The broadcast began with the announcement that Sir Keir Starmer had unveiled a £15 billion defence spending increase, to be funded by cutting investment budgets, creating a £4.7 billion shortfall in Andy Burnham's first budget. It was reported that Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood had banned migrants from being housed in new build homes, following a case in Stoke Heath, and that she planned to prevent illegal migrants from using family ties to avoid deportation. GB News also showed exclusive footage of migrants throwing their passports into the water.
