The Daily T

In Wednesday’s episode of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley are joined by Tony Diver, The Telegraph’s Political Editor. Fresh from his trip to the UN General Assembly in New York, Tony discusses asking Donald Trump, the US president, about the Chagos Islands deal – leading to an embarrassing climbdown from the Prime Minister.

They discussed Andy Burnham looking nervous, and suggested he was “totally unprepared” and “possibly underqualified” for the world stage.

Plus, Piers Morgan discusses Earl Spencer’s inaccuracies and subsequent apology. The Uncensored host believes that Diana, Princess of Wales’s brother is “out to damage him” with the claims in his new book.
Asked whether he would be willing to negotiate if the Earl was to offer a donation to the King’s Trust in lieu of pulping the first edition of his book, Piers responded: “Everything’s negotiable.”

In today’s episode of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley speak to Andrew Lownie, the royal historian and author, about the impact of Earl Spencer’s memoir, in which he claims King Charles made disparaging remarks about Diana, Princess of Wales, in the days after her death. They discuss whether the fallout from his claims and the Palace’s unprecedented response speaks to a wider existential crisis affecting the institution. Camilla and Tim also ask Lownie about Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s current life “in exile” as he waits for the long-running police investigation into him to conclude, as well as news that Prince Harry is working on a documentary to mark the 30th anniversary of the death of his late mother. Elsewhere, as the United Nations summit takes place in New York, Camilla and Tim look at the points of disagreement between Andy Burnham and Donald Trump as the leaders meet face-to-face for the first time.

In today’s special edition of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley sit down with Victoria Ward, The Telegraph’s Deputy Royal Editor, to discuss further claims we’ve learnt from Earl Spencer’s memoir, in which he claims King Charles made disparaging remarks about Diana, Princess of Wales, in the days after her death. Victoria delves into the Earl’s accusations that the King is “gaslighting” him with the Palace’s response, and how he responded to being challenged over the contents of his memoir in his BBC interview with Laura Kuenssberg. Elsewhere, before next month’s Budget, Camilla and Tim also look into reports Andy Burnham is considering raising capital gains tax to fund a £20bn handout for the lowest earners.
