Leader of the Social Democratic Party William Clouston kicks off today's show to discuss the ongoing cost of living and energy crisis, and what the next PM needs to do in order to improve the state of the nation. Dr Laurence Gerlis joins shortly after to discuss how a new app is being created in order to minimise NHS waiting times - is this a waste of money when compared to the track and trace app? Former Detective Chief Inspector and author of a new report for the Policy Exchange David SPencer joins The Independent Republic for the first time to discuss Priti Patel's new demands for police to start getting back to basics and avoid the woke agenda. After a weekend of crime at Notting Hill carnival where 209 arrests were made, former Chief Exec of The Notting Hill carnival and criminal barrister Dr Claire Holder joins Mike to discuss what needs to be done in order to turn the now unmanageable carnival back into an orderly celebration, and Paris correspondent at the Times Adam Sage closes the show to discuss the 25th anniversary of Princess Diana's death, Adam recalls being one of the first reporters to respond to the scene. All that and so much more, so tune in!
