Hello and welcome to the Week in 60 Minutes, brought to you by Spectator TV and broadcast on the 12th July.

I'm James Heel, the Spectators Politics Cor Correspondent and your post for this week's episode.

Coming up on the show,

Can the Conservatives really stop the boats via the illegal migration bill?

As MPs and Lords fight over the flagship piece of legislation,

I'll be speaking the two side of the argument, Tom Hunt MP and Tim Farron for the Lib devs.

Will AI be the death of us all?

That's what Eliza Yukowski believes.

Former number 10 advisor, James Phillips, interviewed him for the magazine this week.

We'll show a clip of the discussion on the show.

The spectator's political editor, Katie Balls,

takes a look at Labour's relationship with the trade unions in this week's column.

Can Kirstama win over the likes of Mick Lynch

and others? Katie and Stephen Bush join me on the show. For the coverpiece this week,

author and contributor Louise Perry looks at Britain's dangerous addiction to plastic surgery and how

much social media is driving the trend. I was speaking to her later. Finally, Britons do love to gossip,

and no more so when it's about a public

figure like Philip Schofield or George Osborne. Historian Alice Lockstone has written about the

history of gossip in Britain and why we love it so much. She joins me on the show. Before we get
