inept , effective and possibly inept, effective and possibly worst politicians his worst politicians of his generation. presumably generation. it is presumably just weeks before he's doing a podcast with rory stewart and gary room the £28 gary lineker. spare room the £28 billion green plan was labour's flagship policy. miliband put it forward and shadow chancellor rachel reeves announced it at labour party conference in 2021. miliband actually said this as recently as june last year. some people don't want britain to borrow to invest in the green economy. they want us to back down. but keir, rachel and i will never let that happen . will never let that happen. britain needs this £28 billion a year plan and that is what we are committed to . fast forward are committed to. fast forward to today and we have yet another screeching u—turn. let's add that to the list, shall we? keir starmer sacks rayner , promotes starmer sacks rayner, promotes raynen he starmer sacks rayner, promotes rayner. he biffed her over dodgy local election results and then, after a bit of pressure, decided to give her the ludicrous titles of and i think i'm writing saying this shadow first secretary of state, shadow chancellor of the of chancellor of the duchy of lancaster shadow secretary lancaster and shadow secretary of for of work

of state for future of work nationalisation when he ran for the labour leadership, sir keir said he'd bring rail mail, energy and water into common ownership in 2022. that plan was dropped. obviously we've got brexit. >> i'm really pleased that whatever outcome the next prime minister puts before us, whether that's a deal of some sort or no deal , we've agreed that it must deal, we've agreed that it must be subject to another referendum and in that referendum remain must be an option and labour will be campaigning for remain universal credit. >> he was going to abolish it. now he's going to reform it. scrap university tuition fees. he said he'd do it when he ran for labour leader. he did the old reverse ferry on that one two child care as well . two child care as well. universal child care from the end of paternal leave to the end of primary school. end of paternal leave to the end of primary school . then less of primary school. then less than six months later that was no longer labour party policy. tax. the rich . in 2020, he said tax. the rich. in 2020, he said it increased income tax for the top 5% of earners. then he said he wasn't looking to pull the old tax levers anymore, abolish

the house of lords. can you guess what happened here? anybody? yeah that's on the back burner too, isn't it? you lazy backed it when sadiq khan wanted to roll it out. then he rowed back when it looked he'd back when it looked like he'd lose the uxbridge by—election, which did. bankers bonuses which he did. bankers bonuses slam the government for removing the cap on bankers bonuses. three months later, labour confirms would not reverse confirms they would not reverse the policy if keir starmer told you it was raining, you'd have to check for to go outside and check for yourself, you? now yourself, wouldn't you? now the man, the woman, i should say. well, although, to be fair again , controversial well, although, to be fair again , week, controversial well, although, to be fair again , week, it?1troversial well, although, to be fair again , week, it? the ersial well, although, to be fair again , week, it? the woman this week, isn't it? the woman he be, home secretary he wants to be, home secretary is with sign saying is posed with a sign saying refugees welcome. the bloke he wants be. health secretary refugees welcome. the bloke he wants to be. health secretary refugees welcome. the bloke he wants to essentially secretary refugees welcome. the bloke he wants to essentially privatise the nhs and could lose his seat to an independent pro—palestine candidate at the next election to an independent pro—palestine candialready the next election to an independent pro—palestine candialready losingxt election to an independent pro—palestine candialready losing a election to an independent pro—palestine candialready losing a chunk�*n to an independent pro—palestine candialready losing a chunk of after already losing a chunk of his frontbench over gaza, she surely he has to sack ed miliband the £28 billion green stuff was his flagship idea. this guy's a disaster. everything he touches turns to undiluted sewage. he was the

cabinet minister in gordon brown's government. he put forward legislation committing britain to an 80% cut in co2 emissions . international cost emissions. international cost estimates put that in at over £1 trillion. he's quite possibly the most expensive policy maker in british history. he brought just stop oils dale vince into the fold. he wanted nationalised energy companies , pushed for no energy companies, pushed for no new oil and gas licences , which new oil and gas licences, which has cost labour the support of the unions . has cost labour the support of the unions. he pushed labour the unions. he pushed for labour to national grid to commit to the national grid being carbon by which being carbon free by 2030, which is mission impossible. he couldn't even bring himself to buy an electric throughout buy an electric car throughout all the he's all of that. by the way, he's not even the most talented miliband, and miliband, is he? actually and that saying something that really is saying something because david's running a charity has been charity in america that has been accused the usa with accused of flooding the usa with illegal immigrants, he illegal immigrants, which he will . why do you remember will deny. why do you remember the ed stone when he tried and failed to be prime minister, yet that ended up as an ornament in a pub, restaurants, garden and himself ended up hosting pub quizzes . question number one in quizzes. question number one in what year did i stab my brother in back? question number two

in the back? question number two has anyone ever looked worse eating sandwich? if eating a bacon sandwich? if miliband doesn't resign, he should be sacked. but knowing starmer, he'd end giving him starmer, he'd end up giving him his job the day, his job back the next day, wouldn't maybe be when wes wouldn't he? maybe be when wes streeting his hands on the streeting gets his hands on the nhs, can fast track starmer nhs, he can fast track starmer up waiting because up the waiting list because somebody give him somebody needs to give him a backbone. get to the backbone. but let's get to the thoughts of my panel. we have the wonderful star daily telegraph columnist allison pearson. got conservative pearson. i've got conservative peer bailey for you as peer lord bailey for you as well. and former labour party adviser matthew laza allison is starmer useless and does miliband have to go? >> well, i think that the, uh, getting rid of the 28 billion green prosperity plan was a good idea because he was going to go into the general election with a ball around leg . ball and chain around his leg. the problem is, is ed miliband sat next to greta thunberg at an event and he's never quite recovered. patrick mean, he's recovered. patrick i mean, he's absolutely all this net absolutely believes all this net zero stuff, which is interesting. he is going to penalise ordinary working families. so labour, which is supposed to represent some of

the poorest people in society, is now shackled to a policy which is going to cause all this harm and it's just not going to be a green prospect plan. it's going to be a plan for higher energy bills. and so on. uh, ed miliband , as i know i agree with miliband, as i know i agree with you. i mean, you know, uh, true , you. i mean, you know, uh, true, truly dreadful. uh, starmer . but truly dreadful. uh, starmer. but again, as you said in your monologue, looking a lot clever. and next to rishi, who now is, you know, starmer would not starmer would not be popular if it wasn't next to rishi, who's now ratings down with prince andrew. i believe . seriously? yes. >> very different reasons. >> for very different reasons. it must be minus minus 47. >> i think they're on. >> i think they're on. >> uh, sean, when it comes to this flip flopping, i mean, by the way, that's not all it. the way, that's not all of it. there's we there's loads of all. we just didn't i mean, didn't have the time. i mean, it's absolute disgrace. these it's an absolute disgrace. these flip it's flip flops. i think it's actually serious actually more serious than people actually more serious than peoife actually more serious than peo if . you're imagine for a >> if. you're imagine for a second you're neutral, you're sat at home and see which one of these guys am i going to pick. you keir starmer you cannot trust keir starmer because to you cannot trust keir starmer bec elected to you cannot trust keir starmer bec elected . to you cannot trust keir starmer bec elected . and to you cannot trust keir starmer bec elected . and that's to get elected. and that's important because i often say

this i was not a corbyn fan , but this i was not a corbyn fan, but you could at least believe he believed what he was saying. and it's for a leader to it's important for a leader to believe what saying and believe what he's saying and it's keir starmer it's clear that keir starmer absolutely the absolutely doesn't. but the important ironic , me important thing here, ironic, me getting rid of this £28 billion, this politics it this proper politics because it was going to the country was going to sink the country and that is a fact. and what's interesting in labour's emotional heartland has been poorer people. but these these policies are absolutely the metropolitan elite. and um, people down here in london may be to afford them be able to afford them everywhere else. people are a little by them. little bit panicked by them. >> do think rishi believes >> do you think rishi believes stop boats, stop the boats, sean. >> i really hope i think he >> i really hope so. i think he does.i >> i really hope so. i think he does . i think >> i really hope so. i think he does. i think he does. >> i really hope so. i think he does . i think he does. the does. i think he does. but the problem he's had is that everybody in the political firmament attacked him. firmament has attacked him. everything has everything the government has tried to do, and he hasn't stopped tried to do, and he hasn't st0|that's the other problem. >> that's the other problem. he may in can't do it. >> it. as well? there it. >> as well? there is >> is that as well? there is that well. but he's been that as well. but he's been stopped by other people like i always in always say about the boats in particular, starmer particular, what would starmer do ? do? >> smash the gangs? >> smash the gangs? >> yeah . look, he >> well, yeah. but look, well he probably u—turn on that as probably would u—turn on that as well yeah. probably would u—turn on that as welthere yeah. probably would u—turn on that as welthere will yeah. probably would u—turn on that as welthere will be yeah. probably would u—turn on that as welthere will be no ah. on >> there will be no u—turn on

smash gangs. otherwise smash the gangs. otherwise i promise i promise you promise you that. i promise you that. as somebody who was that. look as somebody who was actually at the unveiling of the headstone, although the decision to it was above my pay to produce it was above my pay grade and was brought in make grade and was brought in to make sure ate bacon sure i'd never ate another bacon sandwich camera, i have sandwich near a camera, i have to him. look, i it to defend him. look, i mean, it has deep commitment to has a really deep commitment to the cause of tackling climate change. i think the party got itself in a mess by getting stuck figure 28 stuck with this figure of 28 billion, figures billion, which is figures revealed in 2021 when interest rates for government borrowing were 1. they're now 4. so you have to be a lot more careful about what you're borrowing to invest. but the key thing is that like that it wants to do, like insulating british insulating a million british homes the energy homes a year. so the energy bills for people . that's bills go down for people. that's going to be that's going to cost 4 going to 4 billion a year. it's going to be by on the be paid for by the levy on the oil industry , on the oil and gas industry, on the profits the oil and profits of the oil and gas industry. fine. so that's >> all right. fine. so that's that's paid for by that's going to be paid for by increasing the tax on oil and gas. >> not on the oil and gas. >> yeah, not on the oil and gas. excess profits of the oil and gas industry, not on people's energy bills. >> saying >> they're still saying they're going electricity going to decarbonise electricity by is a physical by 2030. that is a physical impossibility. and the price tag

for some of these things has been put between three and been put at between three and 4 trillion, i think trillion . trillion, i think trillion. >> i listen, i agree with you that the look, the problem with this policy was because i've heard the internal debates going on, there people on, i've been there where people have their have been shouting in their phones know, phones and having a, you know, quivering . problem quivering about it. the problem with sell on with it was you can't sell it on the doorstep. you can't sell 28 billion on the doorstep. you can sell, million homes warmer. the ”e- ”e.- >> the problem with the policy is to get is they'll say anything to get elected . and it's look, if elected. and it's look, if you're committing a mess, you're a of let country a lot of let the country in. >> sean. a lot of let the country in. >> again, is also nonsense >> again, that is also nonsense as because of these as well, because all of these plans under the plans were made under the spending that the labour party knew. conservative everybody knew. the conservative everybody in the country is going have in the country is going to have to with before the crazy to deal with before the crazy budget idea and idea a budget idea and this idea that a liz's budget somehow changed the world and they can continue world and that they can continue to it the which to blame it on the tories, which you will get away with some you will get away with for some time. but you're already using that credit at some point, something to say? no. >> labour were power. okay >> if labour were in power. okay right have right now, starmer would have lost of his frontbench lost half of his frontbench over gaza and he would have had to have of ed miliband have got rid of ed miliband oven have got rid of ed miliband over, over what's just happened

when i hear reports such as this is that when organisations spend time and oxygen in, uh, in calling the countryside racist, in telling people from ethnic minority backgrounds that they won't be welcome if they go into the countryside, then there's an awful danger that they might start to believe it. and that's exactly the opposite of what we want. we want the countryside to be an open and welcoming place for everyone from any kind of background , to go and visit. and background, to go and visit. and potentially, if they like what they see, to go and live, to go and make a career and a life out there. shoaib , i mean, this there. um, shoaib, i mean, this is load rubbish, is an absolute load of rubbish, isn't course it isn't. um, >> no, of course it isn't. um, and in fact , it's not the first and in fact, it's not the first report that said this . um, report that said this. um, obviously, you know , the obviously, you know, the countryside alliance and others would more about the would know more about the history, just looking history, but just looking at it today , you know, since 22,003, today, you know, since 22,003, at least, so for the past 20 years, every 2 or 3 years, we have reports who said this. and in everything there in fact, everything that there was report actually was a report actually commissioned by defra, i believe. government, uh, believe. so the government, uh,

2017 which actually 2017 or 2019, which actually have the same findings. so the point is, every time this is this does come out, every time there is research into this, those people get boycotted, those people get boycotted, those cancelled . those people get cancelled. >> know the racial demographics of rural areas in britain are 96% white. what it just it's not racist. it just happens to be in britain . show it. well yes, but britain. show it. well yes, but that's exactly the point. >> that's what we need to change then. why it needs to be okay. >> okay. good, good. no >> okay. good, good. no >> here we go. i >> here we go, here we go. i want this chat. so how want to have this chat. so how do you change the racial demographics of the countryside show? i don't think >> well, i don't i don't think we're necessarily talking about change in demographics necessarily. long necessarily. obviously long time. would be really time. that would be really positive firstly, positive thing. but firstly, i mean actually encouraging mean just actually encouraging people to actually go there even just to spend the day there for a brief holiday. and that's the whole think we're whole point. i don't think we're necessarily about, necessarily talking about, you know, farmers in necessarily talking about, you kno uk farmers in necessarily talking about, you kno uk white? farmers in necessarily talking about, you kno uk white? why farmers in necessarily talking about, you kno uk white? why aren'tzrs in necessarily talking about, you kno uk white? why aren't they the uk white? why aren't they more or black farmers? more asian or black farmers? that's the point that's not the point. the point is even for day why do is even for a day out, why do ethnic minority i would argue, okay, i would argue potentially

david, david, that there is a bit of racism here. >> i mean, good grief, if people from ethnic minorities don't want to the countryside want to go to the countryside because they don't want to look at white that's disgusting. >> well, i mean , i agree with >> well, i mean, i agree with shoaib that it's absolutely a good thing for people to go and visit countryside , visit the countryside, regardless background regardless of their background and i would fully encourage everyone to and that. and everyone to go and do that. and i you know, i hopefully he i think you know, i hopefully he and i can unite in saying in, uh, two people, be they from ethnic minority backgrounds or others , if you're considering others, if you're considering going out and visiting the countryside, acquainting yourself, getting to know it a bit, do that . absolutely do bit, do that. absolutely do that. go and support all of the wonderful rural businesses that we have out there. go and see the beautiful landscape. some of the beautiful landscape. some of the landscapes the beautiful landscape. some of the this landscapes the beautiful landscape. some of the this world landscapes the beautiful landscape. some of the this world has.andscapes the beautiful landscape. some of the this world has to dscapes the beautiful landscape. some of the this world has to offeres the beautiful landscape. some of the this world has to offer and that this world has to offer and go and enjoy it, because you will find regardless of your background, that there's a lot to appreciate in it. and uh, you know, if people don't want to do that, maybe they've got their own reasons for it. that's entirely a matter for them, i

would say. but really, the message needs to be there's so much out there to go and much out there for you to go and see, enjoy and please, see, to enjoy. and please, please . please do that. >> sherry, when was the last time you went to the countryside? >> um , probably about two years >> um, probably about two years ago. >> to be honest, when we actually took a, um. because that's the point. i mean, to be honest, when, you know, when a, when a ethnic minority family gets together, going to gets together, they're going to the countryside going to the lake the first lake district isn't the first destination comes mind . destination that comes to mind. and that's the point you wouldn't necessarily think, you know, going away for a know, we're going away for a day. that's where we should go. and point. you and that's the whole point. you know like saying, so. know, like i was saying, so. >> so why not? it's the latest i used to live the latest used to live with the latest rates. okay. by the way rates. okay. it's by the way full tourists full of japanese tourists because there's massive because there's a massive attraction for the beatrix potter stuff that there is there. >> and wordsworth this stuff. >> so and foremost, can >> so first and foremost, can i just the idea that the lake just say the idea that the lake district is a white only space is nuts and untrue? >> you personally >> so what do you personally show? are you trying to claim that the reason why you don't go to with your to the countryside with your family you feel family is, is because you feel like excluded?

like you're racially excluded? i'm well, yes. >> i mean, to be honest, if you are asking me. exactly. um, you know, then yes. and that's the whole not me, whole point. it's not just me, it's it's my it's my parents, it's my siblings. children. siblings. it's the children. it's families. you know, generally families generally for whole families getting black getting together a black or asian not asian family would not necessarily less of. the necessarily think less of. the lake day us necessarily think less of. the la go day us necessarily think less of. the la go and day us necessarily think less of. the la go and spend day us necessarily think less of. the la go and spend the ay us necessarily think less of. the la go and spend the day, us necessarily think less of. the la go and spend the day, and to go and spend the day, and that's whole and that's the whole point. and that's the whole point. and that's is that's what the research is looking then the media looking at. but then the media and others, you they cling looking at. but then the media an> what is it? we could posdefinition. countryside. >> what is it? we could posdefinition. coiloadside. >> what is it? we could posdefinition. coiload ofe. by definition. it's a load of open fields and spaces. you hardly anyone. half the time hardly see anyone. half the time you're in the countryside anyway, seeing white anyway, let alone seeing white people just people or anywhere you just see sheep. and sheep. you just see cows and fields hills lakes. fields and hills and lakes. occasionally. david go on. what could make the could you do to make the countryside more welcoming for ethnic needs ethnic minorities? what needs to

be trouble is, patrick, >> but the trouble is, patrick, i find myself agreeing i find to find myself agreeing with you in that i agree with both of you in that i agree with both of you in that i agree with that, uh, there with shahab that, uh, if there are things that can be done to make countryside feel more make the countryside feel more welcoming and open to people again , regardless of background, again, regardless of background, because i'm not particularly interested in going down the rabbit hole on race specifically, but equally , i specifically, but equally, i agree with you that it's quite difficult to see what exactly those steps might be. so i mean, perhaps part of it might turn out to be a marketing scenario. you know, maybe rural areas need to spend more on, uh, more effort, more time on marketing themselves to people in urban areas because ultimately you've got to go to people where they are. um, and, and i think ultimately at showing the attractiveness of the countryside and promoting it to people is going to be part of the solution . the solution. >> i think the marketing is the m6 . get on it, drive up it, and m6. get on it, drive up it, and you're in the countryside anyway. all right. look both of you, very, very much. you, thank you very, very much. thatis

you, thank you very, very much. that is human rights lawyer there. of course, shoaib khan and countryside alliance spokesperson david who spokesperson david been. who do you with? okay the claim you agree with? okay the claim that, charities that, uh, wildlife charities have made that the british countryside and countryside is a racist and colonial space. jane on x colonial white space. jane on x says i believe the charities saying this are racist against white people. i say i white people. i must say i thought sorry the idea thought that i'm sorry the idea that are can't go to the that you are can't go to the countryside full white countryside. it's full of white people. that's quite people. i think that's quite horrendous. on x says horrendous. manned on x says i've been to much of the uk countryside with my asian family . experience any . not once did we experience any racism and neither did we give a damn that mainly of damn that it was mainly full of white actually white fellow brits. we actually enjoyed those white enjoyed meeting all those white people . these charities to people. these charities need to shut strong stuff shut up. well, it's strong stuff in inbox there. your verdict in the inbox there. your verdict is now in. 5% of you agree that the british countryside is racist and colonial. white space. 95% of you say that you disagree. good. well done. now coming up, the home secretary today launched a raft of new protest laws , including jail for protest laws, including jail for scaling . national monuments and scaling. national monuments and yobs, who show terrorist sympathies . can yobs, who show terrorist sympathies. can i just point out that was already illegal right.

but if suella braverman right that james cleverly sweeping changes don't go far enough. no nonsense former tory prisons minister ann widdecombe lets rip at that shortly. but first, terrifying details have emerged. now in court this week that an afghan man who lied to gain asylum in britain was allegedly asylum in britain was allegedly a russian spy met david cameron, worked for the foreign office and even our intelligence services. so does this case now prove our asylum system is a global laughing stock? nigel farage is on that. and the bombshell rwanda files . that's bombshell rwanda files. that's next. it's patrick christys tonight. we're only on

>> no nonsense >> n0 nonsense former >> no nonsense former tory minister ann widdecombe coming up, but time now for nigel farage. >> and if things weren't already bad enough, it's now been alleged that a refugee from afghanistan who met david cameron gordon brown, the now king charles, has lied to gain asylum in britain before working in the foreign office and having access to a lot of our intelligence , and is a russian intelligence, and is a russian spy, intelligence, and is a russian spy, the man who is accused of being groomed by russia from the age of five, also also worked for gchq and m16 , a court heard for gchq and m16, a court heard this week. this is a bingo card for gchq and m16, a court heard thidisasterthis is a bingo card for gchq and m16, a court heard thidisaster ,his is a bingo card for gchq and m16, a court heard thidisaster , isn't a bingo card for gchq and m16, a court heard thidisaster , isn't it?:)ingo card for gchq and m16, a court heard thidisaster , isn't it? hejo card for gchq and m16, a court heard thidisaster , isn't it? he wasird of disaster, isn't it? he was stripped of his british citizenship in 2019 after m15 believed that he was an agent for the russian military intelligence agency, accused of orchestrating, by the that orchestrating, by the way, that nerve agent attack in salisbury orchestrating, by the way, that n

is fighting a legal battle to reverse the uk government's decision to strip him of his citizenship. but, crucially , he citizenship. but, crucially, he admitted in court that he did lie on his asylum application because he made up story about because he made up a story about fleeing war and admitted the fact already lived fact that he had already lived in years. nigel in russia for six years. nigel farage joins me now. nigel this is just an absolute farce , isn't it? >> it is, though, to give some balance. patrick, we have had, uh, russian spies deep at the heart of our security services in the past. they were the ones, of course, who all went to cambridge for some reason . so we cambridge for some reason. so we have seen these things before where, um, you know, don't think that cambridge is a modern phenomenon. um, but but this is just one case of . so many now just one case of. so many now that we're seeing in the asylum system and perhaps the most extraordinary, even more extraordinary, even more extraordinary is the extraordinary than this is the chemical attacker from clapham, twice refused. then gets a sexual assault convictions , says

sexual assault convictions, says that he's joined the church of england, which most of us are leaving at the moment, but says he's joined the church of england and is allowed to stay. and every way you look, you just see an asylum system that is failing. when you think that we've given asylum to over half a million people since 2016, you've got to ask yourself , how you've got to ask yourself, how many bad guys are in there just how many people in there intend to do us harm? so the whole thing is a complete catastrophe . thing is a complete catastrophe. >> i mean, there may well be an issue well with catholic issue as well with the catholic and church, which and the baptist church, which we can't it comes to can't ignore when it comes to these conversions . i think can't ignore when it comes to these conversions. i think this is and the is something. and by the way, make you keep it gb news make sure you keep it gb news because there is a scoop coming your bit later your way a little bit later on, which church which does relate to the church of and asylum claims. so of england and asylum claims. so really, seriously . do watch out really, seriously. do watch out for that one. but nigel, you've slammed rishi sunak in the home office wilfully deceiving office for wilfully deceiving the rwanda plan the nation over the rwanda plan after exclusively after you exclusively revealed on show last night. and i on your show last night. and i think the night before as well, that can still

that illegal migrants can still delay removal for 180 days despite the illegal migration bill, the backlog to enter the system for removal could reach nearly 150 k, and i mean, it's just absolutely ridiculous, isn't it? what's going on here? maximum of 500 deportations to rwanda. so essentially, nigel, have you just exposed that rishi sunak been lying about sunak has been lying about rwanda ? rwanda? >> yes. march the 7th. last yean >> yes. march the 7th. last year, stood behind a podium year, he stood behind a podium with the slogan stop the boats told with the illegal told us that with the illegal migration bill, which became an act in july , that if you come act in july, that if you come here, you will, you know, cross the channel, you will not be able to claim asylum , you will able to claim asylum, you will be detained and you will be deported. you will not be able to stay begum , you know, even to stay begum, you know, even more dramatic than anything bons more dramatic than anything boris said, even more dramatic than anything suella or pretty said when they were home secretaries and the documents that i was shown , an internal that i was shown, an internal home office document showing no, none of that's actually true, that the fact is you can have an appeal that will last up to 180

days, but we only have detention facilities for a thousand people. and most of those are used up by syria . foreign used up by syria. foreign criminals who've already been caughtin criminals who've already been caught in our system . the caught in our system. the admission that the absconding rate would be very high and that the backlog would go up to between 150 and 200,000 by mid 2026. i mean, literally , 2026. i mean, literally, literally at the moment he was making his promises. he was being told none of this is going to work. none of this is possible. and is it any wonder that his personal ratings are now on a par with prince andrew? is it any wonder that their national poll rating was at 20? just the other day? i mean, john major's worse was 30% back in 97 when they got obliterated by blair and you can do lots of things with the british public, but you can't lie to them. you just can't lie to them. and that

is what sunak has done. and he will. and it doesn't even matter now what he says between now and the election. he will not be forgiven. >> i'm just going to read a statement from the home office to you, nigel. i'll get you to react to it. so a home office spokesperson said the spokesperson said both the british and rwandan governments have this have always made clear that this scheme is uncapped, with the will to build will and ability to build capacity over time. in rwanda, we not comment unverified we do not comment on unverified leaked documents, so that's their response . nigel. what's their response. nigel. what's yours? well the number was 500. >> the document said in year one, the maximum number we could send was 500. and then if things go well, it might go up in years two or 3 to 3500 was the most that were ever going to go to rwanda in year one. and still, you know, yesterday at pmqs, he was still talking about rwanda. i you know, i mean, was still talking about rwanda. iyou know, i mean, i know there i you know, i mean, i know there was a bet recent that the prime minister made funny isn't it? he made a bet and all the cabinet said we're not. oh, we're not betting people i am . um,

betting people where i am. um, and i'd be very happy to have a bet with anyone . but, you know, bet with anyone. but, you know, anything they like . but not a anything they like. but not a single plane will go to rwanda between now and the next. general election. and we've been led up the garden path. we've been lied to . it's almost as if, been lied to. it's almost as if, you know, chuck some red meat to the children and it'll all be fine. they'll forget about it. we're not going to know. >> now, look , we all saw some >> now, look, we all saw some crazy scenes from the dentist in bristol yesterday , okay? with bristol yesterday, okay? with a queue of people running down the road, the government is offering £20,000 to dentists who want to return to the nhs and help sort the crisis, which is ridiculous, by the way, because you just just be a dentist in private care and become a millionaire, all but tory and reform all right. but tory and reform mps now told the prime mps have now told the prime minister that the problem has been to been exacerbated by migration to britain . been exacerbated by migration to britain. nigel, been exacerbated by migration to britain . nigel, are been exacerbated by migration to britain. nigel, are immigrants taking your dental appointments? >> so it really interesting last night on my show here on the great gb news i, i had a

representative on, you know, senior representative of the dental profession and i said what's the problem . he said what's the problem. he said there are too few dentists . i there are too few dentists. i said, do you think a rise of 10 million in the population since blair came to power might be a factor? on no, nothing to do with it. there just aren't enough dentists and it's amazing. everywhere you go, everywhere you go. anyway dodi in a position of authority is in total denial about what an unplanned population explosion has done and whether it's dentistry, whether it's health care, whether it's primary school places in certain parts of the country, whether it's, you know, available . you know, available. accessibility of housing, the biggest single problem we face in this country is we have a population explosion that is damaging the quality of life for every single one of us. and no one, but no one wants to even talk about it. and dentistry, it's perfectly clear we have too

few dentists . it's for few dentists. it's for a population that's risen by 10 million. >> yeah, exactly . and the mental >> yeah, exactly. and the mental gymnastics these people do, david amess, are the problem with social media. you've got mike freer or mps need to be nicer to each other. when they converse, address the converse, they can't address the real room there, real elephant in the room there, which of is islamism. which of course is islamism. you've said there they'll do anything isn't anything to say that it isn't rapid population growth fuelled anything to say that it isn't rapid p0|migration,owth fuelled anything to say that it isn't rapid p0| migration, owth to elled anything to say that it isn't rapid p0|migration,owth to tease by mass migration, just to tease ahead something i'll doing ahead to something i'll be doing at way , i just at 10:00. by the way, i just take look at what the take a little look at what the human record are in human rights record are in places like afghanistan and iran, where have a lot of iran, where we do have a lot of men across on boats. and iran, where we do have a lot of njust across on boats. and iran, where we do have a lot of njust wonderacross on boats. and iran, where we do have a lot of njust wonder whether| boats. and iran, where we do have a lot of njust wonder whether or)ats. and iran, where we do have a lot of njust wonder whether or not. and i just wonder whether or not feminists actually should want to boats. nigel, to stop the boats. but, nigel, look, thank you very, very much. as tremendous to have you look, thank you very, very much. as the tremendous to have you look, thank you very, very much. as the show. endous to have you look, thank you very, very much. as the show. always to have you look, thank you very, very much. as the show. always appreciateu on the show. always appreciate your that is nigel farage your time. that is nigel farage getting whole host getting through a whole host of hard next hard hitting topics now, next monday, prime minister will monday, the prime minister will take part in the special people's forum. it's going to be live and we're in the north east, and it's only to be east, and it's only going to be on so look over the on gb news. so look over the course hour he'll take a course of the hour he'll take a load questions from load of questions directly from you, public. load of questions directly from you really public. load of questions directly from you really important public. load of questions directly from you really important this 3lic. it's really important this actually make sure that you have your okay. so want to

that. next is patrick christys. tonight we're only on gb

is patrick christys tonight only on gb news. coming up, minister for common sense, esther mcvey exclusively reveals what whitehall's woke brigade don't want. you to know. but first, james cleverly is today announced a crackdown on disruptive protests with police in england and wales to be given powers to arrest protesters who cover their faces and scale national monuments . now, while national monuments. now, while the home office might be trying to these as new laws , these to bill these as new laws, these offences are already covered by existing legislation . so it's existing legislation. so it's been left to the former home secretary, suella braverman, to come something come up with something new. she's called ministers be she's called for ministers to be given authority to totally given the authority to totally ban some protests. look, lots to go out here. i'm joined by the former prisons minister ann widdecombe, and thank you very, very much . is braverman right? very much. is braverman right? should allowed to ban some

should we be allowed to ban some protests? do you think i didn't i want to any i wouldn't want to ban any peaceful protest. >> we live in a democracy and i'm great advocate of free i'm a great advocate of free speech. a protest is speech. and if a protest is lawful and peaceful and notice has been given and all the rest of it , i has been given and all the rest of it, i really don't want to ban that sort of protest . and we ban that sort of protest. and we have laws, as you've rightly said, to deal with the more disruptive type of protests and as far as i'm concerned, you know, it . fine. if what . rishi know, it. fine. if what. rishi wants to do is to, if you like, clarify those laws and make it explicit rather than leaving it as implicit. i mean , for as implicit. i mean, for example, climbing public monuments is not an offence in itself , but obviously if it is, itself, but obviously if it is, if it's an act of vandalism, so he wants to make things explicit . i have no problem with that. um, but my problem has been for some time now that the police have just not been sufficiently active. >> well, this is it. and i just

don't know if this changes that. and let's take the face coverings one as an example. yeah. okay because let's say yeah. okay because so let's say on saturday we have however many tens of thousands of people , as tens of thousands of people, as we have done every day for the last few months now, every weekend for the last few months, i say, walking through i should say, walking through london face coverings. i london on face coverings. i mean, see some mean, people could see some stuff video there. we're stuff in the video there. we're not going to arrest 10,000 people, we? not going to arrest 10,000 peo no. we? not going to arrest 10,000 peo no. if we? people had >> no. and if 10,000 people had their covered, i think you their faces covered, i think you would justified in would be absolutely justified in just protest. just just banning the protest. just saying stopping saying that's it. i'm stopping it. i really think that would be justified . but if a dozen people justified. but if a dozen people have got face coverings, you arrest that dozen, but you do arrest that dozen, but you do arrest them . arrest them. >> but this is the problem . >> but this is the problem. they're not going to, are they? because because there's a shortage of police, there's a shortage of police, there's a shortage of police, there's a shortage of prison places. >> there's a shortage of custody places . because if you take places. because if you take somebody into the police station, then have to process them. you know, it's not a we don't live in a dictatorship. we don't live in a dictatorship. we don't just throw them straight into prison. you've got all the

processes go which processes to go through which take of time and, take a huge amount of time and, and really this has been a problem now that's been accumulating over many, many years . i can accumulating over many, many years. i can remember when i was shadow home secretary in 1999, making a speech about the, you know, the burdens on the police and what we should be doing about it. we haven't done any of it. no, no, we've not. >> and, you know, here we are changing laws in this changing our laws in this country something is country for something that is essentially to do with people protesting about a foreign issue on the streets of britain. i think that speaks volumes about where we are. i'm just going to shift us bit because shift us on a bit because a couple stories. want couple of big stories. i want to get views so speaking couple of big stories. i want to geitv views so speaking couple of big stories. i want to geitv lastews so speaking couple of big stories. i want to geitv last night, so speaking couple of big stories. i want to geitv last night, rishi;peaking couple of big stories. i want to geitv last night, rishi sunakg to itv last night, rishi sunak had some words his had some warm words for his former boss boris johnson. should have look ? should we have a look? >> no, i mean i'm proud of the work that we did together and we worked well together for a long time. >> notice you didn't answer >> i notice you didn't answer whether him back. whether you'd have him back. well, i never talk about these personal well, i never talk about these persknow, i speak to an occasion. >> we work well together. i spoke to can't remember, spoke to i can't remember, right. year .

right. probably late last year. >> what do you make of that, then? and do you think that he should bring boris back into his cabinet? >> think whatever >> look, i don't think whatever he would be he does, i mean, boris would be a bet than david a much better bet than david cameron. certainty. cameron. that's for a certainty. but i don't think whatever he doesis but i don't think whatever he does is going to much does is going to make much difference. to conservative difference. now to conservative chances at the general chances at the next general election. they've election. they they've completely blown they had completely blown it. they had a vast majority . so many vast majority. so many opportunities even given covid so many opportunities and all they've done is fight each other. it's the age old problem. you've got the officers brawling in the mess and the troops had action stations in the country, and eventually the troops just desert. >> but they walked into a labour trap, labour >> but they walked into a labour trap, boris labour >> but they walked into a labour trap, boris out labour >> but they walked into a labour trap, boris out . labour >> but they walked into a labour trap, boris out . well, bour >> but they walked into a labour trap, boris out . well, i)ur >> but they walked into a labour trap, boris out . well, i think wanted boris out. well, i think the conservatives allowed the labour party to dethrone a sitting prime minister with a massive majority and widespread support in the red wall, especially . and they just let especially. and they just let them they let them do that. yeah. well they wouldn't have let if they hadn't let them do it if they hadn't been divided amongst themselves. >> is the whole >> i mean, that is the whole point. , united we point. you know, united we stand, divided fall . we've stand, divided we fall. we've got i've said this to you

got a i've said this to you before, but we've got really before, but we've got a really second parliament. you've second rate parliament. you've got panic, you've got people who panic, you've got people no sense of people who have no sense of history proportion. none at history and proportion. none at all. therefore for that, all. and therefore for that, thatis all. and therefore for that, that is why labour is allowed sometimes to walk all over them. >> yeah, they are , i just think >> yeah, they are, i just think it will go down as one of the greatest soft coups ever. it will seriously , the idea that will seriously, the idea that they allowed, they just allowed they allowed, they just allowed the labour party essentially to get rid of a guy who just won an absolutely stonking election. you just had to look at who was happiest when that happened, right? was happiest? right? who was happiest? the labour party will have been having all having champagne parties and all of this stuff, they? of this stuff, won't they? but can view . and can we get your view. and please, on the matter close to your heart? i think it's the church england being accused church of england being accused of game the of helping migrants. game the asylum system. speak a little bit this week, there was asylum system. speak a little bispokesperson neek, there was asylum system. speak a little bispokesperson fork, there was asylum system. speak a little bispokesperson for the 1ere was asylum system. speak a little bispokesperson for the 1ere wa�*of a spokesperson for the church of england abdullah england who said, um abdullah zigi case is clearly shocking and distressing incidents. our thoughts and prayers are with those affected by it. but as we've said, it is ultimately the role home office to role of the home office to

decide who comes into our country. are you a bit let down by the church of england? do you think? >> well, i left the church of england because i already felt so let down, and that was in the 1990s. and they've just gone from from bad to worse. but i would make this very serious point that if somebody converts to is baptised, to christianity and is baptised, thatis to christianity and is baptised, that is a sacrament, and to actually give that sacrament , if actually give that sacrament, if you suspect that it's not genuinely required that is sacrilege. that is sacrilege . sacrilege. that is sacrilege. and i make no apology for saying so . 50. >> so. >> what should the punishment be for that, do you think? >> well, i mean, in past times, um, you know, you would have had the, clergy courts, what the, the clergy courts, what they do now is shrug their shoulders , basically. and it was shoulders, basically. and it was well, we got to say about this, i this all going on. i mean, this is all going on. he's a squeak . he's hardly uttered a squeak. >> well, we've gone to the church of england. i mean, i've gone to them i think six times in the last 48 hours. and they just keep sending me that

load of rabid misogyny? that's. >> yeah, we really do, patrick. i mean, we didn't have until relatively recently these things called honour crimes. i mean, they're horrible, horrible crimes. this guy is eddie. um allegedly has poured , you know, allegedly has poured, you know, drain cleaner over a woman. he was believed to be in a relationship with. and children. and that we have our , you know, and that we have our, you know, we have our own domestic violence problems. but this is particularly acute coming from countries where women are second class citizens. now this guy coming from afghanistan , you coming from afghanistan, you just outlined the treatment of girls there for me. if we're going to have asylum seekers, i'd like to have afghan young women and girls who can't, who can't go to schools or colleges. i don't young like i don't want fit young men like this who have ingrained in him culturally that women are property. if one disobeys you, you chuck something in her face so she is blinded. okay, so it's absolutely disgusting and it's true that the left in this country say , oh, the poor asylum

country say, oh, the poor asylum seekers pretty. patel has said very, very well put the victims first. you know, let's forget about these horrible foreign criminals. but it's always the pity criminals. but it's always the pity vote for these people. and it's really disgusting. i'm very concerned . we know lots of these concerned. we know lots of these asylum seekers hanging around hsi junior schools. patrick, you know, approaching young girls. we saw what happened in rochdale. you've imported these men from these countries . we men from these countries. we women in this country and indeed men who love women , fought very men who love women, fought very hard for the equality women have in this country. and we don't want these disgusting men importing their cruel and horrible practices against women. >> sean , look, one of the >> sean, look, one of the problems that we could be deaung problems that we could be dealing with uncontrolled immigration is importing social problems for the future . problems for the future. >> it always the left have a blindness , don't they, for this blindness, don't they, for this inconvenient truth that these people do not share any of your liberal views. that liberal views. now, is that a reason to stop a person coming here? not. but you need here? probably not. but you need to look what's to to look at what's going to happen when they hit a community. there's many communities that's communities, a country that's

growing and growing at a pace and immigration is very big part immigration is a very big part of have these of that, that don't have these liberal will become liberal views that will become social on. social problems from here on. and into the future. and certainly into the future. and certainly into the future. and if we don't discuss those things be things now, we'll only be deaung things now, we'll only be dealing with the problems. we won't anything won't be dealing with anything to mitigate those those problems. it's not problems. and look, it's not new. 1982, we already had the new. in 1982, we already had the first conversations about sharia court , so they were setting up court, so they were setting up shana court, so they were setting up sharia to sharia courts in 92 to administer muslim weddings or break downs. but the core problem for me with something like that is the law should be the same for everyone. and i remember the archbishop of canterbury at the time, i think it was rowan wilkinson was making speeches saying we should be and that be accommodating that and that shows you that's where it changes where left changes and where the left really blind spot. you really have a blind spot. you saw it with terror suspects saw it with with terror suspects that to re—educate. that we're trying to re—educate. they a weeks hanging they think a few weeks hanging around somebody who reads around with somebody who reads the to change the guardian is going to change someone's the guardian is going to change someon it's not true . what beliefs, it's not true. what they will do is change the communities around them. and that's need that's something we need to be aware of. yeah >> look, matthew, you know, do you left is you think that the left is honest enough about the fact that coming

that we have people coming over on boats who maybe not necessarily getting here illegally, possibly necessarily getting here illeg come possibly necessarily getting here illeg come countries ly necessarily getting here illeg come countries where they come from countries where women are treated like worse than second class citizens. how do we expect that to end? >> well, look, i think we need to first all, we to say, first of all, that we can't who can't say that everybody who arrives boat, let arrives on a small boat, let alone legal alone everybody who's a legal migrant countries which do migrant from countries which do have different social norms to us, is necessarily misogynist . us, is necessarily misogynist. so i don't think we should we should put everybody same should put everybody in the same bracket, , bracket, but absolutely, integration is a thing . um, integration is a huge thing. um, it was actually a big issue in the last labour government. i get when this get disappointed when this becomes issue becomes a left right issue because actually, you know, under government under the last labour government , whatever else , gordon brown, whatever else you , was very you think about him, was very big and british values you think about him, was very big on and british values you think about him, was very big on andnottish values you think about him, was very big on andnot livingilues you think about him, was very big on andnot living inas on, on, on people not living in separate but equal communities, which big issue. when there which is a big issue. when there were in north of were race riots in the north of england during labour england during the last labour government. i'm saying government. now, i'm not saying that the citizenship exam everybody now is everybody has to sit now is exactly solution the exactly the solution to the problem, was problem, but at least it was a nod direction and we nod in that direction and we haven't had a big enough national conversation about about you know, we do about that. so you know, we do need make sure people need to make sure that people share our values. >> i'd say the world has changed

because is very, because what the left is very, very is identity very guilty of now is identity politics. and that plays exactly into this. i came from a very big muslim community where i grew really good, decent grew up, really good, decent people family in a way that people did family in a way that i think the whole world can learn but what identity learn from. but what identity politics did to community politics did to their community in separate us, and all in mind was separate us, and all of sudden you looked of a sudden you looked at everybody were everybody differently. we were working on the fact we were working on the fact that we were different, not british. and i think problem. if think that's a problem. and if you put that against today's going where everything you put that against today's going apparentlyverything you put that against today's going apparently isything you put that against today's going apparently is second british apparently is second class or shouldn't adhered to class or shouldn't be adhered to , should the british , or we should hate the british past that mix with past those mix that mix with people's held views that they've they've imported with could be a very big social problem in the future. >> do you know what's the greatest agent, solvent of greatest agent, the solvent of these difficult problems mums these difficult problems is mums . and rishi sunak gave a interview in which he said that his mum had wanted them to speak without accents. his family okay, the kids in his family and a lot of women, particularly in some of these communities, muslim communities , particularly muslim communities, particularly where men are still ruling the

roost, the women aren't allowed, they're not fully participating in the workplace . given a in the workplace. given a chance, most mothers want their sons and daughters to be as good as anybody else's or better to have the same stuff to speak well, to present well, to go and make a success of their life. if you put a cap on female expectations in those communities, you are never going to have, i think, and i think it's really important that the politicians listen to and seek out views of women in out the views of women in communities because the community often tend community leaders who often tend to overwhelmingly men, to be almost overwhelmingly men, are often people that people are often the people that people listen . listen to. >> they're the who joined >> they're the people who joined the local political party, whether or whether it was the tories or laboun whether it was the tories or labour, influence. labour, and exert influence. >> winds me labour, and exert influence. >> right? winds me labour, and exert influence. >> right? because winds me labour, and exert influence. >> right? because you ninds me labour, and exert influence. >> right? because you cans me labour, and exert influence. >> right? because you can see; up, right? because you can see it. clear. it's crystal it. it's so clear. it's crystal clear got in a lot clear that you've got in a lot of communities basically of these communities. basically all men. all all of the leaders are men. all of spokespeople are men. of the spokespeople are men. there's massive segregation as well at certain religious things that take place there. you see a load of women who never leave, neven load of women who never leave, never, never leave the house. >> mean, remember >> yeah. i mean, i remember doing a calling out. doing a calling this out. >> the real problem is any politician, particularly if they're talks about this,

they're white talks about this, gets they're gets treated as if they're racist . i from community racist. i come from a community where have been the where women have been the absolute boost i came here, i grew up in a single parent family. my mum ran the roost, my grandmother and the way she viewed is why i'm in grandmother and the way she vievlords. is why i'm in grandmother and the way she vievlords. from is why i'm in grandmother and the way she vievlords. from my why i'm in grandmother and the way she vievlords. from my grandmother's the lords. from my grandmother's lap to sitting on that red bench. and there's a women in my community that pushed it forward. community forward. if you have a community that women in that eradicates its women in that eradicates its women in that particularly if that way, particularly if they're community, you're they're a poor community, you're that community finished. that community is finished. absolutely >> don't mess with mrs. bailey, do no, not at all. >> don't mess with mrs. bailey, do i mean, at all. >> don't mess with mrs. bailey, do i mean, so all. >> don't mess with mrs. bailey, do i mean, so there's this >> i mean, so there's this thing that which that the left talk about, which is intersectionality, is called intersectionality, where know, you're where it's, you know, you're more level more than one level of oppression. so you're not just black, woman, black, you're a black woman, you've intersectional you've got it's intersectional oppression. and i think sometimes left , remember sometimes the left, remember that works the that that actually works the other , because what other way as well, because what you've you've seen you've seen is you've seen in communities tower hamlets communities in tower hamlets where been stuck communities in tower hamlets wh lampposts, been stuck communities in tower hamlets whlampposts, know, stuck communities in tower hamlets whlampposts, know, saying, on lampposts, you know, saying, you know, you know, you know, gay 9° yo” you know, you know, you know, gay 9° y°u 9° gay guys go home, you know, go home. and i'm putting that politely. you know, my best friend brick politely. you know, my best friendand brick politely. you know, my best friendand i brick politely. you know, my best friendand i tell brick politely. you know, my best friendand i tell iwhat, he lane. and i tell you what, he gets the f word thrown at him every uh, every friday afternoon, uh, on brick lane . so, you know, the brick lane. so, you know, the left look at, you know, left needs to look at, you know, how different, um , identity

totally separate issue altogether . whether and i totally separate issue altogether. whether and i think it was crass that keir starmer should have tried to have brought the two issues together totally separate , and therefore totally separate, and therefore this was about saying a fact which , uh, the prime minister which, uh, the prime minister did. and he shouldn't be apologising for saying that because it was about keir starmer and that he doesn't know what a woman is. yeah. >> one thing that stood out to me was that keir starmer said today , today of all or this today, today of all days or this week all weeks, we can't do. week of all weeks, we can't do. well, implies to me that well, that implies to me that he would change he would chop and change what he thinks on thinks or what he says based on his , because he was his watching, because he was saying, well, can't saying, well, you can't you can't say when, when can't say that when, when brianna's my, um, is up there, you know, you think, well, hang on a minute. fact fact. on a minute. a fact is a fact. so to on a minute. a fact is a fact. so a to on a minute. a fact is a fact. so a biological to on a minute. a fact is a fact. so a biological woman to what a biological woman is, no, but is what, um , but i think this is what, um, i'll say socialists do. >> keir starmer does too close down any kind of free speech and talking about an issue . and as talking about an issue. and as i said, he brought to issues

together, which was wrong to try and close down, uh, a conversation about him not knowing what a woman was . and i knowing what a woman was. and i think that is actually sinful . think that is actually sinful. >> okay. it has been a bit of a gaffe filled week . some would gaffe filled week. some would say, though, for rishi sunak , say, though, for rishi sunak, depending on which side you look at it, do you think he's got the political nous to be prime minister? do you think he's got the political nous to win an election? on election? you know, betting on the example ? the rwanda plan, for example? >> mean, what are >> what do you mean, what are you trying to say? that he was in interview and somebody you trying to say? that he was in to iterview and somebody you trying to say? that he was in to him,aw and somebody you trying to say? that he was in to him, oh and somebody you trying to say? that he was in to him, oh ,nd somebody you trying to say? that he was in to him, oh , wouldiebody you trying to say? that he was in to him, oh , would youjy you trying to say? that he was in to him, oh , would you put said to him, oh, would you put £1,000 or whatever is on a bet ? £1,000 or whatever is on a bet? and he's having a conversation ? and he's having a conversation? are you closing down conversations? because i'd say that was a jocular conversation. and actually rishi put and i actually thought rishi put his money where mouth was. his money where his mouth was. he's , believe plan he's saying, i believe my plan will work . and yes, i would now, will work. and yes, i would now, if we're saying people can't even have what i would have thought would be just a conversation oh , conversation with somebody, oh, i bet you squillion million or i bet you a squillion million or whatever. we whatever. if you're saying we can't . and i think

can't even do that. and i think that's a nonsense. i believe in free of free speech, freedom of expression . and i do believe expression. and i do believe that rishi, unlike that actually, rishi, unlike keir starmer , stands by what he keir starmer, stands by what he believes. i think, you know , you believes. i think, you know, you know, is a man , uh , keir know, this is a man, uh, keir starmer, who was going to renationalise now isn't it? was going to get rid of student fees now isn't doesn't believe in brexit now he does . and we've brexit now he does. and we've got biggest car crash for got the biggest car crash for labour their flagship policy 28 billion a year on their green . billion a year on their green. you know policy is now uh today saying he's not going to do it. well maybe he will, maybe he won't. you can't really trust him . him. >> um, em- mm.- >> um, okay. all right. now, i am fascinated by what your job is. okay. all right . it's fair is. okay. all right. it's fair to say the nation is as well. so, minister for common sense, it's not the official title. no, no . no. >> so the official title is minister in the cabinet office without portfolio. right. so this isn't a new job. it's been around since 1916. the cabinet office sort of started that. and the cabinet office , most people

the cabinet office, most people say is like the engine room of government. it's where the sort of the oversight, coordination of the oversight, coordination of policy is done. if government's got to deal with the crisis that's done, there and also efficiency savings reform, modernisation will be done there. and then things like looking at and overseeing all those arm's length bodies. so thatis those arm's length bodies. so that is the job. i don't have a portfolio, which means that i look across everybody's portfolio. so ken clarke had the job too. um, david cameron and peter mandelson had the job, what have you for? tony blair, who said it was the best job in government, what have you found you've curtain now? >> i mean, some things now? >> iare an, some things now? >> iare shocking. some things now? >> iare shocking. report things now? >> iare shocking. report 14 ngs that are shocking. report 14 months civil months ago we found civil service 1 million service was spending 1 million days collectively on days a year collectively on equality and diversity training. for example, a cost of £150 million to the british taxpayer to, uh, he brought in to stop this kind of stuff here. >> um, yeah. so the taxpayers are saying and i absolutely agree with them and i'm on their side, they're saying we don't want be paying for

want to be paying for these ballooning away days. these courses , spurious courses. what courses, spurious courses. what we want to do is to make sure you are doing the job at hand. we want to have a value for money, and we want to make sure there waste. so i'll there isn't any waste. so i'll give example. so you know give you an example. so you know , 308 arm's length bodies by the very of them. they're arm's very name of them. they're arm's length. but i'm written out to all of say customer all of them to say customer service. how you looking service. how are you looking after your customer? what are you doing? how quick is it to respond something? long respond to something? how long is you to actually is long do you take to actually reply and get a case reply to an issue and get a case sorted and the other thing i'm doing, i'm working and when i get that information back, i'll be dealing it. are they be dealing with it. are they doing the job hand? has it doing the job at hand? has it supped doing the job at hand? has it slipped in their service from 2018? bit by bit i will 2018? and bit by bit i will scrutinise work with it and 2018? and bit by bit i will scrtthem work with it and 2018? and bit by bit i will scrtthem to work with it and 2018? and bit by bit i will scrtthem to doyrk with it and 2018? and bit by bit i will scrtthem to do yrk witwork nd 2018? and bit by bit i will scrtthem to doyrk witwork at the get them to do some work at the same , councils , um, looking same time, councils, um, looking at what they're doing or what their equality, diversity, inclusion spend is, how many people they've got as equality, diversity inclusion diversity and inclusion champions. if they're asking the government for more money, if they're looking to put council

tax up. i'm now working with michael gove to say there must be conditions apply to that money that is going to them , and money that is going to them, and one of them is they've got to cut back on waste. eddy spend and days away from the office. so those are some of the implementations that will go with the money going there. so that's what i'm coming in. well that's what i'm coming in. well that's just the reality isn't it? you can't put up taxpayers bills . you can't be asking the bills. you can't be asking the government for more money. and yet not getting rid of wasteful spend yourself. and i think that is essential . so that's what i'm is essential. so that's what i'm doing. so i'd say that is come um, and i'm sure there will be. but in that regard we are handing over extra support as is the public. therefore, in return, what we'd expect is any form of waste, not doing your job at hand needs to go, because at the end of the day, you should be serving your taxpayers and that's what i'm doing. so i

call that common sense, and i'm quite happy to wear the mantle of sense. of common sense. >> week >> okay. yeah. and last week as well, the civil servants apparently taught that apparently being taught that rolling work rolling their eyes at work is a microaggression. this is this is why asking about why i was asking you about how it received. right? because it was received. right? because it's one thing saying, which i think certainly it's one thing saying, which i think this certainly it's one thing saying, which i think this andainly it's one thing saying, which i think this and listening watching this show and listening to with to this show will agree with you, these things you, for which is these things like equality and diversity, inclusion a complete inclusion training is a complete and utter waste of money in a lot of cases. if you're also lot of cases. but if you're also deaung lot of cases. but if you're also dealing with the kind of people who rolling their dealing with the kind of people who is rolling their dealing with the kind of people who is microaggression,r eyes is a microaggression, i mean, change mean, you've got to change it. you've to change whole you've got to change a whole attitude you've got to change a whole atti okay, well, i think as well, >> okay, well, i think as well, when have done well , i when people have done well, i think you've got to praise them as well. so working with the passport we're doing as well. so working with the passpibadly we're doing as well. so working with the passpibadly duringre doing as well. so working with the passpibadly during lockdown and really badly during lockdown and just after and actually now they've got people in, they've sorted out the backlog, they've got a new computer system in and they're doing really well. the dvla it dvla was exactly the same. it was on the naughty step. it got everybody in, all frontline staff, managers working together , getting those lists , etc. and getting those lists down. works, i will , etc. and getting those lists dotworking works, i will , etc. and getting those lists dotworking with works, i will , etc. and getting those lists dotworking with works, welll , etc. and getting those lists dotworking with works, well to be working with them as well to say did you work? um

say how did you make it work? um and i think you also have to look at the frontline staff who are servants actually are are civil servants actually are in time . it's are civil servants actually are in time. it's the sort in all the time. it's the sort of the managerial and the other job you're saying, hang on sec job you're saying, hang on a sec , job , can you really do that job from home? can you work from home? can you really work from home? can you really work from and then we've just from home? and then we've just pushed through. now, i'm not saying we've saying it's perfect, but we've now they've got to now got a 6,040. they've got to be in work for of time. be in work for 6% of the time. i'd like to see that go up, but i'd like to see that go up, but i can only do that when i've collected all that data to say, do know what we're doing do you know what we're doing better? country better? we've turned the country around because trust me, lockdown really did disrupt the work patterns of the nation. and i think we're slowly coming out of that. and i'm somebody who's sort of on the case and working with john glenn got the full backing of rishi sunak and oliver dowden , and working with oliver dowden, and working with kemi badenoch as well . kemi badenoch as well. >> and you are dealing with a group of civil servants who they were caught out listing. quotes, a change of government as one of their top wishes for 2024. i mean people that mean, this is the people that you've and get hold you've got to try and get hold of, isn't it? really? >> but look, you

>> i know, but look, you can't you them all, you know you can't dam them all, you know what i mean? there will be some that might it more that might find it more difficult , but the the difficult, but at the end of the day, what i say them, look, day, what i say to them, look, all's we've got to think about is who is paying our bills and who are we here to serve. and i'll tell you that is. that i'll tell you who that is. that is the taxpayer. that is the person at home right across the country. doesn't matter. country. so it doesn't matter. personality i don't country. so it doesn't matter. persotolity i don't country. so it doesn't matter. persoto know i don't country. so it doesn't matter. persoto know about i don't country. so it doesn't matter. persoto know about that.

not telling us the truth about how much they're putting how much money they're putting in there. and maybe ed and him have agreed have come to some sort of agreed point there and but i'd say about, um , keir starmer is about, um, keir starmer is making it up as he goes along. he's making it up as he goes along. he really just doesn't know what he's doing. and i think actually the public needs to scrutinise a lot more what labour stands for. i know what i stand i know what stand for, i know what the conservatives that's getting the economy doing economy right, which we're doing after lockdown. it's about getting immigration down. labour isn't they're going isn't doing that. they're going to more people coming in to have more people coming in and we're our and finally, we're proud of our country and we've got to for stand up great britain. having a great country, our history, our heritage and not dividing people as labour would do with culture wars and not standing up for great britain. well do you have bons great britain. well do you have boris back in cabinet? >> hahaha . >> hahaha. >> hahaha. >> i think boris is enjoying what doing don't >> i think boris is enjoying what borisioing don't >> i think boris is enjoying what boris wants don't >> i think boris is enjoying what boris wants to don't >> i think boris is enjoying what boris wants to , don't >> i think boris is enjoying what boris wants to , uh,i't >> i think boris is enjoying what boris wants to , uh, come think boris wants to, uh, come back, um, to , to cabinet. i've back, um, to, to cabinet. i've already said on the station i'd have had nigel farage in the lords, but i don't know . he lords, but i don't know. he wants to go back to frontline .

radio. >> i've got tomorrow's front pages here. hot off the press. the very first of them have just been delivered for my press pack . okay let's get the metro out of the way. absurd arena bomb denier. judge ridicules troll for fake atrocity claims. so it's a conspiracy theorist who claims that the manchester arena

bombing was faked, and he's been , uh, he's been thrown out by a judge. he's branded him absurd and fantastical. anyway uh, the i post office admits second it scandal may be linked to wrongful prosecutions. yeah honestly. so this broke initially last night. i think it appears it gets worse. so this could literally just be post office scandal mark two. so i mean, how many more of these, by the way? because the companies that make some of these systems are areas of society as are in other areas of society as well. the guardian, uh, furious starmer stages u—turn on £28 billion green investment. we've covered that a lot. the daily express unleashed pm vows to call out starmer's dirty tricks. the sun blew what after var farce ? we're now going to have farce? we're now going to have a blue card in football, but there is a story. yeah, no, there is a story that i've been teasing all evening and we are going to bnng evening and we are going to bring it to you now and here to do it, to reveal the scoop is scoop guitar . allison pearson scoop guitar. allison pearson from the daily telegraph. go on

then. >> i've been working on this all day, and then i've had to comb my hair and come and appear here. um yes. so, uh , vicar, here. um yes. so, uh, vicar, reverend matthew first got in touch with me. he had taken over a church. saint cuthbert's in darlington, up north in the northeast . and he got there and northeast. and he got there and he thought, hang on, a minute. there's a lot of adult baptisms going on in this church, and there's a long queue for them, and from there's a long queue for them, and middle from there's a long queue for them, and middle east from there's a long queue for them, and middle east who've from there's a long queue for them, and middle east who've had'om there's a long queue for them, and middle east who've had their the middle east who've had their first turned down first asylum claim turned down in the middle. the minute they get the asylum claim turned down, a down, they decide to become a christian patriot, because that counts appeal. counts in the next appeal. um, as with abdul ezedi, as we've seen with abdul ezedi, you know , if you can say you're you know, if you can say you're a christian, you're going to be persecuted when you go back to your um, your country of origin. so, um, what firth found was he what matthew firth found was he described a conveyor belt of baptisms with asylum seekers abusing the system. and matthew is a very good man. he's a man of god. and uh, baptism is a sacrament to people who believe in god. it's literally sacred . in god. it's literally sacred. it's to baptise someone who isn't in, you know, doesn't want

to come to christ. so it's a huge scandal. he thinks it's going on in most parishes in the country. we could be talking about thousands of asylum seekers basically taking the church of england for a ride and a couple of other things, matthew said. immigration lawyers. the minute these guys, this is big, can i just say this? >> this is a really big, big. come on. >> so the minute the guys were baptised, they baptised, he said, they practically had professional photographers taking pictures of practically had professional photo atiphers taking pictures of practically had professional photo at the rs taking pictures of practically had professional photo at the baptism pictures of practically had professional photo at the baptism ,)ictures of practically had professional photo at the baptism , put res of practically had professional photo at the baptism , put the of them at the baptism, put the pictures their facebook . pictures up on their facebook. i've converted, know, all i've converted, you know, all the all singing, all dancing. next day email comes from their immigration lawyer saying to matthew firth, vicar, can you please provide evidence of all the amazing christian work? you know, mr abdul does? he said, absolutely not, because he doesn't do it and it's not true . doesn't do it and it's not true. but that would terribly but that would be terribly helpful also muslim helpful. he also saw a muslim 9uy' helpful. he also saw a muslim guy, middle man church guy, a middle man in the church with pockets stuffed with with his pockets stuffed with money from these asylum seekers. the muslim man's coming up to the vicar at the door when he's

saying goodbye the saying goodbye to the parishioners and he's saying, um, uh , these need baptising, um, uh, these need baptising, these need baptising. he needs bapfised. these need baptising. he needs baptised . so it's an industrial baptised. so it's an industrial scale use of a church of england sacred ceremony to play the asylum system. and it's endorsed at a tacitly endorsed by the church of england hierarchy , who church of england hierarchy, who don't want to be called out , out don't want to be called out, out on it at all. and as well, sean, the next step in this must surely be to get in touch or find the firm , the, the legal find the firm, the, the legal firms involved in this and say , firms involved in this and say, hang on a minute. >> are you serious ? just trying >> are you serious? just trying to farm because they're obviously in on it if they're trying to if they're calling the vicar straight away. i mean, this it is a this is this is a it is a conveyor now this is conveyor belt. now this is absolutely outrageous . absolutely outrageous. >> i am so outraged about this that when i go back to lords that when i go back to the lords tomorrow morning, i'll go straight archbishop of straight up to the archbishop of canterbury ask what canterbury and ask him, what does he know about this? i will
