Poster boy Cambridge Professor resigns after his reported lies unravel

Julia Hartley-Brewer unpicks the astonishing downfall of Cambridge professor Jason Arday, whose reportedly fabricated claims — from a non-existent published book to implausible marathon feats — have triggered his resignation. Former Senior Military Intelligence Officer Philip Ingram MBE questions why universities fail basic vetting checks. Academic Kehinde Andrews then joins for a fiery clash over race, credentials and Cambridge's record on diversity. Plus: Kemi Badenoch's defence of a reformed neo-Nazi council candidate, FIFA's Gianni Infantino clinging to power, long-overdue justice for the officer who shot dead gangster Chris Kaba, and fury over grooming gang members among early prison releases.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.
