surface to air missile in a houthi controlled area of the country and determined that it presented an imminent threat to us aircraft. well, earlier today, yemen's houthis said they'd continue targeting us and british warships in the red sea. they say in self—defence . here, they say in self—defence. here, the government's refused to rule out relying on imported steel after the planned closure of blast furnaces at port talbot in wales , executives from tata wales, executives from tata steel were questioned in westminster today about the plans, which will put nearly 3000 jobs at risk. the company says it's moving to more environmentally friendly production of steel, which requires fewer staff. it's infuriated steel workers, many of whom have staged protests outside parliament this morning warning of the impact on local communities and the wider welsh economy. and lastly , labour says economy. and lastly, labour says it's going to set out plans to renationalise britain's railways next month. the party announced the news last year, but speaking

matthew, the people who are in the country, they are not detained. >> so we do not we cannot pinpoint , >> so we do not we cannot pinpoint, uh, a precise location, but for the vast majority, we have contact details , uh, and we use those details, uh, and we use those contact details to seek to re—establish contact with them if they so know, then. >> so what happens when they go missing? >> so do we now know what's happened to the remainders who have no legal basis on which to still be in the united kingdom, the home office, through our different mechanisms of tracing , different mechanisms of tracing, people are continuing to seek to trace them. >> so when people do disengage , >> so when people do disengage, and i think that's a more accurate word than go missing, when people do disengage from us, we respond to that. >> so they tried to phone them up phones that probably no up on phones that probably no longer the of longer exist. note the use of language. there okay. home secretary cleverly says secretary james cleverly says they're not missing . they've they're not missing. they've disengaged . well, it's not disengaged. well, it's not called the disengaged children's list, is it? they're missing. okay to be more precise, he's lost them. another complete fudge. now stop the boats, they

said. well, despite claiming boat crossings are down, we've actually got around 35,000 people this year. apparently >> what constitutes most of the non little boat people out of that 33,085, some will come through the various ferry ports, some will arrive at our airports either with fraudulent documents. >> we also have the common travel area where we do see movement across between the repubuc movement across between the republic of ireland and the united kingdom . but there are a united kingdom. but there are a range of ways in which that that can happen. okay, another inspirational looking chap there, illegal routes into there, other illegal routes into britain obvious on the up. britain are obvious on the up. >> here are some other revelations. so we passed the illegal migration bill, which is supposed people supposed to stop people being able engage in the asylum able to engage in the asylum process if they've entered britain illegally. we are still letting them engage . why? well, letting them engage. why? well, because we haven't got returns agreements with their home countries , so nothing has countries, so nothing has changed there. here's another home for you. if they home truth for you. if they haven't already gone missing , haven't already gone missing, you're still paying for them. why why? because otherwise

they'd be destitute . apparently they'd be destitute. apparently there have been around ten reports commissioned by the home office into illegal immigration that never been published. that have never been published. and chap who helped write and the chap who helped write those has not had those reports has now not had his contract renewed. it is no longer called an asylum seeker backlog . by the way, it's now backlog. by the way, it's now the queue. so we've cleared the backlog by renaming it a queue . backlog by renaming it a queue. this is complete chaos. reports are not being published. politicians and civil servants are engaging in orwellian mind games renaming things like games by renaming things like the word missing. they do not appear to be enforcing legislation, mainly because it is unenforceable . they is seemingly unenforceable. they are or hiding relevant are burying or hiding relevant information, and myriad different documents. so not only can journalists like me not really get hold of it, but neither can members of the select committee looking select committee who are looking them directly in the eye and asking them for it. it is a scandal, but at least tim nice—but—dim has got a massive pension and a knighthood . let's pension and a knighthood. let's get the thoughts now of my top panel get the thoughts now of my top panel. we are joined by the editor at large at the mail on

sunday, charlotte griffiths . sunday, charlotte griffiths. we've got every man and freedom fighter and activist adam brooks and author and journalist rebecca reid. thank you very much for joining rebecca reid. thank you very much forjoining me tonight. much for joining me tonight. adam i'll start with you on this . are you just sick of it now? i am , and i'm sick the lies am, and i'm sick of the lies from this government. am, and i'm sick of the lies from thi governmentit. am, and i'm sick of the lies from thi government put out. you >> this government put out. you know, we're going to tackle this . this. these are figures. . this. these are the figures. they're always know they're always wrong. we know there's a problem. our system is being gamed by people from all over the world. we're a laughing stock. they know if they come here, they get housed, they get fed , they get free health care , fed, they get free health care, of which many people that are born in this country do not get now. we won't deport them . that now. we won't deport them. that is the main thing. now. we won't deport them. that is the main thing . people from is the main thing. people from abroad know that they can come here even if they're asylum application fails, they will still get housed. they will still get housed. they will still get housed. they will still get fed and they will still get fed and they will still get fed and they will still get health care. what have they got to lose? if i was in a poor country, not a war zone, because a lot of them are coming as economic migrants , we know as economic migrants, we know

that. you know what, that. i think you know what, i might go britain because i'll get things for free and get loads of things for free and they deport me. you know . they won't deport me. you know. and if stay there long enough, and if i stay there long enough, i my extended family i can bring my extended family over this is only over as well. this is only getting worse and it is a national emergency . national emergency. >> i've got my notes here that you might have a novel solution here involving essentially you might have a novel solution here in\things essentially you might have a novel solution here in\things essand ally you might have a novel solution here in\things essand starting ripping things up and starting again. oh yeah, well, my solution take the 250, 240 solution was take the 250, 240 million that we have spent on rwanda so far and pay them redundancy. >> i mean, you're going to disagree with that because they don't really deserve redundancy because they're so incompetent. >> wipes the slate >> if it's if it wipes the slate clean, wipe the slate clean, just wipe the slate clean, just wipe the slate clean, that, swallow clean, just wipe the slate cleaibill that, swallow clean, just wipe the slate cleaibill and that, swallow clean, just wipe the slate cleaibill and then|t, swallow clean, just wipe the slate cleaibill and then bringillow clean, just wipe the slate cleaibill and then bring in)w clean, just wipe the slate cleaibill and then bring in some that bill and then bring in some competent people, some professional people, some people with brains, coordination, common, decent, normal working people do things, you know? >> yeah. >> yeah. >> i mean, you're a dreamer, but yeah. no, i would be in favour of that. rebecca, you look at this. were this. now. we were in a situation genuinely laughable situation genuinely laughable situation these situation where it's like these people they've people aren't missing. they've disengaged or. no, no, it's not the backlog now. it's the queue . the backlog now. it's the queue. and you think they must really

be taking us for fools at this point? surely i mean, this isn't my government. point? surely i mean, this isn't my goveisn'tent. people like. >> this isn't the people i like. this my team this isn't my team. my team haven't had a crack at it yet. i'm hoping do i'm hoping we might do a slightly job. they're i'm hoping we might do a slightito job. they're i'm hoping we might do a slightito be job. they're i'm hoping we might do a slightito be worse. they're i'm hoping we might do a slightito be worse. ihey're i'm hoping we might do a slightito be worse. i iay're i'm hoping we might do a slightito be worse. i i don't going to be worse. i i don't know they could be worse. know how they could be worse. arade i genuinely don't. i arade dam. i genuinely don't. i mean, open mean, literally an open borders policy would probably be better than everyone's than this because everyone's cross and we're cross about this and we're wasting i think in wasting money. i think in some ways, incompetence worse than ways, incompetence is worse than a that don't disagree a policy that you don't disagree , that you agree with. and , that you don't agree with. and this just pure, unrelenting this is just pure, unrelenting incompetence . incompetence. >> i mean, kind of is well, >> i mean, it kind of is well, i mean, it absolutely is. >> time >> every time we try a deterrent, rwanda is a deterrent. we know that we're not to hundreds not going to ship hundreds of thousands . but thousands of people there. but if a migrant on the shores if i'm a migrant on the shores of france and i've just paid 6000 to come on a dinghy 6000 to come over on a dinghy and there's a 20% chance and i think there's a 20% chance or a 30% chance i'm going to end up in rwanda, i think twice, because think but calais is because i think but calais is really, really, really no picnic. >> rwanda would have be >> rwanda would have to be pretty bad for it to be worse than calais. and what you might end doing rwanda end up doing is making rwanda a fairly, fairly appealing prospect. on

prospect. but the and then on a human rights level, you can't make rwanda deliberately horrible. so either got to horrible. so either it's got to be unpleasant, therefore a deterrent. not great deterrent. therefore not great for human rights, or it's got to be it's be pleasant in which case it's not me. not a deterrent for me. >> think we start detaining >> i think if we start detaining them in camps , you know, one, them in camps, you know, one, two meals a day just to keep them alive , as soon as that gets them alive, as soon as that gets back over to calais, we're leaflet calais as well . and say leaflet calais as well. and say if you come over here, you're getting locked up, might get getting locked up, you might get one, day, but it's one, two meals a day, but it's not be no holiday not going to be no holiday camp like now. mean, like it is now. i mean, that would stop them trying. would stop many of them trying. >> true that they get >> it is true that they get given phones, don't they ? given mobile phones, don't they? so anecdotally so what the anecdotally apparently dump their apparently they dump their mobile phones and their id, then they mobile phones and they get given mobile phones and then lose his then james cleverly lose his them even though they've got a mobile . mobile phone. >> they going to call >> how are they going to call them don't phones? them if they don't have phones? how to tax them how are they going to tax them saying, please back and saying, please come back and they just saying, please come back and they the just saying, please come back and they the free just saying, please come back and they the free and just take the free phone and go, well, answer well, i'm not going to answer any calls makes them, if any calls if it makes them, if it makes anyone feel better, it makes anyone feel any better, it's it's just it's not an iphone. it's just it's not an iphone. it's just it's so well, it's a rubbish phone. so well, everyone calm down. everyone can calm down. >> nokia upload on tiktok. >> their journeys and tiktok. >> theirjourneys and things >> their journeys and things like seen

like that. you know, i've seen i've we've got i've seen that. but we've got the serious here is that the serious point here is that we've had terrorists, we've had rapists , we've had murderers, rapists, we've had murderers, gangsters, all come over illegally. now we're getting told that all the other routes for illegal immigration are on the as well. it's not just the rise. as well. it's not just the rise. as well. it's not just the the boats can be a the boat. so the boats can be a sideshow. can try and tackle sideshow. we can try and tackle the they're not the boats, which they're not doing, methods the boats, which they're not doilorries. methods the boats, which they're not doilorries. it's methods the boats, which they're not doilorries. it's getting methods the boats, which they're not doilorries. it's getting worse. ods on lorries. it's getting worse. we're going to get to a time where our high roads are filled with people that cannot speak where our high roads are filled with pe> have stay in >> you have to stay here in limbo. and the other thing that

cleverly in the in cleverly said is in, in the in his meeting that you his meeting today was that you know, it's actually too difficult to house these 33,000 missing they missing people because they can't can't afford can't we can't afford it obviously. so he's kind of admitting or it feels like a conspiracy. he's sort of admitting, it's actually admitting, well, it's actually not that inconvenient that we've lost we can't house lost them because we can't house them. can't afford to house them. we can't afford to house them. we can't afford to house them. you they're in limbo. >> know, think from from >> you know, i think from from my i sat through my perspective, i sat through the majority of that select the vast majority of that select committee and what committee hearing today and what really stood out for me was when they were asked very direct questions about things that really should really seriously you should know, that is your know, especially if that is your job. what they are clearly doing is storing data about is storing some data about certain things in one and certain things in one place, and then that might think then things that you might think were it. like were relevant to it. so like small crossings, where were relevant to it. so like smithey crossings, where were relevant to it. so like smithey registeredings, where were relevant to it. so like smithey registered or s, where were relevant to it. so like smithey registered or they're; are they registered or they're registered on a slightly different seekers different list of asylum seekers . so in to actually get . so in order to actually get out for out this information for somebody like me or people on this members of this panel or members of the public, have frankly, public, you would have frankly, no that information public, you would have frankly, no stored,at information public, you would have frankly, no stored,at inf

well. there are no answers for what we can do with these people. many them were people. how many of them were actually are actually lost? what we are actually lost? what we are actually try actually doing seriously to try and trace those people, if we can even if we do can trace them, even if we do trace them, where we trace them, where do we put them? and just the them? and you just realise the absolute that's absolute clown show that's taking moment, and taking place at the moment, and it wound me it clearly really wound me up. >> is >> but i think some of it is a function of the sort of inconsistency the government, inconsistency of the government, the we've so many the fact that we've had so many different charge. different people in charge. this is bad is a classic, classic bad workplace now. workplace management now. >> indeed. and those civil servants that you see next to james cleverly are the same civil servants . certainly civil servants. certainly matthew rycroft had to have been absolutely had their pants pulled numerous pulled down on numerous occasions really occasions now. and it really does make those keep their does make those guys keep their job of this. job right in all of this. there's they're job right in all of this. there'to they're job right in all of this. there'to there they're job right in all of this. there'to there in they're job right in all of this. there'to there in ahey're job right in all of this. there'to there in a change of going to be there in a change of government and are they same government and are they the same civil robert civil servants that robert german immigration german at the immigration minister me ? he minister said to me? he suggested should have an suggested that we should have an amnesty. i mean, if they are, it might make a lot of sense still to come, though. did nicola sturgeon under the sturgeon collapse under the pressure of the covid inquiry today? >> the idea that in those horrendous days, weeks i was thinking of a political

opportunity. i find , well, it's opportunity. i find, well, it's just it wasn't true . just it wasn't true. >> don't miss lee anderson teeing off on the former scottish first minister soon. but up next. so pharmacies in england, they're going to take over care from gps for seven common conditions. over care from gps for seven common conditions . and our common conditions. and our health service is spending billions of pounds a year on medical negligence claims. this does not spoken about does not get spoken about enough. you think the nhs is enough. do you think the nhs is actually safe for patients? and how reckon we spend how much do you reckon we spend every on compensation for every year on compensation for medical negligence ? jenny medical negligence? jenny barnett goes head to head with paula london. this patrick paula london. this is patrick christys tonight. only on christys tonight. we're only on itv

sunday mornings from 930 on gb news news . news news. >> it's punchy christie tonight only on gb news coming up lee anderson on nicola sturgeon's waterworks. but right now though, it's time for our head to head . so rishi sunak launched to head. so rishi sunak launched a new health care scheme. today that means millions of brits waiting for a gp appointment will now be able to visit their pharmacy instead. okay, you're going to be able to get treatments for seven common ailments from your pharmacist rather visit your gp. >> that is going to free up millions of gp appointments and ensure that you your family ensure that you and your family can care you need can get the care you need as quickly possible . quickly as possible. >> lovely backing music >> okay, lovely backing music there. the illness is included are a sore throat, earache, sore anasaitis, impetigo , shingles, anasaitis, impetigo, shingles, infected insect bites and

uncomplicated urinary tract infections in women. now currently . 1 in 6 english currently. 1 in 6 english patients are forced to wait at least two weeks for a gp appointment . but the problems in appointment. but the problems in the nhs persist when you actually do get seen by a medical professional. this pharmacy thing is a capitulation to the fact that we haven't got enough gps and people can't get appointments enough gps and people can't get appoithisznts enough gps and people can't get appoithis is s enough gps and people can't get appoithis is necessarily a good think this is necessarily a good thing, and i think could have thing, and i think it could have been solved people been solved by telling people who bit thick that who may be a bit too thick that they going to gps who may be a bit too thick that thethings going to gps who may be a bit too thick that thethings like going to gps who may be a bit too thick that thethings like a going to gps who may be a bit too thick that thethings like a littleing to gps who may be a bit too thick that thethings like a little soreo gps for things like a little sore throat. but what about medical negligence? spoken negligence? this is not spoken about enough when it comes to our nhs. the nhs forked out a staggering . £2.7 billion, staggering. £2.7 billion, settling medical negligence claims in 2022. that's across maternity care, emergency medicine, orthopaedic and general surgery that is an absolutely astounding number and some individual medical trusts as well. hospital trusts forked out tens of millions of pounds

on their own. so with that in mind, i am asking tonight, do you actually think that the nhs is safe for patients? let me know your thoughts. email me gbviews@gbnews.com. tweet me at gb news. while you're there, go and vote in our poll. i'll bring you those results very, very shortly . before we get our shortly. before we get to our debate, i do want expert debate, i do want some expert reaction to that initial pharmacy announcement . okay, i'm pharmacy announcement. okay, i'm joined doctor layla hambach, joined by doctor layla hambach, ceo of the association of independent multiple pharmacies. doctor how about look, thank you very, very much. let's just deal with that that matter with that that initial matter in hand. actual policy hand. so this actual policy right. this is us fobbing right. is this is us fobbing off people pharmacies . could people at pharmacies. could pharmacies actually miss things? is good thing ? go . on is it a good thing? go. on >> well, patrick, this has been going on in scotland. for example, the pharmacy first scheme, um, has been going on in scotland many, many months scotland for many, many months and the results have shown that patients actually quite like it because pharmacies always because pharmacies have always delivered at accessibility and convenience. so it's just, you know, popping up to your local pharmacy who people know

pharmacy who many people know already and then having those conversations in the consultation room with that answers. and are, you know, answers. and they are, you know, experts medicines expert experts in medicines and expert in, in common ailments. so why not are they qualified enough to say you've got a cough or that might be lung cancer? oh, of course . so and also it's very course. so and also it's very important that the public know that we are working based on some very strict rules in terms of like making sure that we ask the relevant questions and give the relevant questions and give the relevant questions and give the relevant treatment based on obviously those rules. so it's not something that patients should be or the public should be worried about because we've been there before, we've we've helped the nhs before and this time we're stepping up to that again . again. >> a pharmacist happy about this or they worried some of them or are they worried some of them about getting sued they get about getting sued if they get something wrong? about getting sued if they get sonwell1g wrong? about getting sued if they get sonwell ,] wrong? about getting sued if they get sonwell , we'veg? about getting sued if they get sonwell , we've always been there >> well, we've always been there in terms of like telling the nhs that we want to be there to support and, you know, during the , we kept our doors the pandemic, we kept our doors open and were one of the only

open and we were one of the only places where people could go to when everywhere else were shut. but there but we've always been there helping the public. however, what happened over the past what has happened over the past few years is that our funding has been cut and whilst everything else has been going up, energy costs and, you know, fuel costs and on are funding fuel costs and so on are funding has been going down, down and therefore many pharmacies struggling to keep their heads above the water. >> so this might actually help i suppose in that regard it suppose in that regard when it comes getting people comes to getting more people through right. comes to getting more people througlook, right. comes to getting more people througlook, thank right. comes to getting more people througlook, thank you right. comes to getting more people througlook, thank you veryt. comes to getting more people througlook, thank you very much. well, look, thank you very much. reassuring in terms of well, look, thank you very much. rea actual in terms of well, look, thank you very much. rea actual qualityn terms of well, look, thank you very much. rea actual quality oferms of well, look, thank you very much. rea actual quality of care of the actual quality of care people might get in a pharmacy, that's doctor humbug there. who is the ceo of the association of independent multiple pharmacies. so a lot of so good stuff. i know a lot of people very, very people felt very, very self—conscious wandering self—conscious about wandering into especially into a pharmacy, especially if you've got urinary tract infection something. infection or something. but what she is, you're most she says there is, you're most likely a private likely to be seen in a private room, may alleviate likely to be seen in a private room, of may alleviate likely to be seen in a private room, of nbut alleviate likely to be seen in a private room, of nbut that'seviate likely to be seen in a private room, of nbut that's the e some of that. but that's the state of play in pharmacies. what about actual hospitals now? and i think people miss this. okay, as i mentioned earlier , okay, as i mentioned earlier, medical negligence claims are being rate being made at a staggering rate to tune billions of

to the tune of billions of pounds. so do you think that the nhs is actually safe for patients going head to head on this? our social commentator and actress jenny barnett, up against paula against broadcaster paula london. you, thank you london. both of you, thank you very, . paula, do you very, very much. paula, do you think the nhs is safe? >> not really . >> not really. >> not really. >> i mean there's good doctors, there's bad doctors, but a late family mine was lied there's bad doctors, but a late fan um mine was lied there's bad doctors, but a late fanum in mine was lied there's bad doctors, but a late fanum in intensive nine was lied there's bad doctors, but a late fanum in intensive care.nas lied there's bad doctors, but a late fanum in intensive care. he lied there's bad doctors, but a late fanum in intensive care. he was to. um in intensive care. he was told by a neurologist if he had a tracheotomy , he would never be a tracheotomy, he would never be able to eat again or speak again. and that was a complete lie. i pulled him up and then he apologised to me. he said that because my family because he wanted my family member to come off a machine, basically, life , basically, and lose their life, he ended up living a lot longer because i knew what the neurologist was a lie. so neurologist said was a lie. so no, i don't think it's safe and you really need to call out doctors. you need to be assertive and not believe everything that they tell you. many years ago we didn't have google, we believed google, so we believed everything a doctor says. everything that a doctor says. now you can research your symptoms , you can research your symptoms, you can research your symptoms, you can research your symptoms your member symptoms of your family member and doctor questions.

and ask the doctor questions. they like you using they don't like you using google, google away is what google, but google away is what i knowledge is power , so i say. knowledge is power, so i don't doctors. 100% at don't trust doctors. 100% at all. jenny two and a bit billion pounds a year in medical negligence thing . negligence thing. >> you add that or pick that apart. i should say. really, you look at numerous different maternity scandals. i mean, there's absolutely staggering maternity scandals. i mean, there'ofibsolutely staggering maternity scandals. i mean, there'of maternity staggering maternity scandals. i mean, there'of maternity scandals,] level of maternity scandals, right the country. i just right across the country. i just wonder, seriously, all this window dressing about pharmacies and gp appointment and waiting lists, we missing the key lists, are we missing the key point here, which is that actually is not that actually the nhs is not that safe for the people who need it . safe for the people who need it. >> don't agree at all. i think the nhs is absolutely safe. i've spent it today. i was in hospital. my old man's been treated for cancer and i nearly lost my sight for something else. but the treatment that you get is remarkable. the one on one is remarkable and the care and safety is there. you have to look at the root cause and

what's going on is it has not been funded now we've become a litigious country where people are forever, ever , ever trying are forever, ever, ever trying to sue this. and sue that. as the american model back in 1945, the american model back in 1945, the nhs was made for everybody, not just people who were affluent. now we're in a situation you can't get your teeth done, can't get your eyes done. nobody trusts this, nobody trusts that. and the root cause is a government that has not invested i that's the argument that they make, because when the medical profession do mess up, they often blame it on systemic failures. >> so that can range from anything like we didn't have enough equipment here. can enough equipment here. it can range was so overworked and range to i was so overworked and tired mistake was bound tired that a mistake was bound to and we missed to happen and we missed this, etc. so is litigation on etc. so there is litigation on both sides here, right? but paula , i can't help but feel as paula, i can't help but feel as though at times there is a whopping great big culture of cover up in the nhs and they try and silence that which shed loads myself . i had a very bad

>> even myself. i had a very bad sore throat once i went to my gp, said i've had strep throat gp, i said i've had strep throat before, i really need antibiotics. no no, don't antibiotics. no no no, you don't need antibiotics . you know, need antibiotics. you know, because your antibodies . two because your antibodies. two days later at home, i collapsed with strep throat and i had to be the for three days. be in the a&e for three days. doctors listen to their doctors need to listen to their patients a lot of them think patients and a lot of them think that and they that they are just god, and they don't be told they could don't like to be told they could be they to be wrong. they they seem to think all. and think they know it all. and i think they know it all. and i think people did sue think if more people did sue them, maybe they would try to do everything feel everything right more. i feel like they think that they can just away with a lot, just get away with a lot, because away because they are getting away with people, with a lot, a lot of people, when their family when they lose their family members, sue when members, they can sue when there's but there's been negligence, but they because they decide not to because people hate because people will hate them, because the great, blah blah the nhs is so great, blah blah blah. make mistakes and blah. they make mistakes and they need to, you know, the nhs need to pay for it. >> look, whenever i talk >> look, jenny, whenever i talk about topics like this, i always, know, chat about always, you know, chat about it with the office. with people in the office. i talk about just people talk about it with just people generally, and i do put it to you almost every you that almost every single family country has got at family in the country has got at least one nhs horror story. >> yeah, yeah . >> yeah, yeah. >> yeah, yeah. >> and i think it pains me to

say that the nhs is not being looked after . junior doctors, looked after. junior doctors, nurses and consultants . they nurses and consultants. they take the hippocratic oath, they take the hippocratic oath, they take the hippocratic oath, they take the oath where they want to make people better. they do not strike it as an easy thing to do . and we're looking at an institution that has been brought to the ground because the tory government have wanted people to go private , and it was people to go private, and it was happening years and years ago. the more you can dem what's going on, the more people get frightened and then the more the nhs is on its knees and i think it needs investment and it needs love and humanity and compassion. all right. >> i mean yeah okay. i mean there is we're out of time. there is a heck of a lot of investment into the nhs. never had much money. had so much money. >> yeah . >> yeah. >> em- e bean counters , it's >> and the bean counters, it's not going to the right place and you know, it's going to management. >> it is. i get that , i do get >> it is. i get that, i do get that. but again that is actually not just down to the government.

that's to people who that's down to the people who work the you always work in the nhs. you always thought that, look, obviously thought that, look, we obviously could this all could bang on about this all night. again, night. we'll pick it up again, no point soon. no doubt at some point soon. both you very, both of you. thank you very, very much. is, of course, very much. that is, of course, social actress social commentator and actress jenny broadcast at jenny barnett. and broadcast at paula london, of you. that paula london, both of you. that was who do you was great. look, who do you agree with? okay, so go on twitter. this cc i'd be twitter. who's this cc i'd be more likely to trust a pharmacist over a gp for meds if ineeded pharmacist over a gp for meds if i needed them. pharmacists know their stuff. the gp system is broken. chris says at my chemist they are already really busy with lots of people waiting for their prescription . i don't know their prescription. i don't know how the pharmacist will find time people about time to chat to people about their quite. their ailments. well, quite. mary says no people with serious conditions are slipping through the misdiagnosed or the net being misdiagnosed or not treatment. it not getting timely treatment. it needs disbanding. it's not fit for money the for purpose. money isn't the issue. look, issue. mismanagement is look, your now okay? so your verdict is now in. okay? so 24% of you think the nhs is safe for patients . wow. i was not for patients. wow. i was not expecting that. 24% of you think that the nhs is safe. so 76% of

you think it's not safe for patients. there we go. coming up , mumford and sons. musicians turned freedom fighter winston marshall reveals the major ideological threat to the west and our way of life. and that threat is here. but next has nicolas sturgeon been looking at the latest scottish independence polls idea that in those horrendous days, weeks , i was horrendous days, weeks, i was thinking of a political opportunity? >> i find , well, it was just it >> i find, well, it was just it wasn't true . wasn't true. >> deleted whatsapp's burner phones. >> deleted whatsapp's burner phones . were we watching the phones. were we watching the covid inquiry or an american gangster movie there? look former deputy tory, uh, chairman, that's the one. lee anderson gives his views on the snp. it's not to be missed. he tees off very shortly. patrick christys tonight.

massive threat to western civilisation, a threat that is already here. it's patrick christys tonight. we are only

gb news. is patrick christys tonight only on gb news, coming up very shortly. a gb news exclusive about zara , alina's killer about zara, alina's killer jordan mcsweeney and his whopping legal aid bill. but first political commentator and author douglas murray has shared this leaflet found in a gaza home. now it reads this religion will reach everywhere the night and day can reach allah will not leave a dwelling in a city until he has made this religion enter it. it comes amid concerns about britain's rapidly shifting demographics, the potential imposition of radical islamic values on our society . after a values on our society. after a badly teacher was forced into hiding for showing a cartoon of the prophet muhammad and a young lad in wakefield received death

threats damaging the quran, threats for damaging the quran, i'm now by musician and i'm joined now by musician and podcast writer deep thinker winston marshall. winston, look, thank you very, very much . thank you very, very much. you've just got back from israel. yeah, i was actually with douglas in israel. >> i've been there for the last couple of weeks all over the country from the gaza envelope to the west bank. and i, before talking britain. talking about britain. >> picking this >> it's worth picking up on this detail this leaflet that detail about this leaflet that douglas about . douglas tweeted about. >> it's an tower with a >> it's an eiffel tower with a minaret from a mosque sticking out the top. hamas as an ideology. >> there is . it's not only a >> there is. it's not only a nationalist movement , it >> there is. it's not only a nationalist movement, it is also an islamist movement . so it's, an islamist movement. so it's, you know, it's linked to the muslim brotherhood. i it's not at all surprising to see this. it's pretty obvious. it's pretty known what they believe. i think there are many types of muslims and there are many types of islam . islam. >> obviously. >> obviously. >> i think geopolitically there's two types that are quite or at least two types that are worth thinking about and

separating. on the one hand, you have the classic hamas, hezbollah , uh, ayatollah in iran hezbollah, uh, ayatollah in iran , that sort of , hezbollah, uh, ayatollah in iran , that sort of, uh, colonialist islam, the type like mohammed, the founder, who was a warmonger, who spread it by the religion, by the sword . on the religion, by the sword. on the other hand, you have another type of islam. and this is really evidenced by the abraham accords that put through by that trump led with jared kushner and thatis trump led with jared kushner and that is evidence that there is a type of islam and muslims today who want peace with israel, who want peace with the west. they don't want war. and that actually is a point for hope thatis actually is a point for hope that is really worth clinging onto. unfortunately the airtime in british media has been given to the former type. the type who don't care about britain , who don't care about britain, who are basically they're not islamists , but they're not far islamists, but they're not far from that. and so we're not getting the voices from the

more, uh , peace seeking muslims . more, uh, peace seeking muslims. there are many peace, honourable , good muslims in britain, i know, and we'll talk about britain. it's something you've you've suggested, but yeah , it's you've suggested, but yeah, it's been a problem. i remember at the time of the manchester arena, you want to talk about the problem of islamism in britain. got to talk britain. you've got to talk about the obvious big attacks. >> manchester arena last night actually, because because two because two of salman abdi's , because two of salman abdi's, uh, friends basically are set for a set for release again. >> and so, so yeah, we did we did speak about that last night. go on. yeah. >> well, look, you've got >> well, so look, you've got manchester got lee manchester arena, you've got lee rigby of last year, rigby at the end of last year, uh, seeker killed a, uh, uh, asylum seeker killed a, uh, a heartless . paul. a pensioner in heartless. paul. uh, sir david amess uh, this sir david amess killing, uh, in covid there was the redding attack . london the redding attack. london bridge attacks. we've got a77. we've got serious problems that didn't go at the height of, uh, manchester arena. i think they said the numbers. there was 22,500 jihadis in britain. it's an issue that's here. we keep.

we avoid talking about it. we avoid dealing. dealing with it. and uh, i don't really know. i'm not sure. i know what the solution is about it, but starting to talk about it seriously might be the beginning. >> do you think it's absolutely vital to talk about it? seriously, that seriously, it is something that we a lot. i know we try to do here a lot. i know that is becoming that it is becoming more commonplace because i think people though it can't people feel as though it can't be ignored and is be ignored anymore. and that is vital having vital because without having a conversation discussion vital because without having a conve|it|tion discussion vital because without having a convent ,ion discussion vital because without having a convent , then discussion vital because without having a convent , then weiiscussion vital because without having a convent , then we can'tsion vital because without having a convent , then we can't improve about it, then we can't improve it. it is also that it. and it is also vital that people yourself come on and people like yourself come on and say there are much say that there are very much different this. not different aspects to this. not everybody is a complete, raging extreme list. yes, they're given a lot of our time. yes, we see a lot of it out on the streets on saturdays. now especially in london moment. london at the moment. unfortunately and yes, we see a lot out in the lot of it playing out in the middle east. but but think middle east. but but you think there because lot middle east. but but you think th

the electorate, etc, that maybe we allowed some kind of we have allowed some kind of trojan horse in here, but it doesn't have be way, doesn't have to be that way, doesn't have to be that way, does bigger concern actually , >> my bigger concern actually, is the, the, i guess the kyrees the confidence that britain's having in being british. another example of this we've just seen is catherine. catherine birbalsingh in her school. hall, where she's been taken to the high court because she has all her students eating together, eating so they eating vegetarian so they can all together . they all sing all eat together. they all sing the anthem at the the national anthem at the beginning day, she's beginning of the day, and she's been the high been taking the high court because were because some girls were forbidden praying. they forbidden from praying. they were told weren't allowed were told they weren't allowed to the whole to pray because the whole point is birbalsingh has is assimilation. birbalsingh has the confidence to say, we need to talk about assimilation. look, i'm for immigration. i've done of on hong kong done a lot of work on hong kong and immigration, specifically . and immigration, specifically. it's all, but you it's all good and all, but you have to talk about assimilation. you talk about what it you have to talk about what it is we have in common. we keep banging on about diversity is our greatest strength. no unity is our greatest strength . is our greatest strength. diversity good thing, but diversity is a good thing, but not unity. not without unity. >> i'm going actually >> i'm just going to actually

bnng >> i'm just going to actually bring you. i'm you're here bring you. i'm glad you're here for breaking news. for this. some breaking news. this is literally just coming through right now. veteran through to us right now. veteran minister mike freer is to quit frontline politics after being subjected to a campaign of death threats and intimidation of his pro—israel views. the justice minister told rishi sunak today that he will step down at the election following a string of threats and incidents which culminated in an arson attack on his constituency office in in december. that is the breaking news now that tory minister has now resigned over threats, they have faced here in britain over their views on the middle east. yeah, we obviously weren't planning this, winston, but i mean that i think does just highlight the strength of feeling out there at moment feeling out there at the moment and our politicians and the threats our politicians face. that was in >> i believe that was in finchley in north london. and it's ridiculous that in this country we, we that are someone in his position should have to quit . we need to protect these quit. we need to protect these politicians . we. where's the politicians. we. where's the police in this ? we're we're police in this? we're we're kowtowing to people who have no

government. and that's the news. i'm back in an hour's time. welcome back to patrick christys tonight. >> now we've got a gb news exclusive for you. you the taxpayer has paid nearly £56,000 for a vile sexual predator and murderer with a criminal record . murderer with a criminal record. as long as your arm to get legal aid so that he can reduce his sentence. i'm talking about one of the worst offenders in modern british history. it is depraved jordan who stalked, jordan mcsweeney, who stalked, sexually assaulted and then battered law graduate zara aleena to death. he sexually assaulted . her for assaulted zara and left. her for deadin assaulted zara and left. her for dead in an attack that lasted nine minutes and left her with 46 separate injuries . nine minutes and left her with 46 separate injuries. he was released on licence from prison nine days before he committed the murder . nine days before he committed the murder. he was mistakenly not classed as . the murder. he was mistakenly not classed as. high risk. he

hadnt not classed as. high risk. he hadn't had his licence revoked because he didn't attend the appropriate meetings, but he was still to zara . still free to kill zara. chilling cctv footage showed mcsweeney stalking other women before focusing on zara . he had before focusing on zara. he had 28 previous convictions for 69 separate offences dating back 70 years, and had a history of violence towards ex—partners . he violence towards ex—partners. he even refused to come out of his cell and face real justice at his sentencing. this guy is the worst of the worst and still you , the taxpayer, have been made to fork out £56,000 so that he could appeal his sentence and get it reduced by five years. you have paid for this man to potentially walk free five years earlier. now it is one thing paying earlier. now it is one thing paying legal aid for someone to face their initial trial is another thing entirely for us to pay another thing entirely for us to pay legal aid for someone who is undeniably guilty to appeal the length of their sentence . is length of their sentence. is this something that has to change now in britain ? and it's

change now in britain? and it's happening all the time? thomas cashman was given a mandatory life sentence after being found guilty of murdering olivia pratt—korbel in her own home last august. he's reportedly received around a quarter of £1 million in legal aid after fighting that conviction. members of the rochdale grooming gang, guilty the most heinous gang, guilty of the most heinous crimes , then used aid to crimes, then used legal aid to appeal their deportation . that appeal their deportation. that bill has come in somewhere in the region of £2 million, again , the region of £2 million, again, it is one thing paying for the initial defence of someone who is not yet proven to be guilty, but once they are, why are we paying but once they are, why are we paying for these monsters ? paying for these monsters? subsequent legal challenges now , subsequent legal challenges now, earlier i caught up with the aunt of zara, lina, who i'm very grateful, agreed to talk to us. she's farinaz now . farah and all she's farinaz now. farah and all of zara's family have behaved with the utmost dignity throughout this absolutely shocking ordeal. here's what she had to say. >> i wasn't at formerly made

aware that he'd continued to use legal aid for the appeal, but that i assume that that was the case. >> um, i believe that, uh, all criminals, uh , even though, um , criminals, uh, even though, um, you know, obviously i don't want him to have any rights, but i do believe and my family stances is that all criminals of a certain financial status should have the right, just as any other convicted criminal should have the right for appeal. there's got to be fairness. and, um , got to be fairness. and, um, even though, you know, he deserves nothing, there's got to be fairness as far as problems, she told me, is more with the fact that appeal judges actually gave him a more lenient sentence i >> -- >> and that's obviously her very, very dignified response there. but the fact is that mcsweeney would not have got that reduction in all likelihood would if we hadn't paid for his appeal. we have a lot of stories

like this coming. your way right here on patrick christys tonight. this is the tip of the iceberg . is it time that iceberg. is it time that taxpayers stop paying the bill for horrendous criminals to have the chance at softer justice? let's get the thoughts now of my panel.i let's get the thoughts now of my panel . i am joined let's get the thoughts now of my panel. i am joined this let's get the thoughts now of my panel . i am joined this evening panel. i am joined this evening by editor at large at the mail on sunday, charlotte griffiths. i'm also joined by activist freedom fighter as well. the wonderful adam brookes, an author and journalist. rebecca reid. look, thank you very, very much , everybody. um, look, adam, much, everybody. um, look, adam, i'll start with you . why do you i'll start with you. why do you think that we should be paying legal aid for people are legal aid for people who are appealing no, appealing a sentence? no, i don't , and i think this horrific don't, and i think this horrific story highlights the absurdity of that. >> we, the taxpayer , are paying >> we, the taxpayer, are paying for someone that followed a woman home dragged her onto a driveway and effectively killed her and raped her. this guy is a monster. he should be for me. life should mean life. he should be behind bars for the rest of his life. i think it's an insult that he's had his , uh, sentence

that he's had his, uh, sentence reduced by five years, and it's even more of an insult that you and me and us have paid helped pay and me and us have paid helped pay for that. now, you know, it's people like keir starmer, these sort of lawyers that stick up for men like this. i don't know how they sleep at night. and now potentially we've got a man like that going to be our prime minister this year or next yean prime minister this year or next year, whenever the election is. it's frightening . it's frightening. >> okay. i mean, keir starmer, to be fair, didn't have anything to be fair, didn't have anything to this case, to do with this specific case, not but last, not this case, but the last, last thing i'd like to say the uk system seems to treat uk justice system seems to treat criminals than the victims. >> and this has stop. rebecca >> and this has to stop. rebecca >> and this has to stop. rebecca >> well, you can't have a system where for the right to appeal exists, but only if you can afford it. because that creates afford it. because that creates a situation where if have a situation where if you have money, you can appeal an appeal and appeal long i'll and appeal for as long as i'll accept if you accept your right to. and if you don't, you won't. and whether you're guilty on you're guilty or not on what sentence should be sentence you get should not be based income is. based on what your income is. so either the right to either we have the right to appeal either we have the right to appeal, means you appeal, which means that you have to do so with have to be able to do so with legal we don't have

legal aid or we don't have the right or set the right to appeal, or we set the bar higher. you have to wait longer and new evidence to bar higher. you have to wait lorprovided. iew evidence to bar higher. you have to wait lorprovided. iew e'makes�* to bar higher. you have to wait lorprovided. iew e'makes sense. bar higher. you have to wait lorrwhated. iew e'makes sense. bar higher. you have to wait lorrwhated.1ecan't1akes sense. bar higher. you have to wait lorrwhated.1ecan't1akes sayse. but what you can't do is say this is a particularly evil man, so can't have the same right so he can't have the same right to a trial that everybody to a fair trial that everybody else instinctively to a fair trial that everybody else it, instinctively to a fair trial that everybody else it, it instinctively to a fair trial that everybody else it, it doesn't vely to a fair trial that everybody else it, it doesn't make like it, but it doesn't make sense. you do sense. but so what would you do that allow him? you that you would allow him? you would you have would say that you can't have legal aid. >> wriggle room here. >> there's no wriggle room here. he did what he did. >> then legal aid is >> but then legal aid is irrelevant to this question. then you're saying that you don't that he should have don't think that he should have been able to appeal? >> don't he should be >> i don't think he should be able because the case able to appeal because the case is so clear. there's you is so clear. there's not, you know, in know, if you put 100 judges in a room, of them is going room, not one of them is going to then what to say, oh, you know, then what you're that. you're saying, do that. >> but then what you're arguing for rigorous approach for is a more rigorous approach to to less to who can appeal, not to a less legal appeal. legal aid appeal. >> possibly the points >> possibly the good points made here far, the fact is it here so far, the fact is it sticks in the craw bit, sticks in the craw a bit, doesn't it? >> leaves a really >> it does. it leaves a really bitter because it's bitter taste because it's £56,000. got him five years. it feels so transactional , doesn't feels so transactional, doesn't it? and devil's advocate it? and playing devil's advocate say he started a crowdfunding appeal. would would his friends and family would the wider

pubuc and family would the wider public be raising £56,000 to help him appeal? given that he'd pleaded guilty? i don't think they were. >> some lefties were. but if he had, if he purrs, i don't think any lefty this this you don't get no that's this get some sorry. no that's this is this is this is a this is a woman who murdered by a man. woman who was murdered by a man. this stuff that this is the absolute stuff that feminists like me are most horrified was a clear horrified by. this was a clear cut case where lefties were disgusted. let's not disgusted. so please, let's not besmirch that. that's fair. besmirch that. that's not fair. but, if he had £56,000 but, but, but if he had £56,000 privately, he should be no more or entitled having an or less entitled to having an appeal. those two things should not . not be relevant. >> i mean, i think. go on, charlie. well i think i think what actually said what you actually said earlier is probably right, that there should be a more rigorous process guilty , process if he's pleaded guilty, why is he even trying process if he's pleaded guilty, wiget is he even trying process if he's pleaded guilty, wiget private is he even trying process if he's pleaded guilty, wiget private ?s he even trying to get private? >> well, it's sort of technicalities, isn't it's technicalities, isn't it? it's shaving bits by saying, shaving bits off by saying, well, actually specific well, actually on this specific charge, you can twist it this way. to what you way. it's similar to what you see. criminals see. other criminals like, for instance, attempting. instance, lucy letby attempting. it's not sensible, not it's not sensible, it's not right. can't act right. but we can't act emotionally law has to emotionally here. the law has to be objective and calm . that be objective and calm. that can't get upset about how discussing these cases . discussing these cases. >> well, i think if you if again if people in

if you go and ask 100 people in a road whether this man a high road whether this man should ever be released , 99.9% should ever be released, 99.9% would say no, he should spend the rest of his life in jail. we need to look at our justice system , but also the main point system, but also the main point here that horrifies who made here that horrifies me. who made the decision that he wasn't a threat. now whoever did that should be sacked. if should be sacked. and if anything , prosecuted because anything, prosecuted because they've a life. they've cost a life. >> we've got we've got this guy who's got criminal record as long as your arm. i rattled it off monologue on off in my monologue earlier on there, something along the there, but something along the lines previous convictions there, but something along the liprevious previous convictions there, but something along the liprevious historic js convictions , previous historic violence against . he was out on against partners. he was out on licence, contravened the terms of that licence, was wanted back then, went on and stalked other women and then finally, unfortunately, of course set on zara and the rest is absolutely disgusting and devastating history. so the taxpayer has essentially paid for this guy's bed and board. we were probably going to be due pay for him going to be due to pay for him for rest of his life anyway, for the rest of his life anyway, because, who's to because, i mean, who's going to employ this absolute monster? then we pay his initial then we pay for his initial defence and this this

defence and then this is this is the key point, which i understand people do have a understand that people do have a right appeal. when right to an appeal. but when you also when you also branch this out, when you look at the likes of thomas cashman, another cashman, you know, another vile murderer who's i murderer there who's got, i believe, life tariff believe, a whole life tariff who was against so was appealing against that. so we're then for appeal we're then paying for his appeal that around quarter that racks up to around quarter of million. then look of £1 million. then you look at the rochdale the example of the rochdale grooming that is grooming gang and that is absolutely . they've been absolutely bonkers. they've been found served found guilty. they've served their now we're paying their time and now we're paying so they can appeal their deportation action for goodness sake. it just feels like the sake. and it just feels like the taxpayers on the hook for all of it. really? >> yeah. there is there's definitely feeling. definitely that feeling. and i think what you're saying, what you bit you said in your initial bit about there about the appeals, maybe there is to be is something that needs to be done area because done around that area because everyone the to everyone does have the right to a trial, can't just a fair trial, and you can't just have just rich people, you know, having i get that, have just rich people, you know, havithere i get that, have just rich people, you know, havithere is i get that, have just rich people, you know, havithere is somethingt that, have just rich people, you know, havithere is something about the but there is something about the appeals that seems so frustrating, appeals that seems so frustaxpayer. and it's just the taxpayer. and it's just going to create a sort of nation of annoyed people. >> surely, surely a better question is, at the moment, our prison is not achieving prison system is not achieving anything. it detaining people prison system is not achieving anythinnecessarilyiining people prison system is not achieving anythinnecessarily asng people prison system is not achieving anythin necessarily as long ople prison system is not achieving anythinnecessarily as long as.e for not necessarily as long as they be detained they deserve to be detained and then unchanged

then releasing them unchanged and whenever about and whenever you talk about prison get upset prison reform, people get upset because being too because it talks about being too nice . if you can nice but realistic. if you can look things like the scandi look at things like the scandi model, lowest model, which has the lowest re—offense rate in any of any of kind of in europe, generally speaking , you might actually be speaking, you might actually be able improve when able to improve people when they come doesn't uh , with >> that doesn't really, uh, with someone this, this, this someone like this, this, this person is going change. person is never going to change. i mean, would personally like i mean, i would personally like anyone murders another anyone that murders another person. think they person. i don't think they should i think should leave prison. i think they the rest of they should spend the rest of their life in jail. okay. but with that. >> well, no, if i'm if i was being for 20 years by my being abused for 20 years by my husband and i stabbed him, i should be in prison for the rest of always of my life. there are always extenuating you extenuating circumstances. you cannot okay, we're to >> look, okay, we're going to knock the head. knock that one on the head. there. now lots more the there. now lots more from the panel bit panel a little bit later on. bit of a gear change because of a gear change this because it's something it's time for something positive. time for positive. okay? it's time for the you the great british giveaway. you could win £18,000 tax free could win £18,000 in tax free cash however you like could win £18,000 in tax free casthe however you like could win £18,000 in tax free casthe chance however you like could win £18,000 in tax free casthe chance however yo yours. for the chance to make it yours. here's how we wanted ten, 2024 into 2020. >> more with your chance to win £18,000 in cash to spend.

>> the camilla tominey show sunday mornings from 930 on gb news . is patrick christys news. is patrick christys. >> tonight we're only on gb news my press pack returns with the first of tonight's front pages, which will include , i imagine, which will include, i imagine, a serving government minister resigning because of the threats that they feel over the israel palestine situation. we cannot not we cannot have a serving politician resigning, feeling as though they can't do their job because of violent threats and thuggery on the streets of britain. but first, we cover the latest twists in the absolutely massive martin bashir scandal in our dispatch . so the our royal dispatch. so the latest documents released by the bbc have shown that bashir

himself claimed to be a victim of racism inside the bbc. when confronted allegations over confronted with allegations over his infamous 1995 panorama interview with princess diana. writing to a bbc historian back in 2020, bashir said that professional jealousy caused by a second generation immigrant of non white working class roots, the temerity to enter a royal palace may have fuelled the investigation into him, adding that it would have been so much easier if one of the dynastic dimbleby brothers had secured the scoop instead . convenient, the scoop instead. convenient, perhaps, that bashir decided to play perhaps, that bashir decided to play this race card in july 2020, just two months after george floyd's death whipped up the western world into a race fuelled hysteria . earlier today, fuelled hysteria. earlier today, ispoke fuelled hysteria. earlier today, i spoke to mark killick. now mark lost his job as a panorama producer with the bbc for raising his own concerns about this exact issue. he tried to blow the lid off the bashir scandal all those years ago .

scandal all those years ago. mark. martin bashir clearly decided that this wasn't a particular scandal that warranted investigation, and that he felt as though his race and professional jealousy was playing a part in blowing this thing up to being a much bigger thing up to being a much bigger thing than it actually was. what do you of that ? do you make of that? >> well, my understanding is that was from an email from 2020 before lord dyson's report. >> i think lord dyson's report blows that defence out of the water. >> he makes it very clear that martin bashir was a dishonest reporter. >> and the things that martin did were pretty reprehensible. um but what i think is as interesting is the new the new emails that are coming out are going to throw a new light on the new management and that that will genuinely be interesting to see. >> can you expand a bit on that for me, please? so we are in a situation where things are being redacted, where there is obviously a massive pushback at the bbc and a huge reluctance at the bbc and a huge reluctance at the bbc and a huge reluctance at

the bbc to have all of this information out there. why do you think they are so concerned ? you think they are so concerned? >> because the bbc, i think , >> because the bbc, i think, from the start, has tried to control the narrative of this story. i think they're very happy that the focus of the dyson report was on martin bashir. there are a lot less happy when it's on the senior management of the bbc. uh, what these emails are all about are what the senior management of the bbc did , what they thought the bbc did, what they thought and i think will come and what i think will come through. and obviously we haven't seen them in full yet, but what i think will come through is the bbc trying to control narrative and control the narrative and potentially trying manipulate potentially trying to manipulate , uh, what comes out and what doesn't come out. >> and you think that there is a possibility that that could lead back to very senior levels at the bbc right now ? the bbc right now? >> well, i think there's no there's no question that that it, that it could i mean, one of the things that , uh, generated the things that, uh, generated this freedom of information act request was the suggestion that

a report wrongly implicating lord spencer had been put in the pubuc lord spencer had been put in the public domain. uh why was that? why was that one report? not all the others put out there in advance? that's a question. it could have been coincidence , or could have been coincidence, or it could be conspiracy. we'll understand more when we look at these 3000 emails. i think the issue we've got that 3000 emails, whilst it's a lot over a two month period, probably doesn't reveal the full picture . doesn't reveal the full picture. and i suspect the bbc have opened pandora's box now and eventually all the documentation surrounding the bbc thinking both originally and now, will come out. >> do you think they should just bite the bullet and do that? because there's going to be immense here for them immense pressure here for them to i don't think the to do it. i don't think the pubuc to do it. i don't think the public going to accept this public are going to accept this slow drip, drip, drip of redacted information. should they fess they just bite the bullet, fess up , be upfront with us now and up, be upfront with us now and do it and just face the consequences? >> i think that's that's

absolutely right. the trouble with this drip, drip, drip because you're not getting a you're not getting the full disclosure that bbc claimed the bbc claim they want the full picture here. >> bbcis picture here. >> bbc is an iconic >> the bbc is an iconic institution. okay how damaging to its reputation could this be? >> well, i think you've got to accept that the bbc in, uh, in instructing dyson to do the report , uh, you know, did did report, uh, you know, did did did itself a lot of good. uh, but there is other things to come out . i mean, we do know come out. i mean, we do know this attempt to try and control the narrative , uh, the bringing the narrative, uh, the bringing out , uh, the, the narrative, uh, the bringing out, uh, the, uh , email out, uh, the, uh, email referencing lord spencer and wrongly suggesting he might have been implicated in some of this stuff . there's also the more stuff. there's also the more recent things that have come out which suggest it's a much closer relationship bashir relationship between mr bashir and the bbc. more recently than the bbc have said. the bbc have said he was too ill to talk, but they're clearly corresponding with almost daily. this with him almost daily. all this stuff, both, you know, it's both

small and larger and i suspect it won't do the bbc an awful lot of good that it comes out. but it probably is right that it comes out. >> yeah, i mean, that implication there at the end i think is actually quite important, isn't it. which is that they actually still that are they actually still kind together try kind of working together to try to limitation on both to do damage limitation on both parts for their own mutual benefit and just, to just clarify then, uh , how important clarify then, uh, how important was is the initial scandal that happened here? i mean, it had big consequences for the royal family. it had big consequences for britain. some people have gone on and said, you know, it's potentially in some way contributed towards both diana's death and the relationship death and also the relationship that went on to that both princes went on to have with the british media probably out more probably played out more egregiously harry egregiously with prince harry than let's be honest. than william. let's be honest. would , would you you would you, would you would you go far as to say that there go as far as to say that there was an initial level of deceit and deception there that has had those kind of far reaching consequences for this country ? consequences for this country? >> i think it has. i think, you

know, diana was a vulnerable person despite her fame and her celebrity and i think she was destabilised by by the lies she was told, by the destruction it did to her court. was told, by the destruction it did to her court . and i think did to her court. and i think the princes and the reason why they spoke out together , uh, and they spoke out together, uh, and felt so strongly about it because they recognise the damage that was done . uh, so, i damage that was done. uh, so, i mean, you know, it was a huge scoop and it was a terrible scandal, a terrible scandal that could go right to the very top. >> but let's go to the thoughts of my panel now, editor at large at the mail on sunday. charlotte griffiths, businessman and activist brooks. author activist adam brooks. and author and journalist rebecca relook, charlotte, on charlotte, i'll go to you on this. you know, not afraid of a royal scoop yourself? of course. what you of this bashir what do you make of this bashir thing do thing now? i mean, how hard do you this go? what's you think this could go? what's your you think this could go? what's youwell, i think think playing >> well, i think i think playing the going to cause the race card is going to cause some of problems. but he's some a lot of problems. but he's weathered many a problem over the few years. think he's the last few years. i think he's right know , they right to say, you know, they if

only only jonathan or david only if only jonathan or david dimbleby had done this interview. the reason is, is because the dimbleby brothers are proper journalists that don't con their way into interviews. think he's kind interviews. so i think he's kind of right, but i don't think it's to do with race. i think it's to do with, um, you know, his skill set as a journalist, which frankly , is very much up for frankly, is very much up for debate . debate. >> the timing of it is quite interesting. mean, interesting. i mean, it potentially insinuation, potentially be some insinuation, maybe he is jumping on the old george floyd bandwagon that george floyd bandwagon at that particular . uh, particular moment in time. uh, this is pretty scandalous , this is pretty scandalous, though, really. and again, you know, the bbc, i think, should really everything really fess up to everything here now, they're supposedly going drip of going to be a very slow drip of emails. just get it all out there. pandora's box, as you were hearing there from the bloke blow lid bloke who tried to blow the lid off this thing ago, is now off this thing years ago, is now open. >> look, do i think if martin bashir white man, he still >> look, do i think if martin bashir have white man, he still >> look, do i think if martin bashir have got1ite man, he still >> look, do i think if martin bashir have got1ite m lot he still >> look, do i think if martin bashir have got1ite m lot of still >> look, do i think if martin bashir have got1ite m lot of heat would have got out a lot of heat and pushback? and a lot of pushback? yes, i do, don't see any race sort of do, i don't see any race sort of involved in this. and i think he is playing the race card and it's a bad look. >> i agree snobbery card as well, saying because he's not posh, but i just don't think

that applies either. to be honest . oh, i that applies either. to be honest. oh, i think it that applies either. to be honest . oh, i think it does. honest. oh, i think it does. >> think was >> i think i think anyone was going get with these going to get with these revelations coming anyone revelations coming out. anyone was shocked. revelations coming out. anyone was smean,i. revelations coming out. anyone was mean, she was absolutely >> i mean, she was absolutely have basically totally and i think with that. think we all agree with that. >> but two things. number one, this been this woman has been dead for a very, long time. not very, very long time. i'm not really sure who helping to really sure who it's helping to start. back start. draghi this all back up and over over it again. >> rebecca, this interview, some people do on aspects that people do blame on aspects that led up to her death. >> that's ridiculous. not wearing a seatbelt was largely what her death. this what led to her death. this is so a of time so silly. it's a waste of time and money. everybody knows it's badly handled, he still badly handled, he is not still doing the same thing again and again. different again. the bbc is a different organisation. who organisation. most people who work there don't work there anymore, is in a anymore, but the bbc is in a different organisation. >> redacted documents. >> the people it's >> but most of the people it's no nobody. in 1995, but nobody who this is who was involved in this is still these decisions still making these decisions or still making these decisions or still there. now still working there. now there's a of people. this a huge turnover of people. this is what, 20 something years is like what, 20 something years ago? , um, his ago? i think, um, his skin colour has played a part in this. >> yes or no. »- >> yes or no. >> his full long quote, he says that he thinks that professional jealousy and we all know journalists are awful . and as

journalists are awful. and as in, he thinks that he was a victim of professional jealousy, which definitely because which is definitely true because journalists are dreadful and classism, which definitely classism, which is definitely real, and racism and a lot of other things. but i think there's probably all do, but those those but two things. those but those but two things. >> he lied his way into two things can true at the same time. >> you can both held to a >> you can both be held to a slightly standard because slightly higher standard because you're class man, and you're working class man, and also done something also have done something wrong. >> that isn't >> it's a real shame that isn't it, those who might >> it's a real shame that isn't it, prejudiced who might >> it's a real shame that isn't it, prejudiced againstio might >> it's a real shame that isn't it, prejudiced against him ght have prejudiced against him actually know, have prejudiced against him ac' also 1 know, have prejudiced against him ac'also have know, have prejudiced against him ac'also have this know, have prejudiced against him ac'also have this cast know, have prejudiced against him ac'also have this cast ironnow, to also have this cast iron guarantee that this guy essentially lied, his way essentially lied, lied his way into mean, you you want to into it? i mean, you you want to push back on anything push back on on anything that rebecca i do also push back on rebecca i do i also push back on this thing that it's not current or relevant. >> now, honestly think prince >> now, i honestly think prince william would say it's totally relevant life has relevant now. his whole life has been very been changed to this very moment. is and should moment. i don't is and we should let argument with prince harry because his whole life was changed terrible ordeal changed by this terrible ordeal that his parents. yes. >> people have lies and >> but people have lies and distrust amongst that, that marriage was already that marriage was already that marriage was already completely torn apart , was affected by this
