The Daily T

Reform’s walked out of Prime Minister’s Questions this lunchtime, infuriated at Sir Keir Starmer’s refusal to answer Nigel Farage’s question about small boat crossings.

Reform deputy leader Richard Tice tells Camilla and Tim that his party felt it was time to “make a point” about Starmer’s “rude” and “arrogant” behaviour.

Elsewhere, they also examine the timeline of Morgan McSweeney’s stolen phone, with the news it was in fact lost shortly after Peter Mandelson had been sacked. The plot thickens with reports today that McSweeney didn’t tell police who he was, or that the phone contained top-level government material, when he informed them of the theft.

PMQs chaos as Reform storms out over 'arrogant' Starmer

Donald Trump says he is negotiating with Iran – but won’t say who with – while, at the same time, thousands of US marines are arriving in the Middle East. Iran says reports of negotiations with the US president are “fake news” and it has placed mines in the Strait of Hormuz.

Camilla and Tim attempt to get inside Trump's mind and ask whether he truly is negotiating with Iran with the aim of pulling off an extraordinary feat of international statecraft, or buying time to prepare for a ground invasion.

They also speak to Greg Swenson, the chairman of Republicans Overseas, who says the president does have a plan and does not want to telegraph his every move.

Trump's Iran gamble: madness or masterstroke?

Camilla and Tim react to a shocking arson attack on Hatzola ambulances in Golders Green, with the Government's antisemitism adviser Lord Mann telling The Daily T that "this wasn't random, this was done to scare the Jewish community".

We also hear from the diplomat who lifts the lid on alleged Islamist sympathisers inside the Foreign Office, after civil servants attended an event celebrating the anniversary of the Iranian revolution, only weeks after the regime had begun brutally crackdown on its own people, killing thousands.

Britain’s growing Muslim antisemitism problem

A self-made financier, a master manipulator or a fraud hiding in plain sight? Jeffrey Epstein’s story begins in Brooklyn. He was the son of working-class parents and left university without a degree. Yet somehow he talked his way into elite classrooms and, eventually, the highest tiers of Wall Street.

On today’s Daily T, Camilla and our writers Mick Brown and Robert Mendick trace Epstein’s ascent from a maths-savvy teenager and eccentric teacher to a powerful operator entrusted with billions. They explore his carefully constructed persona, the influential connections and the troubling behaviour that followed him long before his high-profile crimes came to light.

Who was the real Jeffrey Epstein and how did he get away with it for so long?

Power, secrets and lies: The making of Epstein

"Deranged conspiracy and melodrama". That's how Harry and Meghan have described Tom Bower's explosive new book about them - 'Betrayal' - saying it had "crossed the line from criticism into fixation". 

On today's Daily T, Tom joins Camilla and Tim in the studio and says that's nonsense; they're awful, and the treachery, disloyalty, and duplicity of the Sussex's post Royal life could see them being cut out of the Royal Family for good.

‘Treacherous, disloyal and duplicitous’: The explosive new book about Harry and Meghan

Is it really a Prime Minister’s Questions if the Prime Minister refuses to answer any questions? That was the frustration in the Commons this lunchtime, with Kemi Badenoch attempting to pin Sir Keir Starmer down on Peter Mandelson's appointment, but to no avail.

Camilla and Tim assess a fractious and chaotic PMQs.

Elsewhere, they speak to Sir Geoffrey Cox, the Conservative MP and former attorney general, after a barnstorming parliamentary speech in which he excoriated David Lammy’s plans to limit trials by jury – a feature of our justice system which Sir Geoffrey tells The Daily T is “intrinsic to the English character”.

Starmer's ‘farcical’ PMQs as Rayner starts leadership race

Rachel Reeves has used her ‘Mais Lecture’ speech at Bayes Business School to announce a ‘deeper relationship’ with the European Union, criticising Brexit for the damage it has done to the UK economy.

Camilla, Tim and Allister Heath question why the Government is choosing to pursue closer relations with a bloc whose growth is a fraction of the United States’, and ask whether it’s more of an idealogical choice than a pragmatic one.

Elsewhere, Camilla and Tim attend Reform’s latest press conference, which saw Nigel Farage launch a competition promising to pay the energy bills of the winner and their entire street for a year. Speaking to The Daily T, Farage also had his say on his party’s poll lead after YouGov were forced into changing how they show results following complaints from Reform.

‘Insanity!’: Rachel Reeves’ reckless EU gamble

Keir Starmer has once again refused to be commit to any kind of support for the conflict in the Middle East, even after Donald Trump promised “he will remember” the UK’s lack of action.

In a press conference this morning, Sir Keir also refused to clarify whether fuel duty would rise in September, with the conflict already sending forecourt prices through the roof.

After a weekend that saw damning extracts of a new book that paints Sir Keir as a Prime Minister in name only, with no fixed ideas, philosophy or political instinct, Camilla and Tim ask – what is the point in his premiership?

No philosophy, no beliefs, no ideas: inside Starmer’s collapsing premiership

In one of his most candid interviews to date, William Hague admits to the Daily T that his stint at leader was “the least successful period of my career”.

The former Conservative leader and foreign secretary tells Camilla and Tim he was too young to command the role. Hague also reveals how it felt going head to head with Tony Blair every week and opens up about the intrusion into his private life while in the public eye.

Plus, he says Keir Starmer’s “flatfooted” response to the Iran war has brought on a “rocky” period in the special relationship but admits he is “haunted” by Iraq – a military intervention he supported at the time.

William Hague: Starmer has been humiliated on the world stage

It’s the day after the release of the Mandelson files and now attention is turning to what isn’t in the documents. Crucially, we don’t know how the Prime Minister responded once he was presented with clear evidence that the Labour peer had a close friendship with Jeffrey Epstein.

Sir Keir has insisted to Parliament that due process was followed at all times. But Tim and Camilla ask: do the revelations contained in these files make a mockery of that claim?

Plus, the Government has pushed ahead with a formal definition of anti-Muslim hate despite concerns that it will be used to suppress free speech. We’re joined by the former Tory MP and lawyer Dominic Grieve, who co-wrote the new definition, to ask why Labour is prioritising this kind of discrimination just as anti-Semitism is on the rise.

Starmer takes responsibility for Mandelson – but did he lie to Parliament?

The Mandelson files have been released, and they are damning.

The documents reveal that Sir Keir Starmer was warned that appointing Lord Mandelson as US ambassador posed a “reputational risk” over his “particularly close” relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. They also make clear the PM knew the peer remained friends with Epstein even after his conviction for child sex offences.

After sifting through the 147 pages, Tim and Camilla decipher the biggest revelations – including that Lord Mandelson was handed a £75,000 payout amid fears he might “go public”.
