"Starmer MUST Be REMOVED From Downing Street", Meghan Markle DROPPED

Who takes the crown as Plank Of The Week? Kevin O'Sullivan is joined by Samara Gill, Chloe Dobbs, Rafe Heydel-Mankoo and Ben Habib for Talk’s rapid-fire panel show tearing through the stories everyone is arguing about. The panel debate fresh controversy over migrant benefits, after claims that a quarter of migrants are receiving welfare payments, alongside fury at cultural flashpoints — including a museum covering a portrait of the Bank of England governor because of links to slavery, calls for an “anti-Muslim hostility” tsar, and claims police failed to protect a non-Halal restaurant in Hammersmith. Elsewhere the panel tackles the Churchill culture war, from reports of his removal from Bank of England banknotes to a Green Party figure laughing at vandalism of Churchill statues. They also react to Donald Trump criticising Keir Starmer over the Iran crisis, anti-war protests outside RAF Fairford, and the latest royal-adjacent drama as Netflix reportedly pulls back from Meghan Markle’s lifestyle venture. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The panel debate fresh controversy over migrant benefits, after claims that a quarter of migrants are receiving welfare payments, alongside fury at cultural flashpoints — including a museum covering a portrait of the Bank of England governor because of links to slavery, calls for an “anti-Muslim hostility” tsar, and claims police failed to protect a non-Halal restaurant in Hammersmith.


Elsewhere the panel tackles the Churchill culture war, from reports of his removal from Bank of England banknotes to a Green Party figure laughing at vandalism of Churchill statues. They also react to Donald Trump criticising Keir Starmer over the Iran crisis, anti-war protests outside RAF Fairford, and the latest royal-adjacent drama as Netflix reportedly pulls back from Meghan Markle’s lifestyle venture.
