Summary
#Starmer #Labour #UKPolitics #MigrationCrisis #Asylum #JonGaunt #LiveShow #deport
Britain is facing a political and social crisis — from the asylum and immigration system to pressure on housing and public services.
The Home Secretary's latest speech has ignited a fierce backlash, with Labour MPs describing parts of the Government's approach as "cruel" and "inhumane".
A rebellion is now openly brewing inside the party. And yet… where is the Prime Minister? In tonight's live show, we ask the questions millions are wondering:
🔹 Why has Keir Starmer remained largely silent during one of the biggest political storms of his leadership?
🔹 Why was he not front-and-centre in Parliament during this crucial moment?
🔹 Why hasn't he publicly responded to his own Home Secretary's plans?
🔹 Is this strategic silence — or a failure of leadership?
🔹 And how is this affecting his personal poll ratings? Is he finished?
Meanwhile, public concern over illegal immigration, migrant accommodation, community tensions, housing shortages and pressure on services continues to rise. Leadership is needed — but is the country getting it? Join the live discussion, have your say in the chat, and let's break down what's really happening behind the scenes.

| 0:00.0 | Hi, good evening, welcome to the John Gaunt show, a bit earlier than normal, but my big question tonight is, why isn't Stama leading? |
| 0:12.9 | Where the hell is Kea Stama? |
| 0:17.1 | If you want to comment, put it in the box. I want to know why is he hiding again. |
| 0:22.1 | And I want to know what you made of yesterday. |
| 0:25.0 | We've got the Labour Party now in open revolt. |

| 0:31.5 | Britain is facing a political and social crisis. |
| 0:36.2 | From the asylum and immigration system to obviously all the other |
| 0:40.3 | pressures, housing, public services, the crap budget that's coming next week. And the Home Secretary's |
| 0:48.3 | speech yesterday, what did you make of that? It's ignited. |
| 0:54.9 | An absolute backlash. |
| 0:57.6 | Not in the whole of the Commons. |
| 0:59.5 | People like, |
| 1:00.9 | Emmy Balinok is supporting her. |
| 1:03.7 | The opposition's supporting her. |
| 1:05.3 | But the Labour backbenchers, |
| 1:07.8 | 23 of them, are in open revolt, saying things like, oh, this is what the Nazis |
| 1:13.8 | would do. This is not Labour going on about the fact that they might take jury off people |
| 1:21.6 | coming in. It's so obvious that as Farage has said today, that bit won't actually happen. |
| 1:27.5 | What she was trying to get at was that why should people come into our country |
| 1:32.0 | if they've got assets? |
