t was front-page news when earlier this year, rapper and businessman Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs was arrested after facing a wave of civil lawsuits related to allegations including sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy and rape.
Then earlier this month, an amended lawsuit filed in a federal court in New York alleged that fellow rap star Jay-Z had raped a 13-year-old girl with Combs during a party in 2000, an allegation Jay-Z has denied, calling it a “blackmail attempt” by the lawyer who is behind it all.
Tony Buzbee is representing those accusing them - a multi-millionnaire lawyer who lives in one of the most expensive houses in Houston, Texas. The Telegraph's Mick Brown has traveled to the US to interview him and joins Kamal to tell us what it was like to meet the man behind a media storm.

Gisèle Pelicot’s courage, resilience and fortitude in publically proving a decade of rape and sexual abuse at the hands of her husband and fifty other men has transformed her from septuagenarian grandmother to French national hero.
Dominique Pelicot will go down as one of the worst sex offenders in modern French history, having been sentenced to 20 years in prison for drugging Gisèle and inviting dozens of men to rape her in her home in the south of France.
Kamal and Camilla speak to The Telegraph's Paris correspondent Henry Samuel from the courthouse in Avignon, Provence, where he has been following the trial and its conclusion.
Elsewhere, they speak to The Telegraph's Lucy Foster, who is spearheading our Christmas Charity Appeal, about the final of the four nominated charities this year - the Teenage Cancer Trust.

It is surely an image for the history books. Nigel Farage stood next to two billionaires, one of them Elon Musk, at Donald Trump’s Florida estate. The X owner is reported to be considering donating as much as $100 million to Reform UK.
Is this foreign interference in our politics? And what would a history-making donation to Farage’s party mean for Labour and the Tories?
Plus, political editor Ben Riley-Smith has been speaking to Keir Starmer about Russia and tax - on board a frigate in Estonia, no less.
We also hear from veteran broadcaster Alastair Stewart about living with dementia and his work with Alzheimer’s Research UK.

New figures show that not only has the economy contracted, but job hiring is at a record low.
Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves strode into Downing Street on July 5th talking about just one thing - growth. But since then the government has raised employers’ national insurance contributions, slapped taxes on farmers, slashed winter fuel allowance and now worse news still - the economy officially shrunk in October and the number of job vacancies is at a record low. So, is Rachel Reeves the worst chancellor in history?
Plus, we’ll hear from a veteran who lost both his legs and his right arm in Afghanistan and how the Army Benevolent Fund - another of the charities the Telegraph is supporting this Christmas - changed his life.

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.
And PR disaster, or marketing genius? As the boss of Jaguar defends their controversial rebrand, we’re joined by The Telegraph’s motoring editor Paul Hudson to talk about the backlash and why their new Barbie-pink Jag is dividing opinion.

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.
