many more tonight, my top punst many more tonight, my top pundits we have the green goddess herself, broadcaster and national treasure diana moran . national treasure diana moran. we also have fleet street loyalty in our midst. former editor of the news of the world, the king of the scribblers himself, neil wallis. and last but not least, comedian, broadcaster and dropper of truth bombs. sajeela kersh . plus, the bombs. sajeela kersh. plus, the most important part of the show your emails and messages. they come straight to my laptop. gbnews.com forward slash your essay and this show mark dolan tonight has a golden rule we don't do boring . not on my don't do boring. not on my watch. i just won't have it. so mark dolan tonight your perfect saturday night in, crack open a bottle of something cold and fizzy or fire up the kettle and let's get to work . given that let's get to work. given that the under—fire but unflappable

donald trump may well win the race for the white house in november, it's a deep concern that one of the most senior figures in the labour party , figures in the labour party, london mayor sadiq khan, has gone on record this week calling donald trump a racist. a sexist and a homophobe. now i'm no donald trump cheerleader and i'm disappointed that biden versus trump is the best america has to offer in a few months time . but offer in a few months time. but the racism allegation is confusing, given trump's growing support among african american voters. fed up with the woke bs under joe voters. fed up with the woke bs underjoe biden and his running mate as potential vice president, this time round will likely be a man of colour in the form of senator tim scott, who may 1st day go on to become a great president . claims of great president. claims of sexism are confusing, too. when tens of millions of american women will vote for trump this

autumn, as they did two times previously . talking about previously. talking about sexism. is trump as sexist as democratic icon bill clinton, who debased a poor intern in the oval office leading to a significant dry cleaning bill? you tell me . and if trump is you tell me. and if trump is homophobic, well, explain that to his group of supporters who are known as gays for trump. spare me the meaningless labels that khan and his labour mates like to chuck out at. anyone who dares to challenge them or reject their divisive identity politics. don't forget it was shadow health secretary wes streeting who said that anyone who voted for the conservative mayoral candidate in london, susan hall, was a racist and islamophobe, or a white supremacist . islamophobe, or a white supremacist. hall is on record as saying that those comments put her in danger. the comments

were also offensive and wrong, but these are the nice people, the be kind crowd do keep up. it's pretty clear that a large portion, if not all, of the labour party, detest donald trump, which is a big headache given that labour will likely be in power very shortly . why is in power very shortly. why is this important? well, america is the biggest single investor in the biggest single investor in the uk . they are a key cultural, the uk. they are a key cultural, political, economic , diplomatic political, economic, diplomatic and military ally. our two nafions and military ally. our two nations came together in the second world war to defeat hitler and in the 1930s, under thatcher and reagan, to preside over an economic miracle and the collapse of the iron curtain . collapse of the iron curtain. well, there's a huge risk that labour will erect a big red curtain between britain and america should they win power. and if trump gets in, particularly given khan's recent comments, if britain is hoping

for that transformative trade deal with the united states, i won't hold my breath. if starmer is in number 10. look, donald trump is chaotic. i'm not sure he's fit for high office. i don't think he's honest. i don't like his attitude to women and the january 6th riots on the capital were a moment of national shame for america. and trump helped fan those flames. plus it's wrong, notwithstanding concerns about voting irregularities that he did not concede the election in 2020. if i'm honest, i'd far rather the dynamic florida governor ron desantis, become president, given his bold and brave leadership during the pandemic in which he pushed back on the madness of lockdowns, mask mandates and vaccine tyranny. he also said florida is where woke goes to die. heaven a military hero and an unparalleled public

administrator, ron desantis embodies the values of freedom and self responsibility, and he leads by them. and don't forget it was trump who was responsible for the first of those ruinous and in my view, failed lockdowns. but right now it's a choice between flawed maverick donald trump and confused joe biden, for whom it's always bedtime time. trump has energy and conviction . he didn't start and conviction. he didn't start any wars whilst in office. he saw the economy grow and he attempted to engage with global bad actors like xi jinping of china , vladimir putin of russia china, vladimir putin of russia and kim jong un of north korea. meanwhile, joe biden, who has more nurses these days than security guards, prison tided over america's humiliating departure from afghanistan when he censored lockdown critics on social media during the pandemic. he has allowed wokery to infiltrate america's great

pubuc to infiltrate america's great public institutions , and he has public institutions, and he has borrowed yet more billions to prop up the pyramid scheme that is the us economy. under those circumstance , mrs. trump, circumstance, mrs. trump, though, a compromise has to be preferable . so with prominent preferable. so with prominent figures in the party like maya khan attacking trump, can labour be trusted with the special relationship or will it end in a costly divorce ? your reaction costly divorce? your reaction and let's get to your opinions very shortly. gbnews.com/yoursay d'orsay. but first, my top punst d'orsay. but first, my top pundits this evening, d'orsay. but first, my top pundits this evening , the green pundits this evening, the green goddess, herself a broadcaster and national treasure , diana and national treasure, diana moran. we also have the fabulous comedian, actor and playwright sajeela kersh and fleet street royalty, former executive editor of the news of the world, neil

wallace. great to have all three of you with me. let me get your reaction to this. first of all, diana moran is the special relationship safe in labour's hands? >> i'm not sure that it is. >> i'm not sure that it is. >> it does seem that it's going to be trump who gets in. and wouldn't we prefer him to biden ? wouldn't we prefer him to biden? because at least, you know he thinks more straight than the other chap. >> is that your main concern about biden? his cognitive health? >> oh, yes. >> oh, yes. >> yes, definitely. that we've watched getting more confusing as the months have recently gone past. but yes , clashing with past. but yes, clashing with sadiq khan is a bit of a worry. >> what do you think, sajeela? it's a special relationship. safe in labour's hands. you've got the prominent mayor of london calling donald trump a racist, homophobic and a sexist. >> well , you know, it's racist, homophobic and a sexist. >> well, you know, it's arguably it could be all three, but it's more of a sexist than anything, i think, in terms of having a special relationship, i don't

think i think it's going to be the relationship . whatever the relationship. whatever whoever's in we've got, like rock and a hard place, like, who do we choose? but america is in the same predicament, i'm no fan of joe biden with afghanistan. you mentioned, you know, he hasn't acted strongly enough with with israel, like, no sanctions , nothing, he's sanctions, nothing, he's cognitive. obviously that's that's an issue. you know, his health, i mean, really, we should have a cut off and not an ageist. and i think everyone should be working however long i tend to work well into my pension years. but i just think, you know, when you cannot do the job at hand, you've got. especially when you're running a country that's that's got to stop, i don't think the relationship is it doesn't matter if labour is in or the conservatives. i don't think it makes any difference. that relationship is always going to be there. it's just the better of the two evils on both sides of the two evils on both sides of the two evils on both sides of the shores . of the shores. >> to be fair to labour, neil wallace, david lammy , their wallace, david lammy, their leading frontbencher, has engaged with top us republicans

and he's been quite dismissive of mayor khan's comments about trump. is that enough ? trump. is that enough? >> no. because who is david lammy? what is the credibility of david? david lammy? non—existent. he may now be the shadow foreign secretary, but less than a couple of years ago he was accusing scotland yard of faking the death figures at grenfell. you know, he was a complete , crazy hothead under complete, crazy hothead under the previous labour leadership. now he's in with the chancellor. top job. he'll say anything you like, but the truth is, sadiq khan has got a long history of dislike of trump. he's constantly tried to go. trump he's playing to his own very local audience here in london, the truth is, sadiq carnage. three things as well. he's a failure . he's a crime failure. he's a crime perpetrator. and he's a liar. one thing you can guarantee about khan , if he speaks, he's

about khan, if he speaks, he's lying. >> first of all, i mean, you can't call him a failure. this guy is celebrating yet another win to become london mayor. another term, another four years. and in what sense is he a liar ? liar? >> well, he's constantly lying in the london assembly about police numbers, about crime numbers. can i call him lying or being a sort of smooth politician? >> and, you know, altering the facts to his own agenda because lying is a very strong word. >> yeah. i think what you've just described is lying . and just described is lying. and when you say a failure, ask all the parents of all the young kids who've died from knife crime during his time running london. >> okay, do you think that, mayor khan is a liar and indeed , mayor khan is a liar and indeed, a failure? >> i think he definitely isn't a failure. i'd need evidence to show that where his lies come up before i accuse him of anything like that. >> history? look at his history. look at his. >> but that's not enough. it's got to be substantiated with facts .

facts. >> yes, but his his history , his >> yes, but his his history, his claims about how many houses he's built in london are completely ripped apart by successive think tanks and academic groups. it's simply not true. >> okay . and here's the crux of >> okay. and here's the crux of the matter, though, diana, a likely donald trump victory in november, as you suggested. he's aheadin november, as you suggested. he's ahead in the polls. is that an argument that the tories can leverage for rishi sunak to, say, vote conservative at the next election and we will have a partnership between trump and sunak, a western alliance akin to that of thatcher and reagan. >> we wish that it could be a is that an opportunity for sunak to sell that vision of a partnership with america under the conservatives i'm not sure about that. >> the whole thing to me is such a confusing. >> everybody's changing. they're telling lies, that changing the stories, i'm not sure. i'm not

convinced . convinced. >> i mean, neil, if i was in number 10 advising the pm, i would certainly sell this idea of a partnership with trump. you know, vote tory, get trump dream team . team. >> i think that, it's see the front page already. >> can't you see the front page? of course. >> absolutely. but the problem is just how discredited our political leaders are around the world. does anybody want to be that involved in trump? in fact, you were quite right in your piece here. you know, look at his success with the economy and remember what term he who was it? i can't remember which one of them was. it said it's about the economy, stupid. yeah and it's that that he will get a grip on again and, and the whole issue about sleepy joe and his lack of cognitive ability is a serious issue, briefly . sigilla. serious issue, briefly. sigilla. is it time whoever gets in, is it time to love bomb donald trump, given that he'll likely be the leader of the free world by the end of the year? >> i don't think so. not in my opinion, anyway. but what's the

point in picking a criminal? >> what's the point in picking a fight with somebody that's going to be very influential, leading a country that's the number one investor in the uk. >> you know, the thing is, like, it's like labour, like we don't know where labour is going to start. but i think once they get in they'll sort their stuff out. maybe trump might be different this time round. who knows. >> hiding in plain sight. >> hiding in plain sight. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> good luck with that. >> good luck with that. >> how can you follow somebody who you really don't trust, his his record is so awful in so many aspects of life. >> okay, well, listen, folks, let me tell you that the london mayor, sadiq khan, is not here to defend himself against those allegations of being a liar or perpetuating crime. but this show is all about opinions and a diversity of such. so let me know your thoughts on this. is it time for britain to love bomb donald trump? and do you think rishi sunak should sell the idea that if you vote conservative in october or november , then trump october or november, then trump and sunak will be a dream team for the west? that is gbnews.com/yoursay but next up

in the big story, after another bruising week for the bbc, and as an almighty roar breaks out over the corporation's plan to put adverts on their podcasts, is it time to scrap the licence fee altogether? we'll debate that

now, let me tell you that, my response to the. what's the big news this week? of course, mayor khanin news this week? of course, mayor khan in london has criticised donald trump, calling him a racist. is the special relationship with america safe in labour's hands ? should they in labour's hands? should they achieve power? well, feelings are coming in thick and fast this from jim mark, i will not call you an idiot for your remarks , but trump is all that remarks, but trump is all that stands between us and oblivion. the current marxist government under obama is intent on the total destruction of the usa. i think , jim, implying there that think, jim, implying there that somehow obama has a significant

influence on the white house and donald trump would eat sadiq khan for breakfast, just like hannibal lecter, says. david. keep that to feed back. coming gbnews.com/yoursay say. but it's time now for the big story and another bumpy week for our national state broadcaster. as the bbc's biggest star, gary lineker faced criticism for describing the october the 7th attacks as the hamas thing, not least criticised on this very programme , whilst the foreign programme, whilst the foreign secretary, david cameron, again berated the corporation for not calling hamas terrorists . calling hamas terrorists. meanwhile, the bbc's plans to put adverts on their podcasts has been met with fury by some of the biggest media companies in the country, who argue that this move will impact the business model of commercial operators . now this is an operators. now this is an interesting story. companies like global, who own lbc, classic fm , capital and heart, classic fm, capital and heart, argue that the bbc already

enjoys a huge advantage given that their services are funded to the tune of £3.8 billion a yearin to the tune of £3.8 billion a year in licence fee income . now, year in licence fee income. now, these radio stations have said that this move is outrageous and will distort the market. so is it time to call the bluff of the bbc and encourage more adverts and scrap the licence fee altogether? let's put that to former bbc news producer turned director of news watch, david kaetheli david, thank you so much for joining kaetheli david, thank you so much forjoining us. is it fair for the bbc to have adverts on their podcasts ? their podcasts? >> no, i don't think it is at all. and, the background to this is that the uk podcast market is one of the vibrant success stories of the last ten years in the media. it's grown , it's the media. it's grown, it's tripled in size over the last eight years, and it's now worth 80 million. now what the bbc is now planning to do. and sorry, i

should say that in that it, in that growth is lots of small companies , lots of medium sized companies, lots of medium sized companies, lots of medium sized companies, some of the big players too, of course, but it is a classic example of the, the market driving , or meeting market driving, or meeting demand. now, what the bbc are now trying to do is they've already got podcasts on their output in bbc sounds and in, in segments like bbc ideas . but segments like bbc ideas. but what they're saying is that if the bbc out, podcasts are used by streaming platforms such as spotify , which obviously are spotify, which obviously are youtube, the big players then they're going to put adverts on there and that is leveraging the power of the bbc, the disproportionate power of the bbc and the market to get gain advantage in the commercial environment. bbc sounds sorry,

bbc studios, which is behind this. not a lot of people are aware, is the commercial arm of the bbc. it is growing massively currently because it's leveraging the overseas market and the overseas output of the bbc. but this is the invasion into the uk market of bbc studios. bbc studios is now turning over 2.1 billion a year, so it's one of the biggest players in the uk market and what effectively it is doing is saying now we're putting going to put our tanks on the lawn of this, this, this nascent podcast market, and we are going to become one of the big players in it. >> well, it strikes me as very unfair on the commercial players. now, david, the bbc lost over 400,000 licence fee payers in 2022 alone, with people consuming their content on the internet instead and ignonng on the internet instead and ignoring bbc output altogether. do you think the licence fee is now dying? a slow death? >> anyway, i do and for,

separate reasons from what's going on in the podcast market. although the intertwine the reason is that the bbc aren't focusing on what the bbc or the british public wants it is sectarian content. now. it is highly biased content now aimed at only as certain segments of the audience. they've decided where their, views are on so many fronts in their output and they're not responsive to change. they won't change the complaint system. they won't. they won't allow for, different opinions about what their output should be. and they're not any more big innovators in their output. david is it is it fair to call the bbc biased? >> i mean, they get complaints from conservative supporters and labour supporters . isn't that labour supporters. isn't that proof they're doing something right? i mean, the bbc is arguably the most trusted news gatherer on the planet . gatherer on the planet. >> in recent surveys, only

around 44% of the market believe the bbc is not biased. yes, they do get complaints from all sides. but the point the point is that the research that has been done that is properly based shows that the bias is primarily one way, which is against against the, the broad right in, in our society , how bad do hamas in our society, how bad do hamas have to get before the bbc will call them terrorists? david. >> that's a very good question. i don't know, they are a terrorist organisation officially in the uk. the bbc have got weasel words around it. gary lineker, you showed that clip of him calling him, just almost glossing over what they'd done. and i think the bbc needs to take a very long, hard look at how they, they're treating the israel—gaza conflict , well the israel—gaza conflict, well indeed.i the israel—gaza conflict, well indeed. i mean, we talked about it on last night's show. the former director of television at the bbc, danny cohen , has called

the bbc, danny cohen, has called the bbc, danny cohen, has called the corporation institutionally anti—semitic. now, of course, the bbc would deny that and argue that they work very hard to make sure that their output is balanced . they would cite the is balanced. they would cite the fact that they have many millions of happy viewers and listeners. david, stay with us. let's bring my pundits into this. we have sajeela khurshid, diana moran and neil wallace , diana moran and neil wallace, neil, david, they're suggesting that the licence fee is pretty much dying a slow death . anyway, much dying a slow death. anyway, the corporation needs around 3 or £4 billion to deliver the services it currently does. what's the best way to pay for that? do you think , i think it's that? do you think, i think it's got a lot of problems because i think david is right, that it sort of dying from the death of a thousand cuts. and the problem is that it, the whole view of the licence fee is splitting in so many different ways because

because of the, apparent bias in so many areas of the bbc from the main street norm. and so what you have here is a constant receding of support for the for the licensee. personally, i still believe that bbc news is a force for good and that it provides a great service and needs to continue . however, it needs to continue. however, it won't continue like that when it continues as for instance, covering gaza the way it does. for instance , the way it covers for instance, the way it covers so many, news, ordinary news stories in the way that it does it needs to get its act together , i on reflection, i suspect david is right that the licence fee is struggling to draw breath. now is the bbc dynamo, and is the bbc doing a good job? >> is it worth almost £170 a year? and is the licence fee the right way to fund it?

>> well, the problem is with the bbc. now of course i was bbc so i should be pro bbc. is that they do appear to be biased. they do appear to be woke and therefore many people are turning over. maybe to gb news, for example, to get , a more, for example, to get, a more, reasonable view of the news. and i do think that it's unfair that if the bbc are going into advertising thing, well, then surely all of us who pay our licence fee should be getting very cross about that. okay, perhaps they've got to look within themselves at some of their top presenters and a certain man, beginning with l comes to my mind, and they should regulate that a lot more. >> okay, but sajeela, the clock's against us. your thoughts on this?

>> well , i thoughts on this? >> well, i kind of agree with neil that i do think the bbc news is a force for good. i do think they're reliable . and, think they're reliable. and, we've talked about bias a lot on your show as well in the past, your show as well in the past, you know, every, every institution has a bias, you know. hello, we're in gb news. it has a right wing bias. i understand what you're saying as well , that, you know, it should well, that, you know, it should have a more. but if it has a bias, it has a bias. but i still rely on the news from that. however, the licensing fee, i just think is so dated it makes me so angry. i got one letter through to say that your licence fee needs renewing and then immediately got another one. a red letter saying that you're going to be under investigation unless you pay , and that that is unless you pay, and that that is not making me want to pay. i will when they really throw me a lot, but i'm not going to pay. >> absolutely. >> absolutely. >> david, i've only got a few seconds. closing thoughts . seconds. closing thoughts. >> sorry. >> sorry. >> well, i think i think absolutely this underlines that the days of the licence fee are numbered. i do wish the bbc

would become more self—reflective and really look at their own bias properly, which they have refused to do time and time again. they don't accept that they are biased, and there are many ways that my organisation has shown over the years that there are . years that there are. >> david, thank you so much for joining. joining us, david keeley is the director of news watch and a former top bbc news presenter himself. don't forget at 10:00 it is my take. at ten, it's harry and meghan. it is their six year anniversary this weekend . was it a marriage made weekend. was it a marriage made in heaven or hell? well i'll be giving my verdict at 10:00. but next up , ukip giving my verdict at 10:00. but next up, ukip have giving my verdict at 10:00. but next up , ukip have elected a new next up, ukip have elected a new leader and in a mark dolan tonight exclusive will be joined by the winner. don't go

now. ukip. the party that sowed the seeds. for what would

ultimately become brexit has elected its first woman leader. in the form of broadcaster and campaigner lois perry, the party's eighth leader since nigel farage won by more than three quarters of the vote. as she replaces the formidable neil hamilton. and in a mark dolan tonight exclusive, lois perry joins me now . lois, joins me now. lois, congratulations on your excellent win. >> well, thank you. >> well, thank you. >> you're now the leader of the of the national party, which means you've got to give up your saturday nights to talk politics. >> no, i can think of nothing i'd rather do more. so thank you for having me. and you had me when i was a leadership contender. yep. and here i am. and i am so excited . i really, and i am so excited. i really, really am. we're going to make ukip ukip and we're going to we're going to make britain great again. and we're going to mop up all of those disaffected red wall voters. they don't want to go to labour, mark. they don't want necessarily to go to the other party, which is the insurgent party of process reform uk, perhaps, possibly because maybe they look, i'm

going to be very careful with my words here. if nigel farage, my friend, was leader. yeah. i wouldn't be sitting here. i wouldn't be sitting here. i wouldn't be sitting here. if wouldn't be sitting here. if he wouldn't be sitting here. i f he was the leader of reform uk, there'd be no need for me and for what i'm doing. but there really, really is because a relatable leader, someone that can connect with disaffected tories and disaffected labour voters, is very, very, very much needed.so voters, is very, very, very much needed. so you feel that the current lack of dynamic leadership at the top of reform uk is, is therefore creating a sort of gap in the market that you're seeking to fill. absolutely. and i mean, i've spoken to young people who've told me that they don't they don't want to vote tory. they don't want to vote tory. they don't want to vote tory. they don't want to vote labour. they really wanted to vote reform. they really, really did. but the hope not hate stuff capitulating to, communist bullies, they weren't very impressed with that. so you want to come home? >> you're impressed with nigel farage and he's a friend of yours. but i would sort of read

between the lines and suggest you're sceptical about richard tice. his his approach as leader or actually his policies. okay i'm going to tell you a little bit about my background. >> okay? so basically i was brought up by my maternal grandparents. my father left my sister and i and my mum needed some support. yeah my granddad owned an electronics factory. yeah he employed over 100 staff. my yeah he employed over 100 staff. my dad's mum worked on a production line in an electronics factory putting plugs together. okay. i understand what it's like. first hand to be entrepreneurial. the pitfalls, the slings and arrows of having your own business. but also how bloody hard it is to be working. working class. i have experience of both. i've been the lady of the house in a fully staffed mansion, and i've lived in social housing. i've had dinner with kings and princes and politicians, but i've also only had a tenner to put petrol in the car. >> sounds like an exhausting day. >> it is an exhausting day. >> it is an exhausting day. >> but i'm not saying that it's got to do with richard tice. >> i'm just saying you do not

have to be the living embodiment of the rudyard kipling if poem, if you know to actually be a good leader. but it does help if you have experience of real life on both sides and people relate to it. not always. boris johnson, winston churchill are notable exceptions, but i just feel that people want to come home to ukip. i know they do because i talk to people all the time. >> so what is ukip for? essentially sowed the seeds for brexit and we're now out. so hasn't its main function disappeared? >> well, no. no absolutely not. because we need independence from various things. we need, we need to be energy independent. we need to be self—sufficient with our food. we need to be independent and be able our values. i always say that ukip now has always been, but especially now, is about values . especially now, is about values. so whereas in the past there's been some stuff that we've put behind us, this is a fresh start. okay. >> what do you want to put behind you? >> i think that there was there was some times in the past where

you had people that were on the extreme right, that infiltrated the party. they they were got rid of. and we've had brilliant leadership . he steadied the ship leadership. he steadied the ship in the last few years. >> but you want to get rid of the sort of the racists and the swivel eyed loons . swivel eyed loons. >> well, the thing is, the nutjobs, the cranks, the those far right people are already saying, oh, they've got a woke leader in she's politically correct. she's this because i said, there's no place for racism or anti—semitism in any party. >> you've got rid, you get rid of the numpties, the window lickers . lickers. >> there's no window lickers in in ukip. i can assure you , but in ukip. i can assure you, but it's about values. it really, really is. so values . so that's, really is. so values. so that's, democracy, freedom of speech . democracy, freedom of speech. it's about king and country. it's about king and country. it's about king and country. it's about being personally autonomous, personally responsible. it's about all of those things. if you share our values, it doesn't matter what religion you are or background, you are welcome in ukip and we will fight for you. >> if you've got ukip versus reform and some of the other smaller parties isn't isn't well, isn't the right consuming

itself. i mean, wouldn't the best thing for you to do to go and have a boozy lunch with richard tice richard tice sort out your differences . out your differences. >> he's not interested in cooperating. well, i mean, look at maloney. she she basically italian prime minister. absolutely. she was doing she she's like she's like an italian. >> lois perry. if anyone's watching. >> right. yeah, i'm a little bit thinner. anyway. but, you know, she was doing quite. she was doing okay, but not that great. and then she thought, right, we need to collaborate. we need to work with the other parties. we are open to working with other parties on even labour or the or the tories or reform or when they share our values. and we will not put candidates up against people that share our values. that would be totally counter productive to do that. yeah. so but not everyone wants to collaborate or work together and can we go rapid fire now? >> just a few seconds. go on. you want to be the enemy of uncontrolled mass immigration? yes we certainly need to stop the boats. i think most people think that. yeah. what's an appropriate number for legal net

migration annually? well, i think that the boats are a little bit smoke and mirrors. >> actually, to be honest, i think that we need to look at the no go areas and the imported conflicts that we've brought in that are already in the united kingdom. and we use specialist task forces , police task forces. task forces, police task forces. >> so you would you would stop the boats. but what about legal net migration? i mean, you're already a politician not answering the question . i tell answering the question. i tell you what's a good figure? >> i think that we should have we should have a cap, but we're in the process of actually working out our policies on everything. i've been in the post three days. >> so you're working on a caps, a figure that will be negotiated? absolutely a couple of other quick ones. you will be the enemy of the woke mind virus. >> yes we will. so that's the whole gender nonsense . yes. whole gender nonsense. yes. that's all of the playing anti—trans . no, not at all. not anti—trans. no, not at all. not not for adults. but they shouldn't be allowed into into women's spaces. absolutely. women's sport. women's spaces. absolutely. women's sport . absolutely. but women's sport. absolutely. but but with children, leave those kids alone. okay. >> last thing is, is ukip islamophobic? >> no, not at all. muslims are

anyone who shares our values of democracy, free speech, king and country , patriotism, the rule of country, patriotism, the rule of law are welcome in the party. but radical islamism or radical forms of any religion? actually, no, no no no. 110, [10 [10 ho. no, no no no. >> lois perry, thank you for coming and seeing us. congratulations on the job, which i'm sure you'll do in a very energetic and entertaining way. thank you very much and have a great election. i do hope you'll be a key contributor to mark dolan tonight in the months ahead. >> i'd love that. >> i'd love that. >> brilliant stuff. of course, i want to hear from all of the main parties in the run up to the election labour, tories, lib dem, green, you name it, don't forget at 10:00, harry and meghan, their sixth wedding anniversary. my verdict. but next up, my mark meets guest is the author of a shocking book about the rise of adolf hitler.

next. harry and meghan celebrate six years of marriage. my verdict in my take at ten. first, this . my take at ten. first, this. it's time for mark meats. and tonight , the author of a tonight, the author of a compelling book about the rise of adolf hitler . award compelling book about the rise of adolf hitler. award winning historian thomas weber has written becoming hitler the making of a nazi . it's out now. making of a nazi. it's out now. thomas weber, thank you so much for joining us. the book forjoining us. the book examines hitler's time in munich

. between 1918 and 1926, long before the war. why was this penod before the war. why was this period so formative? >> thank you so much for having me. i think it was so formative, because this was really a time in which , hitler thought in in which, hitler thought in german, thought that the world was at crisis, that they really needed to figure out how germany could be made. great. again and at that moment in time, hitler was really trying to figure out how the world functions . and so how the world functions. and so it is really it was really in the aftermath of the first world war that he asked himself, why is it that germany lost the war, and how do we need to remake germany in order so that germany can survive in a new world of superpowers? >> and was he right wing or was he left wing? was he a socialist, a conservative? do we know about his politics? >> when hitler came home from the war, he was really kind of adrift. he was really trying to find a new political home. initially, during the

revolution, he cooperated with left wing groups. he served the munich soviet republic, which was a radical, left wing, group, and, but then, he after this was put . to an end, he became an put. to an end, he became an informer and switched sides . and informer and switched sides. and it was really in the summer of 1919 that he had his political awakening when he realised with the punitive versailles treaty that germany really had lost the war. and it is really then when he was searching for answers, and it is then that he kind of switched from being open to left wing ideas to being more open to more radical right wing ideas, not so much traditional conservative ideas, but a kind of right wing collectivism , and of right wing collectivism, and do we know much about his personality and makeup at this time? was he an angry person? was he ranting and raving, or was he more thoughtful in this penod was he more thoughtful in this period ? penod? >>i penod? >> i think a little bit of both. i mean, i think we should in a

way. i think it's a fallacy that we have got this image of hitler constantly raging . it's very constantly raging. it's very convenient to think of hitler as always, the kind of person who we see in some hitler documentary. but that's the hitler from the kind of last five or 10s of a of a two hour speech where after two hours it kind of is a crescendo. he's really getting shouting and spitting. but that's not how even later in his life, how he spoke to, behind the scenes, where he was generally described as quite, thoughtful and as quite winning . and but after the quite winning. and but after the first world war, hitler was really kind of initially he wasn't really functioning socially. he was kind of a loner. and then in a kind of very weird way , he suddenly very weird way, he suddenly finds an audience and suddenly everyone sees in him, a future leader. while during the war, even his commanding officers didn't think is see any leadership qualities in him. >> did he start out with good intentions, or was there always poison at the heart of his

project ? there certainly was project? there certainly was always poison at the heart of his , project. his, project. >> i mean, the but i still think we should kind of try to understand hitler and the way we have got to really get into his head and rather than to think of him as just somehow just being a raging lunatic who is just full of hatred, we've got to understand why he's doing what he is doing. and this goes back to what i said a minute ago. he's really trying to understand the underlying reasons for germany's weakness after world war i. and then he kind of identifies , the supposedly identifies, the supposedly pernicious influence of jews as being weakening germany and insufficient territory in manpower, as making sure that germany cannot survive in this world of, superpowers. so his intention was to, to, to make his country structurally strong again. so you could say in that sense, there is an element of

good intention. but of course, it was immediately, then directed against jews and others in a kind of proto genocide, proto genocidal way . and that proto genocidal way. and that was, of course, anything but good. >> how and why did he become this monster? did he have a personality disorder? did something happened to him earlier in life that caused him to have no empathy? i mean, this was murder on an industrial scale. eventually >> it's an excellent question, but it's in a way we still don't know the answer. i mean, we know that he always had difficulties having normal social interact actions. he always had difficulty speaking on the same level. he could function, really only in hierarchies, either looking up to people and following orders or giving orders. so in in a way there is something very strange about his, his, his his personality. and there's also this kind of weird episode of a missing year before world war one where we don't really know what happened

dunng don't really know what happened during that time. and he didn't even want to talk to his closest associate to what happened there. so it seems that something traumatic happened there. whether or not that is helps us to understand the men helps us to understand the men he became is difficult to tell. if we can only speculate what happened during that year, thomas weber, a privilege to have you on the program . my have you on the program. my thanks to award winning historian thomas weber, whose book about hitler is called hitler the making of a nazi, compelling reading. it's out now. fascinating stuff. next up , now. fascinating stuff. next up, my take at ten harry and meghan. six years on the verdict. >> that warm feeling inside from boxt boilers sponsors of weather on gb news news. >> hello! welcome to your gb news weather update from the met office into sunday. we'll see showers easing, but it's going to be a murky start before plenty of warm sunshine. so high pressure situated out towards

the west, low pressure further towards the east and in between. not too much going on, a lot of light winds around. so the showers that we've seen today across wales and parts of the southwest will generally fade, especially across scotland as well. but elsewhere plenty of dry weather, clear spells. but we will see low cloud returning for parts of scotland and the southeast of england. but otherwise temperatures holding up at around 10 or 11 degrees in the towns and cities. so to start on sunday, it's going to be a murky start for some of us with low cloud, mist and fog, especially for parts of the southeast of england and east anglia further towards the west , anglia further towards the west, though, plenty of bright skies to start the day, and that transferring . across parts of transferring. across parts of wales and the north of england, but across scotland, especially further east, you go a lot of cloud to start the day, with low cloud to start the day, with low cloud lingering across those coastal regions and further towards the north. cloud thickening thick enough for some patchy rain and drizzle . so patchy rain and drizzle. so throughout the rest of sunday

any low cloud, mist and fog should generally lift and break away to leave plenty of sunshine on offer for most of us, it will stay rather cloudy across parts of scotland , and here we could of scotland, and here we could see a few showers, and especially across that northeastern coast once again feeling cool here with low cloud but in the sunshine, temperatures recovering nicely up to 24, possibly 25 degrees. monday is a similar picture . to monday is a similar picture. to start with, we'll see plenty of low cloud, mist and fog around, but once again that should break away, leaving plenty of sunshine away, leaving plenty of sunshine a dry day on offer for most of us. we'll see some showers developing, but as we go into tuesday and wednesday, turning more unsettled with showers or perhaps even some longer spells of rain , looks like things are of rain, looks like things are heating up. >> boxt boilers. sponsors of weather on gb news

sabotage the hostage release deal? >> in other news, thousands of people can now safely drink their tap water again following a parasite outbreak. south west water has today reduced the boil water notice in the brixham area following all clear test results. the number of confirmed cases of cryptospores in the brixham area are 46, but the water company has confirmed it is now safe for around 14,500 households in the allston supply area to use their tap water as normal, but they're still advising around 2500 properties in hillhead and upper parts of brixham and kingswear to continue to boil their drinking water before consuming it . water before consuming it. meanwhile, olympian dame kelly holmes has joined protesters today demonstrating about poor water quality. 37 protests took place today, including in brighton , falmouth and brighton, falmouth and edinburgh. water companies say they're spending more than £14 billion this year to protect waterways in england and wales. but campaigners are demanding

two, with millions glued to the. action here at home and billions watching globally now, the sussexes would have you believe that somehow the press had it for in them. and in particular, meghan, let me tell you the opposite was the case. friends of mine in fleet street have told me that at the time they saw meghan as the new diana, they salivated at the prospect of how many newspapers and magazines her radiant face would sell. she was considered, in fact , far more bankable than fact, far more bankable than catherine at the time , and the catherine at the time, and the headunes catherine at the time, and the headlines about their nuptials were similarly glowing . the mail were similarly glowing. the mail said a magically modern royal wedding. the look of love, said the express. the sun newspaper . the express. the sun newspaper. she's the one. how about this from the times. she's the one. how about this from the times . welcome to the from the times. welcome to the family with a wonderful message to meghan's beautiful and elegant mother, doria and the sun on sunday. history nicely done. so where did it all go

wrong ? well, when you buy a car, wrong? well, when you buy a car, you check the tyres and the engine oil. when you buy a company, you look at the balance sheets and when you embark on marriage, you think carefully about the implications for the rest of your life . something rest of your life. something that meghan markle, in my view, did not do. now she's an impressive person and her story is one of unbridled ambition and ruthless social climbing. from a glamour girl on a tv game show to the television legal drama suits via a high flying producer husband who ultimately bit the dust like so many in her life, including her friends lizzie cundy, piers morgan and even her own father thomas, meghan's story is one of ascendancy and the pursuit of fame , power and the pursuit of fame, power and money, which is why you have to wonder whether it wasn't only love and attraction that drew

her to this millionaire prince. the son of the future king of the united kingdom . now, i'm the united kingdom. now, i'm impressed by meghan markle and what she's achieved in her life. good luck to her. but it's my view that poor old prince harry was a sitting duck to her wider plans for global domination. i don't think she ever really intended to maintain a public royal role. it doesn't take long for the opening of hospital wings, listening to the bagpipes, watching soldiers on manoeuvres, eating cucumber sandwiches and the endless smell of fresh paint to lose its lustre. it's my view that almost from day one, once she'd bagged her prince, the plan was to dump those royal duties, exit the monarchy, exit the royal family and exit britain . i have no and exit britain. i have no proof of that other than it happened after all, harry reportedly told organisers in the run up to the wedding. what

meghan wants mega gets meghan markle has her fans. i don't think it's been easy for her. the press have probably overcorrect hard and are now too harsh and like i've said, she is an unstoppable force. but let's look at the facts. since she arrived in harry's life , he has arrived in harry's life, he has fallen out with his father, his brother, his stepmother and his sister in law and he's fallen out with his country. he was once more popular than queen elizabeth herself. he has lost titles, privileges, honours, gongs, plaudits, medals and duties. he might still be the duke of sussex , but now he's duke of sussex, but now he's a commoner reliant on spilling the beans about his family and his country. in podcasts , on tv country. in podcasts, on tv shows and in best selling autobiographies , harry's life autobiographies, harry's life and innermost secrets have been sold to the highest bidder. just this week , prince william and this week, prince william and king charles are reportedly raging with anger. charles, the

angriest anyone has ever seen him about the sussexes trip to nigeria , which insiders say nigeria, which insiders say deliberately looked like an official royal trip. which is why it's my sad assessment that meghan markle is the worst thing possible that could have happened to prince harry. six years on, poor old harry looks like an accessory to his misses a useful tool lesser marriage and more a hostage situation. poor old harry california's answer to terry waite i hope i'm wrong now. i sparked controversy last weekend and broke the internet by saying that britain and the king should forgive prince harry and bring him back into the fold. well, that wasn't everyone's cup of tea, but for that to happen, two things would need to occur. harry would need to apologise and meghan, sadly, would need to be out of the picture. now, i don't want this

royal couple to split. i don't want to see any marriage end . want to see any marriage end. they've got two beautiful kids who are the priority . but the who are the priority. but the sad truth is that whilst she remains in his life, i don't see a way back for the prodigal prince. they'll have peace in the middle east before this mess is sorted out. it may be harry and meghan's six year anniversary, but it's far from a happy one. your reaction gb news. com forward slash your say. i'll get to your opinions in just a moment. but first, tonight's top pundits former executive editor of the news of the world. fleet street's finest neil wallis , comedian and neil wallis, comedian and broadcaster sir gila curci and the green goddess herself, tv personality diana moran . well, personality diana moran. well, cecilia curci six years on, harry and meghan a marriage made in heaven or a marriage made in hell? >> well, it's a bit of heaven and hell, i think. and i kind of

agreed with you that it was going really started really well , the public loved her, you know, they were like a little fairy tale. i kind of preferred their wedding to , you know, to their wedding to, you know, to william. and although i did like william. and although i did like william and kate's as well, i don't i think we kind of are getting away with you last week that i think the king should forgive him. and meghan and make up. i mean, all families fall out. they're like any other family , but they're not like any family, but they're not like any other family because they are the, you know , king and queen, the, you know, king and queen, etc, i think things started going wrong. many things . they going wrong. many things. they didn't put her as an actress on the website and the royal website . so they erased, erased website. so they erased, erased a big part of her life , which a big part of her life, which she is a feminist. i'm a feminist and that would really annoy me because, like, she's a person in her own right, then there was all the problems with her family, which everybody seems to praise her father and sister, but the father was just bleating on, you know, trying to

get a bit of the action. and the sister that she never seemed that close to was, you know, coming out with dirt. so there was that kind of scandal and then it progressively got worse. and i think she was unhappy because she is her own woman, i like kate, but kate was kind of really wants it. after university, they met. she was geared for that role, whereas she did have a life before this , she did have a life before this, i think. just leave them alone. just let them get on with their own life . i think we're really own life. i think we're really overly obsessed with them in this country , especially her and this country, especially her and i don't. i find that uncomfortable . uncomfortable. >> well, of course i would argue they are feeding the monster with the podcasts, the netflix tv documentaries and the autobiographies. neil wallis, you've been writing about the royals for decades. i don't want the sussexes to split, but i think it's a bitter truth that as long as meghan remains in harry's life, reconciliation with the king, with his brother and with the country is impossible. >> i think that's probably true.

i think this week was very illustrative, actually, when you saw the sussexes in, in africa, in nigeria , there is what you in nigeria, there is what you saw as the core of the problem. meghan wants to . be the star. meghan wants to. be the star. she came here and thought she would be the star, but she then quite quickly realised they were always going to be the support cast , her and always going to be the support cast, her and harry, and i think that was the big shocker for her. and then i think she set out to change it quite consciously, and i think that it's almost impossible to get back from there. please give us our privacy, they plead while they write yet another best seller, another podcast , another seller, another podcast, another smiling for the tour. i think in one of the days in nigeria, she went through something like five different outfits costing thousands of pounds. who paid for all that ? well, one of the

for all that? well, one of the stories in the paper today, for instance , said all the travel instance, said all the travel arrangements were effectively paid by a nigerian airline that got lots of free publicity out of it. now you can't carry on like this. the truth of the matter is, i can't believe that charles really wants to be alienated from his own son. i simply don't believe that. i think he would love for there to be a way back. i think that the sussex is have made it impossible to come back. and i don't think that meghan gives a monkey's about that. she just doesn't care. she's happy setting the agenda , making her setting the agenda, making her own rules. and harry just sits there and i'm sorry , he's not there and i'm sorry, he's not really bright enough to understand the mess he's got himself in. >> okay, diana moran , are we >> okay, diana moran, are we being harsh on meghan markle after after all, prince harry is

big enough, old enough and ugly enough to make his own decisions , we're being harsh with both of them, meghan in particular, because i think she thought she was going to be the princess. and having become the princess, she wanted everything on her terms. and she was not going to go through the royal, approach that has been there for years and years. i think it's such a shame. i was a huge fan of harry. i was there at the launch of the invictus games and i watched him with soldiers and people. he's got such a lovely manner about him. meghan, i was thinking was going to be wonderful because she was of mixed race and it was going to be very in keeping with our

modern world. but she's a social climber and she's absolutely damaged. the royal family with the podcasts , with the book. the podcasts, with the book. well, harry's book, of course, and then of course, this trip to nigeria as well, where she has absolutely revelled in it , absolutely revelled in it, thought she was the princess again , as a mother of two sons, again, as a mother of two sons, i know father and son relationships . i would love to relationships. i would love to see the king with harry again, but i don't think it's going to happen. >> well folks , your reaction >> well folks, your reaction gbnews.com/yoursay plus, tomorrow's sunday papers are on the way. and for more reaction to my take a ton ten, i should say, and reflections on the sussexes six year wedding anniversary kinsey schofield live from the united states. plus, why is king charles

reportedly angrier than he's ever been ? find out ever been? find out

next. well, six years on from their wedding. was meghan markle the worst thing that could have happened to prince harry? that was the topic of my take attend. the opinions are coming in thick and fast. gbnews.com/yoursay diana says mark, we don't want ehhen diana says mark, we don't want either. harry or meghan coming back to the uk. meghan thinks she's royalty and it seems it's going to start arranging her own royal tours like nigeria, if they do another so—called royal toun they do another so—called royal tour, hopefully the king will strip them of all titles. adrian, who is a gb news member, says i would love king charles and harry to be close again . and harry to be close again. it's not going to happen so i'm finished with it. concentrate on the royal family that we have here. don't report on those two. i'll get some more of your opinions. very shortly. but

folks, it is time now for more on this. in the company of the queen of american showbiz and royal reporting kinsey schofield. hey kinsey, great to see you, first of all, your reaction to my take at ten, although i find , meghan markle although i find, meghan markle an impressive person, i think she's the worst thing that could have happened to prince harry. what's your view? >> i mean, i think he would disagree with you because she gave him two beautiful babies in the long run, i do believe he's going to regret the way that everything unfolded. but you have two beautiful boys . you have two beautiful boys. you know how much that those those children mean to you and how they changed your life. and i imagine that while prince harry's life is increasingly more difficult, this is a man that's having to learn how to pay that's having to learn how to pay his own phone bill for the first time. i imagine that, you know, the idea of these two children have have improved his life . life. >> well, i think that's a very fair point. as i mentioned in the take at ten, the kids are

the take at ten, the kids are the priority . but he may come to the priority. but he may come to rue the day she ever stepped into his life time will tell. kinsey, can we talk about this nigerian trip? i understand it's caused a storm in the palace. >> i mean, well, where do we begin? what mark? where do we even begin? there's a new article . this is from the daily article. this is from the daily beast, and it's titled harry and meghan playing rival royals is palace nightmare. and they're exploring the just the diplomatic issues associated with harry and meghan's rogue royal pursuits. one former courtier telling the publication overseas visits might look like jollies , but they are actually a jollies, but they are actually a matter of foreign policy. they are all about promoting the uk and building diplomatic and uk relations, trade alliances , and relations, trade alliances, and that's on behalf of the government itself. harry and meghan have different priorities. you and i know exactly what those priorities are. they're headlines and cash and freebies . you know, they got and freebies. you know, they got to keep all the gifts they received on this trip to

nigeria. typical royals can't do those things , and another those things, and another report, this is coming from tom quinn to the mirror saying that the king is absolutely furious over this, the angriest anyone has ever seen them. although my sources are telling me the diplomatic argument is very valid. but the palace expects the government to step in to deal with that, to shut them down. and we kind of saw that with with people coming out saying they are not representing the uk, but i don't believe that prince william or the king are sitting around stewing about this trip because they know more about harry and meghan than we know. i mean, they have access to that. that palace bullying report. and it's my understanding that they think that the more the sussexes put themselves out there, the more themselves out there, the more the world is going to see them for who they truly are. and it's, you know, a ticking time bomb, you're going to get more of these online or you're going to get more of these allegations of bullying. meghan's going to continue to be show up late for appearances or dress inappropriately, and the world

will see them for who they truly are, let's talk now about controversy around their nigerian host. tell me more. >> well, this is another example of why the royal family is like, okay, guys, good luck, prince harry and meghan were welcomed to nigeria by a fugitive wanted in the united states over a $20 million money laundering scheme. you cannot make this up. according to the daily mail. doctor allen nima was among a small group of people who greeted h&m when they landed in nigeria, and he's the founder and the ceo of air peace . it's and the ceo of air peace. it's a nigerian carrier that the sussexes actually used on their three day tour. now this individual is the subject of a us federal indictment filed back in november 2019. he's charged with bank fraud and money laundering. he moved more than $20 million from nigeria through the united states , some of his the united states, some of his bank accounts in atlanta. it involved the scheme, false documents based on purchases of

aeroplanes , as cnn reports, that aeroplanes, as cnn reports, that he allegedly used the laundered money to buy lexuses, rolls—royces, mercedes designer goods, louis vuitton, prada. he's apparently been deported from the us twice. he denies those allegations, but it looks like harry and meghan are endorsing him by associating with him . and that is what the with him. and that is what the type of stuff the palace would have helped them navigate, avoid. >> yes, and i hear that prince andrew is very keen to meet this chap. but listen, let's talk about a musical icon. don mclean, a great singer songwriter, of course, famous for many hits including american pie and. he's pretty concerned by some of prince harry's comments in his book spare. what's the story? >> i mean, i think the general takeaway from this he's defending elvis, which i can get behind that. but i think the general takeaway is mclean saying that prince harry just doesn't get america. and he's probably right. doesn't get america. and he's probably right . all we've seen probably right. all we've seen prince harry do since he's moved over here is try to change it. and those efforts have been unwelcome . but he was talking

unwelcome. but he was talking about harry's criticism of elvis and graceland in the book spare wear. and basically don said , wear. and basically don said, harry doesn't understand that elvis is like a poor man's king. america's king. he came from nowhere. he's, you know, obviously he's a very talented music artist, but he came from nothing and turned himself into something. and americans really admire that. you know, he called prince harry this hothouse orchid a show horse who never did a thing. so don is really challenging prince harry about his elvis criticism . his elvis criticism. >> last but not least, jennifer lopez and ben affleck. is there trouble in paradise ? trouble in paradise? >> i know that this keeps you up at night. mark. i know ben affleck seen with no ring. he's been living separately from jennifer lopez for a few weeks now. he moved out of their $60 million beverly hills mansion that they bought last year, according to tmz, and is in a rental home out of brentwood. there are these new divorce rumours jennifer lopez's $20

million money like, completely ego driven amazon movies. they blew up in her face critically, totally panned. and then she's having to cancel a lot of concert dates because she's not moving a lot of tickets. so it's a tough, tough time for jennifer lopez, and i hope that they don't break up. i like i like this couple. they i tolerate them well. >> definitely . they're both very >> definitely. they're both very attractive. let's hope they can make some babies and make the world a more beautiful place. kinsey, you make mark dolan tonight more beautiful place. we'll see you in a week's time. my we'll see you in a week's time. my thanks to kinsey schofield. check out her brilliant podcast, to die for, daly and her website of the same name . next up, of the same name. next up, tomorrow's sunday papers with full pundit reactions . see you

a new policy introduced by the tories which labour are going to keep, in which you don't get any further benefits if you go beyond two children. >> well, it's becoming a bit china. we were just talking about china, weren't we? yes. i can only have two children. at least they had. yeah, they had one. but we can have one. a girl and a boy. you do you need any more? do you need any more than two i don't know. well i think my grandmother these days, but yes, my grandmother, 14, but you know, they didn't have tv then. then we've got tv, we've got the internet. there's no excuse to have more than two children these days, what do i think of that ? i think these days, what do i think of that? i think only having the one child i think that's that seems. it's amazing. i think we all just relate everything to ourselves. but i think that's. well, isn't the point isn't the idea that if you want to have 3 or 4 children, you've got to you've got to afford it and that you've got to afford it and that you can't just decide, i'm going to have loads of children and someone else will pick up the bill. yeah, that's where i do have a little bit of a problem. yeah, right . yeah, right. >> i mean, what do you think about this? but many would argue that it's heartless sort of stopping at two because what you're going to have is child poverty. children going hungry.

>> diana, the thing you said it just then, if you're going to have children, then you should be able to afford to look after those children that you're going to have not expect the state to be looking after them. >> of course, not all children are planned, are they? >> perhaps people should be a little more thoughtful . there's little more thoughtful. there's plenty of ways contraception out there, ways we're all taught about it. >> yeah, well, they are indeed. >> yeah, well, they are indeed. >> teacher used to say the best protection of all is to say no. girls that's it. >> but you can't say no to neil wallis, who's with us tonight on the sofa. neil, listen, this is the sofa. neil, listen, this is the archbishop of canterbury once again wading into politics. is this beyond his pay grade ? is this beyond his pay grade? >> this is my real take of this story yet again. the archbishop of canterbury, who is presiding over the collapse of the church of england, spending his time with wading into social issues

when his church is falling apart behind them. i'm an active christian. i, attend, church every week and the distance between, welby and the ordinary person in the pews is simply massive. he's got a lot of issues to sort out in the church of england. him getting involved in this. the biggest issue about this is that it could lead to a call for the church of england to be disestablished, as in, why on earth do are those guys there in the house of lords being able to vote to have their say they're there because that's a tradition of this country. but if he wades into big political issues like this, when he's got a heck of a lot on his own plate, that he ought to be tackling it becomes very hard to justify. >> and of course, this is a man who's been outspoken in his criticism of the rwanda plan ,

criticism of the rwanda plan, but he's a man who's outspoken essentially on anything to do thatis essentially on anything to do that is right of centre . that is right of centre. >> he, makes virtually no pretence at being anything other than pro—labour and an awful lot of his, the people who go to his churches don't think that. and he's alienating very successfully a huge part of the congregation of the church of england. well, but out i mean, diana moran, of course, will be supporters would argue that this comes from a place of empathy. >> he is a christian. he's obviously a cleric in a leadership role, and he's concerned about children going hungry, being destitute and child poverty, inequality. many would argue that is a christian issue. yes. >> and i can see exactly what you're saying there. and yes, those are christian issues and those are christian issues and those are christian issues and those are innocent children who would be going hungry and all

the rest of it. but i do agree with you. >> what do you think, sajeela, about senior clerics being political? >> okay, so i think he'd be better put to use, as would all religious leaders , to actually religious leaders, to actually educate families or people in because people just have children willy nilly and they just think, well, you know, that's fine. they just come because god's sort of sent them. and, you know, that was meant to be born. but just sort of consider, well, look, if you have one child, this is what's going to cost you along the way. if you have two, this is how it increases. how will you pay for this? how will this work out? what are your future plans to pay what are your future plans to pay for these children? if you've got a, you know, a wife who's working, will that bring in another, you know, so those conversations aren't happening. but the church and the religious kind of organisations could be having those conversations to educate people into the expense of children, which i don't think a lot of people really do, consider because they just have children, because they want them. they're not accessories , them. they're not accessories, you know, you got to pay for

them. you got to educate them. you got to put them to college, school, whatever, and you've got to feed them. most importantly , to feed them. most importantly, sunday express sajeela companies told by kemi badenoch who i think will be a future prime minister end this woke madness. >> a cabinet minister tears into bosses over diversity drive . she bosses over diversity drive. she argues that sort of activism in corporations is a turn off for many customers . what do you many customers. what do you think about this? you've seen the halifax with pronoun badges . the halifax with pronoun badges. you've got civil servants with a rainbow lanyard . ed, is there rainbow lanyard. ed, is there too much politics in the workplace , yeah, because it's an workplace, yeah, because it's an environmentally unfriendly . all environmentally unfriendly. all those lanyards are plastic. all that stuff that's being used. you know, personally. look, this is the problem is supply and demand . so, yes, there are lots demand. so, yes, there are lots of things going on, you know, diversity and all of that. and a lot of it is for good. you know, theyit lot of it is for good. you know, they it should be, but it's the pubuc they it should be, but it's the public that are also demanding it. and that's why i so i don't

think it's, i don't think it's just a one sided thing. but i do think it's unnecessary. we've gone too far. we can just say we can be inclusive without having to do every single thing for every like adhd is the latest big thing, you know, you've got to include everybody. so everybody thinks they've got a most performers , as you know, most performers, as you know, we've all got adhd to a certain degree. you need to apparently you don't have to be mad to work here, but it helps. yes, it does. yeah. exactly. so i mean, i just think it's everything in moderation. i think that's it. everything in moderation. now, the list of the most popular baby names in the uk has been released for boys. >> the number one for the second year running is noah, while olivia takes top spot for girls. harry, very sadly and i don't know why, has dropped out of the top ten for the first time in two decades. >> strange that there you go and the name meghan is being used less for baby girls . less for baby girls. >> i can see a trend here. charles has dropped out of the top 100. poor old king charles. doesit top 100. poor old king charles. does it matter what names you give your children? diana? >> oh , of course it matters. you >> oh, of course it matters. you have to think very hard before

the child is christened. and either it's a family thing or. yes, it really matters. >> were you named after somebody ? >> where did 7 >> where did diana come from. >> where did diana come from. >> the goddess ? well, no, i have >> the goddess? well, no, i have no idea. >> quite right too. >> quite right too. >> i have no idea. >> i have no idea. >> well, you went on to become the green goddess, neil, any idea why you were called neil? apart from the fact that it's a very fine name, apart from the fact it's a very fine name, what more do you need? >> yeah, it was a great uncle neil or anything like that. neil armstrong. no, as far as i'm aware, i didn't have any great uncle. there you go . uncle. there you go. >> not. not to my knowledge. >> not. not to my knowledge. >> there you go, sir. sheila, there's a problem with entertainers giving their children ridiculous names like mine. >> moon. >> moon. >> moon. >> moon unit, i think, was the name of . name of. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> dweezil, frank. frank zappa's child . dweezil. is that right, child. dweezil. is that right, peach?i child. dweezil. is that right, peach? i think we've had orange peach? i think we've had orange peach and peaches is okay. >> i thought that was quite cute. yeah, but apple , apple. cute. yeah, but apple, apple. >> the coldplay singer chris martin and grammy paltrow.

>> which apple though do you know? i mean, so many apples you could have named it. >> what is orange pippin? >> what is orange pippin? >> yeah, a pippin. yeah, there you go. >> but these names, i mean , >> but these names, i mean, noah, that's a decent name, isn't it? really? it's neutral. it won't get you bullied in the classroom. >> no, not at all. >> no, not at all. >> glad. glad to hear it. fantastic stuff. well, listen, lots more to come , including lots more to come, including more front pages. and let me tell you , we'll be joined by the tell you, we'll be joined by the former editor of the mirror, paul connew . why? well, because paul connew. why? well, because mps are resorting to extreme measures to get re—elected. find out how and why

next. >> well, good for her. >> well, good for her. >> welcome back. we've got more front pages , and let's have a front pages, and let's have a look at the sunday telegraph . look at the sunday telegraph. and they lead with tainted blood. is the worst scandal of my lifetime . it is time for my lifetime. it is time for justice, vows jeremy hunt . the justice, vows jeremy hunt. the chancellor has pledged to fulfil

his promise to a dying victim of the contaminated blood scandal. as the government prepares to unveil a compensation package for those caught in the worst treatment disaster in nhs history. also, second class post could be cut in half after royal mail buyout. okay, those are your front pages . let's now your front pages. let's now speak to the former editor of the sunday mirror, paul connew, who i used to work with in my early radio days as well. paul, great to see you, mps are going to rather extraordinary lengths to rather extraordinary lengths to get re—elected. injections tell me more . tell me more. >> when this story popped up on my mail on sunday feed, i thought i checked my watch to make sure it wasn't april the 1st, but, apparently a couple of, contenders for the future post election leadership of the tory party have been taking this

one so—called wonder drug as a ozempic, which apparently provides a sudden and drastic weight loss, including one who's supposed to have collapsed on the floor of a bar in the commons, and with medics having to be called and i mean, that doesn't sound like ozempic surreal. >> that sounds like blue nun. but anyway, that's another story. why are these mps trying to get slim ? to get slim? >> apparently because they are planning to , if the election is planning to, if the election is lost, which the opinion polls suggest it will be, they will, of course, be a contest for the, future leadership of the tory party. if the tory party is survives in its in its current form. i'm presuming these are male contenders rather than female, but it isn't quite specific from from the story, but seemingly they think they're a little too chubby. so it should be more streamlined to be fit because term, rishi sunak successor, well, paul, you

definitely don't need the ozempic. >> you're as fit as a butcher's dog. let's bring my pundits in. if we can. paul, we've got sajeela, khurshid, diana moran, and neil wallace. diana, do you think i mean, of course you are. the green goddess, health guru, fitness and nutrition expert. do you think it's important that our politicians are lean and slim? >> i think it's important that everybody is as lean and slim as they can be. and certainly people who are there in the pubuc people who are there in the public eye. yes they should. they should look after themselves. >> what do you think, diana ? >> what do you think, diana? diana, as an expert on these fitness and nutrition, what do you make of these injections? is that the answer? do you welcome this new invention ? this new invention? >> well, i'm told that they work. so that's something. but i'm also told that they cost an awful lot of money. and the moment you don't use them, the weight comes back. unless of course, you've changed your

habits. >> yes, neil wallace will britain ever elect a fat prime minister again ? minister again? >> i hope not, why? >> i hope not, why? >> boris johnson isn't that fattest ? fattest? >> well, it might be fattest, but it's, diana makes a very good point. really, our political leaders are, public figures, examples to us in every way. and the tory party had a party chairman not that long ago who was quite simply enormous. and i used to it did occur to me that he's actually if you believe in the sort of nhs, you would think, why aren't you following it? but the important matter is really what these drugs can do is you can get you down to a, a size whereby you can change your lifestyle and you can maintain that. but changing the lifestyle is what m atters. matters. >> okay. what do you think? >> okay. what do you think? >> sajeela. oh okay. >> sajeela. oh okay. >> so, firstly, like they're failing us in every other

aspect. so really looking trim up to the elections is hardly going to cut it. it's not going to make any difference . and us, to make any difference. and us, make us i can never say that. name a mess that rempe. yeah, yeah.is name a mess that rempe. yeah, yeah. is for diabetes and i've got type 2 diabetes and i'm actually waiting to get some. and it's either that or you get the gastric which, which can reduce the insulin as well. it's known to reduce insulin and it disgusts me that if politicians are using it for , for just are using it for, for just vanhy are using it for, for just vanity sake, really like , stop vanity sake, really like, stop it, you're not pop stars. you're supposed to be leading this country right? try and find another way. don't use up suppues another way. don't use up supplies that are supposed to be going to people who actually needit. need it. >> and now, paul connew an unwelcome headline in the sunday times. rishi sunak overtakes king charles, in terms of wealth, this is the sunday times. rich list 2024. could that be politically damaging ? that be politically damaging? >> i think it's very tricky. i think it's one, accolade if you call it an accolade and the

sunday times rich list that rishi sunak would probably wouldn't like to be heavily publicised , which of course it publicised, which of course it is. it is being when you when you're the prime minister lagging behind in the polls , lagging behind in the polls, although he's a very slim prime minister, but he's been increasingly slimmer majority, he , he really he's now richer he, he really he's now richer than king charles, according to the sunday times rich list, which isn't good when you're fighting an election with the cost of living crisis at the at the top of it of the agenda. when your wife until not so long ago was was a was a non—dom beneficiary . i think this one beneficiary. i think this one won't play well on the doorstep . won't play well on the doorstep. and the and the tories at the moment need, need people on the doorstep, reacting positively rather than negatively. and i think this will only up the negative count . negative count. >> do you think about this poll that, do you think essentially

sunakis that, do you think essentially sunak is too rich now to win the next election ? could it be a next election? could it be a decisive factor? >> i don't think it will be the i think to an extent his wealth is accounted for in the public mind, although this will remind them. but and it'll be interesting to see whether whether labour target target his wealth. they've done it at times , at pmqs starmer has alluded to it, he's out of touch, etc. i think it, i think it is damaging for sunak, but there are plenty of other things damaging to sunak. but i do in a new book. i'm a co—author of out in july on previewing the general election . we do look at the at election. we do look at the at his wealth and how much that is. a is a is a negative , and, and a is a is a negative, and, and i think, i think he would rather not have been figuring in this in this list. i mean , yeah, his in this list. i mean, yeah, his wealth went went up about 150 million in the last 12 months. the time when over this

parliament, the standard of living of the average brit has gone to down a record on a record low. >> okay. well, yeah , i mean, >> okay. well, yeah, i mean, it's interesting. >> you must come and see us and tell us about the book in july when it comes out. paul. diana moran, does it matter that the prime minister is rich? >> i think that it puts a bit of a divide between him and us, the ordinary people. i have to admire him because as we were talking about earlier, he is a self—made man. so you have to admire him for that. but nevertheless, too much money, i think. could it does it in my mind. >> it puts a divide a couple of seconds on this one. neil, how do the tories , you know, do the tories, you know, airbrush this problem away? is there a solution? what can they what can they say to make it better. >> very difficult. i think it's an easy stick to hit him with the truth is he is a self—made man. he's a very, very clever

businessman. and you just have to take the back story about being , you know, the son of a of being, you know, the son of a of a chemist in southampton. >> yeah . that's it. >> yeah. that's it. >> yeah. that's it. >> i think he's a great british success story. >> he's a wonderful british success story. you're absolutely right, paul, listen. thank you so much forjoining us. we'll catch up with you soon. paul connew, thank you to suella, neil and diana. most importantly, you for your company at home and on the radio, on tv. we're back tomorrow at nine. headliners is next. here's the weather with catherine. >> that warm feeling inside from boxt boiler as sponsors of weather on gb news. >> hello! welcome to your gb news weather update from the met office into sunday. we'll see showers easing , but it's going showers easing, but it's going to be a murky start before plenty of warm sunshine in so high pressure. situated out towards the west , low pressure towards the west, low pressure further towards the east and in between. not too much going on.

a lot of light winds around so the showers that we've seen today across wales and parts of the south—west will generally fade, especially across scotland as well. but elsewhere plenty of dry weather, clear spells. but we will see low cloud returning for parts of scotland and the south—east of england, but otherwise temperatures holding up at around 10 or 11 degrees in the towns and cities . so to the towns and cities. so to start on sunday, it's going to be a murky start for some of us with low cloud, mist and fog, especially for parts of the south—east of england and east anglia. further towards the west, though, plenty of bright skies to start the day , and that skies to start the day, and that transferring across parts of wales and the north of england , wales and the north of england, but across scotland especially further east, you go a lot of cloud to start the day, with low cloud to start the day, with low cloud lingering across those coastal regions and further towards the north. cloud thick enough, thick enough for some patchy rain and drizzle . so patchy rain and drizzle. so throughout the rest of sunday any low cloud, mist and fog should generally lift and break

away to leave plenty of sunshine on offer for most of us, it will stay rather cloudy across parts of scotland , and here we could of scotland, and here we could see a few showers and especially across that northeastern coast. once again feeling cool here with low cloud but in the sunshine, temperatures recovering nicely up to 24, possibly 25 degrees. monday is a similar picture to start with. we'll see plenty of low cloud, mist and fog around, but once again that should break away, leaving plenty of sunshine a dry day on offer for most of us. we'll see some showers developing, but as we go into tuesday and wednesday, turning more unsettled with showers or perhaps even some longer spells of rain , looks like things are of rain, looks like things are heating up. >> boxt boiler showers. sponsors of weather on
