial intelligence applications. In the United Kingdom, he notes Labour leader Keir Starmer reversed his tax pledge amidst poor productivity forecasts and failing reforms. Constable details the collapse of a high-profile China espionage case, possibly because UK espionage laws remain outdated from before World War I and China was not formally designated a hostile state at the time. He also highlights the troubling advice given by police to Israeli football fans to avoid attending a match due to safety concerns.

The deployment conveys the "shadow of power" over the Maduro regime but raises serious concerns about constitutional war powers, high opportunity costs for US global security, and the risk of occupation similar to Iraq. 945-1000 Analysis of US Carrier Deployment to Venezuela: Overkill for Drug Ops, Risk of Intervention Guests: Brad Bowman, Cameron McMillan Brad Bowman and Cameron McMillan analyze the massive US military buildup near Venezuela, including the USS Gerald Ford carrier strike group.

Drawing on the In re Neagle case from 1890, Yoo confirms the federal government's right to use force to execute its functions on American soil. He argues that governors opposing deployment are resisting federal law enforcement, akin to segregationists resisting integration. Yoo clarifies that states can adopt "sanctuary" policies by choosing not to cooperate with federal law, but they cannot constitutionally impede federal agents from carrying out their duties. 1145-1200 The Constitutional Authority to Deploy National Guard to Protect Federal Facilities Guest: Professor John Yoo Professor John Yoo discusses the President's inherent constitutional authority to use the National Guard to protect federal property and personnel during city disorder.

As the concept of ID cards rears its ugly head once again, Hannah and Jen are asking if Keir Starmer's revolutionary way of eliminating faff will be as effective as Brexit in terms of reducing bureaucracy.

Meanwhile, Henry VIII is repping Sexism of the Week via Hemel Hempstead, there are big international fixtures in Jenny off the Blocks, and thank God, as ever, for the French.

No one likes being unpopular, so you could forgive both of the UK's main political parties for wanting to look away when another damning poll dropped this week. Support for both parties has never been so low at the same time, the Green party is seeing record support and Reform UK continues to top the popularity contest. Does recent polling really suggest the end of the two-party hegemony? King of the pollsters John Curtice helps Politics Weekly UK read the runes. And, in the run-up to the budget next month, Keir Starmer has given the strongest indication yet that tax rises may be on the way, while immigration dominates headlines and the escaped sex offender whose case sparked protests at the Bell hotel in Epping is sent back to Ethiopia – with £500 in his back pocket. Pippa Crerar is joined by the Guardian columnist Gaby Hinsliff to discuss the government's game of immigration whack-a-mole and the consequences Labour could face if it breaks its manifesto pledge not to raise key taxes..
