trip, enhanced passport checks by french border officials following withdrawal following the uk's withdrawal from the eu increased from the eu also increased processing times. now the queue is about 5 to 10 minutes. the chancellor, jeremy hunt, has announced that the spring budget will be announced on the 6th of march next year, reports are also suggesting downing street could axe inheritance tax and reduce income tax. sir keir starmer has seemingly instructed his frontbench team to finalise their manifesto plans, telling shadow ministers to have their policy proposals ready by mid january . now policy proposals ready by mid january. now in the united states, the michigan supreme court has rejected an attempt to remove the former president , remove the former president, donald trump, from the 2024 presidential ballot . the ruling presidential ballot. the ruling is in contrast to the recent legal ruling in colorado, where mr trump was disqualified from running for president due to his alleged role in the capitol hill

, online, dab+ radio and the tune in app. this is britain's news channel . news channel. >> all right, loads on tonight. i'm starting with this. we have to stand up against the mutilation, indoctrinate and adultification of children . adultification of children. shocking new details revealed that more than 70 children aged just three and four years old, were sent to an nhs transgender service. there were also 145 year olds and 169 six year olds, sending preschoolers to the gender identity development service was in my view, akin to child abuse. what we have here, a potent combination of activist groups who want to push this on children to suit their agenda, children to suit their agenda, child psychologist who i would argue need to see a psychologist themselves, and dodgy parents. yes, i mean it when i say dodgy parents. what kind of parent looks at their three year old and sends them off to a trans

clinic? i'll tell you who. parents who are so desperate for their child to be special, unique and different that they will to lengths to try will go to any lengths to try and make that a reality. parents are desperate their little are desperate for their little ones gifted, to ones to be gifted, to be a genius, to be prodigy when genius, to be a prodigy when they realise that that isn't happening, they're finding another way to make them stand out. are my views. of out. these are just my views. of course, that's what reckon is course, that's what i reckon is going i think that's going on here. i think that's being generous, actually, being quite generous, actually, because i suspect in reality that possibly a munchausen because i suspect in reality théproxy possibly a munchausen because i suspect in reality théproxy situation.) munchausen because i suspect in reality théproxy situation. and nchausen because i suspect in reality théproxy situation. and nchénhs by proxy situation. and the nhs has been that up. has just been lapping that up. i would love to see the correlation between parents who decided to raise their child as gender read them books gender neutral, read them books about questioning about gender questioning youngsters signalled youngsters and virtue signalled on social media being on social media about being a trans ally and then miraculously deciding that their own child was born into the wrong body and carting off a clinic. carting them off to a clinic. when barely out of when they're barely out of nappies aren't to nappies. we aren't going to witness , i think, a tidal wave witness, i think, a tidal wave of lawsuits in the decade ahead, laws suits brought by young adults who feel as though they were mutilated by were medically mutilated by overeager professionals overeager medical professionals when they were too young to make

their own decision. but unfortunately, that also means a tidal wave ruined lives. one tidal wave of ruined lives. one victim and i do class her as a victim and i do class her as a victim who is now detransition told the telegraph that she now feels like a mutilated experiment gone wrong. she was reportedly referred to the gender identity development service by a trans charity , and service by a trans charity, and only saw professionals three times before being referred to the adult clinic. after turning 17. she claims she was referred to adult services. she was prescribed cross—sex hormones and put on the waiting list for and put on the waiting list for a mastectomy. after her second appointment. the best solution that they've come up with so far is to raise the age of referral to seven. that is absolutely ridiculous . to seven. that is absolutely ridiculous. children like different things. boys might like dresses. they might like a barbie doll. girls might like to be a tomboy. you have to let these things run a bit, don't you? does anybody watching this right now think it would have been a good thing for their lives if they were defined by the person they were when they were three years old, or five

years old seven years old? no years old or seven years old? no meaning there. i can barely remember being that age. it is not , kind or woke to not inclusive, kind or woke to want to medically intervene in a child's genitalia or hormones. and we shouldn't normalise that behaviour . and we shouldn't normalise that behaviour. let's get and we shouldn't normalise that behaviour . let's get the behaviour. let's get the thoughts of my panel now. we've got broadcaster and author christine hamilton. we've got pub owner and landlord and fan favourite man of the people, adam brookes, boxer now as well. he this guy, former he does it all. this guy, former labour party adviser matthew lazo. i get stuck lazo. just before i get stuck into this, i do want to go to a comment that was made to us by a spokesperson from the tavistock clinic. they say that the gids, the identity service the gender identity service pathway, psychological pathway, provides psychological assessment, treatment and support families so we are support for families so we are unable to provide figures on those undergone those who have undergone physical . the physical interventions. the outcome identity outcome of gender identity development in younger prepubertal young people is uncertain and so treatment is not provided . most often there not provided. most often there would be a one off discussion with the parents carers to provide support and advice, so

thatis provide support and advice, so that is obviously what they have to say to all of that. christine, i'll start with you on this. do you think it is child abuse to be sending kids as young as three to somewhere where they will be openly told to question their gender, essentially it is child abuse. >> i mean, that is a very broad terms, and it's a very terrifying turn, but it is a form of child abuse. if this was going on a primitive society, going on in a primitive society, we would herald it as child abuse, wouldn't we? just abuse, wouldn't we? i've just had with literally these had a week with literally these age we're talking about age groups. we're talking about age groups. we're talking about a seven year old, five year a seven year old, a five year old and a three year old. they believe in santa claus. they believe in santa claus. they believe tooth fairy as believe in the tooth fairy as they they should pass they should, as they should pass they should, as they should pass the watershed. just sorry . um, the watershed. just sorry. um, they're learning to tie their shoe. they're learning to tie their shoe . shoe nails, learning to shoe. shoe nails, learning to tie their shoelaces . it is tie their shoelaces. it is utterly absurd. and this is coming from the parents? no they don't have any idea what gender is . they don't know what sex is. is. they don't know what sex is. they know that he's a girl and he's a boy, but they don't know what that means. it is absolute ridiculous. if your child aged

whatever or whatever whatever seven, five or whatever said identified as a said they identified as a superhero, would you tell them to go and jump off a building? no, you wouldn't, so you'd just say, well, that's lovely, say, oh well, that's lovely, darling. well, you never know. >> with the state of our education system. >> ridiculous. know, we >> ridiculous. and, you know, we can't sexual can't have legal sexual intercourse until a girl is 16. they can't smoke until they're whatever. we're to whatever. and we're going to outlaw smoking, completely drinking, army, drinking, going in the army, learning drive these learning to drive all these things. wait until you just things. wait until you are just about approaching sensibility and normality . it is. this about approaching sensibility and normality. it is. this is one of the most serious things that can possibly happen to anybody, to and allow it to happen to a child, 3 or 4 and seven is ludicrous. adam do you blame the parents? >> i'm increasingly coming down on the side of parents in this in terms of in terms of it's their fault. in terms of in terms of it's theirfault. i've in terms of in terms of it's their fault. i've got skin in their fault. i've got skin in the game here. >> i've got a four year old daughter and year old daughter and a ten year old daughter. neither know enough in this world to think that they can change their sex. my four year old thinks she's elsa from frozen, for god's sake. so you

know, three and four year olds being referred. it's the parents. they're warped. i believe they're perverts . and i believe they're perverts. and i think they're they are mentally ill to push their children into this . at the end of the day, a this. at the end of the day, a child cannot be charged for a crime, no matter how serious. under ten years of age. how can they be responsible enough to want to change their sex? i think we are. we are going head first into a society where warped ideas and ideologies like this are becoming the norm. because of these activist groups and because of these , you know, and because of these, you know, weirdo liberal, all divs on social media that are pushing this as well . this as well. >> all right, matthew, you know, look, we've got here more than 70 children aged three and four were sent to a controversial nhs transgender mean, is transgender clinic. i mean, is there for that? >> well, think i'm very >> well, look, i think i'm very glad to hear from the in the statement from the tavistock that just that these were just conversations had and conversations that they had and to them to absolutely to for them to absolutely reiterate were no reiterate that there were no there no treatment involved. there was no treatment involved. so me happened

so it seems to me what happened is, is that they were basically sort of had conversations. what do you know, kind of do you do, you know, kind of support style support group style conversation. or support group style con'that's on. or support group style con'that's appropriate or support group style con'that's appropriate is or not that's appropriate is a second question, but at least we're not talking about doing anything or or anything irreversible or, or or medicalizing their decisions. i mean, is that, mean, what worries me is that, you ihad mean, what worries me is that, you i had a i played with you know, i had a i played with a i you know, a doll when i was, you know, 5 or 6 pretty radical in the 19805. or 6 pretty radical in the 1980s. um but, you know, is there anybody that actually this is the most reinforcing of gender stereotypes? the gender stereotypes? it's the most small most conservative with a small c thing imaginable, because you said not actually gender said it's not actually gender neutral, it's people are neutral, it's people who are very gender are saying, very into gender and are saying, you know, oh, my kid's the you know, oh, my kid's in the wrong one. it's actually wrong one. so it's actually a reinforcement kind of all of reinforcement of kind of all of the a sense, the things that in a sense, the liberal left has spent 40 years trying to get away from loads, loads of people might be looking at of that and at a clip of that online and saying, know, i'm way of saying, you know, i'm way out of line that. line there for that. >> i've got no idea what it's like be born the wrong like to be born into the wrong body. pve like to be born into the wrong body. i've got no body. christine. i've got no idea it's like have idea what it's like to have a child who's, you know, three years who is, you know, they years old who is, you know, they they believe, no doubt, they would believe, no doubt, visibly of their

visibly and in all of their actions, in the wrong gender. i mean, do you buy of that? mean, do you buy any of that? >> no, i don't buy any of that. i do buy that some adults feel they're the wrong body. of they're in the wrong body. of course i buy that, but i do they're in the wrong body. of cou buy buy that, but i do they're in the wrong body. of cou buy that. that, but i do they're in the wrong body. of cou buy that. a that, but i do they're in the wrong body. of cou buy that. a three but i do they're in the wrong body. of cou buy that. a three yeari do they're in the wrong body. of cou buy that. a three year old, not buy that. a three year old, they have absolutely no conception whatsoever. it's the woke somehow conception whatsoever. it's the wok> but that's interesting point because what you what you've

done there is kind of gently raise the age question on done there is kind of gently raise now,ige question on done there is kind of gently raise now, what question on done there is kind of gently raise now, what they'restion on done there is kind of gently raise now, what they're saying] this. now, what they're saying at the moment is, look, at the moment is, wow, look, children, age children, children under the age of do i mean of seven shouldn't do i mean seven. good come off. it still. >> so we have got hollywood actors actresses that are actors and actresses that are parading around like parading their kids around like fashion like the fashion accessories, like the chihuahuas paraded around chihuahuas were paraded around in can't be in the 90s, right? they can't be that actors and actresses that many actors and actresses that many actors and actresses that trans or kids that have trans kids or kids that have trans kids or kids that want to be. they are doing it think it signals it because they think it signals virtue and they think it's trendy. and these woke liberal idiots on social media spread it around . debbie hayton even says around. debbie hayton even says on his or her website , right, on his or her website, right, that he would never he she . okay that he would never he she. okay honestly, she she wants i believe it's a he he he says that he cannot change his sex. so i'm going to refer to him as a he that he realises that he cannot change his sex. he had an operation to change his body, but didn't change. but he didn't change. >> i think it's about adults and she does like it was. >> i think it's about social media. >> so the key thing is that

people are old enough to be able to it, adam i, to be able to do it, adam and i, to be able to do it, adam and i, to be able to make decisions. i think we can all agree that. i mean, there's an obvious time, which is the secondary is when it's the secondary school is plus before school age is 11 plus before people having those people should be having those conversations. me the conversations. seems to me the natural time. if people are questioning, you one questioning, you know, one of the of having medical the joys of not having medical transitioning, having transitioning, not having medical transitioning, not having mergreat joys of children is the great joys of children is their vivid, vivid imaginations. >> yes, let them have those imaginations, don't turn imaginations, but don't turn them into. >> there's a there's a few >> but there's a there's a few things wrapped here. this things wrapped up here. if this had right. we had gone unchecked. right. we the we would have had the facts are we would have had activist groups who were perfectly willing to push people who out of nappies to who were just out of nappies to wards, transitioning. okay we clearly ready army clearly had a ready army of parents who felt as though that was okay. we know that there's been schools well, been issues in schools as well, and we know that there's some political pushback on this. you know, i really, really, really am that it wasn't am concerned that if it wasn't for discussions like the ones that have or in other that we have tonight or in other certain of society, if certain quarters of society, if this gone unchecked, that it this had gone unchecked, that it would absolute disaster would be an absolute disaster and catalogue of and it would be a catalogue of lives ruined. i'm just going to go to the inbox quickly. gb

the cameras in the car park leaving and i'm told the police are now actively pursuing, um, the information as to who the suspects might be. and then once we get some arrests, then we'll be able to know what the motives were , because at moment, we were, because at the moment, we don't if it was what don't know if it was what i would call a random incident if there is such a thing or whether there is such a thing or whether there was a political angle to it this stage, we don't know. it at this stage, we don't know. but i've had but over the years i've had numerous , uh, what i would call numerous, uh, what i would call low level incidents notes numerous, uh, what i would call lovthefel incidents notes numerous, uh, what i would call lovthe car ncidents notes numerous, uh, what i would call lovthe car to dents notes numerous, uh, what i would call lovthe car to mock notes numerous, uh, what i would call lovthe car to mock molotov es on the car to mock molotov cocktails on the doorstep to slightly more serious incidents over a couple of run ins with muslims against crusades and obviously , most recently, the obviously, most recently, the man that went on to kill my colleague david amess when he was arrested and interviewed, also admitted he'd come to finchley armed with the intention to harm so sadly, over the years, a lot of the low level stuff has become almost routine. but there's been 2 or 3 quite serious incidents . this quite serious incidents. this being the last and latest one, you've had an incredible series of near misses and an incredible

amount of threats and i mean this with absolute respect. >> mike. right if it takes the next level and you do actually come to some physical harm , um, come to some physical harm, um, the exceptionally the thing that stands out for me is that no one should be surprised about that, because evidence because how much more evidence do that something is do you need that something is cooking it comes to your cooking when it comes to your personal safety? here as you mentioned, all of those things, has that ever made you want to just not be an mp? just go and work in a count somewhere and just get out, out, get out just get out, get out, get out the front line? >> um, yeah. i mean, it depends on the day of the week, you ask me. and certainly, my me. and certainly, uh, my husband thinks it's husband certainly thinks it's not , the job in not worth, um, the job in terms of worry . am i going to come of the worry. am i going to come home at night? am i going to be, you survive day? you know, survive the day? but the know , yes, it is the job, you know, yes, it is a worry. you do get stressed by, you know , having to keep if you you know, having to keep if you like looking over your shoulder but also have to balance that up with, um, the fact that we do a lot of good and dealing with

constituents very constituents can be very rewarding. my inbox is, rewarding. in fact, my inbox is, on whole, incredibly on the whole, incredibly positive warm , um, giving me on the whole, incredibly pilotive warm , um, giving me on the whole, incredibly pilot of warm , um, giving me on the whole, incredibly pilot of support'm , um, giving me on the whole, incredibly pilot of support for um, giving me on the whole, incredibly pilot of support for the , giving me on the whole, incredibly pilot of support for the forving me on the whole, incredibly pilot of support for the for thei me a lot of support for the for the attack. um, but like every job you do sometimes have to weigh up is it worth a risk not just to yourself , but also to your to yourself, but also to your family and important? my to yourself, but also to your family and important ? my staff family and important? my staff is people forget that when someone sends a rude email . i someone sends a rude email. i mean, i actually got an email yesterday saying i'm obviously the kind of person that deserves to be burnt , the kind of person that deserves to be burnt, but what kind of person sends that? but it's my staff that it's my staff that see that it's my staff that see that it's my staff that see that it's my staff that answer the phone to abusive people. it's my staff that answer door to abusive that answer the door to abusive people people that people and people forget that they should not have to put up with this either. >> something out to me >> something stands out to me about your constituency, mike. i used to live right near there. actually as well. um, it is an incredibly heavily populated area with jewish community and obviously there have been marked , uh, issues at the moment when it comes to israel, uh, , uh, issues at the moment when it comes to israel , uh, gaza, it comes to israel, uh, gaza, etc. taking place. have you seen

any increase in hate when it comes to that? do you think that makes you more of a target when you're representing one of the more densely populated jewish areas in the country? how do you feel about that ? feel about that? >> well, certainly the inbox is incredibly polarised , and incredibly polarised, and because of my support for israel , then clearly i get tired as a baby killer, etc, etc. um, the man who went on to kill david amess did describe himself as a soldier of islamic state. and of course the muslim kc crusades , course the muslim kc crusades, um, as a group had a long history of target ing people who didn't support , if you like, an didn't support, if you like, an islamic caliphate. so there's clearly an angle there. i can't say that the most recent instance on christmas eve is unkedin instance on christmas eve is linked in that way. um, but obviously i know that my constituency , um, is constantly constituency, um, is constantly at a state of alert and many of my jewish friends . um, have

my jewish friends. um, have never felt more tense, never felt more afraid. and i visit, um, all of the faith communities in my patch and only the jewish community has to have, um, you know, has to guards as to know, has to have guards as to have panic buttons, has to have shutters. only shutters. yeah. it's only the jewish to have jewish schools that have to have security . i know no other faith . security. i know no other faith. and so clearly the level of tension . then is a direct result tension. then is a direct result of what's going on elsewhere in the world. and whatever people's views on israel, that should not be allowed, um, to a poison our democratic democrat debate. but it certainly shouldn't be allowed to be used to target the uk's jewish community. now >> indeed, i actually did attend . and again, i want to emphasise there is no evidence to say at there is no evidence to say at the moment that the incident that's happened at mike's office is in any way linked to, uh, the israel palestine situation . or israel palestine situation. or anything like that. that's, that's there's no evidence to suggest that at the moment. i did attend a protest outside an

mps office in bethnal green , mps office in bethnal green, where that particular labour mp actually was not voting for a ceasefire and people mobbed up and turned up outside. they obviously weren't in because at that time of night. but i couldn't help but feel as though i was witnessing their literally the visible attempt to intimidate a member of parliament into voting, into voting the way that that group of people wanted them to vote. do you think we're seeing more of that? so sadly, i think that it's not just mps offices. >> we're seeing it outside shops. um, you know, zara have been targeted, um, where people disagree with you . um, in the disagree with you. um, in the past, you had a healthy disagreement and then just agreed to disagree. now it's starting to become much more physical, much more intimidatory to ensure that you toe the line . to ensure that you toe the line. um, personally, i think it can be counter productive the more people try and intimidate me into a particular stance , the into a particular stance, the more i'll try and dig my heels in and stick to my own beliefs .

in and stick to my own beliefs. um, but we're definitely seeing a deterioration in the inbox, and we're certainly seeing a deterioration in the style of demonstration to intimidate people, to change their minds and i think that is something we need to a grip on when need to get a grip on when what's happened face what's happened with your face to face surgeries, you know, if you're getting fake molotov cocktails on your doorstep and your office has been burnt down, for sake, what does for goodness sake, what does that mean for the way that you interact with the public? >> do you want a police officer in your reception? 24 over seven. where are you at with all of that? >> um, no . so i only do and only >> um, no. so i only do and only ever have done because it was mrs. thatcher's constituency. so we are kind of used to it for security . um, we've always done security. um, we've always done appointments only. we now have enhanced that, that people have to prove their constituent by either being on the electoral roll or if they say, i've just moved into the area, well, they must lease or a rent must have a lease or a rent book. um, we've installed, um, what, like a tiger trap door. so if we do open the door, we've got a second barrier. have

got a second barrier. we have panic so that's the panic buttons. um, so that's the physical of being in the physical side of being in the office. but i also have a i must be about 40 year old mobile home that i took around and park on street corners and just let people come and talk to me . um, people come and talk to me. um, we scaled that back . but now if we scaled that back. but now if i am on the pavement and i'll wear a stab vest, if i do my what i call supermarket surgeries, where i stand in the door supermarket , um, door of a supermarket, um, sometimes come and talk door of a supermarket, um, so meimes come and talk door of a supermarket, um, so me .nes come and talk door of a supermarket, um, so me . funnily come and talk door of a supermarket, um, so me . funnily enough,�* and talk door of a supermarket, um, so me . funnily enough, sometimes to me. funnily enough, sometimes do ask where do people ask me where the tomatoes basically tomatoes are? um, but basically i wear a stab vest. um, and it's also available for my staff who are . are. >> it's absolutely shocking. >> it's absolutely shocking. >> it's absolutely shocking. >> i don't want a police officer . i wouldn't want a police officer because it changes that dynamic. the um, the fact that our politicians are accessible, you know, i kind of advice surgeries are almost unique. not many countries have our style of accessibility , and i'd hate to accessibility, and i'd hate to see that taken away . and i see that taken away. and i certainly wouldn't want a police officer next to me because it changes dynamic. we just changes the dynamic. we just have and take have to be sensible and take extra sadly ,

extra precautions. and sadly, that carry its burden on my that does carry its burden on my staff, especially and on myself and my colleagues. well . mike, and my colleagues. well. mike, can i just say thank you very much for coming on the show? >> i really do appreciate it. and i do hope to talk to you again very, very soon. and obviously, i wish you all the very best. your family very best. you and your family and take care and stay safe. that's mike frayer there, who is a conservative mp and a spokesperson for the metropolitan police has said this. they said an investigation is ongoing a fire in is ongoing following a fire in a shed constituency office shed at the constituency office of mike freer in north of mp mike freer in north finchley . police were called on finchley. police were called on sunday the 24th of december by the london fire brigade following a fire at the office. there of any there were no reports of any injuries the fire was put injuries and the fire was put out. the fire is being treated as arson. continue to as arson. officers continue to pursue of lines of pursue a number of lines of inquiry who inquiry to establish who was responsible the responsible of the motive of the incident. this has included speaking residents and speaking to local residents and securing analysing cctv . tv securing and analysing cctv. tv gb views at gb news. com when people say politicians are paid

too much and there is a case for that, there is a case for that very generous, expensive scheme, gets a vote on their own pay rise. all of that stuff. i'm aware that. but you also look aware of that. but you also look at the of things that they at the kind of things that they do up to, and do open themselves up to, and the would want to the idea that you would want to go of work where you go into a line of work where you get grand a year, which get paid 90 grand a year, which sounds initially, you sounds great initially, but you have a stab vest have to wear a stab vest when you're out in public. i'm not sure that that really worth you're out in public. i'm not suibulial that really worth you're out in public. i'm not suibulial that on. rally worth you're out in public. i'm not suibulial that on.�*ally is rth it, but moving on. this is another incredibly emotive issue. that issue. now it emerges that hospital and visitors hospital patients and visitors paid a shocking £146 million in car park charges last year, even though the tories promised to scrap those charges . so should scrap those charges. so should we be forced to pay for parking at nhs hospitals? you're going there to visit someone who is sick or dying . there to visit someone who is sick or dying. is it a tax on that criminal barrister ? former that criminal barrister? former tory mp jerry hayes goes head to head with junior doctor bashar mukherjee. disagree in a mukherjee. they disagree in a big way on this, so it should be lively. that, let's lively. but before that, let's continue the extra special christmas we've been christmas game that we've been playing the show tonight, playing on the show tonight, which gb news star is which popular gb news star is this on your screens? you can

conservative manifesto pledged to end the unfair charges. so figures from nhs england show that hospital patients and visitors paid a whopping . £146 visitors paid a whopping. £146 million for car parking last yean million for car parking last year, the equivalent of 400 grand spent in hospital car parks. every single day. tonight we are asking should we still be shelling out for parking in hospital car parks? i'm joined now by criminal barrister and former conservative mp jerry hayes, who i understand might have had a bit of a bad experience this recently, experience with this recently, and bashir experience with this recently, and to bashir experience with this recently, and to basthis. thank mukherjee to debate this. thank you very um, look, you very, very much. um, look, jerry , i'll start with you. jerry, i'll start with you. what's on with you? should what's gone on with you? should we scrapping hospital parking we be scrapping hospital parking charges? entirely. charges? not entirely. >> £146 million. gone up by 50% since, um, they came back in after covid. i think last march. uh, and the government says, look, our manifesto pledges . look, our manifesto pledges. we've, we've made sure that those people most in need don't have to pay. >> however £46 million is being

paid by low paid hospital staff. >> i think that is wrong. >> i think that is wrong. >> £46 million. you've got a health budget. >> i know it's always under pressure and it always will be. >> whoever's in power is 182 billion. >> let's get this in perspective. >> let's make sure that there are no charges for those people on the lowest pay scales that who work for the nhs . who work for the nhs. >> so you would so you would scrap the charges for the lowest paid nhs workers. but not members of the public, but not members of the public, but not members of the public. just so we're clear, jerry movements, the government says i don't know how true it is. >> it's just the press release which has come out as a result >> it's just the press release withe has come out as a result >> it's just the press release withe storyome out as a result >> it's just the press release withe story in e out as a result >> it's just the press release withe story in the it as a result >> it's just the press release withe story in the times result >> it's just the press release withe story in the times and lt of the story in the times and the daily mail. >> who nicked off the times, >> who nicked it off the times, uh, that. uh, is that. >> yeah. yeah. >> yeah. yeah. >> we sure those >> we make sure that those people are having regular people who are having regular cancer treatment, those people are treatment, are having outpatient treatment, those who long tum those people who need long tum care . yeah. care. yeah. >> they don't have to pay . and >> they don't have to pay. and if true, i'm happy with if that's true, i'm happy with that. i would like it all to be

free. but it's not. and some money being made. but £146 million. >> not all of that goes to the health because there are health service because there are third parties actually run . third parties who actually run. the car park. >> i'd like to know how much the health service is it? >> this is the other thing. now, bashan >> this is the other thing. now, bashar, i'll turn to you on this. when somebody finds out that a relative has just had a heart they are in heart attack or they are in intensive no intensive care, you've got no idea going to idea how long they're going to be in there for. you go. you race the hospital, park race to the hospital, you park your there and you leg it your car there and you leg it in. should anyone be in. why should anyone be thinking in the back their thinking in the back of their mind? have got enough to money mind? have i got enough to money pay mind? have i got enough to money pay for this parking space? russia think in today's day russia i think in today's day and age, if you can afford a car which costs about three and a half grand average for half grand on average for a person to run just a car , i person to run just a car, i think a couple of pounds towards , uh, parking fees is really not a lot to ask. >> and , and, you know, the >> and, and, you know, the numbers are being heightened and, and just for kind of shock value rather, but actually they're not that much actually they're not that much actually they're not that much actually they're not even higher as compared to 2019 pre—pandemic. i

just feel like the, the shock value is being created because maybe our, our population got too used to getting everything free during the pandemic. and now that's slowly being retracted. and i think that's why the reaction as it is , i why the reaction as it is, i mean, do you know how much it would park at a hospital would cost to park at a hospital for, say, seven hours? >> the question really should be, um, well, no , that's the be, um, well, no, that's the question. the question i'm asking is how much does it cost to park up for seven hours? it's ten. it's ten quick. >> i don't know what hospital. there different hospitals there are different hospitals around that are around the country that are charging so charging different amounts. so i couldn't exactly how couldn't tell you exactly how how would for seven. how much it would be for seven. information is very information is out there is very transparent. you know, exactly what you're going in for when you're going park. >> that's not >> well, well, that's not necessarily true. you see. so over seven hours at wythenshawe hosphal over seven hours at wythenshawe hospital, for example, was hospital, for example, which was my i was my local hospital when i was growing up. it's a big hospital would a relative , would be £15. so if a relative, you get a phone call and a relative is in there, it's and they've got to have an urgent

operation. i mean you're in there seven hours, there for over seven hours, right. you then have to pay right. and you then have to pay £15 for that day. and then if you want to go and see him the next day and the next day and the next day. jerry, i just feel as you look as though this is when you look at the amount of wastage that there is in the nhs. yeah. why aren't patients and aren't why should patients and worried to pay worried loved ones have to pay this money? this amount of money? >> i think they should. >> i don't think they should. >> i don't think they should. >> i don't think they should. >> i really mean i was >> i really don't i mean i was in waiting for 13 hours. in a&e waiting for 13 hours. >> i don't begrudge that at all because most people who moan about it realise that about it don't realise that they're much sicker people coming back we don't coming around the back we don't actually see. >> but my um, know, we >> but my wife, um, you know, we can afford it, but she would have had to pay £18, um, for 13 hours. >> um, again , low paid workers >> um, again, low paid workers in the national health service. >> i mean, going back to what bashar was saying, uh, it is expensive to park, and it's not a couple of quid if it was a couple of quid, there'd be no problem whatsoever. people on the lowest pay may be having to pay the lowest pay may be having to pay £10 a week a day. >> now, is not right in the

>> now, that is not right in the middle of a cost of living crisis . crisis. >> bashar, would you at least think staff should get free think that staff should get free parking ? parking? >> it would be great if staff could get free parking. but we have to be realistic here. i understand what you're saying about £10 a day, but i don't think it applies for staff. we actually , when i was working in actually, when i was working in royal derby hospital, for instance, we actually got a monthly sort of car parking fee, um, thing that actually made it not so expensive day to day. and actually it made me , um, then actually it made me, um, then find other ways to get into work which are more eco friendly and actually worked out overall, more economic for me as well. i started using the public transport i've recently moved to london and i exclusively use the pubuc london and i exclusively use the public transport i've worked in a&e and had to do really late shifts and actually there are things available which support staff if they need to leave home late at night. there are staff, um, taxis , which the trust pays um, taxis, which the trust pays for. so there are ways that the

trusts are trying to support staff as well . and i just think staff as well. and i just think that, you know , i'm happy to pay that, you know, i'm happy to pay that, you know, i'm happy to pay that much because i know that's very generous of you. >> look, it's very it's very generous of you , you know, to generous of you, you know, to say that. and that's , that's say that. and that's, that's fair enough. that's your view . fair enough. that's your view. right. but, jerry, i would say to people like, say my grandmother's age, it's in her mid 80s, she's paid tax all her life. she's paid into the nhs all her life. she wants to go and visit somebody who's a lifelong friend of hers, who is also in her mid 80s, who's, say in a hospital . why the flipping in a hospital. why the flipping heckis in a hospital. why the flipping heck is my grandma paying £15 to go park to see someone? i'm go and park to see someone? i'm sorry, it's just, um . and if sorry, it's just, um. and if grandma, if someone wanted routine care at the nhs, now is every chance you waiting six months for that? i mean, what are we paying for? agree, are we paying for? i agree, i entirely agree . entirely agree. >> i think the government's got to look at this again. they will say matter for the health say it's a matter for the health service, but like know service, but i'd like to know how much middlemen get. i'd how much the middlemen get. i'd like how the people like to know how much the people who get. who run the car parks get. what's mark up?

who run the car parks get. wh mm mark up? who run the car parks get. wh mm hmm.|ark up? who run the car parks get. wh mm hmm. well,p? who run the car parks get. wh mm hmm. well, this is this is >> mm hmm. well, this is this is this is the other important thing absolutely to know thing we absolutely need to know that. need to drill down that. and we need to drill down on that because if it is all going the nhs, the going to the nhs, that's the kind that maybe some kind of pill that maybe some people to swallow. kind of pill that maybe some pe0|ite to swallow. kind of pill that maybe some pe0|it isn't to swallow. kind of pill that maybe some pe0|it isn't all to swallow. kind of pill that maybe some pe0|it isn't all going swallow. kind of pill that maybe some pe0|it isn't all going t01allow. kind of pill that maybe some pe0|it isn't all going to thew. but it isn't all going to the nhs, that's the problem. >> of course it's not. it's the capha >> of course it's not. it's the capita or serco or some ghastly organisation who run the prison service. yeah i mean, i know i'm not here to defend themselves obviously, but but yes. >> um , bashar, would you, would >> um, bashar, would you, would you be at least willing to maybe put a cap on it, you know, is enough now when comes put a cap on it, you know, is en hospital now when comes put a cap on it, you know, is en hospital parking w when comes put a cap on it, you know, is en hospital parking charges, comes put a cap on it, you know, is en hospital parking charges, we»mes to hospital parking charges, we don't them going up don't want to see them going up anymore, we? there anymore, do we? is there any justification do justification for it, do you think? >> i think there needs to be a reality because we reality check because when we look numbers, we're look at the numbers, we're looking at 2019. we paid about we about 46 million we were paying about 46 million for, uh, staff to be paying. and now now and we were actually paying. sorry. we're currently paying paying. sorry. we're currently paying 46 million, but actually in 2019, the staff were paying about 90 million. it seems like the numbers have really gone up

because you're comparing with the free services and the slow mark—up that's been going on in the last couple of years. but actually, we're still paying less than what were paying in less than what we were paying in 2019, think something 2019, which i think is something we about . um, we should be positive about. um, we should be positive about. um, we expect things to we can't always expect things to be free, especially in the current climate. if we want the nhs survive, then we have to nhs to survive, then we have to be willing to, you know , put be willing to, you know, put back some of that money and i understand what what you're saying, sir, about, you know, the middle man making the money. but unfortunately, at point but unfortunately, at this point in there is much in time, there there is not much opfions in time, there there is not much options , uh, to not options available, uh, to not have that happen, essentially. but a lot of the money does go back into maintaining the staff, keeping the staff parking and whatever's left over. actually, a lot of it goes into patient services. well there we go. >> both. well, yeah, i know it's difficult to know exactly how much, isn't it. but these things are going to have to be drilled down. and actually, i'll be honest with you, i feel incredibly about incredibly passionately about this. i'm going to this. right. and i'm going to continue into this and

continue to look into this and hopefully course of the hopefully over the course of the week into next week, can week and into next week, i can get answers about, get some of these answers about, you amount of you know, the amount of middlemen that car parking firms you know, the amount of mid(are1en that car parking firms you know, the amount of mid(are1en th'paid' parking firms you know, the amount of mid(are1en th'paid' pathis] firms that are being paid for this and, what, what level of and, and what, what level of this money actually into this money actually goes into making the nhs. making us all better in the nhs. but you, can i just say but both of you, can i just say thank you very for coming thank you very much for coming on. chat. that criminal on. great chat. that criminal barrister, jerry barrister, former tory mp jerry hayes, bashir hayes, junior doctor bashir mukherji. of mukherji. there are loads of emails doctors as emails on this junior doctors as it bleating not it says here, bleating about not being um but being paid enough. um but they're happy for parking charges as well. for the poorest in society . there's a heck of a in society. there's a heck of a lot of that day. factory workers in society. there's a heck of a lot of 1park. ay. factory workers in society. there's a heck of a lot of 1park. i'mzactory workers in society. there's a heck of a lot of 1park. i'm not)ry workers in society. there's a heck of a lot of 1park. i'm not quite rkers in society. there's a heck of a lot of 1park. i'm not quite sure. pay to park. i'm not quite sure. johnny. possibly not. depends on the . see, i'm the factory. see, i'm a registered nurse in an acute hospital in a area. the hospital in a rural area. the chartered parking site is chartered parking on site is deducted source from my deducted at source from my salary. no alternate salary. i have no alternate means of travel. our fees have risen twice in the past year. lucy. good grief. but this is it. find it genuinely, morally it. i find it genuinely, morally unconscionable. and you at unconscionable. and you look at the amount the nhs unconscionable. and you look at th

get a royal funeral? >> i think so because she is the mother of two of our princesses. she's currently performing quite an important duty , which is an important duty, which is keeping an eye on prince andrew, and they have this extraordinary arrangement where they're obviously divorced, but they live but they're not live together, but they're not back actually, you back together. but actually, you know, for all the mis mistakes andrew's made in terms of his car crash interview , and perhaps car crash interview, and perhaps the public is not entirely behind him. you know, he is at an incredibly low ebb at the moment. according to a lot of his friends. and she's performing a very important duty of after him and of sort of looking after him and keeping eye on him. and you keeping an eye on him. and you know, yeah, she's, know, know, yeah, she's, you know, the mother princesses mother to two of our princesses who fond of and have who were very fond of and have done wrong . think she done nothing wrong. i think she deserves it. >> and apparently it was granted to her by our late queen so that she would be permitted a saint george's chapel, windsor funeral . so i suppose if it is what our late queen wanted, then you know we it . yeah totally. we should do it. yeah totally. >> and the queen had a lot of

affection for fergie, you know , affection for fergie, you know, it was it was widely known that it was it was widely known that it was it was widely known that it was prince philip who kept her very far away from the royal fold while he was alive. and after died , uh, the queen after he died, uh, the queen bought her slowly back in more and and more. and she's and more and more. and she's going be buried a mile away going to be buried a mile away very strategically. one mile away from prince philip , um, at away from prince philip, um, at the frogmore mausoleum . um, um, the frogmore mausoleum. um, um, so at least the queen very wisely strategic . she made sure wisely strategic. she made sure she won't accidentally end up at saint george's chapel, windsor, where she and prince philip are buried. >> so she will be a mile away from prince philip. i quite like that little touch. um which is where he likes her. >> where he liked her when he was alive. quite >> i don't, to be honest with you. i don't see that changing. um, but , uh, you. i don't see that changing. um, but, uh, and there are some interesting things that have come out about prince harry as well. and him supposedly cutting a actor out of his life a crown. actor out of his life and out of his friend group. what's gone on here? >> yeah. so, so dominic west, who plays prince charles in the

crown in the current series of the crown, went on an expedition with prince harry to the south pole back in 2014. so two years before he met meghan and, uh, dominic west sort of picked him up in a press conference at the time and said, oh, he was so great. he was this amazing guy to have around. and when we finished, we had a two day bender and we drank champagne through a prosthetic limb because was for walking with because it was for walking with the wounded. and harry took great offence to this, but the hilarious thing is that dominic west was bigging up harry and portraying as this great portraying him as this great jack lad. one of the team , jack the lad. one of the team, but just just in their sort of supped but just just in their sort of slipped into two moments that maybe harry wouldn't think , you maybe harry wouldn't think, you know, was perfect for his pr, which is that he had a two day bender and he drank champagne from a prosthetic limb. um, but harry cut off dominic harry completely cut off dominic west. what's so interesting west. and what's so interesting about this we know harry now about this is we know harry now has a habit of people has a habit of cutting people off, has done ever since off, and he has done ever since he met meghan. was two

he met meghan. but this was two years he met her, and he years before he met her, and he completely and cut off completely and utterly cut off dominic more dominic west. and then more importantly anyone importantly, cut off anyone around dominic west who he knew, any mutual friend . so it was any mutual friend. so it was complete paranoia and i think really over the top reaction . really over the top reaction. >> yeah, mean, ironically, the >> yeah, i mean, ironically, the idea of prince harry going on a two day bender and drinking champagne out of a prosthetic leg probably very for leg is probably very good for his . his pr. >> it was really good for >> yeah, it was really good for his and that's dominic >> yeah, it was really good for his mentioned�*s dominic >> yeah, it was really good for his mentioned it, dominic >> yeah, it was really good for his mentioned it, because nic >> yeah, it was really good for his mentioned it, because he west mentioned it, because he was the time, harry's image was at the time, harry's image was at the time, harry's image was we was all about. remember, we loved him being the fun joker. the joke of the pack, the laid back cool guy. and it was back cool army guy. and it was actually really good. the whole nafion actually really good. the whole nation was behind him. the new harry that cuts people off, gets offended, anything offended, doesn't do anything wrong. we're not so wrong. you know we're not so fond of. so i think dominic west did him a favour. >> yeah, i, i absolutely agree with you. look, thank you very, very much, charlotte. short and sweet. but we'll again very sweet. but we'll chat again very soon. had wonderful soon. i hope you had a wonderful christmas, hope christmas, by the way, and hope to again very, very to see you again very, very soon. griffiths, soon. charlotte griffiths, their editor at large mail editor at large at the mail on sunday, it sunday, very plugged in when it comes all royal at

the east coast main line between london and scotland were told not to travel, and at airports, thousands of travellers experienced delays as flights were grounded. multiple weather warnings remain in place across the rest of the uk, but northern scotland is the most badly hit and today ferry passengers were facing delays of up to three hours at the port of dover due to french police going sick , and to french police going sick, and there was increased demand as well as people tried to get away for a post—christmas trip. there are no queues now. officials are saying border checks taking saying border checks are taking around 5 to minutes. the around 5 to 10 minutes. the chancellor, jeremy hunt, announced the spring budget will be announced on the 6th of march next year, reports are also suggesting downing street could axe inheritance tax and reduce income tax . sir keir starmer has income tax. sir keir starmer has seemingly instructed his frontbench team to finalise their manifest plans, telling shadow ministers to have their proposals ready by mid—january . proposals ready by mid—january. now there are zero migrant

crossings over the christmas period. for the first time since current records began, the foreign secretary james cleverly, tweeting that in the last hour, saying no crossings took place across the english channel on christmas eve , channel on christmas eve, christmas day or boxing day this yeah christmas day or boxing day this year. that's the first time since 2018 it means they've now been ten consecutive days without any arrivals recorded without any arrivals recorded with poor weather conditions being a contributory factor. now in france , the former president in france, the former president of the european commission and the architect of the euro, jacques delors, has died at the age of 98. monsieur delors was a leading figure on the french political left during the 1980s, and was perhaps best known in britain for his feisty relationship with the then prime minister, margaret thatcher, france's president emmanuel macron has today honoured his fellow politician, saying he'd been a tireless architect of our europe . and the number of people

europe. and the number of people shopping in high street sales across the uk was down on boxing day by more than 20. figures from the mri software company said that footfall was up before 3:00 in the afternoon, but significantly lower across the day as a whole. the group said the only location to experience an overall rise in footfall was is central london. that's the news on gb news across the uk on tv in your car, on digital radio and on your smart speaker. this is britain's news channel . is britain's news channel. >> it is now crystal clear that keir starmer does not have a plan to tackle illegal immigration. the only thing he knows for sure is that he'd scrap the rwanda scheme. that's the only plan scrap. the only thing that might just about act as a deterrent. today's line is that considering offshore that he's considering offshore processing , but they haven't processing, but they haven't made any progress with that yet.

in fact, they're looking at, quote, any plan that works well, their job quote, any plan that works well, theirjob should be to come up with a plan that works, shouldn't it? he's had years to do this and now we are months away from general election. away from a general election. in away from a general election. in a the party a weird twist, the labour party actually denied in the actually denied reports in the times that have times that they have any detailed that's where detailed plans. so that's where we now. is it labour we are now. is it labour flirting with the eu over a migrant quota that could see us take more illegal immigrants than we do now? labour saying they'll labour than we do now? labour saying they'll they labour than we do now? labour saying they'll they might labour than we do now? labour saying they'll they might process)ur than we do now? labour saying they'll they might process people saying they might process people offshore, they'll offshore, labour saying they'll process quicker not process claims quicker but not really us how labour is really telling us how labour is saying they'll smash the gangs but really telling us how. but not really telling us how. and labour now denying that they've any detailed plan they've got any detailed plan laid , is reportedly thinking laid, is reportedly thinking of allowing for allowing people to apply for refugee status before they get to the uk so they don't have to take a trip across the channel surely that just gives them two bites at the great british cherry, no cherry, there is basically no point saying that they'll process quicker because process claims quicker because that's way of saying that's another way of saying that's another way of saying that wave people that's another way of saying that in wave people that's another way of saying that in my wave people that's another way of saying that in my view; people that's another way of saying that in my view . people that's another way of saying that in my view . andile that's another way of saying that in my view . and when it through. in my view. and when it comes offshore processing, comes to offshore processing, just immediate just look at the immediate reaction from the radical reaction now from the radical

left momentum brigade. they left wing momentum brigade. they said that starmer's plans would be, disturbing quote, be, quote, disturbing and quote, instead of aping inhumane tory policies like offshoring asylum seekers, keir starmer should be standing up for progressive values and migrants rights . now, values and migrants rights. now, if starmer tries to implement any of this, he will get massive pushback from the left of his party. so much so that i don't honestly see him putting any of this in his manifesto. so ahead of every single of the election, every single person see how ridiculous person can see how ridiculous the migrant crisis is. ricky gervais took the mickey big time in his latest stand set, and in his latest stand up set, and when you hear the laughter in this clip, you will realise that ordinary people have genuinely had enough of this. it is just a small fringe group of very loud radicals who don't think like the rest of us. i think we can play the rest of us. i think we can play a ricky gervais clip at some point soon. if starmer tries to implement any of this, he will get massive pushback from party. from the left of the party. so much so, really, really , much so, i really, really, really don't see any of this actually coming to fruition.

certainly not anytime soon. people who don't want to take radical action on the migrant crisis should be treated , i crisis should be treated, i think, like a complete and utter laughing stock, that they really are the concern . natives have are the concern. natives have let crisis happen on their let this crisis happen on their watch. they have allowed britain to become el dorado for illegal immigrants illegal migration immigrants and illegal migration mecca. deserve mecca. they do deserve an absolute kicking for that. but seriously though, labour appears to absolutely no plan at to have absolutely no plan at all. and any plan they do have will receive massive pushback from their base. i don't think starmer wants that kind of controversy. makes me controversy. and that makes me wonder, keir starmer wonder, does keir starmer actually stop the boats? actually want to stop the boats? but to respond to all of this now i'm joined again by broadcaster and author christine hamilton, and landlord hamilton, pub owner and landlord adam labour adam brooks and former labour party matthew lazo. party adviser matthew lazo. christine, do you think keir starmer actually really does want to stop the boats? >> well, if he's got any sense, he'll want to try and stop the boats because it's what people want it may not be want him to do. it may not be people's number one concern, which be economic which tends to be economic issues, but as the election

approaches, to come up. approaches, he's got to come up. it's very easy for it's been very easy to for starmer hitherto . he doesn't starmer hitherto. he doesn't have to put his money where his mouth as the election mouth is. but as the election approaches, to have approaches, he's going to have to positive plans to come up with positive plans for these various issues . for all these various issues. and if he doesn't come up with something convinces people something that convinces people which to me, what he needs to come up and do is saying we're going to get out of the echr et cetera, et cetera. we don't cetera, et cetera. if we don't divorce ourselves from all these european we european institutions, we haven't in hell haven't got a hope in hell of controlling let's take. controlling it. let's just take. he's that. he's not going to do that. >> take this. ricky >> let's just take this. ricky gervais clip. so ricky gervais was doing his stand up routine. it's of it's available online, of course. was a course. and this was was a big part of it. him on part of it. him teeing off on the illegal lunacy. the illegal migration lunacy. well i woke now and can well i am woke now and i can prove it. >> you go. i love illegal >> there you go. i love illegal immigrants. yeah sue me now, i sometimes i go down to dover for the day right . and i, i look out the day right. and i, i look out right look , look for a boat right and look, look for a boat and i see a dinghy with about 60 of and i go over it right. of them. and i go over it right. and i pull them in, i pull them in to shore and i go, women and children. first they there

children. first they go, there are children . just are no women and children. just you it just come you lads. is it just come on, lads , lads . if you lads. is it just come on, lads , lads. if i go down lads, go lads. if i go down there one day and there's no boat, i am absolutely gutted. i don't know, i just sort of wander into town and i. i stand by the traffic lights and i wait for a big lorry to pull up right. and i look underneath and there's a lad sort of clutching like that , and i go, where are like that, and i go, where are you headed? and he goes, gary lineker's just lineker's house. i go, it's just down . down there. >> matthew, that's the reality that the vast majority of people think that the illegal migration crisis is a complete and utter laughing stock. but keir starmer doesn't have a plan. does he know? >> he absolutely has a plan? >> he absolutely has a plan? >> what is the plan? >> what is the plan? >> well, the plan is to smash the gangs. by by your the gangs. how? by the by your new border police force. new cross border police force. um, by terrorism um, and by using terrorism legislation which the tories have ample opportunity to do and they've do it so that they've refused to do it so that you use the anti—terror you can use the anti—terror laws, they the laws, which means they give the police extra powers, and the police extra powers, um, and the courts whose police? >> the government is new >> the government is the new police do that? police force going to do that? the one doesn't do. the current one doesn't do. >> the board. it's not

>> it's not the board. it's not a border it's a police a border force. it's a police force to work in europe a border force. it's a police forsmashrork in europe a border force. it's a police forsmash the in europe a border force. it's a police forsmash the gangs in europe a border force. it's a police forsmash the gangs source, ie to smash the gangs at source, which there has been, you know, some countries have had some european countries have had success part success and it's been part of that. it's also process the that. it's also to process the complaints. say that complaints. you say that processing the claims, the people who failed the the people who failed on the on the on dont on this, the people who don't have are the tories, the have a plan are the tories, the tories have let the claims pile up it doesn't up and you say that it doesn't matter they're processed matter whether they're processed for i couldn't disagree more because other day because if we saw the other day we under the current we laughed is under the current laws, can here and laws, anyone can come here and stay basically. >> so when says they're not >> so when he says they're not being, says when, no. so being, when he says when, no. so when says going to when he says he's going to prosecute, we can't deport anyone moment. anyone anywhere at the moment. >> some people. we >> we do deport some people. we don't. yes, very less than don't. some yes, very less than 1. no it's 1. having processed in last year. in the last year. >> that people can't >> but decide that people can't stay we bother to stay and then we don't bother to find send them find them. and send them home. well, exactly. >> enforcement very >> and enforcement is very important. can i just say on this processing thing this offshore processing thing though, directly to that. respond directly to that. i mean, of all, he doesn't mean, first of all, he doesn't listen to what momentum say. momentum finished, is momentum are finished, which is the like the corbynite ginger group like jeremy corbyn. they should retire the retire gracefully from the scene. he suggested is scene. um, what he suggested is or suggested is that or has been suggested is that there are ways process there are ways you can process people which

people offshore more, which are going british going to be respected by british by problem by british courts. the problem with the rwanda plan is it's we are going to send are basically going to send people rwanda be processed. >> where say that was >> where did you say that was going to happen? >> one of the >> matthew? well, one of the places it might happen is albania. could in albania. it could happen in tunisia. happen morocco. tunisia got significant >> tunisia has got significant human issues, their human rights issues, but their people done by the people wouldn't be done by the tunisian judges, by done by british again, the >> that's again, that's the difference. the rwanda >> that's again, that's the differyit'se. the rwanda >> that's again, that's the differyit's saying the rwanda >> that's again, that's the differyit's saying we the rwanda >> that's again, that's the differyit's saying we shunte rwanda plan, it's saying we shunt everybody they go everybody to rwanda and they go under rwandan jurisdiction under the plan, the the european plan, the observation under the observation under the observation an international observation of an international cohort of people. >> it's not just rwandan >> so it's not just rwandan judges. the fact is what we're going to end up seeing, right. is labour proposing policy and is labour proposing a policy and everyone with it everyone going along with it because labour and it must because it's labour and it must because it's labour and it must be whereas the be kind and fair, whereas the tories anything and they're tories do anything and they're going well. mean, there going to get well. i mean, there may be i mean maybe, maybe only labour will with labour will get away with it, but it won't labour will get away with it, butthe it won't labour will get away with it, butthe rwanda it won't labour will get away with it, butthe rwanda plan it won't labour will get away with it, butthe rwanda plan because just be the rwanda plan because just like the italians going to be the rwanda plan because just lik

all of this very, very soon. some fantastic guests in the inbox. but first, the uk has hailed as a leader in hailed as a world leader in tackling climate change. after we the first g20 we became what the first g20 nafions we became what the first g20 nations to halve carbon emissions have we now done emissions but have we now done enough? and should other countries start pulling their weight? environmentalists stanley ukip stanley johnson takes on ukip leader hamilton in what leader neil hamilton in what promises to be a

weekend at 3 pm. on gb news the people's channel, britain's news channel. people's channel, britain's news channel . well all britain has

channel. well all britain has become one of the first major countries to halve its carbon emissions. >> that's according to new data released this week. the rapid pace of uk environmental progress means that our output is now below . 320 progress means that our output is now below. 320 million tonnes, less than half of the 652 million tonnes of our 1970s peak, when it comes to co2, this is in spite of britain now having a far larger population than 50 years ago, and an economy more than twice the size. i really don't think that can be understated with such great news, though. do we now need to continue supporting green energy plans? this comes as sadiq khan has reportedly hired masked people to guard ulez cameras . okay, so is this ulez cameras. okay, so is this now a step too far? is it time to say enough is enough? joining me now to discuss this is environmental campaigner former mep stanley johnson and leader of ukip , neil hamilton. shapps of ukip, neil hamilton. shapps thank you very, very much. and neil, i'll start with you. do we have to say enough is enough now? britain has done her bit

when it comes to the climate crisis. well, we should have said enough is enough for a very long said enough is enough for a very lon you know, britain produces >> you know, britain produces less the world's less than 1% of all the world's c02 less than 1% of all the world's co2 emissions. >> and even you think that >> and even if you think that c02 >> and even if you think that co2 matter , it's china co2 emissions matter, it's china and india and the united states who produce over half the global total. >> so if anybody's going to have to make sacrifices, it should be them. >> we've actually made our contribution by closing down all our heavy industries coal, steel, glass, making, aluminium, etc. which has all been shipped off to china, where they couldn't care a damn about global warming. they make, you know , honeyed words that things know, honeyed words that things like cop 26 and so on. but actually, you know, their global emissions go up year by year by yean emissions go up year by year by year, and they're actually building around the world. 250 coal power stations as we speak. >> stanley, i'll bring you in. now, look, enough is enough, stanley . we've done our bit. stanley. we've done our bit. we've suffered the pain of green levies taxes and of this levies and taxes and all of this stuff. we've halved our emissions . job done. that's emissions. job done. that's enough. stanley >> well, i didn't think we have

halved our emissions. >> i think that's a lot of a lot of wishful thinking. we are committed to a certain to a certain target to two targets, one and a target for 2050, which is a net zero target on the way to 2050 were commit ed by the end of this decade to a 68% reduction on our on our 1990 emissions. now, the climate change committee said. we are very worried about the way britain is going and frankly , i britain is going and frankly, i think this is not a cause for saying, you know , give it up on saying, you know, give it up on the on the contrary, i say this is the moment for doubling down. and i think i disagree much as i love talking to neil, i disagree with pretty much everything he said. when jacques said. on this day when jacques delors i just want to delors has died, i just want to say to the talk of britain as being just 1, don't forget we are part of this bloc, this european bloc, which taken together, far more than 1. together, is far more than 1. it's no good saying we're only 1. the whole european en bloc. >> we voted to leave exactly .

>> we voted to leave exactly. >> we voted to leave exactly. >> there's no point pretending we don't count because we're only 1. we count because of the influence we can bear on our neighbours in the world as a whole. and we've had a very good influence. i can tell you. you may think i should. i i would, i would say this, wouldn't i, being as the son of a former prime minister, but actually that made that commitment which was made in 2020 by boris boris johnson's government to have this 68% reduction by the end of this year was was crucial. now we've got to get there. we absolutely will get that. i was in dubai and i say there's huge progress. yeah. on the china front they showed last time we met patrick. i've just spent eight weeks in china. i can tell you there is a revolution coming down road revolution coming down the road in terms commitment in terms of the commitment to renewable and the peaking renewable energy and the peaking of coal fired plant and coal emissions . emissions. >> neil, come back to that look. >> neil, come back to that look. >> you could wipe out the entire british economy, you know, wipe out the entire british population and china would make up the reduction carbon up for the reduction in carbon

emissions that would emissions that that would produce a matter of months . produce in a matter of months. >> and is exactly what's >> and that is exactly what's happening china >> and that is exactly what's he so ening china >> and that is exactly what's he so committed china >> and that is exactly what's he so committed to china >> and that is exactly what's héso committed to green china >> and that is exactly what's héso committed to green energy, is so committed to green energy, why are they building 250 coal fired power stations in china and around the world? they're exporting their coal . they're exporting their coal. they're not power generators . other not power generators. other parts of the world, as part of their belt and road initiative . their belt and road initiative. and the reality is that nothing that we do as human beings is going to have that much difference to climate change, because it's caused by factors that are way beyond our control. i mean, there is no observable record of correlation between the rise in co2 emissions, which has taken place in the last 50 to 100 years, and global changes in temperature. you know, we've had periods where the temperature rises, where the temperature rises, where the temperature falls , where the temperature falls, where the temperature falls, where the temperature the same. we temperature stays the same. we just there just had 20 years where there was pause in global was an absolute pause in global warming. nobody's been able to explain that . explain that. >> continue. neil love you. but you've been spouting this stuff as long as i as long as i have

known you and i have been, i can tell you i was one of the first people to go to the original ipcc panel meeting, which was in october 1986. it might have been november in geneva. they got it right then. the ipcc has got it right then. the ipcc has got it right now. the world is moving in the right direction. this government is the one, i've got to be honest with you, right. >> if we are having to, if we are having to employ masked goons ulez cameras goons to guard ulez cameras because ordinary people are saying they cannot afford to pay the ulez charge , and they see the ulez charge, and they see that have halved our co2 that we have now halved our co2 emissions . the first g20 country emissions. the first g20 country to do it . you know, the people to do it. you know, the people don't want this. suddenly. maybe you can afford all the green levies and all of it that comes with. but joe bloggs can't. or why should they have to pay ? why should they have to pay? >> come on, let's pin down this bin, this one down. we have not halved our co2 emission. we are not even on the way to not even properly on the way to that 68% reduction of on 1990 levels, which was promised by the end of the decade. yes, we've made we've made a start on ulez that is a different matter

because we're not talking there about co2. we're talking about particulates, we're talking about these are things about pm 25. these are things which people are worried about, and think we need them. and by and i think we need them. and by the way, i think the air pollution just as important pollution is just as important in co2 obviously in any form. co2 obviously has climate change worldwide climate change and worldwide effect . we've got to get that. neil. >> i just i just don't think the average person on the street gives about whether or gives a toss about whether or not politician can stand not a politician can stand up and we are now a world and say, we are now a world leader. what they care about is their account whether their bank account and whether or feel as though i can or not they feel as though i can tell you have you tell you, you have once you attach the price to these attach the price tag to these airy ideas , people's view airy fairy ideas, people's view changes very rapidly indeed. >> you know what we've been witnessing as a result of all the green taxes and charges that have imposed in order to have been imposed in order to pay have been imposed in order to pay wind farms pay for uneconomic wind farms and solar panels, etc, and farms of solar panels, etc, is the biggest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in lifetime. you know, an and in my lifetime. you know, an and you know, we could cut our electricity bills by 25% if we got rid of the taxes and charges that the government imposes upon

us. and who are the beneficiary of all this? it's multi—millionaire developers of wind farms , most of whom are wind farms, most of whom are foreign companies. by the way. and the process, they've been and in the process, they've been wrecking our countryside. they're damaging to they're massively damaging to wildlife well. bats and birds wildlife as well. bats and birds and so on. and who is benefiting? at the end of the day, it isn't your ordinary man in the street. quite the opposite. they're the ones who in the street. quite the oppsufferingey're the ones who in the street. quite the oppsuffering and the ones who in the street. quite the oppsuffering and it's ones who in the street. quite the oppsuffering and it's reallyrvho are suffering and it's really regressive. the people are suffering. the poorest. suffering. most are the poorest. >> i'm going >> oh, look, stanley, i'm going to just change tack a little bit here. right? and because we have been doing something where we've been doing something where we've been people to guess some been asking people to guess some gb stars from from their gb news stars from from their baby pictures. gb news stars from from their baby pictures . right. and baby pictures. right. and there's one that i'm wondering whether or not you may have a special interest in here. i think we can bring up a picture there we go. um do we know who thatis there we go. um do we know who that is ? does anyone have any that is? does anyone have any idea any anyone here? of the three of us having this discussion right now, does anyone have any idea who this is ? >> 7- >> looks 7 >> looks suspiciously ? >> looks suspiciously like

7 >> looks suspiciously like boris to me. >> i think i recognise the jacket in the bankrupt . jacket in the bankrupt. >> so that is boris , is it? >> so that is boris, is it? >> so that is boris, is it? >> i think i do. i have no idea where that came from. how nice of you. well, all i can say is he's blind on global warming is good. needs to be supported. good. it needs to be supported. and just one point what and neil, just one point on what you saying. yes you're you were saying. yes you're right talk about the super right to talk about the super rich. look at that figure which oxfam came up with the other day. 1% of the world's population produces 16% of the carbon emissions. think about that. that's an important point. >> okay. all right, both of you. thank you very, very much. it was a proper debate. you to love see uh, we have got see it. now, uh, we have got tomorrow's front pages coming in. just in in. they are flying in just in time liveliest pay per time for the liveliest pay per view telly. my panel view anywhere on telly. my panel of newshounds will help me comb through headlines. you through the headlines. so you will be ahead of the game. some caucus

matt so this is from the met police of domestic abuse police victims of domestic abuse have confidence in have lost confidence in britain's police force britain's biggest police force after of scandals . it after a series of scandals. it goes on to rattle off a list of said scandals which have fundamentally let women down, which is terrible . the times which is terrible. the times labour promise big labour will promise big expansion on childcare, nursery places in primaries to be offered. the labour party is drawing up plans to create thousands of nursery places for the under fives as part of an offer to working parents before the next general election. can i zone in on the i please before we go into our, uh , presenters? we go into our, uh, presenters? guess who's of the baby pictures has two people had things compulsory purchased or were basically forced to sell because they were in the catchment zone ? they were in the catchment zone? now hs2 isn't happening . people now hs2 isn't happening. people have lost out on potentially millions of pounds. they're and to see that those new purchasers are going to rent out those things that actually i think

should be a crime. >> can you imagine your family home and you had to let it go because of hs2, and then suddenly a load of nobodies in your house, right. that's an insult. >> yeah . >> yeah. >> yeah. >> well, i couldn't agree more if it was me or any of us personally, you would be horrified. on the other hand, at least they're trying to get a bit of the money back. well, where going? bit of the money back. well, whele going? bit of the money back. well, wh> of context is getting >> a bit of context is getting loads of brownfield site in manchester, right. was manchester, right. what was bought by companies with bought up by companies with billions in the bank. okay under the pretence that this was going to be used for hs2. the pretence that this was going to be used for hs2 . so now it's to be used for hs2. so now it's not they just own these sites. these are massive warehouses. these are massive warehouses. these are massive warehouses. these are huge , huge, huge sites these are huge, huge, huge sites that they now own. and they got a significant reduction in market value of hs2. wasn't happening. they own those sites . happening. they own those sites. they're going to make an absolute killing . absolute killing. >> get planning pritt stick >> get the planning pritt stick get planning permission for

houses. exactly in houses. and they're exactly in for massive. for a massive. >> there's a issue as >> and there's a big issue as well about whether the government to sell off government is going to sell off some of the land that it now owns. decrease is crucial owns. the decrease is crucial for hs2 , which would stop for hs2, which would stop a labour government doing, uh, bringing or doing bringing hs2 back or doing something similar. so that's the big about whether they're big debate about whether they're going more more going to that's more that's more land than houses. land rather than the houses. that's you know, some that's sort of, you know, some of they acquired. >> so apparently 710 properties bought phase two, which was bought for phase two, which was connecting to connecting birmingham to manchester, are now on the rental staffordshire , rental market in staffordshire, cheshire . home cheshire and derbyshire. home owners forced to sell are absolutely outraged as the rental of former homes is what, practically speaking , what can practically speaking, what can happen here now? what should happen here now? what should happen here now? do these home owners compensated? what? >> they've their their >> so they've had their their houses bought them. but at houses bought off them. but at the rate. and they're the set rate. and now they're seeing people them. yeah. seeing people in them. yeah. rather than being rather than than being demolished way for demolished to make way for a railway purpose railway which was the purpose of the. railway which was the purpose of the they should should be >> they should they should be given to have the given an option to have the houses back. yeah >> you think. yeah >> do you think. yeah >> do you think. yeah >> probably spent >> yeah. why not. probably spent some of the money.

>> they've probably bought other properties. >> well i know i do wonder if anyone should anyone anyone should be given if anyone who's to sell sites should who's had to sell sites should be opportunity to buy be given the opportunity to buy it back for what they sold, what they were sold it for. >> that's it. >> yeah. that's it. >> yeah. that's it. >> let's just have some context for money. million a year for the money. 9 million a year from out hundreds from renting out hundreds of homes house homes that might just house migrants in hotels a day. migrants in hotels for a day. >> yes , i know peanuts, so >> yes, i know it's peanuts, so it's peanuts . while we're on the it's peanuts. while we're on the i. can we move to a little story just on the right? yeah. cheers as we can now buy pints wine. as we can now buy pints of wine. at we're bringing at last we're bringing back pints. which pints. we're bringing which one fan pint wine? is fan of a pint of wine? this is not a pint of champagne. >> pub owner, and that's >> i'm a pub owner, and that's like , what is that going to gain like, what is that going to gain me? >> what? what actually what? but also good news is also also sort of good news is that two people haven't got it . that two people haven't got it. so. you've got is, in so. so what you've got is, in fact, only thing they're fact, the only thing they're going change is and you know, going to change is and you know, we all love a mini bottle of they're going to change these sizes bottles sizes of mini bottles that you can but the main can buy booze in. but the main thing is, you know, the metric martyr they're going to martyr and they're going to bnng martyr and they're going to bring of people in bring it back. 1% of people in the said the consultation said they

all right, it is time now to return to our paper review. more front pages have just been

delivered hot off the press. here we go. so let's go in with the daily telegraph travellers told to delay plans amid storm and rail chaos. they are not, i believe, talking about members of the irish traveller community there. they are indeed talking about trying get home about people trying to get home for, christmas . for, uh, from christmas. thousands stranded after post—christmas disruption extends to roads , sea and air. extends to roads, sea and air. it happens every year and it's compounded by strikes and compounded by strikes and compounded by. bear in mind you're talking to somebody here who drove from to who drove from manchester to london for a bit of rain. london today for a bit of rain. that was what that was. it was a bit of rain. and they are also talking about fixed dire justice system make revamp system to make sentence revamp work. so sparing criminals jail sentences will not stop reoffending . that's on the front reoffending. that's on the front of the telegraph. we go to the daily mail. yes, we do hunt plan to slash death tax by half. so this is about the tory tax cut. so jeremy hunt is considering radical plans to cut inheritance tax. the tory party has been considering inheritance tax for

about 13 years. >> the tax is wrong. i worked my whole life for my children and i don't want them to be taxed. their property that i've done, let's focus in on this now. >> come on then guys. so go on. adam, you think that cutting inheritance good thing? inheritance tax is a good thing? >> i do in is >> everything i do in my life is with my children. in my mind, you i want them to have you know, i want them to have the best start in life. if suddenly tomorrow, i want suddenly i go tomorrow, i want them to have easiest life them to have the easiest life that my hard work can that possibly my hard work can give them . and i think give them. and i think inheritance tax is a disgrace . inheritance tax is a disgrace. and it should be abolished, not just half . just half. >> oh, god, matthew, have you got? >> so look, i mean, i mean, both my parents died, so i paid inheritance tax on my dad's estate. tories changed so estate. the tories changed it so that children can that you can your children can inherit the family home up to kind of what's basically the average family average house of a family home. about 400 grand. yeah, yeah. so you an extra 250 you had you had an extra 250 grand the thing. so grand onto the thing. so i didn't pay it when my mum died. um i think that you have um and i think that you have to set sensible level. at set it at a sensible level. at the it affects only 5 to the moment it affects only 5 to 7% , of estate. so i think 7% of, um, of estate. so i think that. it's fine. it's that. yeah it's fine. it's

decent. should able decent. you should be able to pass to kids, pass something on to your kids, but for very, very you know, those were the biggest shoulders should, should take to take their share burden. their fair share of the burden. so about getting the level so it's about getting the level right when the tories right for me when the tories problem is that because it only affects is it 5? >> i thought it was four and a half anyway. five small number of perception is of people. the perception is that that only of people. the perception is that rich that only of people. the perception is that rich front that only of people. the perception is that rich front of that only of people. the perception is that rich front of the that only of people. the perception is that rich front of the mirror. only the rich front of the mirror. that's not not the point that's not that's not the point that is the tories concern. >> absolutely. >> absolutely. >> but it affects a lot of their core supporters. and if they don't keep core don't keep their core supporters, they really are doomed. doesn't doomed. and it's it doesn't affect inflation. yeah. it's affect inflation. yeah. but it's you can't you can't say that everyone that pays inheritance tax is rich. no you can't, but thatis tax is rich. no you can't, but that is how it's perceived. >> the truth of the matter is that mean, it is the that they are i mean, it is the top the top five. top 5. they are the top five. the 5% of people leave the top 5% of people who leave it and are at the moment. it and they are at the moment. the truth the matter is the truth of the matter is you've tax rises you've had so many tax rises under tory government. we under this tory government. we need down on working need to get tax down on working families first. >> well, there was a of >> well, there was a lot of pushback from tory mps saying that want get that they do want to just get things like income and things like income tax and national insurance. now it's dragging pay. dragging people into to pay. >> is more of

>> high rate tax is more of a worry for me. >> yeah, yeah, i can see both sides of it. personally, i would scrap inheritance tax and basically but basically reduce all tax. but you we did you know, that's just me. we did have minister that tried have a prime minister that tried that once didn't end that that once and it didn't end that well but um, look, let's well did it? but um, look, let's just yeah. yeah. just quickly. yeah. well, yeah. yeah, asked yeah, i've just asked the lettuce, we've got time yeah, i've just asked the lettjust we've got time yeah, i've just asked the lettjust a we've got time yeah, i've just asked the lettjust a couple we've got time yeah, i've just asked the lettjust a couple more; got time yeah, i've just asked the lettjust a couple more gb t time yeah, i've just asked the lettjust a couple more gb news�* forjust a couple more gb news presenters photos. oh, we've got union jack carson greatest britain, go . bring him britain, so let's go. bring him up. him up. who we got up. bring him up. who we got here? who this? is here? so who is this? who is this anybody that might this cowboy? anybody that might be tom harwood because it's the right. >> looking at the age >> i'm looking at the age because that because you've seen him in that costume i've costume before. i haven't, i've seen cowboy uniform, seen him in a cowboy uniform, but of that vintage. i jest, but not of that vintage. i jest, um, anyone ? um, anyone? >> it looks quite. i think it's somebody who's on old side. somebody who's on the old side. >> right. stephen dixon. >> all right. stephen dixon. >> all right. stephen dixon. >> oh, it's stephen dixon. >> oh, it's stephen dixon. >> we go. okay we'll do >> there we go. okay we'll do one and then get one more, and then we'll get into greater britain. union. jackass screaming jackass who is that screaming who that is? >> go on. arlene >> go on. arlene >> arlene, you're going for arlene. >> it just is, arlene, isn't it ? >> it just is, arlene, isn't it? yeah. must be. >> you can see. okay. it is. >>— >> you can see. okay. it is. >> oh, he must be. look it is,
