The safety of Rwanda bill is set to be debated next week over two days in the comons the former immigration Minister Robert jri is leading proposed amendments that would allow MPS to ignore last minute injunctions from EU courts that stop planes deporting migrants the Prime Minister says he
Welcomes improvements but that he wants to avoid radical measures half of child sexual abuse offenses reported to police in 2022 were crimes committed by children that’s according to data gathered by police in England and Wales half of the offenses involved a child aged 10 to 17 as a

Newws now though more from Andrew and Bev very good morning it is 9:34 thank you for joining us so the former post office Chief Paula vanel is facing calls to return around £3 million in bonuses and pension look this is coming cuz she finally handed back her gong she said she she was listening well as I said
Yesterday she must have needed a hearing aid because she should have given it back weeks and weeks ago she only gave it up because she knew it was going to be snatched off her by the forfeits committee but I think she should give back some of that money because I think
Her bonus would have been predicated on the fact a lot of those postmen and women gave gave back money to the Post which was not the post offices I want millions of pounds in fact I mean she she probably should never have had this in the first place if people were paying
Attention who would make these sorts of decisions as to what was going on at the post office with all of those innocent people being uh duped by a technology system and nobody defending them and nobody apparently saying hang on a minute this isn’t this isn’t these individuals this is the system upon
Which the post office has spent a billion quid so they I feel like the they turned a blind eye they didn’t want to admit the failure of this system they’d spent all this money on and all these poor people ended up with criminal records but buck stops at the top and I
Think it’s just not good what I find extraordinary times reports today she was on a short list to become the bishop of London extraordinary well she’s she’s turned to God now hasn’t she she’s a victim she’s got a conscience to clear hasn’t she imagine that’s the right job
If you feel like that that useless Archbishop wellby the Archbishop G thinking that she’d be a good candidate for she paing candidate because if she had any sense of of decency in right and wrong she’d have come clean and apologized a lot sooner yeah is fascinating isn’t it if you haven’t
Watched this docu drama yet on ITV which what we’re talking about I imagine this story it maybe leaves you a little cold but I think there’s about 10 million people yeah massive VI I’ve watched that now um and Brilliant it is brilliant and it’s I I found it really difficult to
Watch because I just found I was so angry I so crossw watching it it’s because it’s real life because it’s real life and because it’s the classic case of this huge corporation just stamping on these real people that were just wanting to run their little post offices support their communities and do the
Right thing and and the post office conspiring with Fujitsu to to to to just Hammer these people into the ground and we know there was a pilot scheme in 1995 96 which went wrong postmasters and postm were prosecuted and they still went ahead with it yeah I I’m really
Interested to talk to Richard T about this in just a moment actually but first of all we’re going to talk to conservative MP for South R Li in Oxbridge Steve tuckwell good morning Steve great to see you again of course to remind people you won the seat when
Boris Johnson uh gave it up in Oxbridge and you also worked as a manager for Royal Mail as well so how closely have you been watching this story how aware of it were you before the docy drama hit the headlines well I I spent 30 years
Working in Royal M which was the sister company so the post office limited up until 20 2012 I believe um so you know I I have absolute Sympathy for the the sub post Masters and sub post mistresses who I had the pleasure of working with all
Be at at arms length um had many great relationships with the with these great people and it’s it’s good to see now that the whole of parliament is is coming together to to reverse this this this terrible Injustice that’s been been bestowed on them but uh you know I think
To to quote your phrase earlier on um I had a cold cold feeling when my wife and I were watching um the ITV series is over the weekend and it’s it’s a terrible Scandal it’s the biggest um you know miscarriage of justice that this country’s ever seen and it’s really good
To see now the whole of parliament coming together to write this wrong very very quickly and I’m hoping we’ll we’ll get an announcement later today I’m sure we will Steve and that’s great and that’s all well and good but isn’t it extraordinary it’s taken this TV program which the whole country’s uh been
Captivated by to to get some action because my newspaper to Dan ma first read about this in 2013 decade ago it was first raised by a computer magazine back in 2009 what on Earth has been going on why has it taken so long and why do we need a TV drama to Galvanize
Politicians on all sides of the house to finally pull their finger out yeah I completely agree um I mean I think it has taken far too long we’ve seen how it has devastated uh families it’s devastated communities and unfortunately some people have even lost their lives as a result of this this
Scandal it’s taken far too long and I think we should congratulate ITV for pulling together such a a wonderful docu drama I think it’s referred to now um which is really sort of highlight to the issue and I think we just need to make sure now that Parliament gets right
Behind you know making this making this tragedy reversing it to ensure that you know Justice is actually done for those people that have been affected by this Scandal the the other big story this morning of course Steve is that the prime minister is facing a Revolt by
More than 30 Tor MPS over this Rwanda Bill we’ve got this group of rebels um on Tuesday they tabled amendments to toughen up this legislation what what what’s your position on this do we just need this bill to be absolutely watertight so that no appeals can be
Made yeah well what I will say is that as a group of MPS we’re right behind the Prime Minister priority to stop the votes it’s right that we have robust conversations about the fine detail that’s that’s sitting in the Rwanda bill um but I I was happy with the second
Reading I think it’s important now that we we get it through Parliament we get it through the Lords and we get those planes taken off the alternative offered by the Labour party there is no plan an actual thre the Labour party are proposing to do a deal with the EU to
Have more immigration volumes coming into the country there is no plan this is a plan which will see those planes taken off hopefully um in later in the spring um and it will will certainly help the immigration statistics for the United Kingdom we definitely do need
This build to go through as quickly as possible but Al you finally Steve you have seen the survey which shows for the second you’re running this great city of ours London is the slowest city in the world in terms of traffic moving average speed in central London 7 miles hour if
You’re flipping lucky that’s cycle highways first of course put in by your illustrious predecessor Boris Johnson uh and um all the other Road schemes uh they’re digging up roads all over the capital what how can you can we turn the clock back so that there’s a that
Motorists are not viewed as the Enemy by um politicians yeah well again as you know um you know I’m a I’m a big advocate of uh you know reversing the ules charge which was which was forced on outer londoners um earlier well back end of
Last year um you know again the the best way to to deal with this now is through the meril election and vote for Susan Hall in the meril election and rid our capital of a disastrous mer KH who’s always Waging War on motorists he’s doing terrible things now in the black
Wall tunnel uh he’s he’s enforced ules onto onto out to London he’s plowing ahead with low traffic neighborhood schemes um he’s just a constant war on motorists and the best way that we can deal with that is in the meral election uh later this year and vote for Susan
Hall who will reverse ules on day one and we’ll stop declaring war on motorists okay all right thank you so much Steve uh good to see you this morning we’re talking about this um this Rebellion this mini Rebellion against T Rich it’s 30 MPS voted he’s doomed
Because he’s only got majority of 28 good point well let’s find out a bit more from our Downy Street uh from dowy street with our political correspondent Katherine forer um good morning Katherine good morning um How likely is it looking that Richie sonat will have this Rebellion as as Andrew says of 30
People well certainly um we’ve might be in a new year but we’re still in the middle of a whole load of tory in fighting aren’t we now whether these Rebels about 30 of them would go as far as to vote against the bill that would be really the nuclear option that
Remains to be seen but certainly and Richi soon at walking a very fine line between these different groups these five groups on the right of the party um wanting the bill toughened up and then hundred or so one nation group more towards the left of the party who say
Not an inch further than you’ve already already gone now um led by Robert jri a whole series of Amendments have been put forward now uh for when the bill comes back to Parliament next Tuesday and Wednesday essentially wanting to toughen up the bill um wanting to stop these so-called pajama injunctions where
European courts basically block us from doing things we want to do sometimes in the middle of the night as we saw when that plane of migrants for Rwanda had them removed one by one so trying to make sure that can’t happen and also severely limiting the cases in which a
Migrant could appeal being sent to Rwanda if somebody was pregnant for example so that’s what they want they think it’s still the right side of the law and Danny Krueger has already been out on the airwaves saying so but on the other side Damen green who leads the one
Nation conservatives had said that the Prime Minister had looked him in the eye and said that the bill wouldn’t be changed and all already today Sir Robert buckin the former Justice secretary has said that these amendments go too far so certainly there is another Almighty row coming and you know this government is
Trying to get reelected at some point this year um people tend not to vote for divided parties so it’s difficult to see how Rishi soona is going to pull them all together but he really does need to try to do something think very urgently okay all right thank you Katherine
Katherine for there at Downing Street uh well joining us in the studio now as leader of Reform UK Richard Ty Richard your body language through both of those interviews was quite fascinating you had your head in your hands when we were talking about Rwanda and the blumin post
Office Scandal that I know you feel really strongly about I mean I do feel very strongly about both these issues on Rwanda first frankly for Steve tuell there to say that he voted the bill and it’s going to work give us a break the country’s Switched Off it doesn’t
Believe anything that this government is going to do with Rwanda if we hear about all this talk they’re going to March them up the hill and they’re going to have this Great Rebellion you mark my words whenever the vote is they’ll all just quietly sort of simmer down bill
Cash will sort of give some form of verification it’s okay we’ve tweaked a word here we’ve tweaked a word there it’ll Bean nothing everybody knows in this country it’s not a deterrent if you send a couple of hundred people to Rwanda when 30 to 40,000 people are coming across this is a complete
Complete dead cat red herring that cost us £800 million 500 million to the French 300 million to Rwanda and all we’ve sent there is three home SE the whole thing is a complete waste of time and it does nothing of course Richard to deal with legal migration which is running if you
Net migration running over what is it 1.3 million gross legal migration is running at about the city the size of Birmingham that’s the context whether it’s 1.2 1.3 million people coming in depressing British wages putting huge pressure on public services it’s not surprising housing rents are going up
It’s not surprising you can’t get a GPS appointment if every year one and A4 million people are arriving and so you’ve got that and then you’ve got this this post office and Fujitsu Scandal which I mean it takes a lot to make me cry I watched that thing I was in tears
Three times I was in tears on Monday night when I was on a different Channel talking about this with one of the vict it’s worse than awful just before Christmas this was discussed in the House of Commons we’ve all known about this MPS blathering on about it how many
People were in the House of Commons about six I think six honestly for them now to start saying it’s an outrage they have utterly failed the postmasters utterly utterly failed I’m calling for three things and I think there may be a slide available for this first of all
Absolutely there should be a law passed next week in Parliament that overturns all of the convictions they’re all unsafe 700 plus are unsafe so do that immediately don’t wait for judges to take years to overturn these that’s simply unacceptable secondly taxpayers should not be footing the bill I agree
Right the government must announce that it’s going to sue the Jitsu I’ve calculated about £500 million they’re all on the line this was their system they lied to the post office there we are there are the three things firstly you got to have urgent legisl yeah secondly the
Government’s got to sue Fujitsu and thirdly absolutely theany bosses of the post office and Fujitsu must face criminal trial they lied and I’ve read the the massive judgment in 2019 in December 19 and the judge there he said he said that the he he clearly felt that
The post office bosses and the Fujitsu bosses lied in court and he said it was the it was the 21st equivalent of believing that the Earth is flat those were his exact written words this is really serious stuff and and the coziness that’s going on the links
Between government and the top bosses in Fujitsu some of whom by the way have given hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of thousands of pounds donations to the conservative party and and the ft’s reporting today Richard I think since all this blew up uh the problems were what started being identified in 2010 20
Well 2009 I think since 2016 3.6 billion in new contracts for Fujitsu stoling so what’s going on here is that actually it’s too big to fail it’s a bit like the Cillian disaster okay where the links between the two are so oh and by the way
Do you remember when the NHS contract uh failed and the IT company them who was the IT company that sued the NHS for hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of million pounds yes V Jitsu that’s right I mean it’s unbelievable if I was I tell
You if I was in charge I would say to V Jitsu you pay out now or you’ll never get another contract with this country ever again yeah well it was the there was footage on social media yesterday of Tony Blair actually announcing how trustworthy this Horizon system was I
Don’t know whether you saw that it does go back a very very very long but I think back to 2002 just apply the common sense test right how many postmasters before this system came into place right were charged withing tens and tens and tens of thousand of you could probably
Count them on literally on the hands on the fingers of your hand all of a sudden they’re being charged with having nicked 40 50 80,000 quid give us a break it was almost the turnover of the shop For Heaven’s Sake it was basic failed the common sense test it’s an outrage what
About venos in her bonus Richard um I um be thinks I’m being too cruel I think she should repay her bonus I’d rather see her in court I’d rather see her in court but here’s the point and you touched on it in the introduction when many of these people remortgage
Their homes in order to pay the losses to the post office but the post office hadn’t lost the money in the first place so they declared as profit they did so they’ve banked all of this cash as their own profit on the back of which she’s
Being paid a bonus and many many others this goes all the way to the top up and up and up and the top of Fujitsu and they’ve all got a face trial there has to be a proper Day of Reckoning cuz you know people in their communities in your
H your Villages your Market towns you trust two things you used to trust the police and you would trust the Post Office the postmaster and if that trust is broken and you can’t trust the Post Office what’s left and some of those postm and post Mistresses said one of
The hardest things with their their collapse in esteem in their local community people looking the other way because they thought they’d been pinching their money their money um can we ask you about what Nigel farro said about reform the Reform Party and about the fact that he thinks labor is going
To be in power for the next 10 years you must have been delighted with him saying that no look I’m I’ve highlighted at my press conference last week which was actually very well received apart from a few a couple of I think slightly inexperienced broadcasters um who
Thought I was reading an auto queque and I was speaking from the heart from the passion but you didn’t spot that I don’t know you weren’t passionate enough for me Richard I was full of passion everyone else loved it it was all over the place but anyway um too long 14
Minutes and 14 I’d have done I’d have done one minute Preamble eight bullet points this is what I’m can do in sat down I did 10 bullet points and it took 14 minutes and the Press loved it you know how many press they did love it and
There were 50 press there there weren’t many people watching the libdem uh poster unveiling down in Gil Rudder about that in all serious no it’s it’s you’re absolutely right to be you you’ve got to criticize and Challenge and that’s the whole point of course look in all seriousness we highlighted that
Starmageddon is a serious threat to the country but so is a continuation of the people who have broken this country which is this current regime so both of them represent I I’m saying high taxes High wasteful government spending DFT regulations we haven’t taken advantage of the brexit opportunities Mass
Immigration that no one voted for and the vast burden job destroying burden of the cost of Net Zero you cannot grow an economy with those burdens it’s as simple as that and and that’s the only way he says he can do what he wants to
Do uh starma the 28 billion pound a year by achieving grow you can’t grow an economy with those burdens the cost of that and in every year we are borrowing way more than we are earning and eventually you run out of money I tell you I’m I’m highlighting that day is
Coming I’m looking at Matt Goodwin one of the pollsters from to this channel who’s done a bit of a deep dive into where conservative voters are going and he thinks that about 15% of those 2019 Tores who voted for Boris Johnson mainly older Pro brexit are defecting to reform
How are you going to bring over the younger voters Richard as well yeah look we’ve got to appeal to as many people as possible young voters are being utterly shafted by the housing crisis caused by mass immigration so we’ve got to freeze that that’ll make a big difference there
And the second thing is far too many young people are being conned to go to the Ponzi scheme of of universities racking up 40 to 50 Grand debt I mean it’s an absolute outrage so we’ve got clear proposals to to have zero interest on the student loans at the moment when
You come out of University unless you’re earning £60,000 you won’t even get on top of the interest before starting to repay the capital and it’s interest because we ow they owe 140 billion Richard the student loan no no it’s way more than that it’s now
230 we to move on and you’re not taxing anyone till you earn 20K I think that’s very persuasive right Rich good to see you now a minute ago when we talked about the post office we need to tell you about this the Fujitsu spokesman said the current post office Horizon it
Statutary inquiry is examining Complex events Fujitsu has apologized for their role in for their role in this suffering right still to come this morning you Haven paid up yet farmers in Germany are blockading rose in protest against subsidy Cuts you should see these pictures you do not want to W miss it

Rain rather than any snow for the South we’ve got a beautiful Winter’s day to look at but it is cold and there’s a Brisk wind blowing here here as well that wind uh wherever you’ve got it across the South or the Northeast really bringing chill lighter winds to Western
Scotland some good Spells Of Sunshine on the west coast here through this evening pretty quickly where we’ve got the clear skies the frost comes back the cloud though sticking around over Northern England we’ll see a bit more of it spreading to North Wales Northwest England times through Northern Ireland
And across Central and Southern Scotland and again with more Cloud overnight that should help to prevent a frost but a frosty night across the highlands and again in the South minus minus two even in towns and cities rural spots a little lower than that so again a chilly day on
Thursday quite a cloudy one over parts of the Midlands Wales Northern and Northern England and Southern and Eastern Scotland again the sunniest Skies probably the west coast of Scotland southernmost parts of England and Wales but for most it’s a dry day that breeze bringing a chill along the

Bill is set to be debated next week over two days in the Commons the former immigration Minister Robert jenrich is leading the proposed amendments that would allow MPS to ignore last minute injunctions from EU courts that stop planes deporting migrants the Prime Minister says he welcomes improvements
But that he wants to avoid any radical measures former special adviser to Michael Gove Charlie roelly says it’s important that the government gets the balance right and many many people across the country particularly those in the red W seats particularly people that voted for brexit those are the people
That voted conservative actually in in those those areas for the first time in 2019 they voted for brexit to Take Back Control of their money borders and laws and this comes under obviously the borders bracket um but it’s just making sure that you get the balance right between having as tough legislation as
Possible to get Rwanda off the ground uh whilst upholding International obligations in order to ensure that the scheme actually can continue uh and and and and balancing that act between both sides of the conservative party half of child sexual abuse cases reported to police in 2022 were crimes committed by children that’s according

Play GB news now though back to Andrew and Beth good morning well see we’ve got a few emails coming in actually people are very excited about we have um so we were saying earlier about the fact that headlights on cars have got brighter the RC are calling for the government to look into it and lots of you are getting
In touch to say that you experienced this uh Max says I’ve noticed the higher power headlights causing DZ Dazzle I’ve also seen on social media people looking for higher power bulbs and light units to replace their original vehicle lights because they feel that the roads aren’t being lit properly uh Jonah said good
Morning I’m 64 I stopped driving at night a long time ago due to these headlights it’s not just the glare it can Dazzle your eyesight for a few seconds after the oncoming cars have passed and Micah said it’s not just the new headlamps for a problem the use of
Fog lights when there is no fog it’s an illegal practice can be fine to given penalty points particularly Uber drivers thank you mik well I already drive and I can say anecdotally lots of my mates have stopped driving at night and they’re in their 50s absolutely this was
A big conversation over Christmas I’m sure lots of you at home had the same kind of things because actually there were particularly elderly people just saying I’m not going to come over in the evening because I don’t want to drive at night um and and some people were
Talking about getting you can get like a special sort of sunglasses that you wear at night to stop the Dazzle I think I’m going to have to get some cuz I I definitely noticed it indeed now the primac is facing a huge revolt on Rwanda the bill is coming back next week
Remember the Supreme Court threw out the Rwanda bill pretty comprehensively lots of amendments are being tabled one of the to she’s called a Tory Rebel she’s here Miriam katees part of What’s called the new conservative group elected in 2019 Miriam what you’re worried about is that
The bill isn’t going far enough it can be beveled by appeals and those wretched judges from the European Court can still intervene and stop a flight going to Rwanda if they want to yes exactly so this is the third time that the government has tried to pass a piece of
Legislation to make the Rwanda scheme work to make sure that we can get those flights off the ground so we have to make sure that this time it is successful and as you’ve said previous attempts have been thed by uh judgments by our own courts judgment by International courts that have prevented
Either individuals being taken to Rwanda or declar that the whole scheme uh you know doesn’t comply with our International agreements so we very much want this bill to work the government wants this bill to work obviously politically if it doesn’t work if this doesn’t stop the boats if this doesn’t
Result in people being taken to Randa then that’s big trouble for the party but it’s also big trouble for the country because if we can’t secure our borders using our own Parliament democratically elected by the public then what kind of position are we in so
We just want the bill to work that’s so how Hardline are you would you pre pre prevent any appeals whatsoever no but we do want to narrow the scope of the op so of course people who are heavily pregnant people who are sick people who
Have had a a bad judgment made in terms of mistaken ID Identity or a mistake made by the home office let’s say of course they should have the rights to appeal but if you allow endless claims or uh challenges along the basis of mental health that can just be proved
With a doctor certificate let’s say then we know sadly that there are tin immigration lawyers out there who will use any loophole they can find to exploit those how do you make it so black and white what what will the appeal basis be you won’t allow appeals except for these particular reasons
Which very narrowly which are not fit to fly so for example so closing it down that rout and if you think back to um June 2022 when that flight was on the Tom act but didn’t take off they should have put it in the air yes most of those
Individuals uh were taken off because of these types of claims now of course we should be sympathetic to people who have who are genuine Asylum Seekers but let’s not forget these people have have left France which is a safe country they’ve traveled on a dinghy across the most
Dangerous shipping Lane in the world uh and we know sadly that many people are trying to exploit our system so the only way deterrent works is that people are confident the deterrent is going to work the only way for that to happen happen is for the vast majority of people as
Soon as they arrive on the shore to be detained and taken to Rwanda now we’re a long way from that but we have to get this bill to work to to make the first step in in in providing that deterrent so do you think the 30 rebels of which
You are one will vote against it well we next week we’re at what’s called committee stage so this is the point where backbenches like myself and others have the opportunity to amend the bill so this isn’t about voting against the bill we want the bill we want the bill
To happen it’s about improving the bill so bringing amendments to it and will have votes on each of those individual amendments to see if Parliament as a whole wants to insert those amendments in the bill so that’s what’s the next stage and if they don’t well we’ll have
To see I mean it’s far too early to speculate because of course it’s not just us that that are bringing amendments other amendments may be brought as well the other direction the other direction from the labor party from the S&P so before we can make any judgment about what happens after that
We have to see how the bill ends up but you know we’re hoping that the strength of our argument which is that surely we want the bill to work the government has already disapplied some elements of of international conventions within this bill it’s already you know the furthest
We’ve ever gone why would you not disapply others that potentially could see it held up because the lawyers on your side like Robert Buckland who’s a former Attorney Law Chancellor saying it’s gone too far already well that’s a you know a valid argument from his point
Of view but I would point out to him that already on the face of the bill it does say that the government cannot say for certain that this complies with the ECR that’s already the case we’re already dis applying some sections of the Human Rights Act why would we not
Also disapply a couple of other sections that would protect us from having this dragged through the courts the British Courts for months and months sorry no go no go on I I just want there so much want to talk to about Maran while you’re here you wrote pece
In The Daily Telegraph about the lockdown kids and this I I know people say that we’re going on about this but I think this is um an absolute uh this is a miscarriage of justice of what we’ve done to these children for the last three years and particularly in your
Work with the Center of social justice what are the latest findings on how these kids are fairing who were either born or raised in lockdowns well the report from the social justice is really about absence from school which sadly is not getting any better I think some people including depart from department
For Education thought that uh School attendance would just naturally return to pre-pandemic levels it absolutely haven’t we particularly have a problem with uh severe absence so children who are absent more than their present at school which is I think we’re now at 140,000 children in that position um so
That’s what that that report is about and I think you know that the csj has got some very sensible suggestions of how we tackle that like how um like for example more uh attendance uh monitors or mentors mentors sorry that can help families would bespoke advice and help
And try to get over the particular difficulties that they have in getting their children to school so that would be uh one example but I think before we do that there has to be some sort of national public recognition that it was the wrong thing to close schools and
That it harmed children CU I think the problem that we have had is before the pandemic we kind of had this National understanding that you get your kids to school and everybody knew that ofstead knew that schools knew that government knew that we sh it was a social contract
If you like between parents schools and teachers overnight that was shattered because suddenly the government said oh no actually your children don’t need to be in school they can be at home they’ll be just as you know they’ll just as well educated and so that kind of mutual
Understanding and Trust was lost to restore that we have to very the very first thing we’ve got to do is say actually we were wrong that was the wrong thing to do attendance is we’ve got to get kids back to school and then proceed with these you know very
Important measures so that’s the kind of attendance side but in terms of children who’ve not yet started school or are starting school I mean the the the stats are horrifying we’ve got huge numbers of children who are starting at school not able to speak not able to some not potty
Trained uh all sorts of different issues that are directly as a result uh of lockdown and the strain that parents were under during lockdown lack of socialization it’s going to be huge for Generation when you talk to some of the key architects who were making those decisions at the time I’m including the
Prime minister in that and and Sagi Javid and Nadim zahari and Matt Hancock don’t forget the labor party Lo long and but but who you have conversations with why won’t they come out and say actually in retrospect we should never have done that well credited Nadem zahari when he
Was education secretary he did say that publicly he did say I can’t remember the exact words but along the lines of that it was the wrong thing or mistake to close school so credit to him but that is not a government position or it certainly doesn’t seem to be but I don’t
See how we can credibly say we’ve got to get kids in school if we don’t publicly acknowledge what we what what we’re wrong now I don’t particularly want to abortion individual blame it’s it’s clear that it was a very difficult time to be a minister who would have wanted
To be Boris Johnson uh in early 2020 nobody um and and clearly if schools had only be closed for three weeks then we wouldn’t be having this conversation right now I mean nobody wanted school to be closed for three weeks but it would not have been the end of the world it
Was the incremental now we must do this now we must do this without evidence uh without properly thinking through the con consequences that was what really did it and you’re absolutely right about the labor party they didn’t want to reopen schools they wanted more masks more lockdowns and for Bridget Pherson
To come out yesterday and say how could shuc she right we need to get people back to school but but we had no opposition absolutely and that’s why all these measures got through completely unopposed yeah and they were cheerleading for more lockdowns and these poor teachers we can’t send the
Teachers back to school for for which they were statistically very very low risk of being harmed um by can I ask about some of these kids though um who the missing children 140,000 is it fair to say m that a lot of them are from families that are less advantage in the
First place there’s certainly disadvantage there’s certainly much higher absence uh from children who are eligible for free School meals I mean that that was the case before lockdown but obviously this the general numbers have increased but I think it is worth looking at some of the reasons for that
This is much more problem at secondary school as you might imagine the severe absence and actually if you dig down into the data some of this was increasing before lockdown anyway but has kind of been put on steroids by lockdown and one of the areas I’m really
Interested in it is mental health and particularly for teenage girls uh levels of anxiety and depression are are quite significant reasons why children are not going to school uh and I personally think there’s a very strong link with social media I mean if you look across the anglosphere since 2010 teenage
Mental health has collapsed uh and the only obvious uh reason for that is social media and I think yes we need attendance monitors yes we need data Etc but actually we need to address this key issue that’s ruining our children’s mental health that’s meaning that they
Can be bullied as at home as well as at school um and consider whether we need to ban social media for kids and the messaging on social media is often about you don’t need to go to school kids you don’t need the kind of formal education a quick note we were joking about
Whether you should be allowed to call your Miss homely or not do you think home homely is such a a controversial word but should it be well I mean whatever I say is not going to go down well with some people the only person that matters here is AAL Clooney does
She mind being called homely if not then it’s not a problem but I think you know we could have a an extended conversation about gender roles if you called a man homely you’d probably be steady of being very Progressive I would mind yeah you
Can call me hom if you want I mean I can see why it’s hit the headlines but the only if your husband called you homely would you slap him around the chops say no is he homely he does a very good job uh at home yeah very good right Miram
Good to see you atic answer wasn’t it very um right HMS diamond and American warships have shot down a huge wave of missiles and drones fired by Yemen’s huther Rebels after the militants largest attack in the Red Sea to date well let’s say how significant this is
In the studio with us is our fabulous security editor Mark White Mark White this has been brewing a long time now because um these this is a very important piece of Waterway for food and fuel to be transported around the world if they can’t use it it adds 10 days to
The Journey gas oil prices is already going up and the America Britain is saying they’re going to defend it from these hooti Rebels who are attacking yeah and this is the 26th attack so it’s been happening for for months now in the Red Sea area because of what’s going on in Gaza yeah
Absolutely now what the uh these Iranian backed Rebels the houthi rebels in Yemen are saying is that they’re going after ships that are linked uh to Israel you know that’s debatable there have been ships that have very tenuous if any links really to Israel and also military vessels are being targeted as
Well these attacks last night specifically targeted HMS Diamond at type 45 Destroyer uh which shot down uh eight of or seven I should say of 18 attack drones that were aimed towards HMS diamond and other shipping in the area yeah it’s the largest attack today so 26th attack but it’s the largest
Attack of drones and missiles so 18 drones uh three missiles anti-ship and ballistic missiles that were also launched HMS Diamond which is um an near defense Destroyer uh well equipped to deal with aerial threats launched its sea Viper missiles also its um onboard uh self-defense guns that were
Used to shoot down these drones and it was assist by the US Navy the uh giant aircraft carrier USS uh Dwight D Eisenhower launched its uh f18s to take down some of these drones three other us ships in area assisted as well so there’s no doubt this is an escalation
And it comes uh a little over a week since the US the UK uh and about a dozen other um members uh of this Coalition uh to protect ship shipping in the Red Sea warned the houi rebels and their backers Iran that this couldn’t continue and hinting at the potential for military
Action if it did continue since then we’ve had a number of attacks including now this largest attack so far what state would we be into launch militri we’ve already got any ships left and who we’ve got we’ve got no Royal Navy personnel to put on them listen I think
It’s a very good point we have bolstered uh the uh our presence in the area HMS Richmond type 23 Destroyer um frigate is on its way to the region to join HMS Lancaster and HMS Diamond already there but they don’t really have land attack capabilities so if you’re looking at
Helping uh the Americans uh in any kind of targeted attacks on Yemen you’re probably looking at getting an attack submarine into the area who you know they have their um tomahawk tomahawk attack uh missiles that can be launched and also of course potentially uh typhoons uh out of Cypress would be
Quite a long distance to go but potentially uh out of the US base in Djibouti they could perhaps uh assist uh in any strikes on Yemen but as I say it’s been more than a week since this kind of warning was issued uh to the houthi rebels they’ve continued and
There has been other than self-defense shooting down these missiles and drones there’s been no targeted attacks on the H Rebels okay thank you Mark a lot of you getting touch at home about about um driving at night um Chris Cherry says I’m so pleased to hear your report on
Four out of five drivers having a problem with oncoming cars bright lights after dark I thought it was just me and my aging eyes I’ve invested in special night driving glasses uh but whilst it helps a little it doesn’t stop the problem you’re right just just choking

From across the UK and Beyond join Britain’s Newsroom from 9:30 on GB news the people’s Channel Britain’s News Channel 10 10:27 I’m not coughing my um guts up guts up exactly with Britain’s news and my GB news with Andrew Pierce and was I spluttering with indignation
No actually I wasn’t for once for once you weren’t spluttering with indignation but we’re talking about these farmers who are blockading roads and protest against oil subsidy Cuts look at these extraordinary images coming out Berlin if you’re listening on the radio it is gridlocked there are hundreds do you
Think there’s hundreds of thousands maybe thousands when you see the when you see the main pictures particularly at night and they’re all flashing their lights it’s incredible and we want to know why this is happening and could it possibly come here in Poland too so there’s going to be a knock on effect
It’s all to do of course with the rush to go green which we all know is absurdly expensive and unrealistic so we’re going to talk to one of our favorite Farmers if not our favorite farmer yeah Gareth win Jones Gareth morning in a tractor by the looks of it
Now you’re in a you’re not blockading anyone are you in that tractor not yet and yet being the pertinent word Gareth just explain to our viewers and our listeners why these Mass protests have happened in Germany we saw similar ones in France um and Denmark as well in the Netherlands in
Holland sorry tell us what’s been going on well again you know they’re crushing the the farmers these subsidies were put there um you know the subsidy for the red diesel um was put there so we can produce food affordably for people now I I’ve just filled this tractor up with
Diesel now if I wasn’t having a subsidy on that diesel it would cost me twice as much for that diesel so instead of100 to be filling this tractor up it’d be 200 now you imagine that you know for a farmer that’s struggling and can’t make ends meat it is a massive massive
Challenge without the subsidies they’re taking away you know to produce the food as well these are challenges that are happening worldwide and I think people to wake up and smell the coffee and and I’d like to congratulate you for at least putting this coverage on GB news because the other mainstream media I
Watched a couple of them this morning and there wasn’t even a mention of this and you know there is thousands and thousands of farmers out there protesting and I’ll tell you something farmers don’t protest unless there is a real reason because they want to be home producing food affordably for everybody
So you know to see these kind of scenes it’s scary it’s scary for us in the UK and and there’s talk you know there’s talks there’s Chinese Whispers in this country you know the government on both sides you know we’re in Wales we’re devolved in agriculture but we’re losing
Land to plant trees to solar panels you know all kinds of things that they believe is going to save the planet and and we know literally we need to feed people we need to feed people affordably and it has to be environmentally friendly and we as an industry are under
Immense pressure the average age of a farmer is 67 where is the next Generation going to come from if these politicians and these World readers don’t start to realize there is a farming food Revolution going to be across the world and Britain should be really first and foremost in building a
Better Britain on our bellies and start to back British agriculture start to eat more seasonal start to have a balanced diet and invest in our children and educate them on good food that comes from either the Earth or from the sea it’s surf and turf all this processed
Rubbish is killing our children and making the mill it’s a bigger picture than anybody else can see but we we have to be very very careful that things like are happening in Holland in Canada in the in New Zealand and in Germany Poland and France doesn’t come to the United
Kingdom because the way things are going it could be it’s galvanized such a movement across Europe This Gareth and it’s particularly why I wanted us to handle it on the show this morning because it is an absolute demonstration of people power GB news is the people’s
Channel and if this story does not sum up what is possible when the masses get together and Galvanize and have their voices heard is there any possibility that you think under the similar circumstances we would ever see British farmers get together like this because I think the British public would be behind
You because we want fresh food that is grown in this country and that’s really what all these Germans the Dutch the French that’s what they want too I I think the Dutch is a great example they built their own political party in two years is it did and it was
All down to the farmers but the farmers were backed by their public and that’s what we have to understand we’ve got a small minority of very vocal people that believe that they’re going to save the planet by not eating meat or dairy you know they’re living in Cloud cul land we
Are in a temperate climate here we’ve got 70% of our country is ideally for producing grass and we can use livestock then to transport that grass into into high quality protein or into milk or into yogurts or into cheeses and there’s a lot of fantastic Farmers out there but
We have to get the message and if mainstream media aren’t willing to do it I think get on social media and I’ll give you an example over the last six months I’ve gone up to two million followers on my YouTube channel follow my YouTube channel they’re short they’re
Funny but there’s some great messages there 2 million I’m the most followed Farmer in the world and and we got we got Gareth we’ve got to let you go but thank you very much and um uh and we’ll um that’s Gareth always interesting we’re going to
Go we’re going late to the headlines now with with Sam be Andrew thank you very much good morning from the GB Newsroom I’m Sam Francis the headlines are just after a half past 10 well our top story plans to clear the names of hundreds of post office staff caught up in the Horizon scandal will be announced imminently

Channel I think the most exciting bit for me is talking to people people who I think are ignored Often by the major news channels we’re going to give news they want to hear there’s a voice there that needs to be heard I think there’s a chance here for a diversity of opinion
To be expressed which you don’t find elsewhere it’s really exciting we don’t hold back we’re free to say how decisions that are taken here a sex is all around the country only on GB news the people’s Channel Britain’s News Channel good afternoon Britain good afternoon Britain join us Tom and Emily
To find out what’s happening in the heart of Westminster and why it matters to you weekdays from midday we bring you the most compelling stories from across the United Kingdom and from your step to our inbox that’s right we want to hear from you GB news Britain’s News
Channel 1040 you with Britain’s Newsroom on GB news with Andrew Pierce and be Turner we’ve got the former labor in P Steven pound here in broadcaster Mike Par our new deadly double act um Stephen you’re not a man of um you’re man of a certain vintage should we say indeed do
You find it difficult driving at night I think I’m described as classic no I’ve never heard you described as that a vintage I I I do find it quite difficult for a couple of reasons firstly there’s so many people driving these massive great Chelsea chariots now
That so high off the ground that their headlights are on the level with you but the other thing is it just seems to me that people are driving on full beam throughout the day the rule always was in my day that you only went on full
Beam if there’s no vehicles ahead of you but they’re not on full beam this is a point and we talking about they’re not on full beam it’s just that the new headlights are so strong that a lot of people are feeling dazzled you find it
Hard to drive at night very much so much so that I’m actually very reluctant to drive at night yeah this is there’s a lot of people saying that on our inboxes full of people say you yeah well the the new LED lights they I mean they were
Actually designed for TV studios to give you the impression that you’re in daylight you see what I mean they’re that bright and you say that they Dazzle at night do you know where they are absolutely deadly if somebody’s coming the other way over a sleeping policeman
The front of the car comes up and then it goes straight into your eyes and it looks like a full beam but it’s not it’s the ordinary light which is supposed to be horizontal but it goes vertical when you come over the speed bump and these LED lights are supposed to be progress
Yeah yeah absolutely and yet it’s stopping people’re dangerous I go up and down the A3 all the time to the coast okay and sometimes I do it after a late show at midnight or sometimes early in the morning half 5 now there are stretches of the A3 that don’t have uh
Roadside light okay the stretches four sorry Street lamps Street lamps yeah yeah now that means it’s complete and utter darkness and when a car comes the other way particularly if it’s coming around a Bend it’s coming fast it is extremely dangerous you are immediately thinking what’s my position on the road
Am I too far over am I too close to that car it’s it’s really very unsettling honestly and I think something should be done about the figures in this RAC report it is over 78% of people are making this sort of complaint actually um saying that they want the government
The RSC is saying the government need to investigate what is going on here cuz it is going to cause accident talking about it’s probably already causing more accidents it must be because the problem is they High Road accidents don’t they when we had the smart motorways it took
Years for the data to come through to work out that they are very dangerous and I bet you in a couple of years time we found out that this is a problem which the authorities are becoming aware of but don’t know what to do about it sorry we get older drivers too people
Are driving a lot old than they used absolutely but remember billions will have been invested in this new light technology before before you said um when I started driving they did not have someone walking in front with a red flag and waving a lantern before you say but
Look what what happens you in the day Pony and trap stud well it certainly was rhyming with that yes but but no anyway the reality is that around my way you know I’m a Londoner and and people there’s people there will always try to get they get extra
Headlights they get extra beam there’s always something that they want to you know smoked does whatever and I think in some ways this is almost like a fashion State here I am you know I’m I’m dazzling you so I think a the manufacturers need to look at it and B
The government needs to actually look at the regulations on this because I think the luminesence is now so bright and so serious I totally agree could basically have a game of football under those you got your first car you used to be able to actually change your light bulb you
Know you could take the front your light and then the sealed beam came along remember so you had to replace the whole light now you would literally have to replace the front of the car honest to God cuz it’s all built as one unit now do you see what I mean for
Instance if you open the Bonnet on your car which I never have on mine you can’t actually see the engine anymore it’s it’s it’s all cased in you know what I mean you can’t you how do you fix it well you got to have to get a a garage
Mechanic to fix it so if you’ve got a Mercedes you have to go to Mercedes and they know how to take the lid off so to speak and they generally just plug it in these days to a computer and that somehow fixes it right talking of tech Britain’s heat pump Target mic remains
Out Of Reach despite record installations so heat pumps are not being installed quickly enough what’s going on with this this is just another great indication of the ill thought out you know pace of us getting to Net Zero by 2030 utterly ridiculous let me give you some statistics here the government
Wants 600,000 heat pumps to be fitted year by 2028 last year 40,000 well how much do they cost and that’s the answer isn’t it well they can cost anything up to 10 or 15,000 it’s not just the cost but even if you’ve got a house these heat pumps if
You get a sophisticated one can be the size of a tennis court take up a lot of space besid the tennis cuz they need so many pipes and all that if you live in a penthouse like me you can’t have a heat pump you live in a p house I in a pent
House sorry what’s what do you have views of epom downs very oh and and and I would have to actually spend an awful lot more money paying for a pipe to come from the heat pump would it be a communal heat pump for all size of them
In in in my they are enormous and I’m doing a house renovation at the moment or I’m about to start and I looked into this CU I genuinely thought you know what not necessarily for the planet I think the science is a bit ambiguous on that but for my own heating bills I
Would love the idea that I could generate my own power stevenh and they are very big you need a huge amount of space outside your house which I don’t have in an area where we could put it and they’re really noisy well there is there’s a possibility it’s about 25
Grand yeah there’s something actually quite interesting that’s been suggested recently I mean you and I were live in West West London U they’re talking about having communal heat pumps where you can have one heat pump doing five or six houses is that right if apparently the technology can’t exist which house does
It go in it’s good question because there somebody’s Garden May a communal area there’s one there and it’s like the old estate heating systems us the you a boiler room and then the pipes would go off they always felt very stalinist those communal heating systems welcome to the when it goes
Wrong who do you blame all this time is a communist future they were always switched on in October and off in April regardless of what whatever the temperature was I mean I think that is not progress that is more I look I think we’re all agree on one thing the idea
It’s it’s a good too much actually it’s well okay it’s by and large it’d be a good idea if we did have a non-polluting heating system however the pace of the of the introduction is too rapid the cost is too high and the technology is not proven and there are unfortunate
Side effects like the rumbling the shaking and the noise and what we should be doing is insulating our houses you want to spend money government insulate everybody but I’ve already seen many many reports in the last couple of years that these heat pumps don’t actually work they don’t get your water up to
Maximum temperature you know what I mean it’s it’s t when they were first introduced we were all sold on the idea oh it’s you know if you go to New York you see an air conditioning unit outside every window you know about the size yeah about the size of a suitcase right
And said well it’ll only be that and you can hide it around the back of your house no no no no no they are literally the they can be the size of a swimming pool in your garden they do actually work amazing my cousin is the leader of
The labor group on tumbridge Wells Council that must be a very small group sorry to interrup work sorry to interrup You Stephen uh we want to just take a little a clip of former immigration Minister Robert jenrick he was talking about the prime minister’s Rwanda plans have a listen just
Now we’re urging the government to strengthen the bill because as currently drafted we simply don’t think it’s going to work to create the deterrent effect that we need to stop the boats at the heart of our amendments are two questions one how we we can end once and
For all the merrygoround of individual claims where illegal migrants helped by their lawyers frustrate their removal if we don’t do that then we’re not going to achieve the deterrent effect and legally and operationally the scheme is going to fail secondly we’re setting out to stop the so-call pajama injunctions from the
Strasburg Court that’s where a foreign Court can with even without giving reasons stop people from being sent to Rwanda that stop the flights in the summer of 2022 and it will stop them again unless we fix this once and for all is it the case that the government
Needs to accept all of your amendments for you to back this bill well at the moment the bill doesn’t work and it needs to be very seriously reformed the package of amendments works together and so we would urge the government to accept all of the Amendments we hope
That the government will respond in good faith to these suggestions and we’ve also put alongside it a very detailed uh set of legal opinions which say that these Amendments have respectable legal arguments and so they meet the test that the Prime Minister himself set for accepting any amendments and so on that
Basis I hope and expect that he will do so we well I’m a bit baffled as to why Robert jenrick who resigned as immigration manister is talking about that Andrew do you understand why well he’s leading the the revolt on the right the group of 30 dirty 30 and he he he’s
The one who wants to keep the European Court out good they should keep their nose clean frankly but he also wants to severely limit the right of people to appeal now we had Miriam Kon earlier saying the the rights of people will be limited to people if they’re not fit to
Fly what’s wrong with that Steve well the reality is what who defines fit that that’s the problem you know you get a doctor certificate the thing is it’s British domestic law that is actually stopping people flying but you know and I know at the moment there’s no airline
In the world would actually fly people to Rwanda so the government can’t use the Air Force so they’re going to have to get private charges the why can’t they use the Air Force but because you can’t have the Royal Air Force you know we got few enough planes anyway flying
To Rwanda shuttling people you know why why they won’t get a commercial why not I’m sorry they can they can they can they can get a commercial flight steeve do you mean no commercial airlines will do it because of the bad publicity no also no because all it
Needs is one person on that F to stand up and start screaming and shouting and the pilot will not take off but but they they will just hire planes from from you know Charter companies ex from Randa any Charter will AE because it’s a commercial deal and and then you put
Your own security people on the plane introduce the rules IE I’m sorry we don’t stop the first time somebody shouts I’m innocent and and dictate the policy dictated by nambi pambi lefties like Steven pound well I’m a pragmatic sensible serious person who understands that this whole idea is absolutely pants it’s for the
Bird ain’t going to happen there’s no no way in God’s green earth you’re going to get 30 th000 people no alternative do this processing here in this country the people who are shouldn’t be here whack them back the people who should be get them back we
Did it for 10 years no but but it’s much more difficult to go around rounding people up who shouldn’t be here if you’ve got a process like this and those who are coming know that they’ve got to get over this it’s got to be aess applic I say they will flood across
Steph if you say you’re going to press them here they’ll flood across because they’ll disappear we lose so the sooner get ID cards the better oh don’t you start St that’s a that’s I mean that mean it would get Block down in the of law the House of Commons and that’s we’re going
To have to walk around with that because of these people remember that we’re going to have to change the entirely how we live our life because of these people I I don’t so scared of Rwanda do you Randa plan they haven’t got an alternative so I mean I was talking to
Somebody yesterday A labor supporter who just kept you know shouting shouting the governor spent 290 million not one single person yet has been deported to Rwanda but no alternative of course you know no alternative plan and did they honestly think they were going to introduce it on day one we’re going to
Send people to Randa and spend five quid without trying to develop it and make it a credible government policy and 290 Million by the way is what absolute peanuts to what we spend on everything else you think how much we’re paying on hotels keeping these people in hotels I
Could I think all of us which is causing all sorts of problem with social cohesion stepen people don’t want Hotel report on the papers today what happened in nosy when people were slinging bricks through windows up there and get that’s we got to get them out of hotels the
Problem is we’re looking at the wrong end of the telescope here we’re looking at them once they’re here we should actually be looking at this situation when they arrive we should be processing people on a should be stopping them coming yeah hang us there’s no we can’t
Say if if they’re in a boat crossing the channel even if the Royal Navy came up and tried to stop it all they do they’ll jump in the water it’s not it’s not just labor frying to the Rwanda policy what about the United Nations United Nations
Send people to Rwanda from all sorts of places in the world from Afghanistan from Libya and yet they’re telling us the British government it’s wrong to do it well hyoc what we have to do now gentlemen is move on you’ll be back in the next hour the Royal Navy has got so

Says the bill in its current form simply won’t work at the heart of our amendments are two questions one how we can end once and for all the merry go round of individual claims where illegal migrants helped by their lawyers frustrate their removal if we don’t do
That then we’re not going to achieve the deterrent effect and legally and operationally the scheme is going to fail secondly we’re setting out to stop the so-called pajama injunctions from the Strasburg Court that’s where a foreign Court can with even without giving reasons stop people from being sent to
Rwanda well news in the last hour We’re hearing that the estimated cost of building hs2 between London and Birmingham has soared to as much as 6 6.6 billion the chairman of the project Sir John Thompson told MPS that the increases due to the original budgets being too low changes to scope of the

Party I used to vote for is only represented by a minority of Tory MPS nowadays it’s time for me to vote reform so presumably you would think Miriam is one of those MPS and Victor says if some MPS really believe the ROM plan won’t work they should wave it through to
Prove it or are they actually afraid it will work it’s a very good point why not let give it a chance why vote it down oh I don’t think it’ll work give it a chance yeah and then if it fails then so be it then you say well I told you so
What when then what do we do now an election R and you know what de say oh we’re going to toughen up for a trolls on the beaches with the French trying to do that for years and we’re going to tackle the The Gangs the people SM gangs
Well the Tory the Tory government the authori been trying to do that too to know Nigel on this issue has said with regards to sending illegal immigrants to Rwanda uh the flights do land what happens do we wave goodbye to them or are we going to pay them x amount per
Week per person to keep them forever the taxpayers expense we should be told all of the facts uh sunak is a barefaced liar and don’t forget when the permanent Secret at the home office um gave evidence for a select committee of MPS he admitted he didn’t know where 177,000
Were 17,000 just vanished gone and you like our farmer story actually listening to Gareth wi Jones and Tim says we have to love our Farmers they provide our food and therefore our health and dartmore farmers are our heart in De and if you can buy British look on the label
Yeah I was doing me too I go to my green grossers anyway uh but if I’m in the supermarket casing I always say buy British you pay with the check I pay cash or bu check and my green grosser loves me cuz I pay cash I can’t stand it
When people get a cash point thing out card thing to pay 90 P yeah give them a pound I know I know well we got to keep cash J has done such a good job we got more cash flowing around the economy now than we have in a while now this is
Going to be a a story that I think is going to get bigger and bigger HMS Diamond one of our very few Royal Naval warships and American warships have shot down a vast wave of missiles and drones fired by Yemen’s hooti Rebels after the largest attack in the Red Sea so far
That’s right so Mark White is here in the studio with us to explain this Mark this is one of these stories you think well it’s a long way away it’s over in the Red Sea it’s all about letting the trade flow freely um through that area which is important because we’re buying
The shots but why should we be concerned about this well we should be concerned because there’s a potential for a much wider escalation in that region which we would inevitably be dragged into uh but as you see also uh issues around getting that trade to the UK this is a vital
Shipping lane from Asia to the West uh up through the Red Sea and up through um the SE Canal there and if they have to go around um The Horn of Africa then you you’re talking uh an extra 10 days uh or so to that that’s going to put cost up
Prices go up it affects everybody uh oil prices uh potentially going up uh prices in the supermarkets going up as well so purely from a domestic selfish point of view then clearly it is an issue but actually in terms of a wider regional conflict it’s a concern as well we I
Think we’re just showing some of the images there from HMS Diamond the type 45 Destroyer we were given some images from the ministry of Defense as well some still images actually uh on board that ship as they were firing these missiles uh last night uh to try and
Defend the shipping in the area from this very significant attack 18 attack drones that were launched towards shipping and also uh Naval vessels and that’s the the the images here you can see the uh the crew on HMS diamond on the bridge there in their anti flash
Gear as one of the missiles another their uh sea Viper missiles is launched to try and intercept these Stones sorry to in your mark But just to be clear my military expertise is not great um are they trying to hit drones individual drones uh can’t you got to be a good
Shot uh the very sophisticated kit they can easily take out drones uh and even uh missiles some of the missile anti- uh um anti-air missiles uh that would that we’ve got the Americans have got can actually take out ballistic much far uh faster moving missiles as well so uh
Yeah I mean there’s a big debate about should we be using uh missiles costing hundreds of thousands of pounds uh to take out a drone costing you know hundreds or thousands of pounds yeah uh and the answer actually is yes because it’s not the drawn it’s the damage that
The drawn can do if it connects with either uh civilian shipping commercial shipping or indeed a naval vessel people will be curious Mark why these missiles and drones are coming from Yemen one of the poorest countries on the planet which is locked in a terrible Civil War but these are actually these missiles
Are funded by Iran yeah um because of Israel’s conflict with Hamas in Gaza yeah much of this links back to Iran and its proxies we know that the houthi rebels uh in Yemen are backed by Iran they say that they’re targeting uh commercial shipping that is linked to
Israel well that’s debatable I think some of the supposed links to Israel are tenuous uh at best and we know uh clearly as last night according to the defense secretary some of these drones uh were heading in the direction of the type 45 Destroyer HMS Diamond that was
Forced to take out seven of these 18 drones now we’re working alongside America and other allies is there a possibility this could escalate to the point where Iran uh because effective we’re shooting down Iran hardware and become involved directly well that’s what everybody is trying to avoid and
We’ve got the US Secretary of State Anthony blinkin in the region at the moment um so you’ve got the Diplomat steps that are underway by all of the regions uh all of the countries in that region that know of course about the potential damage of an escalation in
This conflict uh Americans trying to look for a way forward that can uh perhaps lead to some kind of deescalation from Israel in Gaza uh and it’s hoped if those tensions if that deescalation can happen uh then the tensions will be eased then perhaps the houthi rebels and others hezb instance
In southern Lebanon will stop their attacks on Israel and Israel linked shipping in that region but it’s very very dangerous at the moment uh as I see this is the single biggest attack now that has been launched at shipping in the Red Sea how would you say the the
Mood Across the Nation across the world actually mark from uh political leaders around the world in terms of Israel at the moment and their their U you know sustained bombing of Palestine because it’s very much slipped off the news radar but it is it is miserable over
That and and David Cameron was almost evasive when he gave evidence fors yesterday Lord camon we must call him our foreign sector about have they broken the law Israel I I think you know should have said get stuff they’re defending themselves key allies who you know in full throated support uh for
Israel in the days after the 7th of October attacks by Hamas are now very publicly saying look you know we need to find a way of De escalating this getting the aid in uh to help uh those people uh in Gaza but also of course at the same
Time David Cameron was saying this in his evidence you’ve got to have a solution uh to what Israel is facing and it’s not yet in the place where Hamas has been degraded uh to the point that it doesn’t uh pose a threat to Israel anymore we are still getting daily rocket attacks
Launched from from Gaza into Israel proper uh so clearly there’s a job of work to do even though Israel is saying the north of Gaza they’ pretty much degraded hamas’s capabilities and now they’re focused on the rocket attacks continue from Hamas because they don’t want to ceas fire their own
Record to push Israel into the sea they want to see you know the destruction of Israel uh in real politic at the end of the day of course uh they will want uh a ation of the hostilities it’s having a very heavy toll taking a very heavy toll
On Hamas itself but there’s still capability there clearly amazing statistic that uh was released Yesterday by the United Nations saying that since October the 7th 10 children on average a day in Gaza have lost one or both legs yeah that which is shocking but we have to remember how many children are still
Being kept hostage by Hamas after after the terrible attack in October you know we’ve said it before for but it Bears repeating you know Hamas has a policy of you know ensuring that its infrastructure its rocket launchers and alike are in civilian areas it knows the
Net result of that will be of course strikes from Israel that will take a toll on the civilian population that then feeds into what Hamas wants which is worldwide condemnation it’s breathtaking is cynical they use their own people as human Shields and those poor PE those poor people genuinely those poor
Children right thank you Mark um so joining us now from Westminster is our political correspondent uh Katherine forer right Katherine um good morning for our viewers bring them up to date what’s going on with the Rwanda bill it’s going to be another big week in this story for people who are just
Tuning in what are the next steps yes exactly there was a big row when it had its first uh vote in Parliament just before Christmas and next week week the bill comes back on Tuesday and Wednesday likely to be very very difficult for the Prime Minister I
Should say here in dowy Street tons of cameras were’re expecting him to come out any moment now to head off to prime minister’s questions so we know there’s lots of splits within the conservative party and a group of about 30 um MPS on the right of the party has tabled a
Whole series of amendments now which they want the government to add to toughen up this bill to make it impossible for what we call pajama injunctions basically for European courts to stop us um doing what we want to do and also to really really limit the number of people who could
Potentially um put a claim in to not to be Central around Rwanda basically restricting it to those who are unfit to fly so heavily pregnant women Etc now they feel that that’s all within the law they feel it’s essential people like the former immigration Minister Robert jenrich um have been speaking and he
Said that the bill as drafted simply will not work soel bravman the former home secretary has also said that the bill as it stands currently will fail on contact with reality so that side of the party thinks it’s essential to T toughen it up but on the other hand you’ve got
About a hundred more Centrist One Nation conservatives who think that it can’t possibly go any further at all now we’ve already heard Sir Robert Buckland former Justice secretary saying that these amendments go too far and he feels that the bill is the absolute maximum as it
Stands that that side of the party can take so I expect there’s going to be uh another big row and the government whips will be trying very very hard over the next few days to talk people around the um the one nation group saying they’re also going to table their own amendments
So um a very difficult start back to a new term in Parliament for Rishi Zak and Katherine that’s the point isn’t it he he’s damned either way isn’t he if he moves to the to the side of we were talking to Miriam capes as you heard earlier who wants appeals to be limited
To if you’re not fit to fly to the other side the the uh the one nation group of Tories like Robert buckin the former law chancellor who say it’s already gone too far because he’s worried it’s diluting the power of the courts and the judges in Europe how does he marry the two
Together yes exactly and the answer is we don’t know and we don’t know if he can because we’ve already had cabinet resignations uh Robert jri the immigration Minister who was previously a huge Ally of Rishi sunak we’ve had soel bman sacked of course but there’s people within cabinet
Who feel very strongly that this bill is pretty much right on the edge and can’t go any further Victoria Apprentice the Attorney General if the government tried to amend this bill make it even more tough potentially she might go so it’s an incredibly difficult path that they’re
Treading and bearing in mind of course too that Rishi sunak said that the government in kagali in Rwanda if they went any further might pull the plug on the whole thing bear in mind they’ve already committed up to 400 million now and going forward for the scheme not a
Single migrant sent to Rwanda and who knows whether it will ever happen okay thank you so much Katherine every time I hear that figure of 400 million’s already gone to Rwanda we’ve not had a single person on the plane and what we don’t really know yet what they’ve done
With the money they would have built um a Detention Center have they built a Detention Center a processing center I’m sure nobody’s creaming a little bit off nobody’s ever heard of any corruption in any African State have they ever right still to come Steven fry is calling for
The King’s Guard to drop the real bare fur hats but if they get rid of those hats their heads will still be bare get it oh dear you’re with Brit News Room on GP News join us every night on GB news at 11:00 p.m. for Headliners which is three top comedians going through the next day’s news stories which is exactly what you need because when the establishment has gone crazy you need some craziness to make sense of it Headliners you don’t

Buy it well not without a good l always honest always fun every weekend at 300 p.m. on GB news the people’s Channel Britain’s News Channel it’s 11:26 with Briston news when GB news with Andrew Pierce and Beth Turner so comedian writer novelist Steven fry has called a pain be honest you’re not his biggest fan are you no I think he’s incredibly sanctimonious but very clever very clever well he’s called
For an end to the use of real fur worn by the king’s God you’ve seen them they wear those tall black bare skin hats they’re a common sight tourists love to watch them at The Changing of the Guard so Johnny is now a senior campaigns manager for PETA Kate weer hello Kate
Kate wner good morning Kate Hi good to see you right I presume you are in support of Steven fry saying that these are new expose that Steven is narrating shows bears being baited shot disbaled and dismembered by recreational hunters in Canada where these King’s guards bear skin caps originate um the footage
Reveals that these Hunters are baiting bears with buckets of cookies and bagels and then shooting these unsuspecting animals sometimes with um High powerered crossbows which is a form of hunting that’s actually been banned in the UK for decades um and then we know that the
Some of the hunters sell the pelts on on to auction houses um which is where the cap makers will purchase the fur to be made into these ceremonial caps and it’s just unacceptable that the government continues to support the slaughter of these Bears when a faux befer is readily
Available it’s being offered to the mod at no cost um until 2030 in an unlimited amount and we know that it uh beats bether in terms of performance and um Aesthetics so there really is no reason why uh the mod can’t make this switch it’s interesting Kate because the king
The king um we still want to call him the prince of of course he’s incredibly alive to um the whole environmental cause championing it long before it was fashionable 40 50 years ago um he must he could just pick up the phone couldn’t he to the Secretary of State for defense
And say stop it Minister yeah and we’ve written to the king uh today and we’ve shared this new expose with him and we hope that that he uh will support you know the call and that we’ll see some movement from the mod subsequently on this issue um we
Have written to them recently and we’ve offered to pay for a new round of testing on the faux fur to compare it to the beur to show once again that it meets all of the requirements that the mod has asked for and that it’s ready to be rolled out so what are those
Requirements casate I’m wondering why they’re still using the fur if they were here what would they say that it’s I don’t know lightweight good thermal properties maybe a little bit waterproof what kind of things are they looking for in a hat yeah so it’s appearance it’s uh waterproof water retention um drying
Rate and compression testing and we’ve had uh the faux fur tested in an mod accredited laboratory and it actually outperforms beur it dries quicker it’s more sustainable it offers enhanced user comfort so we won’t see guards you know fainting on the parade ground in the
Heat heat um so really you know if you were to look at the two Fabrics side by side you wouldn’t see any difference so the tradition of wearing the Caps can continue we’re just asking that the fabric is updated to reflect 2% value like it would be a PR win for them
Wouldn’t you an easy win I mean Kate I naively I mean this is how naive I am about these issues I thought these Bears lived a happy free range life somewhere and were uh gently dispatched uh before making their way to the Tower of London to stand there am I wrong about
That no these bears are being killed with guns and bows and arrows by recreational Hunters it’s essentially trophy hunting and then uh the fur like I say is sold at auction and becomes uh bare skin caps in some cases and actually since 2017 which is when the
Faux fur was made available to the mod 498 caps have been uh created and that is 498 Bears because it takes one bear does it really take one bear for one one hat good Lord and it’s so it’s so unsustainable because they only use a tiny portion of the bare fur from the
Back of their necks um so the rest is just discarded so it’s outrageous have to change you’ve won me over Kate You’ won me over I started the day I said well I’m sure you said you didn’t care I I didn’t really care I said I do and and
Usually k i very often I very often and disagree with what your organization does but I think you’re on to a winner here and let us know what response you get from the King if you get one cheaper K are they cheaper the the faux fur
Compared to the real fur do you know to buy yes yes each cap costs about 1,700 to make with real bare fur and of course Eco pal the faux furer who makes the faux fur has offered it for free to the um mod so it will be um
Yeah really is right thank you so much Kate Kate Werner there from Peter Peta uh raising awareness of that well who knew I didn’t think I changed my mind on that one my first time I went to India we were on a coach going somewhere I
Don’t and and there was a with the coach driver stopped because there was a guy with the Performing bear and I and and we were horrified and we said we don’t want to stop it but I looked into that Bear’s eyes honestly I’m not exaggerating the bear was so
Sad it was and it was on a chain and he pulls the chain to make it perform it was so sad we said stop doing it who knew yeah yeah so I can be compassionate got frozen after all no I honestly the Bear’s eyes broke my heart oh it was so
Sad that is sad well I’ve changed my mind still to come no tax and often no taste yet they still hit your wallet so why are non-alcoholic drinks so expensive because we’re being ripped off by the supermarket again isn’t that the case first though here is your news with Sam

News show right last night on GB news Nigel farage predicted the next decade of British politics and said said you are you are going to be governed by labor well I think labor have got a decade in power almost written in already such as the level of disenchantment at the conservatives and
What they’ve done remember this in 1974 the conservative party lost the election you would have thought for all the world they were doomed after Ted Heath but a new political philosophy and a new leader came along in Margaret Thatcher they were only an opposition for one term the silent majority in this country
Agree with many of the things mark you and I agree with it’s part of why GB news is doing as well as it is I don’t know whether the conservatives are going to be replaced whe whether they’re going to be changed what I do know is that
Reform is going to play a very important role in realigning the center right of British politics to give us a proper Choice well that was 9 for I telling of course a lot of people would say and we’ve got our panel here we see what they think that the reform UK which he’s
The president of will guarantee 10 years of Labor all because it will take votes and T Steven pound for labor this in the byelections where labor majority was actually less than the amount of votes that were actually taken for reform look Nigel I think he he’s shown a little bit
Of leg here isn’t he because he’s he’s kind of is he will he will he won’t he what’ll he do he’s in a very very strong position he’s been as I’ve said before one of the most influential politicians of my generation without a doubt and he changes the weather but what’s he going
To do is he going to be on the sidelines or is he going to be you know just purely an observer and a commentator or is he actually going to get in and get down and dirty because I mean in all honesty I I think if you look at the
Stats labor are ahead but there’s a huge block of undecided people that a huge and we’re now in the world of retail Politics the old certainties of got you it’s not automatically labor or Tory there’s a hundred different flowers are blooming there and and and and Mike Par
I would argue the reason they’re so far ahead is not because people think oh that K sta inspirational charismatic he’s the man it’s because the Tories you don’t believe that for a moment Steven P it’s because the Tories have made such a hash of so many things look there’s a
Very big silent majority in this country we found that out at the last election when I think n just going up and saying oh they’re in it for a decade and all that he’s a great politician but it’s a bit naive that because we all thought or those who are interested in politics
Thought that once Boris Johnson got an 80- seat majority I said to myself that night write two terms for Boris without a Shadow of Doubt how are they ever going to overcome an 80 seat majority in just 5 years but then who was the famous prime minister who said Avent boy events
Was it thank you anything could happen I also believe two other things could happen I think labor could Jerry Mander it to make sure they get voters who are not here now I.E reduce the voting age okay and younger people through the education system that we’ve allowed to
Grow up in this country are definitely in my view being not brainwashed but you know driven towards alternative uh areas of thought and and and of course the other thing that could happen is is that they might make such a hash of it economically after the first 18 months
I’m not out a labor government right because if Angela rer invokes all the things she wants to do with red tape with strengthening the unions with reducing the ability to change jobs and all that kind of stuff there’s going to be an economic crash within about 18
Months in my view Sten yeah I have to say that I’m not entirely sure what what Mike stop talking about with the generation of young people being directed in a particular place are education is leftwing these days in this country I’m they but it’s it’s leftwing anti-
Labor believe you me but look the Jerry manding Jerry manding is about changing boundaries and parliamentary constituencies the Tes have just done that they’ve just given themselves an extra 23 seat hang on that happens that the boundaries needed change because labor constituencies the average was about 70,000 but the constituency vote
And and labor Tories 120,000 so it was completely legitimate and they didn’t do it civil servants carved up the new map well no we had some say it if remember we had to vote on it in the house of comm c up the map in the first place the
Real I’m sorry where I do agree with that is that there is a huge block of people I wouldn’t say they’re the silent majority because they’re flipping noisy they’re going to be silent when they go into The Ballot Box that’s what I’m saying people make up their minds five
Weeks before a general election that that that big block of you got the people who will be red the people will be blue and the big chunk of people in the middle and those are up for grabs I don’t care what you say it is not nailed on as for Angela rea
Rachel re is going to keep an iron grip on the finances believe you me I know her and she she is she’s the shadow Chancellor yeah for I don’t think she can she’s going to be under so much pressure remember that you know the people who fund the labor party no
Matter what you say about big business moving towards them are the trade unions and the trade unions want all their people pay a lot more money and somebody’s got to produce that money she’s also got to work out whether to go back on the 28 billion a year on the
Green charges which is part of the policy for five years I think of government so so I don’t know where all this money’s coming from no that that was labor party policy before Liz trash trash the economy and you know when the facts change you change your mind you
You’ve got to change it but look a lot of the policies that are coming out are very sensible but all of them are costed costed every single you keep saying all these policies go what policies all he does is rip up policies that he stood for when he became labor leader every
Single one of them has been ripped up 10 pledges yeah well I’m sorry I I can’t think of those 10 all I know is that on the on the green taxation thing inevitably he changes but you know what is the latest position on the 28 billion
P a year we a we’re not spending 28 million because the country can’t afford it but he hasn’t told us when this 28 billion is com in he said it’s not been ruled out it’s going to be in the second half of the parliament which bit of the
Second half but who knows I mean you can’t anticipate that much you can’t actually get a calendar he said not raising personal allowances was theft why would’t he commit to raising them because he simply can’t doesn’t know what the books are can contain until the day you take over you have these access
Talks which we all did as MPS if we thought the government was going to change the civil servants would give us access to the papers but only some of them we do not know what the treasury stats are like and we do not know what
Is in the coffers until the day the only policy we know that labor are committed to so far is Raising tax they’re going to tax private schools there there are talks about taxing uh profits from equities there are also they are also they’re also moving towards new tax bans
And that sort of stuff the only thing we know is they’re going to put up tax they’re going to tax the non-doms that will drive wealth out of the country so the only thing no evidence of that no there is the only thing we know they’re
Doing at the moment is put you know dampening the economy down not making it grow because they want more taxes the 6% of British children are at private school I can tell you this the 6% of British children about half a million kids go to private are lucky enough to
Go to private school the one thing the parents of those children know is there’s going to be 20% increase on those fees exactly that is going to change that choice option for many be the kids at eaten who were pulled out of school on the little tiny change the
Election it may not change the election but what I can tell you is those parents who are like I’m not quite sure they’re going to go actually I’d like to keep prioritizing education in terms of how I spend my money I’ve got three children that’s 60% more I can’t afford it no in
In all honesty how can you possibly justify a commercial organization which is the commercial these private schools are commercial organizations why on Earth should they have a vat tax cut when Charities don’t I’m sorry it’s just nonsense and where’s the money going to come from to provide the school places
For the children who can no longer go to private schools that’s another kid another huge cost they’ve got they’ve got to come up with and and and we all know it’s attacks of Envy we know the private school thing is all about well private schools are much
Betters State School a non State schools are not as good as private schoal should not be getting a hand out from the taxpayer for people to get a it’s not a hand out it provides great education and people who go on and are successful in life often come from perpetuates division in
Society absolutely why have you had 15 ionian Prime Ministers I’m sorry you know and how many three good education Tony Blair go to fets in Scotland known as Scotland’s Eaton abely labor front bench is riddled with PR people who went to private schools and they’re going to take that
Away from other people and the other thing of course is a lot of these private schools do have to and they do as well give their sports facilities which are often a lot better than the local that comp they give sports facilities their theaters
S I mean is it could be massive my old school the King School Chester right the number of bseries it now hands out cu I’m a an an Old King scholar okay and I contribute and some of the money I contribute through the Chester Cathedral fund goes to allowing children from less
Privileg homes to have a great education at no cost that will all have to go because they won’t be able to afford it anymore and I’m very proud to be part of a system that helps children from poor homes have great education in all honesty can you imagine a couple of kids
From slow comprehensive turning up to play football at rug at at Eaton they do it it would be embarrassing hang on my school we went our team when I was in 15 16 we went to milfield school our little comprehensive in swiland and we beat them in football played here not me I
Was watching cuz I was no good at footb now currently aiming for 40% children on on bir scholarships at Eaton I don’t think it’s necessarily the solution because they still then get pushed through the Sausage Factory of making them Posh and then they don’t necessarily represent the interest of
The people that they grew up with but anyway should we should we can we age on that we can can we talk about dry January dry January went very wet in my house very very quickly particularly last night half a bot ofed making a roast chicken Sten we’re being ripped
Off I just need some joy in my life dry gin January dry red yeah dry white white what we’ve got here is the supermarkets are bumping up the prices on non-alcoholic now I have to say here and I admit it publicly um I am not an expert on non-alcoholic drinks well
They’ve gone up 22% in Supermarket since the start of December because of dry January people like me are doing and Beverly Turner is not doing claim honestly it’s what I call a conscience contract this okay you’re a good person if you don’t drink alcohol in January
First of all I would have the trade descriptions act invoked on anything which is called non-alcoholic beer no you can have beer or you can have something that’s not beer but you can’t have nonalcoholic beer right so let’s get that straight you got to be a vegan
For one month you got to grow mosia November you got to go I mean it’s any month sacred anymore can you imagine how much worse that is going to be under labor when we all have to go around environmental social goverance and virtu signaling I want to live in a happy

I know it’s exciting isn’t it and um it’s a the first pmqs of 2024 and the first at one of our we know it’s an election year we want to include our viewers and listeners in this program so let us know if you are listening or watching pmqs with us submit your
Questions GB views atgb newws will put them to our fantastic top panel of politicians but I want to know what what Bev might ask and Andrew you’ve got some opinions you expressed on your morning show B what would you ask the Prime Minister oh do you know what I think
Would Co watch it watch it I’m going to need more than one question for that I could do it an hour with him if you’ll have a word please I have a lot of questions I would actually call him out on a tweet that he put out yesterday and
He said I want to give you that peace of mind that comes from knowing we are building a brighter future for our children that’s what I’m working on that tweet has been seen uh two million times and let me tell you the comments underneath are not positive so I would
Want to know fine great well you’ve shown no evidence of that to me over the last three years is what are you going to do to improve the lives of our children I’d of the moment I would say terrific that you’re finally acting to help these post Masters and post Mistresses but why
Did it take a TV docu drama to Galvanize the entire government machine to come up with a solution this should have been done years ago it feels like they’re all now racing to sort of bask in a bit of reflected glory on this issue and all
Say I was there I saved these poor people when they’ve been fighting this for 20 years and in terms of what your question was Bev I think actually you outlined the election dividing lines of this year a prime minister saying things are getting better yeah and a labor response saying
What do you feel better off than you were 13 years ago and I think in a nutshell that’s probably it isn’t it Chris that’s right and Andrew on your question I think will we hear from Sir Ed Davy sir Ed Davy about A’s Knighthood will he return it over this post office
Scandal and would he apologize even for being post office Minister and ignoring Alan Bates is intrigued to speak to him and will he even be in the chain before the for primes his questions cuz if he isn’t that would be pretty damn uh shameful yeah normally the LI Dems are
Quite Keen to ask questions aren’t they in pmqs they get one every seven weeks but it’s odd not to try and ask one it is brilliant to see you two there in Westminster doing this for GB news Gloria got the red dress memo marvelous good luck thanks Andrew and thanks B is fast
Approaching midday this is GB news Britain’s election Channel pmqs live starts right now it’s midday on Wednesday the 10th of January this is pmqs live on on GB news with Gloria depierro and Christopher H just one moment Richie sunak and Sir go head-to-head our prime minister’s questions we’ll have full coverage of
Every moment and we’ll be getting full reaction from cabinet minister Esther McVey and labor party chair anaise dods so let’s say welcome to you what we’re going to do today by the way is solicit those questions from our listeners and viewers gbvs atgb news.com and just as well as the do the post
Match analysis we’re going to be putting our viewers and listeners questions to you do you think that’s a good thing to do a very good thing I want to hear from the public absolutely yeah you are the people’s channel so absolutely that’s right it is an open format that’s what
You uh absolutely uh questions now then the the the Horizon Post Office Scandal saw hundreds of innocent people sent to prison people like a former constituent of mine who went to jail for 3 years now during this Scandal the leader of the liberal Democrats was the the minister in charge
Of the post office is he in charge of the post office um this is the same liberal Democrat leader who in the past has called for the resignation of over 30 prominent people in this country who have made mistakes in their job so does the Prime Minister agree with me that
The leader of the Liv them should take his own advice and start by clearing his desk clear his diary and clear off Mr Speaker Mr Speaker this is one of the greatest miscarriages of Justice in our nation’s history people who worked hard to serve their communities had their lives and their reputations destroyed
Through absolutely

Ed davey said he was lied so name names
I hope Ed Davey ,and Vennel are going through hell and severe anguish about their futures, and in Vennels case, terrified she is going to be imprisoned and bankrupted. See how she likes her medicine
