Dr. David Bull, the new chairman of Reform UK, is an unlikely politician. He made his name as a TV doctor and presenter, even hosting a live ghost hunt. But he played a key role in the transition of the Brexit Party to Reform and even says the name of the party was cooked up in his kitchen. He takes on the role from Zia Yusuf – who quit in dramatic fashion earlier this year – and after a period of splits and infighting.Tim visited Dr Bull at his home in Suffolk, where they spoke about his previous lives as a Tory candidate and as a Brexit MEP; his paranormal experiences; and his relationships with Rupert Lowe and Nigel Farage.

Suzi speaks to Tariq Ali about Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana's new party — provisionally called Your Party — which has surpassed Labour's membership with over 650,000 sign-ups. Your Party calls for public ownership, redistribution, and a politics rooted in communities, unions and social movements. Starmer's Labour government has nothing for the population, but billions for war and complicity in genocide. Supporters see a historic opening for the Left; critics warn it could split the vote and hand power to Nigel Farage's far-right Reform UK, which has overtaken the weakened Tories. We get Tariq Ali's assessment of Your Party's politics, prospects, and perils. Then Flor Melendrez of CLEAN Carwash, the country's first car wash worker center, talks to Suzi about the escalating ICE raids on carwasheros across Southern California. ICE uses racial profiling to conduct suspicion-less stops, warrantless home raids, and illegal workplace actions. A new class action lawsuit demands an immediate halt to these violations of the 4th and 5th Amendments of the Constitution. Flor tells us how ICE raids are hitting carwasheros in their workplaces, and how these workers are organizing to defend their jobs and families. Jacobin Radio with Suzi Weissman features conversations with leading thinkers and activists, with a focus on labor, the economy, and protest movements.

BBCBias #FreeSpeech #UKPolitics #MediaCensorship #JonGaunt #ChrisMiddleton #IndependentJournalism Broadcaster Jon Gaunt interviews Chris Middleton, the man behind the viral anti-Keir Starmer song “Freezing This Christmas” – a parody of Mud's “Lonely This Christmas”.  The track became a political hit, helped drive a campaign to reverse winter fuel cuts… and got Chris sacked from BBC Newcastle. In this explosive interview, Chris reveals: - Why he made the song and the reaction it sparked How BBC bosses pushed political bias and silenced dissent - Insider stories from BBC Newcastle and BBC London - Why he believes the BBC has no place in modern broadcasting - The truth about coverage on migrant hotels, climate change, and right-wing demonstrations  Jon shares his own BBC London experience, where he says left-wing bias soared after 9/11 and 7/7. Together, they discuss freedom of speech, the chilling impact of the UK's new Online Safety Act, and how the BBC, Ofcom, and the political establishment stifle independent journalism.  

With Keir Starmer proving as unpopular and unpalatable to the left as he is to the right, Jeremy Corbyn's new - and as yet untitled - political party joins Reform UK in presenting a very real threat to Labour's chances of re-election in 2029.In this episode of The Daily T, Tim Stanley and Gordon Rayner talk to Ash Sarkar - journalist, Corbyn-supporter and co-founder of left-wing media organisation Novara Media - about how that new party could form a potentially fatal electoral pact for Starmer by teaming up with the Greens in 2029.As well as her dissatisfaction at Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves, she also talks about how Reform have outflanked Labour on the left with talk of nationalising utility providers like Thames Water, and why she “previously underestimated Nigel Farage” but is now “taking him a lot more seriously”.We want to hear from you!

Seventies #1970s #JonGaunt #UKPolitics #Community #Discipline #Coventry #Scouts #Cubs Were we happier in the Seventies — the 1970s — and have we lost our way? I grew up in Coventry with discipline, community, and respect. Today we've got more stuff than ever… but are we really better off? This is me in the Seventies — eleven years old, outside my local church with my cub and scout group. My dad was a copper, my mum was a dinner lady. We didn't have much, but we had order, rules, and a real sense of belonging. That church is gone now, demolished. My mum died just months after this photo was taken. And looking at it today, I can't help but ask — were we happier back then? We've traded community for convenience, respect for self-interest. In this video, I'm talking straight about what's changed, what we've lost, and why we're paying the price. This isn't nostalgia for nostalgia's sake — it's a wake-up call. #Seventies #1970s #JonGaunt #WereWeHappier #Community #Discipline #ChildhoodMemories #Coventry #Scouts #Cubs #BritishLife #SocialChange #Happiness #RoseTintedGlasses #UKHistory #OldPhotos #Society Seventies, 1970s, Jon Gaunt, Were We Happier, Community, Discipline, Childhood Memories, Coventry, Scouts, Cubs, British Life, Social Change, Happiness, Rose Tinted Glasses, UK History, Old Photos, Society This video is a politics blog and social commentary by award winning talk radio star, Jon Gaunt

Fresh figures show a staggering 40% of benefit claims now come from non — UK nationals yet the Government still treats them like VIPs while ordinary Brits are left struggling. Since Starmer came to power, over 50,000 illegals have entered the country, yet he somehow found the time to interrupt his holiday to meddle in Donald Trump's meeting… but can't be bothered to face the border crisis at home. Priorities, anyone? Meanwhile, the “justice” system is a bad joke. A man who exposed himself on the Tube walked free after playing the “mental health” card — and now police are hunting down the men who actually stopped him. This is soft justice gone mad. Hotels for illegals, excuses for offenders, benefits for those who've just arrived — while the rest of us are told to put up and shut up. Watch now as I break down the chaos, call out the hypocrisy, and ask: Do the feral, feckless, foreigners & freeloaders get priority over us? #JonGaunt #UKNews #ImmigrationCrisis #BorderCrisis #Starmer #IllegalImmigration #UKPolitics #SoftJustice #BenefitsScandal #LiveShow #BritishPolitics Jon Gaunt live, Jon Gaunt show, Do the feral feckless foreigners & freeloaders get priority over us, UK border crisis 2025, UK immigration crisis, illegal immigrants UK, benefits for immigrants UK, Starmer border crisis, Starmer immigration policy, illegal immigration Britain, UK hotels for migrants, benefits scandal UK, 40 percent benefits immigrants, Starmer Trump meeting, Starmer holidays, illegal immigrants in hotels, UK asylum seeker scandal, migrant benefits UK, mental health justice system UK, soft justice UK, Tube incident mental health, police hunt Tube heroes, two tier justice UK, migrants priority over citizens, Britain border security crisis This video is a politics blog and social commentary by award winning talk radio star, Jon Gaunt

MigrationWatch #IllegalMigration #UKBorders #AlpMehmet #JonGaunt #ImmigrationCrisis Britain is facing an immigration crisis – and it's about to get worse, warns Alp Mehmet, Chairman of Migration Watch UK. In this explosive interview with Jon Gaunt, Alp – himself an immigrant – says diversity is our weakness, not our strength, and that mass immigration is turning the UK into an Island of Strangers. From Tony Blair's open-border legacy to Keir Starmer's refusal to leave the ECHR, Alp argues that our political leaders have no real plan to secure Britain's borders. He dismisses the Macron “one in, one out” deal as pointless and reveals:

Trump #NationalGuard #Starmer #UKPolitics #BorderCrisis #ElectionNow #SadiqKhan #JonGaunt While Donald Trump takes decisive action in Washington DC, deploying the National Guard to restore order, the UK drifts deeper into chaos under Sir Keir Starmer's watch. From the southern border to the streets of DC, Trump proves where there's a will, there's a way. Meanwhile, in Britain, the political establishment sits on its hands: Illegal crossings surge as the Channel remains unguarded. Crime spirals as shoplifters walk free and police focus on tweets, not streets. London is plagued with violent crime, yet we get painted signs on pavements warning of phone snatchers instead of officers catching them. Like Washington, our capital needs cleaning up – and then we must move through the rest of the UK. Communities protest outside migrant hotels as tensions mount. 650,000 people have signed a petition demanding an election. Mums are protesting. Vigilante groups are forming. The UK needs action now – troops at Dover, the Navy in the Channel, and real policing on our streets.

As the government makes another announcement about deporting foreign criminals, Hugo Rifkind asks if they're pursuing tougher policies than under Theresa May's 'hostile environment'. And with both the Conservatives and Reform UK campaigning hard on migration, has the 'Overton window' in British politics moved?With Times columnists Seb Payne and Charlotte Ivers. Hosted on Acast.

Does – or did – Nigel Farage have a woman problem? ‘Around me there's always been a perception of a laddish culture,' he tells political editor Tim Shipman, for the cover piece of the Spectator this week. In last year's election, 58 per cent of Reform voters were men. But, Shipman argues, ‘that has begun to change'. According to More in Common, Reform has gained 14% among women, while Labour has lost 12%. ‘Women are ‘more likely than men… to worry that the country is broken.'Many of Reform's most recent victories have been by women: Andrea Jenkyns in the mayoral elections, Sarah Pochin to Parliament; plus, their most recent high profile defections include a former Tory Welsh Assembly member and a former Labour London councillor. What makes Reform's success with women all the more remarkable is that it appears organic; ‘we haven't forced this' says Farage. So why are women turning to Reform UK? Tim Shipman and Sarah Pochin MP join William Moore and Lara Prendergast, the Spectator's features and executive editors respectively, to discuss further, with an introduction from Oscar Edmondson.

KeirStarmer #JonGaunt #UKPolitics #UKElection #Migranthotels #ChannelBoats #UKRiots #FarRight #FarLeftViolence #PoliticalCommentary WHERE THE HELL IS STARMER?  Plenty of time to lecture Israel. Wants to stick his nose into Trump's talks with Putin. But when it comes to Britain's REAL problems? NOTHING. Migrant hotel demos exploding. Far-left thugs running wild. Boats still pouring in across the Channel. Or is this all part of his game?  Is Starmer HIDING in his bunker, waiting for the streets to explode so he can jump out and brand us ALL “far-right” thugs?  This isn't leadership — it's cowardice.  I'm Jon Gaunt — and I'm calling it exactly as it is.

Espressos cost €1.20, pizzas are no more than €10, and rents in even the swankiest areas are ‘laughably' cheap compared to Britain. Plus, Owen sees none of the ‘media catastrophisation' over issues like immigration, social cohesion and militant Islam that appears to grip the UK.

BBC TV Licence Is a Poll Tax – Time to Scrap It? BBC #TVlicence #Axethetax #BBCbias #JonGaunt#UKPolitics Is the BBC TV licence still worth paying in 2025 — or is it an outdated poll tax on British households?  We debate whether the BBC's funding model should be scrapped in the digital age. I worked inside the BBC for years, winning three Sony Awards in one night as a top talk radio presenter. But I'm now ashamed of what it has become — from political bias and overpaid talent to a shrinking audience and competition from streaming giants like Netflix, YouTube, and Spotify.  We discuss: BBC bias and impartiality — including their own admissions in recent controversies Whether BBC Radio 1, Radio 2, Radio 4, and Radio 5 Live could thrive in the private sector.  The streaming revolution — Netflix, YouTube, Spotify vs the BBC  The Glastonbury coverage controversy.  The reality of the TV licence “poll tax” — and why refusal to pay can lead to prison  #BBC #TVlicence #ScrapBBC #BBCbias #BBCcontroversy #TVlicencedebate #BBCimpartiality #BBCpolltax #UKbroadcasting #BBCfunding #BBCsalaries #BBCwaste #EndTVlicence #NoTVlicence #BBCcompetition #ClassicFM #TalkSport #GBNews #NetflixvsBBC #YouTubevsBBC #StreamingvsBBC #AbolishTVlicence  BBC TV licence, scrap BBC licence, BBC bias, BBC controversy, TV licence debate, BBC impartiality, BBC poll tax, UK broadcasting, BBC funding, BBC salaries, BBC waste, end TV licence, no TV licence, BBC competition, Classic FM, TalkSport, GB News, Netflix vs BBC, YouTube vs BBC, streaming vs BBC, abolish TV licence  This video is a politics blog and social commentary by award winning talk radio star, Jon Gaunt  

Nigel Farage has called on the police to release the immigration status of the suspects charged with crimes following the arrest of two men in connection with an alleged rape in Warwickshire. The Reform UK leader said he 'absolutely' thinks such details should be released when asked about the matter at a news conference. UK correspondent Enda Brady explains further.

Parliament is in recess for the next four weeks, a time when Westminster usually goes quiet, but this year there's one man who's determined to keep working. Nigel Farage.Today the Reform UK delivered his third weekly conference as part of his campaign on “Lawless Britain”, broadening out (slightly) from the party's usual single-issue politics. Of course, much of the emphasis is still heavily on migration.But do these conferences tell us about the current contradictions in British politics and have Reform peaked too soon?Read: One year on, tensions still circle Britain's asylum-seeker hotels Hosted on Acast.

I'm Jon Gaunt, and tonight I'm exposing the truth about Two-Tier Britain.  We'll ask the questions the establishment won't answer: - Does the Government really care about ordinary people? - Why are we told to feel ashamed of our flag, our culture, and our history? - Will another £800 million stop the boats, smash the gangs, or fix illegal migration? - Do freeloaders and special interest groups get treated better than the working taxpayer? - Why does the BBC ignore voices like yours? - And if we are the many and they are the few — how are they still in charge? This isn't the BBC. This isn't mainstream spin. This is YOUR show. Your voice. Your fight.

The leader of the Reform UK Party has called for police to release more information about those charged with crimes. Nigel Farage believes details such as immigration status should be made public, saying it's not in contempt of court for the British public to know the identity of those who have allegedly committed serious crimes.

Two Afghan asylum seekers have been arrested and charged.  Warwickshire Police reportedly told councillors and officials not to reveal the suspects' ethnicity for fear of riots.  In this show, Jon Gaunt exposes the facts of the case, the secrecy, and the wider failures in policing and immigration policy.  The reality: • Victims must come first — no two tier policing or justice • If revealing ethnicity sparks unrest, police it properly — don't hide facts • Moving asylum seekers from hotels to Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs) is a dangerous con trick  • All new arrivals should be held in secure camps until asylum cases are decided • Declare a state of emergency until the backlog is cleared  Join Jon Gaunt  as he demands action, truth, and urgent reform.  #JonGaunt #AfghanAsylumSeekers #Nuneaton #RapeCase #PoliceSecrecy #VictimsFirst #StateOfEmergency #SecureCamps #ScrapHMOs #UKImmigration #WarwickshirePolice #TwoTierPolicing  Jon Gaunt, Afghan asylum seekers, Nuneaton rape, state of emergency, police secrecy, victims first, secure camps, scrap HMOs, UK immigration, Warwickshire Police, two-tier policing, LIVE, Migrant hotels  This video is a politics blog and social commentary by award winning talk radio star, Jon Gaunt

Ever since Labour won a landslide victory at the general election, Nigel Farage's Reform UK party and Kemi Badenoch's Conservatives have been fighting for the soul of the political right in Britain. Now a new right-wing think tank is putting together a suite of potential policies for a future Reform government. Dr James Orr, an associate professor of the philosophy of religion at Cambridge University and friend of US Vice President JD Vance, chairs the advisory board of that new think tank - the Centre for a Better Britain (CBB). Amol asks him whether the CBB is modelled on American organisations like the Heritage Foundation, which wrote a policy wish list called ‘Project 2025' that set out a vision for how Donald Trump might govern during his second term in the White House. They also discuss who is funding the CBB, the politics of national preference, and how James was radicalised by Brexit and the culture wars.

Labour Meltdown: Trump Humiliates Starmer – Farage Hit with Sick Smear  #KeirStarmer #NigelFarage #DonaldTrump #JonGaunt #UKPolitics  Yesterday's political drama was explosive — and Sir Keir Starmer is at the centre of it. Donald Trump publicly humiliated the Labour leader, leaving him the laughing stock of Britain and beyond. But instead of fixing the mess, Starmer and Labour have launched a vile smear campaign against Nigel Farage.  First, they tried the tired “racist” label. Now, they've escalated to a disgusting claim linking Farage to Jimmy Savile. This desperate attack, pushed by Peter Kyle and backed by Number 10, is a clear attempt to distract from Starmer's disastrous Trump encounter. Meanwhile, instead of tackling the issues Brits care about most — grooming gangs, the migrant crisis, and riots — Starmer has called an emergency cabinet meeting to discuss Gaza and has now announced that the UK will recognise a Palestinian state in September!  Jon Gaunt breaks down the political chaos, the truth behind Labour's smear tactics, and why Starmer's leadership is in serious trouble.

Jon Gaunt says that in just 20 minutes, Donald Trump destroyed Keir Starmer and handed the keys of Number 10 to Nigel Farage and Reform UK. Trump showed how securing the border and stopping illegal immigration won him the White House — and exposed Starmer's total weakness on the issue. Starmer squirmed, lied, and stumbled when challenged on illegal immigration, farmers' anger, crime in London under Sadiq Khan, and more. It was excruciating and hilarious in equal measure. Just a day after the Lionesses made us proud to be English again, our Prime Minister was humiliated in front of the world's press. Was this the longest political suicide note in British history? Can Starmer survive it?  This video is a politics blog and social commentary by award winning talk radio star, Jon Gaunt

Southport RIOTS: One Year On — Will the UK EXPLODE Again THIS SUMMER?  #SouthportRiots #UKRiots #KeirStarmer #ImmigrationCrisis #JonGaunt #UKpolitics  Mass protests. Online rage. Riots breaking out AGAIN. One year after the horrific knife attack in Southport triggered nationwide violence, Britain is on the edge — and TONIGHT could be the tipping point.  

Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana have finally launched their new party, but it's off to a bumpy start. They unveiled 'Your Party', but had to quickly clarify that was not in fact the new party's name, and that will be decided on by a member's vote. He also had to play down claims of a split already. However, if the so-called Gaza independents join forced with Sultana and Corbyn, the organisation that's not called Your Party could have enough MPs to outnumber Reform UK. What does it mean for the left – and can they get their act together?Elsewhere, Tim discusses the slightly more organised Reform UK, the subject he wrote about in this week's magazine – and how it's no longer a case of can they win, but can anything stop them. Megan McElroy discusses with Tim Shipman and James Heale. Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

KevinFoster #JonGaunt #BorisJohnson #RishiSunak #KeirStarmer #UKPolitics Kevin Foster served as a Conservative MP for 9 YEARS under Boris Johnson, Theresa May, Liz Truss AND Rishi Sunak — and now he's spilling EVERYTHING in this explosive interview with Jon Gaunt.

The strange death of Tory England has been predicted before. But never has the ‘natural party of government' faced a greater challenge to survive. The Conservatives are facing attacks on all fronts from Labour, the Liberal Democrats and Reform UK. Kemi Badenoch's six-month anniversary as leader was marked by the loss of nearly 700 councillors, with a stern test awaiting next year in Scotland and in Wales. She promises change with her long-awaited policy commissions, ahead of a make-or-break party conference in October, but can she turn it around? Is there a road back to power for the 121 surviving Tory MPs? And what exactly is Robert Jenrick and the rest of the shadow cabinet up to?Join editor Michael Gove, new political editor Tim Shipman, assistant editor Isabel Hardman and the pollster Luke Tryl as they discuss where the Tories go from here.This event is in partnership with Charles Stanley Wealth Managers.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.
