gb news day. >> good evening and welcome to patrick christys tonight there is no non—diverse hire at aviva without it being signed off by me and the chief people officer. >> white people are increasingly victims of racism . whites need victims of racism. whites need not apply. white people banned from christmas parties are the woke diversity crowds. the actual racists here and said what on earth has happened to gain a lord mystery surrounds her disappearance. here are the final moments where she was caught on cctv. i speak to a top cop about what could have happened and how the police

search is going. so far with another by—election potentially looming, this time in the blackpool area. should sunak bite the bullet and just call a general election? we have a head to head on that shortly . and to head on that shortly. and finally, prince harry actually admits it up . admits it up. >> oh, that's how he waleses job. >> well, not many people would disagree with that on my panel tonight i have got top columnist alison pearson. i've got the lovable lord shaun bailey and the sensational stella kidu. this is patrick christys tonight. let's do this. email me now. gb views. gb news. com get in touch. is it okay? okay to discriminate again ? okay to discriminate again? white people? i'll see you after the headlines .

the headlines. >> patrick. thank you . well, >> patrick. thank you. well, let's start with that news that patrick was talking about there. why the police are saying there are some now indications why a woman in norwich may have left her work earlier than usual on the day she went missing. gaynon the day she went missing. gaynor, lord was last spotted on cctv tv cameras on friday afternoon . june and cctv tv cameras on friday afternoon .june and norfolk afternoon. june and norfolk constabulary say it is likely the 55 year old may have entered a nearby river. the force says specialist divers are working now in extraordinarily difficult conditions, and they think it's going to take a couple of days or even longer to complete their investigation . investigation. >> so there's a number of lines of inquiry that we are pursuing, but at the moment, everything that we know is pointing to a high probability that gaynor went into water and that went into the water and that that would be from the cctv, from very limited witnesses from the very limited witnesses that got available to us that we've got available to us at the and other at the moment. and other lines of pursuing of query that we're pursuing about gaynor's behaviour in the lead to her disappearance. so lead up to her disappearance. so at moment, the river is a

at the moment, the river is a really key factor for us now. it's not to other it's not to say that other specialist police teams aren't working on other lines of inquiry, but inquiry, because they are, but at you're seeing that at the moment you're seeing that intensive effort around the searching and searching of the water and the parks and some of the parks around and some of the other this area . other land around this area. >> meanwhile, a missing british boy who's believed to have disappeared six years ago has been found in france . greater been found in france. greater manchester police say the boy, spotted in toulouse yesterday morning, is now a teenager but was just 11 years old when he went missing after leaving the uk to go on a holiday to spain. the force said it is now in touch with the french authorities to put safe guarding measures in place . now the bank measures in place. now the bank of england held the interest rate today at 5.25% for the third time in a row , third time in a row, parliament's treasury committee meeting last month, the bank's governor said the threat of the uk's inflation problem is being severely underestimated . a22 severely underestimated. a22

nurses from blackpool in lancashire are both facing prison sentences after they were found guilty of illegally sedating their patients. 54 year old catherine hudson has been given seven years and two months for drugging patients at blackpool's victoria hospital between 2017 and 2018. her 48 year old colleague charlotte wilmot, was found guilty of encouraging hudson to drug a patient and sentenced to three years behind bars. patient and sentenced to three years behind bars . a body has years behind bars. a body has been found following the explosion on an industrial estate in south wales last night. search fires were carried out at the site today after one person was unaccounted for. formal identification of the body has yet to take place , but body has yet to take place, but officers are supporting the family of a person who's been recorded as missing. police say there were no other reports of any injuries and they would now begin investigating the cause of the explosion and the resulting fire. lastly, the funeral for

the former minister, baroness kinnock has taken place. the family of the mep and wife of ex—labour leader lord kinnock says she was a proud democratic socialist who campaigned for justice and against poverty all her life. she was diagnosed with alzheimer's disease in 2017, when sir keir starmer described her as a true fighter for the labour party. he was seen arriving at the funeral ceremony earlier on today alongside gordon brown, tony blair and also rolling up in a car a bit later on. sadiq khan all. on tv, online, dab radio and the tune in app. this is gb news, britain's news channel . britain's news channel. >> imagine the scenes i hold a christmas for party friends and colleagues, but the invitation strictly states that people of colour are not welcome. or perhaps consider the outrage, the outrage at cancellation. if

your local theatre held a whites only night away from what organisers call the quotes black gays ' organisers call the quotes black gays , you just wouldn't do it, gays, you just wouldn't do it, would you? or maybe consider the nuclear fallout if it was revealed that your boss insisted on personally signing off on non—white recruits? well unfortunately, they're not actually hypothetical situations. they are genuine examples of discrimination based on the colour of someone's skin. except the real life versions have the roles reversed, where racism against white people is apparently the acceptable thing to do in the us city of boston, tone deaf mayor michelle wu was yesterday caught sending out ianes yesterday caught sending out invites to a christmas party that excluded white council workers closer to home. earlier this year , a london theatre saw this year, a london theatre saw no problem holding what they called a blackout performance strictly for a black identify audience and then today, it was revealed that even our financial institutions are riddled with this new kind of fashionable discrimination . amanda blank, discrimination. amanda blank, ironically named, presumably the chief executive of insurance

firm aviva, told stunned mps in parliament that all senior white male recruits had to be personally signed off by her as part of a diversity drive to stamp out sexism in the financial services industry. we can take a look at alison. >> there is no non—diverse hire at aviva without it being signed off by me and the chief people officer. what? not because i don't trust my team, but because i want to make sure that the process followed for that recruitment has been diverse, has been properly done, and it's not just phone to a mate not just a phone call to a mate to say, would you like a job? and, pop, up and and, you know, pop, pop up and we'll fix it up for you. so, you know, there's a lot of work that has been done. >> i'm sorry, but who hell >> i'm sorry, but who the hell scrolls compare looking scrolls down? go compare looking to their motor and to ensure their motor and considers anything other than the price in the terms of the policy. then again, fat cats like amanda blank, who earns an eye—watering £5.5 million a yean eye—watering £5.5 million a year, reportedly surely knows the public best. it's funny because i'm actually insured with aviva , and i don't seem to

with aviva, and i don't seem to remember her caring about accepting money. but accepting my white money. but let's clear , okay, these let's be clear, okay, these aren't just one off stories of a few wacky organisations being a little bit silly. is little bit silly. this is happening all over an official inquiry slammed the raf earlier this year for unlawfully discriminating against white men in a recruitment drive in that houer in a recruitment drive in that holier than thou bid to appear diverse. force bosses diverse. air force bosses apologised for practising positive discrimination instead and at the bbc, i mean, where else? radio five live presenter niall arthur nana akua said that working in a, quote, overwhelmingly white workplace was affecting his mental health. that is, despite the beeb's commitment to at least 20% black, asian minority ethnic black, asian and minority ethnic staff, though that staff, even though that demographic accounts for around 18% of the english and welsh population. meanwhile, in education it's white working class pupils, especially boys, who are actually the most in need of a leg up at the moment. it's them who are the worst performing demographic in british schools, and a report from parliament's education committee in 2021 concluded that

white, working class kids had been failed by decades of neglect and that's not a shock when you consider that two top private schools, dulwich college in south london and winchester college in hampshire, reportedly turned down a £1 million gift from the philanthropist sir bnan from the philanthropist sir brian thwaite to help underprivileged white boys get a top education over fears that that would break equality laws. but check your white privilege, boys and girls, and even if you don't, you'll eventually get found out by the ceo at aviva . found out by the ceo at aviva. amanda blank isn't it ironic that the very people who claim to be anti—racist are the ones looking to segregate people based on race? but let's get the thoughts now of my top panel this evening is daily telegraph columnist allison pearson . we've columnist allison pearson. we've got peer lord got conservative peer lord bailey , and we have former bailey, and we have got former labour aide stella kidu . labour aide stella kidu. allison, i'll start with you. you've got strong views on this. do you think that anti white racism exists and is time to racism exists and is it time to push back? racism exists and is it time to pusit back? racism exists and is it time to pusit definitely exists and it >> it definitely exists and it is the fact patrick, that um the

only group now you're safe discriminating against is white blokes basically just watching that clip of amanda bloke the ceo of aviva i'm thinking we're in very dodgy legal territory. i'm not sure she's even allowed to say that, but she's let the cat out of the bag. let me tell you one small story. my son white obviously has just graduated year. i was graduated this year. i was talking to a city ceo, very senior in a bank, and they said , senior in a bank, and they said, your son is well educated, nicely presented, clearly able , nicely presented, clearly able, and he's white. and he said he would be at the bottom of any list of people we were trying to recruit. and he also said that the diversity hires in their firm were often semi—literate. innumerate but this is in a bank. okay so what we are talking about is this diversity , talking about is this diversity, equality and inclusion which is now dominating. so many of the institutions. clearly uh, guiding the thinking of amanda

blank. i think it's absolutely not only is it absolutely disgraceful , patrick, in china disgraceful, patrick, in china and india and our competitors, you are not seeing people saying, let's get people in who look like this or talk like this. they are recruiting the best people. so this is going to end a race to the bottom where our country is no longer competitive. it's like a race, race to the bottom race, race in a way. >> yeah. sean, your views on this, i think there's three things to say. >> firstly, this sets >> i think, firstly, this sets up in the future up some animosity in the future because now if you're if you're a ceo you're a white a white ceo or you're a white recruiter start recruiter and you start to think, hold on a second, think, well, hold on a second, it's become that's going it's become a race that's going to me. maybe this is it's become a race that's going to chance me. maybe this is it's become a race that's going to chance tone. maybe this is it's become a race that's going to chance to push aybe this is it's become a race that's going to chance to push aybe on; is it's become a race that's going to chance to push aybe on the my chance to push back on the sly something differently. sly to do something differently. the real problem if you're a black it sets up the black person, it sets up the idea that you're only here because somebody wants you idea that you're only here be(here, somebody wants you idea that you're only here be(here, you're)dy wants you idea that you're only here be(here, you're not wants you idea that you're only here be(here, you're not up wants you idea that you're only here be(here, you're not up to rants you idea that you're only here be(here, you're not up to the; you to. here, you're not up to the job, not enough. and job, you're not good enough. and that means have a that that means you have a team that will working will avoid working with you. you'll thinks, you'll have a team that thinks, well, they'll me back. so well, they'll hold me back. so i just to them. be just need to park them. be polite, but never really work with that can be a with them. and that can be a real problem because that

affects your mental health. because a black person, you start ask yourself, start to ask yourself, hold on, is or it them? and the is it me or is it them? and the deepen is it me or is it them? and the deeper, deeper piece is, is deeper, the deeper piece is, is if really want to help black if you really want to help black people, what you need to do is positively support them, not segregate them, not eliminate people. because eliminating people, of its people, that pendulum of its propeller to attack white people , at some point it will swing back and people start to point fingers to these incidents. they'll well, used to they'll say, well, you used to block black people, white people . now it's your turn to block black i think it can be black people. i think it can be a real problem and really what it it's about virtue it is about, it's about virtue signalling you at signalling. if you look at businesses, particularly in america, such as disney, who virtue signal, america, such as disney, who virtue signal , affected their virtue signal, it affected their bottom was bottom line. if i was a shareholder, i'd start to ask questions about what is this going to our business? going to do to our business? >> do you think it's >> stella, do you think it's okay to situation where okay to have a situation where there's like a christmas there's things like a christmas party for party and it's only for non—white ? non—white people? >> no. obviously not. i think this ridiculous, don't this is ridiculous, but i don't think this is the same situation here. think the context is here. i think the context is completely different. i find it very , um, interesting, alison, very, um, interesting, alison, that you're bringing up india and china as an example because

i think that these are countries where you do see a lot more racism than in the uk. i do think that if you were black, for example, in india or china , for example, in india or china, you a problem going you would have a problem going up ladder in, uh , a similar up the ladder in, uh, a similar company like aviva . i do think company like aviva. i do think that there reason why. amanda, i think the comments are unfortunate. it's an unfortunate comment. the way she phrased it, but you need to look at the context. you're talking about the issues industry in the uk . the issues industry in the uk. what she's referring to is the fact that there needs to be due process. specifically, what is said is you can't have one person calling up a mate saying, hey, i just got laid off, i need a new job. do you have something which is the way how she got her job. she sees the way, which sees the way things used to happenin sees the way things used to happen in the insurance industry . absolutely true. they've had the kick up the butt and they've needed to change things. and this is why there is an inquiry as well. this is why there is a parliamentary inquiry into sexism in the city. but that the

old network give tarquin old boy network give tarquin a job that was bad . job that was bad. >> but what we are talking about here, specifically here, she is very specifically suggesting that if a white guy gets through to the shortlist for a senior position , she will for a senior position, she will be looking at him through a prism of diversity , which to me prism of diversity, which to me suggests that she will allege allegedly be biased against him. so she's not saying she will block him, she will check that there was due process . there was due process. >> that's what she's saying. could we just could we just put could we just literally reverse that a bit? >> i did at the top of my >> like i did at the top of my monologue there and right, monologue there and go, right, let's imagine the let's just imagine i was the boss of something. i was a terrifying to begin terrifying thought to begin with. i was boss of with. but if i was the boss of something and then i came out and right, every and said, right, every single like whatever, like black employee or whatever, i off on that. i personally sign off on that. i mean, racist, isn't mean, that's racist, isn't it? >> you are right. it's that >> yes. you are right. it's that would racism. because would be racism. because in the historical context of the uk, there has been racism against black people more than there has beenin black people more than there has been in the city of london and against white people. i do agree

someone's race, whether it's . someone's race, whether it's. white or black, must not be a consideration. ocean. but that's not what amanda was saying here. >> okay, look, the deeper thing for me is twofold . for me is twofold. >> so i have two children at home who are both mixed race. where do they stand in this little it'd be little dilemma? yeah, it'd be interesting. be interesting interesting. it'd be interesting to but the real i'm to know. but the real thing i'm talking about people the to know. but the real thing i'm talkand about people the to know. but the real thing i'm talkand she|t people the to know. but the real thing i'm talkand she is people the to know. but the real thing i'm talkand she is at people the to know. but the real thing i'm talkand she is at the eople the to know. but the real thing i'm talkand she is at the top.e the to know. but the real thing i'm talkand she is at the top here, he top and she is at the top here, make statements this make statements like this down the generates real, make statements like this down the animosity. jenerates real, make statements like this down the animosity. isnerates real, make statements like this down the animosity. i live tes real, make statements like this down the animosity. i live in; real, make statements like this down the animosity. i live in aeal, make statements like this down the animosity. i live in a very real animosity. i live in a very big working class area in big white working class area in romford of them romford. i am one of them because i'm working class . this because i'm working class. this lady separated me out . lady is just separated me out. they're well, have they're like, well, you have something and something i don't, sean and the boys, interact with the boys boys, i interact with the boys i grew up with, the boys they did army cadets we went to school with. we one and the same with. we are one and the same because working class, because we're working class, poor struggled. poor people who struggled. she has different them poor people who struggled. she has i different them poor people who struggled. she has i appreciate them poor people who struggled. she has i appreciate it. them that i don't appreciate it. >> on the working >> yeah. alison, on the working class white boys issue. right i, i very, very strongly about i feel very, very strongly about this. the idea that schools good schools would turn down a £1 million grant to help the most,

according to the current stats disadvantaged group of kids in school at the moment . i disadvantaged group of kids in school at the moment. i find that astonishing and i just don't think that that would happen any other way round. >> no, i don't think it would if they'd offered something for, you know, bringing on ethnic, ethnic minority pupils. yeah. it's just true. it's just true that white working class boys do the worst. and some in fact , the worst. and some in fact, greatly to the credit of the british education system, some of the highest performing children are chinese children are of chinese background and of indian background. the thing like background. the thing i'd like to patrick, that 82% of to say, patrick, is that 82% of population in england and wales is white british, right . it they is white british, right. it they pay is white british, right. it they pay for a lot of the stuff . if pay for a lot of the stuff. if their taxes pay for a lot of the stuff, they are the consumers. if you give them the majority white british population, the idea that their kids are not going to be offered the same places at university, we're seeing a brain drain from this country. we're seeing white kids who can't get into the best universities. city's going to the states, so

the united states, so there's a huge amount of discrimination. and think i agree with sean. i and i think i agree with sean. i think this could lead to extreme ill feeling , you know, a real ill feeling, you know, a real sense of who you think you sense of who do you think you are? you know, white people are still paying for this vast majority of country . majority of this country. >> so do you think that companies should be able to advertise jobs that white people can't for? can't apply for? >> absolutely not. i >> no. absolutely not. i actually to shock you actually i'm going to shock you there, don't believe there, patrick. i don't believe in for action in affirmative for action universities or for, uh, places. i think what we need to be doing is we need to make sure that there is no cronyism on any kind of characteristic . people should of characteristic. people should get their jobs and their universities based on merit . universities based on merit. >> and look, if you want to help people community, people from the black community, it's positive support. it's about positive support. it's is the blockages it's about what is the blockages to a a black person moving to a to a black person moving forward. i do they have same access to education. have you the processes deal with the processes that deal with racism? because if it's just somebodies opinion , she somebodies opinion, she effectively replaced the old boy network with her new network that will that will not pay dividends down the line. no it's absolutely on.

absolutely spot on. >> spot on. and >> it's absolutely spot on. and there wound up some kind there wound up being some kind of that. i just of pushback to that. i just really see how it really refuse to see how it creates anything like a harmonious . when you harmonious society. when you constantly people constantly pigeonholing people and which and using characteristics which none got any control none of us have got any control oven none of us have got any control over, got any over, none of us have got any control whatsoever about our genetics born and genetics and when we're born and what we are. cetera, genetics and when we're born and wicetera. we are. cetera, genetics and when we're born and wicetera. youe are. cetera, genetics and when we're born and wicetera. you know cetera, genetics and when we're born and wicetera. you know why etera, genetics and when we're born and wicetera. you know why you're et cetera. you know why you're almost something almost then assigned something at but at birth, aren't you? but anyway, there we go. still to come the for missing come as the search for missing mother gaynor intensifies mother gaynor lord intensifies and nicola bulley detectives have been drafted in to assist. i'll be joined by the former hunted star, undercover police detective , top cop peter detective, top cop peter bleksley, who will hopefully be able to shed a little bit more light on this mystery. incredibly intriguing situation, of is gripping of course, and it is gripping the nation at the moment. but up next, in tonight's first head to head mp and one nation head tory mp and one nation caucus member richard graham goes up against author and political commentator paul connew to ask the tories connew to ask if the tories should just cut their losses. now we've got another by—election coming up. the conservatives . should conservatives have. should they just a general election just do a general election anyway? also, how would you like

document for up to £4,000 a month. well recently the tories lost big majorities in tamworth and mid bedfordshire and benton seats in blackpool, south was won by just a 3700 votes majority . so good luck holding majority. so good luck holding on to that one. tories but do the conservatives need to rip the conservatives need to rip the plaster off and get this show the road? so tonight i'm show on the road? so tonight i'm asking, should we just have a general election now? let me know thoughts email know your thoughts. email gb views news. com you can views at gb news. com you can tweet me at gb news while you're there, go and take in our there, go and take part in our poll. you the results poll. i'll bring you the results very, well, to very, very shortly. well, to debate joined by debate this, i'm now joined by conservative graham debate this, i'm now joined by conspolitical graham debate this, i'm now joined by conspolitical commentator'aham debate this, i'm now joined by conspolitical commentator andn and political commentator and former editor of the sunday mirror, paul connew. both of you.thank mirror, paul connew. both of you. thank you very, very much. great on the show. great to have you on the show. richard i start you . i richard i will start with you. i mean, logic would say that we should just have general should just have a general election, would that be a election, but would that be a bit a turkey voting for christmas? >> i don't there's any >> i don't think there's any logic we should a logic that says we should have a general election, patrick. in fact, general election fact, i mean, general election is the end of january

is due by the end of january 2025. so we've got a long time to go this government's got a lot to do, and we're getting on with the when i go out with doing it. the when i go out and knock on doors, the last thing anyone says to me is let's have some more uncertainty. let's have a general election tomorrow. so that's not on the cards happen. of cards and it won't happen. of course, there are challenges that governments to that all governments have to deal with and occasional deal with and the occasional by—election. someone gets by—election. when someone gets the wrong is part of the rules badly wrong is part of what governments have to deal with. but that's got nothing with. but but that's got nothing to do with having a general election. so no, i don't think the country wants it, the country and it's not the country wants it, the countrto and it's not the country wants it, the countrto happen. and it's not going to happen. >> okay . paul, over to you now >> okay. paul, over to you now just respond to that, i think just to respond to that, i think i think the country deserves one. >> and the polls suggest the pubuc >> and the polls suggest the public actually want one, although i'm not holding my breath for them, for them getting it . getting it. >> um, although i'm told that there are various advice visors talking to rishi sunak and some advising go early spring, one in the spring, but others saying go

long, stick it out till october, november . november. >> i can't really see how you could just defy going through to 2025 to january then, because i think the idea of a of an election campaign hitting across christmas next year would actually be pushed , pushing it actually be pushed, pushing it rather with the with the public patience . patience. >> i suppose one of the issues, richard, is that , you know, richard, is that, you know, there's been a few negative by—election results recently for the haven't the conservatives, haven't they, to least, a massive, to say the least, a massive, massive turnovers swings. to say the least, a massive, mas know,|rnovers swings. to say the least, a massive, masknow,|rnoveris swings. to say the least, a massive, masknow,|rnoveris anothergs. to say the least, a massive, mas know,|rnoveris another one you know, if this is another one of it just another nail of them, is it just another nail in coffin. in rishi sunak coffin. >> yeah. governments >> yeah. well governments traditionally particularly when they're sort of they're they're in their sort of fourth terme. uh, don't do very well in by elections. we know that that's happened to all parties history. that that's happened to all parties history . we and so parties over history. we and so if there were a by—election, which is not yet decided or determined, but if there was , determined, but if there was, i'm sure it would be a tough one. no doubt that . but one. no doubt about that. but but isn't really the point but that isn't really the point that a general election is a

much bigger thing for the whole country. it affects parts of country. it affects all parts of the united kingdom, and you don't charge into that just because you've had a couple, or rather more than a couple of bad by—election results. that's that doesn't justify at all putting the country through a general election. of course, it's absolutely understandable that the spend their whole the opposition spend their whole time calling for a general election. but the truth is , and election. but the truth is, and i think this is where the media has an important role to play, is time has come for is that the time has come for the country to ask labour to do a than a little bit more than just calling election calling for a general election and ask them what their and actually ask them what their policies difficult issues policies on difficult issues might be. >> well, i actually agree with you on that. and paul, i was going to ask, you know, is this actually be what you actually be careful what you wish for the labour party, because, mean, have because, i mean, you'd have to come manifesto with come up with a manifesto with some that might some actual policies that might actually costed. he actually have to be costed. he might have us might actually have to tell us what might actually have to tell us thwell, some of my some of my >> well, some of my some of my labour contacts suggest that they go. would they should go. labour would welcome going longer because i think it's going to get worse for . for the tories. >> but i mean rich i think is

putting a bit of a gloss on the recent pattern of by—election results and, and rishi sunak must be contemplating , uh, our must be contemplating, uh, our leading psephologists , professor leading psephologists, professor richard, john, richard, john curtis, uh, recent prediction that, um, the current patterns the tory party could end up with as little as 135 seats, as he puts it at, you know, they'd be lucky to get 200 in a by—election, which puts you in a general election , which puts you general election, which puts you right back into tony blair lands allied victory scale . well, it's allied victory scale. well, it's fascinating, but frankly , the fascinating, but frankly, the turmoil around the tory party at the moment . the moment. >> but if armando iannucci had written this for an episode of the thick of it, you wouldn't. >> you wouldn't believe it. it's beyond satire. okay >> all right. richard, i do think that maybe you guys should welcome a general election purely because for that same reason, keir starmer would then have to tell the public what he

actually stands for, what he actually stands for, what he actually thinks, and would actually thinks, and that would give pick give you something to pick apart, wouldn't it? well look, i think, you know, that is going to the challenge for the to be the challenge for the labour party actually trying labour party is actually trying to what they do stand for. >> i mean, take what happened last for example. if you last week, for example. if you listen the shadow listen to the shadow home secretary, yvette cooper, you would the would have believed that the whole tory party was on the point of implosion during whole tory party was on the poirsecond plosion during whole tory party was on the poirsecond reading during whole tory party was on the poirsecond reading of during whole tory party was on the poirsecond reading of the during whole tory party was on the poirsecond reading of the rwanda the second reading of the rwanda safety not safety bill, in fact, not a single tory mp voted against it, and labour were once again humiliate by a significant vote in favour of a policy that is trying to address a major global issue , which is an increasing issue, which is an increasing amount of migration from africa and the middle east. and at no stage during that debate , to be stage during that debate, to be honest and objectively, did anyone hear what the labour policy was. my guess is that actually, if this works, and i think there's a good chance that it may well do, if it does work, i wouldn't be at all surprised if labour actually later on one day, if they ever become the government, would adopt the same

policy and just carry it on quietly, in the same way that they criticised the universal credit and have never yet said that actually they would keep it going, but they know that it has been the most successful welfare scheme in western europe , and it scheme in western europe, and it worked brilliantly during the pandemic . worked brilliantly during the pandemic. but again, worked brilliantly during the pandemic . but again, these are pandemic. but again, these are all issues need to be all issues that need to be prised my point prised out. from my point of view, are actually pretty view, we are actually pretty united. view, we are actually pretty unhed.the view, we are actually pretty united. the divisions have been wildly exagerar ated, and we're going to get on with the job. >> uh, paul, final word to you. do do buy that? i don't do you do you buy that? i don't buy that. >> i think the divisions are very clear there. and i think if anything at all, rishi sunaks only if you like, only got a if you like, a breathing space in the new, in the new year. i think the whole rwanda debate is going to flare up again. >> and it's also going to get bogged down in the lords to and legal challenges. >> i think the public are now wising up . wising up. >> what matter what their concerns are over migration, legal and illegal. the fact is that they're realising that

rwanda is basically tokenism. it's never going to be a serious policy . it's all about trying to policy. it's all about trying to placate the hard right. >> labour have got to come up with something though. this is the thing. you know. there is that argument. but then, you know, there is also the very reasonable is, know, there is also the very reas know,e is, know, there is also the very reas know, labour is, know, there is also the very reas know, labour we'll you know, labour saying we'll smash that's smash the gangs. well, that's that's like, well get brexit done, it? brexit means done, isn't it? as brexit means brexit gangs. brexit will smash the gangs. that's territory that's the kind of territory we're isn't it. but we're in here, isn't it. but look, charles, we could talk about evening. about this all evening. i'm very, the very, very grateful at the moment . moment. >> is keir starmer really needs moment. >> timeir starmer really needs moment. >> time fortarmer really needs moment. >> time for armer really needs moment. >> time for a change. lly needs it's time for a change. >> i think that is the public mood and yeah. >> or altogether siding factor and selection . yeah. and selection. yeah. >> the words together stronger or one of those slogans that people come up with anyway look charles very charles thank you very, very much. really really enjoyed this really informative hope really informative stuff. i hope to you both again to speak to you both again very, very conservative very soon. conservative mp richard graham. there political commentator, richard graham. there political consunday)r, richard graham. there political consunday mirror , paul connew. the sunday mirror, paul connew. well, you agree well, look who do you agree with. okay. as rishi sunak faces another potential by—election, should general should we just have a general election on twitter election now? chris, on twitter

says because labour would win says no because labour would win and it will be four years of chaos. i hate to break it to you, chris. it could five, you, chris. it could be five, but there we go. the tories need to rid of sunak. replace him to get rid of sunak. replace him with nigel, and only with boris or nigel, and only then they win an election. then would they win an election. damon the vast damon on twitter says the vast majority vote majority of the electorate vote either or labour. yeah, but either tory or labour. yeah, but if election were to be if a general election were to be held tomorrow, it would be hard to two to differentiate between the two parties. cracking point parties. it's a cracking point that cracking that darren absolutely cracking point . the parties that darren absolutely cracking point. the parties are that darren absolutely cracking point . the parties are the point. all the parties are the same . maybe all, but anyway, same. maybe not all, but anyway, sure not. twitter instead sure not. twitter says instead of endless by elections or another leadership contest, another tory leadership contest, let's just bring the election forward now. we need forward and do it now. we need change. you know, i can see i genuinely can see all sides of this. i normally like to have quite views, but i really quite strong views, but i really can it in the round on this can see it in the round on this one. your verdict is there. one. your verdict is in there. here we go. of you agree here we go. 60% of you agree that should just have that we should just have a general election. 40% you say general election. 40% of you say that should not so relatively that we should not so relatively split there. but thank you very much everyone taken much for everyone who's taken part uk part coming up as reform uk surge ahead of the liberal democrats in the latest polls, could nigel farage lead them to

a stunning at the ballot a stunning success at the ballot box? minister ann box? former tory minister ann widdecombe reform widdecombe rejoined reform earlier this year. she will be with us soon. she is going to be talking about whether or not it's too easy to cancel christmas christmas christmas after a cold christmas tree celebration was put on hold because and safety because of health and safety fears. but next, with the search for missing norwich mother for the missing norwich mother of lord, heading of three, gaynor, lord, heading into second week and nicola into its second week and nicola bullick is being rushed in to help the investigation . former help the investigation. former hunted undercover hunted star and undercover police detective bleksley hunted star and undercover pclive detective bleksley hunted star and undercover pclive intective bleksley hunted star and undercover pclive in the ive bleksley hunted star and undercover pclive in the studio bleksley hunted star and undercover pclive in the studio with aksley hunted star and undercover pclive in the studio with meey hunted star and undercover pclive in the studio with me to is live in the studio with me to hopefully shed a little bit more light the disappearance light on the disappearance that has the nation. he's has gripped the nation. he's next. i'll see you

isabel monday to thursdays from. six till 930. well come back how. >> now. >> the search for the missing norwich mother, gaynor lord continues tonight with specialist dive teams scouring the river wensum after the police said that there is a high probability that the 55 year old went into the water, the mother of three has been missing since last friday, when she left her job as a department store early before her belongings were found scattered park one mile scattered in a park one mile away. at a press conference earlier today, officers from norfolk constabulary addressed earlier today, officers from norerraticnstabulary addressed earlier today, officers from norerratic behaviour addressed earlier today, officers from nor erratic behaviour inidressed earlier today, officers from nor erratic behaviour in the ;sed her erratic behaviour in the hours before she went missing . hours before she went missing. >> watch and listen to this behaviour is out of character. we can't explain some of her behaviour and we're behaviour that day and we're working closely working really closely with the family, with friends, with anybody else that know that anybody else that we know that may contact in may have had contact with her in recent weeks try and recent days and weeks to try and understand this may have understand why this may have happened. she's happened. nobody knows why she's done done um, and we

done what she's done. um, and we will have to and will just have to work and see if we find it out . if we can find it out. >> but that hasn't stopped armchair detectives from sharing wild speculation online, which miss laude's family have slammed as unhelpful theories. currently doing the rounds , of course, doing the rounds, of course, include killer on the include serial killer on the loose, who murdered nicola burley, all of this kind of, you know, of know, really crazy stuff. of course nicola bailey's body was found wyre after found in the river wyre after she went in january. she went missing in january. well, i am joined now by well, look, i am joined now by former scotland yard detective peter bleksley we peter bleksley and peter. we obviously clips. obviously got some cctv clips. we're to play over this we're going to play over this while you talk us through certain bits and bobs. but you know what is your take on what's going on right now? i think overarching subject for me is, you know, in this day and age, i find increasingly difficult find it increasingly difficult to can just to see how people can can just go missing . really. what do you go missing. really. what do you gather from what know so far? gather from what we know so far? >> people do go missing. >> well, people do go missing. >> well, people do go missing. >> and sadly, some of them are never found. some go missing of their , others at the their own accord, others at the hands of others . and then of hands of others. and then of course, some people like nicola

bully accidentally falls into a river. as the coroner's inquest ruled. and of course, we cannot avoid certain similarities , liz, avoid certain similarities, liz, between nicola bully's disappearance and gaynor lord's disappearance and gaynor lord's disappearance primarily what the police are saying about they believe that gaynor has gone into the water. the lancashire police said that was their working hypothesis with nicola bully and of course, some weeks later, when her body was found, that was borne out to be true . that was borne out to be true. >> yeah. so police mentioned >> yeah. so the police mentioned erratic behaviour. also erratic behaviour. they also released a kind of series of cctv footage as well . what do cctv footage as well. what do you make of what we've seen so far then? well, at one point gaynoris far then? well, at one point gaynor is really in a hurry to get somewhere because we see a vehicle which i believe is a mini slammed the brakes on very, very quickly in order to avoid colliding with her. >> so that's pretty kind of risky behaviour . at another clip risky behaviour. at another clip that's been released more recently, we see gaynor looking to her, right? almost as if

she's over her shoulder, looking up at something. i would want boots on the ground saying what was she looking at? is there a poster there ? is there something poster there? is there something else of relevance? and then, of course, there's the half hour or so that gaynor spent in the cathedral . now, places of cathedral. now, places of worship are often places where people go for some solace, some contemplation, some prayer , contemplation, some prayer, perhaps to meet someone. i if i was leading the investigation, would want to know why she was there . and did she meet anyone? there. and did she meet anyone? no >> no, indeed. and then we have this supposed witness who is saying that they saw a woman in a yoga pose by the water. uh there was, you know, some belongings laid out there as well. that's another dimension to this , isn't it? to this, isn't it? >> yes, it is indeed. and i'm sure there is some rampant speculation already about those items. i would like to know the exact position in which those items were laid out. and then as a detective, you might be able

to make some kind of more informed decision as to why they may have been laid out, if indeed there was some rhyme or reason to that striking a yoga pose on a pretty chilly friday in december in the dark is not normal . and talking of the dark, normal. and talking of the dark, of course the police have got very few daylight hours during which to search the river. >> yeah, and that's a really good point, because i think if the nicola bully case taught me anything and a lot of people to me is clearly how difficult it is to search a body of water and that potentially is what they're up against now, isn't it? >> and rivers , lakes, >> indeed. and rivers, lakes, streams , canals and of course streams, canals and of course seas and oceans can often be very slow to give up their secrets . yes, the visibility at secrets. yes, the visibility at this time of the year, with the water that dark and the lack of daylight hours, is incredibly challenging. they will, of course , be using sonar and the

course, be using sonar and the like to try and get some kind of visibility down there, but it's going to be very, very challenging thing. and of course, they're applying a lot of resources to this search. >> they are some marked contrast boats. i would say in this case in the nicola bolly case, i think the police so far anyway, being a lot less forthcoming with potentially overly personal information . do you think information. do you think lessons have been learned there from . from. >> oh, undoubtedly there was, of course, uh, an inquiry into how lancashire police handled nicola bully's information , didn't they. >> in the previous case, they did. >> people thought they did at some point they started off by saying don't speculate at one press conference and then the officer giving that conference did nothing other go on to did nothing other than go on to speculate herself . and of speculate as herself. and of course, the release of the information in regards to the alcohol issue and perimenopause issues . deeply personal issues. deeply personal information which need not have been released. if only the

police in the very early stages had said there's personal information , that's why she's information, that's why she's vulnerable. we're not going to detail what those are . clearly, detail what those are. clearly, suffolk police here have learned some lessons from the nicola bully case in fact, we heard today that officers from the nicola bully investigation are assisting suffolk. i think they've got their handling of they've got their handling of the information to the media so far pretty good. we shall have to wait and see. >> we will have to wait and see. peter. thank you very, very much. it's great to have you on the show and have your insight and your expertise. that was former scotland yard detective peter bleksley there. i just want say well, our want to say as well, that our thoughts here to anybody thoughts here go out to anybody who is connected with gaynor lord, we do hope the lord, and we do hope for the best possible outcome to this. but you have any but if you do have any information that might help the police their for police in their search for gaynon police in their search for gaynor, contact gaynor, then please contact norfolk on 101, quoting norfolk police on 101, quoting incident number 427. so that's norfolk police 101, quoting incident number 427. if any of

those cctv images or whatever has jogged your memory on anything, then please do get in touch. but coming up, as the snp calls for limitless migration in an independent scotland, i asked my panel of top pundits what their limit on net migration would be. i want to put a number on it. i want to hear what they have to say. i also want to know what your number is as well. gb views or gb news. com but next nigel obviously into nigel farage obviously back into the conversation the political conversation now. isn't the isn't he decent display in the army jungle will help army celeb jungle will he help reform the tories? reform uk to topple the tories? we're seeing polls are we're seeing the polls are interesting the moment. interesting at the moment. former current former tory minister and current reform and widdecombe reform uk member and widdecombe beams in live her unrivalled beams in live for her unrivalled political insight, but also as well a christmas tree has been cancelled . why? for allegedly cancelled. why? for allegedly posing a health and safety risk, it comes in a long line. i think of things cancelling christmas. why are we doing that

all right, so apparently the snp plans to introduce limitless migration to scotland soon. between that , the girls and between that, the girls and refugees and all of the xl bullies, i'll tell you what scotland is going to be. what's the place to be, isn't it? but first, it's time for former tory minister and whittaker. now lots to get through tonight with an. we start with nigel he's we start with nigel farage. he's catapulted himself into the catapulted himself back into the headunes catapulted himself back into the headlines reaching the headlines after reaching the final of i'm a celeb last weekend , before delivering a weekend, before delivering a barnstorming monologue on immigration a high profile immigration in a high profile exit interview . there we go. so exit interview. there we go. so could a return to frontline politics now be on the cards for the brexit broker? well, as the honorary president of reform uk, who have surged ahead of the liberal democrats, who had 11% in recent polling, it can't be ruled out. but an i want to know whether or not you're are of the view that nigel could actually lead the party to electoral success. yes. what's going on there ? there? >> well , it there? >> well, it can be done if you

just look at our, uh, place in the polls, uh, at the beginning of the year, we only had a few percent. uh, now we're regularly getting double figures. uh, one poll even had us as high as 12. uh, so obviously , people are uh, so obviously, people are turning to us, uh, because they don't like what the two major parties are offering. and nigel is charismatic. uh, and people follow him, as was proven with those brexit, european elections, uh, people will follow him as long as reform continues to do what reform set out to do, which is to talk common sense, and that is what people want to hear. there's no common sense coming out of the tories moment, none tories at the moment, none at all. none from laboun >> so it's a massive ask, though, isn't it? with our current voting system, you know, a people as much as they a lot of people as much as they may like nigel farage, they think it is absolute, complete and utter cloud cuckoo land to suggest that that reform or him could actually get anywhere near winning an election. well the

fact is that it can only happen if people have the courage of their convictions , you know? their convictions, you know? >> i mean, i lost count of the number of people who said to me last time, uh oh, you know, i'd like to vote for the brexit party, i'm afraid of corbyn. party, but i'm afraid of corbyn. well, don't actually think well, i don't actually think people afraid of starmer. people are afraid of starmer. they should be. but they're not. uh, and so i think , you know, uh, and so i think, you know, people may if they're going to, they may decide this is the moment, as i've said to everybody, you know, if you want more of the same, vote for more of same. but if want of the same. but if you want real change, real common sense, vote yeah vote reform. yeah >> wonder if people are now >> i do wonder if people are now just of the status just actually sick of the status quo mean, know they've been quo. i mean, i know they've been saying for a while, saying that for a while, but i wonder whether that has wonder whether now that has actually but look, i'm actually happened. but look, i'm very your views on very keen to get your views on this because christmas is fast approaching are approaching and many brits are looking forward to festive markets celebrations, but they may be a little bit may be left a little bit disappointed. flurry of disappointed. a flurry of cancellations the nation cancellations across the nation manchester, and manchester, sheffield and lincoln have all seen christmas lights switch ons and festive markets cancelled due to quote

unquote save safety concerns. a further six cities, including brighton , well, they've had brighton, well, they've had cancellations due to budgets . cancellations due to budgets. yes. and we recently had a situation as well where i think a christmas tree was deemed to be going against health and safety. surely it can't be that difficult to secure a christmas tree, an is there a tree, but an is there a traditional british christmas becoming thing past? is becoming a thing of the past? is it under siege ? it under siege? >> oh yes, i think it is. um, i mean , if you look at displays in mean, if you look at displays in shop windows , they're all shop windows, they're all display winter scenes, but they don't display a crib, they don't display nativity uh, display the nativity scene. uh, at and certainly, of course, you can secure a christmas tree. it's absolutely wet . but to it's absolutely wet. but to suggest that a christmas tree could pose a danger , uh, to could pose a danger, uh, to health and safety. uh, and today i tried to get some party poppers in w h smith , and i was poppers in w h smith, and i was informed that i couldn't do that because they were classified as explosive as . explosive as. >> oh, my gosh, seriously , i >> oh, my gosh, seriously, i thought i'm somewhere else. >> but seriously , that was what >> but seriously, that was what

i was told in w h smith that they were explosives . they were explosives. >> yes, i do like the idea that someone will have not heard what you were in there asking for. right? and they've just seen , as right? and they've just seen, as far concerned. and far as they're concerned. and widdicombe sold widdicombe demanding to be sold explosives w h explosives from someone at w h smith. that a that's smith. that is a that's a headuneif smith. that is a that's a headline if ever i've seen one. um but yeah, we are a christian country. now, i know that a lot of the fanfare that goes on around around now is, around around christmas now is, is not that christian necessarily. more of a just necessarily. it's more of a just a holiday in general, really. but are you concerned that in a christian country we are we are losing that, that love or that pubuc losing that, that love or that public celebration of christmas ? yes. >> well, we are losing it, but it's up to christians , uh, to it's up to christians, uh, to reverse that situation . it's not reverse that situation. it's not up to anybody else, not up to the government. it's not up to local councils. it's up to christians to reverse that. and if make their heard if they make their voice heard and you know, we do and say, you know, we do actually want to remember what christmas is about, which is actually the dawn of redemption, which i suspect a lot of people have clean forgotten. uh, then,

you know, we have to make our voice heard . and if we don't and voice heard. and if we don't and we can't complain. >> um, no , indeed. and it annoys >> um, no, indeed. and it annoys me that councils especially just seem like they'll cancel it like that. but, you know, they'll make up some and story make up some cock and bull story about health and safety. what would message these would your message to these these across these councils be right across these councils be right across the country and well, my message would be more to their voters. >> those who vote for these councils to and say, just remember , you know, when may remember, you know, when may comes or whenever it may be, that your next voting and a council election, just remember that the line they took at christmas. >> um, yeah . strong words and >> um, yeah. strong words and thank you very much. ann widdecombe. they're an incredible, formidable ann widdecombe now coming as mark widdecombe now coming up as mark drakeford leaves wales in quite a sorry state and a labour run council tries to cancel the great british explorer, captain james cook. yeah, seriously , can james cook. yeah, seriously, can we actually really trust the labour party to govern the nation, or are there just going to end up getting bogged down in

all of this stuff and renaming road signs, etc? what would the reality underneath labour reality underneath a labour government reality underneath a labour gover as ent reality underneath a labour gover as the snp threatens next, as the snp threatens scotland with limitless migration , an i pinned down the migration, an i pinned down the panel on the figures that they would find acceptable for net migration in the uk. okay so i've made them give me a firm, rigid number. i want to know what yours is as well. get in touch gbviews@gbnews.com some people so far are going for net zero migration, so a firm zero sum people are willing to accept around 100,000. but it's fascinating isn't it? when you see what the latest from the conservatives is, which is that they'll accept somewhere in the region of 400,000. well, if they miss that, extent to miss that, by the extent to which they've missed their current target , which was current target, which was somewhere the region somewhere in the region of 200,000, we'll end up 200,000, then we'll end up having net migration over a million every single year. so thatis million every single year. so that is actually quite astonishing . so when we come astonishing. so when we come back, i want to hear from you and we'll hearing our and we'll be hearing from our panel pinning you down exactly on what figure you for net on what figure you want for net migration. and i will have all

there's a number of lines of inquiry that we are pursuing, but everything that we know is pointing to a high probability that gaynor went into the water, and that that would be from the cctv , from the very limited cctv, from the very limited witnesses that we've got available to us at the moment. >> another lines of inquiry that we're gaynor's we're pursuing about gaynor's behaviour up to her behaviour in the lead up to her disappearance. so at moment disappearance. so at the moment the key factor the river is a really key factor for now. it's not to that for us now. it's not to say that other specialist teams other specialist police teams aren't working other lines aren't working on other lines of inquiry, are, but inquiry, because they are, but at the moment you're that at the moment you're seeing that intensive the intensive effort around the searching water and the searching of the water and the parks and some of the parks around and some of the other land this area . other land around this area. >> meanwhile, a missing british boy who's believed to have disappeared six years ago has been found in france. greater manchester police say the boy , manchester police say the boy, who was spotted in toulouse yesterday morning, is now a teenager but was just 11 years old when he went missing after leaving the uk to go on a houday leaving the uk to go on a holiday to spain. the force said it's now in touch with the french authorities to put safeguarding measures in place .

britain's news channel. >> a heck of a lot to get through this hour. we start with this. is it time to put a hard fixed cap on immigration? today it emerged that 1 in 4 students from india and bangladesh apparently drop out of their university course . so come over university course. so come over here, your dependents , and here, bring your dependents, and just out and crack with just drop out and crack on with your up in scotland, your life. up in scotland, they've on they've gone full tonto on immigration, national immigration, scottish national party politician kirsty blackman says that she wants limitless people every year , right? people every year, right? >> the whole the whole idea , the >> the whole the whole idea, the whole trying to get, you know , whole trying to get, you know, win votes this only works if win votes on this only works if you start from the premise that immigration is a bad thing and that shouldn't have it, and that we shouldn't have it, and that we shouldn't have it, and that need to reduce it and that we need to reduce it and that we need to reduce it and that we need to reduce it and that we need to stop people coming would coming here. would an independent a cap independent scotland have a cap on immigration? >> no . >> no. >> no. >> okay. all right . is it any >> okay. all right. is it any wonder that humza yousaf wants to create new tax band for to create a new tax band for higher ? he's reportedly higher earners? he's reportedly thinking of anyone thinking of making anyone or more around put their more than around 75 k put their handin more than around 75 k put their hand in their pocket to fill a

£15 billion black hole in his £1.5 billion black hole in his budget . i £1.5 billion black hole in his budget. i wonder why £1.5 billion black hole in his budget . i wonder why there's budget. i wonder why there's such a huge hole there, mr yousaf, but presumably they could just tax all the guards and refugees he wants to bring in. or the xl bully owners, sadiq khan in london, has said that plans to cut immigration would cause a massive recruitment crisis. that's clearly needs to do is clearly what he needs to do is hang around outside university and wait for all of those indian and wait for all of those indian and bangladeshi students to drop out courses. out of their courses. after a week them a job at week and offer them a job at pret a manger. there are plans at make foreign at the moment to make foreign students grades, students hit certain grades, otherwise won't allowed students hit certain grades, oti stay, ;e won't allowed students hit certain grades, otistay, which won't allowed students hit certain grades, otistay, which won't is allowed students hit certain grades, otistay, which won't is a steped to stay, which i think is a step in right direction. but in the right direction. but james cleverly is essentially said now said the government is now working a net migration working at a net migration target of somewhere in the region of 400,000. well, given the track record of those targets being wildly wrong, it'll probably come in at about 2.5 million. but there's story 2.5 million. but there's a story that flew under the radar actually, and think this will actually, and i think this will interest you. so serco is a company that helps the government find and run migrant hotels in the uk, amongst other things . and it's just expanded

things. and it's just expanded across europe . so pockets full across europe. so pockets full of taxpayers cash because of the migrant crisis, serco have just spent £40 million buying an asylum seeker accommodation company in germany. they see the german market as somewhere that's about to boom, no doubt that'll be heading our way soon. now, according to the ft, serco is expecting acquisitions and strong demand for immigration and defence services to push revenue up 7% to £48 billion in the current financial year. underlying operating profits are projected to rise 3. to hold on to your hats here, £245 million operating profits of that i mean it will be a relief to us, won't it, that the migrant crisis has more than offset the loss that those poor people at serco suffered during the covid pandemic it doesn't seem pandemic? it just doesn't seem to like those in the know. to me like those in the know. think that anything is really going to be done about immigration, legal illegal. immigration, legal or illegal. so is it time for a fixed cap, and if so, what should that cap

be to respond to this? now and answer that question, i'm joined by daily telegraph columnist allison conservative allison pearson, conservative peer lord shaun bailey and former labour aide stella tranter. kaiju allison, i will start with you. i'll be honest with you. we had an office sweepstake. we thought we'd go for zero, but you've not. what is your number? >> i'm going to open the bidding. i've got a reason bidding. okay, i've got a reason for so last year, 745,000 for this. so last year, 745,000 immigration. totally mad . immigration. totally mad. unsustainable. putting huge pressure on public services. so i'm going to go in at £200,000, which is what it was roughly when david cameron, um, came to government as prime minister. and the reasoning there, patrick, is that i actually think it should be running at 100,000 or 50,000. but because the government hasn't trained enough of our own doctors, our own nurses , our own care home own nurses, our own care home workers, our own dentist , own nurses, our own care home workers, our own dentist, our own midwives, we couldn't just go to zero, we couldn't because we are so reliant . we have been we are so reliant. we have been training so few of our own kids

as doctors. there's a huge lack of people for certain jobs, so you'd have to phase it in. i'm quite attracted to the richard tice reform party. they're saying it's net zero zero migration. one out, one in, and the sdp party, they want to have a pause on mass immigration for a pause on mass immigration for a generation, not because they're racist or opposed to immigrants. it's because they want to give the people who've come here, the millions of people who've come here, time to settle in and integrate, because what facing is crisis, what we are facing is a crisis, too many people, not enough time too many people, not enough time to integrate. so you're going 200,000, 200,000 with a view to coming down in a couple of years. >> all right, allison pearson there on 200,000. there we go . there on 200,000. there we go. there we are, 200,000. you can't go back on that . now is your go back on that. now is your picture next to it in the numbers. and there we are. lord shaun what's number? >> i'm going to join. i'm >> i'm also going to join. i'm going go to 100,002 ten going to go to 100,002 ten around there. but i, i tell you why. i tell you why you cannot run a decent country if you

cannot plan. you have to have some how many schools, some idea of how many schools, how doctors also you how many doctors and also you can't safe world order if can't have a safe world order if you mass immigration you just have mass immigration everywhere. we always talk about how proud we are that the nhs is run by people from all over the world. what we talk about world. what we never talk about is that we devasted is the fact that we devasted their service we've their health service and we've taken from them, taken the brain drain from them, and countries that and these are countries that need their to do their need their best to do their best. should actually a best. so we should actually be a little ashamed and little bit ashamed of that and not such not talk about if it's such a good thing. but the other piece is this we have so many people who are economically inactive. so when sadiq khan says, if you cut off immigration, there'll be a crisis in employment, he he may well be right, but he's right for the wrong reasons. why why are we not getting the people that are in this country black, straight , black, white, gay, straight, tall, fat, thin, whatever? why are we not getting them to work for for the for their own good and for the good the country? and the good of the country? and the other thing i'll say about immigration, i always think about linked the about immigration linked to the amount spend on amount of money we spend on international development. we currently 4 billion on currently spend 4 billion on immigration and closer to 20

billion on on international. the two things for me are us doing our piece in the world. so when people say i should have a higher i point out to higher figure, i point out to them reducing immigration to them i'm reducing immigration to keep figure, do keep that figure, to do international development. as far no , it makes sense far as it is, no, it makes sense to anyway . to me anyway. >> what's your what's >> stella, what's your what's your number? we've asked everybody a a number everybody to put a put a number on come on. what's yours? oh on it. come on. what's yours? oh my god, patrick, love the fact my god, patrick, i love the fact that are giving that you are giving me the opportunity my opportunity to quote my favourite girls . favourite movie, mean girls. >> not exist . >> the limit does not exist. >> the limit does not exist. >> the limit does not exist. >> the limit does not. okay. all right. i must say you're off to a good start with that answer. but so we've had to put a question mark. stella. so the limit doesn't exist. so what does mean? does that mean does that mean? does that mean that just think that you just you just think everyone allowed in? everyone should be allowed in? >> what >> it means no, that's not what it can still have it means. you can still have borders. not an border . borders. i'm not an open border. borders, lefty. i think you should have borders. you should have a points based system where you look at the economy, you look where you have gaps, you look where you have gaps, you look your and look at your needs, and depending that, you look at your needs, and depending that , you allow depending on that, you allow people come in legally people to come in legally through the legal routes and

that does include universities because we do need university students . but is it? yes, it students. but is it? yes, it could be. it could be zero. but i don't think it's going to be zero. and it's not just based on the economy, of course, because there are other very valid reasons for people to come here. for someone may fall in for example, someone may fall in love with a british person, believe it or not, and they may want to move here to get married i >> -- >> yeah. -_ >> yeah. no, indeed . the problem >> yeah. no, indeed. the problem possibly when people hear that stella is , is that not just stella is, is that not just quite a soft way of actually saying that you don't really want any controls on immigration? >> no. and i'll tell you why. i think it's just arbitrary to put a number. how do you know if two years from now or next year, for example, you had the coronavirus epidemic, for example, right. which meant that suddenly you didn't, you needed more medical staff. how do you know what's going to happen in the next year ? have a housing crisis. you ? you have a housing crisis. you need workers need more construction workers and this is why the conservative government put new visa, put new

visa requirements to allow more construction. >> we bought a house. >> we bought a house. >> we bought a house. >> we that's where that's where we went wrong. that's where we went wrong. why are we not concentrating on the people in this we should be this country? we should be getting them to the getting them to build the country. a housing country. we've got a housing crisis, because we've crisis, stella, because we've got many immigrants. crisis, stella, because we've got immigrantsnmigrants. crisis, stella, because we've got immigrants have �*ants. crisis, stella, because we've got immigrants have come in. let >> immigrants have come in. let me just come back to patrick's point serco. one of my point about serco. one of my telegraph readers wrote to say he's landlord. he'd been he's a landlord. he'd been ianed he's a landlord. he'd been invited to a meeting. they invited to a serco meeting. they were offering all the landlords a amount of fixed rent to a huge amount of fixed rent to take illegal migrants, and that is going to mean kids of my, my kids age in their 20s. they are going to be bid up out of the ability to rent places because my taxes and your taxes are being spent by serco to pay off landlords who long leases huge amounts of money. that is outrageous. >> and sometimes reportedly sometimes as well . the sometimes as well. the renovation costs afterwards. so right. we'll take this hotel. we'll give you this amount for it and we'll renovate it after

the asylum seekers have have gone right , the asylum seekers have have gone right, which may well, by the way, be never. and that was a point that i was alluding to, which is if you've got companies like serco raking it in and they're looking to expand across europe , i'll be honest with you. europe, i'll be honest with you. does to you does that look to you like they're on this they're planning on this migrant crisis, stopping soon? crisis, stopping any time soon? it and they're it doesn't to me. and they're involved home office, involved with the home office, not here but other not just here but other countries as well. they're countries as well. so they're plugged countries as well. so they're plu thei countries as well. so they're plu the other thing, patrick as >> the other thing, patrick as well, that's really terrible >> the other thing, patrick as well, 1that. really terrible >> the other thing, patrick as well, 1that. isally terrible >> the other thing, patrick as well, 1that. is that :errible >> the other thing, patrick as well, 1that. is that enormous about that. is that enormous pressure. it puts local authorities they authorities under because they cannot with serco. and cannot compete with serco. and they they have legal, um, they have they have a legal, um, job. they have a legal statutory job. they have a legal statutory job to keep people housed , and job to keep people housed, and then they lose out to circa because serco has more money. so actually, there's a moral question there about who and when the government funds, because they fund serco to the point where serco outbid point where serco can outbid the council. not good. point where serco can outbid the couand not good. point where serco can outbid the couand if not good. point where serco can outbid the couand if you not good. point where serco can outbid the couand if you put good. point where serco can outbid the couand if you put a ood. point where serco can outbid the couand if you put a cap on the >> and if you put a cap on the amount of people you're going to welcome in every year, stella, it with that. it helps out with that. the cap would not affect illegal immigrants and asylum seekers, even you a cap on zero, even if you put a cap on zero, you more immigrants.

even if you put a cap on zero, youpeople more immigrants. even if you put a cap on zero, you people wille immigrants. even if you put a cap on zero, you people will stillmigrants. even if you put a cap on zero, you people will stillmigrarin. >> people will still come in small boats. people will still try illegally cross the border. >> the number of those let's be let's very, very clear. let's be very, very clear. >> i want zero illegal immigrants. >> let's zero. talking >> let's be zero. we're talking the between between the difference between between economic . yeah. and economic migrants. yeah. and people asylum now people people seeking asylum now people seeking asylum. tiny seeking asylum. it's a tiny number. real asylum seekers. there's a tiny number. and it's irrelevant to conversation . irrelevant to this conversation. we're talking people who we're talking about people who are economic migrants. that is something should something we can and should control because that's you control, because that's how you plan country. and also plan a proper country. and also a proper world. but there's countries there who are countries out there who are absolutely terrible, make people homeless, murder, killing, rape. and we them let and then we take them and let that situation. but what the conservatives are saying that you cleverly saying, you know, james cleverly saying, oh, down to 300,000. >> are still clamping >> they are still not clamping down the vast numbers. the universal his is a total racket, not only are these people coming in to study, many of them completely allegedly bogus courses, but allow to bring their, you know , mums, dads, their, you know, mums, dads, aunfies their, you know, mums, dads, aunties , dependants who aren't aunties, dependants who aren't economically active and then are

using the gps and the food banks and the services . this is and the services. this is absolutely nuts. they are they. the government should be aiming to get it down to 200,000, 200,001, because that's stella . thanks. >> thank you, thank you. there we go. >> i was about to say, don't forget about me . forget about me. >> all right. lovely point to end it on that, i think. and get ready for more of my wonderful panelin ready for more of my wonderful panel in the lively newspaper review. press pack tear review. as my press pack tear through very first of through the very first of tomorrow's front pages and next, mad dog drakeford is leaving the welsh senate in a worse welsh senate in a far worse place than when he found it. some so can his boss, some would say so can his boss, sir keir starmer, really be trusted with the keys to number 10, his labour 10, especially as his labour party ever more? woke the party goes ever more? woke the dame with game andrea jenkyns mp goes head to head with political commentator mike buckley and believe they are poles apart believe me, they are poles apart on this. also £1,000 cash, brand new tax shopping vouchers. well you could be the very first winner of our first great british giveaway just in time

have arrived post epiphany due to mile an hour to the blanket 20 mile an hour speed and poor speed limit and the poor condition of the road network. do not fall for what labour say. look at what they do when they are in power . are in power. >> okay, well , it's not just >> okay, well, it's not just welsh labour running riot . welsh labour running riot. middlesbrough labour council have got eyes rolling by trying to cancel one of the greatest ever explorers, captain james cook , by rebranding a shopping cook, by rebranding a shopping centre named after him and threatening to close a museum built in his memory. i mean, good grief, that's before we've got started on other labour councils changing road names and all of this rubbish anyway, so can labour ever trusted to can labour ever be trusted to run show nationally? doing run the show nationally? doing battle on is former battle on this now is former labour adviser mike buckley, and we've also got dame andrea jenkyns mp. the former education minister always ladies minister has always ladies first. so dame andrea, i'll start with you. you know, could labour ever actually be trusted? do think? do you think? >> definitely not patrick. i mean, i've got family , um, who mean, i've got family, um, who live in wales. i'm going there to deliver christmas presents next week. and they say it's

gone to dogs under labour gone to the dogs under labour and i've, i for one, are sad to see him step down because i think him and labour wales epitomises why people should not vote labour and you mentioned patrick actually about the um changing of names and buildings. um, let's not forget how they , um, let's not forget how they, you know, cancelled out winston churchill hill by renaming roads and buildings named after him and buildings named after him and also the taxpayers alliance of . i've said recently how they of. i've said recently how they spend £9 million on woke jobs , spend £9 million on woke jobs, diversity and inclusion officers and wellbeing officers. so i think they epitomise why people should not vote labour nationally . nationally. >> all right. throw it over now to former labour advisor mike buckley. i'm a finances in a bit of a mess 20 mile an hour speed limits alleged attacks on our culture and history. what do you reckon mike? >> uh, well, i mean , the thing >> uh, well, i mean, the thing about captain cook, which isn't in wales, is it's in middlesbrough . middlesbrough. >> i think, um , uh, i was >> i think, um, uh, i was reading about that earlier on,

andifs reading about that earlier on, and it's the owners of the shopping centre have shopping centre that have decided to rename the shopping centre. >> it's nothing to with the >> it's nothing to do with the labour museum labour council. and the museum is the council is closing because the council is closing because the council is of cash. and that is short of cash. and that is entirely this entirely a decision of this government, which, we know, government, which, as we know, has slashed funding has slashed council funding across but to come across the country. but to come to wales, i mean, has been to wales, i mean, wales has been underfunded for 13 years, just like the country has like the rest of the country has been underfunded for 13 years by this government. so it's that that that wales that is the fault that wales has got a more elderly population than the uk a than the rest of the uk and a more sick population. the rest of uk. just hasn't had of the uk. it just hasn't had the resources to be able take the resources to be able to take care of people as it would care of its people as it would want and in want to. and i think in difficult circumstances, mark drakeford has done very good difficult circumstances, mark drakbutd has done very good difficult circumstances, mark drakbut listening|e very good difficult circumstances, mark drakbut listening to very good difficult circumstances, mark drakbut listening to what good difficult circumstances, mark drakbut listening to what penny job. but listening to what penny mordaunt said earlier on about the country and my the state of the country and my goodness, gall goodness, it takes some gall to call the call out labour in wales for the state country. we've had state of the country. we've had a national government for 13 years, literally what has got better last years? better in the last 13 years? literally got literally nothing has got better. at the state of better. you look at the state of nhs waiting list, for example, record lows 13 ago, record record lows 13 years ago, record highs talked about highs now, and we talked about that. all right . highs now, and we talked about that. all right. highest in this country. now right. >> i mean you say about just go

for andrea. >> sorry, sorry i'll come back to you mike. mike i'll come back to you mike. mike i'll come back to you, mate. i'll go to andrea. yeah >> well, um, you're saying about labour's underfunded . labour's being underfunded. well, announce, well, why did they announce, given, um, migrants , given, you know, um, migrants, £1,600 of legal aid, taxpayers money, um, to fight, deport nafion? money, um, to fight, deport nation? is that not a complete waste of taxpayers money? because i think that should money should not go on woke jobs or , um, giving it to lawyers or, um, giving it to lawyers who's trying to fight. um, um , who's trying to fight. um, um, for the lefty causes. i think it should be going in hospitals and, and the 20 miles an hour speed limit is just bonkers. now labour like to control people's lives, so don't believe people should leave the lives that they they want to lead. i mean, look what they did in lockdown as well. there was far stricter look how you went into supermarkets and my sister said you even get certain you couldn't even get certain items because they said it wasn't essential items . all right. >> mike, i mean, i heard you i heard what you were saying before. obviously you come back to whatever andrea has said

before. obviously you come back to wh as�*ver andrea has said before. obviously you come back to wh as�*ver a|buta has said before. obviously you come back to wh as�*ver a|but i has said before. obviously you come back to wh as�*ver a|but i mean, d before. obviously you come back to wh as�*ver a|but i mean, you there as well. but i mean, you have acknowledge there as well. but i mean, you have mark acknowledge there as well. but i mean, you have mark drapeeredge charge surely mark draper was in charge of something right? of something in wales, right? i mean, know, and it hasn't he mean, you know, and it hasn't he was. >> well, i'm not i'm not suggesting minute suggesting for a minute that marks everything and marks get everything right and actually on actually i'm not an expert on mark's record, but was mean, mark's record, but i was i mean, in preparation for this afternoon, earlier afternoon, i was reading earlier about are way about why things are the way that they are, you know, in wales was looking at the record and the and was looking at the underfunding that they've had. they more they have been given more, more money. in terms of the money. you know, in terms of the total number. that's been total number. but that's been more out for example, more than wiped out for example, over 18 months by the over the last 18 months by the fact that inflation has skyrocketed because of liz truss's mini—budget truss's so—called mini—budget um, so, i mean, that's a factor. and andrea talks about lockdown and the extra measures that they took try and protect as took to try and protect lives as a got the 20th, a country. we've got the 20th, 20th highest death rate in the world out of all the 200 countries in the world. we've got the 20th highest death rate because of mistakes made made by this government, which are now being heavily publicised in the covid inquiry. government covid inquiry. this government made an absolutely catastrophic mess the covid. mess of the covid. >> so are you are you proud of their wales ?

their record in wales? >> nhs wales is the thing , mark. >> nhs wales is the thing, mark. we're trying. we are trying to zone in a bit on, you know, with respect the areas where labour is in power, one version of it or another, whether whether or not a, whether not it's not it's a, whether or not it's a council like like birmingham for example, where there were quite money quite egregious waste of money on really on things that didn't really work well , there work there, like, well, there were names, but there were the road names, but there was things like systems was also things like it systems and taxis, etc. all went and taxis, etc. that all went a bit weird. and then they've gone p0p- bit weird. and then they've gone pop. have a look pop. and then you do have a look at like the welsh nhs. at things like the welsh nhs. i mean, it fair to maybe look mean, it is fair to maybe look at and go, hang on a at that and go, well hang on a minute. labour had it is you minute. if labour had it is you have it in the round. >> government can >> the welsh government can only do it can do because it do what it can do because it gets the government grant from gets the government a grant from central grant gets the government a grant from centbeen grant gets the government a grant from centbeen dramatically grant has been dramatically cut in terms terms value, but terms of real terms value, but also cut because of terms of real terms value, but alscfact cut because of terms of real terms value, but alscfact that cut because of terms of real terms value, but alscfact that we'veecause of terms of real terms value, but alscfact that we've had|se of the fact that we've had a stalling economy for the past 13 years. and because of the fact that rampant that we've had such rampant inflation 18 inflation for the last 18 months, know, you have to months, you know, you have to look the round. okay look at it in the round. okay >> right. i think the >> all right. i think the concern for a lot of people as well might that labour well might be that if labour goes of cultural goes after the kind of cultural stuff little bit, we've

west. signal a change of tactics from the terror group. like i said, we'll discuss this with the panel. just stick with the telegraph for a second for me, please, because it's actually a couple of really great stories on here well. tony blair took on here as well. tony blair took £1 million to fox £1 million donation to ban fox hunting, and hunting, says mandelson. and this talk of an under 16 ban on social media use, or limiting it as well. so good front page of the telegraph. there lots on it. now go to the metro, kidnap alex, walks free interpol search for a brit child ends in france. this frankly is an unbelievable story. actually so this guy, a guy who was 11 when he vanished to be, uh , what will he be now? to be, uh, what will he be now? 17, i think 17. yeah. um he was believed to have been abducted on holiday six years ago. he's been found in france. the mirror also going with this story. lost brit boy found after six years. he says he was kidnapped by mum and taken to a spanish commune . and taken to a spanish commune. um, he's supposedly going to be repatriate to britain. well, we think anyway in the next day or

the or the coming hours, uh, potentially a truly remarkable story. um, look, i will just. i'll go over to my panel now. um i'll go over to my panel now. um i'll start with this. just just because it's probably the story that of jumps out in a that kind of most jumps out in a sense how how bizarre it is. sense of how how bizarre it is. you've important to you've it's important to understand know a huge understand we don't know a huge amount at the moment, but you know, seven year old know, this guy, seven year old now was supposedly abducted, you know , uh, six years ago, he's know, uh, six years ago, he's been found . and it's remarkable, been found. and it's remarkable, isn't it? >> yeah. but what does abducted mean, abduct. >> abducted? we normally think kidnap, don't we? we don't normally mean family members have taken them into some. i mean, it's not unknown . patrick, mean, it's not unknown. patrick, particularly in the states, is it is people walk off with small children into cults and the grandparents don't see them again. but it is an amazing story, isn't it? >> i mean, the detail is that he handed himself into police handed himself into a police station hiking to freedom station after hiking to freedom in the foothills of the pyrenees. >> that's the thing. is it so when you're i don't know, the legal status, who is his legal

guardian? but when you're 11, if guardian? but when you're11, if your mum takes somewhere, your mum takes you somewhere, your mum takes you somewhere, you abducted you probably don't feel abducted . but grown up, probably . but he's grown up, probably realised some stuff and of realised some stuff and sort of thinking. a second. i thinking. hold on a second. i i remember this differently and handed himself in because it's interesting. have interesting. how would they have kept been abducted kept him if he had been abducted and kept in this place? he was from greater manchester originally, yeah. originally, wasn't it? yeah. he's mancunians. he's like any mancunians. i knows . stronger, his knows. he's stronger, made his mind up and started marching. knows. he's stronger, made his miryeah,and started marching. knows. he's stronger, made his miryeah, |td started marching. knows. he's stronger, made his miryeah, i mean ted marching. knows. he's stronger, made his miryeah, i mean wellnarching. knows. he's stronger, made his miryeah, i mean well look,ng. knows. he's stronger, made his miryeah, i mean well look, what >> yeah, i mean well look, what i'm going to do is i'm going to whizzes along a little bit because that's essentially all the know about the detail that we know about that at the moment. but um, i mean, all right. mean, hopefully he's all right. and can see a netflix and it just i can see a netflix series the making there series in the making there already. don't about already. i don't know about you, but on the but yeah, we'll focus in on the telegraph. to kill telegraph. hamas plot to kill jews europe . foiled. i'll jews in europe. foiled. i'll give you a little more give you a little bit more detail on this, hamas detail on this, uh, hamas plot to jews europe. was to kill jews in europe. was foiled by german and danish police, uncovered the terror police, who uncovered the terror group's of group's alarming change of tactics. supposedly tactics. they're supposedly going be using a cross—border going to be using a cross—border attack. they were under orders to bring a cache weapons from to bring a cache of weapons from an undisclosed location in europe to berlin to attack

specifically jewish institutions. i mean, stella , institutions. i mean, stella, does this just show where we're at? unfortunately, at the moment , is there an enemy within in europe, do you think? >> i don't know if there is. i think it is a very terrifying story. i hate the idea that there are people who could be plotting carry terrorist plotting to carry out terrorist attacks. think we need to be attacks. i think we need to be vigilant sure. extreme times vigilant for sure. extreme times call for extreme vigilance . it call for extreme vigilance. it is very, very disappointing, especially when you're thinking about the fact that a lot of these people, they have come to europe , they have europe, they could have their families, have a very good families, could have a very good future here, a way for from the war torn country is where they're coming from. and and a lot of these people you can imagine them being young and angry ' imagine them being young and angry , looking at the situation angry, looking at the situation in the middle east. and they they are ruining their lives. >> okay. um i mean, this is this is your paper , the telegraph. it is your paper, the telegraph. it is your paper, the telegraph. it is a cracking front page. i must say. but this is the lead one on it. your views. >> well, we have only a few weeks ago, there were reports it

was the express that was reported in the express that there were at least six illegal migrants had come across and migrants who had come across and who were being regarded as terrorist suspects . and this is terrorist suspects. and this is my great fear about this great wave of illegal migration, a huge number of young men from the middle east and north africa are coming ashore on the south coast here, having torn up their documents. we've got no idea , documents. we've got no idea, patrick, where they've come from. and so it's not just a question of stop the small boats out there. it's very possible , i out there. it's very possible, i would say, that we could be seeing . a terror attack in the seeing. a terror attack in the united kingdom. >> okay, now i'm going to just move us along one now, because i'm going to i'm going to and i'm going to i'm going to go and see first this one. sure. see you first on this one. sure. all right. british blokes have see you first on this one. sure. all ri�*givenritish blokes have see you first on this one. sure. all ri�*given the1 blokes have see you first on this one. sure. all ri�*given the great es have see you first on this one. sure. all ri�*given the great honour of been given the great honour of becoming the world becoming the first in the world to a new contraceptive to trial a new contraceptive pill exclusively for men. the pill, which been dubbed the pill, which has been dubbed the holy of pregnancy holy grail of pregnancy prevention, halts firm production by blocking vitamin a supply . and clinical
