  • Should Mamdani's win in NYC be a wake up call for Labour?

    Should Mamdani's win in NYC be a wake up call for Labour?
    Nov 5 2025

    Overnight, progressives in New York witnessed a political earthquake. A resounding win on a high turnout for the city’s first Muslim mayor - a democratic socialist with robust ideas about capitalism. Was it his youth? His clear cut policies? Or was it his authenticity that energised the city’s voters? And are there lessons to be learned for how politics should be done here in 2025?

    Health Minister, Wes Streeting, joins us to talk about personality in politics, and what Labour could learn from Mamdani's example.

  • The train stabbings: Could it have been prevented by stop and search?

    The train stabbings: Could it have been prevented by stop and search?
    Nov 3 2025

    The appalling train stabbing on Saturday night has sent politicians scurrying to find the right policy response. The shadow Home Secretary is calling for a dramatic increase in stop and search. Would this yield more arrests? Create a deterrent? Or just create tension and division amongst communities? We talk to Neil Basu, former head of counter terrorism and frequent target of Stop and Search himself.

    Later, why is Elon Musk conflating hobbits and rapists in rural England?

Very topical, daily news from the UK. As an American who lived abroad in the UK in the 90s I love it! And with our countries still tightly connected in this global world the news agents commentary is very much appreciated!
