    'She’s harming poor children': Britain’s strictest headteacher backs Badenoch’s attack on Phillipson

    In today’s episode of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley speak to Katherine Birbalsingh – dubbed Britain’s strictest headteacher for her work at Michaela Community School in north-west London – about the row that has broken out between Bridget Phillipson and Kemi Badenoch following the Conservative leader’s fiery attack on the Education Secretary. Ms Birbalsingh agrees with Ms Badenoch that Ms Phillipson is a “class warrior” and believes that while her intentions come from a “good place”, her policies will actually have a negative effect and harm poor school pupils. Elsewhere, Camilla and Allister Heath discuss the latest developments over the Labour leadership and why Andy Burnham, the lead contender to replace Sir Keir Starmer, might betray Brexit if he wins the keys to No 10.

    PMQs bloodbath as Kemi skewers Starmer, Reeves and Burnham

    In his first PMQs since announcing his resignation, Keir Starmer faced a fiery attack from Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch, attacking many of his cabinet members.  Camilla and Tim react to the action in parliament and discuss the “coronation” of Andy Burnham, examining the mounting evidence against his leadership - from his resurfaced controversial videos to his shifting stance on calling a general election.  Plus, former Defence Secretary Ben Wallace joins the podcast to dissect the state of Britain’s military, the failures of the defence investment plan, and whether Burnham has the conviction to restore Britain’s standing on the world stage.
