A Chinese businessman and alleged spy has now been identified as Yang Tengbo after a court order protecting his identity was lifted.
He was banned from the UK last week amid claims he had formed an "unusual degree of trust" with the Duke of York - Prince Andrew. Judges were told the businessman was attempting to leverage the disgraced Prince's influence. Former Conservative leader Sir Iain Duncan Smith joins us in The Daily T studio to explain why the alleged spy could be one of many such Chinese agents operating "in plain view" .
And could fresh evidence from the legal team for former neonatal nurse Lucy Letby prove her innocence?
This week we will be highlighting the work done by the four charities The Telegraph is supporting in our Christmas appeal. In today's episode, we'll be looking at Humanity and Inclusion, a global charity working alongside disabled and vulnerable people in 60 countries affected by poverty, conflict and disaster. You can read more about the work done by Humanity and Inclusion, as well as Adelie Pojzman-Pontay and Francis Dearnley's reporting from Kharkiv, on The Telegraph’s website. Other charities we are supporting include: Alzheimer’s Research UK, Teenage Cancer Trust and Army Benevolent Fund.

And the latest Saudi sportswashing as they get the 2034 World Cup
Labour has unveiled the biggest changes to - and liberalisation of - planning laws in a generation to help deliver on its promise of 1.5 million new homes this parliament.
With the Tories worrying that concerns of local people will be “completely swept aside”, Camilla and Kamal speak to shadow housing secretary Kevin Hollinrake who also claims the “majority” of the 1.5 million new homes will be for immigrants.
Plus, Saudi Arabia has won an uncontested bid to host the 2034 World Cup, so we speak to chief sports writer Oliver Brown about FIFA's "grotesque" decision - the latest in a long line of Saudi attempts at 'sportswashing'.

Robert Jenrick, shadow justice secretary and former Tory leadership contender, joins Kamal and Camilla in the studio to discuss Labour's multi-billion pound grand plans to build four new super-prisons.
The prisons will create 14,000 new places, but Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood says we’re still going to run out of space within three years. They will also be forced through the planning process by Angela Rayner under powers that allow the objections of local towns and villages to be overruled.
Kamal and Camilla ask if forcing prisons through the planning system without properly consulting with local residents is ever a good idea.
Plus Jenrick on first-cousin marriage and whether Shamima Begum should return to the UK now that the Assad regime has fallen.

Another day, another defection to Reform.
Billionaire property tycoon Nick Candy renounced his Conservative Party membership to join Farage, blaming “too many broken promises” from his former party.
Camilla was in Westminster to catch up with Farage and Candy, who said he will give a "seven-figure" sum to Reform UK when he becomes the party's treasurer in the new year. Kamal and Camilla consider where this leaves Kemi Badenoch - does she need to be more scrappy to keep Farage at bay?
And after actress Keira Knightley declared her big scene in the Christmas film Love Actually “creepy”, we ask if there is, actually, anything to love about the festive favourite.

With journalist Ruth Sherlock quite literally on the road to Damascus and Tom Tugendhat MP in the studio
In a whirlwind 48 hours, more than half a century of brutal Assad family rule in Syria came to an end this weekend. Rebel forces entered Damascus after a lightning offensive that forced the Syrian president to flee on a plane to Moscow.
Kamal and Camilla speak to Ruth Sherlock - who after years of reporting on the Syrian civil war is en-route back into the country - about the chaotic scenes on the streets of Damascus, where armed fighters have descended.
And Tom Tugendhat MP, who served in Iraq and Afghanistan, speaks to the Daily T about his "deep concern" at the power vacuum in Syria, whether the UK should still proscribe the leading rebel group as a terrorist organisation, and what Assad's departure means for Iran and Russia.

More than 9 million people of working age in the UK are not looking for a job or able to start work. Meanwhile sickness and disability benefits cost the taxpayer £48 billion a year.
Following his Channel 4 documentary on the issue, former Spectator editor Fraser Nelson visits some of most workless areas of the country to understand why Britain isn’t working - and how a solution is essential to get the economy growing.
Plus, Labour MP Rachael Maskell has said “there is nothing safe” about the assisted dying Bill. She tells the Daily T that MPs should “hit the pause button” on the law until palliative care is improved.

Keir Starmer delivered his ‘plan for change’ in a key speech at Pinewood Studios, Buckinghamshire, setting out what he called 'milestones' for his government. It comes after a challenging five months in office for Labour, but they denied that it was an emergency relaunch, despite their plummeting approval rates.
Camilla and Ben Riley-Smith are at Pinewood to react to the Government's new plans and ask the current Cabinet (including Lisa Nandy, Yvette Cooper, and Ed Miliband) what it all means.
And as France falls into political turmoil after their Prime Minister resigns following a vote of no confidence, Kamal speaks to our Europe Editor James Crisp about what this means for the country's future and its role within Europe.

ConHome founder Tim Montgomerie has jumped ship.
The Conservative Party lost another prominent member this week to Reform - this time an even bigger blow - over broken promises on immigration.
Amid reports that Elon Musk is planning to give $100 million to Reform, Tim Montgomerie told Kamal and Gordon that he “certainly wouldn’t say no” to the cash and that the Tories have become “too broad a church”.
Plus, a row over rainbow armbands is engulfing British football. Are they a gesture of support for the LGBT community or just meaningless gesture politics?

In a big foreign policy speech on Monday night, the Prime Minister warned Donald Trump that the UK would not side with America against the EU when he re-enters the White House next year. The comments come after speculation that the President-elect may launch a trade war against the EU and reduce support for Ukraine and even NATO.
Kamal and Camilla consider whether Britain will have to choose between the “special relationship” and closer ties to the EU under a Trump administration.

Masterchef host Gregg Wallace has responded to allegations of inappropriate behaviour via an Instagram message, claiming the accusations have only come from “middle-class women of a certain age”.
The presenter has since apologised - but questions remain for the BBC and for Banijay, the production company behind MasterChef, as to why they didn’t act sooner over Wallace’s alleged behaviour.
Kamal and Camilla are joined by The Telegraph’s Sophie Barnes who helped to break the story for our investigations team.
And as opinion polls show that Keir Starmer’s approval ratings are falling, he has announced his ‘Plan for Change’ for the “next phase” of government. Is this the PM’s relaunch? And is it a little too late?

In recent years, politicians appearing in reality TV shows has become something of a trend - think Matt Hancock and Nigel Farage on I'm a Celebrity, Ed Balls on Strictly, or Penny Mordaunt on Splash!
The latest to join their ranks is former cabinet minister Jacob Rees Mogg, who earlier this year let cameras into his 17th century stately home in Somerset, where he lives with his wife and six children.
Jacob joins Camilla and Kamal over breakfast in the Daily Tea studio, to discuss how his children felt about appearing on the series, whether reality TV can really help a politician get out a message, and which TV shows he's inclined to binge (the answers may surprise you).

The assisted dying bill may have cleared its first hurdle in the House of Commons, but could it still be blocked? In a historic vote in parliament this afternoon, MPs voted for the legislation by 330 to 275, a majority of 55 – but it faces a long road to potentially becoming law.
Meanwhile the government has suffered its first cabinet resignation, as Louise Haigh has stepped down as transport secretary following reports that she was once convicted of fraud. Kamal and Gordon ask: why are we only learning about this now? And has this resignation of one of Labour’s more left-wing cabinet ministers come at a convenient time for an embattled prime minister?

We asked the Reform leader about his ambition to be PM.
After their rapid rise and shock success in the general election, Reform UK is getting serious. Nigel Farage’s party has surged to 100,000 members and is focusing on grassroots campaigning, setting up branches across the country.
Can they force out the Tories to become Labour’s main political challenger by 2029?
At a Reform event in central London as revised figures show net migration hit nearly 1 million last year, Kamal and Camilla catch up with Farage, plus party chairman Zia Yusuf and Tory defector Andrea Jenkyns.

And Boris Johnson gives us his views on the assisted dying bill with 48 hours to go...
After nearly 120 years of service, the car company Vauxhall is planning to shut its Luton van-making factory in a move that puts 1,100 jobs at risk. Owner Stellantis has blamed the government’s zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) mandate for the cuts. Kamal and Camilla discuss the impact net zero is having on the car industry and if it's actually worth it.
And what can we learn from Canada's assisted dying laws? As England and Wales look to pass a similar bill, we speak to a Canadian doctor about her concerns that vulnerable people are at risk and a retired senator who wants the laws to extend even further to those with mental health issues.

Kamal and Camilla speak to the man behind the controversial document: Kevin Roberts.
President-elect Donald Trump spent much of his campaign distancing himself from "Project 2025", but he’s now brought several key conservatives tied to the initiative into his administration. So what exactly is it?
The 900-page policy wish list was drawn up by the Heritage Foundation, one of Washington's most prominent right-wing think tanks. Kamal and Camilla chat to its president, Kevin Roberts, about the thinking behind Project 2025 and how influential it will be over the next four years of Trump's presidency.
Plus, we're joined by Telegraph writer Gareth Davies who spent a week living off the president-elect’s strictly fast food diet. Could you survive on 12 cans of Diet Coke a day?

Days before Parliament votes on the controversial assisted dying bill, the Government itself is divided. That’s despite being told to remain neutral on the issue.
It’s another example of Keir Starmer and Labour doing politics poorly.
Kamal and Camilla ask: Why let such a contested subject be rushed through via a private members’ bill? And can we really have an informed discussion about assisted dying when palliative care in the UK is so bad?
Plus, 2 million people have signed a petition calling for another general election. Kamal and Camilla take a look at the reaction and why voters feel betrayed.

It’s been a turbulent week for Ukraine, which was finally given approval to use US and UK-supplied long range missiles but also faced intensified Russian attacks.
As the third anniversary of Russia’s full scale invasion approaches, Tim and Kamal ask what the coming months could hold for the conflict. Will Trump’s White House force Kyiv to cede territory? Will Zelensky stand down? And what’s the role of China in all this?

Why the death of the former deputy prime minister matters more to Labour now than they realise
One of the key figures of the New Labour government John Prescott, died this morning aged 86. Kamal and Tim Stanley reflect on their encounters with the former Deputy Prime Minister, and why Keir Starmer's government could do with a 'Prescott' figure that can connect with parts of the Labour party and the wider electorate others can't.
Plus, former Conservative Party leader Iain Duncan Smith is in the studio after he grilled Keir Starmer on his meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping. He criticises the government for its 'appeasement' of Beijing and warns that a defeated Ukraine would 'embolden' China.

Labour tell big tech firms to get a grip on harmful online content, or they could ban platforms for children altogether...
On the front page of today’s Telegraph, Peter Kyle has told Ofcom - the communications regulator - that it needs to apply far more pressure on social media firms and tech giants in order to protect children online. If it doesn’t, the government will consider a social media ban for under 16s.
Kamal and Gordon Rayner speak to the campaign group Smartphone Free Childhood who want to see more done to bring children off phones.
Plus, it’s not just the farmers! Kamal and Gordon meet the fifth generation funeral director who’s fearful for the future after Rachel Reeves made similarly huge changes to inheritance tax for businesses.
And a new study says people from the north east are the best at spotting fake accents. We put it to the test...
