General Election Half-time analysis: the seats and stats to know
It's halftime in the election campaign, but who looks like they'll make it to the last 16, and who is being unceremoniously sent home early?
Camilla Tominey and Kamal Ahmed are joined once again by resident Daily T stattos, Data Editor Ben Butcher and Political Correspondent Dom Penna to see how the polls have moved in the last few weeks and to highlight the new battlegrounds.
Plus Camilla and Kamal will discuss what a flock of very young Labour MPs will do to Westminster.
And our Senior Football Writer Thom Gibbs continues the slightly laboured connection between football and politics to answer the pressing question: who is the Nigel Farage of Euros 2024?

What’s the real cost of a Labour Government?
It’s manifesto day again! But this time with fewer racing puns and more toolmaker father references.
Camilla is joined by Kamal and Political Editor Ben Riley Smith reporting live from Labour’s big launch in Manchester. Sir Keir Starmer insists all of his plans have been ‘fully costed’ - so what’s the final bill?
We hear some of the highlights from the potential PM’s speech and Kamal asks Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer Rachel Reeves where the money will come from.
Plus, can Nigel Farage really unite the right?

Does it matter if our politicians are rich?
New research out today shows that British people's trust in politics has hit an all-time low. So why don't we trust our politicians?
Camilla and Kamal consider the reasons why, plus whether this dissatisfaction with politics might lead towards a change of voter system to proportional representation.
Plus, with the Greens launching their manifesto, they ask why climate change is so low down on the political agenda and also pose the question - does it matter if our politicians are rich?

Can Rishi's manifesto save the Tories?
Can the Tories overtake Labour despite their pole position? Or have the Conservatives spun off into the gravel? Those and other tortuous F1 metaphors can all be heard as we’re live at Silverstone for the Conservative manifesto launch.
We hear the highlights of Rishi Sunak’s speech - plus reaction from Michael Gove and Victoria Atkins - and Camilla and Kamal analyse all of the big policy pledges.
Elsewhere, we ask whether Labour’s gone “nanny state” mad on health with their energy drink ban, and spouses on the campaign trail - help or hindrance?

How many seats can the Lib Dems win?
It's the first manifesto launch of the general election campaign!
The Lib Dems are quickest out of the blocks with their policy pledges, so Camilla and Kamal bring you the highlights of Sir Ed Davey's speech and the reaction from inside the room with deputy leader Daisy Cooper. They're also joined in the studio by Political Correspondent Dom Penna to crunch the numbers on just how many seats the Lib Dems can win from the Tories.
Plus, Reform UK party and their plans for tax: can Nigel Farage put some substance behind the sound bites? And The Telegraph's Europe Editor James Crisp joins live from Brussels. He breaks down the significance of European election results and why French president Emmanuel Macron has decided to call a snap parliamentary election - is there something in the air?

Election debate special and Sunak’s D-Day blunder
In this late-night edition of The Daily T, Camilla and Kamal reflect on a disastrous D-Day blunder by Rishi Sunak and ask what the PM’s decision to leave commemorations early reveals about his political skill - or lack of it - and the weakness of his campaign team.
Plus, they unpack the BBC’s seven-way general election debate featuring tense exchanges between Penny Mordaunt, Angela Rayner, Nigel Farage and other party leaders on immigration, tax and the cost of living. Who came out top? And we hear reaction from Labour’s Lisa Nandy and Tory MP David Davis in the spin room.
