honourables, but some of the behaviour displayed by commons cohorts in recent years makes me think they should be called right wrong'uns instead said. just a fortnight ago, conservative mp william wragg played the victim when it was revealed he not only shared explicit pictures of himself on a gay dating app with an unknown person he'd never met, leaving himself blackmail. himself open for blackmail. by the . but he then tried to the way. but he then tried to worm his way out of the foolish predicament by over the predicament by handing over the phone other phone numbers of dozens of other mps and parliamentary staffers so they, too, could be snared in a honey trap sixteen plot. he never , sorry. he did apologise, never, sorry. he did apologise, of course, he told the times newspaper . of course, he told the times newspaper. i'm so of course, he told the times newspaper . i'm so sorry. my newspaper. i'm so sorry. my weakness has caused other people hurt . well, isn't that noble? hurt. well, isn't that noble? but in 2022, tory mp chris pincher, the man who broke the camel's back when it came to bofis camel's back when it came to boris johnson's resignation, lived up to his when was lived up to his name when he was found to have drunkenly groped two men at a posh private members club in london. other allegations from allegations also surfaced from separate incidents last year, the then conservative mp peter

bone, was found by an independent regulator to have repeatedly hit and verbally abused a member of his staff, often asking him for massages and on one occasion putting his bare genitals in the other man's face. bone insists the allegations never took place, and of course, that he says they're false and untrue. but who can forget this weasel as well ? matt hancock, the covid well? matt hancock, the covid era health secretary here proving an honest and trustworthy individual by cheating on his wife, betraying his family and also the public in the process in the offices. don't forget of the department for health. it's not all tory mps, by the way, who can forget keith teflon vaz, the married father of two labour mps suspended from parliament in 2019 after offering to buy cocaine for rent. boys, if you don't remember, he tried to disguise his real identity by saying he was a washing machine salesman called jim. fast forward to today, then , where forward to today, then, where tory mp mark menzies is under investigation for allegedly

using thousands of pounds from party donors to pay for private expenses. party donors to pay for private expenses . according to the expenses. according to the times. the government trade envoy rang an elderly local party volunteer at 315 in the morning in december, saying he was locked out of his flat by bad people and he needed £5,000 as a matter of life or death . as a matter of life or death. the sum mysteriously rose to six and a half grand later on, and was actually paid by his office manager from local party coffers, the paper reports. a further £14,000 given by donors for use on the tory campaign trail had previously been transferred to menzies personal bank account and used for his private medical expenses. the conservative party has been aware of the allegations of potential fraud for more than three months, yet took no action until today when they suspended him in a statement to the times, mr menzies said i strongly dispute the allegations put to me. i have fully complied with all the rules declarations all the rules for declarations as there's an ongoing investigation. i be investigation. i will not be commenting further. investigation. i will not be commenting further . but look, commenting further. but look, it's menzies's first rodeo,

it's not menzies's first rodeo, is it? in 2014, he was at the centre of a sex for money scandal. rogerio santos , 19, a scandal. rogerio santos, 19, a brazilian rent boy, told the sunday mirror that the mp had paid him for sex and asked him to buy drugs . he denied the to buy drugs. he denied the claims but resigned as a ministerial aide regardless, and three years later menzies was interviewed by cops over, frankly, a quite bizarre accusation that he deliberately got a friend's dog drunk. that's right, a dog. the pooch needed emergency treatment at the vets for alcohol poisoning. our parliamentarians are meant to be the best of society. the reality is, most of them can only be described as low grade. and that's , quite frankly, being that's, quite frankly, being generous. if they're not carrying a whole load of sexual baggage around, they're typically that typically so incompetent that rarely they ever get a job rarely would they ever get a job at a top ftse 100 company. or let's be honest, survive two minutes world with minutes in the real world with real people taking on real challenges. is this best we challenges. is this the best we can really do? and has the conservative party in particular

got a sleaze problem that urgently needs addressing ? i'm urgently needs addressing? i'm joined now by former tory mp neil parish , who actually neil parish, who actually himself resigned as an mp in 2022 after watching porn on his phonein 2022 after watching porn on his phone in the commons. good evening neil, thank you for joining me. so look, let's just clear up your situation. first of all, can you just remind viewers about your self—described madness self—described moment of madness in the commons that led to your resignation? then we speak resignation? then we can speak about and tories about menzies and the tories on about menzies and the tories on a scale. you don't mind i >> -- >> yeah. i mean, i look twice at porn on my phone, the first time i went into the site , i went into the site, accidentally for the second time, i went in on purpose . and time, i went in on purpose. and that's why i resigned from the house of commons, because the behaviour was bad, i mean it my behaviour was bad, i mean it my behaviour was bad, i mean it my behaviour was very bad inasmuch that it was very bad to myself. i did not intend to do anybody else any offence, but it was wrong. i was doing, and i wrong. what i was doing, and i think that's the distinction i would make . but i don't justify would make. but i don't justify my actions and that's why i

resigned so quickly. >> got it. and just just sorry. last question on this matter. why were you watching porn? were you the commons? what you bored in the commons? what was going through head? >> yeah. n head? >> yeah. i think some >> yeah. i mean, i think some people think, know, was people think, you know, it was in a debate or in the middle of a debate or a middle of question time. it was 1130 and had a 12 1130 at night, and we had a 12 votes were waiting. i was votes and we were waiting. i was right corner of right in the corner of the chamber. it's probably an argument whether was argument as to whether i was actually or not, actually in the chamber or not, but, you know , i did, and but, you know, i did, and i watched it and i resigned . so watched it and i resigned. so that was. >> yeah. all right. neil, thanks for clearing that up. i appreciate your honesty on the wider topic of, i mean, today, mark menzies, but is there a sleaze problem in the conservative party? why does it seem like so many politicians ? i seem like so many politicians? i mentioned some labour ones there as well, keith vaz there are others, particularly the others, but particularly the conservatives weeks. others, but particularly the cothere atives weeks. others, but particularly the cothere a ves weeks. others, but particularly the cothere a sleaze weeks. others, but particularly the cothere a sleaze problem eks. others, but particularly the cothere a sleaze problem with is there a sleaze problem with the tories? >> well, certainly there seems to have been sort of a run of things at the moment, and i think i mean, you quite rightly say that at the end of the day, the population often, you know, they in parliament to

they put us in parliament to pass is, you know, i was pass laws is, you know, i was a chair of a select committee, environment, food, rural affairs. you that job affairs. you took that job seriously . and so you they seriously. and so you they expect you to behave well . and i expect you to behave well. and i think, you know, this is a problem at the moment. there seems to be a number mps that seems to be a number of mps that haven't. and you see, the problem with mark in a way is and we have to wait to see what all that comes out. but you know, you can't use party donors, money, for your own expenses. that's an absolute no, no, and the whole thing seems bizarre . and i think, really, we bizarre. and i think, really, we need to know a lot more about it to find out exactly what happened. but again , it does happened. but again, it does bnng happened. but again, it does bring parliamentarians into disrepute . that's the problem. disrepute. that's the problem. >> okay. well, of course, mark denies those allegations . but as denies those allegations. but as you mentioned, his previous rap sheet, i mean, i read it this morning and it is something akin to a movie script . and of course to a movie script. and of course you had william wragg in recent weeks. that he weeks. i mean, the facts that he was to send explicit

was happy to send explicit pictures a complete random pictures to a complete random he'd never met on a gay dating app. i mean, that's bad enough, let alone his let alone dragging his colleagues but neil colleagues into it. but neil parish, thank you for joining us. again, appreciate you us. and again, i appreciate you talking own talking about your own situation, but let's the situation, but let's get the thoughts tonight's top thoughts now of tonight's top panel daily telegraph columnist allison pearson, former labour party matthew laza and party adviser matthew laza and gb news superstar presenter nana akua. allison, let's start with you. am i being a bit harsh here? is there a sleaze problem and why are there so many apparently sexual deviants in parliament? >> i don't think you could be too harsh, ben. quite honestly , too harsh, ben. quite honestly, this is one of the. we've all been laughing about this. it's one the most bizarre. one of the most bizarre. >> you giggling >> i heard you giggling during my what tickled you , my monologue. what tickled you, just this, mark just the story about this, mark menzies wandering around from flat to flat, ringing up elderly members of the conservative party to ask you they can him party to ask you if they can him five grand because he's mixing with as he said. i mean, with bad men as he said. i mean, the whole thing is farcical, i actually think it may be time to give the brazilian rent boys a

go. as members the tory go. as members of the tory party, couldn't party, because they couldn't do worse members . worse than the existing members. look, it's a combination, ben. you young. nana may be you are too young. nana may be too young. i think matthew and i are just about old enough. end of end of the john major. 18 of the end of the john major. 18 years of conservative government. it all ends in farce. in every week in farce. it ended in every week in 1997, before blair's landslide. we had some shame faced husband at the front gate of the house with the wife and kids. you know, the david mellor wearing a chelsea strip and sucking the toes of antonia de santa, i got that, that's right. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> so basically it's the end of it's the end of days now. it's ending in fast. it's the end of days now. it's ending in fast . this tory ending in fast. this tory government, i mean, you know, it's been 14 in the last. however many years, hasn't it. i mean, i on i'd be mean, ijust on i'd be interested to see what everyone thinks. is it that narcissistic , thinks. is it that narcissistic, reckless people are drawn towards politics because it seems to me what these men are doing is madness. it's personal madness , isn't it? madness, isn't it? >> matthew laza is there a case that mps pay? i mean, it went up to something like was it £93,000

in course. yeah in recent weeks? of course. yeah approved by an independent body. so their own so they didn't mark their own homework. there to homework. but is there a case to maybe increase k maybe increase it to 150 k a yean maybe increase it to 150 k a year, maybe even double it to kind get a better quality of kind of get a better quality of person? think i think person? well, i think i think that's to be a issue that's going to be a big issue because insisting because labour's insisting on its on second jobs, is its ban on second jobs, which is going a big issue if going to be a big issue if there's labour government. there's a labour government. >> to gone >> it seemed to have gone quiet for but come back for a while, but it's come back now there'll be a few now and so there'll be a few exceptions people like exceptions for people like doctors, to able to be able to doctors, to able to be able to do of do some work, but it's a sort of going hit who have going to hit those who have have big sidelines, geoffrey big sidelines, like geoffrey cox, general cox, the former attorney general who hundreds of thousands who makes hundreds of thousands as successful lawyer. but who makes hundreds of thousands adon't successful lawyer. but who makes hundreds of thousands adon't think:cessful lawyer. but who makes hundreds of thousands adon't think that'sil lawyer. but who makes hundreds of thousands adon't think that's going er. but i don't think that's going to affect the sort of what you might the moral compass. might call the moral compass. look, go into look, most politicians go into politics to the world politics to make the world a better whether they've better place, whether they've got a blue got a red rosette, a blue rosette colour rosette or a different colour rosette or a different colour rosette for the rosette on. they do it for the best but it's best of reasons, but it's a funny life, and i think it's funny old life, and i think it's a funny existence. you're 200 miles away from your family. if you have one. you know, most people sort of work people don't sort of start work in the afternoon and to 10:00 in the afternoon and go to 10:00 in the afternoon and go to 10:00 in where they have to in terms of where they have to be. know, i think be. but, you know, so i think what it is it just attracts

what it does is it just attracts people are risk people who are certain risk takers know, takers and i think, you know, you're to put yourself you're going to put yourself under of scrutiny. you've under a lot of scrutiny. you've got of out on got to sort of be out there on a friday afternoon talking to people but people about their problems. but also to be pointing also you've got to be pointing at you at potholes, and, you know, opening fade. so i opening the local fade. so i think does people who think what it does is people who are of are slightly sort of self—obsessed, go into politics because to do it. because you have to be to do it. i because you have to be to do it. | , because you have to be to do it. i , and that doesn't mean i mean, and that doesn't mean that you to up wringing that you have to end up wringing your year old, campaigner, your 78 year old, campaigner, former to get five former campaign aide to get five grand in the middle of the night, the scandal night, which is the scandal to earn all, describing as earn them all, describing it as a life. a strange old life. >> mean, allegedly doing that, >> i mean, allegedly doing that, roaming at 3 am, roaming the streets at 3 am, asking elderly party asking your elderly party manager thousands of pounds. manager for thousands of pounds. i think one say the least. >> i've never heard anything as bizarre as this before, no, no, you were your head at you were shaking your head at the increasing. you were shaking your head at the trying increasing. you were shaking your head at the trying defend:reasing. you were shaking your head at the trying defend:reasold. >> i'm trying to defend the old. >> i'm trying to defend the old. >> shouldn't get >> no, no, they shouldn't get more money. >> let me just tell you. my point the of point is, the quality of politicians we have, if they're not or not involved in sleaze or scandal, so incompetent. >> listen, first all, >> well, listen, first of all, i don't they should any don't think they should get any more money. i think 93,000 is what is is most people what it is now. is most people listening will think what it is now. is most people listeni a] will think what it is now. is most people listenia] salary. think what it is now. is most people listenia] salary. ihink what it is now. is most people listenia] salary. i also that's a good salary. i also don't they should a don't think they should have a second because not

that encourages them to appoint pupils as, quote, lgbt champions, asking kids as young as four if they're gay, lesbian or trans . the scheme is the or trans. the scheme is the brainchild of the taxpayer funded charity lgbt youth scotland, which charges schools up to two grand a pop for membership of its lgbt charter for education. so each school that joins must appoint at least two children as so—called lgbt champions, with schools also encouraged to ask pupils if they're gay, lesbian or trans. and to make matters even worse , and to make matters even worse, the schools are also asked to provide evidence of so—called lgbt safe spaces, such as gender neutral toilets . it comes as neutral toilets. it comes as scotland's only gender clinic today paused the prescription of puberty blockers after the cas report concluded that vulnerable kids had been given the harmful drugs based on, quote, weak evidence . so that long overdue evidence. so that long overdue decision brings scotland into line with england, where puberty blockers of course, been blockers have, of course, been banned year and banned since march this year and only after scottish first

minister yousaf dragged minister humza yousaf dragged his heels on the issue, leaving it up to the clinicians to decide what to do. so as scottish primary schools appoint kids as lgbt champions, is it wrong for pupils as young as four to be asked if they're gay, lesbian or trans ? let me know lesbian or trans? let me know your thoughts by heading to gbnews.com/yoursay or tweet me @gbnews while you're there. and why not vote poll? i'll why not vote in our poll? i'll bnng why not vote in our poll? i'll bring you those results in just a minutes. first, do a few minutes. but first, to do battle i'm joined by battle on this, i'm joined by the and journalist the trans teacher and journalist debbie and human rights debbie hayton and human rights activist peter, activist peter tatchell. peter, let's with you, my friend, let's start with you, my friend, four years old. is it okay to ask them if they're gay or trans? >> well, this is about an education programme in schools to combat bullying and prejudice . it's very much required because there are shocking levels of homophobia, biphobia and transphobia in scottish . and transphobia in scottish. schools. between 13 and 19% of all lgbt plus kids in scotland leave school prematurely because of the hostility they face. only

1 in 10 rate their school experience as good. so this is all about combating prejudice and bullying. it is not forcing anybody to do anything. the scheme is entirely optional. it's voluntary and no one is forced to participate. where it does take place, it takes place with the support and agreement of the pupils, primarily and almost entirely secondary school pupils, not primary school. okay. right. >> so let me just clarify. you are happy with asking four year old kids if they're gay, bi or trans. >> there's no evidence that that's searched to that's being done. i searched to try and find evidence of that. there's evidence that yes, there's no evidence that yes, there is. >> peter, let me let me tell you something, this is from lgbt something, lg this is from lgbt youth scotland's own documents. something, lg this is from lgbt youtcan:otland's own documents. something, lg this is from lgbt youtcan:otlaiti's own documents. something, lg this is from lgbt youtcan:otlait on )wn documents. something, lg this is from lgbt youtcan:otlait on theiriocuments. something, lg this is from lgbt youtcan:otlait on their website. 5. you can see it on their website. it's screen if it's on the screen now if anyone's watching it's anyone's watching at home, it's that says that the charity says 200 scottish secondaries, more than half the national total and half of the national total and over 40 primary schools, primary schools , being 4 or 5 six year schools, being 4 or 5 six year olds, have joined its lgbt charter for education. in the paperwork it says, quote, you

should consider asking pupils if they are the lgbt they are part of the lgbt community in order to establish whether bullying affects those pupils . do whether bullying affects those pupils. do you agree with whether bullying affects those pupils . do you agree with that? pupils. do you agree with that? >> peter tatchell i do not agree with four year olds or five year olds being asked those questions and indeed, that document is intended secondary levels, intended for secondary levels, not not primary. >> i've just said to you, it's 40 primary schools as well. debbie hayton questions are only for secondary school pupils and i would say that that is not appropriate for primary school. >> the lgbt youth scotland is pioneered by a principle of age appropriate education. >> okay, so they would not ask those questions of very young children. okay. well that's not what document says. but what the document says. but debbie me your debbie hayton, let me get your thoughts this. what do you thoughts on this. what do you make youth scotland make of this lgbt youth scotland and that are and the facts that they are potentially asking for five, six year to year olds whether they want to be or trans ? i'd argue year olds whether they want to be shouldn't:rans ? i'd argue year olds whether they want to be shouldn't be s ? i'd argue year olds whether they want to be shouldn't be asking argue year olds whether they want to be shouldn't be asking them or you shouldn't be asking them or even about even speaking to them about heterosexual relationships. let kids you to kids be kids. why do you want to talk about relationships talk about sex and relationships with kids? talk about sex and relationships witiwell, kids? talk about sex and relationships witiwell, you ds? talk about sex and relationships witiwell, you should letting

>> well, you should be letting children grow up if there's issues with bullying, let's deal with the bullying. we with the bullying. but we shouldn't be imposing any shouldn't be imposing on any children system that children this belief system that they've got to choose an identity, choose team which identity, choose a team in which to be a member of or be an ally of another team. these are children , and children need the children, and children need the space to grow. before start space to grow. before we start imposing adult adult ideas on them about relationships. let them about relationships. let them grow up first, please. peter what age is it? >> is it acceptable for you to start speaking to kids about whether they're gay, bi or trans? >> i would say at secondary level , because already by that level, because already by that age, some young people are aware that they're lgb or t, so what age is that? >> can you just confirm? sorry, what age would that be? second sort of 1011 1211 1112. >> but no one should be forced or pressured. this should be an opfion or pressured. this should be an option . they shouldn't be option. they shouldn't be actually asked the question. option. they shouldn't be actuashouldzd the question. option. they shouldn't be actuashould be :he question. option. they shouldn't be actua should be invited;tion. option. they shouldn't be actuashould be invited to»n. option. they shouldn't be actua should be invited to come they should be invited to come to classes and where lgbt issues are discussed. it's up to them whether they disclose it or not.

no one should be pressured, it should be entirely voluntary. this is not about indoctrination, indoctrination . indoctrination, indoctrination. this is about supporting lgbt+ kids in scotland who, as i said, get a very raw deal. there's so much bullying. we need to encourage understanding and acceptance to end that bullying. so educating young lgbt kids and young straight kids about that is a good way to do it, because the evidence shows that where this has this program has been implemented , lgbt+ kids feel implemented, lgbt+ kids feel much better about themselves. there's less bullying. they stay on longer at school, they don't feel forced to leave. so that's a win win win for everyone . a win win win for everyone. >> debbie hassan, same question to you as a trans woman, what is an acceptable age to start asking about sex and sexual relationships? >> well, i think you've said they're asking them about about sex and sexual relationships. what we should be teaching children at an appropriate age is about relationship and about those relationships. what worries me about, those relationships. what worries me about , the pack that worries me about, the pack that i've seen here is that it's asking children , where do you

asking children, where do you fit into this? and that's what we shouldn't be doing. that's not the role of schools. schools are to teach children , not are there to teach children, not to ask children, where do you where where do you fit where do you where do you fit into this now? which age? this is coming in at is a is a matter of conjecture. but my concern would be that too soon children feel obliged to pick a team, choose a choose a letter to identify with or support. that's what i'm concerned about. >> peter , as we've seen with the >> peter, as we've seen with the cass review and puberty blockers at the tavistock in england. you know, a lot of these young kids are confused , vulnerable, are confused, vulnerable, unhappy for various reasons. i mean, 35% of them at the tavistock were reported to have autism, for example. i just i'm concerned and worried that we're polluting kids minds with information on sex and, you know, relationships . not just know, relationships. not just trans or or gay relationships, any kind of sexual relationship. just let kids be kids. why can't what is it with adults who want to speak to kids about sex?

what's going on there? i just don't get it. it blows my mind . don't get it. it blows my mind. >> i agree primary school kids should not be discussing sex. and indeed, in my experience , and indeed, in my experience, the schools that i go into at primary level, they just talk about bodily changes at puberty, they talk about different kinds of families. some will be mum and dad, some will be same sex parents, some will be single parents. do not talk about parents. they do not talk about sex. that's scaremongering. quite rightly , sex is should be quite rightly, sex is should be off the agenda when it comes to the primary school pupils. but when it comes to secondary pupils , when they're older, pupils, when they're older, maybe 14, 15 or 16, we do have to talk about sex, about preventing unwanted pregnancies . preventing unwanted pregnancies. >> well, that's a different ball game. >> preventing stis and hiv , >> preventing stis and hiv, teaching young people about consent so that people are not pressured into sex, that people have a right to say no to sex. and those are the things that are being taught in schools in scotland and england and wales as well. and that's a good thing because it's all about young people's welfare. you want young

people's welfare. you want young people to happy, healthy people to have happy, healthy relationships. to end relationships. we want to end abuse. we want to end the unwanted pregnancies and sexually transmitted infections. those are not good things. and to avoid them, young people need education. >> okay. all right. peter, i'm glad. in all honesty, you agree that four year olds shouldn't be spoken to about whether they're gay, or trans. but the facts gay, bi or trans. but the facts speak for themselves. story speak for themselves. the story is because it's from this is true because it's from this charity's own paperwork. they are. are 40 primary are. there are 40 primary schools, children of 4 or 5 years, six year olds who are being spoken to by adults about whether they gay, bi or trans. it's an scandal and not it's an absolute scandal and not in school, ben. not not in primary school, ben. not not in primary school, ben. not not in primary school, ben. not not in primary school. peter read the paperwork . it's all there in the paperwork. it's all there in black and white. i don't know why saying that. it why you keep saying that. it doesn't school. doesn't say primary school. >> secondary school. >> does. i'm sorry, peter, it >> it does. i'm sorry, peter, it does. i've said you it does. does. i've said to you it does. it's schools and half it's 40 primary schools and half of nation's secondary of the nation's secondary schools. thank of the nation's secondary schcfor. thank of the nation's secondary schcfor. us. thank of the nation's secondary schcfor. us. debbieank of the nation's secondary schcfor. us. debbie hayes you forjoining us. debbie hayes , you being with , and appreciate you being with us. word from us. a quick word from the scottish they've scottish government. they've said whilst we said in a statement whilst we are doing are committed to doing

everything to can make everything we to can make scotland grow everything we to can make sccfornd grow everything we to can make sccfor lgbtqi+ grow everything we to can make sccfor lgbtqi+ young grow everything we to can make sccfor lgbtqi+ young people,w up for lgbtqi+ young people, this includes funding lgbt youth scotland to deliver a range of projects such as lgbt charter programme, very good, very good, we've reached out to lgbt youth scotland for comment, but received let's see received no response. let's see what been saying. who do what you've been saying. who do you agree with? is wrong for you agree with? is it wrong for pupils as four to be pupils as young as four to be asked gay, lesbian or asked if they're gay, lesbian or trans? on says anyone trans? barrie on x says anyone asking as four if asking a kid as young as four if they're lesbian trans they're gay, lesbian or trans needs put on a watch list needs to be put on a watch list and banned being and banned from being allowed anywhere school . anywhere near a primary school. barrie, i think agree with you barrie, i think i agree with you matt says gay man matt on x says as a gay man myself, more these people myself, the more these people whip the the whip up tensions, the more the likes and others will likes of me and many others will get the crossfire and get caught in the crossfire and traitors. this traitors. if we endorse this madness. we it needs madness. when we don't, it needs to to stop. and to stop. it needs to stop. and your verdict is now in absolutely emphatic. 95% of you agree that it's wrong for pupils as young as four to be asked if they're gay, lesbian or trans. 5% of you, may i say, who are you? the 5? 5% you say that you? the 5? 5% of you say that is okay. actually, that's quite concerning. i was hoping for 100. but anyway , coming up, the

100. but anyway, coming up, the times reports that angela rayner will use a 15 to £23,000 kitchen to prove she was exempt from paying to prove she was exempt from paying capital gains tax on her council house. we have pictures of that, said kitchen as well. i'd like to see what you think. it cost a pretty penny, and we're going to show you those snaps in short while with snaps in just a short while with political firebrand ann widdecombe, who's on standby. but next, prince harry made the us primary of us his primary country of residence. on the very same date, he was evicted from by his father from frogmore cottage in windsor park. so was that a veiled dig at the cancer stricken king editor at large at the mail on sunday? charlotte griffiths has plenty to share on that, and an exclusive bombshell about king's health. she's about the king's health. she's live in the studio. don't go anywhere. this is patrick christys

gb news. patrick christys. tonight. only on gb news with me. ben. leo. coming up as angela rayner's capital gains tax scandal continues to snowball. does she risk torpedoing labour's electoral open goal? political legend ann widdecombe gives her expert analysis shortly. but first, it's time for the royal dispatch with the mail on sunday's charlotte griffiths . sunday's charlotte griffiths. and in the bombshell stories, charlotte broke over the weekend, it was revealed that king charles was shockingly duped by a senior aide into signing a document appointing a colleague to a job at the

palace, despite staff being instructed not to burden him as he was recovering from a from a round of gruelling cancer treatment . so the king's private treatment. so the king's private secretary has been forced to since put an awkward u—turn on the appointment. meanwhile, prince harry, remember him. he appears to have fully turned his back on the uk as he listed his primary residence as the united states the very first time states for the very first time in papers published yesterday. so, , harry listed so, interestingly, harry listed the dates on the formal us resident residency forms as the 29th of june 2023 last year. so that was the very same day he was kicked out of frogmore cottage in great windsor park by his dad, the king charlotte , his dad, the king charlotte, thank you for joining his dad, the king charlotte, thank you forjoining me. are we thank you for joining me. are we just putting two and two together here with the significance of this date? because there were stories doing the rounds that harry the rounds today that harry chose that date specifically because he was hurt about because he was so hurt about being booted out of frogmore by his dad. >> yeah. i mean, to me, it feels like he's trolling his dad bit like he's trolling his dad a bit because have said that

because he could have said that he's a us resident since he's been a us resident since 2020, he quit uk and 2020, when he quit the uk and moved to the states, but instead he exact day that his he chose the exact day that his dad kicked him out of frogmore. but reason dad kicked but the reason his dad kicked him of was because him out of frogmore was because he'd camilla in he'd slagged off camilla in spare. and, you know, and his dad apparently was a really difficult for charles difficult decision for charles because dad wants difficult decision for charles be kicks dad wants difficult decision for charles be kick their dad wants difficult decision for charles be kick their son dad wants difficult decision for charles be kick their son out dad wants difficult decision for charles be kick their son out dtheirants to kick their son out of their home. but he went the home. but he went beyond the pale. charles took the pale. so charles took the difficult say, look , difficult decision to say, look, frogmore for frogmore has been empty for years anyway. we've spent £2.4 million it for you and million doing it up for you and now you've, you know, insulted our family in your book spare. so he just he just cut, cut, cut harry off but harry, of harry off then. but harry, of course, was incensed by this move. and now we discover that a company's house document he filed only yesterday puts that exact date down. and you know nothing is chance with harry. nothing is by chance with harry. i wouldn't put it past him to have deliberately put that in there father. there to spite his father. >> the that gets me right >> the thing that gets me right is meghan left the uk. is harry and meghan left the uk. they going focus they said we're going to focus on away from the on a new life away from the hellhole in england and all the trauma been through with trauma we've been through with the royal family, all they seem

is patrick christys tonight with me? ben. leo. only on gb news still to come tonight. a failed asylum seeker. and you're not going to to miss this. going to want to miss this. whose blocked by whose deportation was blocked by french now pleads french cabin crew. now pleads guilty to raping a 15 year old british girl. but first, we welcome former tory minister ann widdecombe and further developments on the angela rayner council house scandal. labour's deputy leader is facing fresh questions over whether capital may be owed on capital gains tax may be owed on a second property. if she was exempt from capital gains tax on the sale of her first stockport council house in 2015, it would mean her husband should have paid the tax on the property he sold the following year. police are now investigating multiple allegations against angela rayner , with at least a dozen

rayner, with at least a dozen officers assigned to the case. meanwhile, sources have briefed the times that she's expected to claim exemption from capital gains after offsetting the tax with a kitchen renovation. so it's a qualify . the kitchen, it's a qualify. the kitchen, pictured by zoopla when she sold the house, would have apparently had to be worth between 15 and £23,000. and there's the pictures on the screen. yeah, i'm not going to comment. just make your own minds up. is that a 23 grand kitchen? who knows , a 23 grand kitchen? who knows, ann widdecombe, are you with us? angela rayner denies angela denies any wrongdoing . but i denies any wrongdoing. but i want to know, is sir keir starmer jeopardising want to know, is sir keir starmerjeopardising labour's electoral open goal by continuing to back her on this before he's got a full answer ? before he's got a full answer? >> he handled it very badly. i mean, there's no doubt at all in my mind that, she should have published advice. now, published the tax advice. now, i don't call upon people to pubush don't call upon people to publish their personal taxes, but and she has done but she does. and she has done so with conservatives in the past, don't see why she past, so i don't see why she should have been different. but if published tax advice

if they published the tax advice and definitive, that and if it was definitive, that would closed the matter would have closed the matter down, the fact that keir starmer doesn't even appear to have seen that tax advice for himself. i think means that that he just isn't handling this well, and of course, it gets more complicated as you go along and new allegations come along every five minutes, and so we must now wait for the police investigation . but i would investigation. but i would stress that, as i have done on other programmes, that she is entitled to a presumption of innocence until proven guilty. >> yeah, of course, but my only concern is there's been such a there's a position from labour types on the left who say this isn't even a story worth discussing. of course, angela rayneris discussing. of course, angela rayner is innocent until proven guilty , but i've had so much guilty, but i've had so much slack online in recent weeks for even saying , oh, look, a new even saying, oh, look, a new development in the rayner story. so this isn't so many people think this isn't even discussion even worthy of discussion because somehow because she's, you know, somehow a class girl done good. a working class girl done good. >> no, i mean, the nonsense about how everybody is having a go at her because she's working class , is just utterly

class, is just utterly ridiculous. got the same ridiculous. you've got the same claim in reverse being made today by a lawyer in the case of the dead baby and the aristocrat where he says, oh, well, you know, she's being , persecuted know, she's being, persecuted because she's upper class. now, class has nothing to do with it at all. whether working middle or upper. she either did or didn't , do the right thing with didn't, do the right thing with her taxes. and that's the only question. the police are looking at it. they will be able to answer it definitively. you know, which the rest of us can't because she hasn't published it. well, okay. >> well, rayner has a >> well, rayner has said in a statement, i've repeatedly said i chance i would welcome the chance to sit the appropriate sit down with the appropriate authorities, including the police suss out the police and hmrc, to suss out the facts under this facts and draw a line under this . i'm completely confident i followed times. followed the rules at all times. i as i did before , if i will say, as i did before, if i will say, as i did before, if i criminal offence, i committed a criminal offence, i committed a criminal offence, i course do the right i committed a criminal offence, i and course do the right i committed a criminal offence, i and step'se do the right i committed a criminal offence, i and step down.the right i committed a criminal offence, i and step down. he right i committed a criminal offence, i and step down. i mean, thing and step down. i mean, let's remind ourselves let's just remind ourselves when bofis let's just remind ourselves when boris caught eating boris johnson was caught eating crusty m&s sandwiches downing crusty m&s sandwiches in downing street , she called for him to street, she called for him to resign upon only police investigation. there we are,

said the action demonstrated the uk's unequivocal condemnation of iran's attack on a sovereign state. he said not only was iran's reckless attack a total failure, but they've revealed to the world their true nature as a malign influence in the region. britain's also freezing the assets of some iranian organisation, including some individuals in the navy and the army. that adds to more than 400 sanctions already imposed on iranian assets . iranian assets. >> iran's behaviour is unacceptable and it's right that countries come together here at the g7 and make those points, not just because of what iran has been doing, but also as a message to israel that we want to play our part in having a coordinated strategy that deals with iran's aggression that we saw so clearly against israel over the weekend . over the weekend. >> foreign secretary lord cameron, there now a criminal gang involved in a website which actually taught subscribers how

to defraud thousands of victims, has been shut down by police. 480,000 card numbers belonging to as many as 70,000 people were accessed via the website , which accessed via the website, which was called lab post, with criminals subscribing to the site so they could be taught how to access bank details and pin numbers . to access bank details and pin numbers. linear train to access bank details and pin numbers . linear train drivers numbers. linear train drivers have announced another strike this weekend on saturday to be precise, leading to the cancellation of around 3 in 4 services. members of aslef will also walk out for the day and ban overtime over the weekend, in a fresh dispute over terms and conditions , the rail and conditions, the rail operator says it will run just 26% of its usual routes between london, edinburgh and west yorkshire. the walkouts are separate to the long running dispute over pay between aslef and 16 other train operators . and 16 other train operators. and finally, team gb unveiled its brand new olympic kit today ahead of the paris games this summer. the kit features the

the congo, miller arrived in the uk in 2004 after paying an agent to smuggle him out of east africa, where he claimed his life was at risk. in may 2005, he was put on a flight back to the congo's capital, brazzaville, but the crew prevented the jet's takeoff from southampton amid claims deportation minders had taped miller's legs together and handcuffed him, breaking his hand.so handcuffed him, breaking his hand. so just to reiterate, the airline that thwarted the home office that day was air france . office that day was air france. how appropriate. bearing in mind what's going on now with the small boats crisis. a month later, miller won leave to remain in the uk where, as you've already heard, he would go on to rape a 15 year old teenage girl. so go on to rape a 15 year old teenage girl . so let's go on to rape a 15 year old teenage girl. so let's bring up that image of him again. where is he? there we go. migrants are not criminals. there he is protesting in a scene that open border fanatics would undoubtedly get behind around his neck. as you can see for radio listeners , reads a sign radio listeners, reads a sign migrants are not criminals.

let's be honest, the vast majority of migrants aren't criminals. but that guy definitely was. he was a dangerous sex attacker, in fact. and we had him on a one way ticket back to his home country until a bunch of lefty social justice warriors thought they knew better. and here's a shock for you they didn't. knew better. and here's a shock for you they didn't . let's get for you they didn't. let's get some reaction now from conservative mp for east worthing and shoreham, tim loughton. actually, tim, you're my former mp. very sad to see your standing down actually, but our last about that at the end. in the case of this , i was about in the case of this, i was about to call him a gentleman, but he's not a gentleman. in the case this tim lefty case of this man, tim lefty protest and it was actually air france cabin crew, believe it or not, stopped him leaving the country thwarted. the democratic process, thwarted the british justice system , and he was justice system, and he was allowed to stay in the uk and go to on rape. this is an absolute scandal. and let me say, it's not the only case either. >> i think that's the point, ben.and >> i think that's the point, ben. and this happened quite a while ago, and now he's gone on

to offend. the real issue is that this is not an isolated incident, and we've had many more , more recent cases where more, more recent cases where not just cabin crew, but even passengers have have intervened to stop somebody being deported , to stop somebody being deported, who's got a criminal record, who's got a criminal record, who's got a criminal record, who's got absolutely no right to be in the country. it's legitimately they are being deported and they've been taken off a plane. we've had labour mps signed ing letters petitioning for various people not be deported, who then not to be deported, who then turn out to be criminals and commit criminal acts as, as well. so he's absolutely right in that sign, which there's migrants are not criminals , but migrants are not criminals, but some are. he was and he shouldn't have been allowed to commit his criminal acts in this country when he was legitimately going to be deported. >> so robert jenrick, former >> so robert jenrick, the former immigration minister, he was speaking last night and he said that to quote , the uk needs that to quote, the uk needs a more policy, because more robust policy, because a handful of symbolic flights to

east africa talking about rwanda , we're moving on to the small boats issue , wasn't going to be boats issue, wasn't going to be a good enough deterrent, tim. why can't we just behave like a normal country? australia did it in the mid 2000 with tony abbott and turn back the boats midwater humanely, by the way, putting them into a very safe life. vessels, lifeboat vessels and either sending them back to where they came from or to offshore processing sites , if only. >> and it's a very different situation to australia now. like it or not, we play by the rules. when boats leave french shores , when boats leave french shores, and more needs to be done by the french to stop them leaving french to stop them leaving french shores. or if they do leave french shores, they should be intercepted at sea and brought back to those french shores. so it becomes a completely expensive round trip for migrants paying people smugglers, only to be returned to french beaches that would absolutely kill off this trade . absolutely kill off this trade. so stone dead. but the french won't cooperate in in doing

that, which is the nub of this problem. once those boats come into british territorial waters. like it or not, they become our responsibility and it's incredible, frankly, given the danger of what's gone on in the channel danger of what's gone on in the channel, that more people haven't lost their lives and it's down to the good services and the bravery of many of our lifeboats, our border force, coastguard and others who bring them to the uk as we are duty bound under international law, like it or not, to do just as frankly, the french are duty bound under international maritime law to intercept those boats because crimes are being committed by paying people smugglers and criminal gangs to try and get them into the into the country. frankly it might be a might sound a nice idea. you cannot try and turn those boats around at at sea because there then would be casualties. they shouldn't be leaving the french shores in the first place. >> right, tim? i know from first hand experience you're a good mp. seat for a mp. you've held your seat for a number announced number of years. you announced

you're stepping couple of you're stepping down a couple of days be standing days ago. you won't be standing at there at the next election. is there anything mean, anything to do with the. i mean, are about the are you embarrassed about the way your party has handled not just illegal migration, but legal migration? you've had total control over it, yet you've allowed the city, a city the size of birmingham every two years, to come into this country. the services aren't sufficient enough to support them. people. i mean, brits can't get dentists appointments. they can't get gp appointments, school no one can school appointments. no one can buy a house anymore, you buy a house anymore, are you embarrassed ashamed by the embarrassed and ashamed by the tories record on migration, no . tories record on migration, no. and that hyperbole doesn't help the situation . there are two factors. >> is it hyperbole? >> is it hyperbole? >> first, first, there is illegal migration, which we need to be able to do more. but we are in this ridiculous situation where people are paying people smugglers to come across the channel and once they're in british territorial waters, they are our responsibility . and are our responsibility. and where you've got people who then cannot be returned to their home country, they come from countries eritrea, countries like iran, eritrea,

where they physically will not let off plane. that's let them off the plane. that's when have a problem. that's let them off the plane. that's whe|the have a problem. that's let them off the plane. that's whe|the governmentilem. that's let them off the plane. that's whe|the government ism. that's let them off the plane. that's whe|the government is putting so why the government is putting so much this rwanda much effort into this rwanda scheme way of getting scheme as a way of getting people the country to a people out of the country to a third territory, which will be a deterrent and we've seen why that will be a deterrent, because i think for a select committee i sit on have been to france seen it france and we've seen what it can, can do. there is an issue with levels of migration . with high levels of migration. again, the government is taking steps that largely steps to reduce that largely because of the dependents are coming with we need in coming with people we need in this , bringing a lot of this country, bringing a lot of dependents frankly don't dependents who frankly don't have a place to be in the country that is being reduced. but we also depend on quite a lot of migrant labour in our essential services, as well. we need the balance right. need to get the balance right. no, embarrassed because no, i'm not embarrassed because we're something no, i'm not embarrassed because we're because something no, i'm not embarrassed because we're because everyonething no, i'm not embarrassed because we're because everyone else about it because everyone else has just cried foul and said, this is a disgrace, but come up with no practical solutions, which this government is which is what this government is trying which is what this government is tryi okay, really appreciate >> okay, tim, really appreciate you with us. good luck >> okay, tim, really appreciate you your with us. good luck >> okay, tim, really appreciate you your future|s. good luck >> okay, tim, really appreciate you your future endeavours. tim with your future endeavours. tim lawson east worthing lawson there, east worthing and shoreham lawson there, east worthing and shothe|m lawson there, east worthing and shothe thoughts now from our get the thoughts now from our

panel tonight. daily telegraph columnist allison pearson, former labour party adviser matthew lazor and of course, gb news presenter nana akua allison, let's start with you. that story about the migrant who should have been deported. air france cabin crew, no less, were the ones responsible for keeping him here. and he went on rape him here. and he went on to rape a teenage girl in britain. >> there's class of >> yeah, there's a class of person , ben. i'd call them the person, ben. i'd call them the great and the good, the ben johnson and what they is johnson and what they see is they the rights of they see the human rights of someone this congolese guy, someone like this congolese guy, okay? about not okay? it's all about let's not deport that's terribly deport him. that's terribly unkind. his rights. what unkind. his human rights. what about the human rights 15 about the human rights of 15 year british to not be year old british girl to not be raped by the congolese man? and we time and again, we we see this time and again, we had a couple of years ago, we had a couple of years ago, we had called ernesto elliott had a guy called ernesto elliott . he was plane being . he was on a plane being deported jamaica. all these deported to jamaica. all these lovies naomi campbell, actress thandie newton , some of the thandie newton, some of the labour people, labour mps. oh, you know, don't support these people. it's absolutely dreadful. poor people and then this guy goes and murders on the streets of london, a 35 year old

man, now dead, mourned by his parents because this guy, you know, the nice, the nice people , know, the nice, the nice people, the nice people stopped the nasty man being sent away. and ben, i have to say, as a woman and as a mother of a daughter, every single one of these illegal asylum people who play our system, they are presenting a daily threat to british women. okay? and our human rights, as far as i'm concerned, are more important than theirs. >> yeah , it's an absolute >> yeah, it's an absolute outrage and matthew laza correct me wrong, not keir me if i'm wrong, was it not keir starmer signed a petition starmer who signed a petition calling asylum calling for a jamaican asylum seeker to not be deported? >> mean , yeah, but i >> well, i mean, yeah, but i don't think that asylum seeker went on to commit offences. it's not the one that alison has just been about. i mean, been talking about. i mean, there cases where it's there are some cases where it's perfectly seen there are some cases where it's perfecticampaign seen there are some cases where it's perfecticampaign , seen there are some cases where it's perfecticampaign , rightly seen there are some cases where it's perfecticampaign , rightly to een there are some cases where it's perfecticampaign , rightly to keep people campaign, rightly to keep people campaign, rightly to keep people in the country. look, i think case, all our think in this case, all our thoughts with must be thoughts to begin with must be with this awful with the victim of this awful crime. i don't think know what. >> yeah, that's very noble of you say that. thoughts you to say that. but thoughts and anymore. and prayers don't work anymore. matthew are sick to

matthew laza. people are sick to the hearing these types the stomach hearing these types of was a there of stories. there was a there was a serbian guy and it was in bournemouth or portsmouth last year people year he'd murdered two people already came here already in serbia. he came here somehow, got in, wasn't deported and went to kill a british lad on a night out. people don't want thoughts and prayers, ben. >> what? i think, what i think is case, i think it's not is the case, i think it's not particularly for , particularly appropriate for, cabin a flight to take cabin crew on a flight to take to into their own to take matters into their own hands. in this instance, there was issue. ithink hands. in this instance, there was issue. i think there was an issue. i think there were issues he being issues about how he was being handled. think hand ended handled. i think his hand ended up cabin crew up being broken. the cabin crew have responsibility. the have responsibility. but the thing then back thing is, he then went back into the system. then the british system. and then it was then the british was it was then that the british courts , the tribunal system, let courts, the tribunal system, let him stay. and that's where the that's where the real thing, because the screening is happening. >> but the problem is we're paying >> but the problem is we're paying for this, we're paying for this . so, so we're paying for this. so, so we're paying for this. so, so we're paying for these people legal for these people to have legal challenges one after the other, challenges one after the other, challenges that we as the british people probably would have pay for ourselves. have to pay for ourselves. and i'm teeth of i'm sick to my back teeth of listening to yet another story of migrant who has done

of another migrant who has done something bad to somebody in this then these liberal this country, then these liberal lefties or liberal wokerati come in and say, oh , this poor person in and say, oh, this poor person is a victim. i think there's a lack of understanding as to the mentality and mindset of many of the migrants who come to this country. and i think, unfortunately, we have a sort of an elitist class who don't really think in the same way as the people that they're supposedly rescuing. you supposedly rescuing. and you see it with things liberal it with things like the liberal left about white left who worry about white privilege and all that, and it's they who are writing the narrative. it's not black people that most. mostly that are most. it's mostly coming liberals. that are most. it's mostly coming liberals . and coming from white liberals. and i've got to say, here we go again. these people wouldn't go to ghana. you come to africa, you ghana, they'll say, you come to ghana, they'll say, well, you make your own way legal. not paying your legal. we're not paying for your legal. we're not paying for your legal fees. your food, legal fees. get your own food, get own why are we get your own shelter. why are we so accommodating for in this way, actually drawing way, we're actually drawing people to this country. >> we're doing it absolutely. >> we're doing it absolutely. >> you talk because >> well, you can talk because what were your people can do? what going do? what are labour going to do? well, think they well, i think what are they going to do? well, i think what are they goiiwhich io? well, i think what are they goiiwhich processes applications. >> which processes applications.

but system but we also need a system where the where when people are in it and i don't and they're assessed. i don't understand was understand why this guy was assessed and then assessed one way and then suddenly the flight suddenly he's off the flight and he's stay he's assessed he can stay the system is collapsing. he's assessed he can stay the sys'you're collapsing. he's assessed he can stay the sys'you're coming ng. he's assessed he can stay the sys'you're coming through. >> you're coming through. >> you're coming through. >> asylum is a >> the asylum system is just a complete racket. doesn't complete racket. it doesn't work. with abdul complete racket. it doesn't work. on with abdul complete racket. it doesn't work. on third /ith abdul complete racket. it doesn't work. on third rejection, ezedi on his third rejection, suddenly a suddenly decided he was a christian, let him stay. >> these these people, they're so and, you know, so virtuous and, you know, they're the good guys, aren't they? but whenever stories like this pop they remain this pop up, they they remain quiet and awol. so quiet and go awol. so interesting, coming interesting, isn't it, coming up, rishi up, sticking on migration. rishi sunak, he's quietly dropped his pledge rwanda flights pledge to have rwanda flights off ground by spring. but off the ground by spring. but will them take off will the lords let them take off at all? also, disorder in the house of commons, no no no no . house of commons, no no no no. >> it sounds like a football match, doesn't it? find out why parliament sounded more like wembley stadium there, along with of with the very first of tomorrow's front very, tomorrow's front pages. very, very shortly . but first, as even very shortly. but first, as even the greenwashed scottish government world government drops its world leading target to reduce carbon emissions by 75% by 2030 is net

zero. the deranged march to it ultimately unachievable? i take on professor chris john dunne next. this is patrick christys tonight with me ben leo only on .

gb news. this is patrick christys. tonight with me. ben. leo. only on gb news. a very first look at all of tomorrow's newspaper front pages coming up. but first, the scottish government has today been forced into a humiliating u—turn by scrapping its, quote, world leading pledge to cut carbon emissions by 75% by 2030. after years of repeatedly missing targets. that's despite, by the way, humza yousaf and nicola sturgeon both trumpeting scotland as a global leader on climate action. so look, it's a well trodden path. rishi sunak also rowed back on his government's climate commitments commitments last yean commitments commitments last year, pushing back the deadline for selling new petrol and diesel cars and watering down the out of gas boilers. the phasing out of gas boilers. so what did scottish first minister humza yousaf make of sunaks decision at the time ? sunaks decision at the time? >> i think it is completely unforgivable for the uk government, for the prime minister in the face of complete climate catastrophe, as we've

seen, particularly over the course of the summer, to roll back on commitments to reach net zero. >> i'm sorry, i'm sorry. what an absolute hypocrite. how anyone can take that guy seriously, i don't know, and i was thinking about this earlier to think that people for vote this man. it blows my mind. but look, i'm joined now by senior lecturer in natural sciences at the university of bangor , doctor university of bangor, doctor christian dunn. good evening. christian. thank you forjoining christian. thank you for joining me. so let me just ask you, is net zero dead in the water? is this decision by the snp the first domino to fall and the first domino to fall and the first admission that actually net zero is just going to make us poorer , well, i us colder and poorer, well, i hope not in many ways, because will we have to get to net zero, i mean, that's just a fundamentally we have to how quickly we do that, though, i think, countries leaders and even companies as well are finding just how tough it is going to be, because we have

become completely wedded to fossil fuels and to decouple ourselves is going to take, unfortunately, huge investment, there are tremendous positives in other ways. if we can get there, but i think it's far trickier than we would like it to be. >> christian. can i just be completely frank with you? the uk carbon emissions uk is global. carbon emissions are less 1, right? we've are less than 1, right? we've reduced by around 40% reduced emissions by around 40% over the last couple of decades. meanwhile china are building new coal power stations i think two every week. india is ploughing forward with coal power station plans. what's the point of british people making themselves poorer and skinnier just to fund the coffers of the green lobby ? the coffers of the green lobby? >> yes, i understand that argument , my response would be argument, my response would be just because other countries aren't doing the right thing doesn't mean that we shouldn't doesn't mean that we shouldn't do the right thing either. we should be doing the right thing and hope that the other countries, take a lead from what

we are doing, but and then when it comes to, you know, we are going to be poorer, etc, etc. if done incorrectly, net zero could done incorrectly, net zero could do that. and this is why i think that we have to take a more holistic and more nuanced approach to reaching net zero, perhaps having targets of specific dates, makes that harder to do, and perhaps we should be moving forward, in a more pragmatic way where we can, but also what we i think we should be doing. and people like myself that believe fundamentally net is fundamentally in net zero is taking public with us. and taking the public with us. and i think that has perhaps not worked time , it's worked a lot of the time, it's been a little bit more kind of could be seen as more preaching and do and telling people what to do rather trying to bring the rather than trying to bring the people us and show them the people with us and show them the additional benefits reaching additional benefits of reaching net and christian, you you >> and christian, you say you need the public you need to take the public with you on to net zero. but on this march to net zero. but i mean, i always ask climate scientists and climate alarmists this same question how can the

pubuc this same question how can the public and those on the other side of the debate take the arguments seriously when so many previous predictions from yesteryear on climate annihilation have been , you annihilation have been, you know, passed without a whimper? for example, in 2000, senior climate scientist david viner said that, climate change was so bad that kids just aren't going to know what snow is by the year 2020. in 2018, greta thunberg tweeted that humanity would be wiped out if we didn't stop using fossil fuels within five years. in 2004, the guardian reported on a pentagon climate reported on a pentagon climate report that said britain would have a siberian climate by 2019. prince charles in 2009 said we had just 96 months to save the world. how are you going to get the public on board with you? when people make such, you know, frankly, ridiculous frankly, quite ridiculous predictions . predictions every year. >> well, and those are individual people and most of them weren't scientists as well that you just quoted as well, so not environmental scientists in the well, sorry. so just >> well, sorry. so let me just pick up that. nasa

pick you up on that. nasa scientists climate scientists and un climate scientists and un climate scientists are quoted in that as well. in 1978, the un said something similar, and neither is king charles, but that but that being said, the ipcc, which released the report , which is released the report, which is the consensus of hundreds of scientists, is not like that. it's not that alarmist, but people don't really know that because they don't really read the massive report that is produced there, but my issue produced there, but my an issue that always have as well in that i always have as well in britain, it's really easy us britain, it's really easy for us to climate change isn't to say, oh, climate change isn't affecting who cares? i do affecting us or who cares? i do research vietnam, the research in vietnam, in the mekong delta, there there mekong delta, and there there are whose livelihood is are farmers whose livelihood is being affected now because of climate change and i think that we forget about that in britain. it's very easy for us to forget about it. but in other parts of the world it is not that easy to forget. if you can't feed your family because sea level rise has has made that you can't grow your crops . and so it's so easy your crops. and so it's so easy for us to go, oh for goodness sake, it's just costing us bit sake, it's just costing us a bit of money. yeah, it might of money. well, yeah, it might

do, christian, the do, but chris christian, the argument, the argument is that these people like china and india, they're not going to change their ways. >> you know, why we >> so, you know, why should we bother when not asked bother when it's not asked responsible the first responsible for it in the first place? about place? you're talking about vietnam, china's next door. tell them coal power them to stop building coal power stations. quickly. >> i think a argument >> i think it's a weak argument to just say just because other countries aren't doing something we do it. and, that's we shouldn't do it. and, that's a yes. that's that was my last word. >> all right. great stuff. that was senior lecturer in natural sciences at the university of bangon sciences at the university of bangor, doctor chris john dunne, thank coming up as thank you so much. coming up as rishi his promise rishi sunak fails in his promise to flights off the to get rwanda flights off the ground spring, the pm ground by spring, has the pm been failure? plus i'm been an abject failure? plus i'm glad this cyclist is wearing a helmet . oh, ouch. but next, helmet. oh, ouch. but next, tonight's panel return to run us through the very first of tomorrow's front pages. hot off the is patrick the press. this is patrick christys tonight me, ben

gb news. welcome back. ben. leo in for patrick christys. so i think by now it was probably sunny himself. somewhere down in the canaries. lucky him. time now to bnng canaries. lucky him. time now to bring news bring you tomorrow's news tonight most entertaining tonight in the most entertaining paper . the very paper review on telly. the very first front pages have just been delivered pack. delivered from my press pack. okay. i'm joined by daily telegraph columnist allison pearson, matthew laza and nana akua.so pearson, matthew laza and nana akua. so the first story daily mail sturgeon husband charged over snp cash probe. peter murrell rearrested today, more than a year after he was first questioned as part of a probe into the party's finances. and he has been charged tonight. the metro mp . i need five k to pay metro mp. i need five k to pay off bad people . don't we all, off bad people. don't we all, the independent life's obviously more exciting. gets crazy down south. let me say keir starmer. police must probe mp over party cash for, quote, bad people, of course mark menzies the tory mp stripped of his role today as trade envoy. but labour have

accused the tories of a worrying pattern inaction pattern of cover up and inaction as i alluded to in my, yeah assessment of the situation at 9:00, the daily telegraph telegraph. the pm vows to end sicknote culture. so this is interesting. gps will lose power to sign people off, sick over fears worklessness is damaging the economy. what is it? something like 9 million people. >> 9.4 million. >> 9.4 million. >> 9.4 million off work, for whatever reason. sick lazy. the daily express pm tells sick note britain get a grip and a job. very good, so yeah, let's let's chat more about that telegraph story . sick note culture, story. sick note culture, allison, is this a good thing ? allison, is this a good thing? gps are going to lose the power to sign people off over fears that, you know, people out of work are damaging the economy , essentially. >> well, it's a hugely damaging ben. you can't imagine a quarter of working age britons are. well, they're off work. but then about 2.5 million are off sick. so this is a huge surge. and my

own theory i was very anti—lockdown for all the reasons that we're now seeing come to fruition and people got into the habit of, of not doing very much, have we got used to it? we absolutely. people got used to it. let's not bother to go into work, save the money, commuting, etc. etc. so i think it's been a vicious spiral and some some strong action is needed. and whether it's a labour coming labour government coming in or whether it's the conservative government dying government in their dying days, somebody needs to get a somebody really needs to get a grip of this because you, you know, have huge national know, we have huge national debt. need people to in debt. we need people to be in work, basically . work, basically. >> matthew laza are they actually sick? >> matthew laza are they act|these ick? >> matthew laza are they act|these people? well obviously, >> these people? well obviously, quite a lot are, but i think there's a massive of there's been a massive rise of mental health conditions, particularly post covid. so look, this works, if you're look, if this works, if you're going to get people back into work, an absolute goal, work, which is an absolute goal, i think we all agree that that is, you know, all economic success percentage success is about the percentage of economically active of people of economically active age you actually have economically active, there needs age you actually have ec�*be mically active, there needs age you actually have ec�*be proper' active, there needs age you actually have ec�*be proper support there needs age you actually have ec�*be proper support behind eeds to be proper support behind this. it's one thing saying that gps aren't going allowed

gps aren't going to be allowed to sign off sick notes. that's okay. if the health services are put in place to support people back into work, because some people need to go back part time. initially but keeping people in touch with the of people in touch with the way of work is good for mental health overall. that overall. do you remember that when the assessments were brought under brought in under the under cameron, a lot of cameron, there were a lot of horror of people who horror stories of people who literally wheelchairs literally were in wheelchairs being forced out, and not because the because the assessment private assessment was run by a private company badly hit. when company badly hit. yeah. when pit in. absolutely pit was brought in. absolutely some of the assessments, horror stories were absolutely awful. this needs to be done properly, but i don't object to it. >> very quick stats. but i don't object to it. >> you very quick stats. but i don't object to it. >>you said. very quick stats. but i don't object to it. >> you said. alison,juick stats. but i don't object to it. >>you said. alison, around|ts. but i don't object to it. >>you said. alison, around at. as you said. alison, around a quarter of britons, of working age are economically inactive. that's 9.4 million, a record 2.8 million nana are inactive owing to long time sickness, up from 2.1 before covid. half of more than half reported they had depression, bad nerves or anxiety come on. yeah, well, i'm not being cruel here for no to man up. >> no , i think a lot of people >> no, i think a lot of people are doing this. say man up, but but let's be fair. well, let's be fair well. i mean, look, be fair as well. i mean, look,

the massive mega waiting the nhs is massive mega waiting list so how list as well. so i wonder how many those who are off many of those people who are off sick actually on the waiting many of those people who are off sickas actually on the waiting many of those people who are off sickas well. |ally on the waiting many of those people who are off sickas well. and on the waiting many of those people who are off sickas well. and that'se waiting many of those people who are off sickas well. and that's again 1g list as well. and that's again total mismanagement nhs total mismanagement of the nhs by conservative and by the conservative party and the subsequent governments before them as well, and the nhs management by nhs management. exactly. i mean, whole exactly. i mean, the whole thing is just a complete mess. so i'm not even surprised by this. but because you can't prove this mental thing. and it's because you can't prove this merthat thing. and it's because you can't prove this merthat there thing. and it's because you can't prove this merthat there aren't and it's because you can't prove this merthat there aren't peoples because you can't prove this merthat there aren't people who not that there aren't people who aren't, suffer with aren't, you know, do suffer with it, because can't prove it, but because you can't prove it, but because you can't prove it, probably the it, it's literally probably the easiest ago, it, it's literally probably the easiwould ago, it, it's literally probably the easiwould say, ago, it, it's literally probably the easiwould say, is|o, it, it's literally probably the easiwould say, is my you would never say, oh, is my mental you'd actually mental health. you'd actually literally want to literally not want anyone to know. now just everyone's know. now it's just everyone's saying and there's no saying it and there's no comeback. you can't question it. i that was the i think part of that was the catalyst the piers morgan catalyst with the piers morgan thing, you know, whole catalyst with the piers morgan thing, markle, know, whole catalyst with the piers morgan thing, markle, piersr, whole catalyst with the piers morgan thing, markle, piers morgan,ole catalyst with the piers morgan thing, markle, piers morgan, ite meghan markle, piers morgan, it became something became it became something now that you said if you'd that if you said if you'd questioned someone's medical health, could trouble . health, you could be in trouble. >> i mean, it just feels like, you everyone has bad days, you know, everyone has bad days, everyone has bad periods, you have and troughs. you have peaks and troughs. you know, get sad sometimes. know, you get sad sometimes. does depressed ? >> well, 7— >> well, i've ? >> well, i've periodically had depression and it can be

terrible, but a motive, something to go into work, put in a day's work, talk with colleagues, buy a cup of coffee. interaction that's really important to mental health. so sitting at home, you know, allowing stuff to kind of get on top of you in four walls can be very, very bad. the thing is very, very bad. but the thing is but is and we said before, but this is and we said before, it's a vast economic problem because people during lockdown were given money to stay home. people now think the government will pay for it. we are running out of money and we have to have tax revenue to pay for all the people who who need health services. >> and of course, it ties into the migration debate, because you were talking earlier with tim legal tim loughton about legal migration. literally migration. if you literally aren't having people in the existing workforce doing the jobs bringing people in jobs you're bringing people in to those jobs. and that to do those jobs. and so that then of the two are linked. then sort of the two are linked. i think it's about people i think it's about giving people support work. because support back into work. because obviously got, you obviously if you've got, you know, got issues, know, if you've got issues, health means you can't health issues means you can't work all you only do work at all or you can only do certain that's fine. but certain work, that's fine. but on it's much more on mental health, it's much more of issue just be

of a complex issue to just be basically box and say, basically put in a box and say, you it's absolutely you can't work. it's absolutely not provable. >> it's something that don't >> it's something that you don't really proof of, really need any actual proof of, though of before, though it's one of the before, it one the most difficult it was one of the most difficult things because felt things to say because you felt the now stigma is the stigma. now that stigma is literally completely gone . and literally completely gone. and actually somebody actually i heard somebody on the radio were radio talking. they were just through in, oh yeah, my through in, oh yeah, with my adhd, i mean, they just adhd, as if, i mean, they just chucked in there as they chucked it in there as if they wanted it like they wanted it. it was like they wanted it. it was like they wanted you about it. wanted to tell you about it. >> think just quickly, what >> so i think just quickly, what nana that gp, i know nana said is that gp, i know said many of patients that said many of the patients that she's are jeweller with she's seeing are jeweller with cataracts, a teacher who can't bad leg. it's these huge nhs waiting lists are keeping people who want to work at home because they're ill and they can't get treated. >> okay, well the pm is going to give a speech on welfare reform tomorrow on that. so all eyes and ears on that. but sticking with rishi sunak , the rwanda with rishi sunak, the rwanda chaos continues after the house of lords blocked and delayed the bill again last night. and now prime minister has quietly dropped his pledge to have flights off the ground by spring. so the pm's spokesman

refused four times to say whether the target will still be met. alison these flights are never going to take off, are they? >> they're dragging their feet, ben, aren't they? they don't seem they said back in the seem as they said back in the autumn of last year, that this seem as they said back in the autlemergency year, that this seem as they said back in the autlemergency legislation his seem as they said back in the autlemergency legislation ,is seem as they said back in the autlemergency legislation , which was emergency legislation, which tends to imply speed, doesn't it? but before easter they could have gotit it? but before easter they could have got it sorted then. oh, let's leave it till two weeks after the easter holidays. i don't, i don't know, matthew's got a theory. they haven't got plan. >> absolutely . >> absolutely. >> absolutely. >> matthew thinks they haven't got the plane grant shapps today. >> said that he'd raf planes i >> k- k think there's some, >> well, i think there's some, there's some, there's some question the raf there's some, there's some que�*goti the raf there's some, there's some que�*got enough the raf there's some, there's some que�*got enough capacityhe raf there's some, there's some que�*got enough capacity to raf there's some, there's some que�*got enough capacity to do: this. >> partly because i don't know if you saw other week, but if you saw the other week, but it out the raf is actually it turns out the raf is actually leases its planes leases three of its planes to a houday no leases three of its planes to a holiday no no holiday flight company. no no no absolutely no. absolutely no no no i'm not. no. hilarious. so >> well hang on. yeah. the raf planes ship off holidaymakers for jollies. for their jollies. >> mean they're basically >> yeah i mean they're basically i obviously they're not i mean obviously they're not they're not fighter planes. they're, are they're not fighter planes. the planes are they're not fighter planes. the planes that are they're not fighter planes. the planes that they are they're not fighter planes. the planes that they could are they're not fighter planes. the planes that they could bee the planes that they could be using. in defence using. so i mean look in defence of lords, the lords has got of the lords, the lords has got a to which is there's

a job to do, which is there's a revising chamber. it's not elected. single thing revising chamber. it's not ele no, no, it's a comedy. literally complete comedy literally it's a complete comedy and because first and it's a farce because first of can ignore the echr of all, they can ignore the echr and can ignore house of and they can ignore the house of lords. know why, they and they can ignore the house of lord don't know why, they and they can ignore the house of lord don't get know why, they and they can ignore the house of lord don't get on»w why, they and they can ignore the house of lord don't get on with1y, they just don't get on with it. instead have to instead of, oh, well, we have to make and that make this amendment and that amendment, some of amendment, it is some sort of delaying and i don't know delaying tactic and i don't know what reason but what the main reason is, but i suspect they literally suspect that they just literally have no they're scared. they're scared because scared to commit to it because they think it's going to work. >> i think it's what it is that the it's passed , then the minute it's passed, then the appeals in. appeals will start coming in. so then that that then it'll show that that actually it's not going to work. do you know, ben, that day do you know, ben, that one day this the number this coming weekend, the number of who come across that of migrants who come across that will be the number that we'll

ship to rwanda in, i know, i know, in a year if it works same same with the if the house hasn't been sold off, they're going to go rwanda. going to go to rwanda. >> asked, to tim >> i asked, i said to tim lawson, and one's been able lawson, and no one's been able to a proper answer. i to give me a proper answer. i went australia december. went to australia in december. i followed into the followed nigel farage into the jungle. fun, but jungle. it was great fun, but i spoke a lot of aussies spoke to a lot of aussies then and knew and they said, and we knew anyway, from the mid 2000 they and they said, and we knew any\a y, from the mid 2000 they and they said, and we knew any\a small] the mid 2000 they and they said, and we knew any\a small boat mid 2000 they and they said, and we knew any\a small boat mid 200(theyr had a small boat problem. they turned the water, turned them back in the water, safely, into safely, transferred them into very vessels , back very safe vessels, back to either came from either where they came from or to processing sites. to offshore processing sites. tony abbott stopped the boats overnight. re—election . overnight. he won re—election. why doesn't rishi sunak he's going to lose the election anyway. arguably why hasn't he just say, we're just come out and say, we're going boats in the going to stop the boats in the water? been able water? no one's been able because they've tried. >> take the >> they've tried to take the aussie all their aussie thing. it's all their political strategists and the tories aussies. political strategists and the tories all aussies. political strategists and the tories all people|ssies. political strategists and the tories all people who ;. political strategists and the tories all people who got they're all the people who got tony re—elected. what tony abbott re—elected. but what they realise they what they don't realise is that hard to turn them back that it's hard to turn them back in channel and we can't we in the channel and we can't we don't have an island. it'd have to guernsey or jersey. to be to guernsey orjersey. i think would think that would go down. >> think other problem is >> i think the other problem is the civil service as well. i mean, not you've mean, let's not forget you've got civil service

mean, let's not forget you've got don't civil service mean, let's not forget you've got don't particularlyservice mean, let's not forget you've got don't particularly wante mean, let's not forget you've got don't particularly want to who don't particularly want to help and actually initiate help out and actually initiate and get with government and get on with the government policy. so even if you do think you it, border or you can do it, border force or one people oh, one of these people say, oh, we're to do that we're not going to do that because we, we it's against our human something. right. >> let me just you this, >> let me just show you this, this because it's i was this clip because it's i was in stitches when the stitches earlier when the production this. production team found this. they say bad luck comes in threes. and for and that's certainly true for these cyclists. these unlucky cyclists. oh, i don't know if i'm out of order for laughing at that. i mean, that last one looks pretty serious. >> are they okay? >> are they okay? >> the first one gets up and walks. i'm not sure about the other two. >> are they okay? do you know that they're okay? >> don't know they i >> i don't know how they are. i mean, last looks in a mean, that last one looks in a pretty might not be alive pretty torrid might not be alive after best wishes them. after their best wishes to them. maybe shouldn't hello maybe i shouldn't laugh. hello should maybe i shouldn't laugh. hello shoulccourse. oh prince >> of course. item. oh prince william, returning royal william, he's returning to royal dufies william, he's returning to royal duties . duties on the same day. >> harry, his brother, >> prince harry, his brother, officially uk . officially abandons the uk. should with

should the sussexes be with their time of their family in their time of need. their family in their time of need . we debate this in need. we debate this in tonight's greatest britain and union house. but first, union jack house. but first, andrew bridgen the andrew bridgen exposes the excess been excess deaths that have been brushed carpet . brushed under the carpet. >> the public is being denied this data. >> this is unacceptable. madam deputy speaker, yet again, data is hidden with impunity, just like the post office scandal. >> more of that after this short break. this is patrick christys tonight with me, ben leo. only on .

gb news. welcome back. patrick christys. tonight with me. ben. leo only on gb news. let's get more of tomorrow's newspapers. let's kick start with the mirror. i warns the tories about him . warns the tories about him. three months ago, tory chiefs were alerted to mark menzies allegedly pleading for party cash to pay. quote, bad people . cash to pay. quote, bad people. well, three months ago, okay.

yeah. good stuff. let's bad people and the i says brexit travel hope for uk students. so this is an interesting story. the eu is offering an olive branch to labour. surprise surprise under 30s set to benefit from eu plans to relax visa rules which will allow them to live, work and study in european countries for up to four years. let's get the thoughts of my panel tonight. daily telegraph superstar allison pearson, former labour adviser matthew laza and gb news presenter nana akua , matthew, presenter nana akua, matthew, let's start with you. yeah. former labour man keir starmer makes no secret of the fact he wants to cosy back up to the eu, does he? >> it's not just this >> well, it's not just this isn't really case cosying isn't really a case of cosying back the because it's back up to the eu because it's giving british young people the future thought giving british young people the futurwere. thought giving british young people the futurwere. were thought of, they were. they were robbed of, which is that they, you know, can't and freely as they can't go and freely as they could to study, to work in the european union. but i think one of the interesting things is if it's a two way street, is it will help with that labour shortage were talking shortage that we were talking about. you know, the, about. i mean, you know, the, you know, the queues your

you know, the queues in your coffee there's coffee shop because there's nobody coffee shop because there's no they your supermarket or the queue in your supermarket because nobody to stack because there's nobody to stack the and obviously, because there's nobody to stack the what and obviously, because there's nobody to stack the what thei obviously, because there's nobody to stack the what the it»bviously, because there's nobody to stack the what the it lookssly, because there's nobody to stack the what the it looks like is mean, what the it looks like is this will be modelled on a scheme that for people scheme that we have for people from australia new zealand, from australia and new zealand, which we all, we all from australia and new zealand, which you we all, we all from australia and new zealand, which you know,3 all, we all from australia and new zealand, which you know, we l, we all from australia and new zealand, which you know, we might ll from australia and new zealand, which you know, we might even know, you know, we might even have, of, know, you know, we might even have, of, the have, you know, sort of, the aussies that know have come aussies that we know have come here pulling who've here pulling our pints who've come mobility come on this youth mobility scheme there's scheme and similar, there's a similar scheme our people, similar scheme for our people, young go there. it young people to go there. so it looks it's modelled looks like it's modelled on that rather than reopening free movement think movement as a whole. but i think the think the young people the i think the young people will something for us. >> us. >> nana the, the uk government. well, downing they've well, downing street, they've said the said tonight that, the government is in favour of reaching agreements reaching individual agreements with , as you know, on with countries, as you know, on a solo basis, not mass deal a solo basis, not a mass deal with eu . yeah, i think so. with the eu. yeah, i think so. >> i would agree that on an >> i would agree with that on an individual because this individual basis because this to me labour. individual basis because this to me labour labour. individual basis because this to me labour drunk)our. individual basis because this to me labour drunk onr. individual basis because this to me labour drunk on cheap cheap labour were drunk on cheap laboun cheap labour were drunk on cheap labour. again, let's get the students to do it. and again the eu, their their motivation will be realised be they've suddenly realised that they're losing money, they've lost money the they've lost the money of the british tourists going around to all the different eu, eu countries. it was it

countries. it was it was it called inter—railing when, when i student. yeah. they i was a student. yeah. they still . but, but, but still do that. but, but, but it's so them now it's not so open to them now because it feels like a closed shop because we're longer shop because we're no longer part this is , this part of the eu. so this is, this is another opportunity is to me, another opportunity to start door to cheap start opening the door to cheap labour and get the students to do . and labour and get the students to do .and i labour and get the students to do . and i think we'll find do it. and i think we'll find ourselves back in the same place we so alison, are you we were. so alison, are you fearful of the future and integrity brexit, if and when integrity of brexit, if and when labour gets into, you know, i think that the loss of working and opportunities for think that the loss of working and people,»pportunities for think that the loss of working and people,»pwaanities for think that the loss of working and people,»pwas aities for think that the loss of working and people,»pwas a veryfor think that the loss of working and people,»pwas a very keen brexiteer. >> for me, that was the biggest loss. probably and i know a lot of younger generation. my kids are in their 20s. they felt it keenly, so i really would keenly, so i really i would welcome . i was talking to welcome this. i was talking to someone quite senior this week who were a number who said that they were a number of quite high powered meetings, and absolutely been and they are absolutely been talking about making moves towards brexit and towards reversing brexit and nothing we wouldn't have known. but that's, you know , the but that's, you know, the beginning of it. i mean, the beginning of it. i mean, the beginning of it. i mean, the beginning of it, it is the beginning. it is the beginning of away. of it away. >> is chipping away, chipping >> it is chipping away, chipping

away we away little things that we had that have, that that we didn't have, that we don't. it. would don't. so i get it. i would rather have individual rather have the individual choices because also it choices because also once it becomes conglomerate type becomes a big conglomerate type mass, becomes powerful. mass, it then becomes powerful. so can start so then the eu can start dictating again to us how we should be operating and what the rules would be and everything else like that. but with the individual , then still individual deals, then we still retain power. individual deals, then we still retel�*n power. individual deals, then we still retel mean, ower. individual deals, then we still retel mean, one'. individual deals, then we still retel mean, one of the impacts >> i mean, one of the impacts that hold up is that they might hold it up is the discussion about when we were eu. eu students were in the eu. eu students had to just the fees as to pay just pay the same fees as british now, of british students. now, of course, lucrative course, they're in the lucrative international course, they're in the lucrative inter of:ional more than home tens of thousands more than home students are charged. so obviously that impacts university funding as well. >> do you know what brexit right under the tories hasn't been allowed to started properly . allowed to get started properly. it's been stopped and obstructed at every single by the tories themselves, the tories, the wets and the tories. i mean there's very few real conservatives in the the the conservative party, the civil blocking it, every civil service blocking it, every route campaigners, the courts civil service blocking it, every rout�*nownpaigners, the courts civil service blocking it, every rout�*now if aigners, the courts civil service blocking it, every rout�*now if and ers, the courts civil service blocking it, every rout�*now if and whenie courts civil service blocking it, every rout�*now if and when labours civil service blocking it, every rout�*now if and when labour get and now if and when labour get in, it's going to be trashed, seemingly based on what alison says completely. alison. >> well, these very high powered

british people, ben referring to us powered meetings as a us in high powered meetings as a medium country, no longer a great country . vie maybe we great country. vie maybe we shouldn't even be in the g7. so as liz truss , who i interviewed as liz truss, who i interviewed this week for her book, said in the foreign office, you get people who talk our country down. >> yeah, i mean, they can they can get stuff. and you know what the eu hate us. joe biden hates us. i tweeted this the other day. you know, people in this own our own country hate us, a big proportion of them. and in actual fact, i think, you know, if you care about the future of britain, think you'd probably britain, i think you'd probably want election want a donald trump election win, seems the win, because he seems to be the only seems to actually, only guy who seems to actually, you and appreciate you know, enjoy and appreciate the also, i >> well, also, joe biden, i don't even know he's don't even know whether he's awake whether knows where awake or whether he knows where he well, there are clearly >> well, there are clearly issues about him. >> fear a trump presidency, issues about him. >> we'll a trump presidency, issues about him. >> we'll disagree presidency, issues about him. >> we'll disagree on sidency, issues about him. >> we'll disagree on siderone. but we'll disagree on that one. >> usually >> right now you usually don't hear from silent hear a peep from the silent spectators of spectators in the house of commons today, commons gallery. but today, mp andrew speech on excess andrew bridgen speech on excess deaths a roar reminiscent deaths caused a roar reminiscent being wembley stadium. being inside wembley stadium. >> watch this call on the government once again to
