    Ian Maxwell exclusive: ‘My sister Ghislaine is being used as Epstein’s scapegoat’

    As the police investigation into Andrew Mountbatten Windsor continues, his friend Ghislaine Maxwell is serving a 20-year prison sentence for her role in the heinous crimes of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. But as the final Epstein files are released to the public, a haunting question remains: has she become a “convenient stand-in” for a dead man while other high-profile figures walk free? In this exclusive episode of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley are joined in the studio by Ghislaine’s brother Ian Maxwell, who is a consistent and vocal defender of his sister. Ian discusses the family’s belief that Ghislaine has been selectively prosecuted as a scapegoat, why she invoked the Fifth Amendment before the US house oversight committee and the reality behind her plea to President Donald Trump. Ian also speaks about his sister’s life behind bars, the “suspicious” deaths of both Epstein and the Maxwells’ father Robert, and why he doesn’t believe it matters if the infamous photograph of Andrew Mountbatten Windsor with Virginia Giuffre is real or not.

    'Traitor Starmer must resign!' Chagos Islanders' fury at prison threat

    Keir Starmer has served a group of Chagos Islanders who landed by boat on the territory on Tuesday with an eviction notice, threatening them with a three-year prison term if they don’t leave. The Chagossians who returned are protesting against the government handing the islands back to Mauritius, and include the elected first minister Misley Mandarin. Camilla and Tim speak to Chagos campaigner and sister of Mr Mandarin, Vanessa Calou, who says that Starmer has “given away our island without consulting the British people” and calls the Prime Minister “disgusting” and a “traitor” who must resign. They also attend Robert Jenrick’s first press conference as “shadow” chancellor, and ask whether Reform have abandoned radical policy ideas in an effort not to spook the markets.

    Farage’s No 10 lineup: dream team or Tories 2.0?

    Nigel Farage has announced Reform’s “shadow” Cabinet team as he continues to prepare for a general election that he insists will happen in 2027. Camilla and Tim assess who got what job, the absent roles (and faces) and Farage’s reaction to the Daily Telegraph’s “Campaign for Democracy” after the Government U-turn on cancelling 30 local elections. They also speak to Suella Braverman, Reform’s new “shadow” education minister, who has pledged to introduce a “patriotic curriculum” and to repeal the Equality Act. We want to hear from you!

  5. The Labour smear campaign that exposes Starmer’s ‘Stasi’ government

    The Labour smear campaign that exposes Starmer’s ‘Stasi’ government

    Another day, another Labour scandal. The campaign group that helped sweep Sir Keir Starmer into No 10, Labour Together, now stands accused of orchestrating a sinister smear campaign against journalists. After The Sunday Times revealed the group had failed to declare £730,000 in donations, Labour Together reportedly paid a US consultancy to dig into the “backgrounds and motivations” of reporters Gabriel Pogrund and Harry Yorke. As the Cabinet Office begins “looking into” the affair, Camilla and Jacob Rees-Mogg ask how deep do Labour Together’s roots run in this Government and if PM Keir Starmer should now sever ties completely. And as pressure mounts for a full police investigation into Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor over fresh revelations about his time as trade envoy, emails now suggest he leaked confidential information about Royal Bank of Scotland after its £45bn bailout, and shared sensitive details about Aston Martin.

    Jimmy Lai’s son on PM failing to release his father: He’s serving a death sentence

    “Beijing’s public enemy No 1” – a title that defines the fate of the media mogul Jimmy Lai. A self-made millionaire, a British citizen and an unapologetic opponent of China’s authoritarian regime, he now sits behind bars, facing a 20-year sentence under Hong Kong’s draconian national security law. Camilla and Tim speak exclusively to Sebastien Lai, Jimmy’s son, about his father’s deteriorating health, his disappointment with Sir Keir Starmer and the British Government’s “lacklustre” response, and why he is pinning his hopes for his father’s freedom on Donald Trump ahead of the US president’s visit to China.

    Hypocrite Starmer wrong for demanding Ratcliffe apology

    Manchester United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe has been forced to apologise for describing the UK as “colonised by immigrants,” after Sir Keir Starmer described his words as “offensive and wrong”. Camilla is joined by Jacob Rees Mogg, who says Ratcliffe is merely highlighting “a lack of integration” and that the PM is “in no place to moralise at the moment” after a series of scandals. Elsewhere, the podcast speaks to students who are leaving university with an average of £53,000 worth of debt, a burden that Sir Jacob blames on the Government’s “interest rate racket”.

    'Stuffing Government with paedophile apologists': Starmer in fresh vetting crisis

    Sir Keir Starmer is facing yet another crisis over his poor judgment after it emerged that he nominated his former spin doctor, linked to the convicted paedophile Sean Morton, to the House of Lords. Kemi Badenoch skewered the Prime Minister in the Commons over Lord Doyle’s appointment, accusing him of “stuffing Government with hypocrites and paedophile apologists”. Tim and Camilla review a disastrous PMQs for Sir Keir and question his latest distraction tactic of playing up his “working class” background. Meanwhile, Sarah Pochin, the Reform UK MP, was banned from speaking at Bangor University, whose debating society accused her of racism, transphobia, and homophobia. She tells Camilla the decision goes against free speech, and also weighs in on Nigel Farage’s latest attack on working from home. We want to hear from you!
