The Daily T

In today’s special edition of The Royal T, as both the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are awaiting a review into their individual security status to determine whether they are entitled to receive taxpayer-funded security, Camilla Tominey and Victoria Ward speak to Paul Lewis -- a close protection expert who has run security operations for royal and high net-worth individuals for more than 20 years.

He explains the logistics and eye-watering cost of the security Prince Harry and Meghan would need as both private citizens and high-profile members of the Royal family.

Paul reveals why the Sussexes’ full security detail could cost up to £12m in the UK, why social media has exacerbated modern security risks and why private teams without armed authority struggle to counter these threats, compared to state-level intelligence resources.

Tax hell: How Andy Burnham’s £10bn black hole will hit your wallet

In today’s edition of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Jacob Rees-Mogg are joined by Tim McNally, the chairman of Piddington parish council, who explains why he is going for the “political jugular” by holding a symbolic referendum on the village leaving the UK.

He says the Government’s proposals to house more than 1,200 migrants in the Oxfordshire village has prompted residents to plan to take self-defence classes and install a CCTV and an emergency alert system. Plus, Jacob explains why he feels that some of the residents have brought this problem on themselves.

Elsewhere, Camilla sits down with Lucy Letby’s barrister, Mark McDonald, following the release of Lady Justice Thirlwall’s Inquiry report into the safety failings at the Countess of Chester Hospital. He argues the inquiry was flawed from the start because it refused to question Letby’s convictions, relied on prosecution narrative hypotheses, and denied Letby the opportunity to participate as a core witness.
