He was elected in 2024 promising to end the war between Russia and Ukraine within 24 hours, and less than six months ago halted the flow of military aid to Kyiv after giving President Zelensky a dressing down in the Oval Office. But Donald Trump now seems to have changed his tune on Ukraine.The President has announced that the US will resume the supply of weapons, via Nato, and also threatened 100pc tariffs on Russia if a deal isn't done. He also later told the BBC that he was "disappointed" in Putin.Camilla and Tim speak to former economic advisor to Donald Trump, Carla Sands, who blames "weak and flabby militaries throughout Europe" and a "feckless" Joe Biden for the current situation in Ukraine, and believes Trump will get a deal despite Putin not being an "honest broker".Elsewhere, Camilla and Tim speak to Conservative MP James Cleverly, who was making a speech in Central London about countering the rise of Reform, and ask him if he's on manoeuvres for a leadership run.Producesr: Lilian Fawcett & Georgia CoanSenior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineyVideo Editor: Will WaltersStudio Operator: Meghan Searle Hosted on Acast.

After Gregg Wallace and the Gaza doc - is it time to defund the BBC?
Two utterly damning reports into the BBC landed within a matter of hours of each today, calling into question the future of the director-general Tim Davie and indeed the corporation itself.Firstly, the failure to handle the behaviour of Gregg Wallace was laid bare in an internal review that saw the BBC admit that it could have done more to stop the Masterchef presenter.And then it went from bad to worse after a separate review into the controversial documentary Gaza: How to Survive a War Zone confirmed that it had breached editorial guidelines on accuracy, having failed to disclose that the narrator was the son of a Hamas official.Camilla and Tim speak to former culture secretary Sir John Whittingdale, who believes that Tim Davie “must be considering his position” and that “the funding of the BBC is rapidly reaching the point where we have to look at alternatives”.Producesr: Lilian Fawcett & Georgia CoanSenior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineyVideo Editor: Will WaltersStudio Operator: Meghan Searle Hosted on Acast.

‘It’s outrageous!’: Nigel Farage on Starmer’s ‘crazy’ migrant deal with Macron
Hundreds of migrants have crossed the Channel this morning, far outnumbering the handful who could be returned to France under Sir Keir Starmer’s new “one in, one out” migrant deal with Emmanuel Macron. As the French president arrived at No 10 for last-minute talks, The Telegraph watched boats packed with young men leaving Gravelines beach at dawn while French police stood by. Later, 74 men, a woman and three children were handed over to Border Force by the French Navy, who even asked for the migrants’ life jackets back.Critics warn that returning around 50 migrants a week will do little to reduce crossings, raising questions over Labour’s Channel crisis strategy. Camilla and Gordon are joined by Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp to discuss why the deal is a disaster for Britain and how Starmer has lost control of the border. Meanwhile, Reform UK is shaking up Westminster again. Nigel Farage was heckled at PMQs while raising concerns about illegal migration and ex-Tory MP Jake Berry has become the latest to defect to Reform. Our political correspondent Dom Penna joins us after speaking with Reform MP Lee Anderson on what the party’s rise means for the Conservatives.Producer: Georgia CoanSenior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineyVideo Editor: Will WaltersStudio Operator: Meghan Searle Hosted on Acast.
