‘Vote-grabbing’: Backlash over Burnham’s Israel sanctions

In today’s episode of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley discuss Andy Burnham and Ed Miliband’s decision to impose sanctions on Israeli settlements in the West Bank.

They explore whether it could affect the UK’s relationship with the US, and if the move is a desperate ploy to sway voters before the crucial Holborn and St Pancras by-election next month.

Plus, Camilla and Tim are joined by Victoria Ward, the Deputy Royal Editor, to discuss the King’s official letter clarifying that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex remain non-working royals.
