Description

Ian Collins asks whether free speech is being criminalised in Britain after shocking revelations that right-wing individuals are being labelled a “danger to children." Jamie Michael, the man at the centre of the story, joins us to explain how he discovered he’d been placed on an extremist safeguarding list, what it means for ordinary people, and why he believes political speech is now being treated as a public-safety threat.


Independent MP and Restore Britain leader Rupert Lowe reacts to Labour’s new welfare and employment proposals, including plans to push jobless young people into hospitality roles and moves to encourage widespread union membership through the Employment Rights Bill.


Former Apprentice star and commentator Lubna Zaidi breaks down the growing backlash against Labour’s proposed Islamophobia definition, why campaigners warn it risks silencing women, and what Kemi Badenoch’s alternative grooming-gangs inquiry could mean for victims who feel ignored.
