3:09 pm
britain falls silent to remember the sacrifice of all those millions of brave men and women who gave their life to defeat. >> exactly. and this is important thing here. exactly the kind of irony this is marchers represent. look nana the metropolitan police and suella should have stopped the march from going ahead. it is provocative . it is frightening. provocative. it is frightening. it is anti—semitic and never before on remembrance day has any group held a protest march for war, not for the iraq war, not for the war in afghanistan, not for the war in afghanistan, not for the war in afghanistan, not for any other county wars where civilians have died. but here in this clear war in israel of self—defence and this is self—defence by the one and only jewish state in which which suffered i mean the most the most horror flying massacre since the holocaust. this is
3:10 pm
unbelievable what's going on in london now . what is your opinion london now. what is your opinion about it? please tell me. >> well, i. i mean, look, first of all, they would probably argue that they are peaceful protesters. so they're protesting for peace and they're concern with the level of death thatis concern with the level of death that is happening in gaza with regard to a lot of the people who live there are not hamas who live there who are not hamas and hamas, obviously, the governing there , hamas, governing body there, hamas, i agree are terrorists , agree with you, are terrorists, but they would these but they would argue that these people protesting for peace. people are protesting for peace. and where we go and that's that's where we go with and that's why these with this. and that's why these protests, which have gone ahead under that guise and i agree with you, there will be an element of people who are supporting a lot of supporting hamas. but a lot of people there are likely to be saying that they are supporting they looking peace, they are looking for peace, although i am with you in many respects. i question that because okay, that's because i say, okay, if that's the case, why you an the case, why don't you carry an israeli flag and a palestinian flag and put them together? and or there nobody there or why is there nobody there actually for the hostage actually calling for the hostage to be released, that sort of
3:11 pm
thing is what i'm concerned. >> exactly . exactly. and if the >> exactly. exactly. and if the protesters really were pro peace , as they claim they would be protesting against hamas, not israel , and protesting against hamas, not israel, and that that is a fact. >> but they would argue. but they would argue that they are a political not necessarily on one side or other, although many are carrying palestinian flags. they would probably argue that their their aim and their goal is to preserve life and they want peace. >> okay. going back to israel, nana , there are less missiles nana, there are less missiles flying in. you can actually feel that there are missiles that are being depleted . and we are being depleted. and we are meanwhile , finding out that meanwhile, finding out that hamas headquarters, missiles , hamas headquarters, missiles, launchers are all based in schools, in hospitals . it's schools, in hospitals. it's unbelievable. and you know, we are filming all this. i incredible how they use poor
3:12 pm
civilians, children as human shields. now, the world has to know this now. it's very difficult for us to bring this out in the in the open because there are about . what, one point there are about. what, one point 1.5 billion, 1.5 billion muslims. and there are about 14 million jews. so the internet, tiktok, facebook , instagram, tiktok, facebook, instagram, twitter , it's just a massive , twitter, it's just a massive, massive drive against israel. but we're trying to do our best to try to explain the real situation that is happening in gaza. >> i think a lot of people don't really have a real understanding of the brutality of what happened on the seventh. we hear it . i don't know whether people it. i don't know whether people are actually, you know, imagine ing they to be ing that they happen to be because bottom is, if because the bottom line is, if any of those pro—palestine protesters near that, the protesters were near that, the border with gaza that day on that seventh, the hamas terrorists wouldn't have cared who they supported. they would
3:13 pm
have killed them. so i think, you know, people need to be a bit more real about the situation and understand that they are in discriminate. >> more nana do you >> one more thing nana do you remember michelle obama holding up the plaque free? the girls that were kidnapped in nigeria and all those celebrities that were all holding up freedom? you know, we have over 200. and what, 30 hostages, babies , what, 30 hostages, babies, children , babies were kidnapped children, babies were kidnapped from their mothers hands . where from their mothers hands. where are the protests around the world? celebrities from michelle obama. i challenge michelle obama. i challenge michelle obama. hold up . hold up. obama. hold up. hold up. a plaque saying , free the babies, plaque saying, free the babies, free , free the children . it's free, free the children. it's not there. she's not showing up. this is this angers me and you. you understand my passion for this terrible deed and my questioning the world. where are you ? why aren't you protesting
3:14 pm
you? why aren't you protesting against the kidnapping of children? kidnapping of children around the world? this is a massive crime against humanity. >> yeah, well, i mean , it was >> yeah, well, i mean, it was a massive crime. it was barbaric . massive crime. it was barbaric. it was disgusting . it was the it was disgusting. it was the most unimaginable behaviour. and it's terrifying . terrifying, you it's terrifying. terrifying, you know, as a as a mother, as somebody you know, i don't want people coming into my house with machine guns and grenades and stuff like that. it literally stuff like that. so it literally it's to anyone who it's terrifying to anyone who would have seen that. but of course, it's terrifying with bombs being dropped in gaza as well. but the bottom line is the only divides israel only thing that divides israel and gaza is the fact that israel has the iron dome. had israel not had the iron dome, israel would like gaza. well, would look like gaza. well, listen, we've just lost ori ori, you know, i think you've got your across . it's lovely you know, i think you've got your to across . it's lovely you know, i think you've got your to you across . it's lovely you know, i think you've got your to you as'oss . it's lovely you know, i think you've got your to you as ever it's lovely you know, i think you've got your to you as ever .t's lovely you know, i think you've got your to you as ever. stayvely to talk to you as ever. stay safe. was safe. thank you. that was mystifier uri geller, live in tel aviv, giving us an update on what's going on on the israel side of things as well. well
3:15 pm
moving on, because here in the uk, a major policing operation has been underway in london with nearly 2000 police officers deployed across the city. but what's expected to be one of the biggest political marches in british history, hundreds of thousands of people have descended onto the capital for a pro—palestine . no, not pro—palestine march. no, not armistice no , the armistice day. march, no, the pro—palestine march calling for a ceasefire in gaza. i don't know how realistic that is , but know how realistic that is, but the prime minister appealed for unity amid concerns it would spark violence. on a day of remembrance for war veterans. meanwhile, home secretary suella braverman pressure braverman remains under pressure from all sides after accusing the police bias when they the police of bias when they resisted pressure ban the resisted pressure to ban the protest. well, joining me now is gb news home and security editor mark to the latest mark white to give me the latest from central london. there from central london. he's there live . so, mark, how peaceful live now. so, mark, how peaceful have those protests been so far? because the visions that we're seeing are people marching peacefully with banners that talk about gaza. there doesn't seem to be anything there . i seem to be anything there. i haven't seen or heard the word jihad or seen anyone chanting
3:16 pm
from the river to the sea. but what's it actually like on the ground . ground. >> it's been very peaceful. there's lots of chants of to the river to the sea. we're hearing that regularly here. but this one is peaceful. some of the counter—protesters we know have not been that peaceful. there have been sporadic violence and groups that have been in contained by the police. in fact , just want to show you just now , nana, where we are actually is just it's a row of police vans that are blocking off the north end of vauxhall bridge down millbank to stop any of these pro palestinian protesters getting down towards the cenotaph , but also to stop some cenotaph, but also to stop some of these counter—protests getting up to here to meet this main march. we can give you a look just down through this officer , if he doesn't mind,
3:17 pm
officer, if he doesn't mind, down through to that area there, you can see another cordon of police vans and officers there. i think the counter—protesters that were there have moved on now. they were just at one of the pubs, just on the corner there for a while . the officers there for a while. the officers did have their helmets on for a while as well . so an indication while as well. so an indication perhaps that things were looking a little bit hairy for a while, but it certainly seems to have calmed down. can't actually see many people at all on that corner. now, it may be that they've moved back down towards westminster itself. as i say , westminster itself. as i say, nana, there was a couple of flash points earlier down towards westminster near the cenotaph, around portcullis house, near winston churchill statue, and even actually up in chinatown as well. what starts with those? we don't really know, but but there there was for a while police cordon and
3:18 pm
police did have a bit of audio from mark. >> they've got a bit of a dicey signal. thank you, mark. we will come to him. got come back to him. we've got loads to you. loads of updates to bring you. we'll updates we'll be bringing you updates from that through throughout the programme. we're just programme. but we're just getting of getting some pictures of protesters who have climbed the world war one memorial at wellington arch. so here we go again . it started already. this again. it started already. this is incendiary . they've is quite incendiary. they've placed flag on the placed a palestinian flag on the statue that is there and that is obviously not acceptable . and obviously not acceptable. and there are protesters actually climbing on the monument as well. so there are they're standing there so that that this is what we were concerned about. this we're worried is what we were concerned about. this you we're worried is what we were concerned about. this you aggression ried is what we were concerned about. this you aggression can be in about. you aggression can be in two forms. you can have violent and shouty aggression or you can have passive aggression equally as . and that to me is as offensive. and that to me is passive aggressive. so it's only the start the protest. but we the start of the protest. but we will be following that protest throughout. it'll end around about show. we about 5:00 mid of my show. we will bringing you updates will keep bringing you updates on all of that. you're with me. i'm akua. is gb news i'm nana akua. this is gb news on and on digital

iii >> i >> welcome back. >> welcome back. >> this is gb news on tv online and on digital radio. i'm nana akua. and on digital radio. i'm nana akua . right. well, listen, we're akua. right. well, listen, we're going live to our masters because nearly 2000 police officers have deployed officers have been deployed across london today as hundreds and thousands of people descended on the capital for a pro—palestinian march in exclusion zone was put in place with metal barriers covering military areas , including military areas, including whitehall and the horse guards parade to prevent the protests getting near to them. whilst the cenotaph has a dedicated 24 hour police presence in place until the end of the remembrance events tomorrow. so joining me now is defence analyst and former british army officer stuart crawford . stuart, thank stuart crawford. stuart, thank you so much forjoining me. now, what are your thoughts ? have the what are your thoughts? have the police enough and should police done enough and should they have actually maybe postponed or done something different with these marches . different with these marches. >> well, so far, i think it's
3:38 pm
fair to say that sir mark rowley , um, approach has been justified in that there hasn't been what i would call serious disturbance in the central of london so far. but remember , london so far. but remember, this can continue until the last trains go home and even maybe beyond that. but at the moment it looks as if the organisers of the pro—palestinian demonstration have got got it right . right. >> and the only people who appear to be causing trouble are those black clad right of centre people who have been clashing with the police off and on throughout the course of the day i >> -- >> well, can 5mm >> well, can i, can i? so look, you've seen this though, but as you've seen this though, but as you said, it's early days. the protest has only just started. really. there have been people climbing on monuments already, though, in drapes, in the palestinian flags on them just because they're not making a noise in a sort of overtly
3:39 pm
aggressive way that is passive aggressive. surely that is a likely is the sort likely thing. that is the sort of thing then is encourages of thing that then is encourages and violence and anger from others. seeing that indeed so. >> and it is highly disrespectful and unpleasant for many people. but being disrespectful and unpleasant is not against the law unless it leads to physical harm or the incitement of violence . incitement of violence. >> and, you know , we live in >> and, you know, we live in a liberal democracy where freedom of expression is allowed. >> and i'm very pleased that thatis >> and i'm very pleased that that is the case. and in many ways, i spent 20 years in uniform defending that. right. >> so i think it's difficult >> so i think it's a difficult line, particularly for the police to walk between freedom of expression and stopping violence and so far, it looks as if they've got it right. >> yeah, but they're still chanting from the river to the sea. and that's highly offensive to many jewish people. if you're a jewish person, you certainly wouldn't go through here or i
3:40 pm
don't anyone you know, don't see anyone you know, carrying israeli flag or carrying a israeli flag or anyone actually castigating hamas. it seems you know, i mean, they've still got banners saying free palestine and all that. saying free palestine and all that . it's still quite that. it's still quite incendiary just because they're walking supposedly calmly right now . how. >> now. >> yes, i think that's a very fair point of view. >> but remember , the as i said >> but remember, the as i said before, this police operation will go on well into the next week, if not beyond that. and those who are inciting violence as you have described, will be picked up in due course because their faces are all over their cameras. many of them are chanting in arabic , i'm not an chanting in arabic, i'm not an arabic speaker. so i mean, as far as i know, they could be saying there fairies the saying there are fairies at the bottom i just bottom of the garden. i just don't saying. don't know what they're saying. but you know, i think that when fear and is incited by people and people are fearing for their lives and property , then i think lives and property, then i think the police have to step in and i think the police are well placed to do just that. what about the
3:41 pm
disrespect, though? >> it's armistice day. it's remembrance weekend . and, you remembrance weekend. and, you know, just because they're doing it a little bit earlier and avoiding cenotaph now , avoiding the cenotaph for now, let's be honest, it's a bit disrespectful . surely they disrespectful. surely they should have just done it on another we have our another day. can't we have our national day and that be moved somewhere else? on that level? surely that it's bad decision surely that it's a bad decision to this to go ahead on to allow this to go ahead on this day? >> well, like it and i >> well, i don't like it and i know lots of people who don't like it, but as long as it's de—conflicted , then i guess that de—conflicted, then i guess that our liberal democracy allows this sort of thing to happen. i would far rather they had held their demonstration on another day, on another weekend . but day, on another weekend. but it's not as if they've been holding it only on this weekend . holding it only on this weekend. well, exactly. such demonstrations . demonstrations. >> well, exactly. they've had it. well that's a good point. they've had it for three. how many already ? so surely many weekends already? so surely they have been told that. they could have been told that. perhaps not weekend . i just perhaps not this weekend. i just think of people watching think a lot of people watching that highly
3:42 pm
that feel that it's highly disrespectful and all the money that's going out there to police this when really whilst you're saying that what's happened is a lot of war veterans and people who normally come who would normally come to the cenotaph occasion have cenotaph for this occasion have not come. so the hidden conflict of this, which is not being addressed , that is the amount of addressed, that is the amount of people who scared away people who have been scared away from london because the from london because of the pro—palestine march who would normally know, normally come. and you know, commemorate their war dead. and those who are serving in the armed surely ? armed forces surely? >> no, i think that's a fair enough point of view. i mean, it's a difficult one to calculate in terms of absolute numbers don't numbers because we don't know what have happened had what might have happened had this demonstration not not taken place. but i'm a great believer in live and let live where possible . as i've said before, possible. as i've said before, as long as there isn't any calls to violence or harm to others or to violence or harm to others or to property . and at the moment, to property. and at the moment, and i stress at the moment, to property. and at the moment, and i stress at the moment , this and i stress at the moment, this weekend looks as if it's going better than many people feared.
3:43 pm
but there's a long way to go yet i >>i >> i suspect they're just doing that for now, just because a lot of people might want to unseat suella braverman because it's useful. but i'm not so sure. it's only just started and there are already people climbing on monuments so that that's obviously no good. do you not think that perhaps the police , think that perhaps the police, the way they're dealing with the counter marches is slightly offensive and suella had a point there when she said that it's a sort of soft touch for anything that's slightly left leaning. but soon as come but then as soon as you come to anything supposedly right anything that's supposedly right wing are calling wing or some people are calling it right, i haven't seen it far right, i haven't seen anything they anything that's far right. they just different opinion . just have a different opinion. do you think had a point do you think she had a point there the do you think she had a point therextremes the do you think she had a point therextremes are the do you think she had a point therextremes are a the do you think she had a point therextremes are a bit the do you think she had a point therextremes are a bit is the do you think she had a point therextremes are a bit is uneven two extremes are a bit is uneven i >> -- >> well, i've seen those arguments. and of course, social media is awash a so—called illustrations of that . and it's illustrations of that. and it's i think the police are duty bound to treat everybody that comes across their path in such
3:44 pm
circumstances without fear of favour. and i do understand and i do see that there is an argument there being slightly lighter air on the pro—palestinian demonstrators than they are on the those who are counter demonstrating. but they are trying to prevent a breach of peace and keeping the two groups apart , i think is an two groups apart, i think is an important part of that . important part of that. >> i the problem is that >> i think the problem is that there's many there's just too many of the pro—palestinians the march pro—palestinians in the march there, they just they've there, and they just they've just the option. just gone for the easier option. that's but i mean, that's my view. but i mean, a lot of people think lot of people might think differently well, lot of people might think differe|thank well, lot of people might think differe|thank you well, lot of people might think differe|thank you so ilell, lot of people might think differe|thank you sorlell, for listen, thank you so much for joining was defence joining me. that was defence analyst british army analyst and former british army officer stuart, officer stuart crawford. stuart, thank you for thoughts. thank you for your thoughts. well, fast well, let's just fast approaching 45 minutes after our 3:00. this is the gb news on tv onune 3:00. this is the gb news on tv online and on digital radio. i'm nana akua and it's time now for this week's political spotlight . this week's political spotlight. and joining me to shine a light is former liberal democrat is the former liberal democrat minister, baker. now, minister, norman baker. now, norman has spent a long time in british working as the british politics working as the member for lewes member of parliament for lewes in east sussex from the 1970 1995 sorry, till 2015. he also

3:46 pm
>> i know, but policing is an independent operation in this country. it's part of our democracy that the police are operationally independent. and we have politicians we cannot have politicians of either side telling police either side telling the police what to do, particularly the home the police, of home secretary the police, of course, are accountable , but course, are accountable, but they're accountable after the event , not before it. and we event, not before it. and we cannot if we have situation cannot if we have a situation where ministers start telling the they go the police how they should go about business, a about their business, that's a very slippery slope very dangerous, slippery slope to she is out of to go down. so she is out of order. interesting that not order. it's interesting that not just five opposition parties have called for her resign. have called for her to resign. and of london, and the mayor of london, i gather now as well, but also sir nicholas soames, winston churchill's grandson, has criticised her. >> keeps coming up, doesn't he? >> and a lot of the conservative party as well. and you find very few defending few ministers out defending her. the saying he the chancellor saying he wouldn't have the words wouldn't have used the words she's i she has she's chosen. so i think she has missteps , but quite badly in missteps, but quite badly in terms of what she's been saying. >> that lot of >> but you say that a lot of people country will people in this country will agree and feels like people in this country will agre their and feels like people in this country will agre their thas feels like people in this country will agre their thas been.s like that their voice has been diminished and there doesn't seem anyone says seem as soon as anyone says anything slightly anything that is slightly different to what the narrative is right to these

3:48 pm
>> but, i mean, unfortunately, she's it from a position she's doing it from a position of that's of home secretary. and that's rather has of home secretary. and that's ra legal has of home secretary. and that's ra legal response has of home secretary. and that's ra legal response ability has of home secretary. and that's ralegal response ability and has a legal response ability and a position government . and by position in government. and by the collective cabinet the way, a collective cabinet response ability government, response ability in government, which not pursuing which apparently not pursuing because the article she wrote for the times was not cleared by the prime minister. >> stage of it was and >> the last stage of it was and it took out some of it was she took out some of the things, them was the things, but one of them was the comment where she compared the pro—palestinian protests to what happened. pro—palestinian protests to what happened . northern ireland. happened. northern ireland. northern ireland. yes. >> , i mean, that was the >> well, i mean, that was the bit wanted take out bit that he wanted to take out that in. that she left in. >> something >> but is that really something where you're going oh, where you're going to say, oh, she should be she should be resigning, after resigning, especially after what? what are number what? what are we on number nine? of these nine? ten? how many of these home have? home secretaries have we have? >> a lot, >> well, i know we've had a lot, but theresa may was, of course, my boss and stayed my boss at and she stayed in office secretary for office as home secretary for more years. it's more than five years. so it's perfectly that. perfectly possible to do that. but i have to say that suella braverman has also been whipping up comments about, example , up comments about, for example, people who are homeless, saying it's choice. i some people who are homeless, saying it':these choice. i some people who are homeless, saying it':these chho. i some people who are homeless, saying it':these chho are ome people who are homeless, saying it':these chho are homeless of these people who are homeless in streets ex—service in the streets are ex—service people come back from people who've come back from afghanistan iraq . they've afghanistan and iraq. they've got post—traumatic stress

3:50 pm
want to be on the street in whatever they're and whatever mind they're in. and she that she makes a point that that that is, i think she's making valid is, i think she's making a valid point. is, i think she's making a valid poirfact that somebody like her the fact that somebody like her would actually mention that and make a point of that make a point of it so that people acknowledge it's not people acknowledge that it's not always always help always you can't always help people. would liked people. but i would have liked to an to her to put forward an alternate . if we're going to say alternate. if we're going to say that, then have something where people can go. >> to ask yourself why >> you have to ask yourself why she's making statements, she's making these statements, whether it's about the homelessness or it's about refugees about refugees or whether it's about the people who are marching. she's incendiary language. she's using incendiary language. and moment, and actually at the moment, because the people the because the people on the israeli side and the palestinian side both feel very strongly about happened about what's happened to them, both the appalling work both about the appalling work going on in gaza and the destruction of homes and deaths of children, but also the massacre people, innocent massacre of people, innocent people israel, people on both people in israel, people on both sides feel very strongly about that. and it's responsible to for view, for government, in my view, as a former to calm things former minister, to calm things down. not, not, not not pour down. not not, not, not not pour petrol flames, is petrol on the flames, which is what doing. petrol on the flames, which is whtmaybe doing. petrol on the flames, which is whtmaybe doingjust seeing >> maybe she's just seeing it from the perspective a of from the perspective of a lot of people and people in the general public and using language that the people can which
3:51 pm
can understand, which is straightforward straight talking, which is lacking heavily. you've had days, you've had people today sorry, nana you've had people today who have been and been counter—protesting and they're the ones that police have had to deal with predominantly, far. predominantly, i think so far. but that might be because they're group and so they're a smaller group and so it's the police it's easier for the police to manage group, you've to manage that group, you've got to admit. that's the admit. and in fact, that's the point in her point that she made in her piece, are it seems point that she made in her pieceyou are it seems point that she made in her pieceyou know, are it seems point that she made in her pieceyou know, black: seems point that she made in her pieceyou know, black lives|s that, you know, black lives matter slightly left matter or anything slightly left leaning to get a softer touch. >> i don't think that's fair. and the police i think and the police actually i think the and the police try very clearly. and mark rowling this mark rowling is playing this week try to week as a commissioner. try to enforce the law. that's her duty to fear or to enforce a law without fear or favour. as one of your favour. and as one of your people moment ago, people said a moment ago, the guy ' people said a moment ago, the guy , what the guy from edinburgh, what the police this police do and i know this is a former the police will former minister, the police will identify who are causing identify people who are causing who are breaking the law , let's who are breaking the law, let's put it that way, breaking the law. they photograph them law. they will photograph them unnecessary and them unnecessary and chase them afterwards not safe afterwards because it's not safe necessarily, or good policing . necessarily, or a good policing. exactly. for them break exactly. for them to break a line. exactly a police line and go arrest that go and arrest them at that particular point. but if they've committed will committed an offence, they will be be pursued

be they will be pursued subsequent many are of them. >> so, so for example, the approach the people who are approach for the people who are supposedly on right of it is supposedly on the right of it is to and speak to them and have to go and speak to them and have a and whatever, a word with them and whatever, whatever then for whatever they do. but then for those because there's those who because there's a large them, is take those who because there's a léphotograph them, is take those who because there's a léphotograph .them, is take those who because there's a léphotograph . so m, is take those who because there's a léphotograph . so ii, is take those who because there's a léphotograph . so i think take those who because there's a léphotograph . so i think she's a photograph. so i think she's right. by own admission, right. by your own admission, what saying is that she's what you're saying is that she's she's because she's she's right because she's they're not going a they're not going to go into a crowd because foolish and crowd because it's foolish and instead going take instead they're going to take pictures. the approach is pictures. so the approach is obviously different because there to there are a larger group to a smaller they can smaller group. they can go in and that that will be. but consequence is be. but >> but the consequence is if someone's they someone's broken the law, they will charged. someone's broken the law, they wilithese charged. someone's broken the law, they wilithese are charged. someone's broken the law, they wilithese are but ged. someone's broken the law, they wilithese are but but not >> these people are but but not on because there's on the spot because there's a lot are chanting from lot of them are chanting from the sea they've the river to the sea and they've only or only got about 100 cells or something, 137 cells london only got about 100 cells or so puthing, 137 cells london only got about 100 cells or so put people? cells london only got about 100 cells or so put people away. london only got about 100 cells or so put people away. these|don only got about 100 cells or so put people away. these people to put people away. these people know to put people away. these people knoyeah, well, really >> yeah, well, it doesn't really matter whether they charge them now or charge them next week. they'll get charged with it. broken. . it's broken. broken. the law. it's true. they should. true. so they should. >> you're >> it's true. but when you're watching it, you'll see the police who police going in on people who are right and are supposedly to the right and you'll see them taking photographs are photographs of people who are supposedly because photographs of people who are suppothatl because photographs of people who are suppothat group because photographs of people who are suppothat group smalleruse photographs of people who are suppothat group smaller .;e photographs of people who are suppothat group smaller. so those that group are smaller. so that's i'm saying. may that's what i'm saying. she may have look have a point that it does look different. i mean, it looks different. i mean, it looks diffirent different. i mean, it looks diffi think i think the police >> i think i think the police
3:53 pm
have difficult have got a very difficult job and they're handling it and i think they're handling it quite think the quite well. and i think the following their duty without fear . that's honest fear or favour. that's my honest opinion fear or favour. that's my honest opiiand what about you then, >> and what about you then, yourself, your journey into politics? easy journey? >> no, it wasn't. i mean, look, she wanted to be elected as an mp. you don't stand as a liberal democrat . stand know, democrat. you stand you know, you a safe seat for you find a safe seat for a conservative labour seat . conservative or a labour seat. you know, there no safe lib you know, there are no safe lib dem seats apart from possibly orkney and shetland. >> any lib dems >> are there any lib dems around? them anywhere. >> well, there are. i mean, there's them. there's not enough of them. there i say that might change there's not enough of them. therethe ay that might change there's not enough of them. therethe election night change there's not enough of them. therethe election becauseinge after the election because we've been doing rather well in by elections the elections recently. and by the way if look the way, if you look at the by—election you will see by—election trend, you will see that swings to lib dems and that the swings to lib dems and seats been much seats we've won have been much greater than swings labour greater than swings to labour and i think there's there's and i think there's more there's more conservative prepared to switch to lib dems switch to switch to lib dems and switch to labour there's great labour and there's not a great deal of confidence in keir starmer. so . i starmer. i don't think so. i think we will do quite well for the election . but you know, the next election. but you know, you your question , you come back to your question, no, easy, an easy no, it wasn't an easy, an easy journey me, the end journey for me, but in the end you stand up for what you believe plant your believe in and you plant your

4:05 pm
clear soft touch policing which appears to be applied to marches with a more left wing bias. remember black lives matter. even during covid lockdowns, when people were banned from the streets. pop on a blm t—shirt and that's okay. then just stop oil holding up millions and police doing very little. and this latest crop of pro—palestine marches , which for pro—palestine marches, which for the last few weekends have been marred by chants from the river to the sea, which basically means death to all jews in israel. and calls for intifada and also jihad suella described these as hate marches and urged these as hate marches and urged the metropolitan police commissioner to stop them. but because suella didn't get the final draft of the piece in the paper signed off by rishi's team and ignored number ten's requests to remove a section which compared the pro—palestine marches with northern ireland on this triviality, which many would probably agree with. there are calls for her to resign and if successful , we must now have if successful, we must now have home secretary number. what is it? eight, nine, ten, 11. i've
4:06 pm
just lost count. where are we now ? and who does actually now? and who does that actually help ? if goes well, now? and who does that actually heljthe ? if goes well, now? and who does that actually heljthe labor? if goes well, now? and who does that actually heljthe labor party, goes well, now? and who does that actually heljthe labor party, of oes well, now? and who does that actually heljthe labor party, of course, l, it's the labor party, of course, who aptly joined in on the call. a cabinet minister instead of backing her up, claimed that she had embarrassed rishi and that she had lost it. had embarrassed rishi and that she had lost it . well, i'm sick she had lost it. well, i'm sick of it . somebody, somewhere needs of it. somebody, somewhere needs to tell them that suella braverman is saying what many of us are thinking . she speaks for us are thinking. she speaks for a large proportion of the population. her plain language on it of invasions and hate marches is the language of the ordinary man . she gives a voice ordinary man. she gives a voice in government to people like me, and frankly, she's one of the last things, if not the only thing the hope thing that is keeping the hope that have a shred that the tory party have a shred of conservativism alive. of conservativism left alive. but . the party are good at that. but. the party are good at that. they got rid of boris foolishly. if they were worried about being a few points behind in the polls, then take a look at where they are now. you can hardly say that was good decision that that was a good decision when capitulated to the when they capitulated to the mass pile on on boris. i can't be bothered to mention the

4:10 pm
party, well, she's not the only one that's done that. that may be mean, i mean, i think be true. i mean, i mean, i think you said in your in your monologue , nana she sang monologue, nana that she sang what a lot of people think that may is i'm sure that's may that is i'm sure that's true. problem she's the true. the problem is she's the home thing home secretary the key thing is, is crossed line is whether she crossed the line of interference with of political interference with the police by telling them what they should and, you know, telling they telling them what marches they should, how they should and shouldn't doing one shouldn't be doing it. it's one thing them to thing for her to hold them to account another account later, but it's another thing it thing to pre—empt that as it happens. happening is happens. what's happening is that is today. that sadiq khan is out today. there have been 82 arrests or roughly people , roughly 82 arrests of people, sort of protests . sort of far right protests. >> it was not fair to call them far it ? far right, is it? >> well, i think some of them are around are centred around tommy robinson, there. robinson, who seems to be there. but some of them but but the sort of some of them , absolutely. , you know, absolutely. the counter protests and now people on left , people saying this on the left, people saying this significantly to the left of me are like sadiq khan are all saying , oh, that's all a direct saying, oh, that's all a direct result suella words , which result of suella words, which is over she's over the top. but she's given them that opportunity. she's given . given them that oxygen. >> well, we've got some footage now. somebody protest now. somebody there in a protest who blood on his who sort of got blood on his face, his head. like
4:11 pm
face, on his head. he looks like maybe counter maybe one of the counter protesters do maybe one of the counter prot not rs do maybe one of the counter prot not rs i do maybe one of the counter prot not rs i was do maybe one of the counter prot not rs i was talking do maybe one of the counter prot not rs i was talking to you not think i was talking to norman baker? the point that i made that they are made to him was that they are not go in on the not going to go in on the pro—palestinian because pro—palestinian protests because there's they're there's more of them. so they're going photographs of the going to take photographs of the pro—palestinian protests. but it looks they're more looks to me like they're more likely on the looks to me like they're more like right on the looks to me like they're more like right or on the looks to me like they're more like right or right on the looks to me like they're more like right or right wing the far right or the right wing or the protests and that's the counter protests and that's the counter protests and that's the point suella also made , the point that suella also made, that seems to be a that there seems to be like a two level policing, two tier level of policing, a soft touch when comes a soft touch when it comes to a more leaning protesters. soft touch when it comes to a more i'm ning protesters. soft touch when it comes to a more i'm not| protesters. soft touch when it comes to a more i'm not sure esters. soft touch when it comes to a more i'm not sure that's. soft touch when it comes to a more i'm not sure that those >> well, i'm not sure that those of us on would say that of us on the left would say that over decades over the over decades that people soft left people have been soft on left leaningwe're talking now >> but we're talking about now we're right now. >> but we're talking about now we' i! right now. >> but we're talking about now we' i! the right now. >> but we're talking about now we'ie the met right now. >> but we're talking about now we'ie the met got it now. >> but we're talking about now we'ie the met got things >> i think the met got things wrong few weeks of wrong in the first few weeks of these think they these protests. i think they rather the first one rather hoped that the first one was peaceful. the was going to be peaceful. the very was where they very first one was where they put the cenotaph i >> k really , you know, in >> and that really, you know, in the lead up to any time, particularly in the lead up to remembrance day, was completely wrong. >> it seems to me that the route that they've taken today. so the main pro—palestinian protest is not being allowed anywhere near the cenotaph or down whitehall, which actually the met were saying it could for a while. so
4:12 pm

4:14 pm
his government and therefore, now she'll have to she'll have to go. think i don't to go. what i think i don't think what i think and i don't to go. what i think i don't think shet i think and i don't to go. what i think i don't think she shouldk and i don't to go. what i think i don't think she shouldk and i think to go. what i think i don't thinkmove houldk and i think to go. what i think i don't thinkmove houldka nd i think to go. what i think i don't think move houldka wider1ink he'll move her in a wider reshuffle this coming week. i think, or in the next two weeks. he'll do he'll do it. he'll it will you won't get rid him will be you won't get rid of him in the 24 hours. will be you won't get rid of him in tbut 24 hours. will be you won't get rid of him in tbut it'd 24 hours. will be you won't get rid of him in tbut it'd be hours. will be you won't get rid of him in tbut it'd be madness she >> but it'd be madness if she goes, because ultimately they will be toast. remember she was sacked once already. will be toast. remember she was sac remember, ready. will be toast. remember she was sac remember, liziy. will be toast. remember she was sac remember, liz truss? and that was. >> and that was a bit of a trivial triviality as well. a lot of us, a lot us watching trivial triviality as well. a lot oihappened us watching trivial triviality as well. a lot oihappened there watching trivial triviality as well. a lot oihappened there watc beg what happened there will be thinking these are very some trivial they're trivial issues that they're being sacked on these are being sacked on and these are very important jobs they're doing. that they doing. and i think that they need about good need to think about the good of the they're doing the country when they're doing these as said, these things, because as i said, number eight, nine, ten, i totally know. i can't totally don't know. i can't be bothered there's bothered to look because there's so them. i just can't be so many of them. i just can't be bothered. but we need to question quiz. bothered. but we need to que maybe quiz. bothered. but we need to que maybe qui why? >> maybe we can. why? >> maybe we can. why? >> easy to rid >> why it's so easy to get rid of. don't is of. i don't think this is a sackable thing. this is sackable thing. i think this is something i think she something where i think she wants under wants to get sacked under because wants to because i think she wants to because i think she wants to because she wants to be the next leader of the tory party and the tory you know, leader of the tory party and the torthe you know, leader of the tory party and the torthe right you know, leader of the tory party and the torthe right there. you know, on the right there. >> know, the tory membership >> you know, the tory membership are they're conservative are well, they're conservative with absolutely liberal, with the absolutely liberal, unlike maybe some, you know, some the commentariat . so some of the commentariat. so i think she knows what she's
4:15 pm
doing. to the tory doing. she's playing to the tory gallery be gallery and she wants to be the next. fact, she's next. so she in fact, she's trying to say, at me, you trying to say, come at me, you know, to prove hard you and know, to prove how hard you and once that once you've got that in politics, the politics, whether it's the opposition government, opposition or the government, you , it's unsustainable. you know, it's unsustainable. and so she will have to go. >> there was interesting >> there was an interesting sketch, somebody i don't know whether it was on twitter or whatever suella whatever, but it was suella braverman. rishi braverman. she was holding rishi sunak was little sunak hand like he was a little child was a lot smaller child and he was a lot smaller than he probably than her, which he is probably to probably like to be fair, is probably like the way it together way they put it together was probably way , probably life size in a way, it's pretty accurate. proportionately and she was holding hand and was holding his hand and so she was his her child. his child. he was her child. well, i mean, that's she's he's either agree her and back either got to agree her and back her, which unlikely. her, which is unlikely. >> doesn't or >> but say it doesn't matter or he's of her. but he's got to get rid of her. but at saying at the moment he's saying nothing. and that's the problem is when there's a vacuum, that's what in politics, what happens in politics, because their two because everybody puts their two penny in. penny worth in. >> wise him to back >> isn't it wise for him to back her, though, because he needs her? >> i think if he wants to appeal to of the party, to the right of the party, that's the route he wants to go down. he will a of course he will alienate a lot of the more liberal tories, but they're but the more liberal tories, but theyproblem but the more liberal tories, but theyproblem with but the more liberal tories, but theyproblem with that but the problem with that is they don't want don't represent what people want in conservative government.
4:16 pm
don't represent what people want in soynservative government. don't represent what people want in soynservyour, government. >> so your, your, you're alienating people. alienating a couple of people. again, it again, this is why i called it a westminster because westminster bubble, because you're liberals you're alienating the liberals within party, which do not within your party, which do not represent majority of represent what the majority of your voters would i think your voters would want. i think if a record of success, if you had a record of success, he would to. he would be able to. >> rwanda. he would be able to. >> we're rwanda. he would be able to. >> we're listening rwanda. he would be able to. >> we're listening fnowia. he would be able to. >> we're listening fnow ,i. >> we're listening to it now, that's why. >> i we're expecting >> so i think we're expecting the about from the the judgement about from the supreme court about whether or not ahead not the rwanda plan can go ahead on the on wednesday. i think that's the key . i think all eyes key this week. i think all eyes will be on that. think if the will be on that. i think if the plan supreme court plan if the supreme court says yes it makes for it yes, it makes it harder for it to move it. if it says no, then clearly there's another reason to that to move it, which is that her flagship dead. to move it, which is that her fla(well, dead. to move it, which is that her fla(well, what dead. to move it, which is that her fla(well, what aboutad. to move it, which is that her fla(well, what about there's >> well, what about there's a european can't european country. i can't remember which one is that remember which one it is that has they aren't has just got their they aren't moving somewhere has just got their they aren't movito somewhere has just got their they aren't movito another somewhere else to another country. >> is going to be doing >> italy is going to be doing camps albania the germans camps in albania and the germans have their have just toughened up their policy looked at suella >> so they've looked at suella concept and said, yeah, do concept and said, yeah, we'll do that wrong with that and why? what's wrong with rwanda? isn't. albania is rwanda? there isn't. albania is nothing wrong with albania. if these ahead, they're these ideas go ahead, they're these ideas go ahead, they're the ones that put the well, i say we should channel say we should turn the channel islands know , because islands into, you know, because the don't the channel islands people don't want people to the want people to live on the channel. want people to live on the chai nel. but know, there >> i know, but you know, there between there in the channel, i
4:17 pm
think the problem the problem is very small. my house is very that's what everyone says. >> a but . >> i haven't got a room, but. the issue with rwanda is that it's going to be hugely expensive. >> it's because it's such a long way if people are in way away. if people are in albania literally going way away. if people are in albthe| literally going way away. if people are in albthe boat literally going way away. if people are in albthe boat are rally going way away. if people are in albthe boat are rally gput| off the boat and are being put in straight to our base. >> really issue >> it's not really the issue that too expensive. i think that it's too expensive. i think that's a smokescreen for the reality almost reality that i think it's almost almost would say that almost i actually would say that people are slightly racist by saying that they shouldn't to saying that they shouldn't go to rwanda racist as rwanda as they're racist as their terrible their rwanda is a terrible country, the people maybe country, had the people maybe been and different, been fair skinned and different, i genuinely i think that there's i genuinely there be something in there might be something in that. there's element that. >> there might be, because before you'd heard before you'd even heard anything, they were saying, oh, no, beautiful country anything, they were saying, oh, no, they beautiful country anything, they were saying, oh, no, they b(theiful country anything, they were saying, oh, no, they b(the facilities:ry and they have all the facilities there of there and they've got plenty of space people. would be space for people. it would be the most offputting for the most offputting thing for people the people who wanted to cross the channel they're people who wanted to cross the chann back they're people who wanted to cross the chann back somewhere they're going back somewhere near where they've , then going they've come from, then going somewhere island somewhere to some small island they're probably never go to . no they're probably never go to. no one ever goes anywhere. >> hundred but >> a few hundred people. but if the deterrent effect well, initially, then it will initially, then it will initially, will. if it initially, then it will . if it acts as a deterrent, then it will be a success for the
4:18 pm
government. the deterrent needs to numbers to happen because the numbers that are actually going to be there kind of there won't be enough to kind of get people out of hotels. get rid of people out of hotels. i how's the i think it's the how's the barge? now barge? is the barge now operational ? operational? >> so. but i think >> well, i hope so. but i think they've on >> well, i hope so. but i think theybarge on >> well, i hope so. but i think theybarge now. on >> well, i hope so. but i think theybarge now. but on >> well, i hope so. but i think theybarge now. but think on the barge now. but i think actually, don't think you actually, i don't think it's you know, because even though there's only 50 or how many people that can go rwanda, people that can go to rwanda, it's the that can it's the notion that you can send people somewhere else. so that well, that opens the door. well, that's the point that's what and that's the point that's what and that's the point that she's making. and i think she point, she makes a good point, as you've seen with other countries doing same thing. you've seen with other countries doing that's e thing. you've seen with other countries doing that's that'sg. i >> and that's that's what i mean. court says >> and that's that's what i meeon court says >> and that's that's what i meeon wednesday, court says >> and that's that's what i meeon wednesday, that'srrt says >> and that's that's what i meeon wednesday, that's clearly yes on wednesday, that's clearly a shot their arm. a big shot in their arm. >> should yes, >> well, they should say yes, because in of because saying of staying in of staying think they should staying in, i think they should say it say yes, because otherwise it does to smack slight bit does to me smack of a slight bit of racism, but let's . of racism, really. but let's. what think, though? gb what do you think, though? gb views gbnews.com or tweet me at gb lovely lizzie cundy gb news. the lovely lizzie cundy will be shortly once she will be here shortly once she gets let's gets through the traffic. let's hope. nana if hope. but i'm nana akua if you've coming up you've just tuned in, coming up to 19 minutes after 4:00. up next, it's for the great next, it's time for the great british debate this hour. and i'm suella right i'm asking what's suella right to the marchers to be to call for the marchers to be banned? to pull up banned? i've got to pull up right x asking you that

4:25 pm
i very good. i thought it was just very good. whereas she described pro—palestine marches, demonstrations hate marches. demonstrations as hate marches. shadow home secretary yvette cooper has called braverman out of all, whilst labour of control all, whilst labour leader starmer says that leader keir starmer says that rishi sunak is too weak to challenge her. even bravermans own party have against own party have turned against her with conservative mp bob neill position is now neill saying her position is now untenable. that's him. a untenable. well, that's him. a lot of other people would think that speaking lot of that she's speaking for a lot of british people . so for the great british people. so for the great british people. so for the great british i'm british debate this hour, i'm asking braverman asking, was suella braverman right describe the marches as right to describe the marches as hate ? well, joining me to hate filled? well, joining me to discuss former adviser for discuss this, former adviser for the dr. roger the bank of england, dr. roger gunho, former minister for europe, denis macshane, and political commentator peter spencen political commentator peter spencer. morning to all of spencer. good morning to all of you. i'm going to start with you. i'm going to start with you. macshane, you. denis macshane, good morning. good morning. good afternoon. we are. afternoon. well, there we are. >> it's heavy day today. >> it's a heavy day today. >> it's a heavy day today. >> now, dennis, what do you think? >> very simply, i'm delighted suella is there because since she's been home secretary, the labour gets wider and wider labour lead gets wider and wider and wider . today, i think is and wider. today, i think is a fantastic victory for britain .
4:26 pm
fantastic victory for britain. >> we were told you can't have a devil nation. we were told the capital was going to be in flames. we've had that wonderful british business over three, four, 500 years of peacefully demonstrating to big events and they've gone off reasonably well . the only extremists seem to be a handful of suella braverman fans who had to be arrested by the police and taken away the extreme right . i the police and taken away the extreme right. i think she's great calling them the extreme right. >> they're not necessarily these well, we don't know yet. >> we don't know. >> we don't know. >> they're counter—protest. well, the police police are going said. going on what the police said. >> that >> and they made very clear that these people were there a these people were there for a political . political motivation. >> they talking about peace. they weren't talking about >> they weren't talking about israel. >> they weren't talking about israand you can see this right >> and you can see this right now, dennis, is you're talking i can see someone chanting from the river sea all this. >> well, the point about this offensive the river to the offensive from the river to the sea age old zionist claim. sea is an age old zionist claim. >> read likud , the most >> if you read likud, the most right wing the parties in right wing of the parties in israel their number israel, it's in their number article number one its article number one of its constitution . from the river to constitution. from the river to the sea was always was what
4:27 pm
jewish scientists , israelis jewish scientists, israelis wanted. they could have all the land from the jordan to in century history. >> no, no, you might be quoting history, but also not history. very recent history. >> you might be saying that. >> but you might be saying that. but that the jewish but we know that the jewish people it deeply offensive. but we know that the jewish peope it deeply offensive. but we know that the jewish peop think it deeply offensive. but we know that the jewish peop think onieeply offensive. but we know that the jewish peop think on that .y offensive. but we know that the jewish peop think on that basis nsive. and i think on that basis already, much. dr. already, it's too much. dr. roger well, i think that , roger gewolb well, i think that, first of all, what you said, dennis, with respect is ridiculous . ridiculous. >> but moving on, i think that i think suella i think that suella we won't know whether she was we won't know whether she was right until the end of today. and the march is over. but it does it does look quite peaceful . the does look quite peaceful. the problem is that the march is basically all about demand . a basically all about demand. a ceasefire, fire. and i don't know how in the world you can have a ceasefire with an enemy that says they want to do this again and again. i haven't that says they want to do this again and again . i haven't heard again and again. i haven't heard anyone else say this, but you might as well have a march
4:28 pm
tomorrow demanding that zelenskyy stop fighting putin because the two situations are identical . identical. >> and the other thing is, rogen >> and the other thing is, roger, when someone describes something as hate filled, just because it's going along peacefully doesn't mean that it's not full of hate. so when people are chanting from the river sea and that, river to the sea and all that, not just they're doing river to the sea and all that, ncin ust they're doing river to the sea and all that, ncin what they're doing river to the sea and all that, ncin what appears1ey're doing river to the sea and all that, ncin what appears1ey're a)ing it in what appears to be a peaceful way, it doesn't mean that you . that they don't hate you. >> i'm correct . and the police >> i'm correct. and the police are not doing anything about it, whereas they are being, as suella says , being very forceful suella says, being very forceful with the edl. >> well, that's i mean , that's >> well, that's i mean, that's what i'm saying. but peter spencen what i'm saying. but peter spencer, am i wrong ? spencer, am i wrong? >> well, i mean , i think the >> well, i mean, i think the real thing is that suella braverman, it was not her call. >> whether this these this protest took place or not any more than it was rishi sunak the police in uk have operational independence in contrast. >> so we say to france , where >> so we say to france, where where monsieur blot is told what to do by the politicos and the
4:29 pm
police decides and hopefully it will turn out to be rightly that there was not enough evidence to ban the pro—palestinian march that said , i don't actually that said, i don't actually think that anything that suella braverman has said or done recently has anything much to do with palestine or israel for that matter. >> it's to do with her bid for the leadership . she has staked the leadership. she has staked a claim very firmly on the right of the party. i suspect predicated on the assumption that the polls are right. >> the labour party will sorry, the labour party will get a get a clear victory at the next election . election. >> sunak will step down and she can step into the frame as as as the candidate, the right wing candidate with the tory party membership and given that they generally are to the right of the of the overall electorate, there's a very good chance she would actually win. what this does to the tory party , i does to the tory party, i suspect, is we've heard voices from either side supporting or opposing her. what i suspect
4:30 pm
that the tory party always traded as a broad church, but i think what we're looking at here is something closer to the temple in the bible . after temple in the bible. after samson had done his stuff . samson had done his stuff. >> i think that's well, dennis well, i was in spain last weekend and there's a huge row there because the socialist prime minister won the election in july. >> the conservatives tried to block him being invested as prime minister. that's normal politics. he's relying on the votes of six catalan mps . think votes of six catalan mps. think of them as northern irish. >> very, very simple, right? >> very, very simple, right? >> get to the point. >> get to the point. >> the conservative party organised a mass demonstration . organised a mass demonstration. violence firebombs. the police waited outside. my point is that if this demo was in france , if this demo was in france, they'd be using water cannons. >> it wouldn't happen in france. >> it wouldn't happen in france. >> no, no >> it wouldn't happen in france. >> 110, “0 l >> they would have. no, no, no, they don't. >> that's. >> that's. >> know france very well. >> i know france very well. >> i know france very well. >> band their band. >> band their band. >> they some are not all. >> they some are not all. >> no, pro—palestinian >> no, no, no. pro—palestinian marches >> no, no, no. pro—palestinian ma absolutely untrue . they say, >> absolutely untrue. they say, daddy, that they daddy, you mustn't say that they are banned. >> not to protest

4:54 pm
can't just use someone else's information session and get going . the problem is he feels going. the problem is he feels that he can do it now, but the male group feel that it's at least six years too late , so he least six years too late, so he can't do it now . so that's the can't do it now. so that's the fault. and the male has got to come in with enough vavavoom i suppose you could call it that . suppose you could call it that. harry can't beat that . but i was harry can't beat that. but i was thinking, you know , is he going thinking, you know, is he going to come over? is there going to be another problem about protection? is it going to cost all the taxpayers a load of money? and what about his visa as well? >> in america, all of that? >> in america, all of that? >> well, that hasn't happened. you see, it doesn't seem to have had a visa . he's there now. this had a visa. he's there now. this is one of the things where he doesn't want to a prince doesn't want to be a prince in royal and work, but yet he royal terms and work, but yet he wants to have all the advantages. well, the issues , advantages. well, the issues, whether he admitted about the drug taking on the visa is what one thing it, well, it's one thing about it, well, it's not . not over. >> it's not over. >>— >> it's not over. >> no, it isn't. >>— >> no, it isn't. >> that's bubbling under the
4:55 pm
surface. yes . surface. really yes. >> i think people need to sit down and do these things not to keep it bubbling away. it's just not it it's not right. and he is very, very against his brother , very, very against his brother, which is awful. and william made a very strange comment that he feels is very empowered , made by feels is very empowered, made by where he went and trying to save the country and save all that . the country and save all that. but he said he's now decided that he's going to do much more than the royal family have done so far. and he wants to build houses and he wants to get them to work. and people in there and living comfortably . and that living comfortably. and that would be in the land that king charles had before he became king. and he passed it on to william and i think that it was a rather an appropriate time to say that that and i think as well that it we don't really want fights as to who's doing

5:17 pm
5:18 pm
5:19 pm
michael portillo gb news britain's news channel . britain's news channel. >> good afternoon. this is gb news. we are the people's channel. i'm nana akua . it's channel. i'm nana akua. it's coming up to 20 minutes after 5:00. return to london 5:00. let's return to london where major policing operations is underway . nearly 2000 police is underway. nearly 2000 police officers have been deployed across the city for what's said to be one of the biggest political marches in british
5:20 pm
history. and now joining me is gb news security editor gb news home and security editor mark white to give me the latest live westminster . mark, live from westminster. mark, what's is what's the atmosphere like? is it still peaceful . it still peaceful. >> it's been a bit tense and volatile in places we've seen a few flashpoints here in the last hour or so. i'm not putting the light on because that just attracts the idiots and going to step out of way of the step out of the way of the camera. give you a look camera. just to give you a look down towards parliament square there. and what we saw just in there. and what we saw just in the last hour was is some of the pro—palestinian protesters who have broken away from that protest early, probably to go home and to use westminster tube station. but in doing that, it has ignited some of the tensions amongst the counter protesters who are still here, not in many significant numbers , but they're significant numbers, but they're still here at the moment. so we had a bit of a flashpoint about ten, 15 minutes ago that was
5:21 pm
contained by the police force and those counterprotest fighters. i can't really see too many of them. there's1 fighters. i can't really see too many of them. there's 1 or 2 still hanging about here, but most of them seem to have dispersed at this point. as you can see here, lots in the way of police vehicles still here because there is a concern that when the main body of the protest shut down at the us embassy, which should have finished by now, it was given till 515 to end and then start dispersing the concern was that some of those that might be bent on trouble would come to this area. they know, of course , that area. they know, of course, that the senator, for instance , the senator, for instance, remains sealed off the pro—palestinian protesters will not be allowed near the cenotaph . but for the moment, this road here is open again and they are being allowed to here get their
5:22 pm
tubes home. but but as i say, there is a volatile mix because every now and again, you will get the pro—palestinian protesters coming face to face with those counter—protesters words are exchanged. sometimes there's a bit of pushing and shoving and the police intervene and but nothing serious in terms of the violence that we've seen before. in fact , if you . yeah. before. in fact, if you. yeah. someone i think mistaking us for another news channel. but moving over this side now just dodging the traffic here at the moment because it is , as i say, opening because it is, as i say, opening up now. so they're letting people across here. so it's a bit risky. just just now to try and cross give us a right. let's go . i just want to take you over go. i just want to take you over the other side because over the other side of the square is
5:23 pm
where there are still a few of the counter protesters that have refused to go home. not many, as i say, probably a few dozen or so. and you can see here at this side, lots of the pro—palestinian protesters who are now making their way home early . i are now making their way home early. i wouldn't are now making their way home early . i wouldn't even are now making their way home early. i wouldn't even begin to guess at how many turned out for this protest today. but that march which just snaked on for a long, long time , so many tens of long, long time, so many tens of thousands , without a doubt, will thousands, without a doubt, will leave it up to others to guess at what the exact number is or even the organisers to confirm that with us. but you can see many of those protesters now heading down this way to make their way home at the end of the day. and over the other side . day. and over the other side. bnp yeah , so over this side just bnp yeah, so over this side just come through this way. so we'll take you through . here this is
5:24 pm
take you through. here this is the other side. now, just off in parliament square on main parliament square on main parliament square on main parliament square itself just over the other side there. and i'd you know, they're still contained within that area at the moment . contained within that area at the moment. in fact, contained within that area at the moment . in fact, the police the moment. in fact, the police just running now down towards that end of parliament square . i that end of parliament square. i don't think we'll be able to get through there, but it has a it has the potential, of course . has the potential, of course. can we get through, officer? no no, go down that way. yeah. okay, fine . let's go down this okay, fine. let's go down this way. under the police. don't want to let us through there while they're dealing with a potential situation . but again, potential situation. but again, it's it seems to be a group of pro—palestinian presenters further down at that end of the square who have congregated there . and that's where the there. and that's where the police are running to. so certainly tensions tense here. it's got the potential all to become a bit more lively. but for the moment, the police have
5:25 pm
things contained there. >> mark, that's mark white is live there in westminster at the pro—palestinian march . well, pro—palestinian march. well, listen, i wanted you to meet this gentleman because i saw him and thought i must speak him and thought i must speak to him myself. studio myself. joining me in the studio is a lot about is someone who knows a lot about radicalisation. he's a counter extremism in his own extremism expert in his own right who formerly supported hamas been hamas and has been de—radicalised the de—radicalised condemning the organisation. suhail ahmed joins me live in the studio. well, i mean , okay, so first of all, how mean, okay, so first of all, how did you find yourself supporting or being part of hamas? well i just to make clear from the get 90, just to make clear from the get go, i was never a member of hamas, but i was an ardent supporter of hamas. >> unfortunately , my, my >> unfortunately, my, my radicalisation journey, unfortunate , only started at the unfortunate, only started at the mere age of six, and that was as a result of my parents feeding me with the ideological poison of islamism . i was taught to
5:26 pm
of islamism. i was taught to hate non—muslims . i was taught hate non—muslims. i was taught that britain is the enemy , that that britain is the enemy, that the west is the enemy . all that the west is the enemy. all that there is a never ending war between muslims and non—muslims , between muslims and non—muslims, that violent jihad is an obugafion that violent jihad is an obligation on every muslim . obligation on every muslim. that's what i was raised with. and unfortunately , that's what i and unfortunately, that's what i believed in at and kind of growing up that that kind of snowballed . and unfortunately, snowballed. and unfortunately, as particular juncture, i, i as particularjuncture, i, i even began considering violence is really and you grew up in this country. yes i was born in london, this country where they were radicalising you themselves i >> -- >> do you have any other brothers and sisters ? brothers and sisters? >> of them are >> i do. and most of them are also radicalised. and i was also being radicalised by the mosque that i was attending. wow >> and so and that would take a form of it. was that a mosque leader telling everybody or what was the form that that. >> that be >> so essentially that would be dunng >> so essentially that would be during friday sermons during
5:27 pm
sermons outside of the friday usual sermons . that's the kind usual sermons. that's the kind of form it took . i also kind of of form it took. i also kind of went online and kind of self radicalise as well. um kind of looking at photos that were written by islamic scholars , written by islamic scholars, usually from saudi arabia or elsewhere in the middle east. >> what is a fatwa? >> what is a fatwa? >> a fatwa being a religious edict now in the west, know edict now in the west, we know of fatwas as being kind of like death sentence or something like that. but a fatwa is essentially just a religious edict. >> okay? and now i want to ask you then, how did you because you're obviously not supporting hamas now. >> absolutely not. >> absolutely not. >> how did you get out of it? and what do your family still support them in the way that they made you support them ? they made you support them? >> i wouldn't be able to talk for my family at this stage because i've not spoken to them in in eight years since i left
5:28 pm
home in terms of kind of the radicalised version, it essentially . only the way in essentially. only the way in which i got into and out of supporting hamas was by understanding biological evolution . i was always kind of evolution. i was always kind of like the scientist and i, i when i understood that, i realised that this scientific theory contradicted some of my extremist beliefs, not only that, i saw the rank hypocrisy amongst islamists, amongst my fellow co—religionists of the islamist pursue vision. they were completely hypocritical. they would attack hindus, they would attack christians, they would attack christians, they would attack christians, they would attack jews and say the most horrible things about them . most horrible things about them. yet when anyone would ever say anything slightly against islam, even if it was a genuine criticism , they'd cry criticism, they'd cry islamophobia . and they they they
5:29 pm
islamophobia. and they they they basically say that individuals are bigot . there were other are bigot. there were other hypocrisies . for instance, they hypocrisies. for instance, they were against the us invading iraq after 911. yeah but within the ideology they believed that there should be total complete world domination by military means . means. >> see, when you see these marches and things and suella braverman describing it as hate filled , is she right in your filled, is she right in your view, and are the west being somewhat naive, calling for a ceasefire or partially suella braverman is in fact correct , braverman is in fact correct, but i'm assuming that not everyone in the march because i did see some individuals wearing poppies. >> however, it may be a minority, but it was a very significant minority , a minority significant minority, a minority that was large enough to be very concerning for all of us. and we saw openly , brazenly, not in
5:30 pm
saw openly, brazenly, not in this particular protest, but in the previous ones, people waving the previous ones, people waving the black standard flag, which is a jihadist flag and screaming jihad, jihad and saying bigoted things against non—muslims. jihad, jihad and saying bigoted things against non—muslims . and things against non—muslims. and there were calls for muslim armies to come together and wipe israel off the map . and that israel off the map. and that i would kind of say to anyone who's not an islamist , who was a who's not an islamist, who was a part of that protest or the protest today , i'd kind of protest today, i'd kind of advise or kind of caution and say , be very careful of who you say, be very careful of who you get into in bed with and be very careful because you absolutely have no idea who you're dealing with. i know who we're dealing with. i know who we're dealing with because i used to be one of them. i used to attend pro—palestine marches and
5:31 pm
honestly , there was always honestly, there was always a very significant islamist jihadist extremist presence . and jihadist extremist presence. and i don't say that lightly. it's honestly the truth . and i think honestly the truth. and i think everyone can see that. and i think some people are trying to deny what they're seeing. >> i think a lot of people are trying say, it's fair trying to say, oh, it's all fair and but and soft and everything, but just they're not just because they're not violently , i urge violently protesting, i urge people listen to what you're people to listen to what you're saying. yes. because you obviously understand ideals obviously understand the ideals and mindset of people who support this organisation . and support this organisation. and obviously, a lot of the underlying tensions within the pro—palestine march . i want to pro—palestine march. i want to ask you about the cease fires now, because the west mostly are calling for cease fires or pauses in the fighting . is this pauses in the fighting. is this a wise thing? because obviously everyone cares about what's happening to the young people in gaza and the people dying there. but the only reason it's not happening in israel is because the dome , indeed, it's
5:32 pm
the iron dome, indeed, it's incredibly sad. >> what's happening in gaza. it really is . anyone who cares really is. anyone who cares about human life is kind of going to feel something wrong. but you have to realise that israel is faced with two kind of two options and they're both evil in a sense. one is, is that you go after hamas and degrade their capability and try to neutralise them as far as possible. and in the process severely casualties occur and civilian mortalities happen . or civilian mortalities happen. or we let we let it go complete ceasefire we let hamas regrow and the next attack will be much worse . those are the two options worse. those are the two options we're left with now when it comes to israeli strategy and tactics, i may have criticisms of them in specific cases , but of them in specific cases, but when it comes to a complete ceasefire, i am absolutely not
5:33 pm
in support of that. as for temporary cease fires to allow humanity an aid in that i can support, what does it say? >> i could talk to you for ages and i will invite you back again, because you to again, because i'd love you to be part my at some again, because i'd love you to be parwe'll1y at some again, because i'd love you to be parwe'll1y yourt some again, because i'd love you to be parwe'll1y you inome again, because i'd love you to be parwe'll1y you in t0|e point, we'll invite you in to discuss because this discuss more because this is going go on for going on and it will go on for some you much for some time. thank you so much for sharing . well, sharing your experience. well, hopefully to hopefully that was useful to a lot you listening and lot of you listening and watching suhail ahmed, watching because suhail ahmed, he , he was he of course, he was de—radicalised and he condemns hamas and those are his views. what do you think? you're with me. i'm nana akua. this is gb news online and on digital news on tv online and on digital radio. so coming up, it's time news on tv online and on digital radthe'yo coming up, it's time news on tv online and on digital radthe great|ing up, it's time news on tv online and on digital radthe great british it's time news on tv online and on digital radthe great british debate|e for the great british debate this asking, are this hour. and i'm asking, are the wise call for the west wise to call for humanitarian pauses in gaza? and is to allow for is israel wise to allow for these pauses in the fight against hamas? you'll hear the thoughts of my panel and also the thoughts of our voices. but first, let's get your latest news with . aaron news with. aaron >> it is 533. good evening to

5:41 pm
there's a big difference between them. be them. and one would not be sensible and one would be sensible. i don't believe that a ceasefire work because it's ceasefire will work because it's basically saying israel can't defend itself. well that's where they were now. >> that's where before >> that's where they were before the attack. >> things were frozen. i >> yeah, things were frozen. i do strongly in do believe strongly in humanitarian pauses. so do i think most sensible people, the american government, for instance, is the strongest instance, which is the strongest supporter of israel you can imagine, very clear. there imagine, is very clear. there needs humanitarian pauses needs to be humanitarian pauses as i think it will do the cause. israel's cause world opinion. as i think it will do the cause. islot.'s cause world opinion. as i think it will do the cause. islot ofcause world opinion. as i think it will do the cause. islot of good. world opinion. as i think it will do the cause. islot of good. so world opinion. as i think it will do the cause. islot of good. so i)rld opinion. as i think it will do the cause. islot of good. so i think)inion. a lot of good. so i think they're right to be moving towards, at the very least, these four hour pauses to allow more and to allow people more aid in and to allow people to to north the to move from the to north the south of gaza, which is what they've been very clear about, where going to where their attack is going to be going. >> you had three weeks to be going. >> to you had three weeks to be going. >> to you that. :hree weeks to be going. >> to you that.:hree w(it's to know to do that. i know it's tough, that tough, but they had all that time , won't it? surely time, won't it? surely emblazoned , lizzie, to emblazoned hamas, lizzie, to give them more time. >> he vegetarian pauses usually means getting food and aid to the civilians but to hamas they are funding themselves. and that is the truth of it. they're only helping themselves and aid, you know, israel. i think . well,
5:42 pm
know, israel. i think. well, they're doing everything under international law, in my eyes. and i'm sorry for those that i witnessed today chanting for a ceasefire. they are saying this with ignorance because how can there be a ceasefire you know, hamas have got a gun to the heads of 300 and 237 hostages still all. and there was a ceasefire before the 7th of october. this war could be stopped if they gave back the hostages . but we're stopped if they gave back the hostages. but we're dealing stopped if they gave back the hostages . but we're dealing with hostages. but we're dealing with a death cult, which is hamas. can we negotiate with terrorists? can we believe anything they'll say and do? no, we can't . and that's the thing we can't. and that's the thing people understand . and people don't understand. and that's of the people that that's a lot of the people that are don't are on the marches today don't get . get. >> well. that's what i was saying, that the mindset are saying, that the mindset we are not within that mindset. we don't understand the way these people think and they care people think and they don't care . just care. . they just don't care. >> to people . mean, >> talking to people. i mean, what is what we haven't mentioned is i don't know you've this don't know if you've seen this extraordinary week extraordinary footage this week where person where some very clever person went just asked very simple went and just asked very simple questions to people on last week's and two of them
5:43 pm
week's march and two of them just didn't really understand who mean, it's who hamas were. i mean, it's worth looking at online because people marching and people are just marching and saying they don't saying things that they don't understand it's understand when it's such a complicated so complicated situation. so i mean, people calling for ceasefire that by calling ceasefire think that by calling for that they're for ceasefire, that they're going to solve the problem. and clearly they're nobody going to solve the problem. and clearly trimages nobody going to solve the problem. and clearly trimages of nobody going to solve the problem. and clearly trimages of what's' likes the images of what's happening in gaza in the americans have said that they're worried that too many palestinian being killed. palestinian are being killed. so what humanitarian what we need is humanitarian pauses, will enable aid to pauses, which will enable aid to get in, but also enable gazans to move, but ultimately will help the cause of israel because they they they will be seen to be doing the right thing. they they they will be seen to be do 1g the right thing. they they they will be seen to be do you1e right thing. they they they will be seen to be do you know1t thing. they they they will be seen to be do you know1t thirreally >> do you know what really annoys they annoys me here is that they have the hostage have the hostage is hamas have the hostages could hostages which they could release should release hostages which they could release reason should release hostages which they could release reason whyyuld release hostages which they could release reason why israel lease hostages which they could release reason why israel does the only reason why israel does not look like gaza because of not look like gaza is because of the they they're the iron dome. so they they're receiving all the time receiving missiles all the time and everyone's going, oh, it's like, been like, no, hold on. this has been happening israel before happening to israel before this conflict. that's why they conflict. and that's why they built dome. so i'm getting built the dome. so i'm getting a bit they're saying all the death and in gaza, it's and destruction in gaza, it's awful. that that and destruction in gaza, it's awful. that be that and destruction in gaza, it's
5:44 pm
awful. that be whatt and destruction in gaza, it's awful. that be what israel would that would be what israel would that would be what israel would look like had it not been for defence system. for their defence system. >> done to >> and hamas have done this to their own people, to the palestinians. know, they are palestinians. you know, they are hiding schools, hiding, hiding under schools, hiding, you know , under hospitals. hamas you know, under hospitals. hamas are the problem. hamas could stop this now, right now , but stop this now, right now, but they won't they will not give back. the hostages and israel have every right to defend themselves. >> and i completely agree with israel's right to defend itself. israel's right to defend itself. i think that as the i just think that as the american government does that, you think the you know, and i think the british as well, british government does as well, which they should be humanitari pauses to enable people to move from from the north to the south of but also, of course, of gaza, but also, of course, eqypt of gaza, but also, of course, egypt needs the egypt needs to keep the rafah crossing open . but egypt don't crossing open. but egypt don't want hamas. >> they don't want hamas . they >> they don't want hamas. they don't want them. >> they don't want hamas. they dorobviously, m. >> they don't want hamas. they dor obviously, m. now >> they don't want hamas. they dorobviously, m. now seen >> obviously, we've now seen this quite lot of people this week quite a lot of people with passports . with international passports. it's going rafah it's going over the rafah crossing. not crossing. but egypt is not allowing basically who allowing anybody basically who lives permanently to lives in gaza permanently to cross that. so it's a complicated situation. it's not all israel's are thinking this is a weakness in israel and they will it in every way they
5:45 pm
can. >> well, it's terrorists. >> well, it's terrorists. >> well, it's terrorists. >> well, let's see what our viewers think, because the show is nothing without let's is nothing without them. let's welcome our great british voices, be voices, their opportunity to be on tell what on the show. tell us what they think about the topics we're discussing. i've got discussing. so today, i've got three of you i want for your i'm going to start with you, brian dooganin going to start with you, brian doogan in solihull. brian >> hi, nana um, there's simply no alternative but to allow for humanitarian pauses. um, civilians need to be protected. there needs to be a scale up in the humanitarian response. >> more than 11,000 people killed since israel launched counter attack after the terrible atrocities that happened on october 7th and was instigated by hamas, a child is killed in gaza on average . every killed in gaza on average. every ten minutes. >> yeah , the main hospital, the >> yeah, the main hospital, the al—shifa hospital, is besieged . al—shifa hospital, is besieged. there's no power , no medicine, there's no power, no medicine, no . water there are 500 patients no. water there are 500 patients there. nana and there are
