Welfare Bill Revolt SINKS Starmer — 120 Labour MPs Rebel | Labour Crisis #JonGaunt #WelfareBill #KeirStarmer #UKPolitics #LabourParty   Jon Gaunt breaks down the explosive Welfare Bill revolt, as 120 Labour MPs rebel against Keir Starmer's leadership. This unprecedented internal revolt could sink Starmer's leadership and trigger a full-scale Labour Party crisis. Starmer loses either way. If he wins the actual vote he is still the loser as this is clearly a vote of confidence on his first 12 months in office. He has made more missteps than a fat TV personality on Strictly! Winter fuel allowance U-Turn, VAT on private schools, calling Southport protestors Far Right, Lucy Connolly, Ukraine, Not backing Trump on Iran and plenty more. He has the worst poll ratings of any PM in history. Can he survive? What does this mean for UK politics in 2025? And with Starmer's position now under intense pressure, who could replace him? Angela Rayner? Andy Burnham, the Mayor of Manchester? Or Sadiq Khan, the Mayor of London? Gaunty examines the political fallout, party divisions, and the battle for Labour's future.

This week is Refugee Week, a time to celebrate the contributions, creativity and resilience of refugees and people seeking sanctuary. And here at Media Storm, we can't do it without delving into media hypocrisy when reporting on the group. Why do closed borders not work - and why, in the face of hard evidence, do politicians still continue to ignore the facts and figures on displacement?  We're joined in the studio by Ugandan model and transgender refugee rights activist, ⁠Amanda Kamanda⁠, and Iranian Refugee Olympic athlete, ⁠Dorsa Yavarivafa⁠. They tell us about the importance of LGBTQ+ refugee protection and the power of sport to create community. In contrast, we cover the rise of homophobia and transphobia in the West, and specifically in media coverage of migration. After the break, we turn our focus onto the US where anti-ICE protests embody the theme of this week's Refugee Week: ‘Community as a Superpower'. And as we approach the one-year anniversary of UK riots after the Southport stabbing, our guests also respond to Keir Starmer's ‘Island of Strangers' speech.  The episode is hosted and produced by Mathilda Mallinson (⁠⁠⁠@mathildamall⁠⁠⁠) and Helena Wadia (⁠⁠⁠@helenawadia⁠⁠⁠)  The music is by⁠⁠⁠ @soundofsamfire⁠⁠⁠ Support us on⁠⁠⁠ Patreon⁠⁠⁠!

It's been 3 days since the streets of Ballymena in Northern Ireland went from peaceful protest to full on riots. Since then, 41 police officers have been injured, rioters have hurled petrol bombs, and people have fled their homes as hate-filled mobs set fire to them. As the tensions builds and the protests turn to racist rioting, is this more of what we saw in Southport last summer, or is this specific to Northern Irish identity? Later, Jon sits down with Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson and Jamie Oliver to talk about his latest campaign on how the education system leaves children with dyslexia behind.The News Agents is brought to you by HSBC UK - https://www.hsbc.co.uk/

The police's rapid announcement of the age, ethnicity, and nationality of the Liverpool parade suspect shows they've learned lessons from the 2024 Southport attack.Within two hours of a car hitting a crowd of Liverpool fans as they celebrated their team parading the Premier League trophy, Merseyside Police said they had arrested a "53-year-old white British man from the Liverpool area".Last summer, the same force was criticised in the aftermath of the Southport stabbings when online speculation and misinformation filled a void after the same force released few details about a 17-year-old – later revealed to be Axel Rudakubana – that they had in custody.On today's Sky News Daily, Matt Barbet is joined by our north of England correspondent Katerina Vittozzi, who is in Liverpool, and Helen King, former assistant chief constable for Merseyside Police, who talks about the challenges of policing online speculation. 

It took Merseyside police less than two hours to release information about the suspect who'd been arrested in the Liverpool parade crash which injured close to 50 people. The force told the public that it was a 53-year-old white British man from the Liverpool area who had been detained. Right wing commentators and conspiracy theorists had already started speculating about the potential ethnicity and the motives behind the man alleged to have been involved. So was it sensible policing aimed at quelling the misinformation? Or did the decision reveal just how close we are to unrest - like we saw in Southport - spook the police into revealing more than they normally would? LBC's crime correspondent Andy Hughes assesses the mood within the police.Later, what if that much heralded "unprecedented" second state visit for Donald Trump never happened?

On 29 July last year, three young girls were stabbed to death while attending a Taylor Swift dance class.Bebe King, 6, Elsie Dot Stancombe, 7, and Alice da Silva Aguiar, 9, were killed by Axel Rudakubana, who was jailed for a minimum of 52 years.A day after the attack, riots broke out on the streets of Southport and over the coming days spread right across the nation.The protests were fuelled by false claims on social media that the perpetrator of the Southport attack was a Muslim and an asylum seeker.ITV West Country presenter, Sabet Choudhury has explored the factors behind last summer's anti-immigration riots by hearing from those who took part and those who have been left in fear.

Jon Gaunt LIVE: Can Starmer survive? Lies, Scandals & Meltdown. KeirStarmer #UKPolitics #JonGauntLive #LabourParty #NigelFarage Keir Starmer swept to power in a landslide — but now he's one of the most unpopular PMs in history. What went wrong? Jon Gaunt breaks down the scandals, broken promises, and political chaos surrounding one of the most controversial Prime Ministers in modern UK history.

Inflation has risen to 3.5%, putting fresh pressure on the Bank of England and on households already feeling the squeeze. But that's not the only storm brewing for the Labour Party. A leaked memo from Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner to Chancellor Rachel Reeves has exposed a growing rift at the top of the Labour Party. In an exclusive report, our political editor Ben Riley-Smith reveals how the two are at odds over tax hikes on savers and investors and what the row means for Labour's economic credibility ahead of the next election.And we speak to Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe, former Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, about the state of policing and our justice system right now - from Lucy Connolly's prison sentence to Southport victim Leanne Lucas calling for sharp bladed kitchen knives to be banned.

Ola Bossio is an incredibly talented artist who immigrated from Poland in 1999 at just 20 years old. Joining her older sister who had arrived prior to Ola, she immediately immersed herself into English classes and began to work. Originally from north Poland, which borders Russia, she felt moving to the United States would bring more opportunities than under the regime she was living in. Living in a predominantly Polish neighborhood in CT she found community and initial comfort in being able to speak her native language and felt safe and free to express herself more openly. She met and fell in love with an American man and started her beautiful family while slowly dabbling in more painting and creative outlets. She paints landscapes of her favorite places in Poland which brings her peace and serenity. She describes Poland as a grey place because of the climate, but her paintings are full of natural color and celebrate the sky and vast fields of nature. Ola has been in art galleries and shows in Southport and Stamford, CT and was recently picked to show her work at the prestigious New Britain American Art Museum. She is incredibly proud of being picked for this showcase her work. Her life in the U.S. is deeply focused on family and faith and she's abundantly grateful for all she's been able to accomplish.

"Lucy Connolly: Political Prisoner or Racist?" LucyConnolly #PoliticalPrisoner #FreeSpeech #KeirStarmer #SouthportMurders Lucy Connolly lost her appeal today. She's now serving a 31-month sentence for a single offensive tweet—a tweet she deleted just three hours after posting it, during the emotional fallout of the Southport murders. Her defence argued she was traumatised, both by the brutal incident and by the loss of her own child. The controversial tweet allegedly incited anger and contributed to riots near a migrant hotel. With limited legal support, Lucy Connolly pleaded guilty, advised by a duty lawyer to accept a lesser sentence. But was justice really served? Many now claim she was used as a political example—a warning to others. Meanwhile, it's been revealed that Keir Starmer may have withheld information about Axel Rudakubana, the man behind the Southport killings—information that could have helped prevent the riots. In a time when the UK faces a prison overcrowding crisis, and more dangerous offenders are being released early, the case raises serious questions: • Is Lucy Connolly a political prisoner or simply being held accountable? • Is there a two-tier justice system in Britain? • Who should police public speech—the courts, or the police?

Cam Burt gives Naughtsie the lowdown of who performed well for Casey on what ended up being a pretty dirty day, kicking 6.17 and going down to Southport.

Lucy Connolly vs Huw Edwards: Double Standards? #JusticeForLucy #FreeSpeechUK #TwoTierJustice #UKPolitics #LucyConnolly Is the UK justice system truly blind — or are we witnessing a disturbing double standard? Lucy Connolly was sentenced to 31 months in prison for a controversial social media post following the tragic events in Southport. Meanwhile, high-profile figures like BBC presenter Huw Edwards received suspended sentences for far more serious offenses involving child abuse imagery. This video explores the shocking contrast in sentencing, raising urgent questions about free speech, political persecution, and a two-tier justice system in the UK. Was Lucy Connolly made an example of to silence dissent and suppress unrest following the riots? Are grooming gang members and political elites being treated more leniently by the courts? We also examine the role of Keir Starmer and the controversial case of Axel Rudakubana — could timely information have prevented widespread violence? Why was it withheld? Key topics covered: Political prisoners in the UK? Freedom of speech vs. incitement Double standards in sentencing Media bias and censorship Public trust in the police and courts Justice must be fair, impartial, and accountable. The British public deserves answers.

Is the death penalty justice or revenge?With 2,474 people on US death row in 2025 and debates raging globally, UnHerd's Editor-in-Chief Freddie Sayers sits down with Peter in this latest episode, to go through his arguments, tackling such concerns like the risks of executing the innocent and the efficacy of deterrence, as well as how Peter - a committed Anglican - reconciles his position with his Christian faith.In the UK, despite capital punishment being abolished in 1965, new polling shows younger generations now favour it (even above some older groups), perhaps spurred by rising crime and cases like Axel Rudakubana's murder of three girls in Southport. But flaws in the criminal justice system continue to be exposed as news of the longest miscarriage of justice emerges with the freeing of Peter Sullivan, once convicted of the brutal 1986 murder of florist Diane Sindall, having served 38 years in prison.The conversation around capital punishment resurfaces once again amid increasing calls for it to be reintroduced, and MPs, like Lee Anderson and Richard Tice, demanding national debate.

Southport Atrocity Fallout: Did Silence From Starmer and Police Fuel the Riots?  #SouthportRiots #KeirStarmer #UKPolitics #PoliceAccountability #FreedomOfSpeech In the aftermath of the Southport atrocity and the violent unrest that followed, a growing number of voices—including legal experts and counter-terrorism advisors—are questioning whether the government's lack of transparency helped ignite the very violence it aimed to prevent. Jon Gaunt examines: • The official report from the Chief Inspector of Constabulary. • Criticism of Prime Minister Keir Starmer's crisis response. • The role of misinformation and the consequences of an information vacuum. • Public perceptions of policing bias—and why they matter. • Allegations of unfair imprisonment and tragic consequences. Jon Gaunt also proposes constructive steps forward, including a review of prosecutions, a public inquiry into the communications failure, and reforms to police disclosure protocols. This is a sensitive and complex topic, handled with care and respect. The goal is not to inflame but to inform—and to ask whether government caution actually made things worse.

Change is a part of life—but in your 40s and beyond, it can feel messier, more emotional, and a lot harder to navigate. In this episode, I'm digging into why change often hits differently in midlife, the feelings it stirs up (spoiler: you're not alone!), and how to move through it with more ease and self-compassion. Whether you're facing shifts in your health, relationships, career, or sense of self, this conversation is here to remind you that it's okay to feel all the things—and that there's real strength on the other side of transition.THE WELL NOURISHED WOMAN COMMUNITY

Has Labour abandoned the white working class under Keir Starmer? KeirStarmer #LabourParty #LucyPowell #GroomingGangs #WorkingClassVoices In this video, Jon Gaunt dives into the growing political backlash facing the Labour Party UK. From the Southport protests to the grooming gangs scandal and the ongoing small boat crisis at Dover, many working-class voters feel ignored and betrayed. Starmer's refusal to launch a full grooming gang inquiry, Lucy Powell's controversial “dog whistle politics” comments, and Labour's stance on illegal immigration are fueling claims of a two-tier justice system in the UK. Meanwhile, Reform UK is gaining momentum, especially among those who believe Labour no longer represents working-class communities. Gaunty asks, Is this the beginning of the end for Labour's traditional base? Has the white working class been left behind for the sake of political optics?

Keir Starmer is too weak to lead Britain — and why Nigel Farage will crush him.

We Don't Need Starmer's Flag Lessons! We Don't Need Starmer's Flag Lessons! #KeirStarmer #SaintGeorgesDay #EnglishFlag #ReformUK #BritishPolitics  On Saint George's Day 2025, Keir Starmer stood outside Downing Street with Gary Lineker and other political allies to deliver what he called a patriotic message — but what looked more like a calculated political move. By wrapping himself in the St George's flag, Starmer claimed the Labour Party is the “true patriotic party” of British politics. But this was no celebration of English identity — it was a transparent attempt to hijack English patriotism and fight off the growing threat of Nigel Farage and Reform UK, who are gaining fast in the polls. Starmer says he wants to “take the flag back from extremists” — but who gave it away in the first place? If anyone's been divisive, it's Starmer himself. After the Southport massacre, he smeared all the protestors as “far-right thugs” and withheld details about Axel RudaKubana, the man whose murder triggered national outrage. Even his own counter-terrorism czar admitted this silence helped spark the riots. Let's also not forget the Emily Thornberry flag scandal back in 2014 — where the top Labour MP mocked a home displaying the English flag. She was demoted, but now Starmer has elevated her to the House of Lords. That's Labour's idea of accountability?  The flag of Saint George is not a symbol of hate or division — it's a symbol of the English working class, of tradition, and of pride. But in Starmer's politically correct, divided version of England, even the definition of a woman is up for debate. The people of England don't need flag lessons from the Labour Party. We need honesty, unity, and leadership that respects our national values — not more empty gestures.

Hundreds of children were caught up in riots with well over 100 arrested and a number charged last summer after the murder of three children in Southport.
