Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have condemned photographers they say spent hours watching Archie and Lilibet's school, with police now investigating the incident. According to ITV News and Sky News, two men carrying backpacks were spotted near the school before leaving in a rented van. The Sussexes' spokesperson called the alleged behavior “extraordinarily reckless,” while details of the incident have reportedly been passed to the committee reviewing the family's request for police protection.The incident brings Harry's long-running security battle back into focus just weeks after Archie and Lilibet changed schools. Meanwhile, Harry's potential connection with Jeff Bezos and Amazon is attracting criticism, with The Independent questioning whether an alliance with one of the world's wealthiest businessmen sits comfortably alongside Harry's public advocacy on issues including climate change and burnout.Harry's sustainable travel initiative Travalyst has also reported a small financial loss for 2025, which the organization describes as planned investment, while Meghan's latest As Ever promotional video has received the full parody treatment online.And William and Catherine joined Sir Kevin Sinfield as he completed another stage of his seven-ultramarathons-in-seven-days challenge supporting motor neurone disease charities. Catherine also took time with a nervous young girl during a visit to Headingley Stadium before later turning up on residents' doorsteps to help passengers aboard a community minibus.Questions this episode answers: What happened outside Archie and Lilibet's school? Why are police investigating photographers near the Sussex children? What did Harry and Meghan say about the incident? Could the incident affect Prince Harry's security review?

FOLLOW UP: BIG PUSH TO PROTECT UK AUTOMOTIVE RELEVANCEThe campaign to push both the UK Government and EU into a favourable deal connected to the ‘Made in Europe' regulation is gaining momentum from within the industry. The SMMT has produced a report to claims the UK industry contributes €24 billion in ‘economic activity' across the continent. This is to try and show that be excluding the UK would actually hurt the EU. Click this article link from Motor Trader, to read more.The EU, for its part, has some demands of the UK, if they are to be considered to be covered. First and foremost is to impose extra tariffs on Chinese imports. This comes off the back of the suggestion it should join the EU's customs union, as that means aligning with the economic policies of the bloc. Click this EV Powered article link for more.Meanwhile, the ACEA (European equivalent to the SMMT), has called on a delay for the stricter rules of origin for the batteries of electric vehicles, between the UK and the EU. By pushing it back until 2029 that will save billions in extra costs.

Reports state options being considered include asking employees to work longer without extra pay, changing holiday and Christmas bonuses as well as eliminating special payments. These options have been gift-wrapped in the not-at-all threatening statement that two German plants are at risk otherwise. If you want to read more, click this Reuters article link here.CONSUMERS AND FLEETS ENCOURAGED TO CLAIM FROM SHIIPING CARTELIn 2016 the EU found that several vehicle carriers had created a cartel to keep prices favourable to them at the cost to the buyers of those vehicles. In the UK the Competition Appeal Tribunal (CAT) has announced the compensation due to those who bought or leased a new vehicle between 18 October 2006 and 6 September 2015. For the first effected vehicle it is expected that the person will receive £25, for multiple vehicle claims the second to sixth should get £5 per vehicle and those over six are presumed to be getting £2.50 per vehicle. Which seems pittance and won't affect the companies who have been found guilty of breaking the law. Again.

The one at Munich will remain and is their last in Germany. Lots of corporate language was used, but essentially they're in trouble and their European adventure seems almost over. Click this electrive article to read more.Meanwhile, Geely has announced that it will be integrating with the technology of Nio to enable battery swapping in it's vehicles in the future and working closely with them to integrate their networks. The deal is quite complicated with each company owning shares in each other's subsidiaries.

The headline from the research is two-thirds of UK drivers want a lower speed limit on country roads. The wonderfully deadpan way this was written exposes the nature and silliness of these ‘surveys', which are generated for publicity. In reality it was demonstrating so many feel incompetent behind the wheel as well as then bringing in irrelevant stats about the number who exceed the national speed limit, like that would change with a reduction.

AVA GLASS Learn more about Ava Glass at https://www.avaglass.uk Ava Glass is the UK's biggest selling female spy writer with over 2million copies sold, who writes about the world of female spies from firsthand experience and has been dubbed the “female heir to James Bond” by James Patterson and “the new Queen of spy fiction” by The Guardian. Having worked in British intelligence for just shy of a decade, Ava Glass uses her novels to reveal the hidden world of female espionage in compelling and realistic spy writing that shatters the James Bond stereotype. Ava Glass's fourth novel The Hiding Season is published by Penguin Cornerstone in paperback on 13th August and explores the damage that spies do to those who accidentally cross their path, something Ava has experienced herself. In a completely fresh direction for Ava Glass, The Hiding Season is set in America's wild west state of Montana following an ordinary American woman running for her life after she witnesses the murder of one of America's most powerful senators – the perfect read for fans of hit shows The Night Manger and Yellowstone. Her many years working with MI6, MI5 and the FIB, mean that Ava Glass (not her real name) has signed the official secrets act, has been befriended, vetted and duped by spies, seen everything from the real Bond Girls – Britain's brigade of female spies; participated in terrorist simulations on British soil - where the British Government blow up more buildings than a Mission Impossible film so spies can practice for the real thing; and has some brilliant stories to share from the secret spy nod, secret spy doors, to why not to tussle with a spy in public. Prior to working with MI5 and MI6, Glass had a previous career as a crime reporter in the USA covering murders & kidnappings alongside the FBI and has written for the New York Times and Reuters. Ava also frequently appears on BBC Radio 4 and Sky News covering the latest spy stories. Current Release THE HIDING SEASON PENGUIN | 13 AUGUST 2026 Trust no one. Move fast. From the UK Queen of spy fiction, comes a brilliant new spy novel set in the heart of America. Exploring the damage that spies can do to those who become entangled with them, The Hiding Season follows an ordinary woman running for her life after she witnesses the murder of one of America's most powerful senators. Escaping from a broken marriage, Maya Landry moves to Bozeman, Montana, the gateway to the Rocky Mountains. Working at an exclusive private ski-resort in the off season, Maya's new life of quiet reflection in the mountains is going exactly as she'd hoped . . . until she stumbles across a dead body. With no phone signal, she races down the mountain to get help. But when she returns with the police, the body is gone and no-one believes her. Later that night Maya is told by FBI agent Riley Maguire that if she doesn't leave the state tonight, she'll be dead by morning. Forced to change her identity, leave everything behind and move across the country, Maya trusts Riley to keep her safe. But, when her hiding place is compromised, should she trust him? And are the feelings she's having towards him too good to be true? From a ski lodge in the Rocky Mountains to the Dirty Sixth in Austin, and from an anonymous safehouse in Texas to the headquarters of the FBI in Chicago, this is a page-turning, pulse-pounding thriller that explores the collateral damage of an FBI operation gone wrong.

In a star studded edition of EMQs, Sky News political editor, and rival podcaster, Beth Rigby asks Ed Balls and George Osborne for their biggest party conference cock-ups over the years. George takes us behind the scenes and back to 2007 to a moment that could have ended his and David Cameron's careers, while Ed recounts the moment that changed British political history.Labour's party Chair, Bridget Phillipson, asks a more upbeat conference themed question: Which are Ed and George's favourite speeches? This takes them from Thatcher's triumphant defence of her policy in 1980, to Tony Blair in the wake of 9/11. Elsewhere they discuss measures to combat inflation and the far-right in France working with Reform. Plus ex-MP Robert Buckland asks if a decisive win for Labour, in the Holborn and St. Pancras by-election, could prompt Andy Burnham to call an early election. We love hearing from you, so please don't forget to send all your EMQs to questions@politicalcurrency.co.uk and make sure to include a voice note of your question or send a question to our social media handles:

Candidates need to be prepared for established roles and industries to evolve rather than assuming traditional career paths will remain unchanged. Growth often follows change. Areas including technology, energy, health, mobility, cybersecurity, and emerging businesses may create new opportunities as organizations respond to new challenges. Human skills remain critical. Curiosity, communication, adaptability, problem-solving, and the ability to connect with people can help candidates stand out in an increasingly AI-enabled hiring environment. Staying competitive requires being proactive. Networking, learning about industries firsthand, exploring unfamiliar companies, and building relationships can be as important as submitting applications. Business school is more than the classroom. Internships, company visits, experiential projects, exchanges, career services, and peer networks can help students develop the skills and exposure they need to navigate what comes next.

The Labour Party conference starts in Liverpool this weekend. It's a chance for Andy Burnham to lay out his vision for the country. Expect worldview, class, solidarity and hope. How much criticism is likely to come from allies of Keir Starmer? Darren Jones, Starmer's former right-hand-man, has been giving interviews. Will others do the same?Could Burnham call a snap election?An MRP mega poll for The Times and Sky News suggested that if an election were held now Labour would win 241 seats, the Conservatives would have 130 and Reform UK would be in third on 123 seats. The split on the right makes it tempting for Labour to call a snap election.

Stijn Schmitz welcomes back Colonel Douglas Macgregor to the show. Mr. Macgregor is a retired U.S. Army Colonel & Decorated Combat Veteran. Macgregor opens with a stark assessment that the global energy structure is being destroyed, warning that the situation will worsen significantly. He dismisses the notion of an imminent diplomatic deal with Iran, stating that trust has evaporated and Iran now holds the strategic initiative, effectively controlling oil traffic in the Strait of Hormuz. He estimates that only a fraction of normal oil shipments are moving, with tankers forced to pay tolls to Iran, while simultaneous U.S. efforts to punish compliance have made insurance impossible. The disruption extends to the Red Sea, where attacks on infrastructure have halted Saudi oil shipments to Europe, potentially removing 35% of the world's oil from the market. This energy shock is only beginning to be felt in Europe and has prompted discussions in the U.S. about banning diesel exports, a move Macgregor sees as indicative of the crisis's severity. The conversation expands to the broader geopolitical and financial implications. Macgregor argues that the petrodollar system is effectively dead, with the U.S. waging war to restore dominance, particularly against Iranian resistance. He criticizes the American tendency to project its own mindset onto nations like China and Russia, leading to strategic miscalculations. He warns that President Trump's rhetoric suggests a dangerous escalation, potentially including nuclear options, which would finish off the global energy structure. Macgregor sees the markets as grossly underestimating the potential for complete disaster, making gold an essential investment. He notes that central banks continue to stockpile gold and that the BRICS nations are actively building parallel financial structures to circumvent the dollar, a trend forced by U.S. sanctions. He concludes that the West, particularly the U.S., faces a period of extreme internal turmoil, driven by an energy crisis, political corruption, and a public insulated from the consequences of endless wars. Guest Links: Website: https://douglasmacgregor.com X: https://x.com/DougAMacgregor Substack: https://substack.com/@coloneldoug YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@macgregorwarriordiplomacy Articles: https://breakingdefense.com/author/doug-macgregor/ Douglas Macgregor is a decorated combat veteran, an author of five books, a PhD, and a defense and foreign policy consultant. Macgregor was commissioned in the Regular Army in 1976 after 1 year at VMI and 4 years at West Point. In 2004, Macgregor retired with the rank of Colonel. In 2020, the President appointed Macgregor to serve as Senior Advisor to the Secretary of Defense, a post he held until President Trump left office. He holds an MA in comparative politics and a PhD in international relations from the University of Virginia. Macgregor is widely known inside the U.S., Europe, Israel, Russia, China and Korea for both his leadership in the Battle of 73 Easting, the U.S. Army's largest tank battle since World War II, and for his ground breaking books on military transformation: Breaking the Phalanx (Praeger, 1997) and Transformation under Fire (Praeger, 2003). Macgregor's recommendations for change in Force Design and “integrated all arms-all effects” operations have profoundly influenced force development in Israel, Russia and China. In 2010, Macgregor traveled to Seoul, Korea to advise the ROK Ministry of Defense on force design. In 2019, Transformation under Fire was selected by Lt. Gen. Aviv Kohavi, Chief of the Israeli Defense Force (IDF), as the intellectual basis for IDF transformation. His fifth book, Margin of Victory: Five Battles that Changed the Face of Modern War from Naval Institute Press is available in Chinese, as well as, English and will soon appear in Hebrew. In 28 years of service Macgregor taught in the Department of Social Sciences at West Point, commanded the 1st Squadron, 4th Cavalry, and served as the Director of the Joint Operations Center at SHAPE during the 1999 Kosovo Air Campaign for which he was awarded the Defense Superior Service medal. In January 2002, at Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld's insistence the USCENTCOM Commander listened to Colonel Macgregor's concept for the offensive to seize Baghdad. The plan was largely adopted, but assumed no occupation of Iraq by U.S. Forces. Macgregor has also testified as an expert witness before the Senate and House Armed Services Committees and appeared as a defense analyst on Fox News, CNN, BBC, Sky News and public radio. He is fluent in German.
Given the militaristic ambitions of Russia, China and America, how close are we to a catastrophic trade shock? Even without such a shock, do we face years of higher inflation because of the new frictions and costs in global supply chains? And why is the British government the last government to end the tax break exploited by SHEIN and Temu?

What a difference a year makesThe Labour Party conference awaits. Has Andy Burnham's folksy charm and optimism taken the party as far as it can, or can he consolidate power and popularity?Six-party politics A YouGov poll for The Times and Sky News puts Reform UK and the Conservative Party on level pegging for the first time in 18 months. Thursday's mega poll, the first MRP from YouGov in a year, will be a fascinating snapshot of the shifting electoral tectonic plates. Labour MPs are pinning their hopes on a split on the right, but will Burnham's government be able to build enough support from potential Green and Liberal Democrat voters?What will Andy Burnham's government do about welfare? Three reports into work and benefits are imminent: Charlie Mayfield's recommendations about how to keep people in work, Alan Milburn's report into Neets (young people not in education, employment or training) and a government review of mental health conditions. All of them put the welfare system into the spotlight. The timing creates a political problem for the government because next month's budget will not address the welfare bill. Raising taxes without fixing welfare is difficult for a prime minister who has talked about the power of politics to change things. Meanwhile his chancellor, John Healey, is buffeted by rising borrowing costs, which hit £18.3 billion in August, up nearly a fifth on August last year.Brexit re-litigated?On the plane to New York, Andy Burnham refused to rule out rejoining the European Union. A year ago he said he hoped the UK would rejoin the EU in his lifetime. Could he really be tempted to try to boost economic growth by aligning more closely with the EU or putting rejoining the EU in the next manifesto?Steven Swinford, political editor, The TimesPatrick Maguire, chief political commentator, The TimesProducer: Harry KitsonExecutive producer: Molly GuinnessPicture: Getty ImagesThis podcast was brought to you thanks to subscribers of The Times and The Sunday Times.

DANNY DYER FOR PM! HE SPEAKS FOR BRITAIN — BURNHAM DOESN'T! #DannyDyer #AndyBurnham #DonaldTrump #UKPolitics #JonGaunt #JonGauntTV #LiveDebate Danny Dyer has just said what millions of ordinary Brits are thinking—and he certainly didn't mince his words! Asked what message he had for Prime Minister Andy Burnham, Danny replied: "I don't know who the prime minister is, mate. Do you? Yeah, but who is he? I don't understand. Did anyone vote for him? Because I didn't vote for him. So I think we've had successive prime ministers that are c***s. End of. Put that on the f***ing BBC." Brutal. Direct. Unfiltered. And isn't that exactly what Britain is crying out for? You may not like Danny's language—but at least you know exactly what he thinks. No script. No spin. No carefully rehearsed answer designed to avoid saying anything meaningful. Danny was attending a protest demanding that Britain's water industry be brought back into public ownership. He accused the elite of taking the p**s while our bills rise and sewage continues to be pumped into our seas. He sounds more in tune with the average Brit than the Westminster robots who claim to represent us. He speaks plainly, means what he says and doesn't need an army of advisers to tell him what ordinary people are thinking. Now Andy Burnham is heading to New York to meet Donald Trump face-to-face and supposedly fight for Britain's interests. But who would you rather have standing up for us? A polished professional politician who has never received a personal mandate from the British people—or Danny Dyer telling Trump precisely what Britain wants and where we stand? Of course, I'm having a laugh when I say Danny should be Prime Minister—but only just! Because Britain desperately needs leaders with backbone. Leaders prepared to speak plainly, make tough decisions and stop treating the British public like idiots. We've had enough slogans. We've had enough excuses. We've had enough Westminster waffle. WE NEED DIRECT TALK AND TOUGH ACTION! Does Danny Dyer speak for you? Is he more in touch with ordinary Brits than Andy Burnham and the entire Westminster establishment? DANNY DYER FOR PRIME MINISTER? Join me, Jon Gaunt, LIVE AT 6PM and have your say.

ANDY: STOP SHARING THE PROBLEM — LOCK THEM UP OR CHUCK THEM OUT! #AndyBurnham #Piddington #AsylumCrisis #IllegalImmigration #JonGaunt #JonGauntTV #DeterDetainDeport Piddington has roared—but is Andy Burnham listening? By 285 votes to just 26, residents delivered a devastating rejection of plans to dump a massive asylum centre on their doorstep. Yet Burnham's answer is that communities across Britain must "share" the problem. No, Andy. We don't want the problem shared. We want it stopped! Moving undocumented men from hotels into towns, villages and military camps across Britain does not solve the crisis. It merely spreads the risk, spreads the fear and spreads the anger. It is not racist to demand secure borders. It is not unreasonable to demand identification. And it is not "far right" to say that entering Britain illegally without documents or a verified identity must have serious consequences. Simply uttering the words "I am seeking asylum" cannot be treated as a magic password granting entry into Britain, years of taxpayer-funded accommodation and endless appeals. The solution is simple: DETER. DETAIN. DECIDE. DEPORT. Anyone arriving illegally without a verified identity should be placed in a secure, locked and properly controlled centre while we establish who they are and decide their claim. If the claim is accepted, they enter through the proper legal process. If it fails, they are deported—immediately. No hotel. No disappearing act. No endless legal merry-go-round. Britain's first duty is not to illegal arrivals, activist lawyers or Burnham's hand-wringing liberal friends. The first duty of any government is the safety and security of the British people. Piddington's vote may be symbolic, but the fury behind it is real. People are sick of being ignored, insulted and ordered to accept decisions imposed upon their communities without meaningful consent. Burnham needs to wake up. If politicians continue dismissing legitimate fears and forcing this failed policy upon unwilling communities, they will drive tensions through the roof. Stop spreading the problem. Stop the boats. Secure the camps. Decide the claims quickly—and chuck out everyone who has no right to remain. Join Jon Gaunt and tell me: Should everybody arriving illegally without verified identification be securely detained until their claim is decided? LIKE. COMMENT. SUBSCRIBE.

FORGET PIDDINGTON! UK NEEDS REFERENDUM ON THE IMMIGRATION INVASION! #JonGaunt #JonGauntTV #ImmigrationReferendum #Piddington #PatrickChristys #GBNews #IllegalImmigration #SmallBoats Forget holding one local referendum in Piddington—the entire British nation deserves a vote! For decades, Westminster politicians have imposed mass immigration upon Britain without ever giving the British people a direct national vote. We were never properly consulted, yet our communities are expected to live with the consequences. The violence exposed in Patrick Christys' disturbing GB News report from France should serve as a massive warning. Why are we allowing thousands of people to cross the Channel before their identities, histories and right to enter Britain have been properly established? Now an anonymous Home Office whistleblower has told The Times that, in his experience, only one in every 100 asylum claims is genuinely true. That is an explosive allegation from somebody who worked inside the system. If the Government disputes it, ministers should publish the evidence and prove him wrong! Britain is already facing rising community tensions and serious concerns about rape, sexual attacks and violent crime. Nobody is claiming that every migrant is a criminal—but when crimes are committed by people who should never have been allowed to remain here, the British public has every right to demand answers. The first duty of government is to protect British citizens. Instead, our politicians appear determined to protect a failed asylum system. Enough tinkering. Enough excuses. Enough moving migrants from one hotel, camp or community to another. Britain needs a national referendum and one clear policy: DETER illegal entry. DETAIN arrivals whose identities and entitlement to enter cannot be verified. DEPORT those with no legal right to remain.

NIGEL FARAGE IS LIVING RENT-FREE IN BIG ANG'S HEAD! GIVE US AN ELECTION! #NigelFarage #AngelaRayner #ReformUK #TUC #GeneralElection #UKPolitics #JonGaunt #JonGauntTV Angela Rayner went to the TUC Congress today—but instead of explaining how Labour will fix broken Britain, she launched yet another attack on Nigel Farage and Reform UK. Rayner accused Reform of threatening workers' rights, branded Farage's donors his "sugar daddies" and sneered: "If Farage will do you a Cameo for £70, just ask yourself what he'd do for £70 million." Honestly, Nigel Farage is living rent-free in Big Ang's head! Labour appears obsessed with stopping Reform, attacking its donors and changing the political funding rules—rather than confronting why millions of working-class voters have abandoned Labour in the first place. If Rayner and Labour are so certain that Reform doesn't represent working people, there is one simple solution: MAN UP. CALL A GENERAL ELECTION. LET THE PEOPLE DECIDE. Stop hiding behind speeches, smears and parliamentary manoeuvres. Put Labour's record against Reform's policies and allow the British public to deliver the verdict. Are Labour genuinely defending democracy—or desperately trying to nobble their biggest political threat?

They discuss whether decades of globalisation have made economies more resilient or dangerously dependent, China’s manufacturing advantage and whether the UK and Europe can rebuild their industrial base without giving up the cheap goods consumers have come to expect.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In June 2023, Grace O'Malley-Kumar, Barnaby Webber and Ian Coates were stabbed to death by Valdo Calocane, a paranoid schizophrenic who is currently serving an indefinite hospital order. The months-long public inquiry into their deaths has revealed a staggering number of failures by the authorities, and a widespread culture of denial and unaccountability. So what went wrong? And what lessons can be learned? This podcast was brought to you thanks to the support of readers of The Times and The Sunday Times.

BURNHAM: "WE STAND WITH THE UNDERDOG!" — BUT WHAT ABOUT US BRITS? #AndyBurnham #PMQs #JonGaunt #JonGauntTV #UKPolitics #Israel #Palestine #BritishPeople #Underdog Andy Burnham stood at the despatch box at PMQs today and proudly declared that Britain will "always stand with the underdog." Really, Andy? Then here's my question: WHAT ABOUT US BRITS?! What about ordinary British people struggling with the cost of living? What about communities demanding action on crime, antisocial behaviour and illegal immigration? What about people who feel increasingly ignored by the political establishment in their own country? Burnham says Britain must stand against injustice and has defended his Government's action against Israeli settlements in the West Bank as an example of British leadership. But I want to know: WHEN DOES THAT SAME PASSION GET DIRECTED AT THE PROBLEMS HERE AT HOME? This isn't a debate about whether Palestinians or Israelis deserve peace, security and justice — of course they do. It's about the priorities of the BRITISH Prime Minister. Burnham says he wants to fight for the underdog. Well Andy, millions of ordinary British people feel like THEY'RE THE UNDERDOGS IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY. I'm asking whether Burnham and his Government are more interested in making grand gestures on the world stage than sorting out Britain.
BURNHAM & MILIBAND ARE SO OUT OF TOUCH WITH UK THEY'RE DANGEROUS! #AndyBurnham #EdMiliband #Labour #UKPolitics #Israel #Gaza ##JonGaunt #JonGauntTV What planet are Andy Burnham and Ed Miliband living on?! Britain has a border crisis. People are furious about illegal migration. We have protests and growing anger over what's happening in places like Dover and Portsmouth. Families are still being hammered by the cost of living. So what do Burnham and Miliband apparently think Britain needs right now? A FIGHT WITH ISRAEL! Instead of concentrating relentlessly on our borders, illegal migration, law and order and the cost of living, they want to make Israel another huge political battleground. How does THAT make your food cheaper? How does THAT bring your energy bills down? How does THAT control our borders? How does THAT stop the boats? And what could damaging relations with an important security partner ultimately do to Britain's own security? This is exactly what drives ordinary working people mad about modern politics. PERFORMATIVE POLITICS. GESTURES. POSTURING. EVERYTHING EXCEPT DEALING WITH THE PROBLEMS PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY WORRIED ABOUT. Instead, once again, Labour politicians appear more interested in satisfying pressure from their own political flank over Gaza and Israel. Meanwhile the boats keep coming and ordinary people keep paying the bill. GET YOUR PRIORITIES RIGHT! Jon Gaunt asks: are Burnham and Miliband simply out of touch — or are their priorities now becoming dangerous for Britain?
John Healey gave his first major speech as Chancellor on Monday, aiming to show that the economy has ‘turned a corner'. But his comments have been overshadowed by a background of turmoil in the bond markets, thousands of job cuts, and speculation that he is offering very little different to his predecessor Rachel Reeves. So what did this speech tell us about the new Chancellor? And will he have to raise taxes at the budget in October?

BURNHAM: WE ARE NOT THUGS! YOU ARE A COWARD — LISTEN TO BRITAIN! #AndyBurnham #Portsmouth #StopTheBoats #BorderCrisis #UKPolitics #JonGaunt #JonGauntTV NO ARRESTS! NOT ONE! SO STOP CALLING ORDINARY BRITS THUGS! After the extraordinary scenes in Portsmouth last night, Andy Burnham and his Government have done what this political class ALWAYS does. They blame YOU. They lecture YOU. They demonise YOU. Instead of asking why ordinary British people are so bloody angry, they reach for the insults — "thugs", "intimidating", the usual establishment rubbish designed to shut down debate. Well, I've got a message for Burnham tonight: WE ARE NOT THUGS. WE ARE NOT THE PROBLEM. START LISTENING TO THE PEOPLE WHO PAY YOUR WAGES! And here's the fact they can't brush aside: THERE WERE NO ARRESTS LAST NIGHT. If the police have evidence that an individual committed an offence, investigate them and deal with them. Simple. But don't smear an entire protest because you don't like its message. The message from Portsmouth was one we've heard across Britain: STOP THE BOATS! SECURE OUR BORDERS! PUT BRITISH PEOPLE FIRST! How many prime ministers, home secretaries and governments have promised to sort this mess out? And what have we got? More excuses. More spin. More lectures. And more politicians apparently incapable of understanding the anger outside the Westminster bubble. Burnham was supposed to be different. Different? He sounds more like Starmer every bloody day! The British working class has had enough of being talked down to by politicians who expect their votes and taxes but don't appear interested in listening to what they're saying. Tonight I'm asking: WHO ARE THE REAL THUGS? The people demanding secure borders? Or a political establishment that repeatedly promises action and then fails to deliver? Britain is angry. Portsmouth showed it again last night. Burnham can either start LISTENING to that anger — or carry on demonising the people expressing it. Because continually ignoring millions of people and treating legitimate anger with contempt is a dangerous road for this country. I WANT YOUR VIEWS — AND I DON'T WANT YOU TO HOLD BACK!
DOVER MASKED PROTESTERS: DO YOU SUPPORT THEM? #JonGauntTV #Dover #DoverProtest #FaceCoverings #NigelFarage #UKPolitics #JonGaunt Do you support the masked STOP THE BOATS protesters in Dover — or did they go too far by covering their faces and blocking the roads? I understand the anger over illegal immigration. I understand why people feel Westminster simply isn't listening. But if you believe strongly enough in your cause to take to the streets, why hide your face behind a balaclava? I don't want masked political protests becoming the norm in Britain — whether they come from the right, left or anywhere else. But that raises a much bigger and potentially uncomfortable question. If we want to ban balaclavas and masks at demonstrations, why shouldn't we have a proper debate about ALL face coverings in public — including the niqab and burqa? Should the law distinguish between somebody covering their face for political protest and somebody doing so for religious reasons? Or should Britain simply say: ONE RULE FOR EVERYONE — faces should be visible in public? And there's another question: did the Dover protesters actually HELP the Stop the Boats campaign — or damage it? Today I want YOUR opinion.
In this bonus episode, I chat with top crime reporter, Martin Brunt.Martin spent 36 years at Sky News and built such a reputation for contacts that, during the 2006 Ipswich serial murders, a police press officer reportedly told a rival journalist: 'Call Martin Brunt. He knows everything before we do.' Martin Brunt joined Sky for its launch in 1989, reported from the Gulf and Balkan wars, then became one of Britain's best-known crime reporters, covering cases including Fred and Rose West, Sarah Payne, Jill Dando, Madeleine McCann and the Hatton Garden raid. His book, 'No One Got Cracked Over the Head for No Reason', opens up his notebook on the victims, detectives, villains, sources, errors and ethical choices behind those headlines, and asks why some crimes seize the public imagination while others barely register. Martin stepped back from full time reporting in 2025, but retirement seems to have evaded him: he remains a Sky crime commentator and, with Helen Fospero, co-hosts the award-winning True Criminals podcast. I release new episodes of the UK True Crime podcast every Tuesday and Friday - please join me for the next episode on Tuesday.Listen to Martin's podcast, 'True Criminals'Search 'true criminals' in any podcast app or go to: https://open.spotify.com/show/13ygW5EE83FbE3CZeLdUQ6Buy Martin's book:https://www.amazon.co.uk/One-Cracked-Over-Head-Reason-ebook/dp/B0BSB8FQT4Find out more about me, Adam Lloyd, & UK True Crimehttps://uktruecrime.comSupport me at Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/UKTrueCrimeBuy Me a Coffeehttps://buymeacoffee.com/uktruecrimepodcastWatch my YouTube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@Adam-uktruecrime/videosJoin UK True Crime Facebook Grouphttps://www.facebook.com/groups/UKTrueCrime Hosted on Acast.

Trade has shaped human civilisation for thousands of years. From the copper used in Mesopotamian ploughs to the silicon inside our smartphones, vast networks have evolved to move the materials and products on which modern life depends. Yet much of this system remains invisible, only becoming clear when disruption exposes how fragile and interconnected it really is. In this episode, host Carl Miller speaks with journalist and bestselling author Ed Conway about the hidden world behind the things we buy. Through the stories of bread, cloth and cars, Ed traces the extraordinary journeys taken by everyday products and reveals the people and supply chains that make them possible. From the Corn Laws to the National Loaf and the fish finger, he shows how trade has shaped what ends up on our shelves and plates. Why has trade become one of the defining geopolitical issues of our time? What happens when governments intervene in supply chains? And how does the global economy respond when those networks are ruptured? Drawing on economic history and first-hand reporting, Ed explores how trade adapts and reshapes the world around us. Ed Conway is a writer and broadcaster. He is the Economics and Data Editor of Sky News and a regular columnist for The Times and Sunday Times. He has won numerous awards for his journalism and his book Material World was a Sunday Times bestseller and nominated for multiple prizes and books-of-the-year lists. Carl Miller is a Senior Fellow at Demos and founder of the Centre for the Analysis of Social Media (CASM). He is the co-writer and host of the investigative podcast Kill List and is the author of The Death of the Gods: the New Global Power Grab.
