David Bull sits in for Ian Collins.
Can Andy Burnham win back Britain? The Prime Minister is taking his cost of living message around the country as new polling raises questions about the strength of Labour’s support and whether Burnham can turn his premiership around before the next General Election.
David Wooding, columnist at The Sun, assesses Burnham’s cost of living tour, the latest bombshell polling on Nigel Farage, Reform UK, Labour and the Conservatives, and the growing political pressure on the Prime Minister.
We also examine the mounting controversy over PC Andrew Harper’s killers, after police warned that the public will judge Burnham over the decision to release them early. With prisons under pressure from reoffending, and reports that terrorists involved in a plot to kill thousands could also be released within weeks, is the Government losing control of the criminal justice system?
Polling expert Sir John Curtice, Professor of Politics at the University of Strathclyde, asks what Burnham would actually need to do to win back voters at the next General Election. With Labour pursuing a closer relationship with the EU and concerns growing over potential wealth tax rises, can Burnham rebuild the party’s support?
Finally, Sarah Pochin MP, Reform UK, reacts to Nigel Farage’s proposal to explore sending foreign criminals to prisons in El Salvador, alongside the case of an asylum seeker jailed for raping a 13-year-old schoolgirl after posing as a boy on Snapchat. What would a tougher Reform immigration and deportation policy look like in practice?
