Director of The Academy of Ideas Baroness Claire Fox kicks off this morning's show by delving to the top headlines as schools are to be banned from letting pupils change gender if their parents oppose the decision, we also discuss the upcoming Partygate vote as Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has declined to say if he will vote on a report that found Boris Johnson deliberately misled MPs over lockdown parties in No 10. Jeremy Hutton from Migration Watch joins shortly after as small boat migrants top 10,000 this year – despite Rishi Sunak hailing a fall in crossings. Former Adviser to No/10 Tim Montgomerie returns to The Independent Republic to discuss the today's Partygate vote as approx. 70 MPs with constituencies in the “red wall” were said to be feeling “incredibly warm” towards Johnson, after he urged his parliamentary supporters not to vote against the committee’s finding. Former Special Advisor to Boris Johnson & former London mayoral candidate Samuel Kasumu joins Mike shortly after to discuss why he was ousted from the race, and Columnist from The Telegraph Madeline Grant closes the show to discuss the ongoing Covid Inquiry and fury over a mountain of thousands of unused PPE kits have been dumped near a nature reserve - with councillors baffled how they were fly-tipped without anyone noticing. All that and so much more, so tune in!Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
