Episode notes
Rachel Reeves finally confirmed Labour’s rumoured U-turn on the winter fuel cut for pensioners this lunchtime, completing a humiliating climb down for the Government. Nigel Farage was quick to take credit for the reversal in a speech in Wales.
Camilla and Gordon ask whether Reform’s continual outflanking of the Tories like this is only cementing their place in the public’s minds as the unofficial opposition.
Later, they speak to the MP tabling a new free speech bill after a man was prosecuted for burning a Koran. Nick Timothy says that blasphemy are being brought in through the back door to quash criticism of Islam.
