a similar we'd do it a similar thing but we'd do it differently. however think differently. however i think they've performative they've been very performative on this and they're making it out that they've got the solution no one's the solution and no one's got the solution and no one's got the solution . and this, this hasn't solution. and this, this hasn't been feasibility solution. and this, this hasn't been think feasibility solution. and this, this hasn't been think iszasibility solution. and this, this hasn't been think iszazvalidy yet. i think this is a valid solution. >> the third country, i mean, i think so . think so. >> i mean, it needs to be deterrent. >> but the rwanda plan has been a shambles. >> but the reason why iran didn't it wasn't didn't work is because it wasn't judged country . if they judged a safe country. if they could a country could find a safe country and they're talking about albania and they're talking also slightly differently about processing stuff , like processing the stuff, like having system set up having the uk system set up within that country to process, as opposed to just dumping everyone in rwanda. but it's interesting that years interesting here that 20 years ago, literally wrote down, ago, he literally wrote down, blair, we must not allow the echr stop us dealing with it. echr to stop us dealing with it. so this issue has been going on a time. exactly the a long, long time. exactly the same dynamics are being going on. yes. and it's interesting that, it hasn't that, like i said, it hasn't been dealt with. whoever >> interesting. right. >> interesting. okay. right. saturday's now james daly saturday's times now james daly is blaming society's ills on the parents. yes. yeah. >> crap. parents at fault for
11:22 pm
struggling children tory says tory mp this is for barry north james daly really need for that sort of language. well he says that more politicians should have put speak more straight shooting like he's part of the group with leanne and what are they called new tories or new conservatives. yeah. so they're the new tories, new labour heard this phrase before. what? >> what does that mean? that politicians should just have more trash talk? >> i mean, be more plain speaking? argue the best speaking? i would argue the best tory. the not she isn't. i wouldn't say she's plain speaking, but, uh kemi badenoch. i think is the best communicator. think she is for communicator. i think she is for the tories. yeah. um, but but i think, frankly , she he's right. think, frankly, she he's right. that bad parenting is a problem in terms of what we're seeing the, the, the struggling children. but he doesn't identify as why there's bad parenting . and there are two parenting. and there are two reasons. number one is just economics. people have jobs, two jobs. it's very hard to do parenting and parent well when you're off at of all day and
11:23 pm
number two is, is because people's own backgrounds, if theyif people's own backgrounds, if they if they had a bad parents, that stuff that cycle just repeats itself. and that's why you had something like, sure, start the whole point of sure start, which brought in under start, which is brought in under new labour. the right wing government, point government, is that the point was would deal with this was they would deal with this issue to kids when issue early, get to kids when they're 4 or 5, six and stop that repeating what that cycle repeating what happened. tories closed happened. the tories closed down. sure. start. so you actually did see an impact. and i worked sure so i worked for sure start. so i know in there and you know i was in there and you would the difference it made would see the difference it made for families. and i think it's devastating that tories. devastating that the tories. i think one of the worst think that's one of the worst things that the tories. >> think i'm of >> but do you think i'm kind of surprised to hear you say, do you family values you think that family values then that that then the whole thing that that john major was pushing with, with basics campaign john major was pushing with, with actually basics campaign john major was pushing with, with actually is basics campaign john major was pushing with, with actually is somethingmpaign that actually is something that we should be pushing for? >> think that >> i think that i think that there's something that needs to be, uh, acknowledged that the having parents, uh, makes having two parents, uh, makes a massive difference to your outcome. that's just no , i mean, outcome. that's just no, i mean, having two parents who were together makes big difference together makes a big difference to. just that's that's
11:24 pm
to. that's just that's that's reality. to. that's just that's that's reaiit/. like a conservative view. >> well, might sound a bit, >> well, it might sound a bit, but i don't think that that's necessarily talking necessarily what he's talking about. sort of i think he about. he's sort of i think he isn't actually getting the isn't actually getting to the gnps isn't actually getting to the grips bad parenting. >> so why is there bad parenting? paul no, i wasn't saying you are a bad parent, but just just it just laugh. just just it just made me laugh. >> that the >> the way that phrase, the question, um, look, there is bad parenting because parenting is not easy. renee well, that's what i think. so you know, i mean, i'm a parent. uh, josh is a parent and as this sounds very labour ish now, but as a society , we we're all parents. you know, i don't know if you've got nieces or nephews or a godchildren. you know, we all have a responsibility here. i think there is an element of this sometimes where you do need to be cruel to be kind. this to be cruel to be kind. so this sort of very basic language does cut what it does. cut through. yes. what it does. um fortunately, is it takes one part of the problem and chucks it bus. now, we do it under the bus. now, we do need to tackle that. i absolutely agree about sure start. i think back start. and i think back to basics of the basics was the start of the stuff that new labour introduced
11:25 pm
. and there are all good policies . the thing is they cost policies. the thing is they cost money. yes it all takes up resources . so that's why i talk resources. so that's why i talk about the you know, i don't usually talk in this in this way, but the collective responsibility for making sure society brings up children correctly, and that is back to bafics correctly, and that is back to basics. i mean, is it the case that poverty explains bad parenting? possibly has a big part of it? we've got a lot because then the struggle is harder. not just it's not harder. it's not just it's not just it's cultural just poverty, it's cultural issues. , uh, issues. yeah, it's, uh, unfortunately, uh, physical abuse being repeated through, you know, when i was working for sure start the c files and it was the same cycle over and over again at 13, some would get pregnant and you would see like within 40 years, like four generations, three generations. and it would be these thick files and it would just be very few families. if you can put your resources onto these families who have these historical issues, it makes a big, big, big difference. >> okay . very interesting >> okay. very interesting debate. okay. let's move on to the guardian now. and it seems that being an mp isn't all
11:26 pm
remote working and subsidised bars . bars. >> no, no, it's certainly not. i didn't know who to talk to mps on the hidden toll of their mental health. while a handful of politicians have openly discussed this decision , just discussed this decision, just their stress of the job, the scale of the problem appears to be far greater now. i think it's worth pointing out at this point that this is within the guardian, who don't exactly hold back having a go at back when they're having a go at tory and it's the same for , tory mps. and it's the same for, you know, probably the telegraph and the other you know, probably the telegraph and around. the other you know, probably the telegraph and around. however,e other you know, probably the telegraph and around. however, this1er you know, probably the telegraph and around. however, this is way around. however, this is a serious issue. >> yeah, the trouble >> yeah, but the trouble is, paul >> yeah, but the trouble is, paul, you for paul, that when you do run for office, you have to accept that you're going to be held up to scrutiny because because there's no actually, no other way. actually, no. for a to run, have to a democracy to run, you have to be scrutinise . be able to scrutinise. >> so i would say it's for not the faint no. and it is the faint hearted. no. and it is all about strength of character. and, unfortunately, all about strength of character. and,of unfortunately, all about strength of character. and,of stoicism unately, all about strength of character. and,of stoicism ,�*|ately, all about strength of character. and,of stoicism , um,y, all about strength of character. and,of stoicism , um, um, sort of stoicism, um, um, doesn't really exist anymore. it's not valued in the same way it used to be. we capitulate, probably too quickly. >> but i also do have sympathy, and with mps,
11:27 pm
and i always have with mps, because think really because i do think it's a really hard know we can all hard job. and i know we can all be very critical about the people are kind of people who are kind of like vocational mps they're vocational mps or they're not vocational mps or they're not vocational know, they vocational mps. you know, they they careerist you they are careerist mps and you know, sort of thing. know, that sort of thing. but even the amount of work, even then, the amount of work, the amount of pressure, the amount of public scrutiny, it's really not it's an really not surely it's not an easy there are ministers who >> and there are ministers who are here and so i think are quoted here and so i think their workload is even greater. and have responsibility and you have that responsibility then their then they're talking about their constituents and, um, and then if you imagine if the thick of it or something has. yeah if it's anywhere near 50% truth and people screaming at you and they abuse and, and the fear and, and also think for some of them it also i think for some of them it sounds like what a few of them have quoted basically say have quoted here basically say i got into this to make a difference. realised difference. uh, then i realised that the system is rigged. so now i take drugs and just, i mean, the stuff i hear about i'm reading between the lines here. no, this joke, putting up no, but this joke, putting up the gist the joke, but that's the gist of it. there's something to it. >> there's something to it. i mean, spoken to couple mean, i've spoken to a couple of mps told me about mps who who have told me about the goes behind mps who who have told me about the scenes. goes behind mps who who have told me about the scenes. you>es behind
11:28 pm
mps who who have told me about the scenes. you wouldn'thind mps who who have told me about the scenes. you wouldn't believe the scenes. you wouldn't believe the of machiavellianism, the kind of machiavellianism, the kind of machiavellianism, the nepotism the playing, the nepotism, the games playing, the nepotism, the games playing, the kind of power. the shakespeare kind of power. plays like that stuff is real. and it it sounds like it's just a job. i would never want to do. no, we put we put mps , no, we put we put mps, celebrities, well—known people , celebrities, well—known people, we put them on pedestals and we judge them. >> we judge them by a paradigm that doesn't exist . but also on >> we judge them by a paradigm thatof)esn't exist . but also on >> we judge them by a paradigm thatof that, exist . but also on >> we judge them by a paradigm thatof that, there's but also on >> we judge them by a paradigm thatof that, there's the also on >> we judge them by a paradigm thatof that, there's the extra on top of that, there's the extra toxicity now we have of online stuff and of just politics in general , all down this general, all going down this much sort of polarised much more sort of polarised routine. and you have something like mike frear, who's the mp for, um , uh, for golders green. for, um, uh, for golders green. he had his office, a suspected arson attack . he's been getting arson attack. he's been getting threats for, basically for him defending israel , threats for, basically for him defending israel, a threats for, basically for him defending israel , a democratic defending israel, a democratic state. yeah. and uh, but that's not to say we know if that's what it is, but we know that these online threats can be real. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> and certainly his office has been burnt down. >> yeah. absolutely horrific. okay telegraph now and a politician suggesting that another politician isn't doing a good that can't be right. good job. that can't be right. no crazy uh, scotland moving
11:29 pm
politically backwards under the snp says alex salmond, who used to be the leader of the snp. >> basically this is alex salmond being just the jilted ex and he's just dishing all the dirt and he's angry and he's bitter and he's saying, oh, he doesn't give it to you like i used to. yeah, but scotland on the on the other hand, that wasn't a joke . wasn't a joke. >> on the hand, he has he >> on the other hand, he has he has point he. if has got a point hasn't he. if the snp's raison d'etre is to achieve, independence from achieve, uh, independence from the uk. right. just statistically in terms of the polling under alex salmond, they were doing much better in that particular cause than what happened under nicola sturgeon and subsequently humza yousaf. happened under nicola sturgeon ancthissequently humza yousaf. happened under nicola sturgeon ancthis isquently humza yousaf. happened under nicola sturgeon ancthis is an ntly humza yousaf. happened under nicola sturgeon ancthis is an amazing za yousaf. happened under nicola sturgeon ancthis is an amazing thinngaf. happened under nicola sturgeon ancthis is an amazing thing that happened under nicola sturgeon anc'happened. |mazing thing that happened under nicola sturgeon anc'happened. he'sng thing that happened under nicola sturgeon anc'happened. he's he thing that happened under nicola sturgeon anc'happened. he's he is ng that happened under nicola sturgeon anc'happened. he's he is ng th .t has happened. he's he is right. of course. have governed of course. they have governed terribly . uh, but it needs to terribly. uh, but it needs to happen. terribly. uh, but it needs to happen . the snp has to implode happen. the snp has to implode for the good of scotland because it's a one party state. yeah. and for the good of the uk because it just doesn't work. having this like one issue to run your entire country. >> no. and it also means that other issues get smuggled in
11:30 pm
like trans like like like the trans issue, like the issue , which the gender ideology issue, which was supported. the was never supported. the majority of scottish did majority of scottish voters did not support the idea men in not support the idea of men in women's prisons, snp women's prisons, but the snp railroaded it through anyway because the majority of mps supported scotland supported it. you know, scotland deserves better than the snp curse. >> scotland going yeah, maybe. i mean he did run didn't he. he did run. yes he they should have voted uh alas we voted him in and uh well alas we can't force people. voted him in and uh well alas we canwe)rce people. voted him in and uh well alas we canwe can'teople. voted him in and uh well alas we canwe can't force. voted him in and uh well alas we canwe can't force comedians here. >> if only we could. yeah, i think that would be called a dictatorship. scotland dictatorship. um look, scotland deserves better. they they raise on debt, as you rightly say, for , for, for the snp and the alba party. let's face it, is scottish independence. but what they've tried to do is get it through by any means possible , through by any means possible, by using any popular , coolest by using any popular, coolest idea floating around was just a really good party, and maybe they could have lost all integrity. >> now, you know what? if they'd have governed better? yeah they. yeah. then maybe things would have that's have been anyway, i think that's essentially have been anyway, i think that's essenwell, then he's probably okay well, then he's probably right well it for right. okay. well that's it for part join us after the part two. so join us after the break sobriety. tags the

11:34 pm
radio. >> welcome back to headlines as we're going to start this section with the telegraph news that prison is not the best place to do your master's degree. >> who would thought it? >> who would have thought it? hey, malkin's, hey, this is andrew malkin's, and was the guy and remember, he was the guy who was jailed rape for was wrongly jailed for rape for 17 horrible story years. actually, the biggest part of that tragedy is the guy that they had the dna for. that proved it wasn't andrew. proved that it wasn't andrew. they had that in year three of his sentence. i read today in this story. so 14 years of that sentence, this is why there's a huge investigation going on. by the this is not story. the way, this is not the story. >> well, how did it get held up out interest? out of interest? >> now an investigation >> there is now an investigation going why i don't going on to find out why i don't know, that is shocking. >> case, while he >> but in this case, while he was falsely was in prison, falsely imprisoned, effectively was in prison, falsely imprisonyfor effectively was in prison, falsely imprisonyfor degreeffectively was in prison, falsely imprisonyfor degreeffe> say , and um, much to >> and i say, and um, much to his surprise, to not mine at
11:35 pm
all, that the staff were not very supportive. um they weren't very supportive. um they weren't very keen on people doing higher education, really. and they would put obstacles in their way . he makes out this was on radio four. he made this on the today programme. i think today i think today. so if you're watching this tomorrow, i mean, um, friday, the upshot is that he managed to complete this master's, but that against the really the will of the prison is what he's saying in that that is really shocking to me because i would that you would have thought that you would have thought that you would want prison officer, would want as a prison officer, you would want them to be doing stuff like this. >> i mean, maybe there's yeah, the might, we're the system might, but we're talking about individual officers, talking about individual officeimagine number one might >> i imagine number one might actually to actually think it's a threat to them. why because maybe they're going, guy to going, i don't want this guy to be cleverer than me. oh i see, you at like , someone to you know, at like, someone to be, like, snooty and more knowledgeable . well, just like knowledgeable. well, just like me you the time. me talking to you all the time. it's like it's a pain, but isn't the point that better you the point that you better if you if use the time to if you can use the time to better system better yourself. so the system might to the might want people to it. and the other is that like any
11:36 pm
other thing is that like any job, everybody just wants to get away amount of away with the least amount of work. so they don't want be work. so they don't want to be like guards don't work. so they don't want to be like to guards don't work. so they don't want to be like to goingiards don't work. so they don't want to be like to going tois don't work. so they don't want to be like to going to get)n't work. so they don't want to be like to going to get int work. so they don't want to be like to going to get in a want to be going to get in a rubber protractor, rubber and a protractor, whatever it is. >> that's easier than >> i thought, that's easier than like people the like policing people out in the yard. each other. they yard. shanking each other. they want smuggle in drugs want to like, smuggle in drugs up bum and things i would up their bum and things i would have this is easier. have thought this is easier. someone a library someone sitting in a library i would easier to would have thought is easier to police mean, he said. police than i mean, he said. >> his admission, he was >> by his own admission, he was a was studious. he a nerd. he was studious. he wanted . this was an wanted to learn. this was an opportunity. was opportunity. he knew he was wrongly and wrongly convicted, i guess, and he wanted guest. he he just wanted to make guest. he was oh, i had was like, oh, i hope i had a really big out other really big night out the other night. wasn't me. but night. i hope it wasn't me. but what that he hadn't what i mean by that is he hadn't less than 1% of people get their murder convictions or rape convictions over. so he convictions turned over. so he was in many ways fortunate that he ended with justice on his he ended up with justice on his side . side. >> absolutely. okay. well, >> well, absolutely. okay. well, let's guardian let's move on to the guardian now. government are now. and the government are keeping offenders keeping a track of offenders drinking when they go straight. pauli drinking when they go straight. paul, i had even heard of this. >> no, i think this is really interesting. i'd never heard of it 30,000 it either. so nearly 30,000 offenders in england and wales wearing this wearing sobriety tags this christmas. so a number of
11:37 pm
offenders were fitted with these sobriety tags. and the probation office can tell if they've been drinking essentially . drinking essentially. >> because it analyses >> so it's because it analyses their . yes. their sweat. yes. >> and it basically it >> right. and it basically it works on 97% of the people who wear these tags. so it stops them drinking. >> so presumably this is when their offences have been connected to alcohol consumption. i think. >> um, there's part of this >> so um, there's part of this i understand this is a this is a great deterrent. it's probably best people that are out great deterrent. it's probably berparole people that are out great deterrent. it's probably berparole or people that are out great deterrent. it's probably berparole or familye that are out great deterrent. it's probably berparole or family visits,are out great deterrent. it's probably berparole or family visits, as out on parole or family visits, as they from , from more open they do from, from more open prisons the end of their prisons towards the end of their sentences. it's best have sentences. it's best to have them you don't really them sober. you don't really want and cause want them to go and cause themselves problems, themselves any more problems, but there's this of but there's this kind of libertarian that just libertarian within me that just really difficult really finds it difficult watching other humans be controlled. i know they're criminals , and they may well criminals, and they may well have done something totally worthy of being tagged up, but there's something i just i don't know what do feel? am i just know what do you feel? am i just alone i hear alone here? no, no, no, i hear you, but i said, 39% you, man. but like i said, 39% of all violent crime in the uk involves and involves alcohol. yeah, and that's including domestic abuse.
11:38 pm
involves alcohol. yeah, and that�*especially; domestic abuse. involves alcohol. yeah, and that�*especially during stic abuse. involves alcohol. yeah, and that�*especially during the abuse. and especially during the festive it makes festive period. so it makes sense. i get this is about sense. i get you this is about control. but arguably when someone's committed crimes , yes, someone's committed crimes, yes, the on preventing the onus is on preventing further crimes. certainly violent crimes towards other people. so like in all of these things, you have the rights of the individual versus the rights of society. we'd have to deal with with alcohol with somebody with an alcohol problem. wouldn't they presumably want this because they don't go back to prison. >> so and if they're aware that alcohol is the thing that stimulates any stimulates so there isn't any kickback making kickback other than me making some um, liberty some sort of, um, liberty comment about controlling humans, of course, some comment about controlling humans,need of course, some comment about controlling humans,need to »f course, some comment about controlling humans,need to be ourse, some comment about controlling humans,need to be controlleda comment about controlling humans,need to be controlled or humans need to be controlled or not, you know. well, prison, not a controlling human society. so and i agree with prison. >> so and i agree with prison. so yeah , no one's kicking back so yeah, no one's kicking back at this seems to be at this. and this seems to be working very well. and if you sorry i notice sorry i'll just say i notice they for no, they don't do it for weed. no, i think because that well it doesn't that doesn't cause crime. >> well, that's what i'm saying is they're not going to have >> well, that's what i'm saying is tray're not going to have >> well, that's what i'm saying is tray're nc detector. 0 have like a weed detector. >> no, they're just be like, oh yeah, chilled. yeah, you're chilled. >> it's a choice >> yeah. and if it's a choice between someone's between controlling someone's alcohol consumption, which i agree does deprive them of a certain degree of liberty and then in a box which
11:39 pm
then locking them in a box which is worse. >> all the liberty gone. >> all the liberty gone. >> all the liberty gone. >> all that. you know, >> yeah. all that. you know, maybe this is i you're maybe this is i think you're right. on to right. okay, let's move on to the times and labour attacking private schools . john. yes. private schools. john. yes. >> uh, i think it's telegraph here. oh, is it the telegraph? >> sorry. we're going to lose a third of parents, but like you've got to, will lose you've got to, we will lose a third of parents. >> the private schools facing closure under labour's tax plans. proposed 20% vat plans. labour's proposed 20% vat tax on top of private school fees, which is not presently charged. the idea is that that money would then be put into the national education system, and then you've got a lot of private schools here. go. no, they schools here. go. oh no, they people they've £30,000 people got they've got £30,000 a yeah people got they've got £30,000 a year. to year. they're going to be charged my charged an extra £6,000. my argument be if you can argument would be if you can afford that level already. now they're saying that like a third of their pupils might have to go. yes. i think they're overegging it a little bit. think. >> yeah, that's surely not true. >> yeah, that's surely not true. >> i feel like are a lot >> i feel like there are a lot of people out there, of super rich people out there, and another six grand is if you can 30 grand, you can can afford 30 grand, you can afford grand. that's to afford 36 grand. yeah, that's to my the case. >> although keep hearing those
11:40 pm

11:42 pm
its consistency with the word of the bible. yes. and what pope francis in particular seems to be doing, for better or worse . be doing, for better or worse. i'm not drawing a judgement on that.is i'm not drawing a judgement on that. is rhiannon interpreting the bible to bring the catholic church into the 21st century, into this progressive era. and i don't know if that's such a good thing. i think one of the values of being within the catholic church or the protestant church or the jewish faith is there is church or the protestant church 0|bedrock ish faith is there is church or the protestant church 0|bedrock on faith is there is church or the protestant church 0|bedrock on which s there is church or the protestant church 0|bedrock on which youzre is church or the protestant church 0|bedrock on which you rely; church or the protestant church 0|bedrock on which you rely and a bedrock on which you rely and to try and make that progressive. sorry, disagree progressive. sorry, i disagree with that he's, you know, with you in that he's, you know, the catholic church doesn't base their stuff on the bible. they base stuff on the synod base their stuff on the synod or whatever rules that whatever it is. the rules that they made of years they made hundreds of years later . so this them they made hundreds of years later. so this them . you later. so this is them. you know, there's nothing in the bible saying that priests or holy men can't be married , for holy men can't be married, for example. that is purely a catholic church creation. in fact, the torah , the fibre, it's fact, the torah, the fibre, it's all about procreation, procreation. so so a rabbi is famously have a lot of kids, you
11:43 pm
know. so but there is stuff in the bible about homosexuality for instance. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> and that's that's 100% >> and that's and that's 100% right. joke >> there we go. yeah. but that's the um, the thing that, um, pope francis, know how francis, i don't know how liberal he really is. i mean, you know he said you know, he hasn't said anything that's anything to my mind. that's really contradicts of really contradicts the age of consent . consent. >> should be over 13 for goodness sake . goodness sake. >> like, go on, paul, no , he >> like, go on, paul, no, he seems to be less against homosexuality than the previous catholic preaching has never been that homosexuality itself is sinful. it's at the act is sinful, not because of homosexuality , but because all homosexuality, but because all sexual acts outside of wedlock are sinful. that's the reason it's lesbians. it's myself. >> i wasn't going to say this, but i fear that pope francis is a little performed . i've really a little performed. i've really i do just don't think he means what he says. i know. well, he may well be. i don't think he necessarily means it. i think that it's a committee based system, and they're saying the things think other people things they think other people want that's wow . want to hear. well, that's wow. and genuinely and unfortunately, i genuinely i believe the believe that. but also the ordaining as ordaining of married men as
11:44 pm
priests that unfortunately priests, that is unfortunately that's to be that's he's not going to be tackling his papacy. tackling that during his papacy. so out. i'm very upset so that's me out. i'm very upset about that . yeah ready to go. >> oh well. oh well never mind. well that's the end of part three. get bed yet three. don't get to bed yet because three we'll be because in part three we'll be discussing mistake discussing google's big mistake dangerous diets and generation z taste in entertainment. see you shortly

11:49 pm
uncancelable . yeah, he's got uncancelable. yeah, he's got a massive audience now . you can massive audience now. you can argue till the cows come home and i'm more than happy to. whether he's the comedian whether he's the best comedian in the moment, in the world at the moment, that's very subjective, he's that's very subjective, but he's certainly that's very subjective, but he's certainow. and one of the right now. and one of the reasons he is, is he goes at subjects very straight. yeah, very straight . he holds that very straight. he holds that mirror up and he says the thing you're not expecting to hear the type of thing made us all type of thing that made us all laugh we were young laugh when we were young lads and say, you know, and people would say, you know, it's of surprise . it's the element of surprise. yeah, there's edginess to i hate to use that don't see to use that word. i don't see him edgelord . it's him as some edgelord. it's cleverer an edgelord. he's cleverer than an edgelord. he's not deliberately he not deliberately trying to. he is provocative. >> is a refreshing element >> there is a refreshing element to mean, that the clip to it. i mean, that the clip that viral last was that went viral last year was when about, uh, when he was talking about, uh, the trans issue, and it was brilliant , actually. brilliant, actually. >> it was incredibly insightful . >> it was incredibly insightful. yeah. it really it was yeah. because it really it was a perfect bit of comedy because it had cake ate it in terms had his cake and ate it in terms of and he really it was obvious by the like using terf by some of the like using terf or, know, he showed the or, you know, he showed the aggression of these people who are basically advocating for male rapists to be in jails and
11:50 pm
whatnot. >> what worries me is this, this the literal mindedness, the inability to just say, look, that's a joke that isn't to my taste. so therefore i just won't watch it. rather than going and screaming and saying he should stop understand the stop and i don't understand the leap make leap that you make psychologically from something that's just not your cup of tea to everyone else to i must stop everyone else from listening to this. >> his words violence . words >> his words is violence. words is because it's because is violence because it's because it goes what we were it goes back to what we were talking earlier, about talking about earlier, about control. say control. and there you say they're frenzied this year control. and there you say they're theyfrenzied this year control. and there you say they're they they ed this year control. and there you say they're they they sent|is year control. and there you say they're they they sent all'ear control. and there you say they're they they sent all the because they they sent all the tweets year. they showed tweets last year. they showed all the and we see every all the stuff. and we see every year have this heale year we have this james heale a clip calling out , clip of him calling out, supposedly hsi , i supposedly now james hsi, i think it's a brilliant, brilliant stand up. like if you've seen specials, like you've seen his specials, like his brilliant. his hour, they are brilliant. the clip they show the bit that the clip they show is of the most pathetic bits is one of the most pathetic bits of, comedy. it's of, and not even comedy. it's just him being just like it's him being performative . someone said performative. and someone said something was something that i thought was very on twitter, very incisive today on twitter, they said, the thing that fails about that, james acaster bit, where saying, where he's basically saying, oh, look the look at me. like taking the mickey comedy and mickey out of edgy comedy and whatever. is that actually, in terms talking about trans terms of talking about trans issues that this
