As 140 people arrive in the UK on a “mega-dinghy”, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley look at the anti-migrant protests in Dover and Portsmouth in today’s episode of The Daily T. They discuss Andy Burnham making TikToks instead of dealing with ongoing problems the country faces.


Plus, Camilla and Tim are joined by George Madgwick, the leader of the Reform UK group on Hampshire county council, who was at the demonstration in Portsmouth.
