need to offer a good deal to aslef the train drivers union on the and the pay the conditions and the pay increase they're going increase that they're going after isn't unreasonable. but mark has been mark harper has just been operating the operating in bad faith for the last year a bit. it's last year, year and a bit. it's just been it's been poor from the for the government. it's time for them to step up. >> would say to train >> what would you say to train drivers the members of drivers to the members of the public, andy, who's earning 25 to a year can't to 30 grand a year that can't get to that relative at christmas, can't get to that important hospital appointment because drivers earning because train drivers earning 60, 70, 80 grand a year want more money. >> it's not just about money, in fairness. about conditions. fairness. it's about conditions. it's contract rates and it's about contract rates and it's about pensions. it's it's about contract rates and it's about pensions . it's not it's about pensions. it's not just about, you know, what's in their pocket at the end of the day. do deserve a pay day. but they do deserve a pay rise. haven't pay rise. they haven't had a pay rise. they haven't had a pay rise i think, seven rise in about, i think, seven years. they've lost 12% proportionally. they proportionally. it's poor. they need they deserve it. need you know, they deserve it. >> let me go to our right in the corner, i mean, and corner, harriet. i mean, and you're that not you're saying that they've not had for so many had a pay rise for so many years. they deserve it. you don't see many train drivers leaving profession to go leaving the profession to go for another no not at all. anotherjob? no not at all. >> fact, the opposite it i

>> in fact, the opposite it i mean, i think there is an argument for saying, yes, you've got to pay people more. you got to pay people more. if you have like we had with have a shortage like we had with lorry drivers. so they got an increase and they got their conditions improved and lo and behold, we don't have a shortage of lorry drivers anymore. but that's not true of train drivers . is the train operating company says every time they advertise a job being a train driver is so popular where they get 300 people applying for just one job and if they advertise in the north, 750 people apply for just one job and they have to close the application an after1 or 2 the application an after 1 or 2 days. so there is absolutely no argue moment for a rise for train drivers when so many people want to be a train driver. and i happen to know this. i became interested in this. i became interested in this because at the moment i'm helping two young men who are just coming out of prison and

both of them are really eager all the things that they can do. they want to go and work on the trains and they're former drug dealers, so they know a good dealers, so they know a good deal when they see it about transport. >> and i think harriet makes a good point there, that for every vacancy, driving a train in the north, especially , 750 people north, especially, 750 people are applying for these roles that sort of casts into into doubt your your theory that it's about pensions , pay conditions. about pensions, pay conditions. why are so many people applying for these jobs when they're so poorly paid? >> and we're not saying that they're poorly paid. just they're poorly paid. it's just they're poorly paid. it's just they haven't fair pay they haven't had a fair pay increase a while. but, you increase for a while. but, you know, you look how know, you look at how many people many people apply to bmps, how many people apply to bmps, how many people be on those people apply to be on those shortlists, run shortlists, how many people run for parliament. get for parliament. but mps get a pay for parliament. but mps get a pay every single year. pay increase every single year. no, they don't. they no, they don't. yes, they do. no, they don't. yes, they do. no, don't. they have no, they don't. they have for the years they've had no, they don't. they have for tipay years they've had no, they don't. they have for tipay increase./ears they've had no, they don't. they have for tipay increase. yes,1 they've had no, they don't. they have for tipay increase. yes, they 've had no, they don't. they have for tipay increase. yes, they have. d a pay increase. yes, they have. >> no, they haven't funded. yes, they went year they have. we went two year without went without a pay rise. you went a year pay rise.

year without a pay rise. >> well, congratulations. >> oh, well, congratulations. >> oh, well, congratulations. >> year. so your facts >> every year. so get your facts straight. >> so took one year off? >> so you took one year off? >> so you took one year off? >> and i always give my >> yeah. and i always give my pay >> yeah. and i always give my pay to good causes. pay rise away to good causes. that's pay rise away to good causes. thacongratulations. you >> congratulations. but you know, of those mps don't. know, a lot of those mps don't. does harper? well, his does mark harper? well, his minister, 120 grand does mark harper? well, his mini�*his. 120 grand does mark harper? well, his mini�*his. rise 120 grand does mark harper? well, his mini�*his. rise was 120 grand does mark harper? well, his mini�*his. rise was about rand does mark harper? well, his mini�*his. rise was about ra or with his pay rise was about 2 or 3. >> and i know there's not much sympathy out there for members. >> for >> well, they'll be asking for if 2 or 3% every year, if you gave 2 or 3% every year, you know, you wouldn't have an accumulative figure. accumulative 12% figure. >> 12% >> yeah, but it's the 12% come from the accumulative figure, >> it's the accumulative figure, i think. i think harriet, i just say something about this. say something more about this. >> mean, andy raised the >> this i mean, andy raised the point pensions point about pensions and conditions, same conditions, but we see the same there everything else there as with everything else to do trains. mean, do with the trains. i mean, train an amazing train drivers have an amazing i mean, the aristotle rac mean, they are the aristotle rac of they have sort of of pensions. they have sort of gold plated singing and dancing goes up with inflation better than bankers pensions. >> they better than bankers pensions, barristers pensions. well i'm talking about train drivers. >> you're saying they're the gold standard of pensions? all right, if you bring up the gold standard in the train industry, what you're bringing up, you're bringing up a barrister. okay

what you're bringing up, you're bring thenp a barrister. okay what you're bringing up, you're bring thenp a b atister. okay what you're bringing up, you're bring thenp a b at a:er. okay what you're bringing up, you're bring thenp a b at a solicitor. well, then look at a solicitor. i train are i mean, train drivers are actually paid £5,000 more than solicitors . they are because solicitors. they are because there isn't a standard. there isn't a standard wage for solicitors. they are compared to nurses for example, nurse who's a ward nurse gets about £31,000 a ward nurse gets about £31,000 a year. a train driver. average wage is 54,000. that means the people get a lot more than the 50. >> i think under the tory rule, i would advocate , i would i would advocate, i would advocate for an increase for nurses as well. >> can i just say the training and the training as well? i mean, nurses are doing three years worth of training . they're years worth of training. they're having to deal with incredibly stressful situations. life and death situations on the wards , death situations on the wards, as train drivers do. 6 to 9 months and then they're sitting in this sort of cosy cabin compared sort of insulated from the from the public. >> there's a big difference there. i mean, harriet's right what she said, the people working in nhs like nurses, they do a hell of a lot of training,

a lot of new degrees now. three, four, maybe five years, some going to two specialist jobs in nursing you wouldn't nursing and you still wouldn't give them a pay rise. >> that's nhs is still striking. >> very intense, very intense career progression. but you know, no disrespect to train drivers because they do a cracking job, they do a brilliant job, a stressful job sometimes, months sometimes, but 6 to 9 months training and they're on 56 to 70 grand year. training and they're on 56 to 70 gra yeah,'ear. training and they're on 56 to 70 gra yeah, well, i would i would >> yeah, well, i would i would agree that nurses do deserve to be more. with you. be paid more. i agree with you. you there's no you know, there's no disagreement absolutely. >> harriet illness is not seasonal there will be a lot seasonal and there will be a lot of over the festive of people over the festive penod of people over the festive period wanting to get to that important, vital hospital appointment to get that treatment care that they treatment or that care that they need. it time, like we need. isn't it time, like we just said previously with the with train strikes, that, with the train strikes, that, you there's of you know, there's a bit of common used they common sense used because they will public very will lose public sympathy very quickly . some the will lose public sympathy very quickly. some the nhs quickly. some of the nhs workers, they're striking workers, if they're striking over and you know over christmas and you know vulnerable people can't get to the hospital to have that important treatment they important treatment that they need. >> i mean, i think it's appalling . you're talking about appalling. you're talking about the nhs no, i mean,

the nhs strikes. no, i mean, it's absolutely heartbreaking . i it's absolutely heartbreaking. i mean, are people literally mean, there are people literally dying lists. they are dying on waiting lists. they are a huge numbers of people who can't who of sitting can't work, who sort of sitting around in pain and agony on waiting lists. and this strike is just going to exacerbate all of that. so it's completely heartbreaking . heartbreaking. >> are they being scrooge, the health unions? >> i think it's more the department of health than anyone. you know, it goes back to responsibility of them to that responsibility of them to that responsibility of them to they just to offer a fair deal. they just won't they won't won't negotiate. they won't negotiate faith. it's negotiate in good faith. it's poor from the government. they need better. it's their need to do better. it's their fault. have been fault. these strikes have been going on, what, almost a year now? over a year. it's poor now? just over a year. it's poor from them. they need to do better. >> em- t“ >> so you're saying it's the government's fault that people decide take strike action? decide to take strike action? >> well, it's the government's fault when they don't offer fair contracts. yes. when they don't offer to offer fair pay increases to those lines. you those on the front lines. you know, it's a it's a government establishment. of establishment. it's part of the british identity. national british identity. the national health you're health service. i'm sure you're as as i am. i am as proud of it as i am. i am proud know, we need proud of it. you know, we need to their staff fair harriet

things. >> but i actually think the nhs gets enough money. it gets enough money. i think it wastes a of money. we see wastes a lot of money. we see some the trusts now some of the trusts now advertising diversity advertising ridiculous diversity roles, even roles, paying 60, 70, 80, even 100 a surely that 100 grand a year. surely that money used to go back money should be used to go back into packets? into nurses pay packets? >> well i spent >> harriet yeah, well i spent about yearinvestigating >> harriet yeah, well i spent about year investigating the about a year investigating the nhs, meaning i was in about six different hospitals shadowing staff. everybody from porters to sort of ceos and sitting in on meetings following nurses around and i was pretty appalled by it actually . i did that in six actually. i did that in six different hospitals around the country , and i saw a lot of country, and i saw a lot of suffering by patients . i saw suffering by patients. i saw managers well, i didn't see managers. that's the whole point. i mean, as the porters told me, and they're very, very interesting . and what's actually interesting. and what's actually going on in a hospital, you never see managers . and when never see managers. and when i did go and see the managers, they were always in a separate block , usually modern, pristine block, usually modern, pristine one, and they never seem to come

anywhere near the hospital . they anywhere near the hospital. they were always managing to the centre to the central demands which had nothing. they had no idea what was going on in their hospital and nothing to do with what was happening. >> fair point. poorly run >> it's a fair point. poorly run nhs 13 years of tory britain. >> more can you expect? >> what more can you expect? >> what more can you expect? >> government run the >> the government don't run the nhs? trust. nhs? well, they delegate trust. they nhs? well, they delegate trust. the they the nhs? well, they delegate trust. thethey the precedent. if nhs? well, they delegate trust. the governmentthe precedent. if nhs? well, they delegate trust. the governmentthe pfireedent. if nhs? well, they delegate trust. the governmentthe pfire alllt. if nhs? well, they delegate trust. the governmentthe pfire all the: the government said fire all the diversity , the trust would diversity staff, the trust would fire the diversity. >> it's been their >> obviously it's been their first seen waste first time. she's seen the waste firsthand. seen sometimes firsthand. she's seen sometimes the of the patients is the treatment of the patients is not up to scratch and a manager is out of touch. managers, in my opinion , sat an office block opinion, sat in an office block a million miles haven't a million miles away. haven't got clue about the health service. >> yeah, i completely agree. and i of those should be i think a lot of those should be fired. it's civil service. i think a lot of those should be fi|lot it's civil service. i think a lot of those should be fi|lot of s civil service. i think a lot of those should be fi|lot of that civil service. i think a lot of those should be fi|lot of that middle ervice. i think a lot of those should be fi|lot of that middle management. a lot of that middle management. there we go. a lot of that middle management. theso we go. a lot of that middle management. theso we've got a trade union a lot of that middle management. thesnow've got a trade union a lot of that middle management. thesnow've got people union a lot of that middle management. thesnow've got people should be man now saying people should be sacked the nhs. that's sacked from the nhs. that's great, harriet. great, andy. thanks, harriet. do not coming up not go away because coming up after we've got after the break, we've got legendary and man after the break, we've got legend footballer and man after the break, we've got legend footballer paul and man after the break, we've got legend footballer paul parkeri man after the break, we've got

and just seeing that amount of people just coming to look around the ground and it was just something i'd never witnessed before. >> tottenham hotspur that >> but tottenham hotspur at that time suppose, that when time, i suppose, is that when glenn playing for glenn hoddle was playing for tottenham, was 91. tottenham, no, this was 91. >> this so it was terrible. >> this was so it was terrible. yeah, it was terry venables and but the sort of the good side. >> tottenham at that time was gazza playing at that time ? gazza playing at that time? >> yes. gazza would have been there. yeah. >> yes. gazza would have been the whenih. fancy played with >> when you fancy played with him level i would have him at club level i would have said without a doubt you said without a doubt after, you know, those weeks, know, spending those weeks, good, bad or indifferent with him during a world cup . him during a world cup. >> but to play with gascoigne could have you know, could have added, you know, given, little bit given, you know, a little bit more to me as a player. more kudos to me as a player. but the opportunity to go and play but the opportunity to go and play for manchester just arriving there, seeing the size of the stadium and the amount of people who just there people who were just there walking it's just one of walking around, it's just one of those opportunities that you couldn't say to. couldn't say no to. >> i mean, have been back >> i mean, you'd have been back in paul, you'd on in the day, paul, you'd been on a wage, obviously playing a decent wage, obviously playing for teams. but for these football teams. but you of the wages that you see some of the wages that the earning

the young players are earning these now these days, basically 18 now they sign a contract to make they can sign a contract to make him millionaire and they'll be him a millionaire and they'll be secure the rest their secure for the rest of their life. do they lose a bit then some the young players some of the young players i think human nature that you think human nature says that you lose of edge. lose a bit of your edge. >> there isn't can >> there isn't many you can actually it and actually get through it and carry on pre that it's almost impossible to do that because you get that little you get that comfort zone. so is wrong in comfort zone. so it is wrong in a for them to be given that a way for them to be given that amount of money. but to get them but they should give it in a different way. it's about keeping them hungry because that's what keeps keeps you in football, keeps you protection for young people like mentors and . for young people like mentors anchu . for young people like mentors anchu know, these young people >> you know, these young people sign because it's for 18 year sign on because it's for 18 year old be sort of money. old to be on this sort of money. it's like it's mind blowing . i it's like it's mind blowing. i just that, you know, just thought that, you know, the club their arms club should wrap their arms around bit of around them a little bit of a no. was quite strict and no. fergie was quite strict and they weren't with his young players, don't see so much players, but i don't see so much of days. we of that these days. well, we don't of it, sir. don't hear so much of it, sir. >> alex, done it and people talked about because of talked about it because of those young there in young players and were there in the the foresight of

the in in the foresight of everybody. but look at it in today the best people who today and the best people who can in that position to look can be in that position to look after these young players are their or their close their parents or their close friends. clubs couldn't friends. these clubs couldn't offer. going to offer. but are you going to listen stranger or are you listen to a stranger or are you going to listen someone close going to listen to someone close to telling to you who's actually telling you the home truths you that maybe the home truths about unless , you know, if about life, unless, you know, if you don't the right way. you don't do it the right way. >> you've played in some big >> now you've played in some big games, games, semi—final games, massive games, semi—final at 1991, quite a few at world cup 1991, quite a few trophies with man united could you sleep before a big game ? you sleep before a big game? >> no, never. never. never even we have sometimes go to go away. you know , stay overnight and you know, stay overnight and then wake up in the morning, go for walks. and then you've got a whole day waiting for a game. i think you try and sleep and you're. sometimes i think i played the game that night, you know, what was playing later on? played the game that night, you krwas what was playing later on? played the game that night, you krwas iniat was playing later on? played the game that night, you krwas in myvas playing later on? played the game that night, you krwas in my head.aying later on? played the game that night, you krwas in my head. or|g later on? played the game that night, you krwas in my head. or it'sater on? it was in my head. or it's almost some people will say they did, but the ones who the ones who actually did it very, who actually did it is very, very minimal. think very minimal. i think it's impossible able to sleep. >> so then you've had a sleepless night. you've gone on one a match, trophy

one on a big match, won a trophy , a premier league or an fa cup or something like that, and then how long does that buzz last after ? because it probably don't after? because it probably don't sleep night . sleep the following night. >> oh, i think you do more so when you haven't got that in front especially when front of you, especially when you've been successful well, you've been successful as well, you've been successful as well, you it out of the you know, you get it out of the way. let's put it this way. it's always lose big always difficult to lose a big game manchester and game for manchester united, and then it's difficult to sleep that knowing that, you that night knowing that, you know, there's people around . know, there's people around. that meant so much to say . that game meant so much to say. losing derby or losing a manchester derby or losing to liverpool, which is which is always going to be hard if you're if you're a manchester united fan. >> i'm you said that, >> i'm glad you said that, because hear about because we always hear about the famous treatment . did famous hairdryer treatment. did you that from from you ever get that from from fergie you ever get that from from fergoh, got a few. i've got >> oh, i've got a few. i've got a few from him. yeah, without a doubt. there isn't many got doubt. there isn't many who got away can only name away with it. i can only name one my time always one during my time who always got away with it. and that would be got away be eric. eric always got away with but i think we'd have with it. but i think we'd have to given what eric done in to say, given what eric done in that time, i think as players, one of the players who played with him would accept that it

got him of slack as well, got him a bit of slack as well, didn't got him a bit of slack as well, did especially during the kung fu >> especially during the kung fu kick era as well? i think most players out players would have been out the doom door, weren't they, for that? yeah think think it was yeah i think i think it was a little bit more slack than slack, to be honest. >> he it. the >> you know, he knew it. the boss it was wrong. the boss boss knew it was wrong. the boss tried to tell him after the game, but manner in which game, but the manner in which the told made the boss actually told him made a laugh . yeah, but a lot of us laugh. yeah, but yeah. >> what did you say to him? >> what did you say to him? >> he just virtually. just after telling everyone what telling everyone else what they'd done wrong, ripping into him ripping him, him seriously ripping into him, he said to eric, he just virtually said to eric, you that, son. and you can't do that, son. and i thought it might have been a little bit more that. little bit more heavy than that. but all just looked at each but we all just looked at each other and we just all started laughing and then then it went more serious about it after. but his talent . you couldn't let his talent. you couldn't let talent like that go. if it's not, it's a chance to keep it. you keep it. and the boss was proved right and keeping it was proved right. >> it was a proved right. >> i suppose it was a bit of a trade off. there isn't there is behaviour some behaviour or whatever. some of the he to against the antics he got up to against it a brilliant footballer. it was a brilliant footballer. yeah what done

yeah but it's what he'd done after well. after eric as well. >> that made sure i'm sure made the boss feel even better. you know, what he'd done he had know, what he'd done was he had to community service and know, what he'd done was he had to was munity service and know, what he'd done was he had to was kidsity service and know, what he'd done was he had to was kids were rvice and know, what he'd done was he had to was kids were comingj know, what he'd done was he had to was kids were coming into there was kids were coming into there was kids were coming into the ground it there was kids were coming into the easy ground it there was kids were coming into the easy for ground it there was kids were coming into the easy for eric ground it there was kids were coming into the easy for eric just nd it there was kids were coming into the easy for eric just to it there was kids were coming into the easy for eric just to stand was easy for eric just to stand around let other people do around and let other people do the . yeah, the coaching. yeah, but he didn't. joined in and he made didn't. he joined in and he made a point of speaking to every single over a fair number of single kid over a fair number of weeks. >> so we've got the, we've got the euros next year and then in a of years after that, a couple of years after that, we've the world i we've got the world cup. i think, the current think, paul, that the current batch to your batch no disrespect to your generation england generation of young england players brilliant players are absolutely brilliant . probably the . i think they're probably the best talented players best batch of talented players we've in a long time. are we we've had in a long time. are we going to win something finally? >> well, i mean, you said it. there we have got a decent set of young players. we've a of young players. we've got a decent set of players. we've got a who's been to a manager who's been to a semi—final final. so it'll semi—final and a final. so it'll be our most experienced manager going into another tournament. but got as well is we but what we've got as well is we have to remember that the have to remember is that the euros, not a strong euros, um, is not a strong tournament anymore. i always used to say that the euros was the most difficult to win

because all the best sides in the world, the majority come from europe now . now europe is from europe now. now europe is quite poor, to be honest. that's why we get poor quality flying now. the qualifiers are awful for the euros. now they're not worth being in. >> so i pick two players out now. paul one from domestic football and one from international football. the two best players you've ever played against and why played against. >> yeah . if i was against and why played against. >> yeah. if i was going to go club level, i mean, there's so many players i played against, but i've always got to mention paul gascoigne in one, you know, in after mention him just what a talent he was. and it's just a shame that he never he couldn't keep it going. and, you know, but then you look at george best someone like that, you know, those kind of players, they don't seem to be around for ten, 15, 20 years do that at that level. they seem to just peak and that's it. and paul's one of them definitely early on the, um, on the international side , i

um, on the international side, i on europe and everything i have to say one of them, which is another great player but injuries curtailed his career was paolo paolo food tray okay the portuguese player played against him athletico madrid he did come to england, he come to west ham, but he's his knees was shot by then. but he was a wonderful player. but there players you know he was a player that not many people would know about but he was a seriously good player. >> well, he had a brilliant career. paul think most young career. paul i think most young men this would give men watching this would give their right arm to do what you've see i can you've done and see if i can remember, of those remember, i'm one of those people. they people. of course they can remember i'm one of remember you. i mean, i'm one of those people that still has dreams about scoring the winning goal then goal in the cup final, and then you wake up and you realise that you're got no you're 50 odd and you've got no chance. been a chance. but it's been a pleasure, mate. thank you. cheers. go cheers. paul. look, do not go away. next, we've got away. coming up next, we've got right versus left. do not go

away.

going too far the other way. you're listening to gb news radio show .

radio show. >> oh, joining me now, we've got the former labour list editor. >> that's peter edwards. good evening. welcome to the show. and again, we've harriet and again, we've got harriet harriet, journalist , harriet, sergeant, journalist, author and just generally nice decent person look look. this week labour leader mr starmer, he made a comment about maggie thatcher. he sort of come out in support of some of the things that margaret did back in the 80s 90s peter, do you think 80s and 90s peter, do you think he was to do so? he was right to do so? >> keir starmer came >> well, keir starmer came out in support leaders, in support of strong leaders, which what anyone who which i think is what anyone who wants prime minister wants to be prime minister should cited blair should do. and he cited blair clement, attlee thatcher. so clement, attlee and thatcher. so of course people the of course some people on the left concerned by that. but left were concerned by that. but britain has a lot of problems if you're standing to be prime minister, you minister, it's right that you cite people have a vision. cite people who have a vision. and of course we on the left disagree enormously with thatcher, over thatcher, particularly over things employment rights, things like employment rights, industrial relations, de—industrialized region of the north. and i spent a lot of time living in the north of england.

and of course, how the social fabnc and of course, how the social fabric changed. and at times a culture greed good. but we culture of greed is good. but we can all that and still can say all that and still recognise was recognise that thatcher was a strong leader. won strong leader. she won elections, she a and elections, she had a vision and she for aria. she was popular for aria. >> well, i think what keir starmer did absolutely starmer did makes absolutely sense to keir starmer and actually tells you a lot about what's going to happen in this election because every time he he says something to upset the left of his party, which praising thatcher, even saying something moderate about thatcher because the only thing they'll hear about thatcher is that she's a witch and she's got to be hanging off a tree. >> so even just saying what he said howls, rage and he does that deliberately because every time he does that, it kind of it kind of soothes and calms the tory voter . kind of soothes and calms the tory voter. and i think this election is going to be won not by a labour or keir doing it. something dramatic, but by tory voters , is just not going out to voters, is just not going out to vote. and keir starmer sees them

as, you know, the tory voter sitting on their sofa and thinking, have i got a reason to go out and vote conservative? no, i am furious with the conservatives for all the following reasons and actually labour hasn't given me a reason not to vote for them . that's all not to vote for them. that's all he's got to do. he's just got to keep people soothed and happy so that they won't go out and not vote. and vote. tory peter soothe in the electorate, is that what keir starmer is trying to do? >> no, i think you've got to do a lot more than that. first of all, keir starmer has got this massive poll lead around 20 points, know the points, but we know from the experts a lot of undecideds in that in what's called the short campaign, some of those undecideds crystallise undecideds will crystallise in favour government because undecideds will crystallise in favoialways government because undecideds will crystallise in favoialways happens. 1ent because undecideds will crystallise in favoialways happens. 1enta ecause that always happens. it's a safety option, the safety first option, picking the government. but secondly, what keir starmer doesn't to do keir starmer doesn't want to do is limp in to office, as is kind of limp in to office, as david cameron did in 2010. what he a to win election on he wants is a to win election on its own terms, win a majority and then get a mandate for

change. and we would obviously disagree about the individual policies, but we'd recognise britain faces host of britain faces a host of challenges around cost of living, buying a house, energy, international security . so to international security. so to deliver these changes, he's got to try to win and win. in fact, not keep in the back. >> i think he's done a reasonable job of squashing the left a little bit with the dissent in his own ranks, whether that's labour mps who are chirping up with are normally chirping up with something and trade union leaders . but will that change if leaders. but will that change if he elected ? well, he does get elected? well, that's exactly it. that's that's exactly it. >> i mean, i think he was he was very good about hamas . i mean, very good about hamas. i mean, his wife is jewish and his children are being brought up as jewish. so it was a very difficult line for him to take. but he did it. and i have to say, that's the first time i've actually felt quite lot of actually felt quite a lot of respect him. but, you know, respect for him. but, you know, don't forget man don't let's forget that this man who today standing up and who is today standing up and praising thatcher only a few years ago was praising corbyn. so it's you sort of wonder what

kind of prime minister is he going to be because he's unsaddle in a long line of both tory and labour prime ministers who seem to absolutely want power desperately. and then once they get into power, don't have a clear vision of what they want . and that's what you feel about starmer and it's going to create, i think , a very create, i think, a very dangerous vacuum. >> so he's praising corbyn one minute. peter is he a bit of a wolf in sheep's clothing? >> i don't accept that at all. and leigh, you're an elected politician and i've been a parliamentary candidate and i was in 2015 2017 times was in 2015 and 2017 at times when was . if you're when keir starmer was. if you're a candidate, you, you campaign for your party leader to be elected . it's simple as elected. and it's as simple as that. >> well, that's strictly >> well, that's not strictly true, it's not strictly true, peter. it's not strictly true, peter. it's not strictly true i can remember true because i can remember being part the labour party being a part of the labour party campaign and our campaign in 2017 and our political pitch to the electorate was , do not worry, electorate was, do not worry, vote labour. you will get a labour mp in ashfield . but the labour mp in ashfield. but the good news is you'll get a conservative leader because corbyn will never win the

election. that was pitch. election. that was our pitch. but but, then walked out. >> but then you walked out. but to back to this question, to come back to this question, keir been strong keir starmer has been a strong leader because day one he did leader because on day one he did absolutely right thing absolutely the right thing 4 or 5 ago. apologise to the 5 years ago. apologise to the jewish community for the hurt caused moderate like caused, and moderate people like me absolutely the me think that was absolutely the right thing. >> why didn't apologise when >> why didn't he apologise when corbyn >> why didn't he apologise when cor because had to tackle the >> because he had to tackle the problem jeremy corbyn >> because he had to tackle the pr not�*m jeremy corbyn >> because he had to tackle the pr not even jeremy corbyn >> because he had to tackle the pr not even a jeremy corbyn >> because he had to tackle the prnot even a labour. remy corbyn is not even a labour. >> it isn't him that tackled. it was the electorate who refused to corbyn. was the electorate who refused to harry, corbyn. was the electorate who refused to harry, izorbyn. was the electorate who refused to harry, i didn't. was the electorate who refused to harry, i didn't talk over >> harry, i didn't talk over you, especially on such sensitive okay keir anti—semitism. okay so keir starmer on day one. starmer apologised on day one. jeremy not even jeremy corbyn is not even a labour mp anymore. he won't be a labour mp anymore. he won't be a labour candidate next labour candidate at the next election shown election of course, he's shown moral leadership trying to moral leadership in trying to reconnect labour party of reconnect the labour party of the public. reconnect the labour party of the plthat really good enough ? >> is that really good enough? >> is that really good enough? >> well, what i think is >> well, i think what i think is really interesting is what he actually said in that telegraph 0p actually said in that telegraph op ed and he actually said that change happen ins in britain when politicians actually listen to what the people are saying rather than dictating to them .

rather than dictating to them. >> is that populist, though? well, i think that's quite extraordinary because the country i mean, we've had brexit. >> we've had seven years now when the people have told politicians what they want, they want immigration controlled. we've had the election, we've had brexit, but nobody listens. we haven't had a single person listen and so here is keir starmer saying this. when he he's not actually going to i cannot see him giving people what they want. i can't see him actually making that very interesting point. but labour is the last party that is suddenly going to cut down on immigration. i mean, surely immigration. i mean, surely immigration is going to refer to laboun >> peter i mean, starmer has been making noises about immigration, getting cut down immigration, getting it cut down to a lot less than what it is at the moment. yet on his backbench , his is his own party saying immigration is good? >> well, i think immigration is good and the economy particularly in london where we are today, would be sunk without

immigration. whether we're talking financial services immigration. whether we're ta|hospitality financial services immigration. whether we're ta|hospitality and ncial services immigration. whether we're ta|hospitality and retail.ervices immigration. whether we're ta|hospitality and retail. and es or hospitality and retail. and i've worked in some of those industries. but but but the key thing there has to be some thing is there has to be some kind of control on immigration. and the difference and i think the difference between the between keir starmer and the government government has government is the government has made it can't made promises that it can't deliver and knows it can't deliver and it knows it can't deliver. you're remember david cameron saying, it down into deliver. you're remember david cantens saying, it down into deliver. you're remember david cantens of iying, it down into deliver. you're remember david cantens of thousandst down into deliver. you're remember david cantens of thousands ,down into deliver. you're remember david cantens of thousands , i.e. n into the tens of thousands, i.e. below 100 k. now we're up much closer to a million, i think keir starmer and shadow home secretary yvette cooper are trying honest with people trying to be honest with people and up one of and they picked up one of labour's ideas from or 5 years labour's ideas from 4 or 5 years ago points system, ago about a points based system, points system . points based system. >> work? because >> does that work? because i'm one people? maybe a bit one of these people? maybe a bit off with my party sometimes where think when we're where i think when we say we're having a points based system and we attracting the brightest and the the globe , the best from around the globe, what actually is what we're actually doing is de—skilling other countries. these are countries that probably need these workers more than do. and i don't than what we do. and i don't think that's the thing to think that's the right thing to do or i don't think the do or i don't think it's the moral do. moral thing to do. >> i mean, see an african >> i mean, you see an african countries countries >> i mean, you see an african

countrieactually countries >> i mean, you see an african countrieactually botheredes >> i mean, you see an african countrieactually bothered to who've actually bothered to train, nurses train, particularly their nurses and doctors, and then we just hoover up these people because we will train people . i we will not train people. i mean, this is why i voted brexit, because i travel a particular reports. i was travelling around the country and people need to be trained and people need to be trained and they need to be paid properly and that i hope that would happen under brexit. but it hasn't because we've had this sort of huge , as you say, as you sort of huge, as you say, as you said, nearly a million people coming in a year. so you're not going to train people who ring up the best talent from around the world. >> we do. we do skilling a lot of countries of the developing countries taking brightest and the taking their brightest and the best they actually, peter, best when they actually, peter, need more what need those people more than what we you're making we do. well lee, you're making the case for having reciprocal arrangements, the case for having reciprocal arra know, nts, the case for having reciprocal arra know, to ;, the case for having reciprocal arra know, to go back to your you know, to go back to your previous question, could the nhs survive immigration? survive without immigration? >> could. and >> i don't think it could. and me, my family probably many me, my family and probably many of have been of your viewers have been treated nurses and treated by foreign nurses and doctors so. but doctors very happily so. but then if we're taking medical talent from other countries, then those countries are poorer.

then we should try and support them, develop their own skills base. >> right. we're going to go to the or no quiz. we're going the yes or no quiz. we're going to keep harriet and peter here with dead with us. this is dead easy, harriet. it's five questions. you can only yes no. you can only answer. yes or no. so number one, will so question number one, will nigel farage win the celebrity jungle? yes >> peter never watched it. never will. >> right. that's an incorrect answer because it's a yes or no . answer because it's a yes or no. quiz number two, peter , should quiz number two, peter, should unions stop their strikes over the christmas period? >> negotiate another incorrect answer to yes or no? >> hurry up. >> hurry up. >> yes, definitely . >> yes, definitely. >> yes, definitely. >> harriet number three, what? starmer right to praise margaret thatcher. >> yes , peter. >> yes, peter. >> yes, peter. >> i think it's right to praise strong leaders and an incorrect answer . answer. >> a yes or no quiz. and number four, peter, do you agree with the increase in the threshold of earnings to £38,000, 700 for overseas workers coming to this country, send it to the migration advisory committee? >> okay. >> okay. >> another incorrect answer. he's not getting the gist of this, a yes or no quiz?

this, is it a yes or no quiz? even the camera are smiling even the camera crew are smiling . and hurry yes. yes and . and hurry up. yes. yes and just a bit of fun for the last one because we've got a footballer on the show today . footballer on the show today. hurry up, will england? the england football team win the world cup in 2026? yes yes. >> it's got one. it's got one. >> so in my maths, which you aren't very good, that's five. one, two, two. harriet peter struggled a little bit with the with the rules. it's a yes or no quiz peter. but some good answers though. do you want to come back on one aria well, just to just i'm just very interested after what we've just been discussed , saying i'm just very discussed, saying i'm just very interested to see what nigel farage does and what what he's going to make happen or whether he's going to make anything happen. >> but i'm really intrigued to know when he comes out whether he's going to use if he if he wins, if he's going to use that to further his political career,

would you go in the jungle if he was offered? >> no , i've been in jungles. >> no, i've been in jungles. >> no, i've been in jungles. >> horrible . i wouldn't >> it was horrible. i wouldn't go back over a million and a half pounds, wasn't it? >> yeah, think so. if they >> yeah, i think so. if they paid well, that's what they do a lot of things for that. >> i always believe >> i don't always believe everything read in the papers, everything i read in the papers, especially me. everything i read in the papers, espyoully me. everything i read in the papers, espyoully ask me. everything i read in the papers, espyoully ask you me. everything i read in the papers, espyoully ask you a me. everything i read in the papers, espyoully ask you a question. >> you can ask you a question. >> you can ask you a question. >> go on then. >> yes, go on then. >> so robert jenrick resigned this week. will sunak this week. will rishi sunak still be prime minister on polling day? yes >> that's easy the quiz is, >> that's how easy the quiz is, peter. it's no. you just peter. it's yes or no. you just go. it will be. yeah, it go. yes, it will be. yeah, it will be. there won't be a change in leadership. that's my honest opinion to opinion anyway. do you want to come one, peter? one of come back on one, peter? one of these questions? well these on these questions? well we've of politics. we've done a lot of politics. >> talk about football. do >> let's talk about football. do 20, a long way off. 20, 20, 26 is a long way off. but i think this is certainly a case. gareth southgate , where we case. gareth southgate, where we should the leader. >> is he good manager? i think so. 50. >> so. >> i mean, i've never met him, but everything we read tells us he's person, he's a good people person, a good man manager, just like the late venables that, late terry venables that, you know, we're all different. you've got 20 odd players, you've got people out the you've got people out of the squad injury try and squad injury form. you try and keep he's, he's

hello darling. and then on your way. so >> yeah, but i'm old school. see, i like that. i think, like onune see, i like that. i think, like online dating killed, like, online dating has killed, like, old school meeting in the pub or in a restaurant. and i'm very much like, bring it back. get out there. go meet people in real life because you just can't replicate the same chemistry when you're typing on a computer as you can in the pub. having a few drinks. >> but i guess these days, though, nadia, i mean, sometimes if sees a woman and vice if a man sees a woman and vice versa, or whatever and you approach them, sometimes it can be all sorts of be accused of all sorts of things well. can't you can, things as well. can't you can, you know, especially in the workplace. >> but the thing is, is two things. first nobody's things. first of all, nobody's going to accuse you for going up and saying hello. do you know what? i feel like this is a misconception that men are like, oh, of like, oh, i'm so scared of like, i can't do anything. well, just don't be a creep. it's really simple. like, so what would be the perfect introduction? >> say you all stood at the bar. they're having a drink, and a young man's there and he wants to acquaintance. what to make your acquaintance. what would for you?

would be acceptable for you? >> one to not interrupt me if i'm talking. so if i'm having a conversation my girlfriend, conversation with my girlfriend, don't over and like, poke don't come over and like, poke me error. like obviously , me error. like i'm obviously, like, read the room. like, if i'm giving you a bit eye i'm giving you a bit of eye contact, green light, come contact, green light, then come over is the easiest, over and always is the easiest, best way . hey, over and always is the easiest, best way. hey, i'm mark. can i buy your drink? and i'm of course. who wouldn't want that ? course. who wouldn't want that? really? yeah. if you find them fit, you're like, okay, there's some i guess some men. some i guess some men. >> some i guess some men. >> i'm women. and sometimes read the wrong signals. i mean , i've the wrong signals. i mean, i've been out back in the day, many, many years ago, like a particular of mine, particular friend of mine, i won't him, but he, he was won't name him, but he, he was always the wrong always reading the wrong signals. and it was normally a two fingered the end two fingered signal at the end of it. >> yeah, but thing is, is >> yeah, but the thing is, is the is, is that we the difference is, is that we can desperation a mile can smell desperation a mile off. you into a pub off. so if you walk into a pub and like, who's single? and you're like, who's single? who can i talk to? then we're going to be like, it'll go away like a caveman coming in. >> and same for so it's >> and same for women. so it's like, know, but if you like, you know, but if you really that, if you're really like, if that, if you're getting a of rejection, it's getting a lot of rejection, it's because you're too many
