Sir Keir Starmer is facing yet another crisis over his poor judgment after it emerged that he nominated his former spin doctor, linked to the convicted paedophile Sean Morton, to the House of Lords.

Kemi Badenoch skewered the Prime Minister in the Commons over Lord Doyle’s appointment, accusing him of “stuffing Government with hypocrites and paedophile apologists”.

Tim and Camilla review a disastrous PMQs for Sir Keir and question his latest distraction tactic of playing up his “working class” background.

Meanwhile, Sarah Pochin, the Reform UK MP, was banned from speaking at Bangor University, whose debating society accused her of racism, transphobia, and homophobia.

She tells Camilla the decision goes against free speech, and also weighs in on Nigel Farage’s latest attack on working from home.
