11:07 pm
two ways to read it are that it is theatre, whether that is just theatre, whether that they have no real expectation that it will happen. >> well, i don't know. i mean, the is will planes the question is will any planes be sent before he get be sent before will he get through lords ? through the lords? >> that mean. >> is that i mean. >> is that i mean. >> that's, that's there's >> well that's, that's there's so many things and then the so many things and then but the real they through is real reason they got through is because everybody, because people, everybody, the different want to put different factions want to put their different factions want to put the so that's really where it's >> so that's really where it's going to. going to get to. >> oh, labour are to play >> oh, labour are going to play politics, saying, politics, they're saying, and then and not do then pull, pull back and not do any vote. >> so idea is that that it >> so the idea is that that it all falls the tory party all falls on the tory party then. and that's they then. yes. and that's where they get are really get the schisms that are really going get the schisms that are really gohthe get the schisms that are really goiithe other point is sunak has >> the other point is sunak has got stage by appealing got to this stage by appealing to families and telling to the five families and telling them, going be them, look, it's going to be even harsher, worry. even harsher, don't worry. but then that's going to alienate then that's going to alienate the nation so it may the one nation side. so it may not them. so it is not even get past them. so it is still bit of a disaster. it's still a bit of a disaster. it's not as much of a disaster as we thought. by the way, just on the bill heard bill itself, i heard an interesting earlier. many interesting point earlier. many migrants don't even know about this work as a this bill, so it won't work as a deterrent they just go deterrent because they just go on they have no idea. on facebook. they have no idea. >> well, the flights to rwanda will like low over

11:12 pm
day, what they day, america can say what they want. america , israel want. but america, israel is going what it feels it going to do what it feels it needs be safe . yeah, and needs to be safe. yeah, and that's the reality of it. >> anything there? well, yeah. >> anything there? well, yeah. >> it's obviously >> i mean, it's obviously the left because left wing aspect because he's saying is the saying that netanyahu is the most needs to most conservative and needs to change government. there's most conservative and needs to chanthis government. there's most conservative and needs to chanthis sort>vernment. there's most conservative and needs to chanthis sort>ve isolationism,3's also this sort of isolationism, but in but it's really just in competence. saying, we competence. he's saying, oh, we messed up afghanistan with trump. an trump. you felt he was an isolationist, but he felt it was deliberate, whereas biden, i feel, everything deliberate, whereas biden, i feel maybe everything deliberate, whereas biden, i feelmaybe he everything deliberate, whereas biden, i feelmaybe he seemsything deliberate, whereas biden, i feelmaybe he seems toringalmost but maybe he seems to be almost warning them that he's not going to much they to help them as much as they might think. and also might think. and i wonder also if much if they're just in too much debt, it's that i don't know. >> i think they are i mean, to be some sort of credence to biden. i think he is navigating unusual territory. think lot biden. i think he is navigating unpeoplearritory. think lot biden. i think he is navigating unpeople feel�*ry. think lot biden. i think he is navigating unpeople feel that think lot biden. i think he is navigating unpeople feel that both lot biden. i think he is navigating unpeople feel that both the )t of people feel that both the russia—ukraine conflict and this the mean , obviously, it's a the i mean, obviously, it's a flare of a very long running flare up of a very long running conflict in the middle east. but there is this kind of switch from the sort of single, you know , unipolar superpower know, unipolar superpower scenario to the sort of multi polar world that we're moving into that that china's
11:13 pm
preferences , the india's preferences, the india's preferences, the india's preferences and so on are starting to take and that this is changing the geopolitical it used to be the case basically, if america decided to back israel, nobody else really had any kind of say in what would you know. that's not quite what we're seeing now. >> so, no, there's a lot of other factors in play. but and the larger issue in the middle east is it's really between iran and saudi arabia and saudi arabia if israel arabia are seeing if israel wavers yes and they and wavers here. yes and they and the local the other arab countries don't want hamas. no, they don't want them. they wouldn't want them in their own country. and they don't want them for israel. they rather like miscalculation by like a massive miscalculation by hamas on that front, isn't it? >> anyway, finish off with >> anyway, let's finish off with the good the star, nick. and the good news of struggling news for those of us struggling to keep warm. to keep our plates warm. >> yes, they think it's all comb over they that over and they claim that a donald trump haircut is bad, but it's really to trump it's really not fair to trump because really a comb because it's not really a comb over with trump. it's a sort of comb together from all four poles. brings it poles. you know, he brings it all a of all together in a kind of miracle system. unfair miracle system. so it's unfair to call it that. but to just call it that. but i don't think a similar
11:14 pm
don't think you'd get a similar article women by the way. article about women by the way. it's the the whole tone it's just the way the whole tone of the piece. but they're saying that comb over being that the comb over is being adopted of men. they adopted by 18% of men. they say that have to animal that 3% have resorted to animal hair or wearing hair growth products or wearing loud to divert people's loud clothes to divert people's attention head . okay attention from their head. okay >> i've literally done everything they said in this article. >> didn't want to say. i wonder why. >> picking up the aroma of boar meat. that is the first section done coming up. pipsqueak's narrow squeak. a new of narrow squeak. a new kind of stockholm syndrome and harvard doubled down on gay wrongs . we doubled down on gay wrongs. we will see you very

11:18 pm
stockholm bars to close after apparent suicide of resident is apparent suicide of resident is a very sad story and no one knows exactly why. but of course, people are just projecting their particular politics onto it . someone from politics onto it. someone from freedom from torture said this is another reminder that the government's punitive anti refugee policies are not only cruel, cost lives. but cruel, but they cost lives. but we really don't know details we really don't know any details about sad, about it. obviously. it's sad, you that it proves you could say that it proves that there isn't this amazing life that some of the migrants want. know, want. so perhaps it's, you know, another they perhaps another reason they perhaps shouldn't come over. or you could say male is could just say male suicide is incredibly common. and it's interesting that the guardian now cares male suicide now cares about male suicide when but they when it's immigrants. but they don't in other contexts , don't care if in other contexts, a couple of the people mentioned that norcott, that our friend geoff norcott, of on another tv of course, was on another tv channel and got into a huge row which eventually had repercussions which worked their way back to news exactly way back to gb news exactly why people attempted to downplay male . but now left male suicide. but now the left cares about it again. >> so i a bit cynical. very >> so i am a bit cynical. very same woman, the one who who geoff to on that show, same woman, the one who who geoknow, to on that show, same woman, the one who who geoknow, who to on that show, same woman, the one who who geoknow, who appearedt show, same woman, the one who who geoknow, who appeared to 10w, same woman, the one who who geoknow, who appeared to be ', you know, who appeared to be indifferent said, indifferent to it and said, yeah, do all the yeah, but women do all the washing up or something. she was
11:19 pm
on saying how on on twitter today saying how terrible and on on twitter today saying how terriiita and on on twitter today saying how terriiit demonstrated and on on twitter today saying how terriiit demonstrated that|nd on on twitter today saying how terriiit demonstrated that the how it demonstrated that the government to, you know, government need to, you know, can themselves? can they not hear themselves? i know extraordinary. know it's extraordinary. and also distasteful also it is rather distasteful until why a man until you know why a man committed may have committed suicide, he may have committed suicide, he may have committed he committed suicide because he just the just could not shake the very things that he's been running from. i don't know where he from. i don't even know where he came but there's no it's came from, but there's no it's unlikely to have been without scars. it fi- fi— ii! doesn't say that it's >> it also doesn't say that it's apparent suicide . so they're apparent suicide. so they're saying he died suddenly . basically. >> huge amount of speculation , a >> huge amount of speculation, a huge speculation to huge amount of speculation to this point. >> i'm sure it's not there. everyone was saying, oh, this is actually going to be okay. they're complaining which they're complaining a lot, which is enough. but supposedly is fair enough. but supposedly getting off boat is getting on and off the boat is quite security . quite tricky. the security. yeah.i quite tricky. the security. yeah. i mean, it's meant to act as a deterrent, this is as a deterrent, but this is really the government's another way pointing and saying, really the government's another way if pointing and saying, really the government's another way if you pointing and saying, really the government's another way if you cometing and saying, really the government's another way if you come overand saying, really the government's another way if you come over here, lying, look, if you come over here, we're going to put you on a big barge. >> there might be a suggestion that the warders or whatever they called, perhaps they are called, are perhaps a little would little more brusque than would be that these be ideal, given that these people actually people are not actually prisoners not prisoners or at least not criminals. suppose perhaps criminals. and i suppose perhaps you into certain you can fall into a certain kind of social of those various social experiments about
11:20 pm
experiments aren't there, about how get treated when in how people get treated when in these situations. these sort of situations. anyway, i think the only thing you dois anyway, i think the only thing you do is express sympathy you can do is express sympathy really let's have really at this point. let's have a at the times now. josh a look at the times now. josh another is proving a divisive another uk is proving a divisive proposition to the eu . proposition to the eu. >> yes, security fears leave eu citizens divided over ukraine. membership and this is a poll of different eu countries. and yes , different eu countries. and yes, surprising. i'm sort of a little bit well, i don't know, surprised or not, but it seems actually quite balanced. we're talking sort of 52. yeah, the that that kind of stuff. >> there's kind of 52% are against. then are some against. but then there are some that are really very firmly against. but the interesting thing goes against thing is that it goes against the the leadership the grain of the leadership because leadership all the grain of the leadership bec except leadership all the grain of the leadership bec except forzadership all the grain of the leadership bec except for viktor1ip all the grain of the leadership bec except for viktor orban all the grain of the leadership bec except for viktor orban . ll pro except for viktor orban. yes. and i know leo was annoyed about this and thought that viktor orban was was in the wrong on this one, which was interesting. but i mean, it's not quite the same as nato in that in the respect that it doesn't present quite such a much of a threat.
11:21 pm
doesn't present quite such a mu yeah,a threat. doesn't present quite such a mu yeah, it'sreat. doesn't present quite such a mu yeah, it's not. doesn't present quite such a mu yeah, it's not like we're all >> yeah, it's not like we're all going to go to. >> suddenly puts us all >> yeah. it suddenly puts us all well i say elsewhere not in it anymore anyway. and eu anymore anyway. and in eu terms it economically they're probably less of a basket case than some of the other countries they've let in in the last ten years. i would say if they can get back to normality after the war, that's huge that's going to be huge investment coming. >> dangerous >> yeah, it's not as dangerous as of people as nato, but 45% of people surveyed say they it surveyed did say they felt it presented security threat . presented a security threat. yeah, so it is a security threat and france and austria and germany, france and austria were strongly against. if were very strongly against. if you look at the graph, were you look at the graph, they were the strongly the most strongly against it. so, i think mean, so, yeah, i think it's i mean, the eu is already a failing project. last thing want project. the last thing you want to do is expand, especially into a highly contested a sort of highly contested region. say. region. i would say. >> think it's mean, >> do you think it's i mean, obviously with some countries like main concern like turkey, the main concern would freedom of would be that the freedom of movement, the freedom of movement, but the freedom of movement, but the freedom of movement ukrainians has been movement of ukrainians has been fairly movement of ukrainians has been fair| refugee movement of ukrainians has been fair|refugee basis movement of ukrainians has been fair| refugee basis anyway . the refugee basis anyway. >> so there hasn't been, >> so and there hasn't been, i believe, massive cultural issues with with ukrainians in these different countries. >> there's a number i know i've come to brighton, outperform come to brighton, a outperform the there extraordinarily
11:22 pm
the locals there extraordinarily well. ongoing row over the well. so ongoing row over the ivy league equivocation . and ivy league equivocation. and nick, harvard's president appears to be weathering the storm. >> yeah, for now. shockingly so. harvard board backs claudine grey as the right leader to help our community heal, but admits her congress her disastrous congress testimony to give an testimony failed to give an unequivocal condemnation of anti—semitism . um, which you can anti—semitism. um, which you can say mean, so say that again. i mean, so they've acknowledged that at least seen that least so we've seen that elizabeth , the elizabeth mcgill already, the president has already president of penn, has already resigned they resigned over this after they lost funding lost 100 million in funding after testimony after her shocking testimony where essentially smirked where she essentially smirked about jewish about the notion of jewish genocide and people talking about that on campus and advocating dependent. advocating it context dependent. they context they said it was context dependent, which was absurd. and they speech they pretended to be free speech absolutist. sudden , absolutist. all of a sudden, which would been at least which would have been at least been obviously been an argument. but obviously they're they they're not obviously they wouldn't in many other contexts. >> that was exactly the point for it was the inconsistency for me. it was the inconsistency really. the tone really. i mean, also the tone and were and the smirking were reprehensible, really, reprehensible, but really, if they they demonstrate they if they if they demonstrate a commitment to free speech over the last ten years, that would be one thing. >> to me , to me, what's
11:23 pm
>> yeah. to me, to me, what's happened andrew happened here and andrew sullivan article on sullivan wrote a good article on this up which was this and backing me up which was good, literally, the good, not literally, but at the same point, which is that they've this white they've been doing this to white people it's the oppressor saying it's the oppressor versus the and they've been the oppressed and they've been getting away it. and now getting away with it. and now jewish have fallen into jewish people have fallen into the for them the oppressor category for them because calling them white. basically calling them white. and they can feel. and so now they can say feel. they this, they can say things like this, and people see how and now people see how disgusting it is and harvard here this here are doubling down on this poisonous woke ideology that let's you make statements like this. there was this. and even cnn, there was a long piece by fareed zakaria, who said that it's time for universities put away the universities to put away the politics get back to actual politics and get back to actual learning. how about that? so even enough of this i >> -- >> but whereas did you see ben shapiro came out all guns shapiro really came out all guns firing at academia ? you know, firing at academia? you know, we're going to have to root out this rot. >> but she was hired specifically to, as a diversity hire to implement these policies. and also, there's evidence that she was hired that they weren't opening up to any non diverse candidates . the fact non diverse candidates. the fact that they're saying here they're committed now to redoubling the university's fight against
11:24 pm
anti—semitism is the most ridiculous statement i've heard . ridiculous statement i've heard. from zero. absolutely. here and i think it's disgraceful , i think it's disgraceful, disgraceful that she's managed to keep her job. she said just to keep herjob. she said just as bad as and she's more of a hypocrite than the others because harvard has got like more most extreme reputation now where things like being fascist. and i suppose he is like literal violence, but calling for actual violence, but calling for actual violence against jews is suddenly okay. >> and her entire academic career , which is also being career, which is also being called into question apparently accusations of plagiarism on her doctorate, the thesis and so on, i think has always been about race studies. it's about african american studies. it's about voter turnout by and so on. voter turnout by race and so on. so, i mean, this is should be her. not something her. it's not like something she's blundered into and doesn't understand, shows the understand, but it shows the inconsistencies within those ideologies . ideologies. >> and i want to say one final thing to actually thing is this going to actually affect harvard ? because, yes, affect harvard? because, yes, they some funding and they might lose some funding and prestige, people still prestige, but are people still going want to go to harvard? going to want to go to harvard? will it make a difference to the
11:25 pm

11:26 pm
you've said words you've you've sort of said words just them do signs just to see them do the signs for you have done that. for it. you must have done that. >> oh, is that what it was? >> oh, is that what it was? >> so that it. so the head >> so that was it. so the head of itv. yeah the tv. kevin lygo, the basically said , oh, the boss, basically said, oh, i don't i don't know the word. i don't i don't know the word. i do know one sign. if you say nigel farage or whatever. so he was basically like that was the gist it. so it wasn't really gist of it. so it wasn't really vitriolic and it was like it was a joke at nigel's expense. and also was a gag about he's also there was a gag about he's going from going to come home from australia in a dinghy. yeah, not particularly nice. certainly as he's featuring on his on his channel time. but nigel's channel at the time. but nigel's come out the jungle and being come out of the jungle and being like, with me now. like, don't mess with me now. he's nigel's right. like in terms of the last person who tangled with him, did come to a natwest. yeah to a somewhat of a sticky end in terms of losing her job. sticky end in terms of losing herjob.i sticky end in terms of losing herjob. i don't see this is not quite this is not the same. this is same. >> there was an odd thing though, wasn't there? i felt i didn't watch it much, but i did feel like anton deck looked as if they weren't very comfortable with there with having farage on there and they wanted to distance
11:27 pm
themselves it. and i made themselves from it. and i made some at the expense gb some jokes at the expense of gb news, enough news, which were big enough to take. it was it take. but, you know, it was it was a slightly sort of uneasy jocularity . jocularity. >> uh, yeah, they feel they have to distance themselves, which is what he's doing here. he's being rude about farage. he's worried he's him, but really, he's helped him, but really, farage helped himself being farage helped himself by being affable and all those things. likeable and all those things. and are worried. and so. but itv are worried. i think they've done what jemmy fallon was accused doing fallon was accused of doing when he trump's hair, when he humanised trump's hair, when he humanised trump's hair, when he ruffled trump's and was he ruffled trump's hair and was accused humanising accused of humanising trump. they this big apology accused of humanising trump. theylater this big apology accused of humanising trump. theylater aboutthis big apology accused of humanising trump. theylater about it.; big apology accused of humanising trump. theylater about it.; bi absurd. jv tour later about it. so absurd. that's they've with that's what they've done with they they've with they fear they've done with farage and it's farage has smashed come out really smashed it. he's come out really well. the country. >> and it wasn't just because he was also up with was affable. he also put up with the with a certain the discomfort with a certain degree of stoicism. i think that's point at that's that's often the point at which people see. yeah. and also, that ridicule also, of course, that ridicule this youtuber and it's quite interesting to see the sort of clash of intellect at that point. >> yeah. i mean, i think the whole series was a bit of a damp squid. i'd be curious to see that squid squib.
11:28 pm
>> i thought he was making a pun on bugs and it was very on all the bugs and it was very good. yes, but what i didn't think was that this idea that they sort of held back on edited him out. >> i don't know to what level that might you'd have to be watching it a lot to sort of be able to say with any kind of that's what he feels that they did know what truth is did. i don't know what truth is that at the halfway point that we're at the halfway point now. >> stay mm- mm— % us. coming up, we >> stay with us. coming up, we have saying sorry, have have zara saying sorry, we have musk and the who musk under fire. and the man who broke 1983. we'll broke david bowie in 1983. we'll see you in

formally since july. >> you're listening to gb news radio . radio. >> welcome back to headlines . as >> welcome back to headlines. as for the back nine metro now nick and a high street brand appears to have stumbled into, let's just say, a controversy . just say, a controversy. >> yeah. zara pulls ad campaign accused of mocking images from gaza and they apparently regret the misunderstood ending, as you can imagine. so these were these strange models strange photos of models standing around in rubble. and
11:32 pm
there things like that. there you go. things like that. and can see that one on the and you can see that one on the ground seems particularly distasteful. can kind distasteful. so you can kind of see caused see why that's caused some uproar. it's like uproar. and it's kind of like balenciaga that absurd balenciaga with that absurd campaign. it was appalling campaign. it was appalling campaign that was definitely that deliberate . that was deliberate. >> that was really weird. and yeah , if you let me get to the yeah, if you let me get to the story, maybe i'll explain. >> yeah, that was particularly bad. doesn't was bad. this doesn't this i was about you. is it the about to say you. is it the fashion industry trying to get pubuchy fashion industry trying to get publicity atrocities or is publicity from atrocities or is it ignorance from it just genuine ignorance from the industry? the fashion industry? both seem highly because they're highly possible because they're completely highly possible because they're coni)letely highly possible because they're coni do ely what mean, but >> i do know what you mean, but i i read their thing is i think i read their thing is the ambience they're to the ambience they're trying to evoke like artist studio. the ambience they're trying to evokl like artist studio. the ambience they're trying to evokl thinke artist studio. the ambience they're trying to evokl think that artist studio. the ambience they're trying to evokl think that istist studio. the ambience they're trying to evokl think that is totallyiio. and i think that is totally plausible. i think that's what you're looking at. absolutely. >> connection you're looking at. absolutely. >:absolutely connection you're looking at. absolutely. >:absolutely ridiculousnnection you're looking at. absolutely. >:absolutely ridiculous .�*|ection is absolutely ridiculous. utterly bad faith, which is, of course, exactly what pro—palestinian campaigners are all about. they're like, this is the disgusting the most disgusting thing. like like anybody is going to be actually doing a fashion campaign the civil campaign based on the civil deaths in gaza. i mean, that is so zara like i mean, it's so stupid and as i said, totally
11:33 pm
bad faith. you've got some guy saying bilal hassan saying, i work with brands day in and out and whatever this this is the fact this went through the proof like it's mate brands like it's like mate brands don't work with bilal hassan or whatever because this is like ridiculous thing. >> the only thing could >> the only thing you could throw is at this throw at them is at this particular moment, you know , particular moment, you know, perhaps should have some perhaps you should have some kind sensitivity reader, but kind of sensitivity reader, but for the fashion industry or whatever, would just go whatever, it would just go actually could be mistaken actually that could be mistaken for shrouds that for the kind of shrouds that bodies don't bodies are. i don't know. i mean, it absurd. mean, maybe it is absurd. >> should set of >> people should set of intention, which rarely do intention, which they rarely do anymore. and surely, if anything, likely anything, you'd be more likely to a kind of pro—palestine thing in woke which in the kind of woke world which fashion although fashion presumably is, although they've actually been accused of anti—semitism past anti—semitism twice in the past for similar mishaps, one involving star and involving the sheriff's star and things like that. >> opportunism, it? >> it's opportunism, isn't it? and this is like the world we live you things live in now. you know, things will pounce and, you know, will just pounce and, you know, all kind movements and all kind of movements and charities any kind of not charities and any kind of not necessarily war, it could easily be, you know, i don't know, disabled teams disabled football teams or something, but the something, you know, but the fact they've pulled it, fact they they've pulled it, they've . they've apologised. >> they're backing
11:34 pm
>> you know, they're backing down calling down to people who are calling for who think it's for genocide, who think it's totally fine to back a terrorist organisation . organisation. >> oh, more controversy now . >> oh, more controversy now. josh is one of the last remaining banished accounts, is back on twitter following a decisive poll . decisive poll. >> yeah, this is a tough one. elon musk is branded a sociopath by the father of murdered sandy hook victim after he welcomed conspiracy theory alex jones back to x despite previously saying he had no mercy for anyone who would use the deaths of children for gain. so alex jones was sued. i think it was like nearly for £965 million for defamation on to read here and knowing before what he put those families through . families through. >> just so i understand this, that's not what he was thrown off twitter for. incidentally no.and off twitter for. incidentally no. and that come much earlier in his career. now it's very difficult to get back to the origins find any kind of origins to find any kind of transcript anything. he transcript of anything. he actually said about that. and i'm disputing i'm not disputing because obviously in obviously it's been tried in a court but you know, i've court of law. but you know, i've seen enough stuff that's kind of been over you
11:35 pm
been mangled over the, you know, through media. through the media. he was actually thrown off twitter for harassing a guy on cnn, just like darcy. yeah. which was so minor. it was a really ridiculous transgression. and that's what he was thrown off twitter for. i do think that's significant . and, you know, significant. and, you know, because if you're overturning that verdict, twitter had been fine with the sandy hook thing for about 8 or 9 years. yeah, it was of twitter was an absurd form of twitter kind of regime decision. >> confusion came >> but the confusion came because even in the musk era, musk said wouldn't reinstate musk said he wouldn't reinstate it the emotional it because the emotional argument hook. but argument about sandy hook. but now he's and partly because musk himself lost a child, right? himself had lost a child, right? >> yes. >> yes. >> and the emotional but >> yeah. and the emotional but but thought about but but now he's thought about it done this poll it more and he's done this poll 70% wanted him back on. it's 70% wanted him back on. so it's democratic. 70% wanted him back on. so it's dercommitment to free speech. his commitment to free speech. he decided he's decided despite his feelings, alex he decided he's decided despite his shouldfeelings, alex he decided he's decided despite his should be .ings, alex he decided he's decided despite his should be back alex he decided he's decided despite his should be back alethere. jones should be back on there. and completely he's and i completely think he's right, dictators right, especially when dictators are so you know, why are on there. so you know, why not have total free speech? that's what they for x and that's what they want for x and even said and i thought it even musk said and i thought it was quite honourable. this will be financial hit but be a financial hit for x, but it's it's free it's worth it because it's free speech. they had the
11:36 pm
speech. and then they had the twitter space or x space where speech. and then they had the vaas' space or x space where speech. and then they had the vaas' spa(musk, space where speech. and then they had the vaas' spa(musk, vivek where it was elon musk, vivek ramaswamy, and andrew ramaswamy, alex jones and andrew tate. and that's just so hilarious it hilarious that it's worth it just this is your fantasy. >> i'm going to wake you up from in a minute. >> i understand the sandy hook parents of course, will like parents of course, will not like alex jones, obviously. and that's an emotional argument. i of course understand that. but from a free speech perspective, of course understand that. but frora a free speech perspective, of course understand that. but frora a freething. h perspective, it's a good thing. >> would say all the >> and i would say of all the issues of alex jones has issues of which alex jones has been of almost been kind of almost performatively kind of performatively absurdly kind of overblown with his rhetoric and so is the one on so on, that is the only one on which vast majority which i think the vast majority of no, that's of people would say, no, that's wrong. think it's wrong. even then, i think it's not illegitimate to say, is there the possibility that there is campaign , a play to try is some campaign, a play to try and, you know, take your guns away so many of the things he's talked about have turned out to be extraordinarily prescient , be extraordinarily prescient, you know? >> yeah. and i would say he's also literally also apologised literally hundreds the other hundreds of times. and the other thing musk said it's global thing musk said is it's a global town square. and the other thing he is they have he pointed out is they now have community nodes. why not have community nodes. so why not have alex if he's alex jones on there? and if he's wrong, communicate wrong, you can communicate community couldn't community note him you couldn't about they about the frogs because they really were being turned down.
11:37 pm
about the frogs because they realon vere being turned down. about the frogs because they realon othereing turned down. about the frogs because they realon other thingsirned down. correct. >> exactly so so 2 correct. >> exactly so okay so 2 to 1 on that, maybe two and a half. nick the guardian now, nile rodgers that, maybe two and a half. nick the gltoiian now, nile rodgers that, maybe two and a half. nick the glto be| now, nile rodgers that, maybe two and a half. nick the glto be under nile rodgers that, maybe two and a half. nick the glto be under the rodgers that, maybe two and a half. nick the glto be under the impression seems to be under the impression that collaboration with that his collaboration with david saved his career. >> yeah, it's convenient. yeah. david failed in david bowie would have failed in today's music today's cut throat music industry, rodgers and industry, says nile rodgers and there's something in it. he's saying fail to saying that labels would fail to nurture and nurture talent now and they focus on profit because had focus on profit because he had a run albums in the 70s that run of albums in the 70s that weren't popular. then he weren't as popular. and then he had and this was had let's dance, and this was the commons select the house of commons select committee. he was speaking in front of. so yeah, i'm sure there is something in that. also, dressed also, he also dressed up as a nazi, which probably get nazi, which probably would get him cancelled these days, you know, so some extraordinarily cancellable know, so some extraordinarily cancellababsolutely. was >> yeah, absolutely. but i was a little so nile little bit confused. so nile rodgers not after not rodgers was saying not after not the kind 2 or 3 albums that the kind of 2 or 3 albums that bowie before paid with bowie did before he paid with ziggy stardust. but actually after ziggy stardust, more like low and heroes. that stuff . low and heroes. that stuff. >> basically there is >> yeah, basically there is truth in that. the record companies not really investing, they're basically signing companies who are signing bands who already have somewhat of a following already following and they've already done so what do done the hard work. so what do you a record company for?
11:38 pm
you need? a record company for? to david bowie wouldn't to say that david bowie wouldn't make ridiculous. make it is ridiculous. david bowie bowie bowie was a genius. david bowie would have made whatever would have made it. whatever happened and also he was such a forward thinker. he called the internet. have worked internet. he would have worked that before anybody else. all the myspace, whatever. the myspace, all the whatever. so of he would made so of course he would have made it. yeah. >> great example, but >> not a great example, but there are bands certainly who took or well, springsteen took 2 or 3. well, springsteen famously was his third, you famously was on his third, you know , third strike and he would know, third strike and he would have been out with born to run, but it pulled through . his first but it pulled through. his first two albums had lost money. yeah i mean, kind thing. two albums had lost money. yeah i meaknow. kind thing. don't know. >> there is very valid point. >> there is a very valid point. sorry streaming. 1977, sorry about streaming. in 1977, roger's first chic roger's first the first chic album, a million copies and album, sold a million copies and he 100 grand. snoop he received 100 grand. snoop dogg got 45,000 for a dogg just got 45,000 for a billion streams. it does to billion streams. it does seem to be the does seem to be off be the ratio does seem to be off billion streams. >> that's equivalent to a >> so that's equivalent to a thousand more thousand listens, which is more than would play than most people would play a chic right. i'm just chic album. right. i'm just trying to match it so you've trying to match it up. so you've got a thousand sales do live or 1 billion or 1 got a thousand sales do live or 1 billion or1 billion listens, as it were, which is like obviously way more people have listened to snoop dogg than than
11:39 pm
the people who own chic . the people who own chic. >> yeah, he just got it for christmas. yeah yeah. >> that is insane, isn't it? i know in the record know some people in the record industry say that the record companies quite companies are actually quite happy with their deal with spotify, somebody. spotify, so somebody. >> what this >> well, that's what this article everybody's article is saying. everybody's doing from the doing all right. apart from the artist. , it's artist. the artist, it's edinburgh over again. artist. the artist, it's ediimuslim over again. artist. the artist, it's ediimuslim pupils again. artist. the artist, it's ediimuslim pupils offended by >> muslim pupils offended by naked diana now josh although at least they weren't transformed into hind and devoured by into a hind and devoured by their hounds . their own hounds. >> as you have to know the stuff . okay. i know the painting. very good. muslim pupils offended by renaissance painting offended by renaissance painting of nudes to be disciplined. so this is a school in france. there it is. there's the picture there. >> and actaeon with the red cape. and diana at her toilet. well, this is it. >> and a french teacher showed this. and then a bunch of muslim students kicked off a big hoo ha, some of them. then alleged that the teacher had made racist comments during the class discussion . that has now been discussion. that has now been denied . and until they were denied. and until they were making falsehoods . now we've making falsehoods. now we've seen in in france to teachers
11:40 pm

11:51 pm
really. yeah. but arguably, and you do writing and you do writing and stuff, you'll know that the hardest part would be the blank page . yeah. now having the blank page. yeah. now having ai the blank page. yeah. now having al to, to, to do that part of it, once it gets down to editing, that's a thousand times easier and even pleasurable . easier and even pleasurable. >> in some ways it's easier and it's also arguably a place where you demonstrate your particular skill so i think, for skill set. so i think, for instance world of work, instance, in the world of work, for instance people write for instance, people who write maybe manuals or maybe technical manuals or marketing materials like a brochure for a new car or whatever , actually it's going to whatever, actually it's going to be quite a good thing if you get ai write like 80% the al to write like the 80% of the text you get paid for. text and then you get paid for. sure. the guy exactly , yeah, the sure. the guy exactly, yeah, the script doctor. >> this bothers me because >> but this bothers me because you're essentially becoming a teacher just you're essentially becoming a teacher its just you're essentially becoming a teacher its work just you're essentially becoming a teacher its work. just you're essentially becoming a teacher its work . that's what i marking its work. that's what i didn't like. it's doing hard didn't like. it's doing the hard bit for you as you say, and then you're sort of marking it. so that's i don't like. that's what i don't like. >> think probably >> well, i think it's probably pragmatic anyway. nick the times, our story. times, this is our last story. we'll have time for back to clothe this clothe clothes marketing. this one yeah clothe clothes marketing. this one next yeah clothe clothes marketing. this one next drops yeah clothe clothes marketing. this one next drops offensive yeah clothe clothes marketing. this one next drops offensive ineah >> next drops offensive in inverted commas. pan am jumper

11:56 pm
11:57 pm
11:58 pm
gb news radio show . gb news radio show. >> welcome back, my friends, to gb news. yes, it's farage. i'm richard tice. and this is an extraordinary evening . we've extraordinary evening. we've just had the labour amendment has been rejected by the mps in the house of commons. interestingly, there are 608 votes were cast in that first amendment. so you can see that the vast, vast bulk of the 650 mps are in the house of commons. there may be a few more that that abstained in that first amendment. so fascinating what happens as we prepare for
11:59 pm
happens now as we prepare for the crucial the absolute crux vote there. my previous two guests before the break, matthew and paul, they both think that it will just pass . yes, i think it will just pass. yes, i think it will just pass. yes, i think it will just pass. yes, i think it will just pass as well. i think there's a lot of politicking, but we could all be wrong. it's very, very close indeed. and i'm delighted. now to be joined for as first outing on gb news in the studio, dr. omar hammoud gallego, who you are currently a fellow of political science and public policy at the london school of economics. welcome to gb news. thank you. so through this process, i mean, there's all the sort of the technical shenanigans in the house of commons. and actually, i think to most people at home, this is almost like a i mean, it's chaotic, it's mad. what does it all mean if we just take a step back for a second? what are we really talking about here? we've got a significant amount of illegal immigration coming into the united kingdom , and the united kingdom, and everybody knows that. that's got to stop . the prime minister has
12:00 am
to stop. the prime minister has set his stall on stopping the boats, which is the bulk of illegal immigration. and he said this will stop the boats. but actually we've had two previous bills that they said would stop illegal immigration and essentially this chaos indicates people a lot of people don't think it will. where do we go from here? i mean, the united kingdom is in is in a pretty bad place in terms of trying to stop that basic objective. yes >> so, first of all, thanks for having me . i think the first having me. i think the first takeaway is even if this bill passes parliament, it's not going to work and it's not going to work for, let's say, many two reasons. first, because even if we manage to send people to rwanda, as the government is claiming it will be able to do, it would be just very few. what does mean? means that does this mean? it means that probably people , even if probably many people, even if this happens , many people will
