That Was The News That Was Dateline 5th July 2024

As usual three stories to look at, two are from across the water, the final one is the big one  of course is  the General Election.The first two stories involve the Supreme Court in the USA.As you may be aware Former President Donald Trump is facing several charges , both criminal and federal, he has stated several times that he can't be charged as he has total immunity as President.Now the Supreme Court has made a ruling saying that any act he makes in his role as President he does have immunity. This is worrying as there are the grey areas.The question is should a Premier of any  country have that sort of power e.g. If this had been around when Nixon was found guilty , he could not of been charged with Watergate. A few days ago the Supreme Court made another ruling, they gave local authorities the right to burn down the tent cities that had sprung up around cities. We in this country do have a habit of following ideas from other countries, what would you say if they started burning down homeless peoples tents?Finally today they announced the result of the General Election. Labour won which was not surprising but several Ministers lost their seats.I wanted three people to not get elected, Sue Ellen Braverman as she seems to make every statement sound like hate. Nigel Farage as he believes stopping the migrants is the cure for everything and Liz Truss as she is still spouting the same rubbish that almost destroyed the country. Well I only got one .The question is what does the future hold?On Monday, my guest is Nicola Tennant talking about "Runaways", young people under 17 who have ran from the care system. This is still happening today. Listen and share.Please share this , tell your friends they can join my mailing list.
