This week, Labour proposed a shake-up of the welfare system—targeting Personal Independence Payments.
The UK government says it’s about fairness, fraud, and fixing a broken system. Critics call it a £5 billion cut that could hit the most vulnerable.
But Rachel—who’s living with something most of us can’t imagine—sees it differently. She’s living with terminal cancer and believes she shouldn’t qualify. And she’s not alone. Others in her position feel the same.
So, does reform mean justice or cruelty? Rachel shares her story with Trevor, explaining why she understands the need for a system reset—for cutting abuse, for targeting real need. If these reforms mean more money reaches people in worse financial shape than her, she’s willing to step aside.
Then, we meet Just A Jester—a musician who’s turned loss into legacy. Seven Glastonburys. A lifetime on stage. And a song—No Windows—that asks: how do you grieve, move forward, and never let go?
And finally—a legal showdown. The Trump administration ignored a federal judge’s order, deporting over 130 Venezuelan immigrants to a maximum-security prison.
The claim? They’re gang members.
The truth? It might be about their sexuality.
