NHS maternity betrayal – is our health system fit for purpose? Plus: Trump describes Burnham as ‘extremely liberal’

from The Julia Hartley-Brewer Show

Britain's maternity scandal has been exposed in a fulsome report — revealing criminal negligence dressed up in bureaucratic incompetence. Hundreds of mothers and babies died or were left seriously injured at Nottingham University NHS Trust over 13 years, while it seems managers prioritised self-protection over saving lives. Julia Hartley-Brewer and former senior military intelligence officer Philip Ingram MBE tear into a toxic culture of cover-ups, box-ticking, and wasted six-figure salaries — while babies died. Former Sun political editor Trevor Kavanagh joins to ask why nobody ever seems to get sacked for these major failings. Meanwhile, Donald Trump has dismissed Andy Burnham as the mayor of a small town who is "extremely liberal" — sharing no warm wishes for the new PM tasked with turning the country round. With no Chancellor chosen, no policies confirmed, and his authority already crumbling, Burnham's leadership faces HUGE headwinds before it's even taken off.Plus: Kemi Badenoch's savage PMQs demolition of the Starmer government, heatwave hysteria, and homeowners being forced to rip out their air conditioning.Julia Hartley-Brewer broadcasts on Talk from Monday to Thursday, 10AM to 1PM. Available on YouTube and streaming platforms, along with DAB+ radio and your smart speaker. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
