  • Starmer attacks 'open border' Tories, plus Andrea Jenkyns defects

    Starmer attacks 'open border' Tories, plus Andrea Jenkyns defects
    Nov 28 2024
    It's been a day of press conferences in Westminster. First to Reform UK, where Nigel Farage unveiled their newest MP: Dame Andrea Jenkyns, who has served as a Conservative MP since 2015. Could there be more defections on the horizon?

    Next to Keir Starmer who reacted to the newly published migration figures from the ONS. Net migration for the 12 months to June 2024 stands at 728,000. But the real story was the revised 2023 figures, which showed net migration exceeding 900,000. The politics from the press conference were solid - but what about policy announcements?

    Oscar Edmondson speaks to James Heale and Michael Simmons, and they also look ahead to tomorrow's unpredictable assisted dying vote.

    Produced by Patrick Gibbons and Oscar Edmondson.
