    Resilience & Protests

    Jeremy Kyle reacts as the Home Secretary has instructed police forces to deploy all available powers necessary to crack down on anti-migrant demonstrations. Shabana Mahmood has also called for a blanket ban on masks at public protests to unmask extremists. Whenever did we hear the Home Secretary say ‘use all powers necessary’ on pro-palestinian protests? Across the Channel, France wants Britain to accept asylum seekers directly from across the European Union as part of the one in, one out scheme.   But back here local communities are increasingly worried about asylum seekers in their area. In the village of Piddington, local women have issued an urgent plea to female MPs, fearing they will be vastly outnumbered ten-to-one by male asylum seekers. And just to give you an idea of how bad the situation is - official data reveals the UK asylum appeals backlog has skyrocketed to a historic record exceeding 90,000 cases - a seventeenfold jump over six years ago. Meanwhile, a Labour review says make disability benefits as 'easy as possible' to get as new figures show the number of claimants receiving benefits for ADHD has surpassed the total number of serving soldiers in the British military. Remember what the PM said on Wednesday: ‘National security cannot come at the expense of social security'. Wes Streeting says: We need a national conversation about preparedness and resilience.  Fury as PM approves ‘tourist tax’ which could hike price of UK holidays by £100s despite vow to help with cost of living Wake up with Talk Breakfast in full on YouTube, DAB+ radio, Samsung TV Plus or the Talk App on your TV from 6am every morning.

    The 'Welfare' Party

    Jeremy Kyle explores Labour being branded the 'Welfare Party' on Wednesday after Andy Burnham said he would never prioritise defence spending over benefits. In an extraordinary intervention, the Prime Minister said he was serious about national security, but it 'cannot come at the expense of social security'. Kemi Badenoch said Mr Burnham had 'said the quiet part out loud', adding: 'For our new PM, social security – welfare – comes above national security. Do you believe Labour will ever cut the benefits bill?  Pensioner Benefits: £177.7 billion (around 55% of the total expenditure), which includes £146.1 billion for the State Pension.Working-Age and Children Welfare: £145.0 billion, including Universal Credit and non-DWP welfare.Disability and Health Support: £77.1 billion for people with health conditions and disabilities.Housing Benefits: £37.3 billion President Trump makes a major promise at the Republican midterm convention in Dallas: $5,000 for every adult U.S. citizen if Republicans win both the House and Senate in the midterms.  A spokesperson for the Israeli Government calls Ed Miliband a 'failed figure' and a 'joke' who 'made Britain irrelevant', in response to the West Bank sanctions row. We also learn that Ministers ‘ignored official advice’ on Israeli settlements trade ban. Benjamin Netanyahu says Labour restricted trade with Israel to protect Starmer’s seat. Meanwhile, Labour picks a Somali refugee in Starmer’s old seat.  Wake up with Talk Breakfast in full on YouTube, DAB+ radio, Samsung TV Plus or the Talk App on your TV from 6am every morning.

    Miliband Has Put 'British Jews In Danger'

    Jeremy Kyle unpacks The Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband’s announcement sanctions on illegal Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank, accusing Israel's government of turning a blind eye to the "ethnic cleansing" of Palestinians by settlers. Israel furiously hit back - Israel's Foreign Minister Gideon Saar responded by accusing him of spreading an "outrageous lie"and closed the UK consulate, banned a dozen MPs and booted out Britain's military from joint operations.  The sanctions were launched alongside France and Canada will prohibit the import of settlement-produced goods, bar companies from providing expansion services, and ban the advertising of settlement properties within the UK. But Ed Miliband has been accused of putting Jews in the UK in danger: The Chief Rabbi Sir Ephraim Mirvis said this is a 'truly a dark day for British Jews' just days before Jewish New Year celebrations and accused Labour of  'gesture politics'. Kemi Badenoch joined the condemnation, saying that Andy Burnham risked 'fanning the flames of anti-Semitism at home'  Labour’s Advisor on the unemployed Alan Milburn says the GP sick note culture for people with ADHD is insane. Doctors issued nearly one million sick notes signing people off work with mental health issues last year. It comes as the Government is told about 40,000 hidden NEETS (Not in Employment, Education or Training). The Children's Commissioner finds tens of thousands enrolled in college but hardly attending.
