great and fine men, but of course it would be women too. now, of course. yes, we forget not just be your sons or your grandsons, but what do you make of would you sign up for of it? would you sign up for a war? i think it would be different if the country is under of invasion, like under threat of invasion, like fascist germany are about fascist nazi germany are about to invade us. but this the to invade us. but this is the general talking about general is talking about potential with russia in potential war with russia in years to come. do you want your kids to go out to the crimea and fight, or your grandchildren, or you? would you do it? we you? but would you do it? we have generation, have a whole generation, particularly of teenagers, for whom the word worst, their worst nightmare, is not knowing the wi—fi code when they walk into a room. >> the idea that they would be able to go into this environment and physically fight for this country, that loyalty . i'm so country, that loyalty. i'm so sorry. we're in a very different place than we were in the 1930s. that loyalty towards king and country , etc. doesn't exist . i'm country, etc. doesn't exist. i'm so sorry it doesn't exist. >> and it's also the fact he's making this speech is a reflection on the fact we've allowed the armed forces to
9:37 am
decline and wither on the vine so badly. >> the army is down to 72,000. it hasn't. we have more people in army. when were in the army. when we were fighting crimean extra fighting the crimean war, extra ordinary. maybe should bring ordinary. maybe we should bring back . back the horses. >> i mean, and it will >> but also, i mean, and it will be heah >> but also, i mean, and it will be hear. what? be interesting to hear. what? what's again? head what's his name again? the head of sir patrick. of the army, sir patrick. >> sir patrick. thank you, general. sir patrick sanders. we'll know we'll be interesting to know what he says this morning about this, i have been led to this, because i have been led to believe the last several believe over the last several decades now is decades that war now is something happens remote. something that happens remote. >> happens huge >> it's happens between huge planes sky that shoot planes in the sky that shoot each it's not going each other. and it's not going to drones human to be human and drones human beings with guns like what? so . beings with guns like what? so. we're going to ask you what you think. >> so we're doing a poll on twitter. would you fight for your country? would you want your country? would you want your grandson, your granddaughter, your child, your daughter? you can go to the poll on twitter at gb news. on our twitter page at gb news. yes. no? it's a very simple yes. or no? it's a very simple question. would you or wouldn't yes. or no? it's a very simple quesyeah.vould you or wouldn't you. yeah. >> and then yes , give us your >> and then yes, give us your reasons why. no us your reasons why. no give us your reasons why. no give us your reasons we will look at it. reasons why we will look at it.
9:38 am
>> and how many people do you think would do it? we're going to the former head of to talk to the former head of counter terrorism at the mod, major counter terrorism at the mod, majo known this counter terrorism at the mod, majoknown this program. good well known to this program. good morning you, chip. this is an morning to you, chip. this is an extraordinary intervention done by the army. he's by the head of the army. he's making speech this making the speech later this morning. lots of men morning. do we need lots of men and on ground fighting and women on the ground fighting war, said, don't we fight war, as bev said, don't we fight wars drones and wars now with drones and missiles ? missiles? >> well, that's the big debate which has been out there between the nature of war and the character of war. and has the character of war. and has the character of war changed? now, if you look at the nature of war, we always say, for example, there's a clausewitzian trinity , there's a clausewitzian trinity, and that you can only and that is you can only campaign successfully if the army or armed forces, the government and the people are aligned, and if one of those blocks is out of sync, then you can't campaign . that's, for can't campaign. that's, for example, why the americans had to of vietnam . so having to get out of vietnam. so having the debate about a draft proposal for whatever it might be, conscription is really designed to generate discussion and perhaps new and better ideas
9:39 am
in terms of the character of war, the person i look to for this is mark milley, who's just at the outgoing chairman of the joint chiefs of staff in america in 2017. he talked about five myths that we need to let go. the first one, wars might be short , they might not be. and of short, they might not be. and of course, that preceded the invasion of ukraine. the second one, armies fight wars. they don't. nations fight wars . the don't. nations fight wars. the third one armies are easy to create. they aren't . the fourth create. they aren't. the fourth one. you can win wars from afar just by dropping ordnance . you just by dropping ordnance. you can't. you need boots on the ground eventually, and that requires something between mass. it is true, as general cavoli, the current saceur in europe said, that precision can beat mass, but it takes time. so really there are two concepts, i think, that have been missing from most defence reviews. the first one is regeneration and how we actually make sure that the armed forces we have are fully manned, fully stocked ,
9:40 am
fully manned, fully stocked, available and sustainable . and available and sustainable. and the second one, which again this is designed to sort of generate discussion, is reconstitution . discussion, is reconstitution. how do you expand both your armed forces and the industrial base to support the type of war that he's reflecting upon? >> and also, chip, how do you create a generation of kids who are effectively pretty narcissistic ? actually, these narcissistic? actually, these days we've had this culture, haven't we, that we think, you know, you've got to love yourself first. there's this sort of mindset amongst the younger their younger generation. all their selfies social media tell selfies on social media to tell those youngsters you've got to go and put all of everything you've ever wanted to do, all your future, your ambition to one side. you've to go and one side. you've got to go and fight this country. of fight for this country. most of them probably can't even name them probably can't even name the is why the prime minister. this is why you is why you you need public. this is why you need a national identity, isn't it? for times crisis? it? for times of crisis? >> yeah, there is something to be about there be said about that. and there has been of discussion, has been a lot of discussion, of course, z. the course, about gen z. the disconnected generation, which has an second filter of has an eight second filter of it's interested in it's not interested in something. moves and something. it moves on and they're generation more
9:41 am
they're the generation more likely and likely to suffer stress and burnout. they're easily offended and they lack motivation and productivity. again, one of productivity. now again, one of the things which is missing is if we deemed or people deem that it was vital interest , then i'm it was vital interest, then i'm sure people would sign up. but we've been pretty bad at defining what vital defining what are the vital interests the major interests, the minor interests of the uk. and example, would argue and for example, i would argue that the vital interests that one of the vital interests is, of course, the free flow of trade, which is why the sort of red sea bab el mandeb and the houthi is key to us houthi action is key to us because that increases inflation, uh, disrupts uh, trades around the world and makes life really disastrous for all. and we're just not good at doing that. the other tension with patrick saunders is also with patrick saunders is also with the chief of defence staff, where the chief of defence staff talks about expedition rather than continental power , and than continental power, and that, um, our operational advantage comes from not from mass but from disproportionate effect , i.e. those things you effect, i.e. those things you sort of mentioned in the start, really, but in terms of, you
9:42 am
know, either drones or cyber warfare and all that stuff, there is this tension between this sort of exotica of, uh, the future warfare which only really the americans can do with their r&d and scale and the reality that, uh, war remains visceral. people get killed and it's bloody and messy crisis. >> i actually find it. i mean, he's not saying this chip , but, he's not saying this chip, but, um, how what would your view be about the idea of bringing back national service, even if it was perhaps for one year? >> well , i perhaps for one year? >> well, i think if you just, um, if you just concentrate on personnel, you're not really getting a capability. a capability is the sum of training equipment, personnel, logistics, infrastructure . all logistics, infrastructure. all those things give you a capability just to have conscription , as in an armed conscription, as in an armed force doesn't buy you any capability. if you're talking about national service as a way of enabling civic citizenship and producing a good citizen, he might be, uh, know about these things. i've just been alluding
9:43 am
to them that might be a good thing. this sense of responsibility, which transcends the individual. okay >> brilliant. thank you. chief. major general chip chapman, national service . national service. >> i mean, a lot of people talk about it. >> national service. oh, i'm a big fan of national service, i think. yes, because that would then mean that these kids may not be so preoccupied by the wi—fi yeah, i, i wi—fi code in israel. yeah, i, i think i didn't used to think that, but i think i would be a fan now. right. senior fan of that now. right. senior tory mp sir simon clarke has called for rishi sunak to stand down as prime minister, or else the conservative party, he says, will face a massacre at the next general election. now this is the very same man who, back in october tweeted the october 2022, tweeted the following today the conservatives really need to unite really, extremely serious events are unfolding. >> country leadership . >> our country needs leadership. rishi the right person rishi sunak is the right person to assume the immense responsibility in prime minister. he will have my full support. well, that lasted a long and all of this comes long time and all of this comes at a time when civil service bosses change of
9:44 am
bosses have listed a change of government as one of their top wishes for this year. >> so are rishi sunak. wishes for this year. >> so are rishi sunak . days are >> so are rishi sunak. days are numbered . conservative mp for numbered. conservative mp for bracknell jane sunderland, joins us now for, uh. good morning. james we did say in our introduction that the knives are out for rishi sunak. >> it's a knife. it's only one really isn't it. >> it'sjust really isn't it. >> it's just one slightly useless knife, rather blunt knife. >> well, i'm a politician who believes in saying what i think. >> we're damned if we do and damned if we don't. whatever we say. but i think the decision last night by sir simon clarke repubuc last night by sir simon clarke republic was wrong. it was self—indulgent and irresponsible i >> -- >> well, it's interesting, james, you say that because of course, he was a minister in theresa, in liz truss pretty disastrous administration that lasted 49 days. and he says in his article in the telegraph, which, by the way, he didn't write this month because the giveaway january as opposed giveaway is january as opposed to which is written to this month, which is written in article , he says not in the article, he says it's not all rishi sunak's fault. uh, no. quite a lot of it, you could
9:45 am
argue, was his administer nation, which is liz truss's fault, which is why the tories are in a mess now are in such a mess now politically . politically. >> well, i don't want to go back over time. i think we spent a difficult we've had difficult parliament. we've had the are many the pandemic. there are many reasons you know, these reasons why, um, you know, these events unfold the way they do. but would say to you is but what i would say to you is that remain loyal to that people who remain loyal to liz truss boris johnson need liz truss and boris johnson need to over it. now we've got to get over it. now we've got a change of prime minister rishi sunak at helm. he's a good change of prime minister rishi sunéhet helm. he's a good change of prime minister rishi suné he is, helm. he's a good change of prime minister rishi suné he is, um,elm. he's a good change of prime minister rishi suné he is, um, an. he's a good change of prime minister rishi suné he is, um, a veryr's a good change of prime minister rishi suné he is, um, a very decent, d guy. he is, um, a very decent, very fair, very kind , but also very fair, very kind, but also very fair, very kind, but also very brave man . very fair, very kind, but also very brave man. um, he has very fair, very kind, but also very brave man . um, he has got very brave man. um, he has got lots of courage in terms of what he's doing so far. he's stepped up to the plate at a difficult time for the party. let's get behind him. um, and that's what i'm doing, james. >> that is classic politician speak, because the british pubuc speak, because the british public do not feel like that about rishi sunak. i admire your loyalty and those who think the conservative party has to pull together at the moment will be applauding you at home. but most
9:46 am
people start at home now. having a bacon and a cup of tea a bacon butty and a cup of tea are going. we don't see rishi sunak like that. we can't relate to seems unemotional. to him. he seems unemotional. how he possibly know what how can he possibly know what it's can't afford it's like if you can't afford your prepayment metre for your electricity? he's a gazillionaire going to gazillionaire and he's going to ride the sunset to be ride off into the sunset to be a technocrat. maybe you should be kicking out putting kicking him out and putting somebody before somebody else in before the election to give yourselves a fighting chance. >> team, suggestion of >> look, team, the suggestion of changing minister in an changing prime minister in an election year is just absolute fantasy nonsense . and at this fantasy nonsense. and at this point in time, at this point in time , i didn't know rishi at time, i didn't know rishi at all. actually, before we came, the prime minister. but, uh, but i've got to know him reasonably well. um he's got a good brain. his judgement is pretty good. leadership many, many leadership takes many, many forms. more than my forms. i've seen more than my fair of it for 27 years in fair share of it for 27 years in the army. and in my humble view, the army. and in my humble view, the leaders i ever served the best leaders i ever served with , iraq, northern with afghanistan, iraq, northern ireland, weren't people who ireland, they weren't people who fixed said , follow fixed bayonets and said, follow me, boys, over the top. they were people who were decent , who
9:47 am
were people who were decent, who had a good brain, who set the example, who led by example , example, who led by example, people who actually made the right and that is right decision. and that is rishi sunak . rishi sunak. >> james. um, there's going to be no leadership challenge. you. and i know that because there'd be pitchforks at dawn. people and i know that because there'd be pit(demandt dawn. people and i know that because there'd be pit(demand and vn. people and i know that because there'd be pit(demand and thenzople and i know that because there'd be pit(demand and then you're all would demand and then you're all going your seats. well, going to lose your seats. well, maybe they will, but can i ask you? actually, it's a fascinating we're having. fascinating debate we're having. we're twitter we're having a twitter poll about seen the in about it. you've seen on the in the today, general sir the telegraph today, general sir patrick of the patrick sanders, the head of the army, he's making a speech where patrick sanders, the head of the arrsayse's making a speech where patrick sanders, the head of the arrsays in making a speech where patrick sanders, the head of the arrsays in araking a speech where patrick sanders, the head of the arrsays in a future a speech where patrick sanders, the head of the arrsays in a future war»eech where patrick sanders, the head of the arrsays in a future war with where he says in a future war with russia, people are going to have to sign up, effectively a form of do you agree of conscription. do you agree with him? you think with him? and do you think people do it? would they people would do it? would they go fight for king and go and fight for king and country war in a far flung country in a war in a far flung country, russia ? country, perhaps like russia? >> it's a very bold call to make a very brave one. uh, national service, of course, went out many, many years ago. in fact, i think that there are people in their 80s now who who were the most recent batch of those to do national service. so what i would say is this i'm not averse
9:48 am
to the concept that very difficult to do politically. there's no appetite for it at all. um, but i do believe there is a need for more public service. there is a need for people to understand that the last 4 or 5, six decades of relative peace is unprecedented in our history , and that in our history, and that actually, if the balloon does go up, if there is an existential threat to the uk, either direct or through article five, nato , or through article five, nato, um, then we'll be required to pick up arms and fight against an aggressor, fight for our freedoms, as we did many occasions in the 20th century. all right. >> that's very interesting answer. that's james suddenly he's the conservative mp for bracknell. well, talking of fighting, donald trump did pretty good in new hampshire in the studio with us is the person who knows all about the republican party and the politics. the political journalist laurie led laurie. is it home and dry now? slam dunk , it home and dry now? slam dunk, to use the american expression? yes, i think it is. >> is it? >> is it? >> although i thought that after iowa and we covered new hampshire breathlessly and look,
9:49 am
i'm these things, hampshire breathlessly and look, i'nyou these things, hampshire breathlessly and look, i'nyou said. these things, hampshire breathlessly and look, i'nyou said. so these things, hampshire breathlessly and look, i'nyou said. so i these things, hampshire breathlessly and look, i'nyou said. so i watchediings, hampshire breathlessly and look, i'nyou said. so i watched every as you said. so i watched every bit of it. it was over before the polls even opened in new hampshire. i think nikki haley said, fight on. i'm said, i'm going to fight on. i'm scrappy. i don't think. i think her are numbered. it's her days are numbered. it's really expensive run really expensive to run a political campaign. well, i mean, desantis is $200,000. >> wasn't it? >> wasn't it? >> oh, he spent $500 million. >> oh, he spent $500 million. >> sorry , million. >> sorry, million. >> sorry, million. >> in the end, i think in iowa, he visited every county. >> he had corned dogs with people in iowa and didn't come anywhere near trump . and nikki anywhere near trump. and nikki haley was really counting on new hampshire because it's a it's a more centrist vote base. yeah, it didn't happen for her. i can't see her staying on because the next big event we've got an eventin the next big event we've got an event in nevada and then february 24th, the primary in her home state, donald trump is pulling that south. um, south carolina . carolina. >> yeah. so could she win that? no not chance. no not a chance. >> really. trump is pulling about 30 points ahead of her in her home state. i can't see that she wants that embarrassment. i can't and again expensive pulls
9:50 am
out. >> do they just call it for trump or does he go on against makeweights and lightweights? >> yes. i mean, there's a process that continues news, but we won't be paying that much attention i think attention to it. i think then we'll looking who was we'll start looking at who was his mate , what happens his running mate, what happens with court cases, and what with these court cases, and what did the democrats do? what will a democratic campaign gain look like now ? biden and his wife, like now? biden and his wife, kamala harris, and her husband all got together in northern virginia yesterday. did a bit of a rally. the theme was abortion rights, and i think that's where the democrats are going to go. hard >> yeah, because i mean , they've >> yeah, because i mean, they've got themselves in a terrible panic about this. the republicans haven't they? i mean, it should it should be down to individual states. shouldn't that's shouldn't it decide that's exactly what happened. >> court said a, >> so the supreme court said a, a right to abortion is no longer it's no longer a national right. yeah. throw it back to the states . now i think what if we states. now i think what if we had a braver legislature in the uk? this shouldn't be a judicial
9:51 am
issue. no, the right to abortion . this is something that lawmakers should look at. it's not going to happen. we don't have a very, um, let's say brave legislature right now. >> and it's what i guess people read into that debate , don't read into that debate, don't they, about abortion. it it resonate for so many issues about religious an about freedom of choice, about bodily autonomy. so even though even if people don't have a strong opinion on abortion, they might have a strong opinion on an issue around any of those. >> i think you're right. >> and i think you're right. that's it down to india that's it comes down to india original choice. and can the judiciary affect that on it? can states affect that? but it's a really strong issue for the democrats. >> make that a big central issue in his campaign. >> that's a i think that's scary to think in 2024. >> the abortion becomes a major issue when it should be about the 2024. >> in the world's biggest economy. >> and that's what we are talking about . and most talking about. and most americans support court a right to abortion with some degree, some limits. but that's the
9:52 am

10:10 am
think the point that patrick is going to make , and i agree with going to make, and i agree with it, is we're complacent. we think that war can't happen. and that our opponents don't have hostile intentions towards us. i can tell you china , russia, can tell you china, russia, iran, north korea are all on a war footing now . uh, and if they war footing now. uh, and if they can use force, they will do . can use force, they will do. >> why, chris? why now ? >> why, chris? why now? >> why, chris? why now? >> well, uh, there's a number of reasons. one is the fact is we have got complacent and weak in the west . uh, our politicians the west. uh, our politicians have forgotten how to use statecraft and to threaten and to use force. if you look back into the 1950s, we had people who were familiar with total war in the second world war. they knew how to talk to their opponents , and they also knew opponents, and they also knew how to say when. we needed to threaten force to actually get our way and make sure that people didn't step over the line . and, uh, we're allowing appeasement to happen. if you look at every crisis in the
10:11 am
world today, you can lay it at the inaction of president obama. and i'm afraid to say the cameron osborne regime, if you look at crimea, you look at syria , or you look at iran , syria, or you look at iran, every single crisis, including what is happening in the south china sea with taiwan and other things, you can lay at the feet. i'm afraid of appeasing regimes that existed at the start of the last decade , isn't the answer, last decade, isn't the answer, chris. >> rather than having an army of untrained conscripts who may not have any enthusiasm for the conflict a properly conflict to have a properly trained military capability , uh, trained military capability, uh, the army is at its lowest level even the army is at its lowest level ever, ever. and it's not about numbers. >> it's about what you can do to the enemy. uh, you don't always need lots of people know this country is a maritime nation . country is a maritime nation. um, you know, it's unusual. country is a maritime nation. um, you know, it's unusual . all um, you know, it's unusual. all i'm afraid for it to have a large standing army. what we need to do is leave the panzer stuff to the poles , the germans, stuff to the poles, the germans, the continental powers that need to do that. they're our nato
10:12 am
allies . what we need are forces. allies. what we need are forces. and i've said it many times over the last couple years that the last couple of years that are impact and low are high impact and low footprint. translates in footprint. that's translates in the past as expeditionary. we want to be on the ground, hit people hard, get away again. uh, as i said, leave the high footprint stuff to those that need to hold land in europe and elsewhere . and we need a elsewhere. and we need a fundamental rethink of how we do this. we've seen in ukraine, for example, which is essentially the last . war of the 20th the last. war of the 20th century in the way it's being fought and new technologies you don't need for example, helicopters to do reconnaissance . so when you can get drones to do it. >> chris, i'm still a bit sorry. i'm just i'm still a bit baffled as to what when i said, why now? i mean, why would countries like china and russia and north korea be footing now, just it be on a war footing now, just it might just be my stupidity. this is not my area of specialism whatsoever. but is it because i think what you're saying is they see as having weakened and see us as having weakened and resources to take them on, and
10:13 am
therefore they want to take advantage of that? >> not just that. it's >> no, it's not just that. it's a question political courage. a question of political courage. and afraid statecraft as and i'm afraid statecraft as i said, uh, people like xi jinping and putin will use force in support of their diplomacy. now they think they can get away with it. i mean, they have got away with it. uh, you look at xi jinping , uh, he promised jinping, uh, he promised president he wouldn't president obama he wouldn't militarise the south sea . militarise the south china sea. and got over eight and yet we've got over eight heavily militarised fortified structures that act as airfields and also ports in support of the people's liberation army. we've seen , uh, putin invade ukraine seen, uh, putin invade ukraine completely breaking apart the security structure that's existed since 1945. she hadn't noticed. he's also threatened us with nuclear weapons if we if we interfere these people are pushing the edges of the whole complacent sort of structure that we've had in place since 1945. and the problem is, we're not taking them seriously . um, not taking them seriously. um, totalitarians in my experience, always do what they say they'll
10:14 am
do. and right now they're saying, uh, we're pretty insecure in our own countries. we're going to externalise those insecurities and push against our enemies. so go around the world again. we've seen russia push on ukraine. if it gets away with it in ukraine, you'll see pressure on in finland, sweden and the baltic states next. uh, if . you don't push back on china if. you don't push back on china , it will blockade taiwan. it will take over the south china sea. iran iran is already destabilising the greater middle east. and last week we heard from kim jong un that actually he wants to take on south korea. i mean, they are actually promising, you know , what they promising, you know, what they want to do. >> can i just ask you one last question, chris? you did mention that we're a maritime nation. we've got two enormous aircraft carriers anchored portsmouth carriers anchored in portsmouth harbour . carriers anchored in portsmouth harbour. we're carriers anchored in portsmouth harbour . we're fighting harbour. we're fighting we're sending planes with to bomb the houthi rebels from cyprus. why aren't being deployed if we aren't they being deployed if we aren't they being deployed if we are such a power, if we really want to be serious s about
10:15 am
repressing the threat in the red sea . sea. >> yeah. we're not needed. um, there's an american strike carrier there that can more than handle the issues . carrier there that can more than handle the issues. um, we've carrier there that can more than handle the issues . um, we've got handle the issues. um, we've got hms diamond and a type 23 frigate on station as well . frigate on station as well. that's exactly what we need to supplement what the americans are doing there. if we put a carrier there , if we put other carrier there, if we put other assets there, they simply become targets. you have to defend them . there's absolutely no point in deploying a carrier now if deploying a carrier right now if the americans want to redeploy the americans want to redeploy the carrier elsewhere , that's the carrier elsewhere, that's fine. but can i just circle back and say , we don't have to have and say, we don't have to have national service or anything like that, which is what people are getting wrapped around the axle on, uh , i mean, there are axle on, uh, i mean, there are seven european countries that do have service. they have national service. they haven't but we haven't got rid of it, but we can lot more with our can do a lot more with our reserve structure. we can do a lot more with retired veterans, but we do have to get into a mentality which we could be mentality which says we could be at war. trotsky had a very famous quotation. he said, you might interested in war, might not be interested in war, but is really interested in but war is really interested in you , and we've got to live with
10:16 am
that. >> all right. that's rear admiral chris parry , thanks so admiral chris parry, thanks so much for joining admiral chris parry, thanks so much forjoining us. the much for joining us. well, the senior sir simon senior tory mp, sir simon clarke, for rishi sunak clarke, called for rishi sunak to stand down as prime minister. >> right. or the >> that's right. or else the conservative will conservative party will face a mass hooker at the next general election. we're joined election. he says. we're joined now editor of the now by former editor of the independent, blackhurst. independent, chris blackhurst. good when this good morning, chris. when this news , i can see you news broke, i can see you slightly shaking head slightly shaking your head there. chris this news there. chris when this news broke we thought broke last night, we thought maybe would have up maybe we would have woken up this morning might be this morning and there might be ten, 15 more politicians ten, 11, 12, 15 more politicians calling go. hasn't calling for him to go. hasn't happened.soisit calling for him to go. hasn't happened. so is it just a storm in a teacup? and it will go away? no it's not a storm in a teacup. >> it's. it's just teacup. >> it's. it'sjust a >> it's. it's just a room. it's a rumbling issue. and, um, it's not going away. the there are people in the party who don't like him, who don't want him , like him, who don't want him, uh, who don't believe he can win the election. but equally , we're the election. but equally, we're getting nearer and nearer to an election , and we can't have election, and we can't have another change of leader. >> for if they do, if they did do it, chris, wouldn't. there have to be a general election in
10:17 am
immediately? i mean, because i think otherwise people are going to be descending on down and see with their pitchforks demanding a revolution . ian. yeah, it'll a revolution. ian. yeah, it'll be the people's army, the ones that signing for that were all signing up for conscripts to fight in ukraine. >> um, it will be. look, it'll be absolutely bizarre, but these have been the most bizarre years of my lifetime . um, i've seen of my lifetime. um, i've seen nothing . 49 days. simon clarke nothing. 49 days. simon clarke was her supporter. >> i think we're losing you. >> i think we're losing you. >> we've lost you, chris. it's a poor line. we'll have to come back to chris. that was the former editor of the independent. um chris blackhurst . well, we've talked about donald better donald trump and who better to talk donald than here? talk to donald trump than here? he . he is. >> greg. good morning. greg swenson is with right. so swenson is with us. right. so just people anybody's just remind people if anybody's tuning what tuning in now at 1017, what happened night and why is happened last night and why is it yeah it significant? yeah >> won the new hampshire >> trump won the new hampshire primary it's clear he has primary. it's clear that he has a path to winning. i don't think
10:18 am
there's any chance or very little chance that nikki haley there's any chance or very little twin.:e that nikki haley there's any chance or very little twin. but|at nikki haley there's any chance or very little twin. but it nikki haley there's any chance or very little twin. but it wasn'thaley there's any chance or very little twin. but it wasn't an ey could win. but it wasn't an overwhelming defeat of mrs. haley , that 12. haley, that 12. >> was it something like 10 to 12. >> right. the polls had been indicating this is all about momentum , right. he outperformed momentum, right. he outperformed in iowa . you know, the polls in iowa. you know, the polls were saying 20. he won by 30. the polls were saying , you know, the polls were saying, you know, he'd he'd pull in the high 40s. he up in the low 50s. so he ended up in the low 50s. so and new hampshire was the opposite. he was expected to beat nikki haley by at least 20. at least that's what the polls were saying. and he ended up winning by 11. nikki haley got much more of the independent vote anticipated. she vote than was anticipated. she was polling around 49 with independents. she ended up at 60. are john mccain 60. those are john mccain numbers from 2000 and 2008, where he surprised everybody and won iowa. so you know, this was this was a better night for nikki haley. >> just expected but just elaborate on that a little bit because those people who are voting for nikki haley were not
10:19 am
republicans. they were independents they were democrats. >> absolutely. and why >> absolutely. and this is why i don't think that , you know, this don't think that, you know, this was is she's rallying was this is she's not rallying republican trump has republican support. trump has locked up the republican vote . locked up the republican vote. some the primaries allow some of the primaries allow independents to cross over and vote in the republican primary. some don't . so that's why, some don't. so that's why, again, trump crushed it in iowa. didn't really crush it in new hampshire. one no, doubt. hampshire. one no, no doubt. i don't i don't think there's any turning back at this point for, you know, for the support that trump's getting. but yes, the like mccain nikki haley is getting independent and moderate and even dems that support that . and even dems that support that. it is good for winning election in the general election, but for not republican primary. >> so he he's cruising for the nomination . nomination. >> it looks that way. >> it looks that way. >> a lot of speculation will be on his running mates. we saw the guy standing right behind him tim scott. yeah. is that do you think be the one that think he could be the one that would smart? would be smart? >> i, i until the last 24 hours, his name renee was bantered around in those conversations.
10:20 am
so come and go for that. so people come and go for that. from it's a of from that list. it's a lot of speculation, but tim scott is a great conservative. i mean , he's great conservative. i mean, he's a much more of a movement philosophical conservative than trump . and he's got a really trump. and he's got a really great story. and he's you know, he's a very positive optimist quy- he's a very positive optimist guy. he could be a good counter and he's black. he's black. yes i mean that it's not something, you know, identity politics isn't something that conservatives usually run with or lead with. but if it helps in an election, great. and biden is polling, he's down 30 points from where he was in 2020 with african americans. african americans are looking for this moment to support. >> why has he lost that? >> why has he lost that? >> why has he lost that? >> horrible? because because biden and he's useless. he is. i mean, he's polling at 31 on the economy. real wages are down 2.5. it's a mess. he's polling at 33 on foreign policy and on the border. he's pulling at 18 on this is immigration. absolutely. >> and it's a lot of the black. it's a lot of the black
10:21 am
americans who are alarmed by the immigration. >> their, you know, traditional conservatives in many ways , conservatives in many ways, especially in the south, that they are looking for a moment. so you know, democrats usually get 90, 92% of african get 90, 90, 92% of african american vote right now they're polling at 60. this could be an electoral disaster for the democrats. >> what happens next, greg? what's the next step in this journey? >> now the big one is south carolina. and you saw nikki haley last night, said she's going to stay. think if trump going to stay. i think if trump had won that's where she's had won by that's where she's from. was the governor from. she she was the governor of south carolina and she's going in south carolina. going to lose in south carolina. so i don't think be so i don't think it will be a great moment for her. but if trump had won 25 or 30 last trump had won by 25 or 30 last night, then i think she'd have to out. i think there's to drop out. i think there's a risk that she loses in south carolina. embarrassing for, carolina. it's embarrassing for, you her home state to vote you know, her home state to vote for and it's much for trump. and it's much more conservative than new hampshire, which lane that he's which that's a lane that he's doing well with so doing really well with now. so i think there's a risk of her losing badly in south carolina. but i understand why she's staying in. and there's a last night was better than she.
10:22 am
>> there's a big difference between nikki haley and donald trump in terms of their messaging isn't there? absolutely. being absolutely. she is being characterised think she characterised as and i think she probably the globalist . yeah. probably is the globalist. yeah. ron desantis called her the reheated corporatism she reheated corporatism that she represents . um, donald represents. yeah. um, and donald trump is talking about bringing down that's down that establishment that's writing for the people on the streets. water between them. >> think haley %- mm— >> i think nikki haley. yet there's huge difference. and there's a huge difference. and that's she's getting much that's why she's getting much support that moderate and support in that moderate and independent lane. yeah, but very little support in the conservative republican party line. >> when i saw that she was a former ambassador to the united nations, my heart completely sank. she was very useless organisation. she that the organisation. she that the organisation is and i think she was critical of her. >> so i'll give her that much. but a chance for nikki but this is a chance for nikki haley to reposition herself, maybe reach out to a different lane. oh, absolutely. i mean, this is this is in many ways about 28. >> okay. thank you. greg great to see you. right. today we are asking and fight asking would you go and fight for your country. if not, why not. so far, 60% of you say that you would not.

10:28 am
who attempts to take his own life, parents come and life, his parents come in and discover and what's discover him. and then what's quite interesting is it goes into a whole scenario where he passes and you see the passes away and you see the effects of his death on his family, particularly his siblings and his parents. and then the video goes right back to the beginning and replays. but it's as if he survived . but it's as if he survived. well, it's he survives. so well, it's when he survives. so you see the same sort of scenes happening, but with him there. >> and want this in schools. >> and you want this in schools. fabio we want in schools. fabio we want it in schools. >> look. >> have a look. >> have a look. >> sounds like it would be >> it sounds like it would be very useful for teenagers to watch we go.

10:43 am
herself for four years time? >> she may be trying to position itself four years time, but you know , it's not a good thing to know, it's not a good thing to upset the base, is it? it's not a good thing to make the base think. look, we've got to turn out now and super tuesday comes up on march the 5th, where a dozen states are voting. and she's got to be very, very careful not to damage her reputation . long time, um , reputation. long time, um, nigel, we want to. >> warsaw while you're here, talk about this story. that's in the papers today about the fact that if we go to war, that the head of the army is saying that the public might be called up to go and fight for the country. we've got a twitter poll running, and there's a very much 6040 at the moment. i thought it might be more i wouldn't might be more saying i wouldn't go and fight for this lot. under no circumstances i'd like to see them what's them on the front line. what's your this issue? because your take on this issue? because it does raise something actually quite doesn't it does raise something actually qui'well, doesn't it does raise something actually qui'well, think doesn't it does raise something actually qui'well, think therel't it does raise something actually qui'well, think there are two >> well, i think there are two things to say. i mean, the first things to say. i mean, the first thing is, if you perceive a threat to your or threat to your family or country, your way of life and
10:44 am
that threat appeared to be direct. and i think you might have a very different point of view. but the other worry i've got is , what about all these got is, what about all these people marching in the streets of london, the pro—palestinian demonstrators seem to object demonstrators who seem to object to everything we've stood for ever since the balfour declaration of 1917? i mean, if we call those up, what do we do when they refuse? so i think this is quite complex. i think the real answer is not to keep reducing the size of the army, the air force and the navy in the air force and the navy in the way in which we are. >> do you think he's kite flying on behalf of the government ? on behalf of the government? because it's quite an unusual intervention , i don't know, no , intervention, i don't know, no, i think what he's doing is playing quite a clever game, actually. >> i think what he's saying is, look, are cutting our look, you are cutting our services down to a level at which cannot meet basic which we cannot meet basic commitments, let alone go to war. so let's frighten the population . let's get a negative population. let's get a negative reaction . and maybe then the reaction. and maybe then the
10:45 am
government might just start to rebuild our forces. government might just start to rebuild our forces . and it is an rebuild our forces. and it is an extraordinary 14 years of conservative rule. the extent to which they degraded all three of the armed services . the armed services. >> and you used to think about the conservatives were always seen as tough on immigration, tough on defence. and they've lost their way on both . lost their way on both. >> mhm. >> mhm. >> well options were changed 30 years ago under john major saw years ago underjohn major saw the biggest peacetime cuts since 1961. in terms of the size of the army in particular. and the amalgamation of many historic regiments . and we've had the regiments. and we've had the same process again in under a conservative government this time round. um, well, either keir starmer's defence policy would be more robust. remains to be seen . be seen. >> we spoke earlier, nigel, to rear admiral chris parry, who was saying that he thinks that china , north korea, russia are china, north korea, russia are already on a war footing because they smell blood in a weakened west . i wasn't entirely west. i wasn't entirely convinced by his argument for
10:46 am
that. are you? >> oh, absolutely . i think chris >> oh, absolutely. i think chris is dead, right. i mean, look, i think the signal was the withdrawal of the last 3000 american troops from afghanistan. they weren't there in a fighting no american soldier had been killed in the previous 18 months. they were training and helping the afghan army fight taliban . biden, army fight taliban. biden, without any reference to us or the nato allies with drew those troops. we saw the fall of kabul troops. we saw the fall of kabul. taliban back in charge. and before you know, it, putin has decided to invade ukraine. week western leadership has contributed . a huge amount to contributed. a huge amount to where we are in the world today. >> i'm talking of wars. your colleague richard tice . of colleague richard tice. of course. we're going to speak to him a little later. he's in ukraine. he's taken a great convoy military aid there. convoy of military aid there. are we going see you in a are we going to see you in a convoy taking convoy to ukraine, taking military aid? >> i don't think so, >> nigel, i don't think so, andrew. no. good for richard, if that's what people want to do, then good for them. um, i, i
10:47 am

11:15 am
front line, but i think she's there to rishi, if you look at her voting she votes for her voting record, she votes for net and actually, if i try net zero. and actually, if i try googung net zero. and actually, if i try googling um, it seems googling myself, um, it seems even she was on the even though she was on the london assembly and a councillor, there's nothing london assembly and a councvery there's nothing london assembly and a councvery little 's nothing london assembly and a councvery little 's notiprior to there very little there prior to that. she said about that. about what she said about brexit anything. so you know, brexit or anything. so you know, i want i, i'd actually i don't want i, i'd actually rather rishi kemi . so rather have rishi than kemi. so that lot. that's that says a lot. that's interesting. if you could who interesting. so if you could who else would have there if it else would you have there if it wasn't i mean it's, wasn't rishi. well i mean it's, it's, got to be a true it's, it's got to be a true conservative. um, but the right's got to unite, you know, we've got jacob, we've got pretty, we've got suella, um, three decent, know, people three decent, you know, people there. but what i'd like to there. um, but what i'd like to see is as get behind one of them because we ain't got enough. probably only a third of us are the centre conservatives the centre right conservatives in parliamentary party. so in the parliamentary party. so if we're not careful , we'll get if we're not careful, we'll get two one nation to rishi on the ballot. and that is a problem. we've got to unite behind one. yeah >> penny mordaunt comes to mind. are the leader of the commons wielding hinckley, wielding her ceremonial sword. but she still gets huge public. she for some
11:16 am
reason globalist sword. >> andrew, good to see you. right uh, pmqs kicks off at midday today. it's going to be busy joining us from westminster is our political correspondent olivia utley. good morning olivia. hello hello. how is it going to be today. do you think ? going to be today. do you think? >> okay. well we all thought it was going to be a bit of a quiet pmqs yesterday day. yesterday the news was the, uh, strike on rebels in the red sea and rishi sunak and keir starmer had a had a very amicable conversation about it. so we all thought today was going to be a bit dry. and then last night the news broke that a senior conservative mp is calling on rishi sunak to resign. wrote a scathing resign. he wrote a scathing opinion in the telegraph opinion piece in the telegraph in which he said that rishi sunak's uninspiring leadership was an obstacle to the conservatives recovery and that absolutely put the wind up number 10. advisers close to number 10. advisers close to number 10. advisers close to number 10 were were very worried that other mps might follow in simon clarke's footsteps as it
11:17 am
happened that that's not really how it played out. most conservative mps actually ended up rowing in behind the prime minister, including some very unlikely allies like liz truss , unlikely allies like liz truss, who said that she didn't support simon clarke's , uh, statement simon clarke's, uh, statement and priti patel, the former home secretary no friend of the prime minister at all. she, too, said that now isn't the time for a new conservative leader. so what i'm expecting to see at prime minister's questions this morning is for keir starmer to have a bit of fun with this, uh, resignation letter from sir simon clarke. but then actually, it might not be that difficult for rishi sunak. conservative mps will rally around. this is almost the moment they've been waiting for to show that they are actually loyal to their leader. so i don't think today will be too tough for the prime minister. said, the fact minister. that said, the fact that a senior conservative, along with another senior conservative, andrea jenkins, of course, have now publicly called for rishi sunaks dismissal, isn't good news for the prime
11:18 am
minister. simon clarke was rishi's number two in the treasury. he was chief secretary to the treasury when the prime minister was chancellor, and anything like this just goes to it's another it's another blow, if you like, to rishi sunak's leadership, another, another dentin leadership, another, another dent in his shield. so although in the short time he's probably going to be okay in the long terme , this is not something terme, this is not something that his allies want to hear. >> all right. that's olivia utley. our westminster correspondent. of course, we have our fabulous new, uh, west palm promises questions program with chris scott, our political editor , and gloria de piero . so editor, and gloria de piero. so stay tuned for that. >> uh , still to come this >> uh, still to come this morning for emily spar demolition. the clear out has begun on captain tom moore's family's law luxury complex. after they were ordered to knock it down by february 7th. if you remember, he raised all that money for the nhs , didn't all go money for the nhs, didn't all go to the nhs, did it? anyway, it didn't, uh, stay with us. this is, uh, britain's newsroom on

descend on the capitol. i know there's a debate about what exactly what he said to that crowd and whether he encouraged the violence. but the pattern over those two months, uh, displayed a clear, uh, contempt for the system. we have in the united states of choosing a president. uh, and there was a clear winner in 2020, uh, and he needed to acknowledge that. and that's how a representative democracy works . democracy works. >> richard. the republican voters in these primaries know all this, and they're voting in huge numbers because he's managed to portray himself as a victim of the establishment . victim of the establishment. stitch up. the election was his, uh, and, and all the criminal charges, all the indictments are all part of the democrat establishment stitch up and it's winning him support not going the other way . the other way. >> well, right now in the primaries . yes. uh, but it's primaries. yes. uh, but it's a small percentage of americans who vote in the primaries, uh, compared with the general election. and unfortunately, we've seen a polarisation of our

two political parties . uh, and two political parties. uh, and we see some hard left, uh, voters show out for the democratic primaries . uh, who democratic primaries. uh, who will believe anything that the far left tells them? we see, uh, far left tells them? we see, uh, far right people show up for the republican parties, and it's the same thing. uh, what you end up with is an election where a lot of the voters are dissatisfied with the alternatives. come november, uh, when this happens , november, uh, when this happens, uh, and unfortunately, yes , we uh, and unfortunately, yes, we have seen a polarisation of our parties where ideology , uh, is parties where ideology, uh, is more important to a lot of voters than the fundamental principles of a representative democracy that our constitution is based on. >> but ideology is important because that's what a lot of a lot of people will vote on their ideology, and you can't deny it. >> it's almost extraordinary that we're having this conversation again to trump represents these represents something to these people the people that people. all the people that hillary called the hillary clinton called the basket there is basket of deplorables. there is a gap in these people's lives that they feel that donald trump will fill, they feel that he
