Summary

TalkTV's International Editor, Isabel Oakeshott will kick off today's show by discussing Keir Starmer's speech outlining Labour's five missions for government. We will also cover the latest developments in the Nicola Bulley case as investigations begin into the police's handling of the situation. As we mourn the passing of football legend John Motson at the age of 77, we will speak with TalkSport's Ally McCoist and Gary Newbon MBE, both of whom pay their respects and reflect on his illustrious career. Columnist for Spiked Online returns to the Independent Republic to react to Kier Starmers speech, in addition to her reaction on the return of Lady Hussey to Buckingham Palace after being forced out of Palace life after a race row with campaigner Ngozi Fulani. Former Adviser to Tony Blair John Mcternan gives his take on Starmers speech and Henry Bolton OBE closes the show to discuss the latest home office statistics on irregular migration as crossings increase by 60% since last year alone. All that and so much more, so tune in!
