    'Where's the substance?' Inside the room for Starmer's conference speech

    Keir Starmer struck a downbeat tone in his first conference speech since the election, promising to make "tough long-term decisions" to rebuild the country. Camilla and Kamal are live from Liverpool once again to pick apart the bones of the PM's speech, which saw him dismiss criticism of his unpopular policies as "water off a duck's back". They also get all of the latest conference gossip from political editor Ben Riley-Smith, who's spent the past few days hobnobbing with the great and the good from the government. Plus - can people on the streets of Liverpool correctly identify the Cabinet? And what do they think of the first few months under Labour? We had a wander around the city centre to find out...

    Donorgate, demos and downpours: Labour's lacklustre conference

    Camilla is in heaven: surrounded by Lefties, as Labour descends on Liverpool for its first annual conference since the election. But what should have been a jolly jamboree has been overshadowed by the cash-for-clothes scandal and a row over the winter fuel payment cut. Kamal and Camilla unpack Rachel Reeves speech - was it style over substance? - and speak to Jonathan Ashworth, the ousted Labour MP, about what the new government is getting wrong.

    "Guess who's back" - Farage and Reform emerge from the shadows

    Nigel Farage has given his speech at Reform's first conference since winning five MPs at the general election, and Robert Jenrick says English identity is 'under threat'. Kamal and Camilla review Nigel Farage's big speech at the Reform conference, their first since the election, with 4000 members at the NEC in Birmingham there to see him as he plots a course to become Prime Minister by 2029. They ask where Reform go from here and how they can grow from five MPs into a fighting force that Farage thinks can 'destroy' the Conservatives. Plus, Robert Jenrick has been on manoeuvres and delivered a Farage-esque newspaper article bemoaning what he sees as the loss of 'English identity', and former prime minister of Canada Stephen Harper has been speaking about what the British right can learn from the Canadians...

    Who's greedier - Keir Starmer or Sue Gray?

    The PM's chief of staff has taken a nice payrise that means she now earns more than her own boss, whilst Sir Freebies himself can't kick the habit as revelations of more gifts emerge. A BBC story that Sue Gray, Keir Starmer's chief of staff, asked for and was given a salary of £170,000 - £3,000 more than the PM - has Westminster in a gossip frenzy, with leaks, power struggles and disgruntled advisers dominating the headlines.  It all comes as Sir Keir Starmer is under fresh scrutiny for accepting more hospitality from donor Lord Alli - with the Telegraph revealing that Starmer used his £18m penthouse on multiple occasions. So Kamal and Camilla simply ask - what on earth is going on at the top of government, and how has it all unravelled so quickly?

    How sick note Britain is trashing our economy

    And Ed Davey attacks the Conservatives in his conference speech, but shouldn't he have really gone after Labour - the party actually in power? 4.3 million people could be out of work due to ill health by the end of this Parliament, ushering in an era of “disease and bankruptcy” for Britain, according to a new report from The Institute for Public Policy Research. Camilla and Kamal look at the report’s recommendations, including higher taxes on unhealthy foods, and ask if more nanny statism will really drag the country out of a health crisis. And Ed Davey has given his big speech at the Lib Dem conference, and used it largely to take aim at fourteen years of Conservative rule rather than holding Labour's feet to the fire. He has ambitions of being the official Opposition, so why did he focus on the Tories? Camilla senses a left wing stitch-up...

    Is Keir Starmer the greediest prime minister in history?

    And as disgraced BBC presenter Huw Edwards is spared a custodial sentence today - what does it say about our justice system that he isn't in prison? The PM is known to be keen on a freebie - whether it's Arsenal tickets or expensive specs. Having accepted over £50,000 in donations in the last year alone from Labour peer Lord Alli, including clothes for his wife which he failed to properly declare, could 'Mr Rules' actually be the greediest PM ever? Plus, with Sir Freebies in Rome chatting to Italian PM Giorgia Meloni about immigration, we ask a former head of the UK Border Force why Europe is having more success dealing with small boats.
