About this episode
Former president Donald Trump has chosen self-professed ‘hillbilly’ and former Trump critic JD Vance as his would-be VP. Vance, who was announced as his running mate at the Republican national convention in Milwaukee, recently became a staunch Trump supporter, despite previously criticising him as “America’s Hitler” and “cultural heroin”.
Camilla and Kamal discuss the story behind the man on every Republican’s mind with Telegraph reporter and author Cara McGoogan who once tried to interview Vance before he slammed a car door in her face. Plus, is Britain suffering a baby drought? We’ll discuss the birth rate fall with Paul Morland, author of No-one Left: Why the World Needs More Children.
And should Southgate be knighted? Reaction to the England manager’s resignation with Senior Sports Writer Thom Gibbs.
