Three and a half years in to Moscow’s war in Ukraine, the Russian and American presidents are set to meet in Alaska - possibly to decide its outcome over the heads of European leaders.

Having long insisted that Kyiv would not cede any territory to Russia, Ukraine’s President Zelensky could now be softening on that position.

Tim and Gordon are joined by Ukraine: The Latest hosts Dom Nicholls and Francis Dearnley to understand how this historic summit could play out.

Plus, we read Nicola Sturgeon’s memoir so you don’t have to. The Telegraph’s best-known Scot Alan Cochrane reviews her political record.

Are Trump and Putin about to carve up Europe?

Labour have admitted to failing white, working-class children in Britain. 

Writing in today’s Daily Telegraph, Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson says it’s a “national disgrace” that so many pupils are being left behind, pointing to an alarming rise in school absence whilst all-important attainment figures go the other way. 

Having inherited a strong schools system from the Conservatives, Gordon Rayner is joined by former Tory education minister, Sir Nick Gibb, to try and understand what’s gone wrong. Gibb believes Labour “didn’t do the work in opposition to try and understand how to improve” and that they’ve been “listening to the teacher unions too closely”.

Plus, Tim Stanley and Cleo Watson speak to Lawrence Newport - the co-founder of Looking for Growth, a campaign group that wants to kick-start our flailing economy. Newport, who made his start in political campaigning by getting XL bully dogs banned, says our politics is fundamentally broken, too slow and too ineffective - echoing one of his group’s backers, Dominic Cummings.

Why Labour’s two-tier education system is failing working class pupils

He’s worked for some of the most controversial people to enter the dock: OJ Simpson, Harvey Weinstein, Julian Assange.

Leading American defence lawyer Alan Dershowitz also represented Jeffrey Epstein, the disgraced financier and convicted paedophile who has been causing trouble for President Donald Trump from beyond the grave.

Dershowitz speaks to Tim Stanley about Epstein’s relationship with Trump and Bill Clinton; what’s really in those files; and the kind of deal Ghislaine Maxwell could do with the Justice Department.

The Telegraph has also spoken to Epstein’s former butler, who makes a new set of bombshell allegations about the late financier and his ties to Trump. We put those claims to Dershowitz.

Epstein's former lawyer: Information has been suppressed, Trump should release the files

Andrew Lownie – bestselling royal historian and author of acclaimed biographies on Lord Mountbatten, Edward VIII and Guy Burgess – joins Tim and Cleo in The Daily T studio to discuss his explosive new book Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York. 

In this revealing joint biography of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, Lownie explores the Duke and Duchess of York’s controversial lives - from their relationship and divorce, to Prince Andrew’s Falklands service, business ties, and infamous links to Jeffrey Epstein.

Based on four years of investigative research, over 100 exclusive interviews, and multiple FOI requests, Entitled uncovers new details from palace insiders, former staff, diplomats, charity workers, and journalists silenced from reporting on the Yorks – offering an unprecedented portrait of a royal couple at the centre of scandal.

Prince Andrew's biographer on Fergie, Epstein, and the Yorks' 'huge PR machine'

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.

Kamal and Camilla give their verdict on the Tory leadership race result. Plus, who is to blame for Grenfell, and will anyone actually end up in the dock? 

Robert Mendick joins The Daily T again to discuss the Grenfell Inquiry’s final report and whether it gives the answers the survivors and bereaved have been waiting for. 

Don’t miss our deep dive episode on the deadly fire, including first-hand accounts of that night and why the inquiry is seen as a failure by many.
