6:14 pm
got danny kruger got the likes of danny kruger involved the new involved in the new conservatives we've got involved in the new co be rvatives we've got involved in the new co be moreas we've got involved in the new co be more rooted. we've got involved in the new co be more rooted. we've e got involved in the new co be more rooted. we've got »t involved in the new co be more rooted. we've got to to be more rooted. we've got to talk about the old talk more about the old traditional faith and traditional faith flag and family. the three issues and you just wonder if they can possibly kind of hold this together. and i'm not sure they can. and i don't think i've ever kind of thought before that the tory party could split . and not party could split. and i'm not necessarily it's going to necessarily saying it's going to happen now, but you could see the ingredients of potentially there because you find it difficult to see how these groups can possibly reconcile themselves. it may be that themselves. and it may be that a thumping defeat may be thumping election defeat may be the catalyst for some sort of split in the ranks. so you're going to see you're in the thick of it literally does it is it is this all kind of media hype and media tittle tattle and people desperate for content that are trying to kind of highlight things where perhaps they're not as serious and as deep divisions as serious and as deep divisions as they may possibly be in reality, or is it really divided? >> you know, this is your party. do you feel it is? well i
6:15 pm
actually got slightly more respect for the media than that because many of these journalists who write about the conservative party and the labour party for a living are really quite people and really quite serious people and they be writing about they wouldn't be writing about something they didn't have some substance something they didn't have some subtheye something they didn't have some subthey wouldn't just be >> they wouldn't just be inventing so think you inventing stuff. so i think you have accept that there is have to accept that there is there are differences and there are real differences and they're brought to the fore by hard decisions. it's when you have to make a decision that you find you you you fall out. and there are hard decisions facing there are hard decisions facing the country about immigration. there are hard decisions facing the country about net zero. there decisions facing there are hard decisions facing the the economy the country about the economy and what's the best way of promoting the economy and making us all more prosperous, which everybody wants to do. but there are disagreements about the best way of doing it. labour has the luxury of having to have any luxury of not having to have any policies on this at the moment, which is fair dos you know, they'll have manifesto they'll have to have a manifesto at stage, but opposition at some stage, but opposition parties are not under parties are not put under the same spotlight governing same spotlight as a governing party. the moment party. is but at the moment these coming thick and
6:16 pm
these decisions coming thick and fast towards government and fast towards the government and they divisions and they are causing divisions and disagreements. so let's that's in a way not surprising . but as in a way not surprising. but as paul says, the question is whether you can actually reconcile them and patch them over and keep the show on the road, which most political parties manage to do over a penod parties manage to do over a period even when they disagree. i mean, just think back to weeks and in the labour and the splits in the labour party over gaza, the whole party was falling apart over gaza. >> yeah, don't >> it was, yeah, but i don't think impacts voters . i think that impacts on voters. i don't think voters necessarily care splits when comes care about splits when it comes to issues because to foreign policy issues because they , well, okay, you they think, well, okay, you know, the labour party is sort of fighting against amongst itself a little bit, how itself a little bit, but how does that impact on me as an ordinary voter in a cost of living crisis, struggling to pay my and on, whereas my mortgage and so on, whereas i think immigration being a touchstone at the moment touchstone issue at the moment in body politic britain in the body politic in britain really is an issue on the doorstep. and if the party is at war that and if you've got war on that and if you've got a large element of the party which is seen rightly or wrongly, to be trying to stop the government
6:17 pm
from dealing with issue, from dealing with the issue, then voters do think, then i think voters do think, well, you've probably then i think voters do think, well, the you've probably then i think voters do think, well, the right ve probably then i think voters do think, well, the right to probably then i think voters do think, well, the right to govern ly forfeited the right to govern because are at each because if you are at each other's throats over something because if you are at each othe is throats over something because if you are at each othe is a1roats over something because if you are at each otheis a centralver something because if you are at each otheis a central issue mething because if you are at each otheis a central issue and1ing because if you are at each otheis a central issue and will that is a central issue and will be a central issue in the general election, then you can't get your own house order on get your own house in order on it. we trust you to it. why should we trust you to govern the country and i have to say, think the truth is, say, i think the truth is, daniel, think the tories have daniel, i think the tories have forfeited the right to govern well. i think all bad governments to point where governments get to a point where the has been abused so the trust has been abused so much and they they let down the voters so much . i sense now that voters so much. i sense now that people are thinking, look, you have forfeited the right to govern us. you've had all these sort changes prime sort of changes of prime minister. you've constant minister. you've been constant involved in this civil war for the few years. you haven't the last few years. you haven't delivered on mandate in delivered on your mandate in 2019. over . 2019. it's over. >> there you go. let's >> well, there you go. let's throw to guys at throw that out to you guys at home do you feel the way home then. do you feel the way that paul embry's suggesting that paul embry's suggesting that are you one of that voters feel? are you one of those people sit there as those people that sit there as well general election well and general election now? is that what you want to see happen? what do you think as well as that suggestion from i

it's held up in congress because it's tied up with american domestic politics. it may yet be released . released. >> it's to do with like immigration. what they're saying is there wasn't enough kind of immigration in bits and bobs attached to that that's tied up in american politics, immigration is the story everywhere. >> domestically. but ukraine shouldn't as as a shouldn't be forgotten as as a major foreign story because it has real implications for us here. so i'm entirely with lord cameron in saying that we should do everything we can. we can't provide aid on the scale that the united states can, obviously. but then what is the european union doing ? they are european union doing? they are doing a lot. it's true. but if people need to step up , it needs people need to step up, it needs to be the whole of the european union and nato in europe and not just the united kingdom. just just the united kingdom. >> bring paul and >> clear before i bring paul and when you say should do when you say we should do everything can, i mean, would everything we can, i mean, would you advocate british boots you ever advocate british boots being on the ground? not for training i mean, being on the ground? not for traifighting i mean, being on the ground? not for traifighting there�*an, for fighting purposes there at the moment? for fighting purposes there at the rthink1t? for fighting purposes there at the rthink that would be a step >> i think that would be a step too far, but it might actually have to at some point, you know, those russian boots going to those russian boots are going to be threatening us and our
6:25 pm
be really threatening us and our allies, we're allies, our allies that we're bound treaty allies, that bound to by treaty allies, that if attacked, will if they're attacked, we will have to war. have to go to war. >> which allies? have to go to war. >> who h allies? have to go to war. >> who estonia,�* have to go to war. >> who estonia, for example, latvia, lithuania, finland, those countries are tied to us through nato by treaty so that if they are attacked by russia, we go to war. daniel that's not going to happen. it's not going to happen. >> russia is not i mean, putin is a tyrant, no question about it. but he's not completely stupid that he's going to invade a nato country because he will know about ukraine. >> he will know that everyone said exactly that about ukraine. >> ukraine is not nato, is it? >> ukraine is not nato, is it? >> but everyone said exactly that about ukraine. he's not stupid. >> it was a different proposition and he knew that there wouldn't be nato boots on there wouldn't be nato boots on the ukraine. he the ground in ukraine. he probably know, probably knew that, you know, the the eu would arm and the us and the eu would arm and fund ukraine, but he knew they wouldn't boots ground. wouldn't be boots on the ground. something like going into estonia or somewhere. that's something like going into erdifferent somewhere. that's something like going into erdifferent proposition that's something like going into erdifferent proposition entirely's a different proposition entirely . and know, there's no . and you know, there's no there's no way. i think in reality he would take that step
6:26 pm
when he knows that it would provoke nato they would have to invoke the collective defence article. >> was it article 5 or 6? >> was it article 5 or 6? >> yeah. and then basically you're into, you're into world war iii. but the truth is, this is exactly what people said. >> lot of people said about >> a lot of people said about hitler. of course, and this is exactly the sort of talk that got complacency that got us into the you think there's any >> but do you think there's any logic to what he's saying? >> hold on. >> em- em— >> is there some logic to it? of course it different step. course it is a different step. >> let's not go comparing putin and hitler in of their and hitler in terms of their aspiration you can aspiration actions. you can compare terms of being compare them in terms of being tyrants. certainly i'll go with you but in of you on that. but in terms of their aspirations think their aspirations is, i think their aspirations is, i think the that putin wants to the idea that putin wants to march through most of europe like hitler did and, you know, create greater create some sort of greater russian , he occasionally russian empire, he occasionally gets that . but gets accused of that. but actually, you see the way actually, when you see the way they've down in they've been bogged down in ukraine two years, ukraine for nearly two years, the idea that they're going to advance across some sort of blitzkrieg across europe in the way hitler did and, you way that hitler did and, you know, destroy as hitler did, you
6:27 pm
know, destroy as hitler did, you know, invaded the low countries and france and so on. he's just completely fanciful. that isn't that isn't putin's intention. let's be let's be honest again. >> again, you see, take the historical comparison. we didn't know hitler's intentions as in the 1930. he never said, i'm going to march all the way across europe. he said, oh, i just want a little bit of czechoslovakia. i want a little bit of this, a little bit of that. we didn't his intention. >> i think some people were alive to it. >> some thought knew >> some people thought they knew and they were alive to it. but the majority of people in the government it, government didn't know it, didn't intentions, just didn't know his intentions, just the talking the same way you're talking about don't know about putin now. we don't know what putin intends. we do what what putin intends. we do know that is a threat. we know that he is a threat. we know that he is a threat. we know that he is a threat. we know that if putin succeeds in this threat, then he will be he will be he will be more powerful in threatening something against his immediate what would then be his immediate what would then be his already his immediate neighbours in the baltic states, in moldavia , which is not part in moldavia, which is not part of nato in romania , which is of nato in romania, which is next which is and he's
6:28 pm
next door, which is and he's already threatening moldavia, moldova, it's called, and so moldova, as it's called, and so on. so i think , you know, you're on. so i think, you know, you're being very, very complacent about this. this is a real threat . his about this. this is a real threat. his move is a threat to us, daniel, the war. >> and we can't detach ourselves from that. >> we are committed to it. but he has to lose the war in ukraine had a particular set of circumstances. >> now, i don't defend the invasion at all. i think it was absolutely wrong. but there was absolutely wrong. but there was a historical set of circumstances. got ethnic circumstances. you've got ethnic russian people in the east in the donbas, who lots of russians feel mistreated . they feel were being mistreated. they feel were being mistreated. they feel that nato was advancing eastward, that it was courting ukraine, that it was going right up to the russian border, and that it was therefore a threat to russia, because we know to russia, because we all know that was created, as you that nato was created, as you know, an explicitly know, as an explicitly anti soviet institution. and many people in russia still see it as an anti—russian institution. it was not brought about. we can condemn the invasion and we should, but it was not brought about by, in my view, imperial ambition in the way that hitler
6:29 pm
had. and i think if we see it in those terms, we do ourselves a disservice and actually we do know we end up ratcheting it. >> we do know actually, because he essay about it that he wrote an essay about it that and published it in advance, a long essay in which putin made it very clear that he did have imperial imperial ambitions, which stretched as far as ukraine and belarus, to which he regards as being part of greater russia. should all be one russia. and it should all be one state absolute. know state that's absolute. i know that. it's absolute clear. that. but it's absolute clear. what you don't know is what the next essay is going to say. but the bigger picture is that, you know, regret to say it, know, and i regret to say it, but is not going to win but ukraine is not going to win this war. >> and even some people who were very, fulsome their very, very fulsome in their support think are support of ukraine, i think are reconciling themselves to the fact is bogged fact that ukraine is now bogged down the offensive it launched a few months ago clearly hasn't worked . they're burning through worked. they're burning through manpower faster manpower and equipment faster than can replace them . and than they can replace them. and you get to a point where you have say, look, we are have to say, look, we are probably to have to cut probably going to have to cut our because ukraine, our losses because ukraine, i don't now i think it's don't think now and i think it's becoming and more widely
6:30 pm
becoming more and more widely accepted even among military chiefs , they are not going to chiefs, they are not going to win. so what need to do is win. so what they need to do is sue for peace and peace in a way that maintains the territorial integrity of ukraine, but at the same time giving some sort of autonomy to the ethnic russians in the east, which were what the minsk accords were built around, they had a peace deal. minsk accords were built around, the they a peace deal. minsk accords were built around, the they a pace deal. minsk accords were built around, the they a pa peace l. minsk accords were built around, the they a pa peace deal. well >> they had a peace deal. well why would you ever trust the russians in the next deal? russians in the next peace deal? >> hold on a second. i >> well, hold on a second. i don't why i don't think it's necessarily that straight. you're saying that the russians collapsed yeah, collapsed the peace deal? yeah, well, know. i don't well, i don't know. i don't i don't think the minsk accords. the accords, i don't the minsk accords, i don't accept was entirely accept that. that was entirely the fault of the russians for collapsing and i think collapsing it. and i think actually that can form basis actually that can form the basis of a of a new settlement . the of a of a new settlement. the problem is ukraine now has got less bargaining power because it is so bogged down and the counter offensive has failed that people and they were that those people and they were few and they were too few who were saying very early in this conflict, look, we need to find some sort of peaceful settlement
6:31 pm
here. we're with hindsight probably right, because i think had that been the case, then, ukraine could have sued on terms that were actually better than the terms it may end up likely to be suing on in the next few weeks or months. and that ultimately is the tragedy and the people who have to bear responsibility for that, i think, are the who have think, are the people who have not for peace throughout not looked for peace throughout the the years of the whole of the two years of this been struck by this war. i've been struck by how there's been an absence of international voices across politics, across the religious world, people of influence who have said, look, you know, we need to find a peaceful way out of this. they do that for any other war, but it seems to me when it came to russia and ukraine, there were far too many people egging on and too few people egging it on and too few people egging it on and too few people how can people who were saying, how can we a peaceful settlement? we broker a peaceful settlement? and we're now paying the price for think yeah, i do for that. i think yeah, i do think it's interesting because we every we have pretty much every weekend we? weekend now, don't we? >> we have those marches and stuff about ceasefires now when it to like gaza. stuff about ceasefires now when it ukraine, like gaza. stuff about ceasefires now when it ukraine, where.ike gaza. stuff about ceasefires now when it ukraine, where are gaza. stuff about ceasefires now when it ukraine, where are gazthe but ukraine, where are all the people out on the
6:32 pm
people that are out on the streets calling for ceasefire there and peace there, etcetera? you guys are divided on this one, it mildly. one, to put it mildly. i can tell says paul is tell you, susan says paul is completely wrong . putin is an completely wrong. putin is an evil man who hates the west. daniel is completely , fully daniel is completely, fully right . is daniel is completely, fully right. is this one here? daniel is completely, fully right . is this one here? says right. is this one here? says stewart says, i don't normally agree with paul on anything at all, but he is 100% correct when he's speaking about the uk, ukraine, russia conflict. simon says putin wants to recreate the ussr and bring all those countries back into his sphere of operation , and we must never of operation, and we must never allow him to believe that we would sit by and do nothing to prevent that . i mean, are there prevent that. i mean, are there any limits? i mean, we've just been talking about boots on the ground. we're talking about money, additional money. you know, if everyone is in support of are there limits at of this, are there any limits at all, red lines at all or all, any red lines at all or not? i think david cameron, i think he did actually say that his line would be that kind his red line would be that kind of potential boots of notion about potential boots on that one of on the ground. is that one of yours or not? and if it's money, if you're for all more money, is
6:33 pm
there there or not? is it there a line there or not? is it just an open chequebook in your mind? let me know mind? get in touch. let me know your thoughts on that. vaiews@gbnews.com after the break. let me ask you something. is the national anthem offensive 7 is the national anthem offensive ? is it outdated ? you tell me, ? is it outdated? you tell me, because one particular universe city seems to think so. see you .
6:34 pm
6:35 pm
6:36 pm
going too far the other way. >> you're listening to gb news radio . radio. >> hello there. i'm michelle dewberry and i'm with you till 7:00 tonight. alongside me, the tory life peer in the house of lords, daniel moylan, and the writer and trade unionist paul embery. very bad news, i'm afraid , our listeners and afraid, our listeners and viewers, because i need to draw close to the christmas tree viewings because i've squeezed as many as i can into my system and i'm going to be showing them before the end the programme. before the end of the programme. but you're loving it. i've got more christmas trees i can
6:37 pm
more christmas trees than i can shake stick at. so i'll keep shake a stick at. so i'll keep rolling do shake a stick at. so i'll keep ro again do shake a stick at. so i'll keep ro again next do shake a stick at. so i'll keep ro again next week. do shake a stick at. so i'll keep ro again next week. but do shake a stick at. so i'll keep ro again next week. but for do shake a stick at. so i'll keep ro again next week. but for now, it again next week. but for now, i want to talk to you about the national anthem because get this, everyone, bristol university, they've it now university, they've axed it now from graduation ceremonies from their graduation ceremonies because from their graduation ceremonies bquote, fashioned and i quote, old fashioned and i also, quote, offensive to some. i find that absolutely pathetic . i find that absolutely pathetic. paul embery, where are you on that? >> well, george orwell said that england is the only great country whose intellectuals are ashamed of their nationality and i think, to be honest, our universities are proving the point. i mean, they are let's be blunt, they're sort of hotbeds these days of sort of liberal, progressive culture that kind of rails against any small c conservative express version of, you know, patriot ism affinity for country, affection for country and stuff like that. so i think that this is a symbol of that mindset, of that worldview , that mindset, of that worldview, too. and, you know, it's appalling really, because i'm not a jingoist , by the way. i
6:38 pm
not a jingoist, by the way. i don't i don't like the idea of kids going in like they do in america and saluting the flag and singing the national anthem every morning. and stuff like and singing the national anthem everybutrning. and stuff like and singing the national anthem everybut i|ing. and stuff like and singing the national anthem everybut i thinkrnd stuff like and singing the national anthem everybut i think on stuff like and singing the national anthem everybut i think on a uff like and singing the national anthem everybut i think on a special that. but i think on a special occasion such as this, it's not a lot to to say. if the a lot to ask to say. if the national anthems are being played, why would want to played, why would you want to ban we seem to be the ban it? and we seem to be the only that does this sort only country that does this sort of nonsense. can you imagine in france, university la france, a university banning la marseillaise, graduation marseillaise, a graduation ceremony? wouldn't ceremony? it just wouldn't happen. i ceremony? it just wouldn't happen . i it shows the happen. and i think it shows the kind of pitiful state of our seats of learning at the moment. i'm sad to say, daniel, it's interesting that it's bristol again, isn't it? >> i mean, i actually think bristol is going to leave the united and just float united kingdom and just float out the middle out somewhere into the middle of the sea. the celtic sea. >> that your wish? >> is that your wish? >> is that your wish? >> saint george's channel? and it'll be, know, it'll be it'll be, you know, it'll be closing down of closing itself down as part of the united kingdom altogether for bristol, for something about bristol, it's bonkers . it's gone completely bonkers. yeah. the polls absolutely right. i mean, but i would ask people, you know, i'd ask the university of bristol, what
6:39 pm
about the people who find it offensive that you don't play the national anthem ? what the national anthem? what consideration did you give to them and to their views? >> i wonder which would be the majority ? do you think the majority? do you think the majority? do you think the majority would be people that find it offensive or majority that that in that people that don't in bristol , you that people that don't in bristol, you have idea. bristol, you have no idea. >> in you couldn't tell. >> in bristol you couldn't tell. but in the country at large, the majority of people do find majority of people do not find the national anthem offensive. it the words go back and it is old. the words go back and the music go to the sort of the music go back to the sort of the music go back to the sort of the 18th century. we've already dropped of it because dropped one verse of it because it too offensive. we it was too offensive. we thought, think it's too thought, i don't think it's too offensive, about, offensive, but the one about, you about the king's you know, about the king's enemies and frustrate their politics, frustrate their neighbour about crushing, crushing the scots, which i think should be brought back in, was meant to be something. i don't know whether it doesn't explicitly refer to the scots. >> everyone knows that. >> yeah, everyone knows that. that's well, well, that's who we were. well, well, you whatever. you know, whatever. >> dropped that >> we've already dropped that that i mean, much that one. so i mean, how much more do we have to drop? more of it do we have to drop? we just we just hum. we we just left. we just hum. we could hum national anthem could hum the national anthem maybe, and they'd allow us to do
6:40 pm
that. how about that? >> universities just us >> universities just give us a quick hum . quick hum. >> i'm going to make him do the whole thing. >> i'm going to go i'm going to whole thing. >> out going to go i'm going to whole thing. >> out toying to go i'm going to whole thing. >> out to the to go i'm going to whole thing. >> out to the toilet i'm going to whole thing. >> out to the toilet on going to go out to the toilet or somewhere and leave him humming. let bring my me let me just bring my let me bnng let me just bring my let me bring some of my viewers in. right. because jackie says michelle, i think this is just a step people trying to step towards people trying to remove national anthem. and remove the national anthem. and if can't see that, we've if people can't see that, we've got an bigger problem. she got an even bigger problem. she says , who's this , del? i think says, who's this, del? i think it is. it's not outdated. it should be kept. there's too many people in this country trying to take away our ident entity. paul says. take away our ident entity. paul says . michelle, the national says. michelle, the national anthem is way out of date and it's not fit for purpose. why should we? he says. why should we be subjects and sing to save one person? it doesn't make any sense. we need a national anthem , which is about the nation and not one individual. >> england should certainly have its own national anthem. that is a lacuna. the fact that the three other home countries have got national anthems we got national anthems and we don't in england, we don't have
6:41 pm
we have national we should have our own national anthem, something like jerusalem. i'd be favour of jerusalem. i'd be in favour of that. keeping god the that. but keeping god save the king kind of default for king as the kind of default for the uk, peter says the national anthem offensive outdated i >> -- >> he says i get tingles listening to the scottish irish and welsh anthems where he says when they play god save the king. here, though, it makes me angry and it's time for a change in my opinion. brian says, well, as a republican, i think we should have a more uplifting song. perhaps a land of hope and glory or something instead of something paying homage to one person. so i find that quite interesting. there's lots of debate of hope and glory there probably a great deal more offensive to modern sensibilities than anything in god save the king. and she makes a good point. and she's quite right because she says, michelle, i've heard that they will play it if there's a member of the royal family visiting, which is absolutely right. that is what they've said. she says, talk about flexible principles and i do think that is quite
6:42 pm
interesting. i think you make an interesting. i think you make an interesting point. mars says, michelle, i've wanted a different anthem for years . this different anthem for years. this one should have been faded out with the empire. see the very divided, the national anthem is way past its sell by date. it's outdated and utterly irrelevant, says stuart. in brackets, another one, another stuart ? another one, another stuart? yes. how many stuarts have we got? >> well, they're the scots, you see. well stuart's a scottish rising. you've been hacked. you've been hacked by scots . you've been hacked by scots. >> i was talking about the russians hacking the politicians last night and i was saying, can you imagine if the russians haven't been hacking our politicians ? they've probably politicians? they've probably become so confused and bewildered by what on earth was going on. >> probably realise >> they'd probably realise they've nothing to they've really got nothing to fear, wouldn't they? if they were listening the private were listening to the private messages politicians? were listening to the private messag look, politicians? were listening to the private messaglook, john,:ians? were listening to the private messaglook, john, he's? were listening to the private messaglook, john, he's not >> oh, look, john, he's not a man that minces his words. he says, our national anthem says, leave our national anthem alone. and if anyone it alone. and if anyone finds it offensive, clear off. that's what he says. there you go . i what he says. there you go. i want to talk to you after the
6:43 pm

because i was like, wow, that is that must take something. some there's something in you to be that forgiving in that scenario. and got me thinking and then it got me thinking about many about christmas. so many families do you know they've had big family and people big family rifts and people don't forgive and and don't forgive and forget and move get all divided move on and you get all divided families christmas is a time families and christmas is a time of kind of coming together. so i just thought i'd be nosy and ask how forgiving my viewers, how forgiving paul? how forgiving my viewers, how forgi/ing paul? how forgiving my viewers, how forgl think paul? how forgiving my viewers, how forgl think it paul? how forgiving my viewers, how forgl think it dependsl? the >> i think it depends on the extent of how much i've been wronged and what the person did. i can forgive in certain circumstances, but for me, you have to be repentant first. if you don't show repentance , if you don't show repentance, if you don't show repentance, if you don't show repentance, if you don't seek forgiveness, then the forgiveness becomes meaningless. have to meaningless. i think you have to show remorse. >> are a forgiving >> daniel, are you a forgiving kind >> daniel, are you a forgiving kinyi think. well, let me just >> i think. well, let me just say, i think this poor, tragic family have their finger on family have put their finger on a important distinction, a really important distinction, which between which is the distinction between forgiveness and justice, because they are willing to forgive the person who did this . that's that person who did this. that's that is one thing. but they still want justice to be done . want justice to be done. forgiveness is, is, if you like,
6:51 pm
an act of charity. but just es requires someone to face the music and pay recompense and punishment and whatever it is. and it's a really important distinction. but the biggest problem families have is anger and anger is something that they they get angry and then they nurture the anger. sometimes for years. and christmas is quite a good time, i think, to let that good time, i think, to let that go when i had a saying once, which was getting angry at someone is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to suffer. >> and that's always stuck with me that actually because it is difficult to kind of, i don't know, just smooth things over and be the bigger person sometimes. and you know, we do internalise things , don't we? internalise things, don't we? but actually i that but actually when i heard that it did make me stop in my tracks valve, isn't it? it did make me stop in my tracks val'anger't it? it did make me stop in my tracks val'anger is t? it did make me stop in my tracks val'anger is a natural, it did make me stop in my tracks val'anger is a natural , justified >> anger is a natural, justified release valve. >> anger is a natural, justified relelt;e valve. >> anger is a natural, justified rele it isvalve. >> anger is a natural, justified rele it is a lve. >> anger is a natural, justified rele it is a burst anger, but >> it is a burst of anger, but nurturing it forever. >> it does you no good shells, right? a poison. right? it's a poison. >> lots of people >> yeah. lots of people appreciating , malcolm >> yeah. lots of people appreciating, malcolm said. can i what a great show i just say what a great show tonight? enjoyed topics tonight? i've enjoyed the topics
