Mandelson and The Green Party - the disastrous left

Joe Twyman (Founder of DeltaPoll) and Tatton Spiller (Founder of Simple Politics) join the show as Westminster faces a mounting political storm around Sir Keir Starmer and the fallout from the Peter Mandelson row. With reports warning of a potential constitutional showdown over the handling of sensitive files linked to the Epstein case, we ask whether this could become the biggest test of Starmer’s leadership yet.

Plus, former Home Office Minister Norman Baker reacts to fresh controversy over immigration after proposals linked to Green Party leadership hopeful Zack Polanski sparked outrage, including claims illegal migrants could be granted amnesty, housing and financial support. It comes as new reports suggest French authorities are failing to stop a large share of small boats crossing the Channel, fuelling renewed criticism of the UK–France migration deal.
