coherent plan himself. >> this is what the tories fail to understand about it. >> yes, brexit was a vote for lower immigration. of course it was. seven years they've had to make brexit work. >> but every time they run up against a choice between raising skills and working conditions or issuing more visas , they choose issuing more visas, they choose the higher migration option. and it's not an accident. it's who they are. they're not interested in earning your vote . they feel in earning your vote. they feel entitled to it . entitled to it. >> well , it is entitled to it. >> well, it is becoming increasingly difficult to argue with that, isn't there? then there was some confusion as to whether or not recently resigned immigration minister robert jenrick might actually for jenrick might actually vote for the same bill that he quit over after a quick chat with robert. i broke the news that he was not going full reverse ferries. he would not be voting for the rwanda bill tonight its rwanda bill tonight in its current then at p.m, rwanda bill tonight in its current of then at p.m, rwanda bill tonight in its current of the “hen at p.m, rwanda bill tonight in its current of the new at p.m, rwanda bill tonight in its current of the new conservative, leaders of the new conservative, as danny kruger and miriam cates
9:08 pm
published in the telegraph this rwanda bill will not let us take back control . should back control. you should have bought smoked salmon rishi, bought the smoked salmon, rishi, shouldn't of shouldn't you? or maybe a bit of caviar , maybe little of caviar, maybe a little bit of champagne. but then of champagne. but then out of nowhere, the dup mp sammy nowhere, income the dup mp sammy wilson leading the charge there is a real danger that northern ireland will become a gateway for immigration. if this for illegal immigration. if this bill were to become law. then in another ridiculous sunak another ridiculous twist, sunak summit, climate minister summit, his climate minister graham a fly back from graham stuart a fly back from the climate conference cop 28, in , so that he could lodge in dubai, so that he could lodge his vote before he back his vote before he flies back again. would be a 7000 mile again. that would be a 7000 mile round pumping carbon round trip pumping carbon dioxide into the atmosphere here so that he can back a policy that gets more flights in the air. you love to see it . there air. you love to see it. there were even rumours that the government was threatening to remove anyone who remove the whip from anyone who voted bill, but voted against the bill, but quickly minds. and quickly changed their minds. and just the brexit just before the vote, brexit spartan leader of the erg mark francois. just. just had to have a little moment in the limelight , didn't he? remember yesterday he was calling for rishi to pull the bill? well here he is today.
9:09 pm
ihave the bill? well here he is today. i have just chaired a meeting . i have just chaired a meeting. >> of you in the media are >> of what you in the media are now referring to as the five families in the wilson room. we have decided collectively that we cannot support the bill tonight . tonight. >> right . well, it's nice to see >> right. well, it's nice to see such a group of patriotic, principled, brave individuals choosing to check out sir. so abstain . well, here's what it abstain. well, here's what it all eventually came to in the house of commons. >> the eyes to the right , 313, >> the eyes to the right, 313, the nose to the left, 269. >> so the ayes have it. the ayes have it unlocked . have it unlocked. >> the eyes have it . the eyes >> the eyes have it. the eyes have it. indeed. the rwanda bill passes by a majority of 44. so that's what has happened. we're all up to speed there. okay. we've lived it , haven't we, so
9:10 pm
we've lived it, haven't we, so far today? regrettably a day none of us will ever get back. but what we need to find out now is what's happening right now and happen in the next and what will happen in the next 24 hours so. and for that, 24 hours or so. and for that, there is nobody better than our political editor, christopher hope.chns political editor, christopher hope. chris joins us from hope. chris joins us now from college. green hit what's college. green hit me. what's going . on patrick the right is going. on patrick the right is licking its wounds. >> a 44 majority for the rishi sunak government is more than was being forecast earlier. we thought it might be 10 or 20 that support it. what this means is that this bill is much harder for the house of lords to amend it once it's got through the commons . had it once it's got through the commons. had it it once it's got through the commons . had it been it once it's got through the commons. had it been a very tight margin , then the peers, no tight margin, then the peers, no question, would have used that as an excuse to amend the bill when it got to them . so what when it got to them. so what happens next in the house of commons is there's a session of the full house of commons committee , the full house, committee, the full house, when they amending it, it's they look at amending it, it's very that mr sunak has very clear that mr sunak has told the right that they will be allowed harden up measures allowed to harden up measures that are unhappy with, that they are unhappy with,
9:11 pm
maybe to apply more maybe might to apply a more general notwithstanding clause for all of human rights laws. maybe to maybe relating to these arrivals, just in particular arrivals, not just in particular cases. that is an option in but if it goes too far, the one they can call one nation caucus will join forces with labour vote join forces with labour to vote it down. it's a real delicate high wire act for the pm. you asked before there in your opening remarks , patrick, why do opening remarks, patrick, why do these people abstain , not vote these people abstain, not vote against. they're trying to play the long game. they recognise that had they sunk this rwanda bill today , it would have been bill today, it would have been it would have been historic and jeopardised the stability of the government almost certainly labour would gone ahead labour would have gone ahead with no confidence vote in the with a no confidence vote in the government, by government, probably by thursday. tabling tomorrow, thursday. tabling it tomorrow, and sunak himself could find him out a or facing an out of a job or facing an election, should very, election, i should say, very, very in january and very imminently in january and february. want february. tories don't want that. they're mad, they're that. they're not mad, they're not who for not turkeys who vote for christmas. there's they'd not turkeys who vote for christthat. there's they'd not turkeys who vote for christthat because they'd not turkeys who vote for christthat because they're they'd not turkeys who vote for christthat because they're 23 ey'd want that because they're 23 points in the polls left points behind in the polls left with maybe 135 seats after a february election. that would be madness. so instead, they're
9:12 pm
playing a game here. patrick they're abstaining, withholding support , we reckon, of the 37 support, we reckon, of the 37 tory mps who abstained , only tory mps who abstained, only eight of them had permission, not to be here because they're away on business. they were ill. they couldn't get back in time. so 29 tory mps wilfully abstained. that is enough to overturn the government's working majority at third reading. and that's what could happen. reading. and that's what could happen . so those 29 tory mps, happen. so those 29 tory mps, they're the ones who will be receiving offers lunch and receiving offers for lunch and dinner the chief whip dinner with the chief whip meetings with mr sunak meetings with maybe mr sunak over christmas in chequers. lots of mulled wine, try and make them support the measures and make work. them support the measures and ma yeah,/ork. them support the measures and ma yeah, all. them support the measures and ma yeah, all right. and >> yeah, all right. and meanwhile, british meanwhile, obviously the british pubuc meanwhile, obviously the british public to sit and hold public just have to sit and hold our breath and deal with the ongoing illegal immigration our breath and deal with the ongoinchristopher,nigration our breath and deal with the ongoinchristopher,nigratiyou circus. christopher, thank you very our very much. christopher hope, our political is putting political editor, is putting a right outside right stint from outside parliament. now let's get the thoughts my now. thoughts of my panel now. we've got environment secretary got former environment secretary ronald jayawardena, political commentator suzanne evans, and specialist immigration lawyer whose services we will be requiring tonight. ivan sam thompson, ryan o'neal. i'll
9:13 pm
start with you. what do you make of this? how did you vote ? of this? how did you vote? >> firstly, so i voted with the government to get this bill through second reading for the reason that, of course, christopher hope is absolutely right on, which is that there is an opportunity to here get some tough legislation on the statute book that the labour party would want to oppose . want to oppose. >> as you know, keir starmer has opposed consistently every single piece of legislation to tighten up. if we were to tighten stuff up. if we were to vote this down today, we'd get nothing. so it's far better in our collective judgement , i our collective judgement, i think. and i think that's what we've on floor of the we've seen on the floor of the house people abstaining , house today. people abstaining, voting order that we voting for it in order that we can committee and that can get it to committee and that we tighten it up. we can really tighten it up. >> would have voted >> suzanne would you have voted against this? >> yes, i think it's dog's >> yes, i think it's a dog's dinner bill. so i think dinner of a bill. so i think i possibly would have done. >> i mean, as far i can >> yes. i mean, as far as i can tell, and i'm sure we've got two people side of me that people on either side of me that probably the probably know the detail of the bill than i do. bill much, much more than i do. but as far as i can but basically, as far as i can see, bill declares rwanda see, the bill declares rwanda a safe regardless of
9:14 pm
safe country, regardless of anything basically anything else. it's basically putting that putting into law this idea that rwanda country in rwanda is a safe country in defiance of the supreme court, effectively, ordering the effectively, and ordering the supreme and everybody supreme court and everybody else in to treat it as in the country to treat it as such. also doesn't such. but it's also doesn't prevent any individual migrant taking an appeal, an appealing to the european court of human rights. but then the bill also allows ministers to ignore the european court of human rights in any ruling that might make. i mean , have you ever heard of mean, have you ever heard of such a nonsensical piece of legislation basically legislation that basically challenges the courts, challenges the courts, challenges that the international courts with which, whether you like it or not, at the moment we have a bilateral agreement. dinner the moment we have a bilateral agaement. dinner the moment we have a bilateral aga bill. tl. dinner the moment we have a bilateral aga bill. i've dinner the moment we have a bilateral aga bill. i've never dinner the moment we have a bilateral aga bill. i've never seeniinner the moment we have a bilateral aga bill. i've never seen such of a bill. i've never seen such a mess in my life. >> all right, ivan, as ronald just voted for something that won't work, he did. >> because you look the >> because if you look at the terms the what's terms of the bill, what's interesting is it's clause three. what does is clause three. what it does is clause three. what it does is clause three. basically any three. it excludes basically any challenge, whether it's through the courts, through the human rights act or through common law. but what it doesn't do is
9:15 pm
include excludes section four of the human rights act. so what that means is that the courts here, the supreme court , can here, the supreme court, can declare that that bill in compatible with the european convention on human rights. >> okay. ronald >> okay. ronald >> so i think this is exactly the point , which >> so i think this is exactly the point, which is when we >> so i think this is exactly the point , which is when we get the point, which is when we get this committee in the new this to committee in the new yean this to committee in the new year, every member of parliament can a vote on this . unlike can have a vote on this. unlike most bills. and these are the sorts of things that do need to be tightened up. lots of us are very clear on this with the government. you know, behind the scenes, the conversations scenes, in the conversations that that we want that have been had that we want this work and we want this bill to work and we want things to be tightened up. and you know, that is exactly the point at the point that, you know, at the moment got the courts, moment you've got the courts, the lawyers telling the lefty lawyers telling parliament, telling the ministers do and how to ministers what to do and how to do it. and we do need to make sure that that does not happen anymore. parliament must be supreme. supreme. >> supreme. >> but before i go back to you for the final word on this, i mean, are you one of those lefty lawyers? >> no, i'm actually not a lefty
9:16 pm
lawyer. i'm a lawyer. i'm actually president our actually a president of our local conservative association. but this is it. look, it's not compatible with our international treaty obligations. and what the government is saying is we want we've got this new treaty. it's the law. but we choose which treaties we want to comply with, which treaties we want to and which treaties we want to and which treaties we don't. you can't do that. >> parliamentary supremacy. that's what democracy in this country means, suzanne have the tory right bottled it today. >> i think they have bottled it. but i absolutely take their reasons why christopher hopes elucidated did them very well and so has ronald. they did bottle but probably for bottle it, but probably for saving the skin of the conservative party. ultimately the only way out of this hole, in opinion, is leave the in my opinion, is to leave the european convention on human rights, which not going rights, which which is not going to is it not going to happen? rights, which which is not going to no. not going to happen? rights, which which is not going to no. irot going to happen? rights, which which is not going to no. i thinking to happen? rights, which which is not going to no. i think the to happen? rights, which which is not going to no. i think the viewppen? rights, which which is not going to no. i think the view from’ >> no. i think the view from most people in the conservative party is that right party is that actually right now, to solve this problem, to get flights taking off, we don't have to do that . we need to have to do that. we need to reassert that parliament is
9:17 pm
supreme. parliament decides that the laws this country, the law laws in this country, not courts . and we not the courts. and if we tighten this bill, it can do tighten up this bill, it can do exactly that. that's what robert jenrick and he jenrick resigned on and he believes can be made possible. >> flight? first >> when's that flight? first flight going take off? ranil flight going to take off? ranil well, never. well, i think never. >> a massive debate well, i think never. >> the a massive debate well, i think never. >> the sovereignty ve debate well, i think never. >> the sovereignty of debate about the sovereignty of parliament and the relationship between the executive and the judiciary. is a complex one. there's respect for one there's mutual respect for one another. and what's in the past, what's happened is the courts will interpret domestic legislation in in a way that it doesn't compromise our obugafions doesn't compromise our obligations under international law . and so what the law. and so but what the government done is said government has done is said rwanda is safe . there's no way rwanda is safe. there's no way you interpret any well, you can interpret any well, they've no room for the they've left no room for the courts, which is interpret well , courts, which is interpret well, not really, because on what basis? on parliament decides the law of the land. so not the court well, i got that. but you, you have to make rational decisions based on evidence, not based on. i want it. it sounds like a kid who's got his toy out of a pram in. it's ridiculous.
9:18 pm
>> so what would you do ? >> so what would you do? >> so what would you do? >> i would look at the evidence , >> i would look at the evidence, what i would have i would have no flights taking off to rwanda. no, i wouldn't. >> no, that's the point. >> because there's other ways to deal with it. look, article two of objective of the treaty says objective to deter people coming across on boats. that's the objective of the because i think this is an important issue. >> and then we will move because we're going to have a debate very, very shortly about whether or behind or not it's time to get behind regime at or not it's time to get behind regiinbox at at or not it's time to get behind regiinbox at the at or not it's time to get behind regiinbox at the moment. at or not it's time to get behind regiinbox at the moment. i'llt or not it's time to get behind regiinbox at the moment. i'll go the inbox at the moment. i'll go there gbviews@gbnews.com has rishi assurances rishi sunak given you assurances that there's going to be amendments to this bill that will toughen it up? is that is that where you are? is that why i know you voted for but is that why people have abstained? because they now got because they they have now got complete sunak ? complete trust in rishi sunak? this is to be tougher. this is going to be tougher. >> absolutely you know, >> absolutely. you know, government ministers have been engaged with parliamentarians to make clear that the government will look at amendments. and the key thing is here, if it's not good enough, people will good enough, then people will revisit comes back revisit this when it comes back before the house may well

9:25 pm
after a dramatic day in westminster. when will we get flights to rwanda taking off? but first, it's time for the head to head . and perhaps the head to head. and perhaps the most dramatic day of his premiership . rishi sunak has premiership. rishi sunak has staved off a potentially fatal rebellion with his rwanda bill passing in the commons by a majority of 44 votes. so after his victory tonight, is it time to get behind rishi and rwanda? let me know your thoughts. email me now gbviews@gbnews.com tweet me now gbviews@gbnews.com tweet me at gb news. we've got a poll running on this right now on twitter. i'll bring you the results very shortly. but to debate this, i'm joined by the conservative mp for shipley, philip davies, and the co—founder of novara media, aaron bastani . shapps, thank you aaron bastani. shapps, thank you very much. looking forward to this. look, philip, i'll start with you. i mean, is it time now , now for everyone in the tory party people looking to vote party and people looking to vote conservative to get behind rishi, rwanda ? rishi, get behind rwanda? >> yeah, absolutely . of course
9:26 pm
>> yeah, absolutely. of course it is. i mean, we're in danger here of sleepwalking into a labour government. now, keir starmer is hoping to win the next election by saying nothing, doing nothing and hoping that nobody notices . and it's nobody notices. and it's incumbent on all of us in the conservative party to get that behind the prime minister and actually our guns rather actually turn our guns rather than on ourselves, turn them on the labour party and actually highlight the fact there's the labour party and actually hicompleteie fact there's the labour party and actually hicomplete vacuum there's the labour party and actually hicomplete vacuum at there's the labour party and actually hicomplete vacuum at therheart a complete vacuum at the heart of their policymaking and people are to wake up potentially are going to wake up potentially too late if we're not careful. so look, the thing is, patrick, the conservative party is actually completely united on the whole issue of illegal immigration. we are all united in the in the view that we want to stop illegal immigration and also that we think that sending them to rwanda, a third country, is actually the right solution in the conservative party, in parliament is united in that in that belief. now, obviously, we all have our own particular opinions about whether or not this bill will be wholly effective or whether it could be improved. and all the rest of
9:27 pm
it. but we're completely united in desire to stop illegal in that desire to stop illegal immigration, do what it takes. the on other the labour party, on the other hand, want to stop it and hand, don't want to stop it and certainly don't deport anybody. >> all right. okay, aaron, i'll throw it over to you on this. i mean, i suppose the flip side for you would be, is this been a crushing defeat for keir starmer, really? and the labour party? do you think, party? is it time, do you think, that tories are going that the tories are just going to now? to get behind this now? >> well, i suppose the question i'd put back to, to the both of you suppose, also to your you i suppose, and also to your audience why ? why are the audience is why? why are the conservatives talking so much about rwanda ? about rwanda? >> now? i'm i know many people care very deeply about illegal immigration, ian. and i'm sure for many of your viewers and your one person your listeners, one person coming into this country illegally one too many. but illegally is one too many. but here, here are the numbers so far this year, 27,000 people have come over to the uk on small boats, 27,000. meanwhile in the last years through in the last two years through legal migration, i'll repeat that legal migration , ian. we've that legal migration, ian. we've had net immigration to this country million. so
9:28 pm
country of 1.3 million. so 27,000 versus 1.3 million legally. there is a reason why the conservatives are so relentless focussed on rwanda and small boats, and that's because they want to take attention away from the huge failure on their watch . because failure on their watch. because we know that conservative voters more than anything else, care about migration and yet legal migration has gone up 1.3 million, or we've had net immigration to this country of 1.3 million over two years. so that's a catastrophic failure . that's a catastrophic failure. and the reason why we're having this legislation and the reason why the spotlight going on to why the spotlight is going on to rwanda. agree or disagree with the reason why the policy and the reason why there much emphasis on it there is so much emphasis on it is distract failures elsewhere. >> yeah. okay, look , philip, >> yeah. okay, look, philip, come back to that then. well >> well, the thing is, i'm slightly surprised that i thought was. i thought was slightly surprised that i thofor|t was. i thought was slightly surprised that i thofor bringing. i thought was slightly surprised that i thofor bringing people ght was slightly surprised that i thofor bringing people in: was slightly surprised that i thofor bringing people in from /as all for bringing people in from abroad. and actually , the abroad. and actually, the government always seems to have missed the government agrees. missed is the government agrees. we all that legal we all agree that legal immigration far too high in immigration is far too high in this country. that's why this country. and that's why i think only last week the government it rules government announce it new rules which will prevent 300,000 a
9:29 pm
year from coming into the country who otherwise could come in before these were the immigration numbers that you described are ones that rishi sunak inherited as prime minister not created. and now he's introduced new rules stopping dependants of people, increasing the amount of money that people have to earn before they come into the country. so he's he's already taken action to with high level of to deal with the high level of legal immigration and now he's taking with taking action to deal with illegal immigration, both of which, might are massive which, i might add, are massive issues for voters . even if the issues for voters. even if the labour party haven't yet noticed that. >> i mean, the thing is, aaron, you know, look, like it or loathe the rwanda plan is loathe it, the rwanda plan is a plan. okay? and i think philip does a point, he not, does have a point, does he not, when he says that actually the tories are united it, tories are united behind it, what is to make what they just want is to make sure it gets through the sure that it gets through the courts and actually planes get off keir off the ground. you look at keir starmer that starmer and he's saying that will plan. last will scrap the plan. the last i checked. i mean, what's the point any of that? i mean, point of any of that? i mean, what labour? at what do you get with labour? at least tories have got least the tories have got a plan, suppose plan, i suppose so. >> a few first of all,
9:30 pm
>> a few points. first of all, this plan and it is just a plan. nobody's got on a plane yet. you were missing an e. it's going to cost so far by the end of i think next year, £300 million. we've already given them, i think, the best part of £150 million. nobody has got on a plane, £150 million. all plane, £150 million. for all your viewers , again, listeners your viewers, again, listeners who who engaging with who are who are engaging with this and perhaps agree with philip disagree with how philip and disagree with me, how many do where you many deals do you do where you give £150 million and give somebody £150 million and you nothing in return? you get nothing in return? so far, that's my kind of far, that's my first kind of pushback on that on that pushback really on that on that question i've raised the point around migration . and when around legal migration. and when britain voted for brexit in 2016, whether you voted leave or remain, everybody thought that would mean lower migration . would mean lower migration. everybody, even the people who were the staunchest remainers. that's why they oppose getting brexit done, because they were terrified about, you know, a different kind economic and different kind of economic and political way of running this country. aaron. >> i get what you're saying, but i am going to push back on this a bit here because i do really want to get you on on this
9:31 pm
rwanda thing . right. rwanda specific thing. right. which a for the which is that a vote for the conservative party the moment conservative party at the moment is a vote for rwanda, whether you like it or not. a vote you like it or not. okay. a vote a the labour party a vote for the labour party is a vote for nothing, isn't it? on that, aaron? >> a vote. so so far >> no, it's a vote. so so far ifs— >> no, it's a vote. so so far it's a vote for spending £150 million nothing. that's what it's a vote for spending £150 m ision nothing. that's what it's a vote for spending £150 m ision far. nothing. that's what it's a vote for spending £150 m ision far. okay. g. that's what it's a vote for spending £150 mision far. okay. if that's what it's a vote for spending £150 m ision far. okay. if they's what it is so far. okay. if they deliver . patrick by the way, deliver. patrick and by the way, i've got oh, i've got a oh, okay. >> go on. »- >> go on. >> philip i've got a i've got to nail this. >> i've got a nail. >> i've got a nail. >> i've got to nail this though aaron, because the labour party wants of wants to increase the amount of overseas gives and overseas aid that it gives and it wants to increase the amount of gives to of overseas aid it gives to african so so it african countries. so so it wants to actually give. hold on a minute. >> it wants actually give an >> it wants to actually give an extra billion a year in extra £2 billion a year in overseas aid to african countries for nothing return . countries for nothing in return. >> and it's complaining about giving to rwanda, where giving money to rwanda, where we're for something in we're hoping for something in return. both return. you can't have it both ways can't we want to ways. you can't say we want to give get give overseas aid and get nothing return that, and nothing in return for that, and that's about that's fine. but complain about rwanda, where we're hoping to get something return , right? get something in return, right? >> say that's a great >> well, i'd say that's a great point. but first of all, i don't
9:32 pm
think should increase i think we should increase aid. i think we should increase aid. i think is scam. think most aid is a scam. i think most aid is a scam. i think unless it's humanitarian disasters contrary or disasters or contrary or maternal health or clean drinking water, i think most of it's a scam that's the first point. and secondly, philip, the foreign secretary, your colleague, david cameron, although he's not as although he's not an mp as a lord, he wants to increase aid. he committed after 2010 he was committed after 2010 to keeping overseas aid to 0.7% of gdp. that was his hallmark policy. so i would have to push you back on that. and then finally, i'll this point. you back on that. and then finally, lots this point. you back on that. and then finally, lots of this point. you back on that. and then finally, lots of talkiis point. you back on that. and then finally, lots of talk about1t. you back on that. and then finally, lots of talk about how there's lots of talk about how now we've had this thing go through parliament. you know, and fair play to rishi, right? they pressure be they created this pressure to be close. it close . fair close. it wasn't close. fair play close. it wasn't close. fair play to him. very good politic behind all of it. but the reality the supreme reality is we've had the supreme court in this country since 2009. it's actually very recent. my 2009. it's actually very recent. my personal view and the view of people speak to who about my personal view and the view of pe0|stuff,peak to who about my personal view and the view of pe0|stuff, they to who about my personal view and the view of pe0|stuff, they sayvho about my personal view and the view of pe0|stuff, they say you about my personal view and the view of pe0|stuff, they say you cannot)out this stuff, they say you cannot get this legislation as get this legislation through as long have the supreme long as we have the supreme court and nobody the court and nobody in the tory party saying rid of the party is saying get rid of the supreme because they supreme court because they know that be hard. they'd that would be very hard. they'd have for their have to really work for their supper to do that. and so i have
9:33 pm
a philip. does he a question for philip. does he believe, european believe, forget the european convention on human rights, forget whether or not we're subject to european courts. we have supreme court this have a supreme court in this country. if the supreme country. okay. if the supreme court in country defies court in this country defies parliament, he do parliament, what would he do about ? about it? >> philip, word. >> philip, final word. >> philip, final word. >> well. lord >> well, well, well. lord sumption, who a former sumption, who was a former member the supreme court, member of the supreme court, has actually abundantly actually made it abundantly clear states it clear that if he states it clearly in the bill and he said he's read the bill as far as he's read the bill and as far as he's read the bill and as far as he's he does state it he's concerned, he does state it perfectly clearly, the supreme court the of court will accept the will of parliament because what happens. >> court doesn't happens. >> laws. court doesn't happens. >> laws. it court doesn't happens. >> laws. it implements�*sn't happens. >> laws. it implements the make laws. it implements the law. if parliament its law. and if parliament makes its views hasn't in views clear, which it hasn't in this will implement it. this bill, it will implement it. but heard from arron, but what we've heard from arron, again, lot of again, we've heard a lot of bluster. is not one plan bluster. there is not one plan to deport an illegal immigrant out country anywhere out of this country anywhere else. that is the labour party does not believe in deporting , does not believe in deporting, citing any failed asylum seeker out of this country. that is the fact of the matter. and arron just blusters around and confirms the fact that they've got absolutely no plan to deal with illegal immigration at all. >> right, obviously we
9:34 pm
>> all right, look, obviously we could this on, but could carry this on, but unfortunately, of unfortunately, we are out of time. you, thank you very >> both of you, thank you very much. it's a proper head to head. that's what we love to see. really appreciate you see. i really appreciate you both very both coming on. thank you very much. for much. conservative mp for shipley and shipley there, philip davies and the media, the co—founder of novara media, aaron look, who do aaron bastani. so look, who do you with there? mps you agree with there? after mps passed is it passed the rwanda bill? is it time get behind rishi and time now to get behind rishi and the rwanda plan? on twitter the rwanda plan? ali on twitter says and mirrors the says it's smoke and mirrors the bill change nothing. the bill will change nothing. the government will claim it as a success. rishi needs new ideas. if vote . jane on if he wants my vote. jane on twitter says i'm totally in favour of the rwanda plan, but i could never, ever get behind rishi. gosh, there's layers to this, isn't there? from you, johnny twitter. twitter says johnny on twitter. twitter says even if are a lifelong tory even if you are a lifelong tory voter, surely you can agree that this rwanda policy is absolutely mental. there is zero probability that a flight heads to rwanda. we are a laughing stock . yeah. the thing is, you stock. yeah. the thing is, you can get behind rwanda. you can get idea that you get behind the idea that you don't a labour government. don't want a labour government. you get behind idea that you can get behind the idea that labour clear labour haven't got a clear plan on but is, even if on it. but the fact is, even if this through, is it going this goes through, is it going to is it really going to
9:35 pm
to work? is it really going to work? look, your verdict is work? but look, your verdict is in 43% of agree that it in now 43% of you agree that it is to get behind rishi and is time to get behind rishi and rwanda. wow 57% of you say that it isn't . and that i think is it isn't. and that i think is actually a very good mirror of the nation that on this. so keep your views coming in. of course. vaiews@gbnews.com loads to unpack here but look , as the unpack here but look, as the saudis fight back against the phasing out of fossil fuels at cop 28, who could have seen that coming as the world's biggest virtue signalling summit been exposed as a complete and utter waste of time. plus is it okay to be proud about being fat, not just a little bit fat. i mean, like really, really fat . gb news like really, really fat. gb news star nana akua joins with her strong views that issue very, strong views on that issue very, very but next, as rishi very shortly. but next, as rishi rides out the tory rise rebellion, are we actually any closer to flights getting off the ground? will this ever happen? hear from policing happen? we hear from policing minister chris philp before former home office minister lord greenhall. this is what i want to know when i come back. when will flights to rwanda take off?
9:36 pm
don't
9:37 pm
9:38 pm
9:39 pm
isabel monday to thursdays from. six till 930 . six till 930. >> all right. let's get more reaction now to rishi's rwanda victory in the commons because i'm going to go over to our political editor, christopher hope, who caught up with policing minister chris philp . policing minister chris philp. let's find out what he had to say . say. >> i think we're pleased in government to have had a very solid 44 vote this evening. solid 44 vote win this evening. i think in saying that
9:40 pm
i think i'm right in saying that not single conservative voted not a single conservative voted against evening, against the bill this evening, which is a good result. this is, of course, the most comprehensive and far reaching piece of immigration legislation in this parliament. has ever passed. >> you said that that no mps voted against it, but plenty abstained. in fact , if those abstained. in fact, if those abstentions become mps voting against it, you'll lose the bill at a third reading. >> well, i think the bill >> well, i think as the bill completes its passage, obviously the be listening the government will be listening in and constructive in an open and constructive way to ideas . members to any sensible ideas. members of have to make sure of parliament have to make sure this is as tight as it can be. >> how do you feel about that? actually not one conservative mp voted against this. interesting isn't it? for all the bluster and all the guff that we had to put with for a couple of put up with for a couple of days, oh, this cannot stand. we're going this. we're days, oh, this cannot stand. we're to ing this. we're days, oh, this cannot stand. we're to get this. we're days, oh, this cannot stand. we're to get the this. we're days, oh, this cannot stand. we're to get the stars. we're days, oh, this cannot stand. we're to get the star chamber going to get the star chamber involved, chamber, involved, the star chamber, assemble the star chamber. not a single a sausage single person, not a sausage voted . well, i'm voted against this. well, i'm joined now by conservative peer voted against this. well, i'm join
9:41 pm
off? >> well, this is the last chance saloon for these flights to take off before a general election . off before a general election. and i can't say when, but if this bill doesn't pass, obviously it's not going to happen this side of the election , what do think the , then what do you think the chances are of there being a flight , even if even if this flight, even if even if this bill passes at the earliest opportunity, if there actually being a flight to rwanda before the next election ? well, i don't the next election? well, i don't think that's the question. how i frame it. i think the tension here is between those people that don't want to see any breach of international law . and breach of international law. and that's where you saw the one nafion that's where you saw the one nation caucus come out. and those that want policy those people that want a policy that acts as an effective deterrent where you may step into disputes in terms of international law, but you will get the last large number of illegal migrants to rwanda and the issue with this policy is that if it goes through and you pass the bill, that the section 39 exclusions then come in and then we get a third plane that
9:42 pm
is empty, having spent many hundreds of millions on the policy, and that would be electoral disaster for the conservatives. so that's where the concerns coming in. it's the concerns are coming in. it's not you know, it's the tension between staying the right between staying on the right side of international law and having an effective deterrent . having an effective deterrent. and it doesn't seem to you know, it seems to be some some dispute, as were that that can be achieved with this policy that's so that right . that's so exactly that right. >> so are we now all just having massive rows, whether it's down the pub in parliament, in studios like this , over a bill studios like this, over a bill that in any shape or form probably won't work? it complies with international law, won't be a deterrent because a handful of asylum seekers might go. >> that is exactly the reason why the bill minister until last week robert i work week resigned. robert i work for robert because was robert actually because i was across his department housing across his department in housing and the home office with and also in the home office with priti patel when boris was prime minister and it's quite clear that he feels that it's not going to work and he didn't want to put his time and effort and reputation the line for reputation down on the line for
9:43 pm
a that he didn't think was a bill that he didn't think was going at the other end. going to work at the other end. and is is some and now there is there is some dispute about and you'll dispute about this and you'll get legal get loads of different legal opinions. bill minister opinions. but the bill minister looks this very carefully and looks at this very carefully and obviously braverman obviously with suella braverman has come and said much the has come out and said much the same . as a distinguished same thing. as a distinguished lawyer have lawyer and they'll have consulted friends . consulted their legal friends. and that is the that's the rub. this policy that seems not this is a policy that seems not to work without taking on the international legal framework. >> but what happened ? what >> but what happened? what changed? because this time yesterday, it was pull the bill. pull the bill. you know, the five families, don, mark francois leone and the five families were all say we'll pull the bill, i want to pull it. and then today it's abstain. so what's happened? >> well well, i think what's happened that you've got to happened is that you've got to pay happened is that you've got to pay tribute to the downing street operation. i was in parliament today and the, um, the you know, the prime minister did a very good job. he was in reception for the 1922 this evening the chancellor for evening with the chancellor for working corridors , having working the corridors, having breakfast meetings. and it
9:44 pm
clearly persuaded clearly worked and persuaded people that, you know, he's open to improvements to the bill. and this is the second reading. it's not the game. and he lives not the end game. and he lives to another day tomorrow he to fight another day tomorrow he comes see the peers the comes to see the peers and the association of conservative peers to us why we peers to explain to us why we should be supporting the bill. so know, great effort on so you know, a great effort on the ground by the prime minister and his team. you've pay and his team. you've got to pay tribute no one thought tribute to that. no one thought they going 44 vote majority. >> i just wonder now whether or not that's true, not whilst that's true, obviously , you know, it's it's obviously, you know, it's a it's a victory for rishi sunak. a big victory for rishi sunak. we'll very we'll be sleeping very well tonight. what tonight. he's outperformed what many thought , you know, many people thought, you know, and deserves a heck a lot and he deserves a heck of a lot of for that. just of credit for that. i just wonder if the focus now turns to the tory. right and people say you a bacon you were bought off with a bacon sandwich 8:00 this morning. sandwich at 8:00 this morning. well you abstain, well i think when you abstain, you keeping you basically keeping your powder recognise you're powder dry, you recognise you're not knock the bill down. >> but equally there, this is not the final curtain call. so you know, i don't think this is all over yet by any means. and the issues with the bill remain. so it's and i have to say, the
9:45 pm
prime minister faces very prime minister faces a very uphill struggle with the lords where you've got lots of lawyers, lots of opinions and an inbuilt opposition majority. so this is not an easy bill to get through parliament. right. >> okay. right. look one last, final one with you and i am just going to press you on this. i don't know if you're betting don't know if you're a betting man all right, look, £10 man or not. all right, look, £10 does does does a flight take off to before next to rwanda before the next election? roll your election? you can roll your eyes. it's what everyone's asking. everyone wants asking. it's what everyone wants to know. >> i think think, think. the bill. i think the think the bill. i think the i think the bill. i think the i think the bill. it does pass, the worse bill. if it does pass, the worse it should. nato situation is a flight that is supposed to take off and it ends up virtually empty. would be empty. that would be catastrophic for the conservatives. i hope if conservatives. so i hope that if it does pass, it works. otherwise, we're just wasting our . our time. >> i appreciate it. you've been a good sport as well and thank you very much for that insight. that lord greenhouse. there that is lord greenhouse. there former office minister, former home office minister, conservative peer. look, what do you views at gb you make of that? gb views at gb views .com. i do wonder if the focus does shift away now from rishi or
9:46 pm
rishi sunak into whether or not the right have been bought the tory right have been bought off a bit here. does that off a bit here. how does that make feel? maybe being make you feel? maybe i'm being completely make you feel? maybe i'm being compthe ly make you feel? maybe i'm being compthe responsible thing for done the responsible thing for their party. coming after their party. but coming up after rishi sunak rwanda eased rishi sunak rwanda plan eased through, through the through, eased through the commons, the so—called five commons, are the so—called five families. now, nothing more than bottle jobs . find out in my mono bottle jobs. find out in my mono shortly where i say that the british public are being taken for fools. but next rishi sunak hold his climate minister to vote on the rwanda bill despite crunch talks from the saudis at cop 28, is net zero now doomed to failure ? plus, are we about to failure? plus, are we about to failure? plus, are we about to see the rise of so—called fat pride here in the uk? find out why in a second. gb news don nana akua hits out at our snowflake society. you don't want
9:47 pm
9:48 pm
9:49 pm
more forensic analysis of this explosive rwanda vote coming up. but time now for gb news darling
9:50 pm
nana akua. just days after the president of climate summit cop 28 stunned the world by saying there was no science behind the demands to phase out fossil fuels, the gathering in dubai is now being dubbed a complete and utter waste of time after countries failed to agree a new climate change tackling deal. host nation the uae said it was angung host nation the uae said it was angling for a new draft agreement for 200 nations to agreement for 200 nations to agree on amid a huge row over the de—man ization of fossil fuels . a uk government fuels. a uk government spokesperson said this. this draft is disappointing and does not go far enough. the uk position is clear there must be a phase out of unabated fossil fuels to meet with our climate needs. but the likes of oil king, saudi arabia have obviously led the charge against gas and coal being phased out. nana thank you very, very much. look should we be surprised that the world's biggest virtue signalling conference has turned into of hot air? into a load of hot air? >> well, i couldn't be more
9:51 pm
delighted that finally we people are speaking up and saying there is no confirmed science behind this. this is all based on modelling and we saw how well modelling and we saw how well modelling went with covid. i mean, look, if you put the wrong things into a model, you're going to get the wrong things out. frankly, it's no surprise that this has happened. first of all, the cop president is a guy called al jabr. he's head called al jabr. he's the head of the owned saudi company the state owned saudi company called adnoc. they're an oil and gas company. in fact, most of the oil and gas companies are owned by the state because the saudis, stupid . why saudis, they're not stupid. why would off all your would you sell off all your biggest assets to private enterprises? and of course , it enterprises? and of course, it was rumoured that the conference was rumoured that the conference was used as a way of sort of negotiate getting others to stop using fossil fuels so they could sell the fossil fuel . the people sell the fossil fuel. the people who were at the conference. it's absurd. i'm so glad. finally, money talks and the rest of it walks and frankly, people are coming to the realisation that without fossil fuels, we literally we will be bankrupt .
9:52 pm
literally we will be bankrupt. >> i mean, the idea that there is such an emergency going on now and that everybody needs to take private jets there and back and one mp can take a private jet there and back in the same day we think. so we can vote on a bill in parliament that ironically, would see more flights taking off. i mean, it's almost like nana. it's almost like isn't an like maybe there isn't an absolute existential emergency going on. >> well, well, look, i mean, this is sunak went to cop and he spent more time flying there and back than he did at the conference itself . 80, almost conference itself. 80, almost 80,000 people went there. it's a jolly most of them flew by private jets, as you said, patrick, the king went in his own jet. fair enough. david cameron in his own jet rishi sunak. it's like all on a minute. how stupid do you think we are? then they're all chatting in the oil rich country of dubai. yeah. hello >> the only benefit for them nana the only benefit genuinely for them having it there was that. that is a country that bans protesters. so the likes of
9:53 pm
greta thunberg and just stop oil could turn up and they just get carted straight prison. carted straight off to prison. but you're going to but look, i know you're going to get into this because get stuck into this because so—called pride is sweeping so—called fat pride is sweeping america as becomes the america as colorado becomes the first years to pass first state in 50 years to pass laws fat phobia, laws combating fat phobia, politicians planning rules politicians are planning rules that will add a person's weight to the list of characteristics such as race and sexual such as age, race and sexual orientation . persons that are orientation. persons that are protected discrimination. protected from discrimination. an who fails to give an an employer who fails to give an oversized desk , for example, to oversized desk, for example, to a chubby worker could well find themselves being sued . and it themselves being sued. and it comes as a plus size tiktoker , comes as a plus size tiktoker, who calls herself big, big curvy olivia, shared a video calling out united airlines for discriminating against a nana. what's going on? >> oh, for goodness sake. look, first of all, fat shaming is totally wrong. okay? so you know, you don't be horrible to people because they're overweight. that's not on. but the reason why people are you know, why governments and people like me encourage people to be a healthy weight. it's because of health, a healthy weight. that's the clue to obesity is one of
9:54 pm

statement yesterday . statement yesterday. >> we have decided and collectively that we cannot support the bill tonight . support the bill tonight. >> yeah, well, i mean , look, >> yeah, well, i mean, look, there we go again. that was, of course, him earlier today, wasn't it? dom francois leone is about to take the prime minister to task on this. he's going to he's going to make him an offer he's going to make him an offer he refuse. what are you he can't refuse. what are you going do, don? going to do, don? >> both of us will abstain . >> both of us will abstain. well, all right. >> you're going to abstain. it's just that you all right? i just thought you wanted to pull the bill because it's too hard to amend . and now it's just we've amend. and now it's just we've been going on about this all day, haven't don? know? day, haven't we, don? you know? and going to abstain. and now you're going to abstain. are all right? you'll are you all right? and you'll just accept that it'll make the amendments you amendments that you that you want. think maybe you want. do you think maybe you bottled it a mate? the fact bottled it a bit, mate? the fact is that a huge amount of stink has been caused. today, the government nearly itself government nearly ripped itself apart for nothing for the tentative support for a bill that won't work on the promise
10:08 pm
that won't work on the promise that will amended to form that it will be amended to form a better bill that still a new, better bill that still won't work . the big losers here won't work. the big losers here are the british public. it's you and me, the reason why the tory right blinked is because it would have brought down sunak, which will have caused the general and probably general election and probably would in would have seen labour in downing i'm downing street, which i'm convinced will just have to deal with anyway with for a few years anyway before maybe a proper conservative government actually emerges. just think, four emerges. but just think, four years ago today, boris johnson won a landslide general election and now here we are . they're and now here we are. they're fighting like cats in a sack . fighting like cats in a sack. they'll get their christmas break. of course. now and then there'll be another argument over amendments in january or february or whenever it comes. and exactly the same and we'll be in exactly the same position again with don francois leone threatening to vote against it. the one nation not backing labour revelling backing it, labour revelling in the not having the chaos despite not having a plan themselves. we are called great britain. all right. the pubuc great britain. all right. the public are great. think some public are great. i think some of politicians are bloody of our politicians are bloody useless. actually. they are showing utter contempt the showing utter contempt for the people their wages by people who pay their wages by stringing like this stringing us along like this sort out get lost . well,
10:09 pm
sort it out or get lost. well, to respond to this now, i am rather awkwardly joined by former environment secretary. try a wardner conservative mp i've also got political commentator. susanna was not referring to you, of course. randall political commentator suzanne evans , a specialist suzanne evans, a specialist immigration lawyer. ivan samson. ronald, i will come to you first. have i been far too harsh there? >> well well, you're absolutely right to say is that this is an important issue for the british public. and we all get that. the question today was how do we get those flights to rwanda going? and my group that i chair, the growth group , we took a very growth group, we took a very different view from mark. we took the view that actually quite early on that the way to do this is to amend it in committee. so the reasonable right today took the view that actually let's have those discussions, let's have that debate in january. i'm afraid actually the really unreasonable part of parliament is the left.
10:10 pm
it's the labour party and keir starmer has rejected tighter rules on asylum 14 times since he was elected, abstained 22 times. that's the that's the threat to this country. >> okay . all right, suzanne, it >> okay. all right, suzanne, it says on the screen there, did the rwanda rebels bottle it? >> did they? i think they did. i think you were spot on, actually, patrick. actually actually, patrick. i'm actually as of ordinary voter as a kind of ordinary voter really of this, really looking at all of this, somebody wants to control somebody that wants to control immigration and stop the boats. somebody that wants to control irlook ration and stop the boats. somebody that wants to control irlook ation and stop the boats. somebody that wants to control irlook at thisind stop the boats. somebody that wants to control irlook at this and;top the boats. somebody that wants to control irlook at this and i)p the boats. somebody that wants to control irlook at this and i justie boats. somebody that wants to control irlook at this and i just think, s. i look at this and i just think, what . we've we've had what a farce. we've we've had three home secretaries who go to rwanda , not single migrants, rwanda, not single migrants, gone to miranda. it's cost about 50 million. so far. we've wasted all this parliamentary time. we've been talking about it endlessly for years. like i said, the day i see a rwanda flight get off is the day i will be all mightily surprised. i just don't think it's going to happen. you said earlier, ivan, that point of this that the whole point of this bill as a deterrent to these bill was as a deterrent to these people coming over in boats. so they didn't come any more . we they didn't come any more. we know chris did some know chris white did some amazing reporting for gb news
10:11 pm
last week. he interviewed them. they don't give a damn about whether or not they're going to be sent rwanda. it is not be sent to rwanda. it is not a deterrent. it's a waste of parliamentary time and it's a waste time. just waste of british time. just before i come to you, ivan, let's remind ourselves let's just remind ourselves of what mark francois said yesterday. so let's have that. >> okay? so let's have that. >> okay? so let's have that. >> so the bill as drafted is not really fit for purpose. so the consensus of a meeting of five different backbench groups that i've just finished chairing was that the government, rather than plough on regardless, would be better to pull the bill and to come back with a better draft that doesn't have all these holes in it. right. but that changed, didn't it? >> that changed massively. what do you think happened there? you know, do you with your especially with your legal hat on, do you think anything has gone on behind the scenes there? >> look, the law hasn't >> well, look, the law hasn't changed yesterday to today. changed from yesterday to today. >> jenrick , who created >> robert jenrick, who created this bill, he was the mastermind behind it. his boss, suella
10:12 pm
braverman, was involved in it. both of them have said it's legally flawed . obviously, legally flawed. obviously, i think there's been some back deals done between rishi sunak. you've got to give credit to for rishi today. you have to. he's pulled it around. having series of meetings, probably in the corridors in the house of commons and bringing people on board. but the problem is there's going to be a showdown. patrick there's going to be a showdown at the. okay supreme court corral between the judges and the politicians . and that's and the politicians. and that's where we're heading. yeah so it's groundhog day, isn't it? >> yeah, it is. it's just groundhog day and we're all we're all suffering. i'm going to put clip to you now, if to put a clip to you now, if that's right. which is? that's all right. which is? i believe liam fox, who believe we've got liam fox, who had a couple of bits and bobs to say earlier on, let's have it. >> was bill cash wrong to be concerned about? it? is mark francois colleague francois wrong? he's a colleague of yours ? on the right of yours. of yours? on the right of yours. of yours? on the right of the party? no piece of of the party? well, no piece of legislation is perfect and we'll
10:13 pm
want to see it committed. >> whether it can be improved. >> whether it can be improved. >> but what we can't have is grandstanding on these issues. >> we have to get on and govern. >> we have to get on and govern. >> and as i say to two colleagues in politics, you know, follow your heart , but do know, follow your heart, but do take your brain with you . take your brain with you. >> so he's with you, i think rightly saying we can't have grandstanding on this . i'm grandstanding on this. i'm assuming reading between the lines he talking about lines there, he is talking about the grandstanding we the kind of grandstanding we saw from francois elianne from dom francois elianne earlier colleagues, i think >> well, colleagues, i think today have made the right call by not voting it down. so that, of a decision that of course, is a decision that people and i welcome people have taken and i welcome that. i think liam is exactly right. we've got to get on and govern. and the way to do that is to look at amending this bill. but, you know, here's the thing actually it's not a thing that actually it's not a showdown between parliamentarians and the judges. in the first instance. there are two other moments. the first is when this comes back to committee house of committee in the house of commons january, where if it commons in january, where if it isn't tightened there isn't tightened up, there will be many people that will vote against it the second is the
10:14 pm
against it and the second is the house lords, the house of lords, because the house of lords, because the house is full lefty house of lords is full of lefty lawyers and they will want to try and reject it and send it back , aided by labour mps and back, aided by labour mps and the house of commons, not a single them for it. single one of them voted for it. >> get some clarity before >> can i get some clarity before i it to the rest of i open it up to the rest of panel? what does tightening it up mean? >> so at the moment there are too many concerns there too many concerns that there will claims made . will be individual claims made. and the moment it, and whereas, at the moment it, you know, at the moment you can actually make it on a much wider bafis. actually make it on a much wider basis . so it actually make it on a much wider basis. so it has tightened it up in the right direction. there is further to go to make sure that ministerial decisions, for example , can't be taken to example, can't be taken to judges , slow the whole process judges, slow the whole process down and undo the great purpose of this bill. >> can i give clarity on the individual claims? it's not going to happen. look in your view, have to read the law. view, you have to read the law. you have to read, read the text. what text says that what the text says that individuals on their personal circle instances notwithstanding, not excluding , notwithstanding, not excluding, that rwanda is a safe country , that rwanda is a safe country, so they can't make it on the grounds that it's not safe for
10:15 pm
me there. they can only make challenges on the grounds of my personal circumstance. so let me think of something i could say. i flying right ? think of something i could say. i flying right? i i don't like flying right? i hate flying . so you can't take hate flying. so you can't take me to rwanda . i mean, that's me to rwanda. i mean, that's what we're talking about. so what we're talking about. so what could happen here? well i don't think that's going to sway the judges, but what the point is so the bar is so high that there's not going to be any individual challenge that is not the problem. the problem is the incompatibility of the bill with europe in courts and the right of the european courts to intervene. that is the problem. and then you have clause five, which says that ministers can overrule an injunction application . but if a minister application. but if a minister does that, guess what will happen? they'll appellants will run off to the high court again and judicial review it. so you know, we're going to have year, a year of this, right. >> okay, ronald. and then i'll give final word susan.
10:16 pm
give a final word to susan. >> this exactly the point. >> so this is exactly the point. this the needs to this is where the bill needs to be up. those be tightened up. so those ministers acting on behalf of this country on of this country and on on behalf of parliament, can make decisions knowing that lefty lawyers are not their work. not going to undo their work. >> all right. >> all right. >> on. >> all right. >>-on. can't >> all right. >> on. can't tighten >> come on. you can't tighten up, of the echr. it up, up because of the echr. it won't work . they are always won't work. they are always going to effectively rip it to pieces. >> can i just ask you look, as i don't know about how our viewers feel on this as well, do get in touch. vaiews@gbnews.com. i'm just flipping sick of it. i'm sick of it. you know, it's been going on and on and on and, you know, we're getting to the granular of a legal text granular detail of a legal text and is and i understand that is important. so stupid important. i'm not so stupid that i don't think that matters at does matter. at all. it does matter. but, you know, from this know, we are years on from this first proposed as idea. first being proposed as an idea. we're here today. and we're back here again today. and this is after the whole brexit fiasco, way, where you've fiasco, by the way, where you've got the five families or whatever means. whatever the heck that means. now, going , oh, now, you know, seeing going, oh, we're to we're going to we're going to we're going to abstain on this. we're going to defer until january or defer it again until january or february. suzanne, february. i just think, suzanne, most people want end most ordinary people want an end to yeah, everybody wants end >> yeah, everybody wants an end to still

you can tell, i do not really appreciate renaissance art, otherwise i would have known to how before. false how pronounce that before. false rumours circulated that she had singled muslims for insult singled out muslims for insult and racist comments that and made racist comments that led a coordinated hate led to a coordinated hate campaign being launched against the on social media, the teacher on social media, with one colleague saying, we're deaung dealing with vindictive parents who believe their who prefer to believe their children than us. now important timing here, because this comes just days after six french teenagers were convicted for their roles in the 2020 islamist beheading of a french school teacher called samuel paty after he offended allegedly muslim pupils and tensions seem to be growing across europe. sweden has closed islamic schools . has closed islamic schools. switzerland is banning the burqa . both france and belgium have witnessed islamist killings of teachers and football fans recently. all within the last few months . so should europe few months. so should europe start pushing back big time against fundamental islam, especially in schools? to debate this now, i am joined by british
10:25 pm
imam and broadcaster ajmal masroor up against author and expert in social cohesion, dr. akiba san. look, both of you, thank you very much. i'm very much looking forward to this debate. and raqib, i'll debate. and dr. raqib, i'll start with you. does europe have to push back against fundamentalist ? to push back against fundamentalist? is to push back against fundamentalist ? is there fundamentalist? is there something here that needs pushing against it? pushing back against it? >> well , it's pushing back against it? >> well, it's something that i've talked about on a number of occasions that we have a very serious problem in various european societies when it comes to islamist extremism . but i to islamist extremism. but i wouldn't necessarily treat this particular episode as a form of islamist extremism. and i'll explain why. patrick so we're talking about a 17th century renaissance era painting . renaissance era painting. according to the bbc, this painting was shown in a classroom involving pupils as young as 12, as young as 11. sorry. so i do think in that kind of situation , in socially kind of situation, in socially conservative parents do have a
10:26 pm
right to raise their concerns over those kind of materials being shown in the classroom. and i think that of course, there's a debate to be had in terms of to a degree of independence schools should have, in terms of which materials they can show how much involvement parents should have when the education when it comes to the education that their children provide. but i think france and i think i do think france and i think this is actually where the uk fares better. france has fares much better. france has a very serious issue comes very serious issue when it comes to rigidly secular model of to its rigidly secular model of republican universalism and the very existence of socially conservative minorities in the country who face very real forms of discrimination . patrick but of discrimination. patrick but they often go unnoticed, largely because of this rigid colour—blind egalitarianism in france. >> all right, i'll throw it over to you now, british imam and broadcaster ajmal masroor . look, broadcaster ajmal masroor. look, we are seeing i would suggest maybe the desire potentially by some quarters of the islamic community to try to impose their sensibilities in norms on the
10:27 pm
existing society . is that existing society. is that something that you agree with and should that be pushed back upon ? upon? >>i upon? >> i think firstly, i want to thank ricky for his point . i thank ricky for his point. i agree with most of what he has said. i think the fact that muslim communities in france are less than 10% of the population and yet if you were to look at the census figure, you would find 67,500 currently behind bars . prison population happened bars. prison population happened to have 70. muslims i mean, there is something fundamentally gone wrong with the french model of integration. french model of bringing minorities together. we i call france as a secular extremist country, a secular fundamentalist country. we have secular country , britain. we secular country, britain. we have secular countries in other parts of the world. you don't have to impose your value on anybody. secularism or pluralism, as i call it, is about allowing the open space for people to discuss and debate , have dialogue and accept it to live with one another, even with
10:28 pm
our differences. and if france wants to create a monolith of french citizens, whether they're muslims, christians or people of faith or no faith, they will fail because people are by nature, not one type. we are all different. so we don't need to push anything just that different. so we don't need to push areassured just that different. so we don't need to push areassured we just that different. so we don't need to push areassured we are that different. so we don't need to push areassured we are muslim you're reassured we are muslim community is a very small community, both in the uk and france and we are very happy to integrate and is that true? >> fantastic. see, the thing is, look, hear what you're saying. look, i hear what you're saying. fox you're saying, fox i get what you're saying, but sorry . i fox i get what you're saying, but sorry. i just don't fox i get what you're saying, but sorry . i just don't know but i'm sorry. i just don't know if true. dr. rikki neave if that's true. dr. rikki neave you hear at you don't hear you at all. a rumour, rumour around rumour, a rumour goes around that teacher , dr. raqib, that a teacher, dr. raqib, a rumour around that a rumour goes around that a teacher has shown a picture of the prophet muhammad to somebody, gets beheaded. i mean, that's behaviour, is that's not normal behaviour, is it? a in a normal country? is it? in a in a normal country? is that not something that is worth pushing back on? >> no, absolutely. and i've made very clear, patrick, that in the uk, the principal terror threat continues to be presented by islamist extremism. but what we're talking about here is a case of how schools are
10:29 pm
governed, what kind of materials can be used in classrooms . and can be used in classrooms. and in the french context , it has in the french context, it has a militant , in in the french context, it has a militant, in my in the french context, it has a militant , in my view, militant militant, in my view, militant secular model , which militant, in my view, militant secular model, which is very difficult to reconcile with the existence of socially conservative religious minorities. so the french civil society has to have a very serious debate in terms of how it integrates its diverse communities . and one thing i communities. and one thing i would say, patrick, i think this should be a source of national pride that certainly compared to countries such as france, along with other european countries such the such as germany and the netherlands, the uk actually performs well when it comes performs very well when it comes to provision of to the provision of anti—discrimination protections to the provision of anttheiscrimination protections to the provision of antthe grounds tion protections to the provision of antthe grounds ofn protections to the provision of antthe grounds of race,tections on the grounds of race, ethnicity and religion and is a land of considerable religious freedoms . now, of course, those freedoms. now, of course, those freedoms. now, of course, those freedoms are not there to be exploited and taken advantage of, think we should take of, but i think we should take pride in the successes that we've of we've had in terms of integrating our diverse communities and do you think that there is any truth whatsoever to the idea that certain aspects of the muslim community don't really want to
10:30 pm
integrate, they want to impose their norms and values and religious views on whatever society it is they live in? >> well, i could give you examples of english defence league or the national front wanting to impose their ways on the rest of us. they're fringe groups from the non—muslim society , so every society will society, so every society will have their rotten apples. we don't brush all the communities because of their bad behaviour by far . if you because of their bad behaviour by far. if you were to look at france and if this is the example and survey was done and it was published in the university of life 2023 report recently of 1074 people who left france and moved into other countries in europe, and they were asked, two thirds of them reported that they moved because they were not able to practice their religion freely, and 70% said they moved because they were facing extreme racial discrimination in france. i'm very proud that in britain we don't have that. and we don't need to follow the french model because french model is creating
10:31 pm
a lot of apathy and employment discrimination , unrest. et discrimination, unrest. et cetera. what france needs to do is follow our model and say, okay, britain's got it right. how can we improve and not be secular fundamentalist as they have become known in the world? it's not getting anything anywhere and they're not getting anywhere and they're not getting any brownie points either. >> both you, >> okay. look, both of you, thank much. great thank you very, very much. great stuff enjoyed it. stuff that really enjoyed it. i think a lot people have think a lot of people have learnt a lot, myself included. that was dr. hasan that was dr. rakib hasan and ajmal masroor well . and we ajmal masroor as well. and we will be continuing this discussion in the inbox. vaiews@gbnews.uk get those views coming in. coming up though, i want your thoughts on this talked about ricky this much talked about ricky gervais joke that some people are calling his most disgusting ever don't miss that. i will play ever don't miss that. i will play you the clip in full. very shortly. but next in the most lively newspaper review that you will find anywhere on national television , we will rattle television, we will rattle through the best of tomorrow's front big front pages, share the big headunes front pages, share the big headlines , setting the news headlines, setting the news agenda, including a startling revelation harry and

10:35 pm
formally since july. >> you're listening to gb news radio . radio. >> i think it might be my favourite bit of the show now where we get to bring you tomorrow's news tonight in the most entertaining paper of view anywhere on the the very most entertaining paper of view anyvfront on the the very most entertaining paper of view anyvfront on the have the very most entertaining paper of view anyvfront on the have just] very most entertaining paper of view anyvfront on the have just been first front pages have just been delivered my press pack . so delivered for my press pack. so we go in with the metro. richie saves his bacon breakfast butties. do the trick. as rwanda flight rebels fail. dot, dot dot for now, let's go over to the independent sunak wins rwanda vote and lives to lose another day . there we go. relieved pm day. there we go. relieved pm avoids defeat of flagship deportation bill in critical commons showdown that bill obviously be happy with william hague has warned we may never win back power. there's a big picture story there of harry and
10:36 pm
meghan on the front there. charity in £500,000 loss hit by an £8.5 million drop in donations. big story that for all the wrong reasons for them the i sunak survives rwanda revolt to set up new year showdown with tory rebels. the theme here isn't it which is that we're kicking the can down the road somewhat. the guardian sunak avoids major rebellion over rwanda deportation bill for now . yet very much a theme here, now. yet very much a theme here, isn't there? israel losing support over gaza bombing, says joe biden. the daily mail sunak sees off the tory rwanda rebels can you guess what comes next? for now , it's like it's all been for now, it's like it's all been written by the same person. these headlines, isn't it? rishi sunak off a tory mutiny, sunak had it off a tory mutiny, but worst is but obviously the worst is potentially still to come. so there we go. there is the telegraph as well . sunak faces telegraph as well. sunak faces down rebels. they say big down rwanda rebels. they say big picture rishi sunak with a union flag behind him . and there is flag behind him. and there is a story that am particularly story that i am particularly interested the interested though, in the telegraph which from telegraph, which is away from the rwanda discussion because we've been talking about this for a heck a lot and to pick
10:37 pm
for a heck of a lot and to pick through this, it also in the through this, it is also in the telegraph migrant dies on barge in suspected suicide and they are talking about the bibby stockholm and barges. a story that broke earlier today. i'm going get to now with my going to get to this now with my press pack. i've got former environment ranil environment secretary ranil jayawardena i've political jayawardena. i've got political commentator and commentator suzanne evans and specialist immigration lawyer ivan samson, and lay. yeah, randall, i'll start with you on this then. i mean, apparently there was a call at 6:44 am. this morning that one of the men on the bibby, stockholm, on board the bibby, stockholm, had essentially well, it says here killed himself . now, here killed himself. now, obviously, we're all waiting. official confirmation. i mean , official confirmation. i mean, does this change your views on the bibby stockholm barge, do you think? >> well , first of this is >> well, first of all, this is a great tragedy because the loss of any human life, particularly early suicide , as it early by suicide, as it suggested, is here, is just terrible . and you know who ever terrible. and you know who ever you are, you know, wherever people are from, i think we must all have that compassion . but i
10:38 pm
all have that compassion. but i do have to say that, you know, everyone who is on the bibby stockholm does get a medical assessment is looked at for emotional trauma. and so on. so i think the standards that there are that there are in this process are rob ust and actually this just underlines the human tragedy from not having properly controlled borders in the first place. you know, we need to have more of a deterrent to stop people crossing that very dangerous channel where sadly lives lost and to stop lives are lost and to stop people being housed in this country at all and actually to get the flights taking off. >> all right, suzanne, i mean, as can imagine, the noise is as you can imagine, the noise is now are this was an accident with tragedy waiting to happen. this shows you how this is awful. it shows you how evil people are for wanting a migrant barge in the first place. and we're not saying these are my views. i'm saying this is what's going on online. what do you think? >> yeah, it's very easy, isn't it, to jump conclusions that it, to jump to conclusions that
10:39 pm
it, to jump to conclusions that it that man it was the fact that this man was housed barge is what to was housed on a barge is what to led suicide? no idea led the suicide? we have no idea what was. we have what his background was. we have no he had mental no idea whether he had mental health problems we health problems before we arrived here. as says, arrived here. as randall says, a suicide, is always suicide, i think, is always particularly tragic. but for goodness sake, we just don't know the history here. and this again , is part of the problem again, is part of the problem when we've got people coming over we have no over in these boats, we have no idea background is . idea what their background is. and somehow we're expected and yet somehow we're expected to be to support them , pay to be able to support them, pay for them, look after them in a way that that's frankly, i think asking too much of the state. >> okay, ivan, i'm trying to remember from our previous conversations you're conversations where you're out on barge debate, you do on the barge debate, are you do you think it breaks all kind of human rights laws? >> well, no , i don't think it >> well, no, i don't think it does.i >> well, no, i don't think it does. i think it's not unsafe or breaks any health and safety regulations. but the point i wanted to make about people being locked up or having nothing to do, we all remember what it was like during the pandemic, how we all went nuts , pandemic, how we all went nuts, didn't we? we didn't have
10:40 pm
anything to do. and these people are not allowed to work. and i've campaigned for i've always campaigned for asylum seekers to have a normal life while their asylum applications are pending, which happensin applications are pending, which happens in america . so they can happens in america. so they can go and work have a normal go and work and have a normal life as best they can. these people are in those barges , can people are in those barges, can go and visit the town, have a walk around and come back again. there's else to do. so there's nothing else to do. so what we know what happened what we don't know what happened and reasons were all and why the reasons were all right, you kind of right, but i can see you kind of screwing face up little screwing your face up a little bit that. bit about that. >> go on. >>- >> go on. >> look, i » go — >> - look, i mean, >> well, look, i mean, i understand. where is understand. and where ivan is coming terms clearly coming from in terms of clearly being confined is something that challenges all. but the challenges us all. but the important thing is we don't create pull factors that encourage more people to come here in the first place, because encourage more people to come here inthatfirst place, because encourage more people to come here inthat just place, because encourage more people to come here inthat just exacerbates]se i think that just exacerbates the that we're seeing here. >> and also, we're again, putting people into our economy who paid very low wages and who are paid very low wages and taking jobs off people are taking jobs off people who are already i'm sorry , i already here. and i'm sorry, i have to disagree. >> mean , a narrow, narrow >> i mean, it's a narrow, narrow discussion it's a narrow, discussion and it's a narrow, narrow that talking narrow issue that we're talking about. i mean, the wider is about. i mean, the wider is
10:41 pm
about really, it's about the fact, but really, it's about this particular person. what him, he was what happened to him, why he was faced with that decision that he wanted to take life. wanted to take his life. there'll an inquiry and i'm there'll be an inquiry and i'm sure we'll find out. yeah, there will inquiry, definitely. will be an inquiry, definitely. >> something >> and look, there's something else here on the else going on here on the independent about harry and meghan's archwell charity, suffering plunge of suffering a donations plunge of nearly. it depends what you read, actually, because i mean some articles online saying there's £10 million recollections may vary not for the first time of course, when it comes to a story involving them, but on the of the them, but on the front of the independent, says the charity independent, it says the charity is £500,000 loss hit by an £8.5 million drop in donations. the duke and duchess of sussex appearin duke and duchess of sussex appear in a slick new video promoting the archewell foundation . even though, foundation. even though, susanna, i'll come to you on this. i mean, it just seems astonishing that people with their platform and their ability to network can can be sitting on top of a charity that's seen a £500,000 loss. >> not really me. that's probably what happens when you are quite popular in the public eye. and then suddenly you start
10:42 pm
making statements that annoy a lot of people and guess what? they don't give you money anymore . surprise, surprise, not. >> okay. all right. well, look, we'll return to this because we've got couple other we'll return to this because we've (and couple other we'll return to this because we've (and cfew.e other we'll return to this because we've (and cfew otheryther we'll return to this because we've (and cfew other viral stories and a few other viral clips want to get you as clips i want to get to you as well. fat cat, covid inquiry lawyers to cost lawyers are said to cost taxpayers grand day on taxpayers 750 grand a day on barristers and solicitors. find out one of them in out why one of them in particular been nominated in particular has been nominated in tonight's britain and tonight's greatest britain and union. jack has been nominated for greatest britain. coming up, ricky gervais didn't become one of the richest comedians in the world by playing it so you world by playing it safe. so you will want to miss one of his will not want to miss one of his most controversial jokes ever that has caused quite a stir. that's coming up in my press pack. when i ask, is anything off limits? cannatech
