The Daily T

It’s been a year since the shocking Southport attacks and the controversial social media crackdown that followed. 

Gordon Rayner speaks to Simon Pearson, a teacher who lost his job after criticising ‘two-tier justice’ in the case of Lucy Connolly who was jailed last year after posting about the summer riots on her X account. 

In a post on social media, Pearson, who taught adults at Preston College, said Connolly’s online comments were “obviously wrong” but she “should not have been jailed”. 

We hear how Pearson has struggled to find another job after he was sacked and why he is taking legal action. 

Meanwhile, Tory infighting erupts as Kemi Badenoch and Liz Truss go head-to-head in public. In a Telegraph column, Badenoch blamed Truss’s 2022 mini-budget for wrecking the Conservative economic legacy, while Truss accessed Badenoch of repeating “spurious narratives” to deflect from her own party’s failures. 

Tim and Cleo discuss what is really behind this clash and what it means for the party.

The teacher sacked for speaking out about Lucy Connolly and two-tier justice

Since Labour’s controversial 20% VAT on private school fees has taken effect, over 50 private schools have closed, with many more at risk. 

The policy was meant to raise billions to hire new teachers, but The Telegraph’s exclusive analysis reveals it may have the opposite effect.

In today’s episode of The Daily T, Tim Stanley and Cleo Watson speak to Julie Robinson, CEO of the Independent Schools Council, about how schools are shutting their doors, the impact on SEND pupils, and how the wealthiest families are avoiding the tax altogether by paying fees up front.

And why is everyone talking about Sydney Sweeney and… her jeans? The White Lotus star is making headlines after a new American Eagle campaign and revelations that she’s a registered Republican - and now even President Donald Trump is getting involved.

Can private schools survive Labour?

Sir Andy Cooke, HM Chief Inspector of Constabulary, has told the Sunday Telegraph that there is “every possibility” of rioting this summer, in a repeat of last year's unrest following the Southport murders, as the same ingredients that fuelled that disorder are still very much in place now.

With anger at the housing of migrants in hotels spilling over into more violent demonstrations at the weekend, as well as the Telegraph's exclusive story that pro-Palestinian supporters are co-orindating in an attempt to overwhelm the police, are we on the brink of major civil unrest?

Gordon Rayner and Cleo Watson are joined by Martin Evans, the Telegraph's Crime Editor, who's been speaking to sources within the police to find out how braced for trouble they are, whilst Cleo reveals how Downing Street may be unprepared with Westminster in summer shutdown.

Is this another summer of discontent?

Whether it's the trans issue, net zero, vaccines and masks, Israel and Gaza or DEI, everywhere they hold power liberals are trying to cancel Righties and shut down debate – from university campuses to inside the civil service.

Tim and Camilla are joined by American cultural psychologist Luke Conway, whose new book Liberal Bullies goes inside the minds of Leftists to understand why they can be such authoritarian bullies.

Why the Left are such bullies

Reform UK is calling for a crackdown on crime this summer, amid a growing public perception that Britain is lawless – and that the police can’t be trusted to handle it.

Meanwhile record numbers of foreign sex offenders and violent criminals are being held in British jails. Camilla and Gordon are joined by former detective Peter Bleksley to understand what’s gone wrong with policing in the UK.

Plus, this week the child rape scandal took a sickening turn when it emerged that several grooming gang survivors allege they were also abused by South Yorkshire Police officers. We hear from the lawyer representing the women.

Have the police lost Britain’s respect?

The Prime Minister Keir Starmer has said Britain could recognise a Palestinian state as early as September, but only if Israel takes “substantive steps” to end the crisis in Gaza. 

He has made four specific demands of Israel: end the “appalling” situation in Gaza and allow 500 aid trucks in a day, reach a ceasefire, “make clear” there will be no annexation in the West Bank and commit to a long-term peace process that delivers a two-state solution. 

But Israel, the US and even hostage families argue that such a move “rewards Hamas” and “validates terrorism.”

Camilla and Gordon examine whether Britain’s recognition would carry real weight on the global stage and hear analysis from former Home Secretary Priti Patel who has accused the Labour Government of not playing a leading role in key negotiations to free the hostages, get aid into Gaza or advocate for a proper peace plan or process.

Meanwhile, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Egypt have urged Hamas to disband to enable the creation of a Palestinian state. We ask The Telegraph’s Jerusalem Correspondent Henry Bodkin how likely it is that Hamas will step aside as the humanitarian crisis worsens.

Priti Patel: Starmer and 'Calamity Lammy' have given a free pass to Hamas

It’s exactly one year since Axel Rudakubana turned up to a Taylor Swift-themed summer holiday dance event in the seaside town of Southport, killing three girls (Alice Aguiar, Elsie Dot Stancombe and Bebe King) and attempting to murder ten others. 

In the days that followed, the town was rocked by riots as tensions in the community boiled over, prompting a heavy police response and sparking a national conversation about online misinformation and social division. 

For the anniversary of the attack, The Daily T travels to the heart of the Merseyside town to hear how the community is remembering those affected by the horrific crime, and what’s changed in the year since the tragic event.

Camilla is on the ground in Southport speaking to locals and faith leaders, including a local Imam, about the impact the attack has had on their lives and how they have rebuilt after the events of that day.

And Camilla and Gordon Rayner speak to Ben Roberts-Haslam, senior reporter at the Liverpool Echo, who was at the scene in the immediate aftermath and has since worked closely with the victims’ families.

Southport Attack: One Year On

Donald Trump certainly didn’t hold back in his advice for Keir Starmer in Scotland today: cut taxes, slash illegal migration, and lose the wind turbines.

The men were expected to discuss the situation in Gaza and the US-UK trade deal after a lengthy press conference that became something of a one-man show. The Telegraph’s chief US correspondent Rob Crilly was there.

Meanwhile there is one story Trump can’t seem to shake, even with a trip across the Atlantic: the so-called Epstein files. Maga watcher Curt Mills tells The Daily T that the controversial decision to not release documents about the convicted paedophile could bring down the president.

Inside the room as Starmer Trumped at Turnberry

Today, the UK is set to introduce age verification checks on porn sites to stop under age people from accessing explicit content.

An Ofcom report showed 8 % of children aged 8–14 accessed porn in just one month, showing a desperate need for change. But will these measures actually work or do they risk pushing young people towards darker corners of the internet? 

For this special episode of The Daily T, Camilla talks through the new rules and the recommendations made by the Independent Pornography Review with Rebecca Goodwin, an adult film star, and Shaun Flores, a mental health advocate and educator who was addicted to porn.

We explore how easy it is for teenagers to access adult content, what impact it’s having on mental health and relationships, and whether new laws banning acts like strangulation in porn will make a difference. We also discuss porn performer and content creator Bonnie Blue, who has spoken about creating more extreme content to survive in a competitive market - and the uncomfortable questions this raises about what our young people are seeing about sex online.

‘I don’t want any child to watch my porn’: The OnlyFans star who’d rather lose money than have teen clicks

The British Medical Association has confirmed that a five-day resident doctors' strike will go ahead.

Medics will be striking due to a pay dispute with the government, with the organisation demanding a 29% pay rise - despite a 22% increase over the previous two years.

We speak to Professor Lord Robert Winston, who resigned from the BMA - an organisation he’s been a member of since 1964 - earlier this month, arguing that the strike action will damage the reputation of his profession. 

Keeping up the medical theme, Camilla also speaks to the chief nurse of Alder Hey Children's Hospital in Liverpool, with measles cases on the rise across the country amid an alarming decline in vaccination rates.

'Doctors have lost the plot' – Prof Robert Winston on resigning from the BMA over strikes

David Davis tells The Daily T he thinks “the balance of probabilities” is that the killer nurse is innocent, just as the health secretary says the public campaign to free her is “crass and insensitive”.

With an inquiry into her crimes due to begin this week, the veteran Tory MP is in the studio again to reveal his own conclusions about Letby’s case. We also hear from a Cambridge statistician who has raised concerns about the evidence used to convict the nurse of murdering seven babies.

Plus, is Labour brave enough to reform the NHS? Ahead of the publication of a damning report on the health service, Camilla and Gordon ask why the new government are overlooking one its biggest crises: social care.
