    Has Trump forced an Israel-Hamas ceasefire in Gaza?

    A “final round” of truce talks aimed at ending the 15-month conflict in Gaza has begun in Qatar. Mediators have said an agreement - to release Israeli hostages from Gaza and eventually end the fighting between Israel and Hamas - is “very close”. Camilla and Kamal ask if peace could finally be brokered in the Middle East and, if so, whether Donald Trump has made the difference after promising “all hell will break out” if there are still hostages in Gaza after his inauguration. They also speak to Sharone Lifschitz, whose elderly parents were kidnapped from the Nir Oz kibbutz on October 7th and whose father is still being held captive. Plus, with the Pope’s autobiography released today, our own Christopher Howse has read it so that you don’t have to.

    Is Rachel Reeves on borrowed time?

    Labour promised growth. Can it deliver? The Chancellor has flown back from China to financial markets in turmoil, with the cost of long-term Government borrowing hitting fresh highs and a sharp slump in the pound. Kamal and Camilla assess whether Rachel Reeves will have to increase taxes, borrow even more money, or make drastic cuts to public spending in order to steady the ship - and whether she’ll even survive in the role for much longer. Plus - potholes! As The Telegraph launches its 'Fix Our Potholes' campaign, Camilla takes Kamal on a drive around rural Hertfordshire to see first-hand just how bad the problem is. They also speak to Mark Morrell - a man known as Mr Pothole - whose relentless campaigning has seen over 10,000 potholes get filled in.

    Exclusive: Grooming survivor demands public inquiry

    Amid all the noise made by Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch, Nigel Farage and Elon Musk in recent days about the grooming gang scandal, the voices that have struggled to be heard the most are those belonging to the survivors of this appalling abuse. On today’s Daily T, Camilla has interviewed Gaia Cooper, who survived being criminally exploited and repeatedly raped by a grooming gang when she was just 14, and has since written a book about her horrific experiences called ‘Modern Slave’. Gaia talks about why she thinks figures like Elon Musk and Tommy Robinson are being disingenuous and why Prime Minister Keir Starmer needs to launch a national inquiry.

    Has Labour opened the door to a grooming gangs inquiry?

    Having said a national inquiry into the grooming scandal was off the table, today the government looks to be signalling a possible U-turn. Meanwhile Kemi Badenoch ramped up the pressure on Keir Starmer at PMQs. Camilla and Kamal assess her performance. Plus, the world is preparing for a second Trump presidency. Facebook and Instagram’s parent company has announced it will end third-party fact-checking as Mark Zuckerberg cosies up to the president-elect. And as Trump sets his sights on Greenland, we get the local reaction.

    Is Kemi Badenoch losing the battle for the Right?

    And lessons from Canada's Conservatives The Tory leader has been oddly quiet since the New Year, despite a heated public row between Keir Starmer, Nigel Farage and Elon Musk over grooming gangs. Shadow justice minister Robert Jenrick was on the broadcast round instead this morning, throwing out red meat about immigration and “alien cultures”. Kamal and Camilla ask: should Badenoch be clearer about what she stands for? Plus, they consider what the Tories could learn from the collapse of Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government and the rise of the Canadian Conservatives under Pierre Poliviere.

    Has Elon Musk done Farage a favour?

    Tommy Robinson has caused a rift on the right It feels like just yesterday the X owner and the Reform leader were pictured together at Mar-a-Lago. Now Elon Musk has publicly attacked Nigel Farage, saying he ‘doesn’t have what it takes’ to lead the party and should be replaced. The men are split over Tommy Robinson, real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon. Currently in prison for contempt of court, the far-Right activist has received Musk’s backing, while Farage has distanced himself from the EDL founder. Their public spat began after the resurfacing of the child grooming scandal, as it was revealed a Labour minister declined to lead an inquiry in Oldham. We also ask: would a new inquiry help the victims get justice?

    How parental alienation is tearing families apart

    Described as a child’s rejection of one parent because they have been manipulated by the other, parental alienation can see parents separated from their children for many years. That’s the case for the two alienated mothers who shared their heartbreaking stories with The Daily T. Parental alienation currently has no legal definition and is a contested subject - often cropping up alongside accusations of domestic abuse - but can have devastating consequences. With allegations of parental alienation on the rise in the courts, we also hear from a leading family court lawyer about how judges should respond.
