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.

Labour is sticking to its manifesto pledge, confirming that it will give 16 and 17-year-olds the vote at the next general election. Announcing the decision, Keir Starmer said that they were old enough to pay taxes and should therefore get a say in the running of the country.But have Labour just inadvertently opened the door for two politicians incredibly popular with the young – Nigel Farage and Jeremy Corbyn? Camilla and Tim speak to Scarlett Maguire, founder of polling firm Merlin Strategy, who believes that Corbyn is the politician “potentially capable of mobilising and motivating this group”.Elsewhere, they also speak to Rachel Maskell, one of the four Labour MPs who had the whip removed yesterday for her part in the disastrous welfare rebellion, about what life is like under Starmer's leadership and the “insulting and unprofessional” comments made about her and her colleagues by party sources in the aftermath.Producers: Georgia Coan and Lilian Fawcett Senior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineyVideo Editor: Will WaltersAdditional Production: Amelia Clarke Studio Operator: Meghan Searle Hosted on Acast.

Starmer no despega

Hace un año Keir Starmer se convirtió en primer ministro tras ganar con mayoría absoluta las elecciones. Durante sus años en la oposición diagnosticó acertadamente los males del Reino Unido: una percepción de estancamiento, retroceso y decadencia nacional. Prometió restaurar la prosperidad y la esperanza mediante reformas moderadas y pragmáticas, no excesivamente ambiciosas, pero con metas concretas. Esta estrategia le permitió acceder al poder con una mayoría parlamentaria abrumadora. Una vez en el Gobierno, Starmer presentó su "Plan para el Cambio” enfocado en objetivos tangibles. El primero era la estabilidad económica, con baja inflación y finanzas públicas sólidas. Sin embargo, un año después, la inflación se mantiene casi un punto y medio por encima del objetivo del 2%. Los rendimientos de los bonos estatales a diez años han alcanzado máximos no vistos en dos décadas, y los laboristas han revertido los recortes que anunciaron en prestaciones sociales para cuadrar el presupuesto. En materia de seguridad fronteriza ha habido algún avance parcial. La migración neta se ha reducido a la mitad, aunque esto era previsible tras el pico de 2023. Starmer ha endurecido la política migratoria y se ha comprometido a reducir la cola de solicitantes de asilo pendientes. Para 2029, aspira a eliminar el uso de hoteles para alojarlos y planea repatriar a los rechazados. No obstante, los esfuerzos por desmantelar las redes de traficantes de personas han sido infructuosos: en 2024, 43.000 migrantes cruzaron el Canal en pateras, un 38% más que el año anterior. Donde Starmer ha brillado más es en el ámbito internacional. Ha proyectado una imagen de estadista consumado, se ha hecho incluso a Donald Trump, ha mejorado las relaciones con la Unión Europea y ha revisado la política de defensa. El Gobierno planea elevar el gasto en defensa del 2,3% al 2,6% sobre el PIB para 2027, con aspiraciones de llegar al 3,5% en 2035. Pero el eje central de su agenda, la economía, no ha despegado. Desde las elecciones, el crecimiento ha sido de un modesto 0,8%. La decisión de la canciller de Hacienda, Rachel Reeves, de aumentar las cotizaciones empresariales a la seguridad social en octubre fue duramente criticada, al igual que un proyecto de ley sobre derechos laborales, que ha generado descontento en el sector privado. Otro desafío pendiente es la vivienda. Los laboristas se propusieron construir 1,5 millones de nuevas viviendas en cinco años, pero hasta ahora solo se han levantado algo más de 200.000. Un proyecto de ley de planificación urbana avanza lentamente en el Parlamento y podría impulsar la construcción a largo plazo, pero no resuelve el problema de forma inmediata. En sanidad, el compromiso era mejorar el Servicio Nacional de Salud (NHS) poniendo el énfasis en la prevención, altas hospitalarias más rápidas y adopción de la inteligencia artificial. Pero las listas de espera para especialistas no han disminuido. En cuanto a la delincuencia, Starmer prometió reforzar la policía, lo que se está implementando, pero las estadísticas de criminalidad permanecen prácticamente idénticas a las de hace un año. La política energética también presenta luces y sombras. El secretario de Energía, Ed Miliband, levantó la moratoria sobre turbinas eólicas terrestres, ha aprobado grandes proyectos solares y ha creado GB Energy para posicionar al Reino Unido como superpotencia en energías limpias. El ambicioso objetivo es que el 95% de la electricidad provenga de fuentes bajas en carbono para 2030, frente al 58% actual. La operadora de la red nacional ha advertido que esto no es realista. Mientras tanto, las facturas de la luz siguen siendo elevadas para los consumidores. En resumen, tras un año en el poder, Starmer parece haber desperdiciado gran parte de su impulso inicial. A pesar de su amplia mayoría parlamentaria, su posición es más frágil de lo aparente: obtuvo solo el 32% de los votos, su popularidad está en mínimos históricos, y la derecha, aunque fragmentada, ha ganado terreno significativo. Con cuatro años por delante, el Gobierno laborista debe acelerar reformas para evitar que la percepción de crisis persista.

It can now be revealed that a Ministry of Defence data leak has cost the UK some £7 billion and put thousands of Afghans at risk of death. A dataset containing the details of nearly 19,000 people who applied to move to the UK following the Taliban takeover was released in error by a British defence official in February 2022.

Labour fought the 2024 general election on a manifesto which promised “a new way of doing government” – one built on the concept of mission-driven government. But how much has this government's decisions, trade-offs and policy priorities really been shaped by its five missions? And how far have they been able to make progress on their priorities in the first year? To mark the first year of Keir Starmer becoming prime minister, the Institute for Government and the Institute for Fiscal Studies hosted a joint event to explore what progress the government has made and whether Starmer's government is really doing things differently to its predecessors. Are the government's missions realistic or do they lack ambition? Have Rachel Reeves' tax and spending choices supported or hindered mission delivery? What did the spending review reveal about the government's priorities? How could government be better structured – and decisions made – in a way that is more mission-driven? And one year on since the general election, can the government really say it is governing in a “new way”? To explore these questions and more, the IfG and IFS brought together an expert panel featuring: Stephen Bush, Associate Editor and columnist at the Financial Times Helen Miller, Director of the Institute for Fiscal Studies Dr Gemma Tetlow, Chief Economist at the Institute for Government The event was chaired by Dr Hannah White, Director and CEO of the Institute for Government.

On today's podcast: sacré bleu – we have a one-in, one-out migration deal with France. In a press conference yesterday, Keir Starmer and President Macron announced a deal they hope will curb Channel crossings. But, as ever, the devil is in the detail, with some key concerns about the numbers and the time frame. Digital ID cards are also back on the agenda – after an intervention from former MI6 boss Alex Younger on Newsnight. The argument is that they could deter the ‘grey labour force' and make it harder to work in the UK for those arriving via unauthorised means. It's the Blairite policy that refuses to go away – but, as Michael Simmons argues, we may already have the infrastructure. It's not all rosy for the government, and we could well be heading for economic catastrophe. This follows the publication of the OBR's Fiscal Risks and Sustainability document. The language is polite, matter-of-fact and bureaucratic. But read between the lines, look at the numbers, and it paints a damning picture of the risks we face as a country.

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.

It would be an exaggeration to say the vultures are already circling the wagon - but there are already conversations taking place about Keir Starmer's future. Bloomberg and Sky have both reported that sources in Labour are already contemplating the prospect of a move against the PM next May after the local elections.Absolutely crucial to those results will be Wales. Labour has never been out of power since devolution in Wales - more than a quarter of a century ago. But if polling is to be believed, that could. all be about to change. Reform and Plaid Cymru, the Welsh independents, both appear to be edging ahead of Labour. And if that happens it could be a huge problem - both an existential challenge for Welsh Labour, and possibly for the PM himself. The stakes couldn't be much higher. And with that in mind, Lewis sat down with Eluned Morgan, the First Minister of Wales. In a wide-ranging interview, she talks frankly about her relationship with Keir Starmer, where she thinks Labour needs to move to stop the haemorrhaging of support, and gives one of the most frank assessments yet of Israel's actions in Gaza from a senior Labour figure.

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.

C dans l'air du 10 juillet 2025 : Nucléaire, immigration : l'axe Paris-LondresAlors que les attaques russes redoublent d'intensité en Ukraine et que le continent s'est lancé dans une course à l'armement, Paris et Londres ont annoncé être prêts à "coordonner" leurs dissuasions nucléaires pour protéger l'Europe de toute "menace extrême". Un "groupe de supervision nucléaire", coprésidé par l'Élysée et le Cabinet Office britannique, va être créé. Cette évolution majeure de leur doctrine a été officialisée par Emmanuel Macron et Keir Starmer, alors que le président de la République effectue une visite d'État au Royaume-Uni depuis plusieurs jours.Depuis plusieurs semaines, les deux dirigeants avaient promis de muscler la défense européenne face au désengagement des États-Unis. C'est chose faite. Mais qu'est-ce que cela signifie concrètement ? S'agit-il d'un tournant historique en matière de dissuasion nucléaire ? Le rapprochement franco-britannique signe-t-il le retour de "l'Entente cordiale" ?Invité par le roi Charles III, Emmanuel Macron est le premier chef d'État de l'Union européenne à se rendre outre-Manche depuis le Brexit, et le premier président français à effectuer une visite d'État au Royaume-Uni depuis Nicolas Sarkozy en 2008. Entre procession en calèche et dîner royal à Windsor, le couple présidentiel ont eu droit à tous les honneurs du protocole royal. Emmanuel Macron s'est également adressé au Parlement britannique, a coprésidé une réunion de la "coalition des volontaires" avec Keir Starmer, et a participé à un sommet qualifié par certains de… réconciliation.Au-delà de la défense, Londres et Paris s'apprêtent à annoncer de nouvelles mesures pour lutter contre l'immigration clandestine dans la Manche, un dossier qui empoisonne les relations bilatérales depuis plusieurs années.Autre point de friction : Donald Trump. Le président américain, revenu sur le devant de la scène, menace d'imposer de nouveaux droits de douane. Une inquiétude partagée des deux côtés de la Manche. Tandis que Keir Starmer s'est dit prêt à satisfaire les exigences de Washington pour conclure rapidement un accord, Paris et Bruxelles ont jusqu'au 1er août 2025 pour tenter, à leur tour, de négocier un compromis.LES EXPERTS :- ANTHONY BELLANGER - Éditorialiste - Franceinfo TV, spécialiste des questions internationales- JOSEPHINE STARON - Directrice des études et des relations internationales – Synopia- CATHERINE NORRIS TRENT - Grand reporter -France 24- PATRICK DUTARTRE - Général de l'armée de l'Air et de l'Espace, ancien pilote de chassePRÉSENTATION : Caroline Roux - Axel de Tarlé - REDIFFUSION : du lundi au vendredi vers 23h40.PRODUCTION DES PODCASTS: Jean-Christophe ThiéfineRÉALISATION : Nicolas Ferraro, Bruno Piney, Franck Broqua, Alexandre Langeard, Corentin Son, Benoît LemoinePRODUCTION : France Télévisions / Maximal ProductionsRetrouvez C DANS L'AIR sur internet & les réseaux :INTERNET : francetv.frFACEBOOK : https://www.facebook.com/Cdanslairf5TWITTER : https://twitter.com/cdanslairINSTAGRAM :https://www.instagram.com/cdanslair/

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.

Speaking to the Times he said: ‘There are no grounds for strike action now. Resident doctors have just received the highest pay award across the entire public sector. The Government can't afford to offer more and it wouldn't be fair to other NHS workers either, many of whom are paid less'. Is Wes Streeting right? And who's going to come out on top – the Health Secretary or the junior doctors?

Macron's Right: UK Is a Soft Touch for Migrants #UKMigration #MigrantCrisis #EmmanuelMacron #StopTheBoats #UKPolitics #JonGaunt In this video, Jon Gaunt tackles the migrant crisis gripping Britain. French President Emmanuel Macron has called the UK a “soft touch” for illegal migrants—and he's not wrong. The UK has already paid France over £500 million to “stop the boats,” yet Channel crossings continue to surge. While British taxpayers fund France's failed promises, UK Border Force struggles with the endless stream of migrant boats. Even King Charles has now mentioned “irregular migration” in his speech—words carefully scripted by Keir Starmer's government. It's clear: Britain's immigration policy is broken. Watch as Jon Gaunt exposes: - The £500 million wasted on France - Emmanuel Macron's brutal words about the UK - How Starmer's government is quietly shifting the migration narrative - Why the migrant crisis keeps escalating. This is a MUST-WATCH for anyone fed up with illegal migration, weak border controls, and political double-speak.
