With diagnosis rates soaring up to 40-fold, experts warn that mislabeling young people risks damaging their development—while a separate report warns the surge is partly being fuelled by the benefits system.The Tory identity war deepens: Robert Jenrick has sparked a furious political row after declaring that "millions and millions" of people in England are not "culturally or ethnically" English.

Jeremy Kyle reacts Kemi Badenoch vowed to protect the family home from Labour saying the Tories promise NO stamp duty when you buy your house, NO mansion tax when you're living in it and NO inheritance tax when the time comes to pass it on. Couples will also be able to pass on a further £1million in assets tax-free, cutting the number who will ever pay inheritance tax by more than half. The £6billion pledge will be funded by cuts to the welfare budget.Kemi Badenoch accused Reform of wanting to take the UK backwards with outdated views on race after Suella Braverman said last week that she did not consider herself to be English, even though she was born in London. She also branded Nigel Farage's outfit weirdos and criminals - and urged its voters to come back to the Conservative fold and ruled out any pact with Reform.A small boat carrying 32 migrants was intercepted less than a mile from Dover yesterday after someone onboard….wait for it…phoned 999. Border Security Command vessels and lifeboats were scrambled just before 9am, with the dinghy located just outside Dover Harbour. However, the fact the dinghy was able to get so close to the British shoreline without being detected will raise fresh concerns over border security. Last month, Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood announced an urgent review after two boats made 'uncontrolled landings' on Kent beaches.Talking of migrant madness…A small boat migrant who was released from jail was given the keys to a taxpayer-funded home two days before he committed a sickening sex crime against a pair of young girls. Mohammed Abbas, had been sentenced for assaulting a cop when he broke into the sisters’ Cardiff home and exposed himself in July. Abbas, who claims to be Palestinian, arrived on a dinghy from France in March. But by June he was behind bars on remand before being given a fine and community service. Abbas was then released and moved into a £250,000 two-bedroom house in Cardiff provided by the Home Office. He was the only occupant at the time. At Cardiff crown court last month, Abbas admitted two charges of engaging in sexual activity in the presence of a child for the purpose of obtaining sexual gratification.Wake up with Talk Breakfast in full on YouTube, DAB+ radio, Samsung TV Plus or the Talk App on your TV from 6am every morning.

Jeremy Kyle reacts as a police and crime commissioner has come under fire for saying that police are being diverted from 999 calls to deal with anti-migrant protests while seemingly ignoring the amount of resources poured into welcoming these migrants when they reach Gosport.
