The Daily T

On today’s episode of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley sit down with investigative author Christopher Morris to discuss his new book, Reasonable Doubt: Examining the Case of Lucy Letby.

With questions continuing to mount regarding the integrity of the neonatal nurse’s 2023 conviction, Morris presents a forensic re-examination of one of the most controversial cases in modern Britain. Challenging the medical and statistical evidence presented at trial, he details the systemic failures at the Countess of Chester Hospital. These include chronic understaffing and poor clinical oversight that he argues were overlooked in favour of a “killer nurse” narrative.

The episode explores why independent experts are now calling for a dispassionate review, the risks of institutional “group think” and what this case reveals about the British legal system’s ability to handle complex, expert-driven medical testimony.

On Friday’s episode of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey sits down with John Bolton, the former US national security adviser, to examine the state of the UK-US “special relationship” following Andy Burnham’s sudden arrival as Prime Minister.

Mr Bolton discusses the US reaction to the appointment of Ed Miliband as Foreign Secretary, and predicts how the Prime Minister will navigate Donald Trump’s transactional foreign policy.

Camilla and Mr Bolton explore friction points ranging from lingering tensions over Middle East diplomacy to the Chagos Islands. They discuss the growing panic within the Republican Party before the upcoming US midterm elections, the looming threat of congressional investigations, and how the UK government should navigate a volatile, unscripted second Trump administration.

In today’s episode of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey, Victoria Ward, and India McTaggart look back on 13 years since the “Great Kate Wait” to mark Prince George’s milestone 13th birthday and his upcoming transition to Eton College.

With the second in line to the throne stepping into his teenage years, the team explores how the Prince and Princess of Wales are reshaping modern royal parenting. Grounded in a hands-on, “Middleton-esque” approach that prioritises immediate family over the traditional family firm, the Prince and Princess have intentionally minimised live-in staff and shielded their children from the public eye.

The episode examines the unique generational pressures facing George compared to previous heirs, how his quiet public demeanour contrasts with life behind closed doors, and why his preparation for the crown carries a far greater sense of immediacy than it did for his father.

On Wednesday’s episode of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley discuss the hot mic blunder in which Shabana Mahmood, the Home Secretary, and Wes Streeting, the Defence Secretary, were caught on camera joking about early prison releases.

The timing of the incident could not have been worse for Andy Burnham, the new Prime Minister, on day three of his premiership. Anger over the Cabinet members’ poorly placed joke also came within hours of The Telegraph’s report that two of Pc Andrew Harper’s killers were amongst the criminals set to be freed under Labour’s plans to tackle prison overcrowding.

As the new PM vows to review the early prisoner release policy, Camilla and Tim examine the fundamental flaws in Labour’s approach to justice.

They also discuss how Mr Burnham’s regime can better handle communications crises with Guto Harri, Downing Street’s former head of communications under Boris Johnson.
