About this episode

The episode discusses Starmer's farewell, Andy Burnham's upcoming prime ministership, and recent events including a murder case and a sports defeat.

Starmer has said his formal goodbyes and is somewhere in Ukraine trying to remind the world and future employers that he has international reach and influence. Meanwhile, Andy Burnham prepares to take over the top job as prime minister on Monday. It seems he is doing this by stealth, with MPs not being able to take a good look at him in the Commons before the Summer recess. Jeremy also discusses Ann Widdecombe's murder and the crushing defeat England faced against Argentina last night. Joining Jeremy Kyle to discuss all this: Assistant comment editor at the Telegraph, Poppy Coburn, former government special advisor, James Price, Reform UK MP, Sarah Pochin, Reform UK's mayoral candidate for London, Laila Cunningham, co-founder of Survivors Against Terror, Brendan Cox, and TalkSPORT reported Max Scott.  Hosted on Acast.
