Reform up, Tories down: Can Kemi survive the Brexit reset nightmare?

from The Daily T

Twenty-four hours after Keir Starmer announced a shift on fishing rights and closer alignment with the EU, the backlash has been fierce. Reform are already expecting to take seats from Labour in the next General Election thanks to the Brexit “reset” deal, with deputy leader Richard Tice accusing Starmer of having “surrendered the fishing industry” to the EU.On today’s episode, Camilla and Kamal unpack the fallout from the Prime Minister’s big “reset” and discuss the key moments from both his statement in Parliament and leader of the opposition Kemi Badenoch’s fiery response as the Tories slip to fourth place behind Labour, Reform and the Lib Dems in a major poll. And it was one of Britain’s biggest medical scandals. Thousands were infected with HIV and hepatitis through contaminated blood products in the 70s and 80s, including children at a specialist school called Treloar’s. Camilla speaks to Richard Warwick, a survivor, and journalist and author Cara McGoogan ahead of a new ITV documentary on the scandal and why survivors still haven’t had their compensation.Producers: Georgia CoanSenior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineyExecutive Producer: Louisa WellsSocial Media Producer: Ji-Min LeeVideo Editor: Valerie Browne Studio Operator: Meghan SearleEditor: Camilla TomineyOriginal music by Goss Studio Hosted on Acast.
