  • Amid all the noise made by Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch, Nigel Farage and Elon Musk in recent days about the grooming gang scandal, the voices that have struggled to be heard the most are those belonging to the survivors of this appalling abuse.


    On today’s Daily T, Camilla has interviewed Gaia Cooper, who survived being criminally exploited and repeatedly raped by a grooming gang when she was just 14, and has since written a book about her horrific experiences called ‘Modern Slave’.


    Gaia talks about why she thinks figures like Elon Musk and Tommy Robinson are being disingenuous and why Prime Minister Keir Starmer needs to launch a national inquiry.

  • Having said a national inquiry into the grooming scandal was off the table, today the government looks to be signalling a possible U-turn. Meanwhile Kemi Badenoch ramped up the pressure on Keir Starmer at PMQs. Camilla and Kamal assess her performance.


    Plus, the world is preparing for a second Trump presidency. Facebook and Instagram’s parent company has announced it will end third-party fact-checking as Mark Zuckerberg cosies up to the president-elect. And as Trump sets his sights on Greenland, we get the local reaction.

  • And lessons from Canada's Conservatives


    The Tory leader has been oddly quiet since the New Year, despite a heated public row between Keir Starmer, Nigel Farage and Elon Musk over grooming gangs. Shadow justice minister Robert Jenrick was on the broadcast round instead this morning, throwing out red meat about immigration and “alien cultures”. Kamal and Camilla ask: should Badenoch be clearer about what she stands for?


    Plus, they consider what the Tories could learn from the collapse of Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government and the rise of the Canadian Conservatives under Pierre Poliviere.

  • Tommy Robinson has caused a rift on the right


    It feels like just yesterday the X owner and the Reform leader were pictured together at Mar-a-Lago. Now Elon Musk has publicly attacked Nigel Farage, saying he ‘doesn’t have what it takes’ to lead the party and should be replaced.


    The men are split over Tommy Robinson, real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon. Currently in prison for contempt of court, the far-Right activist has received Musk’s backing, while Farage has distanced himself from the EDL founder.


    Their public spat began after the resurfacing of the child grooming scandal, as it was revealed a Labour minister declined to lead an inquiry in Oldham. We also ask: would a new inquiry help the victims get justice?

  • Described as a child’s rejection of one parent because they have been manipulated by the other, parental alienation can see parents separated from their children for many years. That’s the case for the two alienated mothers who shared their heartbreaking stories with The Daily T.


    Parental alienation currently has no legal definition and is a contested subject - often cropping up alongside accusations of domestic abuse - but can have devastating consequences. With allegations of parental alienation on the rise in the courts, we also hear from a leading family court lawyer about how judges should respond.

  • Today we’re handing The Daily T over to The Telegraph’s legendary interviewer, Mick Brown.


    In the course of a long career in journalism Mick Brown has interviewed many of the most significant cultural figures of the past 50 years - and he kept the tapes. In the first of an occasional series he delves into his archive to bring you interviews with Stephen Sondheim, David Bowie, and many more.


    This episode covers one of the most far-reaching and candid interviews of his career, recorded over two days in New York, in 1996. David Bowie talked with Mick Brown about his shape-shifting career, his artistic and spiritual influences, his years of drug abuse and hedonism, along with making some of the greatest rock albums of the 20th century, and finding peace and contentment with his marriage to Iman.

  • It’s New Year’s Eve and what a year it has been for news. On this episode of The Daily T, we’re joined by two special guests in the studio to help us look back at the biggest stories of the year - from the rise of Farage and Trump to the farmers' protests and banning mobile phones. 


    Telegraph readers Mary-Grace and Adam talk about generational differences, the biggest political voices of the year, and who (dead or alive) they’d share a cup of tea with. And we’ll be hearing from you - our listeners - on the news stories that got you talking in 2024.

  • Sketch writer Tim Stanley and political correspondent Dominic Penna take The Daily T into the heart of Parliament for a special look back at the tumultuous year that was 2024.


    From the dramatic decline of the Conservatives to the damp squib that has been Labour in power to the unstoppable rise of Reform, British politics has changed forever. Tim and Dom give their view from inside Westminster on how Kemi, Keir and Nige have fared and what might happen in 2025. 


    Plus they pull back the curtain on what Lobby journalism involved and what it’s like covering an election from a battle bus.

  • When billionaire British entrepeneur Mike Lynch drowned during the sinking of the superyacht Bayesian in August, it sent shockwaves around the world.


    Having just successfully fought off the US Justice Department on fourteen counts of fraud and conspiracy, he was celebrating his newfound freedom when he was tragically killed during a freak storm.


    After months of work by our senior reporter, Henry Bodkin, the Daily T investigates what might have caused a boat that was previously described as unsinkable to vanish beneath the waves.

    In the course of a long career in journalism Mick Brown has interviewed many of the most significant cultural figures of the past 50 years - and he kept the tapes. In the first of an occasional series he delves into his archive to bring you interviews with Stephen Sondheim, David Bowie, and many more.


    In this first episode he remembers meeting the man who reinvented the musical Stephen Sondheim in New York in 2010. In this conversation they discussed his long and storied career, his tempestuous upbringing, his tutelage under the beady eye of Oscar Hammerstein, what makes a musical great. In moments of rare candour, Sondheim also spoke of his time in therapy, his anxieties about ageing - and did his best to skirt the subject of love...

  • t was front-page news when earlier this year, rapper and businessman Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs was arrested after facing a wave of civil lawsuits related to allegations including sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy and rape.


    Then earlier this month, an amended lawsuit filed in a federal court in New York alleged that fellow rap star Jay-Z had raped a 13-year-old girl with Combs during a party in 2000, an allegation Jay-Z has denied, calling it a “blackmail attempt” by the lawyer who is behind it all.


    Tony Buzbee is representing those accusing them - a multi-millionnaire lawyer who lives in one of the most expensive houses in Houston, Texas. The Telegraph's Mick Brown has traveled to the US to interview him and joins Kamal to tell us what it was like to meet the man behind a media storm.

  • Gisèle Pelicot’s courage, resilience and fortitude in publically proving a decade of rape and sexual abuse at the hands of her husband and fifty other men has transformed her from septuagenarian grandmother to French national hero.


    Dominique Pelicot will go down as one of the worst sex offenders in modern French history, having been sentenced to 20 years in prison for drugging Gisèle and inviting dozens of men to rape her in her home in the south of France.


    Kamal and Camilla speak to The Telegraph's Paris correspondent Henry Samuel from the courthouse in Avignon, Provence, where he has been following the trial and its conclusion.


    Elsewhere, they speak to The Telegraph's Lucy Foster, who is spearheading our Christmas Charity Appeal, about the final of the four nominated charities this year - the Teenage Cancer Trust.

  • It is surely an image for the history books. Nigel Farage stood next to two billionaires, one of them Elon Musk, at Donald Trump’s Florida estate. The X owner is reported to be considering donating as much as $100 million to Reform UK.


    Is this foreign interference in our politics? And what would a history-making donation to Farage’s party mean for Labour and the Tories?


    Plus, political editor Ben Riley-Smith has been speaking to Keir Starmer about Russia and tax - on board a frigate in Estonia, no less.


    We also hear from veteran broadcaster Alastair Stewart about living with dementia and his work with Alzheimer’s Research UK.

  • New figures show that not only has the economy contracted, but job hiring is at a record low.


    Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves strode into Downing Street on July 5th talking about just one thing - growth. But since then the government has raised employers’ national insurance contributions, slapped taxes on farmers, slashed winter fuel allowance and now worse news still - the economy officially shrunk in October and the number of job vacancies is at a record low. So, is Rachel Reeves the worst chancellor in history?


    Plus, we’ll hear from a veteran who lost both his legs and his right arm in Afghanistan and how the Army Benevolent Fund - another of the charities the Telegraph is supporting this Christmas - changed his life.

  • A Chinese businessman and alleged spy has now been identified as Yang Tengbo after a court order protecting his identity was lifted.


    He was banned from the UK last week amid claims he had formed an "unusual degree of trust" with the Duke of York - Prince Andrew. Judges were told the businessman was attempting to leverage the disgraced Prince's influence. Former Conservative leader Sir Iain Duncan Smith joins us in The Daily T studio to explain why the alleged spy could be one of many such Chinese agents operating "in plain view" .


    And could fresh evidence from the legal team for former neonatal nurse Lucy Letby prove her innocence?


    This week we will be highlighting the work done by the four charities The Telegraph is supporting in our Christmas appeal. In today's episode, we'll be looking at Humanity and Inclusion, a global charity working alongside disabled and vulnerable people in 60 countries affected by poverty, conflict and disaster.


    You can read more about the work done by Humanity and Inclusion, as well as Adelie Pojzman-Pontay and Francis Dearnley's reporting from Kharkiv, on The Telegraph’s website. Other charities we are supporting include: Alzheimer’s Research UK, Teenage Cancer Trust and Army Benevolent Fund. To donate to any of them, please visit telegraph.co.uk/2024appeal or call 0151 317 5247.

  • And the latest Saudi sportswashing as they get the 2034 World Cup


    Labour has unveiled the biggest changes to - and liberalisation of - planning laws in a generation to help deliver on its promise of 1.5 million new homes this parliament.


    With the Tories worrying that concerns of local people will be “completely swept aside”, Camilla and Kamal speak to shadow housing secretary Kevin Hollinrake who also claims the “majority” of the 1.5 million new homes will be for immigrants. 


    Plus, Saudi Arabia has won an uncontested bid to host the 2034 World Cup, so we speak to chief sports writer Oliver Brown about FIFA's "grotesque" decision - the latest in a long line of Saudi attempts at 'sportswashing'.
