THE GALLANTRY PODCAST - Episode 1

My First Podcast Conversation Goes Live On Wednesday 8pm on YouTube, recorded in Parliament with Karl Turner MP (East Hull), from his office overlooking the River Thames.

We discuss one of the most serious constitutional Issues currently facing the UK: proposals to curb the right to Trial by Jury, a safeguard that for centuries has stood between the power of the state and the individual accused. Karl Turner MP sets out his objections to David Lammy MP’s proposals, and why weakening jury trials should be a huge concern anyone who believes in due process, fairness, and democratic restraint. I also put questions to Karl on the leadership of the Prime Minister, Keir Starmer, immigration and the surge of Reform in the Polls.

This podcast is rooted in a simple principle: free speech means the right to criticise, to disagree, and to hold power to account. That principle is being steadily eroded, often under the pretext of preventing offence, while leaving governments freer to act in ways the public clearly reject.

This is the first of many conversations already lined up, including interviews with former Extremist, Senior Legal Experts, MPs, Ex-Service Personnel, Psychologists, and others who shape our society or are actively trying to change it for the better.
