Oliver Hides takes your calls on Sir Keir Starmer, online gambling and wedding crashers.

Is it time to get tough on gambling? Are you questioning Sir Keir Starmer's political judgement? And we hear the story of a couple who have tracked down their wedding crasher.

Keir Starmer is facing criticism again this week following the sacking of the US ambassador, Peter Mandelson, over his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein. He is also facing an internal Labour battle after his deputy prime minister, Angela Rayner, resigned last week over her tax affairs. So, with Starmer facing questions over his political judgement, are you questioning him too?

The billionaire John Caudwell, who founded Phones4U, is calling for a new tax on online gambling because it leads to 'mayhem in society'. He says, 'My whole philosophy is to do what鈥檚 best for society and tax those people that are not the best for society'. So, is it time to get tough on gambling? Or will this lead people to the black market?

And we hear the story of a couple who have tracked down their wedding crasher, four years after the stranger turned up at their wedding.
