Rapist Brand Banged Up
Jeremy Kyle unpacks the new that Russell Brand has been convicted of rape and sexual assault, and is now expected to face a substantial prison sentence. A jury found the entertainer guilty of one count of rape and three counts of sexual assault, following a four-week trial at Southwark Crown Court in London.He was found not guilty of two other counts of rape, and one count of attempted indecent assault. Brand was refused bail and will spend the weekend in custody before he is due to return to the same court on Monday for sentencing.He could also face new rape charges within weeks after he was convicted on Thursday of attacks on four women. It’s been revealed that the Crown Prosecution Service is considering bringing further charges after he was accused of two more rapes, including that of a 16-year-old girl.His conviction has piled fresh pressure on the BBC over its failure to control its stars after it emerged Brand had boasted that his boss at the broadcaster was “incredibly tolerant” of his sexual behaviour.Meanwhile, Henry Nowak’s murderer Vickrum Digwa will spend at least 25 years behind bars after his original sentence of 21 years was ruled “unduly lenient”.Digwa had his sentence increased by four years after the Court of Appeal heard that he abused the Sikh privilege of carrying a knife. Digwa, who is Sikh, lied to police after the stabbing, claiming his victim had made racial slurs and physically assaulted him.Channel migrants have become a defining battleground in France’s presidential election. Édouard Philippe, Emmanuel Macron’s former prime minister, has threatened to tear up a key border treaty unless Britain agrees to pay more.The Le Touquet agreement allows British and French officers to carry out border checks in each other’s countries, giving British officers the right to operate in Calais and other crossing points.Wake up with Talk Breakfast in full on YouTube, DAB+ radio, Samsung TV Plus or the Talk App on your TV from 6am every morning.

Bosses Risk Jail Over MAD Trans Law
Jeremy Kyle unpacks the latest with The MAGA movement which has turned on Donald Trump following a crushing Midterm election defeat for the Republicans. His Vice President JD Vance and his own son, Donald Jr, blamed the President's war in Iran for his election loss.Donald Trump is even reportedly considering replacing his War Secretary Pete Hegseth with Ron DeSantis amid growing questions over the handling of the war in Iran.Meanwhile, Darializa Avila Chevalier, 32, a hard left socialist who wants to abolish police, prisons and protect migrant criminals from deportation was elected to the House of Representatives. Back home in Britain…. Bosses risk jail if their staff use the wrong pronouns to address trans people under the Government’s new conversion therapy law, campaigners have warned.The contentious draft Conversion Practices Bill states that company directors and leaders of other organisations can be held liable if one of their employees tries to suppress or change a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity, its opponents have said.But standing in for Mr Burnham at PMQs on Wednesday, Louise Haigh, the First Secretary of State, did not say whether Labour would act to tackle the soaring benefits bill.A French presidential candidate ripped into Britain's 'shocking' immigration policies and blamed them for the small boats crisis. Édouard Philippe has vowed he would tear up agreements between Britain and France if the UK didn't change its 'absurd' approach.He said it was “incoherent” for French police to attempt to stop migrants crossing the Channel, while Labour's policies enticed them over - and blamed Britain for the regular deaths of migrants.Wake up with Talk Breakfast in full on YouTube, DAB+ radio, Samsung TV Plus or the Talk App on your TV from 6am every morning.

US Midterm Special: Six Genders & A Non-Binary God
Jeremy Kyle discusses a celebrity who has lost his High Court bid to block reporting of sex abuse allegations. The well-known individual made the 'unprecedented' argument that he would kill himself if the claims went public.It is claimed that the man, named only as PPT, 'abused his status' to conduct 'inappropriate and exploitative sexual activities' with 'a large number' of women and girls over a number of years.The celebrity applied for an injunction against ITN and The Guardian newspaper, which said they had interviewed more than 100 people with knowledge of the celebrity's alleged misconduct. Mr Justice Nicklin refused to grant the injunction but ordered that the celebrity should remain anonymous until a later date. The judge said that the risk of the celebrity killing himself was 'genuine, grave and closely connected to the court's decision'.Across the pond, it’s been a terrible night for Donald Trump and the Republicans. The President has lost control of the House of Representatives and the Senate.Texas and South Carolina, which have not voted Democrat in decades, were among the deep-red states that fell, along with North Carolina and Ohio. Democrats also successfully defended vulnerable states including New Hampshire.Mr Trump will now be unable to pass legislation, or confirm Supreme Court justices or administration figures without Democratic support. It could make a cabinet reshuffle extremely difficult if the president tries to bring in figures who are not already confirmed. Mr Trump and other administration officials are likely to face investigations and possible impeachment.Wake up with Talk Breakfast in full on YouTube, DAB+ radio, Samsung TV Plus or the Talk App on your TV from 6am every morning.

Cleavage In The Classroom
Jeremy Kyle reacts as The Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood has watered down plans for tougher immigration rules after a Labour Party revolt.Almost 300,000 foreign care workers will be exempt from a crackdown that would have seen them wait years longer to win permanent status in Britain.Meanwhile, Andy Burnham is to give £40m to Caribbean projects amid a row about whether Britain should pay reparations for the slave trade. On the first day of the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting in Antigua, the Prime Minister will pledge the money for green energy schemes in the West Indies. He will also set out plans to help poorer Commonwealth members grappling with increased debt costs.Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband has said an apology for slavery could help Britain strengthen ties with the Commonwealth.In other news, telling someone who identifies as a cat that they are human will be illegal under a damning assessment of Labour’s Conversion Practices Bill.The wording of the bill intended to outlaw conversion therapy against trans and gay people is so “extraordinarily broad”, according to a study, that it would even protect those who call themselves 'catgender'. It comes ahead of the US midterm elections, which will determine whether the Republicans or Democrats control Congress. Trump has been facing falling polling numbers and pressure from within his party to end the war, which began when the US and Israel attacked Iran in February. Earlier on Monday, he told reporters that he was in "no rush" to ramp up strikes on Iran.And "Mogging", a word used playfully to mean outshining, outperforming or upstaging someone or something, has been named as word of the year by the Collins English Dictionary. We’re joined by not one, but two Moggers on the show today!Wake up with Talk Breakfast in full on YouTube, DAB+ radio, Samsung TV Plus or the Talk App on your TV from 6am every morning.

Small Boats, Big Lawsuits
Jeremy Kyle discusses the latest plans to toughen immigration rules are expected to be massively watered down today after a highly damaging battle within the Labour Party.Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood's proposals to make low-skilled foreign migrants wait far longer for 'settled' status in Britain have been rewritten after strong opposition from her party's left wing.Under the proposals, skilled workers would typically have to wait 10 years rather than the current five, but the lowest-paid workers, including care workers, would have to wait 15.The Home Secretary is now believed to be considering plans to treat care workers more like skilled workers, including doctors, who can “earn” reductions to their ILR wait by working in the public sector.Meanwhile, Andy Burnham is open to increasing financial assistance, i.e. reparations for Commonwealth countries, to help make amends for Britain’s role in the slave trade.The PM will consider demands for investment in healthcare and education from African and Caribbean countries. Commonwealth leaders said Mr Burnham had made an “essential first step” towards a reparations deal, after he said he was open to making a formal apology for slavery.Labour minister Emma Reynolds has been criticised for suggesting that employers are not “working people”. The Chief Secretary to the Treasury, when questioned about those hit by Labour’s economic policies, said she doesn’t think “employers are working people”.Chancellor John Healey has promised the benefits bill “will come down under Labour” and signalled more “hard decisions” on cuts to public spending, but he has FAILED to say when!

Banter Ban
Jeremy Kyle reacts as John Healey admitted last night he would not cut welfare before the next election. The Chancellor started the day by insisting handouts would be whittled down this parliamentary term. Britain’s annual welfare bill is on course to hit £431billion by 2031 — In the Budget on Wednesday Mr Healey said “There will be a reduction in the benefits bill. We’ll do that in a Labour way”.Treasury sources scrambled to downplay his commitment and suggested he had not made a firm pledge. At lunchtime yesterday No10 said the Government will not be setting an “arbitrary target or timetable” on reducing the welfare bill. This forced John Healey to completely U-turn last night by telling Channel 4: “It’s not correct to say that we are going to bring this welfare bill down in this Parliament because we’ve not set a timetable for that.”And now Andy Burnham now says he wants to make welfare cuts “as soon as possible” but refused to put a date on the promise. What a shambles!Treasury sources scrambled to downplay his commitment and suggested he had not made a firm pledge. The Banter ban comes into force today - Companies will be told to act like the fun police and monitor work parties and boozy get togethers. Ryaner’s Employment Rights act means businesses will be liable for offensive comments and behaviour of customers. Remarks relating to age, disability, race, religion, sex, sexual orientation and gender reassignment could be used to take businesses to employment tribunals. Meanwhile a full-blown Labour civil war over Brexit is emerging, pushing to drag us back into the EU while John Healey tells Burnham him in no uncertain terms to pipe down. Scotland Yard is in the mire yet again—the Met has referred itself to the police watchdog over a bizarre "lost" letter sent to Meghan Markle regarding abuse allegations, after reportedly snubbing key witnesses.And over at Buckingham Palace, the King’s poll numbers have taken a four-point tumble following Earl Spencer’s explosive new tell-all memoir. Though, to be fair to King Charles, he’s currently out in the Caribbean downing rum shots on official duty. And frankly, looking at the papers this morning, who can blame the man? Pour us one too, Your Majesty.Wake up with Talk Breakfast in full on YouTube, DAB+ radio, Samsung TV Plus or the Talk App on your TV from 6am every morning. Hosted on Acast.

Budget 2026: Burnham's Big Test
This morning with Jeremy Kyle it’s Budget Day - the first major test for Andy Burnham and John Healey. It’s reported that the Chancellor will swerve welfare reform in today's Budget – as he hands out billions of pounds more to benefit claimants.The Chancellor is said to be planning a 'steady-as-she-goes' Budget with some key measures to provide 'breathing space' to hard-pressed Britons.But Labour sources have told the Mail that the Chancellor has set aside £5.5billion to support a 3.5 per cent increase to benefits paid to ten million people despite official projections suggesting sickness benefits will jump from £83billion last year to £109billion by the end of the decade.He is also expected to earmark at least another £1billion to subsidise the fuel bills of those on benefits and low incomes this winter.But any immediate support for those not on benefits is expected to be modest, such as freezing NHS prescription charges at £9.90.Mr Healey was accused of an 'insult to families' yesterday after the Treasury revealed measures will include tariff reductions worth just 40p a week off average grocery bills.It seems as though this is a budget that will see us through until a General Election…What do you think?And a FIRST for TALK - Zack Polanski and Jeremy Corbyn speak to Talk’s very own Charlie Rowley.Wake up with Talk Breakfast in full on YouTube, DAB+ radio, Samsung TV Plus or the Talk App on your TV from 6am every morning.
