top form he was on good form and we covered years no problem well look he was on very good form and I was very pleased to have that opportunity to discuss these issues with him and not least uh this

latest GB news headlines for now I’m San Francis back with you for another update at 10:00 for the very latest GB news direct your smartphone sign up to news alerts by scanning the QR code or go to gbs.edu for/ [Music] alludes welcome along it looks as though Ed milleran was on the brink of costing the British taxpayer tens of billions of pounds just a week after taking his position in the cabinet Mr millerand is already the most expensive policy maker in British history in 2008 he pushed through the final version of the climate change act it made us the only country in the world legally committed to cutting our emissions of CO2 by 80% between then and 2050 even then the government projected that this would cost us up to 734 billion the latest figures suggest that for Britain to reach this target it would now cost even more around 1,300 billion pound Mr Miland is of course reluctant to put his own money where his considerable mouth is here he is being asked about electric cars you’ve got one I haven’t yet it’s a work in progress Practice What You Preach I it’s a work in progress I we we’re actually on our way to buying one before uh lockdown uh it it is going to happen I promise you I I have bought an electric bike but it’s it’s it’s on its way then today this article emerged millerand overrules officials with immediate ban on new North Sea oil it says that the energy secretary has decided that Regulators will not approve Pro a new round of drilling that was slated for confirmation in the coming weeks now this is backed up by a comment from Ed Miller Ban’s team which said we will not issue new licenses to explore new fields and will not revoke existing oil and gas licenses we will manage existing fields for the entirety of their lifespan okay well then it seems to have dawned on people that the energy oil and gas companies might be a bit angry about this and they might take legal action they’ve already spent hundreds of millions of pounds on this and if the government lost that legal action who would have to pay oh yes the British taxpayer not that Milan would care about that of course then the unions got involved Sharon Graham unite general secretary said it is quite frankly irresponsible for labor to keep plowing ahead with the guillotine ban of new oil and gas licenses when there is no clear plan for jobs we simply cannot let go of one rope before we have a hold of another until we have clear plans and more importantly investment we should not be turning off the Taps so then came the reverse feret all of a sudden this story was nonsense and a complete fabrication and totally untrue Ed Milan’s track record suggest that he doesn’t care much about spending huge quantities of taxpayers money though does it he said that he’d relish fighting a general election campaign on Net Zero and today it emerg that the government will no longer defend a decision made by the Tories to allow a controversial new coal Min in Cumbria so the new secretary of state for housing communities in local government Angela Raina described it as an error of law but where are we going to get our power well Mr milleran sums for Great British energy don’t add up it relies on Ed Miller Band only investing public money into projects that go on to work so you know and then encouraging private investors to invest more themselves so the public have a right to wonder I think whether or not there is an Eco Zealot at the heart of government holding a pen over a chair that you’re all paying for let’s get a thoughts to my panel tonight I’m joined by Daddy’s Telegraph columnist Allison Pearson I’ve also got conservative peer Lord Bailey and former labor party advisor Matthew ler Allison I’ll start with you on this is Ed millerand actually just an eoon N zero Nutter I cannot tell you how absolutely flabbergasted and angry I am rishy hid him in a Cupboard during the election where we but yes we can we can we can see see why it’s juvenile posturing Patrick with British jobs tens of thousands of British jobs many of them in north of Scotland are dependent on North Sea oil and gas we’re going to be dependent on fossil fuels until at least 2050 as our own climate change committee has agreed and let me just give you one example we give Norway every single year4 and5 billion pound to pay Norway for gas which they get from the North Sea in the field next to our lovely field could we get our own gas out of the North Sea and spend the 145 billion pounds on something that we might be nice like Shor Start programs for children or housing for our own young people but Ed millband is wedded to decarbonizing the grid by 2030 it’s not going to happen and he is going to he could really cause labor some serious trouble yeah indeed and you’re right that they kind of did keep him quite hidden away during his election campaign but now he’s Unchained isn’t he Ed Mand is off the leash and straight away it’s oh no we’re not going to do any more of this stuff we’re not doing it and then the reverse fet comes and this story is completely not to Total fabricated nonsense of course I just wonder with that milleran what how long we can stop him from doing stuff that is completely Bonkers that affects us all more importantly how long how long k arm keep him if he keeps doing this he’ll become a problem and let’s be very clear Ed milleran is so wedded to this now he’s lost the idea that he needs to be practical he needs to be pragmatic he’d rather be right in his own mind than pragmatic for the British public and if we if we all there’s one thing we all agree on a cost of living crisis if you do something like this that crisis will become an absolute emergency they’ll have to Reign him in and what he will find is running government is very very complicated you are not the sole power in the country legal system that allow companies to come after you for the bottom line and they will have to cuz they have employees jobs that they have to protect yeah indeed I mean you know Ed Miller Band on this has got a track record of absolute disaster when it comes to spending the Public’s money doesn’t he and now here he is in a position of power and we’ve got the you know the the altar of green wokery for him to just sacrifice himself and indeed all of us on from now until the end of time I mean is he is he actually fit to be in office yeah I absolutely he is and I’m glad we’ve got an En SEC who who committed to Net Zero with a party behind him and a prime minister behind him that needs we need to deliver it but it needs to be delivered in a sensible way which is why I think look they’ve got their wires cross today about whether I mean it’s quite a it’s quite a complicated story because labor is absolutely committed to North Sea oil and gas production which is going to continue uh for those existing Fields there is a question about the new licenses and Labor’s committed and just won an election on not issuing new licenses some of those licenses um uh I think what there’s confusion today is between the fact that they’re not going to basically advertise for anymore versus revoking the ones that were just about issued of the death of the Tory government and it seems that the ones that were issued on the to government are going to be honest it this matters because Great British energy right Great British energy there isn’t a plan for Great British energy right so they’re saying that we’re going to invest 8 is they’re saying that we’re going to invest something like 8.6 I think billion pounds it is we not being clear on whether or not that’s buying existing green Energy stock which would not add at all my understanding is for energy invest here’s the thing here’s the thing Matthew said it’s a complicated area the one person it shouldn’t be complicated to is the minister for cuz if so we are doomed and again this is so fundamental not only to our cost of living but to our national security if we are held to Ransom by bad players like we were Russia we are doomed they’ve got to have a very clear plan for two reasons one all the social and security reason but two so that we can develop it properly this will cost our country a great deal of money if we don’t don’t do it correctly we are stuck it’s I agree with you sh we’re going to do it correctly why why is that milleran not piping up about the amount of private jets K St and Co already we’re not going we’re not going to do it uh properly Matthew because it can’t be done in the time frame they’re claiming it’s going to I think you’re right about the the decarbonizing of the grid carbonizing the grid there are issues is going to be 2030 all these electric vehicles we actually just saw him saying he hasn’t got an electric vehicle if you look on the government website right now under what his priorities are okay one of his priorities Matthew is to encourage the world to act by Leading by example which means we all have to suffer in the vain hope that XI jingping one day decides we’re on a path to moral for got to say this I’ve got one of the things I ha most of all I’m sorry I’m sorry but I’m so annoyed but as I hear a I hear a lot in Parliament about our International reputation I want it want to make it quite clear no nation in the world cares what we’re doing about Net Zero they have their own and they will only do their own plans they will not follow us that’s not true cuz we’ signed up to Global agreements Sean hold on a second they cannot follow us cuz we don’t have a plan we do have a plan and you you’re talking about the Chinese the Chinese are the world’s leaders in electric vehicle production so I want I want let me finish please also the world throwing up cified look look I want Britain to be at the the Forefront of green technologies because the Biden government has invested tens of billions of dollars in the in the green New Deal there I don’t want Britain falling behind I do think there is a sensible uh way of doing this I think there’s a way that Sharon gra from United says that protects British jobs and helps British workers transition I do think that the the particular demand demand to get the grid done um uh uh is actually going to be an issue because there’s an issue physically about building it that’s really important there you’re right there is an issue physically in building it which actually if you translate that means it can’t we haven’t got the infrastructure apparently there AR enough wires in the world according to the GMB the world to the UN for the thing Ed Mill B wants to do right basically look out of your kitchen window because 3 months time there’s going to be a pylon there okay our country is going to be covered in pylons that’s why the greens won in suff on only on pylons I’m against pylons I’m going to go and tie myself to a p no plan there’s no plan there’s there’s lots of warm get frazzled there’s lots of warm words but there is no plan and this is so and you know what’s wrong with this it’s all topped down we can send 28 billion on this look at it the 28 now Sean we dropped the 28 billion but can an ordinary person afford this electric car can they afford a ra can I just say remember joing the general election Ed was absolutely clear that if you voted labor labor was not going to force you to rip out your boiler by 20 gas fire boiler by 2030 unlike the Tories they might strongly incentivize you to do it but well the to we going to force you to do all right I wonder if this is where this is where the labor tax issue actually unravels first which is if these major major companies all just do one from the North Sea and elsewhere where and you haven’t got those windfall taxs and you haven’t got all of that and then you haven’t got the infrastructure in place to do the alternative green things that could be a Zone particularly as committed to increasing the profit the tax on the profits is due to pay for other things sorry that’s happening already because these big uh gas and oil companies if they think they’re going to behind the windmills and the Renewables they do not want to invest when they know they’re going to be eighth in the Peck and that’s happening already Patrick look we’ll have to watch this space when it comes to aded milleran but uh yeah watch out he’s got the he’s got the kind of wild eyed look of a man who’s just been Unleashed you know here we go here we go I can do all the Eco stuff still to come a secret recording uncovers the woke Guff being fed to British school kids I don’t agree with the government saying I can’t teach critical race Theory but that’s also because I know that I would do a better job of teaching critical race Theory than people I’m going to be joined by a guest who tells me just how concerned should be about things like critical race Theory being taught to young kids plus you might remember Paul the octopus but who has Walter the orangutan picked to win Sunday’s Euros final well we’ll have to wait and see but up next as kiss Arma prepares to release tens of thousands of inmates early in a bid to prevent jails becoming full will crime go up under labor retired police officer Norman Brennan goes head-to-head with former prisoner and charity founder mark Johnson that should be good see you in a [Music] sec Britain’s Newsroom weekday mornings from 9:30 well we’ve got quite an extraordinary story to talk to you about now because a triple amput war hero is launching a bid to become the first to sail across the Pacific Ocean non-stop solo and unsupported wood uh was blown up as a teenager by the Taliban in Afghanistan but now he’s hoping to change the perception of disabled people and raise money for other limbless veterans like himself and Craig joins us now morning Craig you are extraordinary you are planning to take up to 80 days to sail from lapaz Mexico to Japan yeah how many miles is that it’ be over 6,000 amazing amazing and it will take you how long the minimum it’s going to take me is 6 days it could be up to 80 yeah and that’s on your own you’ve done plenty of this before haven’t you you’ve done lots of solo sailing yeah I’ve done quite a bit of solo sailing but not as big as this it is the world’s biggest ocean after all and it why that particular route I wanted it to be a challenge not just for me but for anyone right so any able-bodied person can look at this and go wow that is difficult yeah and so that was the main drive then it’s become a bigger thing than that now

celebrations from the beautiful city of Belfast and right across the United Kingdom it’s all Happening Here on GB news Britain’s News Channel welcome back to Patrick Christie tonight coming up an astonishing real life recording that exposes the woke ideology being taught to kids in our schools but first will crime go up under labor it’s time now for the head to head so the labor government is to announce plans to release prisoners in the coming days to ease overcrowding in celles speaking to reporters on a trip to the NATO Summit in the US cir stama said some of what we found is shocking not so much about the finances but I have to say on prisons the situation is worse than I thought it was I’m pretty shocked that it’s been allowed to get into that situation it’s Reckless to allow them to get into that place however one figure from the previous administration hit back saying we held our nerve on this for months and found other ways to keep the system operational and get new prison places online labor have bottled it so with as many as 40,000 criminals to be released early onto our streets will crime go up under labor let me know your thoughts bying to GB news.com you can tweet me at GB news go and vote in our poll while you’re there but I’m joined Now by retired police officer Norman Brenham and former prisoner now charity founder and bestselling author Mark Johnson chaps thank you very much looking forward to this look Norman I’ll start with you I’ll be honest with you I am finding it hard to believe that by releasing as many as 40,000 criminals back out onto the street early that crime won’t go up under labor but what’s your thoughts it actually will go up under Labor uh policing is in crisis we haven’t got enough police officers more are resigning than actually join in all the experienced officers are gone uh we’ve got knife crime epidemic levels we’ve got shoplifting epidemic levels as well as car theft all two of those are costing us2 billion pound each a year we’ve got so many criminals out on the streets that should have been sent to prison but because of the overcrowd and already there there’s two people or two types that go to prison uh Patrick one is where the crime is so serious and the other is where the crimes are so persistent of course if you commit a very serious crime like a rape a robbery gun crime you have to go to prison if you’ve exhausted all of the alternatives to imprisonment then the magistrates and judges have a right and a duty and no alternative but sent you to prison so if we’ve got the right people in prison Patrick how can we have too many people in prison we clearly haven’t got the prison places or the foresight of this problem yeah I mean it’s possibly another area that has not kept up with the population explosion that this country has seen in the last 20 30 years or so Mark I’ll wh it over to you now because from from my perspective just a you know guy just goes around his business every single day you know I see things happening in my local shops like people just walking in and nicking stuff right and they don’t seem to care about any of the consequences obviously we’re all well aware of things like knife crime Etc I just wonder by by having people released earlier than anticipated what kind of message it sends to those people if we already have people who don’t fear the consequences what’s going to happen now well I mean strangely it suggests that before when the prison numbers were kind of under control that um that we had some kind of Rehabilitation techniques in prison uh and programs in prison that actually worked and quite frankly that that’s never been the case the reason that um you know people go to go to prison and have you know for a number of years uh being severely neglected actually um but um the the the prison system itself I mean it’s sort of a consequence from very over politicizing the justice system for the last 15 years for sure um where you know they’ve they’ve said that the rhetoric is tough on crime uh longer sentence stuff there’s no evidence to say that longer senten is uh reduce reoffending at all you’ve got America to look at 1.5 million in prison one in nine people the in American population in prison yet they’ve got higher reconviction figures than than we have I think what you’re looking at is like 5 years ago they incre the the um conservative government um increased the summary conviction from the magistrates courts up to two years and that’s a group of people that aren’t that aren’t really trained that aren’t represented the community and actually that’s that’s increased the prison numbers the other one is I’ll say is 15,000 people in British prisons now are there for recall so they’re not actually committed crimes they’ve like not turned up with respect to that though isn’t it that they committed crimes they were released and then they broke the bail conditions and now they’re back again so I mean some would argue that that maybe indic Cas they should released in the first place you know I will come back to you okay fine I will come back to you mate but look I just want to say so knife and gun crimes robbery and theft are currently rising in Britain um there is a shoplifting epidemic at the moment it is apparently it’s worse for 20 years figures show Almost 1,200 cases of shop theft of being reported every day that is up by a third in a year um there is also a little bit of this going on as [Music] well people yeah Norm you know what do we do about this is there a case to say that there’s much point in locking somebody up for 10 years with no Rehabilitation making them serve their entire sentence and then they are unemployable afterwards I mean this new prisons uh guy timson has put his money where his mouth is the way he runs his shops and things like that he does employ a lot of uh people who are leaving prison and you know is there much point in keeping people locked up for longer in your view well the alternative is we just release everybody and we have Anarchy on our streets the thing is where somebody has committed such a serious crime or persistent crime when they’re in prison they’re not plagu in victims they’re not plagu in society and let’s actually look at what prison’s all about it’s to punish to deter to reassure and to rehabilitate now I can tell you now Patrick there are tens of thousands of people on the streets of Britain that should actually be in prison but weren’t sent there so we’ve got them on the streets we’re now having probably tens of thousands of others released after only 40% of the time what message do that send I’ll tell you what message sent weak sentencing on offenders is tough sentencing on the victims and society and the thing is is if there’s no Rehabilitation or correct rehabilitation that should be worked at the last government they closed 17 prisons failed to to build five and K St andet kooper cannot say they didn’t know the problem they were shadowing this government for 15 years I think there is I think there is there is and it is by the way not just to do with prisons we are going to see this for pretty much every single department for probably the next few years where it’s and there might be some truth in this by the way but the labor party are going to say oh gosh we’ve just had a look at this it’s even worse than we thought so we’re going to have to do more so I think there is there is a bit of that going around you’re absolutely right to point that out um I I’ll just uh I’ll just bring you back in mark on this now I I heard what you said about America fine I understand that I I would possibly counter that by suggesting that some countries that do have really harsh laws and I’m not for a single second advocating the kind of judicial system they have in Saudi Arabia for example but I imagine the crime rate in Saudi Arabia is quite low so I wonder if that kind of nullifies the old softer softer gently gently approach Mark well no I mean you know this there’s two sides to this I mean the disinvestment into prison and Rehabilitation I’ve got to tell you I I’ve just spent 16 days in Six British prisons right and it’s the default Mental Health institution fact right so 70% of all people in there we’re prescribing our way out of one problem and prescribing our way into another and the whole drug trajectory is changing from heroin uh legal street drugs now into second and third sentences on prescriptions that they actually got on entry into prison in the first place so when you know if you’ve got if you’re committing a crime and it’s drug related or whatever and you’re going into prison the first person you meet is a doctor and you’re getting a prescription you’re not getting any kind of programs because of the Staffing the underst Staffing um probation uh when you get out is literally over capacity by 130% in London for instance so it’s it’s neglect from the state you know what I mean so why are why are we them if they can’t be put under probation I can tell you this well simply because the political decision because justice has been politicized they they they’ve put the retoric out to the public about being tough on crime but we haven’t had the capacity to house that group of people you’re an ex offender you’re an ex offender for 45 years I’ve been a police officer and the leading campaign on law I have picked up the devastation that you leave behind now the thing is I’ve got no problems with people being given an alternative to imprisonment but when you breach them and all these people that tell me that uh you go to prison to learn new tricks I can tell you thousands of prisoners that I’ve actually interviewed arrested and charged that there’s very few new tricks to learn they see prison as a short rest bite to go out and offend and if we’re going to go and release tens of thousands on top of all the others that should have been in prison but are not I can tell you Patrick there’s a perfect storm coming and you will get me back in a year or two if I’m still about real you know the this s reality from a prisoner perspective right is that we’ve got a situation that even though there is literally um nothing in prison to rehabilitate people it is better than actually their lives out in the community and that’s the that’s that’s the perception of large numbers of people in British prisons at the moment that’s reality there’s only one option that they’ve got and I think now is the time to do it and that reduce the prison numbers to be able to build build back an effective Justice have already been a victim once victims have already been a victim once the public have been protected from them and now we’re releasing out people all right guys all right we’re out of time we’re out of time but thank you very much again I’ll say this you know we wanted a head to-head and we did get one so both of you thank you all right look who do you agree with do you think that crime’s going to go up under label just quickly on this it’s only going to take one serious serious incident I think for this whole policy to completely blow up all right only going to take one of the early release lot to go on some kind of mad spree all thing will blow up and we’re seeing already the labor party blaming this on the Tories aren’t things were so bad the only choice we’ve got is to let this lot out so if they were that confident that this is going to work would they be saying all of that but anyway Bob on X says uh obviously time to arm yourself your own safety well Bob I’d probably Rod back from that one slightly I’ll be honest with you but Leah says this government needs to be sued for every crime committed by released prisoners all right well Rick says it’s gone off under the conservatives because so many people cannot afford to eat or heat their homes until the poor in this country are paid better money crime will always go up okay all right now your verdict is in 95% of you expect crime will go up under labor 6% of you say it won’t coming up benhabib has been sacked as Deputy leader of Reform UK and he’s come out swinging at the party’s top brass I’ll got the load down from reformed spokesperson an Wham shortly but first British schools well I mean they went woke a long time ago but anyway if you don’t believe me just listen to this secret recording I don’t agree with the government saying I can’t teach critical race Theory but that’s also because I know that I would do a better job at teaching critical race Theory than other people yeah there’s a lot more where that came from next I’ll ask the COO of conservative friends of the Commonwealth sonil Sharma if the government should ban critical race theory in the classroom and whether or not kids are being indoctrinated stay tuned hello good evening welcome to your latest GB news weather update brought to you from the Met Office it looks like it’ll be a pretty cloudy day for most of us on Friday there’s a risk of some very heavy showers across the Southwest as well now for most of us high pressure is Building in Just for a time for the end of the week and into the start of the weekend that means it will turn that much drier through the next few days but there’s still a risk of some showers and through this evening I think central areas most likely to see the cloudiest skies and a risk of some rain through this evening also some areas of rain might move into the far Southeast from the near continent where Skies remain clear though to the north parts across parts of Scotland it could be a bit of a fresh start down into the low as single figures by tomorrow morning but for most of us a fairly mild start but as I said Sunshine is going to be a little bit limited through Friday Northerly wind drags cloud in perhaps some more heavy rain to the far Northwest of Scotland throughout Friday morning some Sunny spells though coming through for Northern Ireland Southwestern areas of Scotland also some areas of Northeastern England as well but here we’ve got a Northerly wind and that’s going to keep the temperatures down through the day and as I said there is a risk of showers across the South Coast throughout the day particularly as we head into the afternoon into the Southwest we could see some thundery heavy downpours but for most of us elsewhere it should stay dry through Friday quite a lot of cloud around though so without with that lack of sunshine it’s not going to be a particular warm feeling day and we could see some heavier rain moving to the east coast of northern England later on in the day so for most of us temperatures in the high teens at best possibly scraping 20 or 21 degrees in the far Southeast Saturday there’s little in the way of change we’ve still got this rain lingering across Eastern coasts of northern England and parts of Scotland and once again we could see some fairly heavy showers breaking out across parts of Wales and Southwest and England but in any Sunshine it will feel quite warm over the weekend particularly as we head towards Sunday when I think it will be a bit of a drier day and we could see temperatures climbing into the low 20s weekdays on GB news wake up to breakfast every day from 6:00 a.m. followed by Britain’s Newsroom at 9:30 at noon it’s good

news and if an hour is not nearly enough for you go to gbs.edu at 9:00 p.m. where we can truly get into the nitty-gritty of what’s going on GB news Britain’s News Channel hi there I’m Michelle Juri and I’m going to take a second to tell you all about my show jub Z we start off with the issues of the day we then bring in both sides of the arguments we get rid of the disrespect and then you throw me into the mix and trust me I’ll tell it exactly how it is and then of course the magic ingredient you at home we mix it all together and what have we got in my opinion the best best debate show in town Monday to Friday 6: to 7 on GB news Britain’s News Channel welcome back to Patrick Christie tonight and a recording has been Unearthed of a teacher appearing to promote critical race Theory with their students here’s a listen of it I don’t agree with the government saying I can’t teach critical race Theory but that’s also because I know that I will do a better job of teaching critical race other people so critical race Theory would say you can’t be racist to White culture and so it’s kind of like you know it’s like when people say oh the theory of evolution well it has the word theory in it so it can’t be well actually scien say we use the word theory even when we’re like 95% sure the way the government make it sound it makes it sound like you know half of people believe something and half people don’t believe something when actually it’s probably closer to like 80% of sociologists but well the school involved there said that there’s been no complaints and that the clip was taken out of context but should we be worried about woke ideology like that infiltrating our schools I’m joined now by the CEO of the conservative friends of the Commonwealth sunel shamas sonel thank you very very much I mean when you hear things like that being said in schools you critical the critical race Theory would suggest that you can’t be races towards white people Etc that that teacher clearly feels he knows better than the government putting critical race On a par with the theory of evolution I mean what do it make what do you think of that I think it’s totally absurd and it’s really worrying that this you know this ideology that’s been mainly going on in America of critical race the is now being imported to the UK um yeah critical race theory is is is simple it’s it’s focusing on our differences and it’s rewarding victimization and I think it’s something that we really need to be very wary of and very careful that it doesn’t continue to spiral into the UK because this is something that I think is it’s only going to grow and I I don’t know what this government stance will be when it comes to critical Race 3 but I think we have to be very careful that we don’t see a very almost an Americanization of our UK schools I’m not really sure what the benefit of teaching an incredibly contested and some would argue actually quite IR relevant race Theory when it comes to uh this country’s history to a load of people you would imagine in many schools the majority of whom will actually be white as well I just wonder what kind of psychological issues that I could have on children well I think the the bigger thing Patrick people should be focused on when it comes to school is white boys they are the group of children who are suffering the most they’re the ones who are uh doing the least well in education and all this will do is make that situation even worse we’re teaching them to feel guilty we’re teaching them to feel bad about things that happened almost a century ago if not longer and all that’s going to continue to ruin their confidence and so it makes no sense we we look at all other ethnic groups you look at Indian culture uh you look at British Jews Chinese all these races are doing better than British white boys and considering the majority of our population when it comes to Workforce is white and they are male that’s really concerning because these boys are going to become one day men and these men are going to take on jobs and considering that they’re going to be um not doing as well on an educational scale that is bad for all Races in this country because they’re going to make up majority of the workforce and they’re declining in standards is something that we should be talking about a not critical race Theory yeah I mean it does make me laugh really when people say oh I don’t actually really think that you can be racist towards a white person all of that stuff I mean I’ve had people be racist towards me I mean yeah all right it’s not keeping me awake at night but it has happened I mean it is a thing that can happen anyone can be racist to anybody else as well it also makes me laugh when you hear about schools oh we’ve not got enough funding you know all right okay well what about all of that month-long Pride stuff that you’ve somehow found the money for what about all of this resources and the time that you’ve got to teach kids incredibly contested rate Theory they seem to find the money and the time and the resources for woke stuff just maybe not for Math and English it’s bizarre you know these children should be going into school being learned uh to be the brightest and best pupils and it’s just not happening it’s happening in other countries hence why uh their productivity is better than ours um I think we’re more focused on things that are Irrelevant this is not going to help any other the children when they get a a real job whether we’re talking about Pride or crtical RAC what is the purpose of of teaching this if not just creating division um so I think it’s it’s really bizarre it’s really concerning and the the focus of these schools should be to try and make our children clever and push them further um education wise and that will improve us when it comes to productivity and work it seems really bizarre that we’re focused on things that are just irrelevant again it’s something that’s been contested In America which is where we’ve seem to have imported from it’s completely irrelevant I think even there let alone here um and it’s it’s it’s bizarre that when now sitting and discussing this well indeed and look I would like to thank you very much for your time this evening I do to talk to you about this again soon so I’ve got a feeling that we’re going to be hearing quite a lot more about this stuff and I I just feel as though there’s something Brewing here and hopefully we can do a bit more to highlight it on this show CEO COO of the conservative friends of the Commonwealth there son sha you take care thank you very much coming up Jonathan Ashworth lost his seat to a pro Gaza candidate and it’s fair to say he’s not happy do you condemn Netanyahu yes or no see I am not going to have these guys I’m just a simple question do you condemn Netanyahu I’m not yeah we’ve got quite a lot more of that coming your way were these campaigns a threat to democracy do not want to miss my mono out 10 but next Ben khabib lashes out at the reform UK Top brass after he sacked as Deputy leader so is the party actually United from what’s going on I want answers from reformed spokesperson Al Wham she joins me next [Music] good afternoon Britain your lunchtime update on the stories that matter across the UK from breaking news an insightful analysis inspiring stories and Lively debates you comparing yourself to a former prime minister which is it stay informed stay updated stay entertained I just don’t know how anyone would not want to be there every weekday from midday we are good afternoon Britain only on GB news Britain’s News Channel Channel GB news breakfast every day from 6:00 a.m. no it wasn’t just us who celebrated um the big football match on U Saturday Prince William was in the crowd in dorf and couldn’t help but she was relief when England scored and over the weekend it was also announced that the Prince of Wales is set to start in a new two-part documentary on ITV covering his mission to try and eradicate homeless well let’s talk about this and much much more uh with Angela Levan Royal biographer who joins us in the studio I’m glad to hear that this documentary has been made Angela because um I worried that he made this big announcement about homelessness and I thought goodness me here is somebody could maybe do something about this and then it’s all seemed to have gone quiet he’s been very busy with it actually he’s gone all over the country to see different areas and how they have been and and to try and change people’s attitude to homelessness that there’re people who need help and um want to get back into a normal life I think it was 2009 he slept out in the street to see for himself what it was like and he also helps people who are selling the what the magazine the big issue so I think he was actually just covering the basic about what it was like for him and how he can now um uh help other people he and uh Katherine are putting three million pounds straight away into that and it’s going to be that money come from their own um Foundation you know yes they’re not taking it from our tax or anybody else’s he wants to do this so badly because of his mother you know she took them to see people who were homeless and even if he can’t do everyone he can help people be kind and understanding news the people’s channel are the newspapers getting you down my wife didn’t divorce me that month struggling to separate the wheat from the trap I know that it’s a bit of a circus at the best of time well don’t worry Headliners has got you covered we’ll take the burden of reading the day’s news and if we get depressed who cares it’s an occupational hazard frankly that’s Headliners on GB news from 11:00 p.m. till midnight and the following morning 5: till 6:00 a.m. on GB news the comedy channel now just just kidding Britain’s News Channel welcome back to GB news now as tangam deire speaks out against intimidating Muslim candidates does the pro Gaza mob represent a threat to our democracy frankly when will the left wake up to it that’s what I want to know but first we welcome reform UK’s immigration and Justice spokesperson am whim now reform UK has decided to have a hierarchical shakeup after they won five seats in Parliament announcing Richard TI as their new Deputy leader Zia Yousef as chairman and Lee Anderson as the chief whip so the new structure however does leave former deputy leader benhabib seemingly out in the cold just a week after he failed to win his Welling BR seat at the general election he did hit back earlier today he wrote I have just been informed by Nigel farage that Richard Ty is taking over his Deputy leader of the party consequently I no longer hold that position I am considering my position more generally in light of this change I’ve leld concerns about the control of the party and the decision-making process I will reflect on all of this well and thank you very much for joining us now um I mean is benab right to suggest that there might be certain issues behind the scenes here at reform it doesn’t seem like a particularly united front now uh I have been speaking to Ben be this afternoon uh and as he says he is quite literally reflecting on the situation that has arisen now it was quite obvious um first of all your Chief work’s got to be in Parliament so that had to go to Lee Anderson secondly it’s also quite obvious that once Nigel had come back as leader Richard Ty was in limber for some time I mean he had no formal position uh so obviously the obvious position of him as Deputy leader um and that leaves the two previous Deputy leaders uh being asked to do other things um on which as far as I can make out they’re reflecting which is fine I suppose one of the issues is does appear to have been quite a meteoric rise for Zia YF who you know let’s be honest until a couple of months ago or even maybe a few weeks ago was not as well known as he is now I just wonder if there are issues of of loyalty there when it comes to pan no I I really don’t think they are I mean the party is profoundly grateful for all that benhabib has done and I for one fervently hope that he keeps on doing it because he is our spokesman for the union and he has been terrific in the work that he’s done in Northern Ireland and I don’t think that anybody else could have done it uh as well so um no I I think you know this is a very straightforward business there’s been a reshuffle um and people have now got to think well they want to go from here okay all right well look I’ll wies on to another story K starm has popped across to the United States this week where his potential plans to rebuild Britain’s relationship with the EU received High Praise And there’s a lot going on I think you’re you’re seeking closer ties in Europe is good for all of us in transatlantic Alliance I think it’s a great idea that we’re going to be working together on is that the best advert for brexit ever you know someone like Joe Biden endorsing closer times with Europe he know what day of the week is well yeah come on he doesn’t know what day of the week it is and you know he obviously had that scripted and and managed most of it uh but the fact is he is anti-british he is anti brexit we know how he behaved in Ireland uh and uh you know talked about not letting the Brits screw around and and I I’m quoting him now not being w uh that that was those were his words uh so I mean I don’t expect him to be friendly to an independent Britain he’d much rather have us in Europe well tough Joe that’s a matter for the British people not you yeah indeed but but it actually feeds me into my next Point here which is especially really in your brief in Your Capacity uh with a focus on migration when it comes to reform as well because migrant madness has once again hit the Polish border so spear wielding illegal migrants have launched a deadly Rec attack on EU border guards okay it’s left several injured one 21y Old Guard died right the barrage of missiles came from the Bellar Russian side of the border now this for me an is a big problem what the labor party looking at doing at the moment well they say oh we’ll stop the boats and we’ll look at some kind of returns agreement or whatever we can with the EU yeah fine but unless we can stop that lot coming in we could end up with spear wielding illegal migrants here couldn’t we but I mean the fact is that the that if we go down the route of agreeing any sort of free movement with the European Union anything at all in return for closer cooperation then you know we’re going to be absolutely out of control and we’re already out of control and K St is doing nothing about it let’s be clear about that you know by ditching Rwanda without putting anything in its place other than a lot of international talk which is actually what he saying um you know I I think he was quite right I forget who said it today but some conservative said you know he’s oh James cly I think he’s actually hung you know a great welcome sign from The Cliffs of DOA and he has yeah I’m just going to ask I don’t know if it’s possible if we could just have another look at some of those um spear throwers there because I think it is really quite graphic stuff and you know it does emphasize really what the problem is so yeah it’s all very well and good for K starma to say oh you know look hey we’re going to scrap Rwanda and we’re going to smash the gangs and we’re going to do all all of this but that is something we’re seeing on our screen today that he is not in control of he’s not in control of the Polish border and he’s not in control of what people other countries decide to let through and there is nothing if we were to sign up to some kind of EU illegal migrant quota system there is nothing to say that one or many of those people wouldn’t end up here as a result of it they just wouldn’t have taken a boat to get here we’d have flown them in and I mean it’s worth pointing out that if they’re behaving that way it’s very difficult to see them as you know poor SS fleing persecution I mean they are not uh and uh you know that we have to be very clear about and uh you’re quite right um you know if there’s any give at all uh either in the terms of quoters or in terms of freedom of movement or anything of that sort or in terms of uh what restrictions we put in place as far as migrants go any laxity in that could indeed result in that sort of thing over here I mean it is find the whole thing absolutely terrifying really seriously that you know we are we are okay the Rwanda thing was was was a bit of a dud it’s been an expensive dud we’re not going to get any money back from Rwanda R blame Randa yeah yeah give us our money back I mean we broken the agreement not them yeah we’ve defrauded ourselves I mean we’ve basically defrauded ourselves so we’ve had essentially all of the cost of Rwanda without ever really even giving it that much of a chance to work I’m not convinced it would have worked anyway but we are where we are with no other in place as far as I can tell at all You’ got spear throwing illegal migrants breaking into Europe as we speak potentially making their way across the continent to us and what is to stop them but just time for one more quick one with you an if that’s all right because among those people who voted Tori in 2019 but not in 2024 so people who went and voted reform really Nigel farage is by far the favorite candidate to be the next Tory leader on 25% what are the chances of that do you think an uh I don’t think they’re very high I’m sure we will look favorably on applications from conservatives to join reform uh but I don’t think we want to run that Rubble at moment would you have so bra if she applies okay all right and W come thank you very much you take care I’ll see you soon coming up I’m joined live in the studio by the former Tory MP and chair of the 1922 committee sir gry and Brady we’ve got to get to the bottom haven’t we of what on Earth is going on with the to leadership race but next

to alleviate the intense pressure on prisons Sakia starm is proposing to free inmates after serving just 40% of their sentence it comes after he said he was shocked at the levels of overcrowding in prisons admitting it is worse than he first thought in the US two congressmen two more congressmen in fact uh from Joe Biden’s own party are now calling him for to step aside in the race for reelection Democrats Greg Stanton and Ed Case are the latest in the line of politicians and celebrity backers including George Clooney to distance themselves from the president it follows growing concerns about his age and ability to beat Donald Trump in November’s election but after a meeting with Joe Biden at the NATO Summit Prime Minister Sakia stama said he thinks the president’s performing well it was on good form and we covered years no problem well look he was on very good form and I was very pleased to have that opportunity to discuss these issues with him and not least uh this uh question of our special relationship which is very important to him very important to me and very important to our two countries staying in the US and a lawyer for Alec Baldwin has been questioned uh been questioning rather a police technician over the investigation into the shooting on the film set of rust which killed a cinematographer if you’re watching on television you can see here live pictures from inside the courthouse where those hearings are ongoing the trial is taking place in Santa Fe in New Mexico uh Baldwin’s lawyer Alex speo suggested agents were more interested in Prosecuting the Hollywood star than finding the source of a live round that led to the death of haa Hutchin in October 2021 you can see there Alec Baldwin in shot on your screen there as he watches lawyers deliberate with the judge the actor is on trial charged with involuntary manslaughter which he has strongly denied swimmers are being advised against using an Edinburgh Beach due to a

smartphone sign up to news alerts by scanning the QR code or go to [Music] gbs.edu ISM in Britain Jonathan Ashworth lost his seat and with it a potential cabinet position he lost to an independent candidate who was supported by a man who is now facing terrorism charges that man shot this video unrelated to the charges against him I must say ACC costing ashth in the street do you condemn Netanyahu yes or no see I am not going to have these guys I’m just a simple question do you condemn Netanyahu so labor has been reluctant to call out the Islamic political issue in the past well now it’s hurting them I have never known a campaign of such vitriol such bullying such intimidation built on the foul and obnoxious lie that I was responsible for genocide that I had the blood of gar and children on my hands this is the campaign that was run by a minority of bullies a campaign was organized nationally by a national organiz gation called the Muslim vote whose campaign was clear on the website punish MPS well he’s not alone here’s Shaban mmud now the Justice Minister I don’t think it’s acceptable to make threats to people I don’t think it’s acceptable to send masked men outside a meeting of women uh with the hope of scaring them and forcing them out I don’t think it’s acceptable uh to start saying don’t vote for someone they’re not a Muslim I don’t think it’s acceptable to shout Infidel to activists in the street that is a whole other level of um uh violent uh vile politics well quite and we all remember this from labor front bench of Jess Phillips don’t we was an absolutely horrible campaign the most aggressive most intimidatory uh not just of me but of the people in my constituency people being intimidated people being told that God uh will judge them if they vote a certain way which is an electoral offense um and um yeah it’s been pretty aw for want some of my activists have their tires slashed on Election Day not really naming the problem though are they and look here’s tangam deaner who was going to be digital culture media and sports secretary before she lost her seat to the greens she’s outlined a bit of her experience it’s easy to craft a narrative that goes your MP didn’t vote for a ceasefire if your own party hasn’t said we voted twice for a ceasefire and publicly and seeing Billboards vandalized saying you enable genocide would no no I really haven’t the people who put you at risk are the people who chased down the street after some of my colleagues who put pictures of me and genocidal liar or whatever it was they threatened me the people who stood outside labor party meetings and other events they threaten democracy but her solution to this and this is what I think many people find incredibly frustrating is that she thinks that labor needed to do more to just explain itself to these people the party doesn’t want to look to those issues of what did we actually say about Gaza Kia was working as a future Prime Minister on getting back to the peace plan I’m so proud of that but where was that written I was saying on the doorstep and he didn’t say it but we didn’t hear it so the party’s got a problem there I think but the party failed to deal with them properly I think the lack of a strong narrative had consequences I mean come on really and as far as the establishment media goes in the run up to the the election Channel 4 went out and found a rather fruity guy canvasing for reform who said some horrific things and then that led the news agenda 4 days I’ve been calling out the problem that those labor MPS have faced for months you remember this from outside the office of Russian ARA Ali MP months and months ago why are you here sh on on sh on labor courted these people they ignored all the warnings now they’re complaining about it because they’ve turned against them the solution cannot and must not ever be appeasement let’s get a thoughts of my panel tonight Daily Telegraph columnist Allison pearon also got conservative peer Lord Bailey and former labor party adviser Matthew ler Allison how do you feel when you see people unable or unwilling to name the actual problem here well we know that Jess Phillips is um no shy retiring Violet she’s a you know she’s a very powerful um articulate woman and she was booed horribly at her at her count where she did survive uh unlike you know there’s a lot of um labor constituencies which are under threat now from from the Muslim vote and I think it’s very disappointing it they were prepared to say horrible men were vilifying us or saying you’ve got blood on your hands but there’s still a hesitation isn’t there Patrick about naming what it is and I think there’s extreme fear of being found guilty of islamophobia and these people it is a minority of very very unpleasant people and I think that they are prepared to exploit that weakness and it is it is a weakness we cannot have a minority an aggressive religious minority in this country trying to dictate British foreign policy and once they’ve done that over Gaza what happens next segregation of men and women we’ve got areas where pubs aren’t allowed you know we cannot have this it’s sectarianism very I’ve seen this stuff firsthand I’ve been calling out for months I’ve been right in the middle of it for months on several occasions actually and if people like Channel 4 or the BBC or whatever had really wanted to do a number on some people at this election in the way that certain people decided to go after reform we’ll emphasize what that guy said actor or not was absolutely aoly I think everyone can agree with that however if they really wanted to do a number on people all they would have had to do was follow some of these independent candidates around over come back they we interested look there there’s two problems here firstly is are these people receiving the same treatment everybody else is in politics if a Tor MP uttered anything of this equivalency they’d be hounded out they’ have they’d be doing law for have the police around there all the rest of it so why do certain people who say certain things don’t have to face the music that’s very important and the other thing as well it’s normalizing a super super dangerous aggressive form of campaigning it starts online with people um organizing pilings now they’re turning up outside people’s homes outside the constituency office this is a to democracy and and ites being in public life physically dangerous yeah so go I’ll ask you about this do you think it is a threat to democracy and the kind of followup to that is when you see tangam deire there saying that the labor party needed to do more to essentially appease these people I would argue why well I mean I think I think she’s right that that that that that perhaps there wasn’t clear there wasn’t clear communication of the policy but that doesn’t mean that you should ever give into bullies I mean look Jonathan spoke out very very clearly and passionately there I’ve known Jonathan his from when we were both teenagers and involved uh in young labor together so long ago it was still called the Young socialist um and uh you know and Jonathan’s passionate commitment uh to the labor party and to social justice the idea that Jonathan you know got blood on his hands and people following him down the street is utterly intimidatory behavior and I I’m really glad that he’s come out strongly uh today and said that and said that we need to look at this and I think you’re right Sean what we need now I think we can all agree on this is that those people who are elected to Parliament on a single issue without scrutin I think you’re right the mainstream media took their eye off the ball because the story wasn’t there need yeah they need to be F they need to receive the same scrutiny that anybody else would my my main issue with this apart from it’s a threat to democracy and there’s an issue with Public Safety and stuff but people have been calling this stuff out and saying this is a problem and now it’s hitting a few people like Jonathan Ashworth you know and all of a sudden he’s got bolders BR now he’s lost his seat he’s out there complaining about an organization called the Muslim vote we’ve been talking about that on this show well we talked about that’s but that’s the issue it’s an issue it’s a blind spot to certain communities I bet if it was a Christian vote they would get confronted if it was a Tor MP they would get confronted people who run the so-called mainstream media this is their duty to look at this and but importantly it’s a shame that de Nosa seat CU she’s one of the good ones right but this now comes down to K St he’s not the leader of the opposition anymore he’s the Prime Minister and he has to call them out he cannot C these people because of the risk they are to all he has to call them out and it means more coming from him than anybody else we’ve got Allison we’ve got testimony from people there saying that they campaigners their canvases who were really just ordinary local people aren’t they majority of that were getting tires let down massive amounts of threats people knew where they lived dogs abuse absolute dogs abuse in the streets that puts people off going out and and and campaigning right so that is a real core threat to democracy it’s Mafia style isn’t it yes it really is and there’s also a strong element of Mis we as you said we’ve had one of these guys recording a foul takee where he talked about you know women will be going to hell and things like that something I’ve been concerned about for some time is the heavy postal vote in some of these constituencies how many of those women are being given access to their own votes and this is again Patrick’s they steer clear of it uh you know it’s it’s a very very it’s seen as being a toxic issue I don’t quite agree with what Matthew said because you’re almost saying that you know these people took their eye off the ball they they a lot of the mass media they deliberately don’t want to talk about this and with the the labor vote going them I was being generous but you could be right there are a lot of Labor constituencies now where despite the huge apparent Landslide a lot of the majorities are very slender now when you’ve got a lot of constituencies with only two or 3,000 majority this opens the field for more of these guys to move in and I would use the word blackmail and holding absolutely and that because what one of the things that actually hasn’t been talked about much is this was an issue not in constituencies just where they came close to winning the Gaza campaigners but in some constituencies the Gaza campaigners who were going to come third or fourth but theyve significant enough um that that that that skewed the result so that people only won by a couple of hundred where otherwise they might have won by that all right guys well look thank you very much another the top start to the hour coming up I’ll deliver the very first of tomorrow’s newspaper front pages and after Ole Watkins gave England reason to dream should Kama Grant the nation a bank holiday if we win the Euros plus why do we now hate this arang I telling you why we hate this orangutan anyway next so as 2019 conservative party voters who left the party for reform say they want Nigel as their leader would he be able to unite the Tory party I’m very pleased to say I’m about to be joined in the studio by the former power broker of the Tory party so gram Brady he’s live with us and he’s next stay [Music] tuned if you want your news to be straight talking this is the nightmare for the conservatives again down to earth it’s not just notum where this is happening is it and most importantly honest hardworking middle class taxpayers they’ll get the book thrown at them they catch me Martin dorley Monday to Friday 3: till 6:00 p.m. on GB news Britain’s News Channel good afternoon Britain your lunchtime update on the stories that matter across the UK from breaking news an insightful analysis inspiring stories and Lively debates he comparing yourself to a former prime minister which is it stay informed stay updated stay entertained I just don’t know how anyone would not want to be there every weekday from midday we are good afternoon Britain only on GB news Britain’s News Channel every Saturday 10 till 12 we’ll bring you all of the news that you need to know we’ll also remind you that there is so much to smile about it’s my favorite time of the week I get to relax enjoy some lighthearted stories and let Ellie teach me about fashion too that’s Saturday morning live every Saturday 10 to 12 only on GB news Britain’s News Channel GB news breakfast every day from 6:00 a.m. Khloe Kardashian has come under Fire after posting a picture of her six-year-old daughter wearing a full face of makeup yeah the reality TV star said the youngster was participating in a dance recital and that wasn’t an everyday occurrence so this morning we’re asking is it ever okay to let children wear makeup well Jo us now is journalist Julie cook so Julie it’s a child wearing full Rouge bright red lipstick air tied back looking very very stylized very much I think like a young adult is this really the sort of thing we should be doing with small children oh I think it’s absolutely fine I mean first of all in Chloe Kardashian’s case it was a dance recital so it was very much a kind of performance element to it she said herself in her post it wasn’t something they do every day she was taking part in a a dance activity so you know I think she’s Vindicated on that front um but I I’ve let my daughter play with up since she was three um when she was three she showed a distinct interest in my makeup palettes going through my stuff she’s 10 now and while I don’t let her wear a full face like a drag queen I do let her wear you know a bit of mascara on a weekend if she wants to I don’t see any harm in it clearly if you’re a child of a Kardashian who’s paid millions of dollars to endorse Cosmetics you know that’s part of the fabric of their family my concern though Julie is putting those pictures on social media where people can see them we live in an age now where you know wrongin are scaring the internet all the time a lot of girls do enjoy putting makeup on it’s almost like a self-expression thing it’s like painting on a canvas they’re just trying to be a bit artistic I I don’t think it’s um necessarily asort of sinister as as we’re making out and I think as long as you’re not posting pictures everywhere or putting them at risk of harm I don’t see any danger the people’s Channel join me Neil Oliver every Sunday night at 6:00 p.m. on GB news and if an hour is not nearly enough for you go to GB news.com for special extended episodes online every Friday at 9:00 p.m. where we can truly get into the nitty-gritty of what’s going on GB news Britain’s News Channel welcome back to Patrick Christie tonight we’re only on GB news now coming up I’ll give you a very first look at tomorrow’s newspaper front pages but first I welcome former chair of the 1922 committee sir gram Brady now a bombshell new GB news poll has revealed that among those who voted Tori in 2019 but not in 2024 so essentially reform voters Nigel farage is shock Horror by far the favorite candidate to be the next conservative leader on 25% Boris Johnson comes in second place with 12% of the vote SW braan achieving double the support of Camy badok so s gra I’ve got to ask you about these figures now you does the T leadership race risk tearing the party apart even more than it already is do you think I don’t think so I think obviously we are now in opposition we’re in opposition in a very small parliamentary party and odly I came into Parliament first in 1997 uh in the shadow of a great big labor Landslide my experience then actually was the party started to pull together in Parliament uh I think we realized there was a lot of work to do there was a responsibility to provide a proper opposition and to hold government to account there are very few people to do the work even fewer now uh and I think that we also started to spend a lot of time together and started to realize we had more in common than we had that divided us so I hope the same thing will happen again now indeed it was quite unseemly though I think the first thing that really had to be done was the new election of the chair your replacement and that kicked off didn’t he I had Mark franois in the chair you’re sitting in here now telling me that he didn’t recognize Bob Blackman that it was a well kind of rigged election it was a sham election of course that that was nonsense of course the election was done quite quickly because I think it was important that we had people to speak up for the Parliamentary party uh I’m obviously not involved and I agreed to go and count the votes because they wanted an impartial person to count the votes so I was there uh when all of that happened uh what caused it was that the whips I think in an effort to be helpful have put a message out saying what the timing of the vote was now I think the timing of the vote had changed between that the first message and and the whips putting that message out and then the 22 had changed it and of course the 22 is completely independent from the whips so I don’t think there’s any malice in it but the whips up at a different time out uh and the 22 quite rightly decides it own time do you think that conservative party members should be allowed to choose who the next leader is I I mean I’ve always said I think when the party is in government there is a problem with that because you’re choosing a prime minister because the Parliamentary party can obviously throw a prime minister out uh because a vote of no confidence will do that so I think there’s a Discord uh in that uh situation in opposition uh which we were in opposition of course when the current rules were written and the Constitution was put in place I think it’s entirely reasonable to allow the members to have a big debate and a big uh vote at the end of it and to have a a significant role in choosing the concern though that you in their Infinite Wisdom the current conservative MPS might actually select a couple of really quite dud candidates because I would argue maybe Theresa May was was kind of she had a coronation didn’t she that didn’t go particularly well rushy sunak it was been a disaster so so so should it not just be up to the people who want to stand so let’s say you end up with five choices and all of them go to the members well of course you can make an argument for that and it’s not an unreasonable argument it isn’t what’s in the conservative party’s Constitution the Constitution says that we say we are no longer one of the uh the Parliamentary conservative party has to provide two candidates to the members in the countries of choose between comma unless there is only one now in a situation like any other election uh if the second candidate drops out as happened with teres May’s election Andrea ledson withdrew uh slightly different when richy sunak was elected Boris Johnson had the numbers to stand he we’ verified that and he chose not to go forward to an election if you only have one candidates in an election that person wins and it’s the same in a in a general election as well uh but the constitution of the party makes it very clear what we have to do and I’m afraid the constitution of the party is very difficult to change and would take a long time to change who should be the next leader of the Tories I I I I know all of the candidates obviously I think a lot of them have got great strengths and I have my own uh preferences I think I’ll keep my Council on that for the time being though no no clues I mean come on you know there’s the King maker aren you well what I uh what I think is really important I think it’s perfectly proper when people say the party has to have a proper debate and think about what went wrong and think about how we can do better we also need to remember that we have a constitutional Duty and we have to provide a proper opposition and it’s going to be much needed because the government’s majority is far far too big you raise that because this is this is a concern that let’s say you wait until Conservative Party Conference which may well happen I can see the logic behind that maybe but in the meantime we could end up with I don’t know depends how quickly they do all these things but we could end up with you know a Labor budget a completely radically different immigration policy I mean all sorts you know votes for kids for goodness s we could end up with all of this right so and and you guys might not be ready for that so what would your ideal time frame be well I’m not going to try to dictator time frame it’s not my job to to be involved in that now what I do think is critically important is that my colleagues my successors Bob Blackman as chairman of the 1922 committee the executive and the party board are cognizant of that Duty which is not just to think about ourselves and think about the kind of debate that might benefit the conservative party we do have an absolute constitutional Duty as um the Parliamentary opposition his Majesty’s official opposition it’s the job that my colleagues in the House of Commons are required to do and so we mustn’t lose sight with that yeah okay I don’t think I’ll be quite reassuring to to a lot of people really but um another aspect of uh things you I me you mentioned there being about the official uh official opposition but there is the potential that K St uh might find that his official opposition is sitting behind him actually on a couple of things one of them is this potential Rebellion on the two child benefit cap which could be just around the corner so you got the likes of John McDonald and Co there really whipping it up I mean he could now be forced by the people he’s got behind him to increase the benefits you know with it massively increasing the welfare state it could be a problem I thought it was astonishing a few days ago seeing K starma saying how welcome it was to have such a huge uh majority I think any wise politician will recognize that too big a majority is bad for their own party it’s bad for the government and it’s certainly bad for the country uh what you need to have is a parliament where some things can be in contention where there is some question and the more there is a a challenge from the opposition side uh the less the government benches themselves will feel entitled uh to provide that opposition so I think you’re absolutely right the danger for the labor party with that enormous majority of course very small percentage of the country voted for them as well which is a very unhealthy situation I think creates a lot of potential instability uh for such a big majority you would think it would be very solid but I think it’s a very thin uh very vulnerable one uh and they will be finding a big Challenge from their own benches and it’s going to be a very important test that may well come quite soon as to whether they are in a position to deliver on the Promises they made about fiscal discipline uh whether they are really serious about that and if they face that first Rebellion down and you know I think it’s important they do or they will lose that fiscal credibility uh then uh what’s going to happen the next time will there be a bigger revolt and and we’ll start to see just how tight of grip uh K dmer and his colleagues really have the it is going to be fascinating one because that really for for a lot of people on the left and on the hard left you know the two child benefit cap they see that as as an offense you know that’s offensive but actually there are a huge amount of financial implications if you get rid of that if he can stand that down fair enough but I think I he might struggle so gra thank you very much pleas great to have you on the show I hope talk to you again very very soon and uh good luck with everything all right and coming up should we go bank holiday if football comes home on Sunday since shifted so isn’t it I’ll tell you what K thas said plus why has England lost all faith in this orangutan yes I promise you that there is a slightly more serious undercurrent to all of this I’ll reveal all but yes before all of that I’ve got the very first look at tomorrow’s newspaper front pages stay tuned hello good evening welcome to your latest GB news weather update brought to you from the Met Office it looks like it’ll be a pretty cloudy day for most of us on Friday there’s a risk of some very heavy showers across the Southwest as well now for most of us high pressure is Building in Just for a time for the end of the week and into the start of the weekend that means it will turn that much drier through the next few days but there’s still a risk of some showers and through this evening I think central areas most likely to see the cloudiest skies and a risk of some rain through this evening also some areas of rain might move into the far Southeast from the near continent West Skies remain clear though to the north parts across parts of Scotland it could be a bit of a fresh start down into the low single figures by tomorrow morning but for most of us a fairly mild start but as I said Sunshine is going to be a little bit limited through Friday Northerly wind drags clouding perhaps some more heavy rain to the far Northwest of Scotland throughout Friday morning some Sunny spells though coming through for Northern Ireland Southwestern areas of Scotland also some areas of Northeastern England as well but here we’ve got a Northerly wind and that’s going to keep the temperatures down through the day and as I said there is a risk of showers across the South Coast throughout the day particularly as we head into the afternoon into the Southwest we could see some thundery heavy downpours but for most of us elsewhere it should stay dry through Friday quite a lot of cloud around though so without with that lack of sunshine it’s not going to be a particularly warm feeling day and we could see some heavier rain moving to the east coast of northern England later on in the day so for most of us temperatures in the high teens at best possibly scrap 20 or 21° in the far Southeast Saturday there’s little in the way of change we’ve still got this rain lingering across eastern coast of northern England and parts of Scotland and once again we could see some fairly heavy showers breaking out across parts of Wales and Southwest and England but in any Sunshine it will feel quite warm over the weekend particularly as we head towards Sunday when I think it will be a bit of a drier day and we could see temperatures climbing into the low 20s in the GB Newsroom we bring you the news as it happen happens with our team of dedicated journalists across the UK GB news brings you accurate reporting of the day’s topical agenda when the news breaks wherever and whenever it’s happening we’ll be there this is GB news the people’s Channel Britain’s News Channel I’m Nana aquer this is GB news Britain’s News Channel the 12th a day to celebrate history community and family here in Northern Ireland join me Arling Foster and me doie bitty as we bring you live coverage of the July 12th celebrations from the beautiful city of Belfast and right across the United Kingdom that’s all Happening Here on GB news Britain’s News Channel I’m Emily Carver this is GB news Britain’s News Channel [Music] yes this is Patrick Christie tonight we’re only on GB news and it’s time to bring you the very first look at tomorrow’s front pages we go to the Metro come on England May you Reign Over Spain but the king pleads do try to win it by the 90th minute so there we go that’s what’s on the front of the Metro the telegraph violent prisoners oh sorry let’s go to the mail I got ahead of myself The Daily Mail labor accused of Scare Tactics over full jail so warnings of collapsing Law and Order within weeks as 20,000 inmates are set for early release to free up sales this is labor letting crims back out on the streets early isn’t it we’ll talk about that the guardian water bill Rises show contempt for customers uh yeah fine all right Union warns prime minister over public sector pay deals interesting this K St is on a collision course with unions after playing down the chance of real terms pay increases for public sector staff in forthcoming negotiations that is going to be one to watch that everybody uh what should I go to now what should I go to the times in Gareth We Trust fa wants Southgate to stay for the World Cup of course they do they kept him in anyway J Southgate has got a job for Life there but anyway prisoners to be freed after 40% of sentence and it is on that topic that I introduce reintroduce my press pack Daily Telegraph columnist Allison Pearson conservative peer Lord Bailey and former labor party adviser Matthew Allison crims crims everywhere under labor well far be it from me to be rude about the previous conservative Administration but what a bloody mess they’ve left to clear absolutely I mean the prisons are full I do agree with this timson guy they’re getting in I think that’s very good and he’s saying a lot of women are in prison including some as I’ve said before who’ve been in put into prison for not paying the BBC license fee um uh they’re full they full look the water you know sewage in the sea everywhere you look utilities are are in a terrible state so um yeah yeah they’ve got to do something I think it’s terrible there are lots of men out on probation who have been violent criminals or sex criminals who are then repeat offenders when they’re out on probation but we need we need to build more prisons uh there was a very good cartoon actually today which I really like which uh showed some male prisoners and and somebody desperately trying trying to say to them uh could you identify as women to go into a woman’s prison gosh it’ll probably come to that well well well there we go um Sean you know maybe there is actually quite a lot of Truth to what we’re going to hear K say about everything now which is I’ve just had a look at this and it’s an absolute mess firstly that’s absolutely a lie because none of this was a secret everything that’s happened and people say oh my gosh the public finan is in a mess it’s not the first time they see them so that’s nonsense but to to to focus on the prison thing there’s two ends to this debate we should be looking at Short sentences for the right people but that has to be planned and done properly you can’t just open the doors and let them out because the other end of that is it is poor communities that will then be filled with criminals and one of the greatest drivers of crime is the idea that you get away with it so if you are young you come from a poor community and the criminals come back you’ll think well there’s no risk here so so it’s a very nuanced debate and it has to be handled that that’s a really good point actually because I mean earlier on in the show I played some footage of some shoplifting and a bit of Machete action as well and that seems to be happening all the time by people who clearly don’t feel the consequences of this and I can’t help but wonder whether or not if word goes around prisons which I imagine it is now that you could be out deserving 40% of your sentence then that reduces the deterrence even more Matthew look I think there are two two issues here one is the fact that the prisons are literally full there there’s an issue just before the election campaign when the government was having to uh uh uh get release people early because there are literally no prison places and you know I may say kiss dama can walk on water but he can’t build a prison in a week okay but so that’s so that’s that’s the issue now I think secondly and actually it ties into it James timson who’s basically a non-party figure you know his family have traditionally been Tories um he’s been he’s been put in charge of the prison system we need real reform so as Allison says those serious offenders are are in prison for longer but we don’t have the revolving door and people on low sentences you know that that actually what’s going to We Are One serious offense from one of these people if if if and I AB this doesn’t happen I hope to God this doesn’t happen but someone gots lay out in the next couple of weeks 40% goes out commits a rape orur child or something that that already happens and we mustn’t use that as a reason to do or not to do this it has to be managed carefully there’s another additional thing they can do as well they should change the rules around tagging so if you are going to let people out early give them a tag so you know where they are because that helps them reduce their offending it’s important all right um let’s wh it on to uh another topic now so should K Arma Grant the nation a bank holiday if England win the Euro’s Final on Sunday well the PM didn’t rule it out if England win do we all get an extra day off well we should certainly Mark the occasion I don’t want to jinx I went to the uh the last Euro’s final I don’t want to go through that again so don’t want to jinx anything we must mark it in some way so cir previously backed the idea of bank holidays for England winning major tournament obviously the concern is that it could actually cost the taxpayer you know a heck of a lot of money uh what do you make of that should we go bank holiday if the Three Lions raw Allison no we should not I mean basically about six billion people in the country every day is a bank holiday isn’t it really we’ve got we’ve got a productivity watch out for my uh GB uh no I think a nice open top bus ride I really hope they win I’m very excited let’s all hope that they win but no we can’t go giving we’ve already got an awful lot of fank holidays haven’t we the the thing is look we can see what’s we can see what’s going to happen but if england do win there’s going to be a lot of sorry I can’t can’t make in on the Monday got this cough you know I can’t you know and that’s just from you we absolutely should have a bank holiday if England win for what there’s two reasons firstly I’m with the King they have to win in the 90 minutes cuz the penalties was horrific I can’t go through that again but more importantly there’s no doubt the country is in the doldrums and if something can lift us all up if something can give us an extra 10 minutes of our family it might be important for our well-being because in the next four years we’re going to have to get we’re going to have to get to work to get this country back give us a day off one thing I will say there is Matthew is is what what a pass K St has been served up so far the Tories are eating themselves alive you’ve got the chairman of the 1922 committee who’s been elected in what people are calling a rigged elected they they CL Clos the polls early might win the Euros the economy which is which has got nothing to do with him so far has just been boosted even more than whatever we are set to see net migration figures just come down naturally I mean goodness gracious me I’m only got it because in 97 uh when Blair won the timing was such that we won the Eurovision uh song contest about three weeks later um look I’m with Allison on this um um the lib Dems have jumped on this bandwagon say whichever B call today the truth of the matter is it’s the summer um so you know lots of lots of kids kids will be off school pretty much H anyway certainly they’re already off school in Scotland there’s an issue about D we have to give Scotland and Wales an extra day somewhere later in the year to balance out the numbers Etc I think look the productivity is very important so without being Mr grad grind I think no to a bank holiday yes to a big celebration no to a bank holiday hey a bank holiday will up our productivity a good rest and then we get straight back the kind of guys in fav starts become in favor of a four- day week I hate I hate that idea he’s in the laws they do a four day week when was the last time we won anything 1966 under a labor government if the people are bre come on Bank Holiday La government come on Bank holid I’m sure that’s what they were thinking as they were taking on the Germans there the absolutely for Harold harlson yeah do it anyway England’s dramatic late victory in last night’s semifinals and supports into a bit of a spin and the US rock group the killers were Keen to make sure that fans out their gig didn’t miss out in a European Championship final that’s exactly what [Applause] [Music] meanwhile over at Dortmund Zoo Walter the orangutan has boldly predicted the winner of the Euro final who have you gone for w Walter okay well we see Walter ambling over he’s got to choose between Spain and England and he’s gone for Spain all right well apparently Walter sided with the Netherlands in the last match and look how that turned out so have that Walter or I who you think you are mate right but you’re rubbish you’re useless you got no idea what you’re doing you’re a complete fraud we approached Walter to offer a right of reply and he told us Memorial I don’t believe a word that wter isn’t he valta isn’t it like he German he’s in Dortmund Zoo can’t you tell he got the German twne mate well as a German I’m not surprised you voted against us what I can just say is I’m very sad that we didn’t cut back to your little bopping along to the killers there The Killers yes indeed right coming up who’s K St talking about here and he seconding now and he seconding now is he implying that President Biden is cile is he no we had a really good bilateral yesterday okay I’ll reveal all of that and more of tomorrow’s newspaper front pages when I’m back in just a couple of minutes so stay [Music] tuned this is GB news Britain’s News Channel I’m joined Now by Stefan kir asses to give us the latest on everything theater so yeah we’re going in first with Starlight Express which is back it’s not in the West End it’s out at Wembley at the trador theater which is a big almost kind of warehouse space which suits because as you know have you seen the show staright Express was my first ever musical I must have been about seven or eight years old uh I only saw it once but I remember it being magical this one it’s 1984 it started um and it’s still running in bokam in Germany in a huge Arena so basically what we’ve got they’ve slightly tweaked it and it’s a little boy or little girl depending on the cast going to bed obsessed with toy trains and dreaming of trains everybody is dressed up to me it looks like a cross between Tron and Priscilla Queen of the Desert I don’t really think any of them look remotely like a train but hey um the songs are Andrew Lloyd Weber it’s pop mixed with kind of cod 1950s rock and roll some power ballads the are politely like something out of a old speaking Spell machine or something you know he’s a steam train they’re out of date he’s being bullied by the diesel and the electric and he falls for this Carriage the first class Carriage new girl pearl and he wants to impress us who enters a race and that’s pretty much it and when the races happen all these barriers come up around where we’re sitting the lights are flashing the music’s thumping it’s utterly ridiculous and I felt like a kind of twenager that was huffing sherbet Di a giant of sugar it’s so much fun and the Really crucial thing about it all is that somehow in the middle of all of that I felt myself getting into the story and when Pearl and Rusty have their little duet I was very moved and there’s this big Starlight sequence which is the the inspiration the magical Starlight that he’s seeking it’s beautiful GB news the people’s Channel [Music] welcome back to Patrick Christie tonight I’ve got some more front pages for you let’s do it we’re going to go in with the independent end the Injustice of indefinite prison terms now oh come on as labor moves to reduce the time criminal spending jail David blunkett joins 70 criminal justice experts backing the independence call for a catery of prisoners trapped inside all right fine Daily Express ban them now we bought a deadly crossbow in just two minutes just hours after the nation was shot by a crossbow attack that left three people dead the express was able to buy a similar weapon with no questions asked yeah okay I I will I’m not coming into bat for crossbows here by the way if anyone says that but sometimes just sometimes it is you know the the lunatic who has the crossbow as opposed to maybe the fact that they can get one themselves there are other ways to kill people but anyway they are starma faces Mutiny on child benefit from labor back benches ah good story this yes I’m King for us touch on this a little bit because I spoke about it with gr Brady bth you I put it to you the St was going to realize isn’t he that his Stony majority actually could be a bit of a problem because he’s got a load of people behind him there who I bet are bang in favor of scrapping this camp and actually he can’t do it because otherwise we get bankrupt w we so I mean the the two child benefit cap is unfair um uh in principal labors against it but you say there a’t no money to pay to pay for lifting it so there’ll be you know there’ll be discussions with the with with the new MPS I remember 97 it was about it was actually a child benefit issue was the first Rebellion as well frankfield um uh the rebellion was involving it with Harriet Harmon so you need to handle this very carefully this is a problem for him I think this is Alison this could be a problem for he’s going to find out exactly who’s sitting behind him yeah but it’s very it’s a it’s a very tough one isn’t it Patrick because we have got a a birth crisis you know we’ve got a population crisis we do need to encourage people to have children so if they’re going to introduce this I I I liked uh the Child Benefits as controversial view when it was a universal benefit because a lot of women they think why give it to richer people but because it was a it was something everybody had at all and straight to the mom all M went straight to the mom you you had your sort of child allow it was the family allowance when I was a little kid and it meant a lot to my mom I I liked it being a universal benefit um it encouraged you to feel that you were part of something special the state valued you as as a mom cuz there is there is there’s that there’s all of that and there is the side of it as well that no doubt quite a few people and K stas back benches will be making the point which is no you know how dare you stop paying people who need the benefits the most if they’ve got young kids young single moms or whatever they might say you know he’s going to have to try and face that down show his real problem is going to be is we’ve grown the population so rapidly many people are economically inactive and now he wants to add bills child benefit being one of them I don’t think he can afford it we have a crisis around housing if you in London alone we spend 90 million pound a month on temporary accommodation on that one measure why I say it is because if you just add those two things together the government cannot afford these things so again labor are going to be forced with a lot of practical decisions to make and a big rout with Scottish labor because Scottish labor officially gains the two CH benefit cap so there’s going to be tension with all those new Scottish MPS 30 yard yeah absolutely well look um now uh cir met Joe Biden for the first time in Washington yesterday ahead of a NATO Summit and he surprised a few people with this claim about the US president they’re implying that President Biden is scile is he no we had a really good bilateral yesterday we were build for 45 minutes we went on for the best part of an hour we went through a huge number of issues at PACE he was actually a really good form and umile absolutely across all the detail guys I I have just received something here seriously and this is you couldn’t tell this we’re going to try and get this clipped up for you and and make it on air but we’ve only got a couple of minutes um it appears that President Biden has just interviewed uh sorry introduced president zalinski as President Putin on stage at Nat I’m going to play you a little clip next to my microphone here now so and now I want to hand over to the president of Ukraine who has as much courage as he has determination ladies and gentlemen President Putin oh you hate to see it you hate to see it I I’ve got to say this right forget that he’s the president of the free of of America and leads the Free World or that it’s just on a personal level he will live longer his health will be better if someone alleviates him from this pict absolutely well it’s got to be it’s got to be Jill hasn’t it it’s got to be the first lady he’s got to tell him but his party should have some sympathy for him something well they’re starting to but it’s just it’s it’s I think the person he trust most obviously you know they’re a real team is and I think the first lady’s got the future of the Free World in her hands she’s got to and hopefully you know hopefully this is another nail in the coffin of of him randing because he needs to as you say go and have a nice retirement without the burden of office I think she enjoys being first lady a bito she’ll be first lady forever the American people are generous they’ll always remember as first lady and treat as such he cannot keep going for his own personal health and of course the the whole of us there’s a number of people in the world who take great offense to what he’s just done yeah yeah absolutely I mean Paul Kier when asked is he Cen he can hardly say yes he’s a bit doter he can he I mean he he has to say he was great you know so that that would be the know what day of the week it was you know and he thought I was vishy sunak all his trust or bis Johnson take your Pi yeah unfortunately for President Biden he may well not know that he’s just Matt sir D but yeah if you are just J has then yeah apparently well he has he’s introduced zalinski as President Putin so yeah all right s say’s greatest Britain Union jackass Allison who’s your greatest Britain please it’s going to be sella braan uh
