"Grant Shapps has questions to answer": Jacob Rees-Mogg on the Afghan MoD data breach


Listen Later

Was this the most expensive – and possibly most disastrous – email in history?


It has been revealed that the details of up to 25,000 Afghans – soldiers who worked alongside the British and their families – were mistakenly leaked by a Marine in 2022.


The Government at the time secured a superinjunction to prevent the breach being reported, meaning the £7bn earmarked to address it faced no scrutiny.


Jacob Rees-Mogg was a senior MP back then and tells Camilla what he did and didn’t know at the time, who should take the blame, and if this was a coverup at the highest level.


Plus, Chancellor Rachel Reeves just can’t catch a break! Not long after her big speech to finance movers and shakers, new figures put inflation at its highest level in 18 months.
