Join Justine and Gaz for another lively episode of The T Word as they discuss the week's biggest stories.

In this week's episode of The T-Word, we're diving into three massive issues plaguing Britain right now. First up, David Lammy's proposal to scrap trial by jury to clear court backlogs - but is removing this fundamental cornerstone of British justice really the answer, or just another sticking plaster over chronic underfunding? Justine breaks down the Levinson Report and explains why the real problem isn't jury trials, it's lack of investment in the justice system itself.

With Rachel Reeves set to deliver her budget, we dive deep into the leaked plans - from freezing income tax thresholds that'll drag 9 million more people into higher tax brackets, to the proposed scrapping of the two-child benefit cap. But here's the real kicker: while millionaires like Lakshmi Mittal flee to Switzerland and 10,800 wealthy individuals abandon the UK, Labour thinks the solution is more spending and higher taxes. We break down why this death spiral approach never works and what it means for ordinary working people.

This week on The T-Word, we're diving into the absolute circus that was conference season. From Keir Starmer name-dropping Nigel Farage 48 times to Kemi Badenoch's too-little-too-late ECHR promise, the establishment parties are scrambling. The Green Party wants to ban landlords (yes, really), and we explain why that's economic madness. But the real kicker? Gary Neville's tone-deaf rant against the very people who made him rich. We break down why flags represent territory, not racism, and why British people have every right to be proud of their country

In this week's episode of The T-Word, we dive deep into Labour's controversial digital ID card proposal and why it's nothing more than expensive bureaucracy that won't solve illegal immigration. We break down how this system can be easily circumvented by unscrupulous employers, the shocking security flaws already present in government systems, and why this feels like a dystopian overreach that could lead to Chinese-style social credit systems.

We also tackle the waste in public spending - from asylum seekers taking £980 taxi rides to GP appointments, to councils spending 10% of their budgets on school transport, to the astronomical costs of migrant hotels at £8 million per day. Plus, we discuss the absurdity of arresting 12,000 people for social media posts while knife attackers walk free with suspended sentences.

Labour's "one in, one out" immigration scheme is falling apart before our eyes - and we're discussing why it was doomed from the start.

In this episode of The T-Word, Justine and Gaz tackle Labour's disastrous immigration policies and the growing assault on free speech in Britain. From Keir Starmer's failing "pilot scheme" that's managed to deport just a handful of people while over 1,000 more arrive daily, to police knocking on doors demanding apologies for social media posts - we're witnessing a government that's lost control.

We dive deep into why Labour's economic policies are creating a death spiral for small businesses, how the minimum wage increases are actually destroying growth rather than creating it, and why 16,000 millionaires have already fled the UK since Labour took power. Plus, we examine the dangerous trend of compelled speech - from Ed Davey's refusal to say women can't have penises to NHS "people with cervixes" madness.
