Zia Yusuf slams other parties’ 'poisonous bigot' Ann Widdecombe rhetoric — plus nanny state questions over junk food ad ban

Duncan Barkes puts Labour peer Lord Foulkes on the spot over past insults aimed at the late Ann Widdecombe, including David Lammy's "poisonous bigot" jibe and Wes Streeting's jab — and asks whether Reform UK's Zia Yusuf has a point. 

Labour peer Lord Foulkes dodges and takes aim at Yusuf instead. 

Elsewhere, Andy Burnham's imminent premiership faces scrutiny questions, before lifestyle economist Chris Snowdon and commentator Benedict Spence rage against the government's latest nanny state crusade — banning junk food billboards — and ask when Britain will finally push back against endless state interference.
