The Daily T

King Charles has spoken out in support of persecuted Christians around the world after attending a service at Westminster Abbey dedicated to those facing violence and discrimination for their faith. 

It comes amid renewed international focus on the treatment of Christians, after Donald Trump threatened action against Nigeria over killings, and comedian Bill Maher described the situation there as a “genocide”.

Tim Stanley is joined by Father Benedict Kiely who runs Nasarean.org, a charity that advocates on behalf of Christians and helps them to stay in their countries by funding start-ups. They talk about the Middle East, what is happening in Nigeria and the status of Christians today.

Christian persecution: Is the world ignoring a Christian genocide?

It’s the Government’s latest nanny state intervention. Teachers will now be charged with educating boys about misogyny amid concerns over the influence of self-described misogynist Andrew Tate.

But whose responsibility is it to police toxic masculinity, parents or teachers? Camilla and Rachel Johnson discuss the new policy and the associated issue of toxic femininity, as typified by the likes of porn star Bonnie Blue.

Plus, our EU-loving Prime Minister is splashing half a billion pounds on taking the UK back into the Erasmus scheme. Camilla says it’s overpriced and “abject nonsense”, while Rachel says it’s a boon for British soft power.

Why Labour’s anti-misogyny classes are doomed to fail

It’s a Rightie-off! Two heavyweights are in The Daily T studio to battle it out for the soul of British Right – and help you decide who to vote for.

Conservative chairman Kevin Hollinrake goes head to head with Tim Montgomerie, journalist and head of Reform’s Christian Fellowship, over their parties’ leaders, records in office, and solutions to Britain’s biggest problems.

The two heavyweights also weigh in on whether they would support a Tory-Reform coalition, and the answer might surprise you…

Who wins? Tories and Reform battle it out in fight for the Right

The US president is suing the BBC for a whopping $10bn, and Camilla and Tim are referred to in the lawsuit.

Donald Trump alleges he was defamed by Panorama and Newsnight’s misleading editing of his speech ahead of the Jan 6 2021 Capitol riot.

Former BBC legal eagle Joshua Rozenberg explains the merits of settling or fighting Trump’s suit to the bitter end.

Plus, resident doctors are going on strike just as the NHS faces a tidal wave of severe flu cases. We hear how the union has been captured by militant Leftists, and ask if medics should be banned from striking altogether.

How Trump could bankrupt the BBC

The Bondi Beach shooting in Sydney, where two gunmen killed at least 15 people, has been called the worst atrocity against Jews outside of Israel since Oct 7.

The harrowing event has sparked immediate political debate, with Tony Abbott, the former Australian prime minister, calling it a “day of shame” for the country. Chris Minns, the New South Wales premier, has announced a “comprehensive investigation” into the rise of antisemitism. 

Camilla and Tim are joined by Lord Wolfson to share his personal reaction to the attack as a Jewish man and its impact on his community as he says Jews like him have been warning about an attack like this for years.

Bondi Beach terror attack: A day of shame for the West

Michael Gove, Nicky Campbell and Andrew Pierce have all forged highly successful careers in journalism and broadcasting, with Gove serving many years in Government too.

But the men also share a very particular childhood experience: being adopted.

In this special episode, Camilla sits down with the the three journalists to understand how that fact has forged their lives and careers.

They explain feeling different from their peers growing up; finding their birth mothers (or choosing not to); and how wanting to prove to their parents that they were right to adopt them became “a driving force” for their careers in the public eye.

‘I wanted to be noticed’: Three famous adoptees on how it made them successful

Public anger over crime linked to asylum hotels is boiling over, with protests this summer from Essex to Scotland.

In light of the rape of a schoolgirl by two Afghan asylum seekers in Leamington Spa, Camilla and Tim ask what’s really driving this surge in migrant crime, and whether Britain’s broken asylum system is now fuelling a security crisis.

Plus, senior reporter Steve Bird has the inside story from the lawless migrant camps in Calais and Dunkirk: how ruthless people-smuggling gangs are coercing vulnerable female migrants into sexual exploitation, and recruiting others as drug mules.

Britain’s migrant crime scandal exposed

Kemi Badenoch has accused the Prime Minister of repeatedly bending the truth and called him a “caretaker Prime Minister”.

Camilla and Tim debunk some of the Government’s biggest porkies, explaining what the data really shows on the Chancellor's Budget, energy bills, teacher numbers, police recruitment and Brexit.

And we’re joined by George Abaraonye, the former Oxford Union president-elect who was removed from his post after he appeared to celebrate the shooting of US conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

The truth about Keir Starmer’s lies

Six million people is greater than the population of Norway. But that’s how many British people of working age are claiming benefits instead of working, so said Kemi Badenoch at a press conference this morning about how to “get Britain working”.

With more workless households than the population of Estonia (1.4m), and one in four people now self-reporting as disabled, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley ask how Britain became one big welfare state, explain why Labour’s workers rights bill isn’t going to help, and look at whether the Conservatives’ promise to review the whole work and welfare system will be enough.

How Britain stopped working under Labour

Reform’s Nigel Farage is having one of those weeks, with more headlines, more scrutiny, and yet more bad press.

Camilla and Tim unpack The Telegraph’s exclusive investigation into alleged election fraud with our associate political editor Tony Diver, after claims the Reform party overspent during the Clacton campaign.

And as Prince Harry secures a review of the decision to remove his automatic armed police protection, we explain the latest developments in his legal battle, the current “bespoke” security arrangements, and why renewed attention on Meghan Markle’s estranged father may be a sideshow to the real story.

Farage under attack

New research out today shows that British people's trust in politics has hit an all-time low. So why don't we trust our politicians?

Camilla and Kamal consider the reasons why, plus whether this dissatisfaction with politics might lead towards a change of voter system to proportional representation.

Plus, with the Greens launching their manifesto, they ask why climate change is so low down on the political agenda and also pose the question - does it matter if our politicians are rich?
