Should refugees be refused British citizenship if they arrived by small boat?
About this episode
Lewis Goodall of The News Agents podcast is covering for James O’Brien, live on LBC from 10am, and of course, right here on James O’Brien Daily.
The government is making it almost impossible for refugees arriving on small boats to become British citizens. Will this prevent small boat crossings and are Labour acting too much like the Conservatives? Lewis speaks with Labour MP Stella Creasy, who disagrees with the change.
Also, rebel Labour MPs are pushing the Deputy Prime Minister, Angela Rayner, to adopt a four-day working week in her employment rights bill. Lewis speaks with Peter Dowd MP who put forward the amendment and asks if a 4-day working week would be realistic.
Lewis also speaks with Leila Molana-Allen, Special Correspondent for PBS NewsHour, about Benjamin Netanyahu and Donald Trump’s claim that they’ll remove the ceasefire in Gaza if Hamas does not release all Israeli hostages by Saturday.
And, Lewis catches up with LBC’s Washington Correspondent for all the details on Elon Musk’s denial of a 'hostile takeover' of the US government.
