The Daily T

• Southport Attack: One Year On

  It’s exactly one year since Axel Rudakubana turned up to a Taylor Swift-themed summer holiday dance event in the seaside town of Southport, killing three girls (Alice Aguiar, Elsie Dot Stancombe and Bebe King) and attempting to murder ten others. In the days that followed, the town was rocked by riots as tensions in the community boiled over, prompting a heavy police response and sparking a national conversation about online misinformation and social division. For the anniversary of the attack, The Daily T travels to the heart of the Merseyside town to hear how the community is remembering those affected by the horrific crime, and what’s changed in the year since the tragic event.Camilla is on the ground in Southport speaking to locals and faith leaders, including a local Imam, about the impact the attack has had on their lives and how they have rebuilt after the events of that day.And Camilla and Gordon Rayner speak to Ben Roberts-Haslam, senior reporter at the Liverpool Echo, who was at the scene in the immediate aftermath and has since worked closely with the victims’ families.Audio credit to BBC News and Sky News.

• ‘I don’t want any child to watch my porn’: The OnlyFans star who’d rather lose money than have teen clicks

  Today, the UK is set to introduce age verification checks on porn sites to stop under age people from accessing explicit content.An Ofcom report showed 8 % of children aged 8–14 accessed porn in just one month, showing a desperate need for change. But will these measures actually work or do they risk pushing young people towards darker corners of the internet? For this special episode of The Daily T, Camilla talks through the new rules and the recommendations made by the Independent Pornography Review with Rebecca Goodwin, an adult film star, and Shaun Flores, a mental health advocate and educator who was addicted to porn.We explore how easy it is for teenagers to access adult content, what impact it’s having on mental health and relationships, and whether new laws banning acts like strangulation in porn will make a difference. We also discuss porn performer and content creator Bonnie Blue, who has spoken about creating more extreme content to survive in a competitive market - and the uncomfortable questions this raises about what our young people are seeing about sex online.Producer: Georgia CoanSenior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineyVideo Editor: Will WaltersExecutive Producer: Charlotte SeligmanEditor: Camilla TomineyStudio Operator: Meghan Searle Hosted on Acast.

  The British Medical Association has confirmed that a five-day resident doctors' strike will go ahead.Medics will be striking due to a pay dispute with the government, with the organisation demanding a 29% pay rise - despite a 22% increase over the previous two years.We speak to Professor Lord Robert Winston, who resigned from the BMA - an organisation he’s been a member of since 1964 - earlier this month, arguing that the strike action will damage the reputation of his profession.

• Jake Berry: Kemi Badenoch is toast, Nigel Farage should be PM

  He is just the latest in a growing number of disaffected Tories turning to Nigel Farage’s party.Former Conservative chairman Sir Jake Berry tells The Daily T why, after 25 years of Conservative Party membership and 14 years as the Tory MP for Rossendale and Darwen, he has decided to join Reform.As well as acknowledging his role as a senior Tory in the failure of “broken Britain”, Berry attacks the Labour Government, accusing Starmer of gross incompetence: “the Conservative Party failed to sort it out over 14 years. I think the Labour party’s done a worse job in 14 months.” Berry also explains why it took him losing his seat to realise that Nigel Farage is the only man who can fix Britain and why Kemi Badenoch is “toast”.The former MP also tells all on migration, taxation, spending and why he has changed his tune on net zero.Producers: Lilian Fawcett and Georgia CoanSenior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineyVideo Editor: Will WaltersExecutive Producer: Charlotte SeligmanEditor: Camilla TomineyStudio Operator: Meghan SearleProduction assistance from James Keegan Hosted on Acast.
