‘It’s outrageous!’: Nigel Farage on Starmer’s ‘crazy’ migrant deal with Macron
Hundreds of migrants have crossed the Channel this morning, far outnumbering the handful who could be returned to France under Sir Keir Starmer’s new “one in, one out” migrant deal with Emmanuel Macron. As the French president arrived at No 10 for last-minute talks, The Telegraph watched boats packed with young men leaving Gravelines beach at dawn while French police stood by. Later, 74 men, a woman and three children were handed over to Border Force by the French Navy, who even asked for the migrants’ life jackets back.Critics warn that returning around 50 migrants a week will do little to reduce crossings, raising questions over Labour’s Channel crisis strategy. Camilla and Gordon are joined by Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp to discuss why the deal is a disaster for Britain and how Starmer has lost control of the border. Meanwhile, Reform UK is shaking up Westminster again. Nigel Farage was heckled at PMQs while raising concerns about illegal migration and ex-Tory MP Jake Berry has become the latest to defect to Reform. Our political correspondent Dom Penna joins us after speaking with Reform MP Lee Anderson on what the party’s rise means for the Conservatives.Producer: Georgia CoanSenior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineyVideo Editor: Will WaltersStudio Operator: Meghan Searle Hosted on Acast.

Why Starmer won't rule out a wealth tax
At today's PMQs, Labour leader Keir Starmer refused to rule out a new wealth tax.Leader of the Opposition Kemi Badenoch demanded a cast-iron guarantee that there won’t be an autumn Budget raid on wealth, but the Prime Minister couldn’t give one, fuelling Tory claims that a “toxic cocktail” of Labour tax rises could be on the way.Tim Stanley and Gordon Rayner are joined by Daily Telegraph Economics Reporter Emma Taggart to discuss what a potential 2% wealth tax on assets over £10 million, suggested by Labour grandee Lord Kinnock, could mean for savers, homeowners, and the British economy.And if you visit Heathrow this summer, Grammy-nominated artist Jordan Rakei has turned the airport’s everyday noises into a four-minute ambient soundscape designed to soothe travellers.

Macron arrives in London for Starmer’s Brexit surrender
Emmanuel Macron is in London this week, meeting the Royal Family - and Keir Starmer isn’t missing the chance to cosy up to the French President. The Prime Minister is hosting a summit in central London with Macron, bringing in French and British business bosses to talk trade and tech. Starmer is talking once again of strengthening ties with Europe, but is this yet another Brexit surrender deal after his ‘EU reset’ that gave away access to British fishing waters for twelve years?Starmer and Macron are also expected to announce plans for French police to do more to stop the endless flow of small boats crossing the Channel. But with no sign of a proper returns deal for illegal migrants, Tim and Cleo Watson ask The Daily Telegraph’s Europe Editor James Crisp what Britain really gets from this relationship. And we remember Tory grandee Norman Tebbit, who has died aged 94. A towering figure in Margaret Thatcher’s cabinet, he helped take on the unions, oversaw privatisation and famously survived the IRA’s Brighton bomb of 1984. Lord Charles Moore, Thatcher’s biographer, reflects on Tebbit’s legacy and the era he helped shape.Read:Victorious Macron arrives at summit to accept Starmer’s Brexit surrender - James CrispLord Tebbit, pugnacious Tory who articulated the Iron Lady’s views to the man on the streetProducer: Georgia CoanSenior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineySocial Media Producer: James SimmonsVideo Editor: Will WaltersStudio Operator: Meghan SearleOriginal music by Goss Studio Hosted on Acast.
