  • A special episode after 1000 days of war.


    It’s been a turbulent week for Ukraine, which was finally given approval to use US and UK-supplied long range missiles but also faced intensified Russian attacks.


    As the third anniversary of Russia’s full scale invasion approaches, Tim and Kamal ask what the coming months could hold for the conflict. Will Trump’s White House force Kyiv to cede territory? Will Zelensky stand down? And what’s the role of China in all this?


    They’re joined by Ukraine: The Latest host Francis Dearnley and the Telegraph’s executive foreign and defence editor Con Couglin.

  • Why the death of the former deputy prime minister matters more to Labour now than they realise


    One of the key figures of the New Labour government John Prescott, died this morning aged 86. Kamal and Tim Stanley reflect on their encounters with the former Deputy Prime Minister, and why Keir Starmer's government could do with a 'Prescott' figure that can connect with parts of the Labour party and the wider electorate others can't.


    Plus, former Conservative Party leader Iain Duncan Smith is in the studio after he grilled Keir Starmer on his meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping. He criticises the government for its 'appeasement' of Beijing and warns that a defeated Ukraine would 'embolden' China.

  • Labour tell big tech firms to get a grip on harmful online content, or they could ban platforms for children altogether...


    On the front page of today’s Telegraph, Peter Kyle has told Ofcom - the communications regulator - that it needs to apply far more pressure on social media firms and tech giants in order to protect children online. If it doesn’t, the government will consider a social media ban for under 16s.


    Kamal and Gordon Rayner speak to the campaign group Smartphone Free Childhood who want to see more done to bring children off phones.


    Plus, it’s not just the farmers! Kamal and Gordon meet the fifth generation funeral director who’s fearful for the future after Rachel Reeves made similarly huge changes to inheritance tax for businesses.

  • Tim sat down with the controversial Canadian psychologist.


    Jordan Peterson, best known for the self-help book 12 Rules for Life, has become a guru to many young men on the political right for wading into contested debates around gender and free speech.


    Now he wants to introduce his audience of millions to religion, with a new book that argues the Bible is the ideal foundation for modern society.


    Tim joins Kamal to reflect on his wide-ranging interview with the psychologist and conservative commentator, why he’s so popular and what - if anything - we can learn from him.

  • The police are investigating The Telegraph's Allison Pearson for a social media post despite everyday crime going largely unsolved.


    Essex Police chose the morning of Remembrance Sunday to visit our Telegraph colleague Allison Pearson and inform her they were investigating a year-old social media post under Section 17 of the Public Order Act 1986 relating to material “likely or intended to cause racial hatred”.


    Kamal and Tim Stanley ask why our police forces seem perfectly capable of following up on remarks made in an online environment, whilst everyday crimes like burglaries and sexual offences go largely unsolved.


    And what next for the beaten up Democrats in the US? They ask Governor Phil Murphy from New Jersey how his party lost so badly and what they do next.

  • Justin Welby is facing growing calls to resign after a report found the Church of England covered up “abhorrent” abuse.


    The review said Archbishop Welby “could and should” have reported the case to authorities when details of the abuse of more than 100 boys and young men at the hands of serial predator John Smyth were presented to him in 2013. Archbishop Welby admitted he had “personally failed to ensure” it was investigated, but that he had “no idea or suspicion of this abuse” before 2013.


    Kamal and Gordon Rayner are joined by The Telegraph’s Religious and Social Affairs Editor Janet Eastham to talk through what Welby did and didn’t know and whether his position is tenable.


    Plus, as farmers prepare for a mass rally in London against the rise in inheritance tax, Kamal and Gordon speak to one of the organisers who says that Labour have “picked a fight with the wrong people”.

  • The idea that Kamala Harris is ahead in Republican stronghold Iowa has America reeling - but how much can we read into it?


    With just twenty-four hours to go until polling day, America has been sent into a frenzy with a shock poll from the Republican-held state of Iowa that puts Kamala Harris 3% ahead of Donald Trump. It wasn’t a state that was even in the conversation before, so does it mean Trump’s campaign is suffering subsidence? And can it be replicated elsewhere?


    Kamal is in the studio in London and Camilla is in Washington to digest another wild weekend in the US election, and get the expert opinion on the Iowa poll from our Head of Data Ben Butcher.


    Plus, Telegraph columnist and Daily T presenter Tim Stanley explains why he believes Donald Trump isn’t the monster the left portrays him as.
