    Why is Dubai such a magnet for Londoners?

    The Standard’s latest special report reveals the dark truth behind Dubai, as thousands of Londoners are flocking to the Middle East city each year. Ninety per cent of its residents are from elsewhere, and the Gulf expert Christopher Davidson referred to it as the “ultimate liberal economic city state”, which offers the allure of low taxation and cheap labour. But what lies beneath the wealth and glamour? Mustafa Qadri, founder and chief executive of the human and labour rights organisation Equidem, investigates modern slavery in a global economy. He joins us to discuss the human rights violations that underpin this polyglot city.  Podcast image by HIT&RUN Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    The Duke of York's fall from grace

    Prince Andrew will be stripped of all his titles, Buckingham Palace has confirmed, and will now be known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor. King Charles made the unprecedented statement last night, that he will no longer be able to live on the crown estate, and instead will move to a property on the Sandringham Estate. It follows mounting pressure over a string of scandals, the most damaging being Andrew’s relationship with the paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein and alleged sexual abuse of Virginia Giuffre. Freelance journalist Alice Cockerell is here to discuss the fallout.  And in part two, The Standard’s Head of Culture Martin Robinson joins us to review Florence & The Machine’s new album Everybody Scream.  Hosted on Acast.

    Will the Chancellor be sacked over her rental rules breach?

    Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has dismissed calls for an investigation into Chancellor Rachel Reeves, after it emerged she did not obtain the required “selective” rental licence for her £3,200-a-month Dulwich home when she moved into No 11 Downing Street following the election. In a letter to the prime minister, Reeves “sincerely” apologised for her “inadvertent error”, but the Tories have said she should be sacked. They cited Starmer’s argument after Boris Johnson’s fine for breaching Covid rules that “lawbreakers cannot be lawmakers”. The Standard’s Chief Political Correspondent Rachael Burford is here with the latest.  And in part two The Standard’s Chief Theatre Critic and host of The London Theatre Review podcast, Nick Curtis, is here to review Ella Hickson’s adaptation of Peter Pan, from the Royal Shakespeare Company, which is showing at The Barbican Centre.  Hosted on Acast.

    How will Rachel Reeves fix the budget black hole?

    Today Chancellor Rachel Reeves has insisted Britain can “defy” economic forecasts as she prepares to deliver another tough budget next month. The Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) is expected to deal the Chancellor a further blow in November by downgrading its productivity forecasts for the British economy, leaving her trying to fill a gap in her plans of more than £20 billion. Some top economists have warned Reeves that increasing income tax or reducing public spending is her only option for balancing the books. We’re joined by Chaitanya Kumar, Head of Economy and Environment at the New Economics Foundation. And in part two, The Good Food Guide has named the Pelican as London’s best pub. The Standard’s Restaurant Critic and Going Out Editor David Ellis is here with the latest. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Asylum system shake up as migrants moved to military sites

    Today it’s been announced that hundreds of asylum seekers are to be moved to military sites as the Government aims to end the use of hotels to house small boat migrants. However, defence minister Luke Pollard admitted that using military sites could cost the taxpayer more than asylum hotels. Yesterday Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer said he was “frustrated and angry” about the soaring cost of the asylum system, after a damning inquiry by the home affairs committee found that Home Office mismanagement had “squandered” billions on housing migrants in hotels. The Standard’s Chief Political Correspondent Rachael Burford is here with the latest.  And in part two, The Standard’s Food & Drink Writer Josh Barrie joins us to discuss London’s best old school Italian restaurants.

    Billions squandered on migrant hotels due to Home Office ‘incompetence’

    A parliamentary report has sharply criticised the Home Office's management of the asylum system that has led to "billions" of pounds being wasted. It said the government has repeatedly cut corners and wasted taxpayers’ money with its “failed, chaotic and expensive” system. It comes as the Housing Secretary has said that progress on ending the use of hotels for asylum accommodation will be announced “within weeks”. Daniel Sohege, a specialist in international refugee law and protection, and the director of human rights organisation Stand For All, is here to discuss the news.  And in part two, The Standard’s Entertainment Editor Lisa McLoughlin joins us as it’s been revealed that Hollywood A-list couple Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes have moved to the leafy north London suburb of Hampstead.

    Where are London’s violent crime hotspots?

    The Standard can reveal a new interactive map that pinpoints London’s violent crime hotspots, as latest figures show the capital still accounts for almost a third of knife offences in England and Wales. Billy Gazard, of the ONS, said the data for police-recorded crime “paints a mixed picture”, adding: “Homicide and offences involving knives and guns have all fallen in the past year. While shoplifting continues to rise year on year, there are signs the rate of increase in reporting of these offences is slowing.” The Standard’s Crime Correspondent Anthony France is here with the latest.  And in part two, The Standard’s Culture Writer India Block joins us to discuss Lily Allen’s new album, West End Girl. It’s the pop star’s first album in seven years and offers a lyrical takedown of her ex, David Harbour, that does not pull any punches. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
