geoff duncan, and as we reported on this program yesterday, the republican mayor of mesa, arizona, john giles the ways the biden/harris administration has delivered for his state. here he is, talking to our friends at "morning joe." >> this is not a year that we can follow tradition or follow misplaced loyalty and vote for a republican at the top of the ticket. donald trump has demonstrated that he lacks the character, lacks the commitment to the rule of law, and to the united states constitution to qualify as an elected official, let alone as president of the united states. >> vice president kamala harris has also earned the endorsements from one of the most critical voting blocks for democrats, america's unions, including groups like the afl-cio, and american federation of teachers. in just a few hours ago, harris winning the support of one of the largest and most influential unions in the country, with nearly 1 million active and retired members, the united automobile workers. uaw president shawn fain saying in a statement, this, quote, this campaign is bringing together people from all wa

. >> john giles, what do you think we've got time for? how are they going to solve the, yeah. >> there's no shortage of prison space. >> yeah. i mean, this is another one of these open goals. we all know prisons are massively overcrowded. just the other day, they were saying only 700 places left. they say that every week, only 700 places left. but obviously it's one of the big things. starmer, as former dpp has been saying, look, there are no overnight fixes, but he is suggesting things like possibly cutting the amount of prisoners who go into who are put in jail. and obviously this big appointment of james timpson, new prisons minister, brilliant guy cobbler, who runs timpson's key cutting service , who's been key cutting service, who's been really important with, with the sort of rehabilitation and supporting, was one of the leading in fact, i think they were probably the first company that said we are deliberately going to employ ex—convicts, give them a level experience is really, really important. >> yeah. i don't think i'd call him

professor sir john curtice, thank you very much indeed for your experience and wisdom this evening. lovely to speak to you, i mentioned earlier, chalfont saint giles read out the candidates for that area. chris chilton is standing for the labour party, gareth david williams for the conservatives juuan williams for the conservatives julian david foster for the heritage party, justin collect mcpherson fulford for the green party, sarah green for the liberal democrats, lawrence jarvis for reform uk, mohammed pervez khan for the workers party of britain and that constituency in which south saint giles is included is chesham and amersham. coming up next is state of the nation with tom harwood. tom, what are you going to get into this evening ? going to get into this evening? >> well, we're going to be talking to stephen timms of the labour party on what is expected to be a super duper, perhaps supercalifragilistic supercalifragilistic . what on supercalifragilistic. what on earth am i trying to do ? earth am i trying to do? majority according to these latest polls. but we're also going to be looking at postal votes. the uk is only one of seven countrie

there was a minute ago i saw the labour candidate, john, a minute ago, >> charles watson, giles watlingey're all sort of gathering around some of the counting tables. let's talk to our home editor, mark white, who's there as well. what's going on, mark? >> well, a little bit of a delay. we don't know. quite what that delay is about, but everybody seems fairly relaxed. the, deputy returning officer had gone to speak to some of the people in the, the middle of the, the counting hall here has now gone back and is speaking to the candidates. so we are expecting that the declaration will be imminent, just looking around, no movement yet towards the stage, but i think it's worth reflecting on what this would mean. of course, if nigel farage is able to overturn the tory majority here. it was almost 25,000 for giles watling at the 2019 election, an absolutely thumping majority. so if nigel farage, in a party which clearly and as we speak, they're going to the stage for they're going to the stage for the declaration. so i'll just, make way for that and we can listen to that declaration now . lis

so newspaper review with david cameron's former adviser giles giles kenningham, who's got his own opinion on it. then we're speaking to john. is he going to be going for some of the more one nation candidates, like tom tugendhat or even james cleverly, to an extent? and then i'm also going to be speaking to craig mckinley, the bionic lord, who is back in business now, having had all four limbs amputated. chris hope did those wonderful series of interviews with him about the adversity he's faced. he's got a really interesting perspective. craig because he used to be a ukip then he joined the tories and i want to kind of drill into where do the tories go from here in regard to nigel farage? can you out farage, farage, should they lurch to the right? what should happen? so all that to come on today's show sounds absolutely. >> and just quickly, camilla, are we expecting kemi badenoch to throw a hat into the ring today? do you reckon ? today? do you reckon? >> i don't think it's today, dawn. i think it might be tomorrow, but she's definitely running. oh, and by the way of course we've got the government represented. steve reed
