Last week Prince Harry settled his outstanding claims with the Mirror titles – but only after he took them to court – where a judge ruled the Prince had been the subject of extensive phone hacking by Mirror Group Newspapers. We explore the meaning of the verdict and the resulting settlement. Is traditional broadcast TV dead? Piers Morgan seems to think so – he's leaving his nightly TV show and setting up shop on YouTube. Ben Smith from Semafor, who broke the story, joins us. Also on the programme we discuss Disney's new partnership with the Fortnite online platform plus Gillian Reynolds explains what made the late Steve Wright a radio legend.

Prince Harry won his phone hacking lawsuit in December against the publisher of the Daily Mirror and was awarded over 140,000 pounds ($180,000) in the first of his several lawsuits against British tabloids to go to trial. Justice Timothy Fancourt in the High Court found phone hacking was “widespread and habitual” at Mirror Group Newspapers over many years and private investigators “were an integral part of the system” to gather information unlawfully. He said executives at the papers were aware of the practice and covered it up. Fancourt said he awarded the Duke of Sussex damages for 15 of the 33 newspaper articles in question at trial that were the result of unlawful information gathering and resulted in the misuse of Harry's private information. Harry, the estranged younger son of King Charles III, had sought 440,000 pounds ($560,000) as part of a crusade against the British media that bucked his family's longstanding aversion to litigation and made him the first senior member of the royal family to testify in court in over a century. His appearance in the witness box over two days in June created a spectacle as he threw allegations that Mirror Group Newspapers had employed journalists who eavesdropped on voicemails and hired private investigators to use deception and unlawful means to learn about him and other family members. “I believe that phone hacking was at an industrial scale across at least three of the papers at the time,” Harry asserted in the High Court. “That is beyond any doubt.” The case is the first of three lawsuits Harry has brought to court against the tabloids over allegations of phone hacking or some form of unlawful information gathering. They form the front line of attack in what he says is his life's mission to reform the media. Harry's beef with the news media runs deep and is cited throughout his memoir, “Spare.” He blames paparazzi for causing the car crash that killed his mother, Princess Diana, and he said intrusions by journalists led him and his wife, Meghan, to leave royal life for the U.S. in 2020.

The phone hacking scandal was part of the origin story of Byline Times, prompting founding editor Peter Jukes to switch careers from playwriting to journalism.In the latest episode of the Byline Times podcast he joins Adrian Goldberg and Byline Times Chief Reporter Josiah Mortimer to reflect on Prince Harry's recent court victory against Mirror Group Newspapers. In his verdict, the judge Mr Justice Fancourt, described phone hacking across the Mirror group as "widespread and habitual". This was during a period when Piers Morgan - who has always denied phone hacking - was a senior figure in the organisation.Peter Jukes suggests that rather than holding the powerful to account, parts of the British press have run a 'protection racket', using their power to threaten politicians who don't bend to their will.Produced in Birmingham by Adrian Goldberg and Harvey White.

SUE chairman Stuart Waiton claims that: "the clear sense of what education is, is being lost – lost not least of all as a consequence of the politicisation of the curriculum and the overloading of education with adult (elite) concerns about everything other than the very thing that schools are there to provide."

Prince Harry achieved a significant legal victory against Mirror Group Newspapers in his phone hacking lawsuit, with the High Court awarding him approximately $180,000 in damages. This lawsuit is the first of several against British tabloids to go to trial in Harry's ongoing battle with the press.Justice Timothy Fancourt found that phone hacking at Mirror Group Newspapers was "widespread and habitual" over many years. He stated that private investigators were an integral part of this system for unlawfully gathering information about Harry and his associates. The judge also pointed out that executives at the papers were aware of these practices and actively covered them up.In his decision, Fancourt determined that the newspapers had invaded Prince Harry's privacy by using illegal methods to produce 15 out of the 33 articles examined during the trial. These articles were part of a larger sample of nearly 150 articles that Harry cited in his lawsuit.Reacting to the ruling, Prince Harry stated that the judgment was "vindicating and affirming" and should serve as a warning to other media outlets that used similar practices. He referred to the verdict as a victory for "truth, as well as accountability" and emphasized the importance of a free and honest press.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4522904/advertisement

More than a year after four University of Idaho students were murdered in their beds…the house where the slayings happened is being torn down. The demolition will begin just a few days after Christmas, and as Steven Fabian reports, the families of the victims are not ok with the decision. Prince Harry says he feels vindicated by a UK judge's ruling that his phone was indeed hacked by the publisher of the Mirror Group Newspapers. The case is one of several the prince has lodged against the media…and the win is being called 'historic.' Plus, it was an embarrassing moment for a woman who was arrested for inappropriate behavior on the beach…nine months later she was found dead. Was she so ashamed she took her own life? We warn you some of the details are graphic for younger viewers. And former First Lady Melania Trump made a rare public appearance today, welcoming new U.S. citizens in Washington D.C. Organizers say, as the only first lady in history who is a naturalized U.S. citizen, she was the perfect choice.

On the version of Hot off the Wire posted Dec. 15 at 6:45 a.m. CT: LONDON (AP) — Prince Harry has won his phone hacking lawsuit against the publisher of the Daily Mirror and was awarded over 140,000 pounds ($180,000) in the first of his several lawsuits against the tabloids to go to trial. Justice Timothy Fancourt in the High Court found on Friday that phone hacking was “widespread and habitual” at Mirror Group Newspapers over many years. He says private investigators were used substantially and “were an integral part of the system” to gather information unlawfully. He says executives at the papers were aware of it and covered it up. Harry had sought 440,000 pounds ($560,000) in the case as part of a crusade against the British media. COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — A prosecutor in Denmark says authorities are holding two people in custody and four others are the target of a terrorism investigation. The case coincides with one arrest in the Netherlands and several in Germany of alleged Hamas members. Denmark hasn't said there is a Hamas link. But authorities in Germany said that three people arrested there are suspected of preparing for attacks Jewish institutions in Europe. Danish authorities say that one person was arrested in the Netherlands. But it wasn't clear if there were any ties to the Hamas investigation in Germany. The prosecutor said Friday that the two suspects being held in Denmark were ordered to remain in pretrial detention until Jan. 9. The whereabouts of the other four weren't immediately known. RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) — The United States national security adviser is set to meet with the Palestinian president to discuss postwar arrangements for Gaza. A senior U.S. official says this could include reactivating Palestinian security forces driven out by Hamas in 2007. The proposal was presented as one of several. It was the first specific indicator of Washington's vision for security arrangements in Gaza if Israel achieves its U.S.-backed objective of the war: To end Hamas control of the besieged enclave. Any role for Palestinian security forces in Gaza is bound to elicit strong opposition from Israel, which seeks to maintain an open-ended security presence there. BEIJING (AP) — Two subway trains have collided in heavy snow in Beijing, sending 515 people to the hospital, including 102 with broken bones. Authorities said Friday the accident occurred the previous evening in Beijing's mountainous west on an above-ground portion of the sprawling subway system's Changping line. They say slippery tracks prompted automatic braking on the leading train. A train following from behind was on a descending section and went into a skid and was unable to brake in time. Emergency medical personnel, police and transport authorities responded, and all passengers were evacuated by about 11 p.m. Twenty-five passengers were under observation and 67 remained hospitalized on Friday morning. WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. officials recently seized more than 1.4 million illegal e-cigarettes from overseas manufacturers, including the company behind Elf Bar. The fruity disposable products have become the top choice among underage American teens who vape. The Food and Drug Administration pegged the value of the e-cigarettes seized at Los Angeles Airport at $18 million. Many were mislabeled as toys, shoes and other household items in order to evade customs, officials said. In May, the FDA instructed customs officials to begin seizing shipments from the Chinese manufacturer behind Elf Bar. It's the first time U.S. authorities have reported successfully blocking the company's imports. NEW YORK (AP) — Three major U.S. retailers — Amazon, Target and Walmart — say they're suspending sales of water-bead products marketed to young children due to growing safety concerns. Water beads are small, colorful balls made of superabsorbent polymers. They're are often sold as toys, including in craft activity kits, and as sensory tools for children with developmental disabilities. But warnings about the dangers of the beads being ingested have been piling up. According to the US Consumer Product Safety Commission, an estimated 7,800 water bead-related injuries were treated in hospital emergency rooms between 2016 and 2022.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — As the age-old adage goes, don't mess with success. On Wednesday, comedian Trevor Noah announced that he will once again host the Grammy Awards in 2024. For those keeping count, the 66th Grammys marks his fourth consecutive year of hosting duties. Noah shared the news Wednesday night on his podcast “What Now? With Trevor Noah.” The 2024 Grammy Awards will air Feb. 4 live on CBS and Paramount+ from the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. SZA heads into the 2024 ceremony with a leading nine nominations. Phoebe Bridgers has the second-most nominations, with seven. LOS ANGELES (AP) — Mickey Mouse is about to belong to you and me. The earliest version of Disney's most famous character, and arguably the most iconic character in American pop culture, will become public domain on Jan. 1, 2024. That's because the copyright on his first screen appearance, the 1928 short “Steamboat Willie,” is expiring. Many experts thought the day would never come. Congress in the past has extended the copyright period to assure it didn't happen. Minnie Mouse, who also appears in “Steamboat Willie,” also becomes public domain, as does Winnie the Pooh's friend Tigger as the book in which he first appeared in, “The House at Pooh Corner,” turns 96. INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Two-time ABA champion and three-time NBA All-Star George McGinnis has died. He was 73. McGinnis was considered one of the best prep players to play in the basketball-rich state of Indiana. He spent two seasons with the Indiana Hoosiers, earning third team All-American honors in the only season he actually played. McGinnis then became one of the first underclassmen to play professional basketball, joining the Indiana Pacers in 1971. He also played for the Philadelphia 76ers and Denver Nuggets before finishing his 11-year career back with the Pacers. He was the ABA's 1974-75 MVP and a three-time ABA All-Star. The Raiders stick it to the Chargers, the Celtics remain perfect at home, another triple double for Nicola Jokic, and the Blues coaching change works as they drew it up.  The National Football League continues to make incremental, widespread progress in its diversity hiring practices, according to an annual report. The report card from The Institute for Diversity and Ethics in Sport at Central Florida gave the NFL an overall grade of a B-plus, which is the highest mark for the league since the study began in 1988. The league received a B-plus mark for racial hiring and a B for gender hiring. NEW YORK (AP) — Six jerseys worn by soccer superstar Lionel Messi during Argentina's winning run at last year's World Cup have sold for $7.8 million. The auction house Sotheby's says Thursday's final price for the shirts is the highest price for an item of sports memorabilia this year, Sotheby's said. Argentina defeated France in a penalty shootout after a 3-3 draw in the World Cup final in Qatar. The victory represented a crowning moment for one of the sport's greatest-ever players. The shirts were on display at Sotheby's New York headquarters during the two-week online auction that ended Thursday. No information on the winning bidder was released. —The Associated Press About this program Host Terry Lipshetz is a senior producer for Lee Enterprises.

A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein and I am your host for this show. How often do you wake up in the morning with a long list of to-dos and just want to crawl back under your duvet? Or come back from lunch, look at your desk and just go “naw, just not in the mood”? If it's more times that you would like, you are not alone. If you are a living human being, it's going to happen. You are going to have good days and bad. It's perfectly normal and not something you should beat yourself up about. However, sometimes that lack of motivation to do the work, can be untimely. You may have a deadline, an urgent matter to deal with or some preparation for a meeting to complete. What can you do in these circumstances? Well, that's the topic of this week's podcast.  And so, to get things started, let me hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question.  This week's question comes from Mohammed, Mohammed asks, Hi Carl, how do you stay so motivated each day? I really struggle with this. When I get up in the morning, I feel demotivated and just don't want to get up. Do you have any suggestions on how to wake up feeling more motivated?  Hi Mohammed, thank you for your question.  There are a number ways you can wake up feeling more motivated and energised for the day. One simple trick is to make sure you get enough sleep. We all need between six and eight hours of sleep each night although we differ on the optimum number—for example, I discovered I needed seven hours, twenty minutes, not the six I thought I needed, I've learnt if I sleep less than seven hours, I will not have a very productive day and will likely need to take a nap sometime in the early afternoon.  You can discover your optimum daily sleep hours by doing a simple test. For one week, sleep with no alarm and track how many hours you sleep. At the end of the seven days, total up the number of hours you slept and divide it by seven. That will give you the number of hours you actually need, rather than guessing the number.  Once you know your optimum number of sleep hours, set yourself a going to bed time (thirty minutes before you need to be asleep) and stick to it.  I know this may require you to change a few things. If you are in the habit of scrolling social media or watching TV late at night, you may need to adjust the amount of time you spend doing these things. But I can assure you once you dial in your sleep patterns, you will soon find yourself waking up feeling a lot better than you likely do right now.  While sleep is not going to affect your motivation, it will ensure you have the energy to get through the day.  Now, what about motivation. This has everything to do with your mindset about the work you do. If you see your work purely in monetary terms, you are going to feel demotivated. Money as has been discovered is a poor long-term motivator. Sure if someone offered you a lot of money to do something, it's probable you will do it as long as it does not conflict with your personal values—after all the saying “everyone has their price” is largely true. But is it the money that motivates you or what you think you could do with the money?  As Daniel Pink discovered several years ago, there's an amount of money you need to earn to live and anything above that figure will not motivate you. Daniel Pink set that amount at around $70,000 per year. Beyond that, because it does not affect your ability to eat, have a roof over your head or the financial ability to take a holiday once or twice a year, money no longer provides an incentive. (Although we think it does) It might be nice to buy an expensive watch or to own a luxury beach-side villa in the Mediterranean, but your needs—food, and shelter are taken care of and material things are not going to motivate you when it comes to getting up in the morning to do your work.  I'm currently reading about Robert Maxwell. In case you do not know, Robert Maxwell was the chairman of Mirror Group Newspapers in the 1980s and early 1990s. (If you are listening in the US, Maxwell also bought the New York Daily News) Maxwell, it turns out was a crook. He was stealing money from not only his public companies, he also stole his employees pension funds and owed multiple banks many millions of dollars when he died in 1991.  Maxwell didn't steal all this money because he wanted more material things. He already had a helicopter, private jet, a yacht and multiple homes. He stole this money because he desperately wanted to maintain his identity and reputation. His self image prevented him from being able to cut back his excesses and it ultimately destroyed him and many thousands of Mirror Group employees' pensions.  Maxwell's motivation each day was his need to maintain his empire and his image as a high-flying successful business giant. It ultimately failed and he was soon exposed for the person he was.  However, beyond narcissism—which can be a very powerful motivator, What does motivate people is the sense we are doing something worthwhile. And that is controlled by what we want to accomplish in life.  My first job was cleaning the changing areas in a hotel health club. It was three hours a day six days a week and I loved it. It was not the work that I loved, that was hard, but I saw it as an education. I was given autonomy on what I cleaned and when and that allowed me to feel I was in control. I took pride in ensuring the showers were spotless when I had finished. That the floors were clean and the towels were neatly stacked in each changing room. I learned about systems and processes for getting my work done and it began my fascination with how to accomplish my work in the most efficient way.  All my early jobs taught me valuable lessons. I saw each one as an education and valuable experience. Working in hotels taught me the importance of standards. Selling cars taught me about the art of selling, working in law taught me about integrity and professionalism.  No matter what work you do, whether you love it or hate it, it is giving you an education. You don't become the CEO directly out of university, you have to learn through experience, make mistakes and understand the intricacies and nuances of managing people. You don't become a surgeon straight out of medical school. You have to do your shifts in the emergency rooms, do the rounds and learn from your peers.  When you begin the day, you have a new opportunity to learn something and move your career forward. You also have the choice to go into to work and complain about how much you hate it, come home, scroll through social media looking at people doing what you want to do and feeling jealous and thinking about how unfair life is.  You also have the choice to go into work and instead of hating what you do, look for ways to improve it. It wasn't pleasant scrubbing walls in the showers, but I learned how to do it better and even today, I use what I learned when I clean my bathroom. Weirdly, I feel a sense of pride in my abilities to clean a bathroom and make a bed (another thing I learned working in hotels)  What else can you do to motivate yourself to get up in the morning? One trick that works is to have a morning routine you love doing. Something you look forward to doing. For instance, making my morning coffee, writing my journal and cleaning my email inbox is pure joy for me. I look forward to sitting down with my coffee and writing whatever's in my mind into my journal. I also enjoy clearing my email inbox. I have no idea what will be in there. There could be problems, kind comments, newsletters and spam. Each day is different. I also gamify it by timing how fast I can clear my inbox. I especially enjoy the days where I have 100+ emails to process. Learning those in less than 25 minutes always makes me smile.  What would you love doing in a morning that will take less than forty-five minutes? Experiment, and see what excites you.  Another way to avoid that dread of a new day is to ensure you have a plan for the day before you go to bed. This is a psychological trick you can use that will motivate you in a morning called “implementation intention”. Your plan for the day gives you the intention to get it done. Writing these out in a journal in a morning reinforces it. For instance, I could have begun today by planning to write this podcast script. I would have make sure that was flagged in my task manger before I finished the previous day and when I wrote my journal I would write it out again.  Be careful here, if you write more than two or three things you will fail. There are too many unknowns that could come at you in the day, so limiting it to two tasks makes it doable no matter what is thrown at you.  Finally, what are your long term goals. Where do you want to be in five, ten or twenty years time? If you don't know what's the point of getting up in a morning? You don't have to have lofty expansive goals, it could be you want to learn something new such as photography, or graphic design. Perhaps you would like to learn to swim or play golf. Having something to aim for gives you purpose and purpose gives you motivation and motivation gives you energy.  So there you go, Mohammed. Make sure you are getting enough sleep, you have the right mindset for your work or studies, that you have a plan for the day and you have something long-term to aim for. It surprising how these can transform your life and make getting up in the morning something you are excited about.  Thank you for your question and than you to you too for listening. It just remains for me to wish you all a very very productive week.   

This is the Royal Rota - our weekly podcast about the royal family, with ITV News Royal Editor Chris Ship and Producer Lizzie Robinson. This week, Chris and Lizzie dissect Prince Harry's historic high court trial, having attended the trial last week. They also look ahead to King Charles' celebrations for Trooping the Colour.Mirror Group Newspapers, which includes the Sunday Mirror and Sunday People denies they have used illegal methods to gather stories about the prince.

Prince Harry gifted a copy of his tell-all memoir ‘Spare' to a flight attendant on his way back to the US after appearing in the UK to give evidence against Mirror Group Newspapers.

The Duke of Sussex aka Prince Harry is taking the media to task over intrusion into his private life which he claims crossed a line into illegality; He believes that Mirror Group Newspapers – publishers of the Daily Mirror, the Sunday Mirror and The People published details about his private life that could only have been obtained by hacking or other unlawful means; MGN is contesting the claim. More than 100 people in total are involved in the High Court action; Harry's is just one of four representative cases being heard. He also has cases pending against the Sun and the Daily Mail's Publishers – and in his statement to the court, he launched a broader attack on the press, warning that “democracy fails when your press fails to scrutinse and hold the government accountable, and instead choose to get into bed with them so they can ensure the status quo”. That could almost be a mission statement for the Byline Times which grew out our executive editor Peter Jukes' desire to tell the truth about the phone hacking scandal.

The Duke of Sussex aka Prince Harry is taking the media to task over intrusion into his private life which he claims crossed a line into illegality; He believes that Mirror Group Newspapers – publishers of the Daily Mirror, the Sunday Mirror and The People published details about his private life that could only have been obtained by hacking or other unlawful means; MGN is contesting the claim.   More than 100 people in total are involved in the High Court action; Harry's is just one of four representative cases being heard.   He also has cases pending against the Sun and the Daily Mail's Publishers – and in his statement to the court, he launched a broader attack on the press, warning that “democracy fails when your press fails to scrutinse and hold the government accountable, and instead choose to get into bed with them so they can ensure the status quo”.   That could almost be a mission statement for the Byline Times which grew out our executive editor Peter Jukes' desire to tell the truth about the phone hacking scandal.

Intro: Minutes 0 to 7:45 We have two new writers, Carina and Kismet, and two new comment moderators. Everyone is so great! I watched Somebody Somewhere on HBO and loved it. I also saw the Duggar documentary on Amazon, Shiny Happy People. It was well done but hard to take. Chandra loved Succession but found Ted Lasso lacking. She also liked Cocaine Bear but hated Scream 6. Royals: Minutes 7:45 to 23:15 This week Prince Harry testified in his case against The Mirror Group newspapers. He was composed under cross examination, he made a compelling case and he made so many headlines. His witness statement was heartbreaking. A lot of these details were left out of Spare, probably because of his ongoing lawsuits. He called out Piers Morgan for publishing hurtful stories about his mother in the months leading up to her death and for harassing him and Meghan recently. This lawsuit covers up to 2011 so that's why Meghan isn't included, which is confusing to the British media. This case is about 33 articles published about Harry. His side only has to prove that hacking was involved in one of them. While Harry was testifying the firm sent out Princess Kate to try to pull focus. She went to the Windsor Family Hub on Tuesday and apparently the women at the center were only given a half hour notice that she was coming with photographers. Then on Wednesday she did a rugby event.  In an obvious move to avoid Harry, Charles announced to the press ahead of time that he would be at his place in Transylvania this week. He came back to London after five days though. William and Kate went to Crown Prince Hussein's royal wedding in Jordan last week and looked just as pissed off at each other as they always do. I play a clip where we talked about that on Zoom. The Middletons are getting exposed for their shady business dealings. They owe millions to creditors and had to sell Party Pieces in a fire sale. We mention how Kate pulled focus from Charles and Camilla at the Chelsea Flower Show. Taylor Swift: Minutes 23:15 to 28:15 Taylor Swift and Matt Healy broke up this week just about a month after we first heard about them. It's very likely he was the reason for her breakup with Joe Alwyn. He's the frontman for the band The 1975 and he's said and done some racist and anti-Semitic things recently that there's no way Taylor didn't know about. Taylor did a collaboration with Ice Spice, whom Healy was racist about, which makes it seem like Taylor and Matt were together longer than they claimed. There were a bunch of stories about how close they were until their breakup, when outlets made it sound like it was a fling. It's been amazing to watch Taylor's fans hold her accountable. Comments of the Week: Minutes 28:15 to end Chandra's comment of the week is from Aud on the post about the Middletons stiffing their creditors. Chandra wonders why neither Prince William nor James Mathews, Pippa's husband, has helped the Middletons out. My comment of the week is from Slush on the post about Martha Stewart telling people to go into the office while she works from home. Chandra remembers Martha's interview where she said her workers needed to be available to take calls at any time. I read that interview and she fired a guy for not talking to her on a Sunday – when he was taking a bath! Thanks for listening bitches!

Een historische week in het VK: Harry, de freelance prins in Montecito Californië laat zich als eerste 'royal' in ruim 130 jaar onderwerpen aan een kruisverhoor in zijn rechtszaak tegen Mirror Group Newspapers. De inzet: Harry beschuldigt de uitgever van het hacken van zijn telefoon, 'blagging' - het je voordoen als iemand anders om privé-gegevens in te kunnen zien, en het oneigenlijke gebruik van maar liefst 25 privé-detectives om hem te volgen. Wat van een afstandje wellicht op een showproces lijkt, heeft mogelijk zeer ingrijpende gevolgen. Harry is op kruistocht om de Britse schandaalpers te hervormen, en is één van de weinigen met zakken diep genoeg om door te zetten. Dat Harry een vreemde eend in de koninklijke bijt is moge duidelijk zijn. Waar de rest van zijn familie zich publiekelijk buiten de politiek houdt, schrijft Harry in zijn getuigenverklaring dat de pers en regering in het VK de bodem hebben bereikt.  Wat gebeurt er als Harry wint, welke gevolgen heeft dat voor het koningshuis, de Britse pers en de gewone Brit? En kan Harry zich ooit nog vertonen in het VK als hij verliest?  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 op handen 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 levert al dertien jaar de premier, komt daar na Rishi Sunak een einde aan? Hoe zou het VK er onder Keir Starmer van Labour uitzien? 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.

Prince Harry has given evidence for the first time at the High Court in his legal battle against Mirror Group Newspapers. The Duke of Sussex set out his case in a 55-page document, blaming the tabloid press for "inciting hatred and harassment" in his private life, and casting him as a "playboy prince" and a "thicko". He also faced cross-examination from the newspaper's lawyer who questioned the prince's claims that information in the stories were obtained illegally. On the Sky News Daily, Leah Boleto is joined by Sky's royal correspondent, Laura Bundock, outside the court in central London to go through the events of the day.

Prince Harry has launched a fierce attack on what he calls the "vile" press. The Duke of Sussex and 100 others is accusing Mirror Group Newspapers of widespread unlawful information-gathering between 1991 and 2011. He's told the High Court in London he blames the tabloids for destroying his adolescence and later relationships. Europe Correspondent Gavin Grey told Kate Hawkesby they looked at 140 stories over a 14-year-period since 1996, which made for interesting evidence. He says the defence keeps pointing out Prince Harry has no direct evidence that hacking took place, it's just his suspicion. He adds the defence also stressed every story he referred to had also appeared in other newspapers as well. LISTEN ABOVE  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
