As Labour rebels appear to have forced concessions from Keir Starmer over welfare this week, former Conservative MP Steve Baker joins James Heale to reflect on his own time as a rebel, and to provide some advice to Labour MPs. Steve, an MP for 14 years and a minister under Theresa May, Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak, tells James about the different rebellions he was a part of (from Brexit to Covid), explains how to organise a successful one and reveals how he has lost close friends when he has made the decision to compromise.He also blames Labour's problems on their ‘bombs not benefits' approach, explains why the current welfare rebellion demonstrates that ‘the facts of life are Conservative' and argues that it has been a mistake for the Conservatives not the support Labour's original approach to reducing the winter fuel allowance.Produced by Patrick Gibbons and Megan McElroy.

Jeffrey Archer is one of the best-selling writers in the world, and he is our guest today. He talks to Gyles about his childhood in Weston-Super-Mare, his indomitable mother, his wicked granny, and how he was fired from his job at the local cricket ground for his entrepreneurial afternoon tea scheme. He tells Gyles about his university days, about meeting his wife, Mary, and about meeting the Beatles. He talks about his career as an MP, how he almost became bankcrupt and started writing novels. And, of course, he talks about going to prison for perjury and the lessons that experience taught him. Plus he talks about Margaret Thatcher and the qualities that made her such a successful politician. This is a fascinating interview about a truly fascinating life. Jeffrey's new book, An Eye for an Eye, is out now. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

There'll be a by-election in Auckland in the coming weeks, following the death of Te Pati Māori MP Takutai Tarsh Kemp early yesterday. She was 50 and had been battling kidney disease. Kemp's body has arrived at Hoani Waititi Marae this morning, where she will lie in state for mourners to visit, before her tangi on Tuesday. Newstalk ZB's Jason Walls told Ryan Bridge it's almost certain Labour's Peeni Henare will run for the seat, and would be likely to win. He says Te Pati Maori would need to find a new candidate and would be hard pressed to find someone with better name recognition than Henare – unless John Tamihere himself ran.

Send us a textEver wonder what really happens backstage at major hip-hop concerts? The recent Summer Jam Hot 97 event became a hotbed of controversy when footage emerged showing an altercation between C-Black and members of Meek Mill's Dream Chasers crew. Now, for the first time, the young cameraman who captured that viral moment speaks out.In this raw and unfiltered conversation, 20-year-old content creator MP takes us behind the scenes of Summer Jam, revealing how C-Black invited him backstage to network and build his brand. With remarkable candor, MP describes meeting hip-hop heavyweights like Jim Jones, Meek Mill, and Jadakiss before witnessing the confrontation that would soon dominate social media feeds across the culture.MP dismantles several widely-circulated claims about the incident. According to his firsthand account, C-Black wasn't overwhelmed by thirty attackers but actually "gave them niggas so much of their money" in the fight. He categorically denies reports that C-Black had dreads pulled out during the altercation, calling those statements "all cap." Most surprisingly, MP reveals he never intended to share the footage publicly—it was accidentally sent while exchanging texts about Summer Jam content.Throughout our conversation, MP's remorse is palpable as he repeatedly apologizes to C-Black and takes "full accountability" for his role in the footage becoming public. Despite the fallout, he expresses continued respect for C-Black and even recounts how simply mentioning C-Black's name had opened doors for him with other artists just days before the incident. The interview provides crucial context to a viral moment that had previously been shaped primarily by speculation and secondhand accounts.Want the real story behind hip-hop's most talked-about recent incident?

This week we're looking at the representation of disabled people in politics. Why are there so few disabled politicians? What impact does that have? And what can be done to level the playing field? While one in five people in the UK is disabled, the proportion of disabled individuals among elected representatives is significantly lower. Despite broader discussions on inclusive politics, disability remains an often-overlooked aspect of the conversation. For many people working in this area, addressing such challenges isn't just about fairness; it's also about ensuring that disabled citizens have their voices heard in political decision-making. A new book addressing these challenges was published last year, and a recent article in The Political Quarterly highlights its key themes. The book and article explore the structural barriers that disabled candidates and politicians face and provide actionable recommendations for change. In this episode, we speak with the co-authors of both the book and the article: Prof Elizabeth Evans – Professor of Politics at the University of Southampton. Dr Stefanie Reher – Reader in Political Science at the University of Strathclyde. Join us as we discuss the systemic obstacles, potential solutions, and the importance of disability-inclusive politics. Mentioned in this episode: Stefanie Reher and Elizabeth Evans.

In this episode, we chat to Honourable Shane Jones, member of the NZ government and the Minister for Oceans and Fisheries, Minister for Regional Development, Minister for Resources, Associate Minister of Finance, and Associate Minister for Energy. Shane entered Parliament in 2005 and joined New Zealand First as an MP in 2017. As a proud born and bred Northlander, Shane has always asked the tough questions, identified policy solutions, and accelerated implementation in his political life …and has been a very vocal supporter of the mining industry, including the possibility of seabed mining. He very much sees New Zealand's own natural resources as a pathway to economic prosperity, creating regional wealth and jobs. On the podcast, we discuss what the mining industry means to NZ, the policies the government have, and are looking to implement to make the industry more attractive and why companies should invest into NZ's mining industry and much more. KEY TAKEAWAYS The New Zealand government, under the leadership of Shane Jones, is committed to revitalising the mining industry, reversing previous bans on oil and gas New Zealand has developed a Critical Minerals List and a mineral strategy aimed at restoring pride in the natural resources sector The introduction of Fast Track legislation aims to streamline the environmental permitting process for mining projects, allowing for quicker allocation of permits A $200 million co-investment fund has been established to encourage both local and international investment in the mining sector, addressing concerns about potential future government changes BEST MOMENTS "I believe a lot of the climate change hysteria is actually going to wreck Western economies unless we restore some balance to it." "We've got a kind of figurative Sahara desert of iron sands resource, largely in the ocean." "Any economy that races ahead, demonises, cancels its fossil fuels industry without an affordable strategy... is dicing with economic calamity." "No one enjoys a perfect history. So what we've got to do is ensure that mining as it goes forward is strongly defended."

La medida de coerción que se conocerá esta tarde a los señores Antonio y Maribel Espaillat es el inicio de un proceso que se sabe será largo y en el que los jueces o juezas tendrán que hilar fino para producir un fallo fuera del populismo jurídico y apegado al derecho.Como cualquiera que tenga un par de pesos en RD, Maribel Espaillat sufrió un mareo cuando fue conducida a la cárcel de Ciudad Nueva advirtiendo una fragilidad nueva porque sus diálogos con empleados y sus actitudes posteriores a la tragedia de Jet Set la configuran como una mujer de carácter que después de la muerte de 236 personas estuvo tratando de garantizar la seguridad de su hermano y de la empresaA Gregory Adames no se le puede tocar ni con el pétalo de una rosa, no sé si lo llamarán testigo estrella como ahora se usa pero es la persona que identifica la indolencia de la familia Espaillat López ante una tragedia que sigue provocando dolor colectivo, que nos sigue anugando, que nos sigue haciendo preguntas sobre la manera en que vivimos o en que vamos a mori.El testigo Manuel Jimenez Mateo que es el número dos de la lista presentada por el MP ofrece más datos sobre el proceso de deterioro progresivo de la infraestructura de Jet Set y el informe pericial lo entiende cualquier lego: ahí no se hizo nada serio durante los últimos diez años que no fuera estético o improvisaciones para salvar la situación.Pero es Gregory Adames quien con pocas palabras evidencia la frialdad con que la tragedia fue tomada por los dueños de JetSet.Quisiera pensar que el hecho de que la señora Espaillat le diera por muerto ante los medios días después de haber hablado con el y de haberle dicho que lo que él sabía podía costarle 20 años a Antonio Espaillat es solo una coincidencia.Hace unas semanas que fue asesinado un testigo de un caso en Mao, el asunto quedó en la crónica policial de algunos periódicos y una no sabe si se investigará. Esa muerte significa que esas cosas pasan. En el caso Jet Set no puede pasar.Las querellas suman ya 108 y habrá abogados por docenas, pero los que pueden decir lo que pasó y como pasó son pocos y a esos hay que cuidarlos.
Nadine Dorries is one of the most recognisable Conservative politicians from the past two decades. Elected as the MP for Mid Bedfordshire in 2005, she notably clashed with David Cameron and George Osborne (who she called ‘two arrogant posh boys') and lost the whip in 2012 when she took part in the reality show I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here. Loyal to Boris Johnson, she served in his government and rose to be Culture Secretary. She stood down in 2023 and went on to write about politics in the bestselling books The Plot and Downfall.On the podcast, Nadine tells the Spectator's executive editor Lara Prendergast about her memories of tinned burgers and Sunday lunches as a child, working long shifts as a nurse in Warrington and what it was like spending a year in Zambia. She also explains the ‘relentless' but ‘collegiate' atmosphere of Parliament and how she once saw a mouse at the Commons' salad bar. Nadine explains what it is like to have recently used the weight-loss jab Mounjaro and why, in her family, she is still the ‘queen of the Sunday roast'.Produced by Patrick Gibbons. Hosted on Acast.

Israel's allies have been rapidly losing patience with Netanyahu's government over the increasingly aimless brutality of the war in Gaza - but the strikes on Iran have drawn a markedly different response, with unanimous agreement that they cannot be allowed to develop nuclear weapons. But when does defense become attack? Piers Morgan speaks to the former Prime Minister of Israel, Naftali Bennett, who many consider to be the frontrunner to replace Netanyahu. Then Piers tries a discussion with George Galloway - but what ensues is a war of words and slew of accusations, before the former MP walks out of the interview. Editor's Note: Professor Marandi was not inside the Iranian State TV building, as his own social media posts make clear. This was posted more than an hour before Mr Galloway's interview: https://x.com/s_m_marandi/status/1934647062173274204/history Piers Morgan Uncensored is proudly independent and supported by:Ridge Wallet: Upgrade your wallet today!

If you have any funny military stories of your own that you would like to share, drop us a line at:stories@cammocomedy.com or Leave a voicemail at (531) 222-6146 Sadly, the voicemail will only record in 2 minute blocksWe are here to make you laugh, but behind this there is the imbedded philosophy of, "No One Left Behind." Sadly, 22 vets per day commit suicide, approximately 67,500 vets are homeless and thousands struggle with everyday life after service. What we hope to accomplish is providing a fun place to gather that will have a similar feel to the conversations that happen at the VFW or American Legion between vets. Since the latest generations of vets are not really going to these places anymore, we are making it happen online. We believe that the sense of community will help some who struggle, while providing stories about the good times that we can all laugh at!An additional part of this show is capturing the oral history of the military over the past few decades, so if you happen to know a veteran who served during WW2, Korean War or Vietnam eras, we would love to hear from them. Obviously, we want to hear stories from all eras, but we have special respect for the older generations.

Prime Minister's Question Time, also referred to as PMQs, takes place every Wednesday the House of Commons sits. It gives MPs the chance to put questions to the Prime Minister or a nominated minister. In most cases, the session starts with a routine 'open question' from an MP about the Prime Minister's engagements. MPs can then ask supplementary questions on any subject, often one of current political significance.

The Spectator's editor Michael Gove and assistant editor Madeline Grant interview Rupert Lowe, MP for Great Yarmouth and notorious Westminster provocateur. Earlier this year, Lowe was suspended from the Reform party amid claims of threats towards the party's then-chairman Zia Yusuf, and a souring relationship with Nigel Farage. Following his political ‘assassination', he now sits as an independent MP and continues to be one of the most energetic parliamentarians in challenging the Westminster orthodoxy.During the discussion – recorded before Zia Yusuf resigned as party chairman on Thursday – Lowe diagnoses the issues that have blighted Reform and its bid to ‘professionalise'; challenges Michael on the then-Tory government's mismanagement of an 80-seat majority and its record on Covid; addresses his interview with Emily Maitlis and her questioning on the grooming gangs scandal; but admits, in spite of it all, that he would still prefer Nigel Farage to be Prime Minister over Keir Starmer.Watch the interview in full on Spectator TV.

Zia Yusuf resigned this evening from his position as chairman of Reform UK, saying: ‘I no longer believe working to get a Reform government elected is a good use of my time.' This comes after he tweeted yesterday that it was ‘dumb' for Sarah Pochin, Reform's newest MP, to urge the Prime Minister to ban the burka during PMQs.Did he jump before he was pushed? And can Reform UK really claim to have ‘professionalised' when this is the second high profile departure this year? Oscar Edmondson speaks to James Heale. Hosted on Acast.

This week, we're stepping off the garden path and into the wild. James Armitage, editor of The Plant Review, joins Gareth Richards to reflect on how a little wilderness can bring balance, biodiversity, and unexpected beauty, to even the most cultivated spaces. We begin with a tribute to the intrepid botanist John Watson, whose plant-hunting adventures in South America unearthed a treasure trove of wild flora. Plantsman Robert Rolfe shares stories of Watson's passion and the remarkable plants he helped bring into cultivation. Then, it's over to the Garry oak meadows of Vancouver Island, where nurserywoman Amy Sanderson and writer Eric Hsu are rethinking everything we thought we knew about camassias – revealing their surprising resilience in dry climates. Finally, we ascend to the Himalayas with botanist Richard Moore to meet the hardy Roscoea – a plant both wild and wonderful, whose taxonomic tale is as twisty as its mountain roots. All this, plus a call to action: find out how you can help protect community growing spaces by supporting the RHS-backed Space to Grow amendment in Parliament.

In this episode of Money Tales, our guest is Caroline Lewis. Caroline was checking all the boxes for her career: climbing the corporate ladder, leading big teams at Nike, and chasing the next promotion. Then, suddenly, she was off the ladder entirely. Caroline shares the moment her fast-moving, say-it-like-it-is style clashed with corporate politics, and how that unexpected exit became the launchpad for a more purpose-driven, powerful relationship with money. Caroline is the MP and founder of Rogue Women. She is also a Partner at Rogue Ventures and Kauffman Fellow. Before entering venture capital, she was Senior Director of Global Strategy and Operations at Nike where she managed a portfolio of strategic programs focused on consumer experience, digitization, and big data. Her love for start-ups comes from her early career experience as a founder of an e-commerce business and as a leader at a consumer health product company. Caroline holds an MBA from Portland State University and a B.S. in Behavioral Psychology from Davidson College where she played D1 Field Hockey.
