9:03 pm
intention for it to end up like this. i was absolutely , this. i was absolutely, absolutely convinced that the decision was done with the right intention . and i recognise and intention. and i recognise and i recognise the strength of feeling of members on this issue. >> lindsay hoyle, well, also in the news today , the labour the news today, the labour leader pressed the prime minister on allegations made by the business secretary that the former post office boss lied about a row over compensation to victims . victims. >> it comes after kemi badenoch accused henry staunton of spreading falsehoods after he said the government had deliberately delayed compensation payments. rishi sunak insisted he's standing by his business secretary pointing to the steps the government is taking to support victims of the scandal and post office his could disappear from some high streets as the government looks into cutting the network of so—called politically acceptable shops. the proposal was revealed in a memo produced by the former post office chairman henry
9:04 pm
staunton . the network of around staunton. the network of around 11,500 outlets has been maintained since the mid 2000, when the labour government pursued a controversial plan which saw the closure of 2500 outlets. the post office didn't say what a political acceptable number of outlets might be, but they said they're pleased numbers have remained stable in recent years. the government has declined to comment on that story for the very latest stories, do sign up for gb news alerts by scanning the qr code on your screen, or go to gb news. com slash alerts . mob rule news. com slash alerts. mob rule one today, bringing the clown a trapeze artist and fire someone out of a cannon. >> because our politics and the speaken >> because our politics and the speaker, sir lindsay hoyle, have turned britain into an absolute circus. it's a disgrace the government has boycotted voting on the gaza ceasefire debate . on the gaza ceasefire debate. the snp staged mass walkout the snp staged a mass walkout with the conservatives in tow and labour speaker lindsay hoyle has been forced into a grovelling apology after
9:05 pm
accusations that he'd pandered to the labour party and sue grey's wishes to keir grey's wishes to save keir starmer . starmer. >> can i just put that correct? i've never met with sue gray today. i didn't bump into her today. i didn't bump into her today. i'm offended by that comment. i think you'd like to withdraw it and i apologise . for withdraw it and i apologise. for for decision that didn't end up in the place that i wished for. >> well, you probably wondering how we all got here. well, mps were going to spend all day pointlessly arguing about a variation of the same thing a ceasefire, before conducting a series of pointless votes that will have no impact on either israel or hamas. but it was the speaker of the house of commons, sir lindsay hoyle , who stole the sir lindsay hoyle, who stole the show. hoyle, who reminded show. mr hoyle, who reminded everybody very much everybody that he is very much a labour mp, stands accused of colluding with his parliamentary party to help sir keir starmer depher lose a backbench and quite possibly shut a frontbench rebellion. he stepped in and saved mate so here's how it saved his mate so here's how it all breaks down. it was the snp who tabled the debate on a
9:06 pm
ceasefire in gaza . convention in ceasefire in gaza. convention in the house of commons dictates that mps vote on the snp's motion and then the government's amendment it. that meant keir amendment to it. that meant keir starmer bang in trouble. starmer was bang in trouble. total turmoil , rebellions, total turmoil, rebellions, resignations from the shadow frontbench, labour mps continuing to be hounded in the street . mr hoyle, though, had street. mr hoyle, though, had other ideas . other ideas. >> i think it's important on this occasion that the house is able to consider the widest possible range of options . i possible range of options. i have therefore decided to select the amendments both in the name of the prime minister and in the name of the leader of the opposition . so . an unprecedented opposition. so. an unprecedented intervention from the labour speaken intervention from the labour speaker, he added. >> a vote on the labour amendment and as a result, starmer spared from starmer was spared from a potential rebellion en masse. but worse . moments but it gets worse. moments later, bbc reporter nicholas watt said the message from senior labour sources was you will need our votes to be re—elected as speaker. after the
9:07 pm
election, labour has since denied this, but the clerk of the house of commons, tom goldsmith, wrote goldsmith, actually wrote a letter hoyle warning letter to lindsay hoyle warning that he was breaking with convention. and just hours ago, leader of the house penny mordaunt, in scathing address, mordaunt, in a scathing address, announced conservatives announced that the conservatives would have no involvement in this political circus. >> decision has raised >> this decision has raised temperatures in this house on an issue where feelings are already running high, and this has put honourable and right honourable members in a more difficult position . it also appears , from position. it also appears, from the advice of his clerk , that the advice of his clerk, that the advice of his clerk, that the decision is taken against the decision is taken against the long standing and established processes and procedures in this house. the government will play no further part in the decision this house takes on today's proceedings. mordaunt counterpart labour's lucy powell, got a bit desperate, shouting keep shouting, you just embarrassing yourselves. >> quite honestly , it's >> quite honestly, it's astonishing really , madam deputy astonishing really, madam deputy speaken astonishing really, madam deputy speaker, that the party opposite
9:08 pm
are now suddenly finding themselves standing in defence of the scottish nationalist party . party. >> well then labour mp chris bryant stood up to speak and everyone in the snp and the tories , and frankly, the public tories, and frankly, the public had had enough . had had enough. the premier mbappe the government embarrassing scraps . government embarrassing scraps. it's a complete joke, isn't it? this. and that's why the speaker eventually returned tonight. cap in hand. >> and i apologise , guys, for >> and i apologise, guys, for the decision that didn't end up in the place that i wished for. not good enough though, for a seething stephen flynn in the snp . snp. >> i'm afraid that that is treating myself and my colleagues in the scottish national party with complete and utter contempt , national party with complete and utter contempt, and i will take
9:09 pm
significant convincing that your position is not now intolerable. yes >> so there you have it . >> so there you have it. absolutely astonishing scenes. hoyle is deep in trouble. his job is hanging by a thread. and this whole sorry episode once again raises serious questions about an anti—conservative bias running through our political institutions. meanwhile you've got outside got protesters outside parliament, some of them spouting anti—semitic spouting borderline anti—semitic conspiracy theories. >> whole thing has been >> this whole thing has been orchestrated by israel in order to carry out genocide . died? to carry out genocide. died? yeah more of that later. >> by the way, i was out and about there yet again. our politicians have turned this country into a laughing stock. they are a complete shower and lindsay hoyle has to go. why did the speaker do such a massive favour for sir keir starmer? is there something sinister at play? it's outrageous . even if play? it's outrageous. even if we take him at face value that he was fearing for labour mps safety. that's the rumour doing the rounds he's fearing for the rounds now he's fearing for labour safety . then why not
9:10 pm
labour mps safety. then why not address there address the bigger issue? there is a violent, raging mob of people this who are people in this country who are now dictating the way this country governed, the country is governed, and the irony them were irony is that many of them were probably supporters probably labour supporters until october. it's absolutely ridiculous. i'm going to go to our political editor, christopher for latest christopher hope, for the latest analysis very analysis and reaction very shortly. now we go live to shortly. but now we go live to trafalgar square , where adam trafalgar square, where adam cherry joins us. adam, look, thank you very, very much. now, you were in westminster earlier today. you're now at trafalgar square. why are you there? and what's happening ? what's been happening? >> well, patrick, what's happenedin >> well, patrick, what's happened in the last hour or so is the main group from parliament square has dispersed and they're now, you see behind me these now the diehards on me these are now the diehards on trafalgar square chanting all the usual, usual hits. the greatest hits we've heard, uh, israel is a terrorist state. we've heard actually , one of the we've heard actually, one of the ones we just heard was rishi sunakis ones we just heard was rishi sunak is a wasteman. uh the usual routine . uh, i am usual routine. uh, i am surprised how quickly things have changed in the last hour. as you say, when you were there
9:11 pm
earlier, that i think was at its peak. it it was quite peak. it was it was quite hostile environment. there hostile environment, to hostile environment, so to speak, and colleague martin speak, and our colleague martin daubney was, was egged whilst he was standing there. now it's a little quieter , but i must little bit quieter, but i must say, patrick, also in the last few minutes since we have been standing we've no standing here, we've seen no less than three london bus drivers. bibbed their horns in support of this group and it's just extraordinary. these guys are taxpayer a paid for by the taxpayer. they work for tfl and yet they're supporting this incredibly hostile and incredibly hostile and incredibly political group . incredibly political group. >> all right look adam thank you very much. make sure you take care out there don't want you care out there i don't want you going the way as daubeny. care out there i don't want you goi was1e way as daubeny. care out there i don't want you goiwas quite way as daubeny. care out there i don't want you goiwas quite literallys daubeny. care out there i don't want you goi was quite literally been beny. care out there i don't want you goiwas quite literally been left 1. he was quite literally been left with egg on his face. unfortunately, as adam cherry, who's at trafalgar square who's out at trafalgar square for us, uh, was and about for us, uh, i was out and about earlier on today, uh, when things were a more things i think were a bit more heated. outside heated. it's fair to say outside westminster. i'll you what westminster. i'll bring you what happened there a little bit later show, but let's later on in the show, but let's go now to our political editor, christopher hope. and it's on days he earns his days like this that he earns his money. christopher, what the heck going . on? heck is going. on? >> well, briefly , patrick, today
9:12 pm
>> well, briefly, patrick, today is one of the days when the snp have control of the order paper. they have a debate on issues. they have a debate on issues. they want to have a debate on. they want to have a debate on. they plan today, one on gaza they plan two today, one on gaza and one on the £28 billion u—turn by the labour party on green spending. both issues were designed to cause difficulties for the labour party. don't forget, in scotland, the snp and labour are going for it. hammer and tongs for seats. the tories are distant third and that's what happened. but all went wrong when lindsay hoyle thought he'd try and allow labour labour mps to vote for an option that wasn't there. he changed the rules in a sense , like a referee rules in a sense, like a referee changing the laws of football moments before a game starts . moments before a game starts. and that prompted the snp and tories to walk off and to leave the future of lindsay hoyle. now hanging a thread. now he hanging by a thread. now he started at 7 pm, apologised , started at 7 pm, apologised, saying that wasn't enough for other mps and we'll see tomorrow how it plays out. but if you lose confidence of yourself in
9:13 pm
parliament then you don't last long here. 33 mps have signed a petition , a motion in parliament petition, a motion in parliament saying they haven't got confidence in lindsay hoyle. earlier, i spoke to john healey. he's the shadow defence secretary. but what on earth happened? here's what we had to say . what on earth has happened say. what on earth has happened in house of commons tonight ? in house of commons tonight? >> well, this was a day we could have shown the best of the british parliament coming together to demand a and end to the fighting now in gaza . much the fighting now in gaza. much more aid into gaza now , a more aid into gaza now, a release of the hostages now and a ceasefire that could be observed by both sides and build into a lasting peace instead, we've shown westminster at its worst , descending into row worst, descending into a row about procedure with the conservatives boycotting their own vote, the snp walking out on their own debate and this has done nothing to help the palestinian ions, and it's done nothing to advance the cause of peace. >> christopher, thank you very, very much. it's been great to have you right at the top of the show. might end going back
9:14 pm
show. we might end up going back to more drama unfolds. to you as more drama unfolds. that's our political editor, christopher hope, who's been doing look, going to go today. look, i'm going to go now today. look, i'm going to go now to philip, philip today. look, i'm going to go now to philip, thank'hilip today. look, i'm going to go now to philip, thank you» today. look, i'm going to go now to philip, thank you very davies. philip, thank you very much. so we understand it, 33 much. so as we understand it, 33 mps essentially signed mps have essentially signed a letter confidence in the letter of no confidence in the speaken letter of no confidence in the speaker. you one of them ? speaker. are you one of them? >> no i'm not. no, i'm not. i don't think that lindsay hoyle should go as speaker. i think he made a bad decision today. i think he made an unjustifiable decision. i mean, i think as chris hope basically said there, he, uh , he decided to change the he, uh, he decided to change the rules because he didn't think the rules were the right rules . the rules were the right rules. uh, you and it's like uh, you know, and it's like a judge agree with judge saying, i don't agree with this so i'm not this particular law. so i'm not going it. the speaker's going to apply it. the speaker's there apply the rules as they there to apply the rules as they are, whether likes them or are, whether he likes them or not. and, and today he decided to now whether it to change them. now whether it was for the right reasons, the wrong reasons. i look, i've known speaker for many, many known the speaker for many, many years. him a decent, years. i find him a decent, honourable person. um, he's made a mistake here. if everybody who made a mistake in parliament lost their job as a result of
9:15 pm
it, i'd have probably gone 19 years ago. patrick so i'm not going to be. i'm not going to rush to judgement on people. i think he's made a mistake. he came to the house and apologised, very , very apologised, which is very, very big of him. to have done that actually, know, not many actually, you know, not many people that people would have done that and a was a bad day, a lot. i think it was a bad day, just. >> philip, i just ask? >> philip, can i just ask? i obviously most people would absolutely what absolutely respect what you've said know, you're an said there. you know, you're an honourable guy and all that honourable guy and all of that stuff. is real stuff. but what is the real reason he's it? you reason why he's done it? do you think? do you think that think? do you think it's that he caved pressure from labour think? do you think it's that he cavewanted pressure from labour think? do you think it's that he cavewanted preprop�* from labour think? do you think it's that he cavewanted preprop�* fro mate our think? do you think it's that he cavewanted preprop�* fro mate up, and wanted to prop his mate up, or he was genuinely and wanted to prop his mate up, or that, he was genuinely and wanted to prop his mate up, or that, you he was genuinely and wanted to prop his mate up, or that, you know,; genuinely and wanted to prop his mate up, or that, you know, labour1ely afraid that, you know, labour mps attacked mps might get attacked in the streets? one i streets? i mean, either one i would is pretty bad. would say is pretty bad. >> i mean, i think >> and yeah, i mean, i think labour did try and put intolerable the intolerable pressure on the speaker one way or another. i mean, there was a rumour earlier that that nicholas watts from bbc a labour, bbc newsnight, he said a labour, a labour minister, a shadow minister, had said to him that they told lindsay hoyle that if he didn't agree to their motion, they'd as speaker. he didn't agree to their motion, they'4the as speaker. he didn't agree to their motion, they'4the election. as speaker. he didn't agree to their motion, they'4the election. as sthat's. after the election. now that's been the labour been denied by both the labour party and the speaker's party and by the speaker's office. got to take office. so we've got to take that , uh, at value.
9:16 pm
office. so we've got to take that, uh, at value. but that, uh, at face value. but i have heard from other labour mps in the division lobby earlier that, um, they were basically saying to the speaker that if he didn't allow the motion, then labour mps would be subject to abuse, intimidation , their abuse, intimidation, their security would be at risk. and the speaker has been very big on on mp security and very concerned about it. and so it's, you know , has that played a part you know, has that played a part in the decision? i genuinely don't know, patrick. i mean i hope that's mob rule hope not because that's mob rule . it's mob rule. exactly. if we if we end up having decisions made in parliament or, or we have mps voting in parliament, not for what they believe in, but in order to appease the mob, then haven't democracy then we haven't got a democracy left and would be left and that would be intolerable . but whatever the intolerable. but whatever the reason patrick, made reason was patrick, he made a mistake . i think he now accepts mistake. i think he now accepts he made a mistake. mistake. i think he now accepts he made a mistake . and i think, he made a mistake. and i think, you on that we you know, on that basis, we should should on. should we should move on. >> look , thank you very, >> philip, look, thank you very, very much. philip davies there. look, reason why i've look, i'm the reason why i've been twitchy, though, is i've been so twitchy, though, is i've been so twitchy, though, is i've been updates been getting running updates in my people my ears to the number of people who this.
9:17 pm
who have now signed this. apparently, up to it was apparently, we're up to it was 37. now it's 38. people all said that they have no confidence in lindsay so those lindsay hoyle. so look, those numbers course, numbers are rising. of course, i think saying as think i'm right in saying as well, to my on well, i'll go to my panel on this that when well, i'll go to my panel on this went, that when well, i'll go to my panel on this went, i that when well, i'll go to my panel on this went, i thinkt when well, i'll go to my panel on this went, i thinkt vwas up bercow went, i think it was up to there is a precedent to 22. so there is a precedent here. get the thoughts of here. let's get the thoughts of my panel. its senior political correspondent my panel. its senior political correspo christian corgi . i've express, christian corgi. i've got businessman activist got businessman and activist adam well i, adam brooks and also as well i, of course, have author and journalist rebecca reid, christian corgi, lindsay hoyle got go . got to go. >> um, it's up to mps, frankly, it's do they have confidence in him or not? and it might sound an obvious thing. i would say. also, the snp as a party not supporting him is very significant. right. because they're the third largest party. and if their leader isn't supporting lindsay hoyle then that's that's more significant than a large number of tory backbenchers . um, yeah, exactly . backbenchers. um, yeah, exactly. so we will have to see whether this fizzles out tomorrow or whether it continues ramping up. but it's certainly not the last. >> bercow won't after 22.
9:18 pm
>> bercow won't after 22. >> it was my it was michael martin who was the who was the speaker expenses speaker during the expenses scandal in 2009. and 22 mps signed an edm against him and he quit the next day. there we go. >> right. okay. thank you. i stand corrected on that. adam, have a rule have we given it a mob rule here? yes i believe so. >> to me it looks like labour. it's my opinion that labour have bullied him into this decision. um keir starmer has been let off an embarrassing rebellion from his own party, which would have torn labour apart. um, i think the speaker has embarrassed the uk parliament. he has made a mistake. he has apologised . but mistake. he has apologised. but i believe so much damage has been done to parliament and to our democracy . he he has to go. our democracy. he he has to go. um hum. um, it's worrying. it's worrying. the state of uk politics at the moment is dire . politics at the moment is dire. >> the reason i'm just checking my phone is i have just had a message a tory mp who message from a tory mp who i will not name, who said that the. well, yeah, he's basically teeing off as we speak now on keir starmer. and in particular
9:19 pm
lindsay hoyle piling political pressure on lindsay hoyle , pressure on lindsay hoyle, raising pointless points of order. uh, yeah. he's just order. uh, yeah. he'sjust absolutely incensed about what's happening here. i mean, i'm sorry, rebecca, but is this not just an insight into what a labour government might look like into rule , like caving into mob rule, piling on a labour piling pressure on a labour speaker? potentially. although it's been denied, threatening to depher rock him at the next election if he doesn't give in to this. meanwhile, we don't have ceasefire all. we have a ceasefire at all. do we have a ceasefire at all. do we have anything that looks like a ceasefire? people are still dying. >> don't it has any real >> i don't think it has any real predictive about a predictive value about what a labour would labour government would look like. is a very like. i do think it is a very sad indictment how sad indictment of how much infighting personal politics infighting and personal politics and people's own reputations have become the that have become the thing that they care looked at that have become the thing that they care full looked at that have become the thing that they care full people oked at that have become the thing that they care full people with at that room full of people with comfortable houses and comfortable houses and comfortable lives, all acting as a terrible happened to them. while be a terrible happened to them. whiletalking be a terrible happened to them. whiletalking about be a terrible happened to them. whiletalking about childrene there talking about children dying . and i just thought, dying. and i just thought, you're all silly, and hate you're all silly, and i hate all of um, mean , that's >> today. i, um, i mean, that's strong. i agree with you. i agree with you because i think, you know, any semblance that that vote anyway. and it was
9:20 pm
kind of people's front of judea territory, wasn't it, really? because the tories wanted some form of ceasefire. the snp wanted different form wanted a slightly different form of then labour of ceasefire. and then labour felt come up felt like they had to come up with different ceasefire in with a different ceasefire in order make it look like they order to make it look like they weren't given. that make you hate of them. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> and then they walk out because of speaker. it's because of the speaker. it's a complete just by the complete circus. and just by the way, about way, we're talking about mob rule, daubney rule, here's martin daubney being . being egged. >> brazier . >> brazier. >> brazier. >> oh, grief . >> oh, grief. >> oh, grief. >> uh, christian, uh, it's very important to remember that after all the heat and the shouting, what we saw today was three different parties playing irrelevant party political games to try and score cheap points against each other. you know, the snp wanting to debate a motion that would have made no difference to the conflict, to embarrass labour. you had a tory party put down a motion to party that put down a motion to try and embarrass labour, and you keir starmer you had sir keir starmer desperately , desperately trying
9:21 pm
desperately, desperately trying to avoid up to 100 rebelling to avoid up to 100 mps rebelling and frontbench and further frontbench resignations. in doing so, resignations. and in doing so, bent the arm of lindsay hoyle. now i put, i put to you this lindsay hoyle was weak today and that's that's not a good thing. but ultimately it was labour and keir starmer that bullied him into doing this. right. either they said they used the excuse of we'll get threatened and abused by, by the way, the same people that used to be supporting them or they supported entering the country over the last decade . uh, or over the last decade. uh, or they said, you know, at the next election will will get rid of you because i think ultimately labour claim they play labour loved to claim they play by but if the rules by the rules. but if the rules aren't ones that agree with them, will the rules i >> -- >> oh, i'm exam >> oh, i'm just having something in my ear. apparently. one the guardian reporting that 100 guardian is reporting that 100 labour mps were ready to rebel today. apparently, and lindsay hoyle, lindsay hoyle is basically saved keir starmer from that. >> that makes it even worse. you know what mps have got to realise is we pay their wages,
9:22 pm
they're there to represent us. it doesn't matter if they're blue, yellow or what party blue, red, yellow or what party they are. we pay their wages, we pay they are. we pay their wages, we pay speaker's wages. they've pay the speaker's wages. they've got up and start got to grow up and start representing us. this is a joke. >> think that's i think that's >> i think that's i think that's their lot of their problem, is that a lot of them representing them are representing a constituency feel constituency where they feel very that a ceasefire very strongly that a ceasefire must so they're trying must happen. so they're trying to represent us. they're trying to represent us. they're trying to jobs. and they were to do their jobs. and they were in themselves. >> tried to get the >> labour tried to get the muslim vote back. that's what they've tried do. they've tried to do. >> very broad brush >> a very, very broad brush stroke of saying stroke way of saying it. and i think to suggest that all muslims think one is fairly. muslims think one way is fairly. >> that, rebecca, >> i didn't say that, rebecca, but lot of muslim but they've lost a lot of muslim votes. they're trying to get them i don't they them back. i don't think they have it's i think it's >> i think it's i think it's going tricky going to be an incredibly tricky situation forward. right. situation going forward. right. look, still come for our look, still to come for our deputy chair of the tory party, leander sun was inside the commons. he is one of these people who has signed a letter of no confidence essentially in the speaker. so are we talking to all about that? but up to him all about that? but up next it's our head to head. has the party let itself down
9:23 pm
the labour party let itself down today after conjuring a political circus over the old gaza debate , i'm going gaza ceasefire debate, i'm going to by former labour to be joined by former labour minister rammell and former minister bill rammell and former labour williamson , who labour mp chris williamson, who i'll also be asking about. obviously, the speaker, lindsay hall's unprecedented actions because have been somewhat hall's unprecedented actions because by|ave been somewhat hall's unprecedented actions because by events an somewhat hall's unprecedented actions because by eventsan sonwas|at overtaken by events and i was outside earlier on, outside parliament earlier on, and i'll be showing you exactly what kind of stuff people were saying. it's to not be missed. patrick on patrick christys tonight only on gb news

news. >> welcome back . the latest, as >> welcome back. the latest, as i understand it is there are now 38 letters of no confidence in lindsay hoyle and apparently 100 labour mps were about to rebel before he steps in and saved his mate from the chopping block. but it is time now for our head to head. well he's not nicknamed sir flip flop for nothing , is sir flip flop for nothing, is he? having refused to call for a ceasefire in gaza over recent months. so pulling a screechy u—turn after screeching u—turn as he scrambled to salvage labour's traditional muslim vote, sir keir starmer avoided a major rebellion over the issue in parliament today , thanks to in parliament today, thanks to the unprecedented behaviour of commons speaker lindsay hoyle. so look, forget the £28 billion green pledge. his support of jeremy corbyn, his hokey cokey with brexit. critics reckon that starmer's latest flip flop could be a defining one. so look, tonight i am asking , be a defining one. so look, tonight i am asking, has sir keir starmer's weak leadership now been exposed by the gaza
9:28 pm
ceasefire crisis ? doing battle ceasefire crisis? doing battle on this is former labour minister for the middle east. so you know absolutely man in the know bill rammell and former labour mp chris williamson, both of you. can i just say thank you very, very much. really very, very much. i am really looking to this. uh, looking forward to this. uh, chris williamson, to chris williamson, i will go to you been you first. has starmer been exposed over his position on gaza? think ? gaza? do you think? >> he's made his position >> well, he's made his position pretty clear, i think in that he said that he's a zionist without qualification. >> so he's bent over backwards . >> so he's bent over backwards. it seems to me to, um, you know, facilitate the israel lobby in this country. and has whipped his mps , uh, to not support the his mps, uh, to not support the palestinian people and to not support an end to these appalling scenes that we've witnessed on our television screens and on our smartphones. i mean , it's shocking state of i mean, it's shocking state of affairs as a as a genocide as we know , taking place in gaza. know, taking place in gaza. >> right now. and, you know , >> right now. and, you know, starmer has been left wanting, but certainly i think, uh, these parliamentary parlour games this evening have have shown him up
9:29 pm
as, as, as in many ways a very weak leader. i agree because he, he, you know , he didn't want to he, you know, he didn't want to face the, the prospect of , of face the, the prospect of, of a major, uh , uh, challenge to his major, uh, uh, challenge to his leadership in, you know, 100. i think you were reporting 100 mps potentially rebelling . potentially rebelling. >> all right, chris, i'll come back to you. um, yeah. that is the line that is just landing now, which apparently about now, which is apparently about 100 about to 100 labour mps were about to rebel. i mean, it's absolutely massive the labour leader. rebel. i mean, it's absolutely mtrue,e the labour leader. rebel. i mean, it's absolutely mtrue, bill,the labour leader. rebel. i mean, it's absolutely mtrue, bill, i'll labour leader. rebel. i mean, it's absolutely mtrue, bill, i'll labouyouader. rebel. i mean, it's absolutely mtrue, bill, i'll labouyou iner. if true, bill, i'll bring you in there. some strong there. look, some strong allegations there chris allegations there from chris about essentially about keir starmer essentially being but also if being a zionist. um, but also if and keir starmer was trying and if keir starmer was trying to ear to bend lindsay hoyle's ear and say, do you understand if say, look, do you understand if we amendment we don't get this amendment tonight, going to be tonight, there's going to be trouble. my mps are to get trouble. my mps are going to get an kicking. hang trouble. my mps are going to get an a kicking. hang trouble. my mps are going to get an a minute.:icking. hang trouble. my mps are going to get an a minute. hasn't hang trouble. my mps are going to get an a minute. hasn't caused] on a minute. hasn't he caused that on a minute. hasn't he caused tha look , conversations take >> look, conversations take place between frontbenchers , place between frontbenchers, leaders of parties and the speaker of the house of commons every of the week. every day of the week. >> and it's legitimate to press for a vote on the labour amendment. but keir hasn't been
9:30 pm
remotely weak . he's been remotely weak. he's been ruthless in tackling anti—semitism throughout the gaza conflict. he's made clear the labour party's support for israel, its support for its right to self defence. but concern about the plight of palestinian civilians and, yes, the labour party. and you talk about flip flop, i think i think that's a million miles wide of the mark. labour party's the mark. the labour party's position evolved on the position has evolved on the conflict, just as the position of australia, canada and new zealand, the united states. >> can i ask you this then, bill and i just i seriously just just and ijust i seriously just just i'm sorry to interrupt, but i think this is important. if you're position you're saying their position has evolved. at evolved. bill on this i was at those protests tonight and i've got to ask you a question that those protests tonight and i've got topeopleu a question that those protests tonight and i've got to people are question that those protests tonight and i've got topeople are putting] that those protests tonight and i've got to people are putting t01at those protests tonight and i've got topeople are putting to me . those people are putting to me. if thinks that the if he now thinks that the fighting needs to what was fighting needs to stop, what was the exact number of lost the exact number of lives lost that was that target for that that was that target for him before he reached him before he before he reached that conclusion? then bill, i think what has persuaded keir , think what has persuaded keir, what's persuaded the americans , what's persuaded the americans, what's persuaded the americans, what's persuaded the americans, what's persuaded our own government to speak out about
9:31 pm
the need for a ceasefire is the fact that, frankly, the israeli government has not been listening to its friends and allies about the conduct of the conflict. >> and that's why the labour party put down the amendment that it did today, which made clear our support for a humanity humanitarian ceasefire. but made clear it had to be genuine on both sides so that hamas had to stand and that a two state solution had to be a contributor to the peace process and not an outcome of the peace process. >> okay, chris, i'll throw it back to you. i saw you shaking your head a bit there when bill mentioned anti—semitism and keir starmer rooting that of the starmer rooting that out of the party. look, i don't mean to rake up the dead or anything. i know that you have been accused of some freaky of having some pretty freaky views time, okay? which views in your time, okay? which no disagree with no doubt you will disagree with that the that accusation. but is the accusation do you think that maybe keir starmer is having to give in to people with quite extreme as and, and that extreme views as and, and that maybe you guys are part of the problem? dare i say, chris? go
9:32 pm
on. well i don't think there's anything extreme about opposing war and about opposing a genocide and the weaponization of anti—semitism. >> been absolutely shamed . look, >> been absolutely shamed. look, there is no crisis of anti—semitism in this country. i mean, many of the accusations of anti—semitism relate to people supporting palestine and chanting slogans like from the we've seen a massive increase in anti—semitism . um, but why are anti—semitism. um, but why are those statistics coming from though they're coming from organisations like the community security is security trust, which is adjacent also the police adjacent to the also the police regime, very close to the israeli security services and the sort of statistic that they are using is the number of demonstrations of people who are coming out in their tens of thousands, indeed millions to support 589% increase in october 7 in anti—semitism. >> chris, 589% increase. you can't sweep that under the carpet . carpet. >> history didn't begin on october 7. let's remember that israel was born out of terrorism i >> -- >> it was born in 1948. by
9:33 pm
expelling three quarters of a million palestinian people, they've imposed a apartheid system. they've then expanded, still further. they are illegally occupying large swathes of palestine since 1967. we're seeing massacre after massacre, uh, that has been inflicted by israel against the palestinian people. >> inevitably , there's going to >> inevitably, there's going to be a response to that . be a response to that. >> and let's just one final point. just at this point, look, you know, the right to armed resistance is enshrined in international law . uh, palestine international law. uh, palestine is an occupied country occupied by israel , is an occupied country occupied by israel, and apartheid needs to be brought down, right? >> bill, bill, bill, i'll let you bill, i'll let you come back to all of that. but i do have to make the point, bill, that actually it's views like that that the today, that have won the day today, isn't ? isn't it? >> uh, no, i don't think they have. and in case, patrick, your viewers aren't aware that chris was expelled from the labour party believe it or not, party by, believe it or not, jeremy corbyn he was too jeremy corbyn because he was too extreme even for corbyn. uh he's
9:34 pm
also had his , uh, former mps also had his, uh, former mps pass revoked because he was association with iranian government backed tv and his support for iran. and i think his his denial of the huge danger and threat of anti—semitism in this country is shocking . we have changed the shocking. we have changed the labour party. keir has changed the labour party by ruthlessly tackling anti—semitism. that was the right thing to do and people like chris have been expelled from the labour party as a result. right. >> bill? bill, finally on this now , if it turns out that keir now, if it turns out that keir starmer has or through sue gray or otherwise has leant on lindsay hoyle today to get that breach of convention, something has to be done about that bill. now >> yeah, but there's no evidence whatsoever that that's what happened. whatsoever that that's what happened . you know, uh, lindsay happened. you know, uh, lindsay hoyle , when he made his hoyle, when he made his statement, said that the existing practice where you couldn't have three resolutions put forward was outdated. and i
9:35 pm
think that was the right view. the snp has weaponized this issue , as it always does. and issue, as it always does. and i also think there are serious questions for the tory party. they withdrew their amendment. had they not done so, they would have been a vote on the snp. uh, resolution. so, you know, i think i think there's serious questions for the tory party and the snp. >> okay. look both of you. thank you. we could have done this all night actually, obviously. but apologies are we are banging apologies we are we are banging up evening. up against it this evening. i hope understand. hope you both understand. thank you that is you very, very much. that is former mp chris former labour mp chris williamson. and that is williamson. there and that is former the former labour minister for the middle east. bill rammell, who obviously radically obviously have radically different say different views on this, to say the and do you agree the least. and who do you agree with keir starmer's weak with as sir keir starmer's weak leadership . and exposed by the leadership. and exposed by the gaza ceasefire crisis, nick on act says it was weak leadership even before the ceasefire crisis . william says not if it . william says not sure if it exposes weak leadership, but it certainly exposed who will be pandenng certainly exposed who will be pandering to he's in number pandering to when he's in number 10. massive problem. exactly
9:36 pm
that. 10. massive problem. exactly that . i just 10. massive problem. exactly that. i just just say that, didn't i? that whose views have won the day to day, jim says starmer played this very well and has avoided all that. was he being about him tomorrow? if being about him tomorrow? uh, if the tories snp hadn't the tories and the snp hadn't stormed could had the tories and the snp hadn't stvoteed could had the tories and the snp hadn't stvote today. could had the tories and the snp hadn't stvote today. i could had the tories and the snp hadn't stvote today. i supposei had the tories and the snp hadn't stvote today. i suppose there had the tories and the snp hadn't stvote today. i suppose there isad a vote today. i suppose there is that, isn't there? look, 91% of you sir keir you think that sir keir starmer's weak leadership has been exposed by the gaza ceasefire. 9% of you say it hasn't. um, i've a tweet ceasefire. 9% of you say it hasn from n, i've a tweet ceasefire. 9% of you say it hasnfrom chrise a tweet ceasefire. 9% of you say it hasn from chris williamson, here from chris williamson, apparently. uh, williamson tweeted um , tweeted every labour mp um, contributing hashtag gaza contributing to the hashtag gaza ceasefire debate in the house of commons this afternoon is reinforcing , uh, why it's . reinforcing, uh, why it's. essentially hasn't happened. anyway, someone's moved that in my otoki. so thank very much my otoki. so thank you very much for whoever that. but there for whoever did that. but there we after we go. coming up after kemi badenoch the badenoch waded into the political post office political row over post office compensation labour's political row over post office com starmer�*n labour's political row over post office com starmer�*n the labour's political row over post office com starmer�*n the primerr's keir starmer grilled the prime minister issue earlier minister on the issue earlier today. >> this had once accused by the post office of owing more than £80,000. >> he said this this late yesterday there is a lack of transparency . transparency. >> yeah. so look the man referenced there in the post

10:09 pm
it here. how are they going to give it to palestine? >> did me his view. >> yes, he did give me his view. in the end, though, it was a heck more of that as heck of a lot more of that as well, we'll putting well, which we'll be putting out on later it's on social media later on. it's a sad indictment of the state of this country speaker this country that the speaker of the is having the house of commons is having to make decisions out of fear yet again, we won't address the main issue, will we? we will blame it on everything else . we blame it on everything else. we now have mob rule in britain today, some whom are today, some of whom are convinced that there was some kind of conspiracy theory taking place that israel could go on place so that israel could go on and a mass of and commit a mass acts of genocide they're absolutely and commit a mass acts of gen(toie they're absolutely and commit a mass acts of gen(to say they're absolutely and commit a mass acts of gen(to say thatthey're absolutely and commit a mass acts of gen(to say that from �*e absolutely and commit a mass acts of gen(to say that from a absolutely and commit a mass acts of gen(to say that from a group|tely and commit a mass acts of gen(to say that from a group of.y fine to say that from a group of people don't with people who don't disagree with them. parliament fell to the them. our parliament fell to the mob and this will get mob today, and this will get worse better. worse before it gets better. extremists have won. let's get the of my panel. i've the thoughts of my panel. i've got senior political correspondent , the daily correspondent, the daily express, i have express, christian corgi. i have got businessman and activist adam brooks. and of course, i do have author and journalist rebecca reid, chris. yeah, mob rule today , surely. i mean, you rule today, surely. i mean, you look at the way that people are able to spout a load of conspiracy theory tosh there. and you think that's what
10:10 pm
and you think if that's what lindsay scared of lindsay hoyle was scared of happening labour offices, happening at labour mps offices, why address the real problem? >> well, exactly. and think >> well, exactly. and i think it's uh, issue with it's a chronic, uh, issue with the way a lot on the left the way that a lot on the left and on the liberal left and a lot on the liberal left that, uh, deal with politics these days. they love to deal with the symptom and not the cause. with the symptom and not the cause . right. so they would cause. right. so they would rather protect themselves from the mob whilst actually refusing to ask whether the mob should be allowed to run rampant. i mean, just to expand it out. i think a very other a good other comparison. right is whenever there's an attack against mps, as we've seen a couple over the last half a decade , they'll talk last half a decade, they'll talk about anything other than the ideology that caused it. they'll talk about abuse on social media, they'll talk about whether we should ban end to end whatsapp messaging, encryption on. they won't talk about islamist extremism. and we've seen the same thing to date. they will not address the root cause because many of them supported the policies that created. >> but let's be very let's be
10:11 pm
very clear that of the mps who have lost their lives, all have lost their lives, not all of lost to people who of them lost them to people who were islamic, particularly in the it's really the case of jo cox. it's really important don't just important that we don't just rewrite . there evil rewrite history. there are evil people done evil people who have done evil things, have different things, but they have different political there are. >> but let's also remember that out of the 44,000, i think it is on the terrorist watch list in this country. 90% of them are islamist terrorist , subsub, uh, islamist terrorist, subsub, uh, suspects . so there is a real suspects. so there is a real problem with islamist terrorism in this country for a second that there isn't. >> but i think it's really important that we're accurate when talk it. important that we're accurate wh
10:12 pm
or have done , uh, in recent or have done, uh, in recent years. >> you know, this is this is scary mob rule , you know, protest. >> adam, you're not scared of that. don't be ridiculous. you're a grown up. >> well, mps were none of you. >> well, mps were none of you. >> and, uh, if it's outside . no, >> and, uh, if it's outside. no, sorry. you're really saying sorry. you're not really saying those interviewed you those people you interviewed you think frightening . those think are frightening. those people spoke to, you think are frightening. those peoplwere spoke to, you think are frightening. those peoplwere frightening. to, you think were frightening. >> wasn't just. >> well, it wasn't just. >> well, it wasn't just. >> it's not just the ones who we just watched. you think they're scary. >> so. no no. so i'm not going to here and say that. to sit here and say that. oh, i was absolutely quaking in my boots by a load people. boots by a load of people. we have lot more have got a heck of a lot more footage that can't play, and footage that we can't play, and next time to of these next time i go to one of these protests, you with me protests, i'll bring you with me if you want. yeah. and you can see what happens. then. we'll see. i've been to them. >> i don't think they're scary. >> i don't think they're scary. >> act right. one >> presenter was act right. one of co colleagues i of your co colleagues was was i think he'll survive it. there were when i think were 40 when i counted. i think there about 40 police there were about 40 police officers outside officers stood outside the entrance from entrance to parliament from midday normal. midday. that's not normal. >> more be more >> i'd be more i'd be more nervous i would nervous of them than i would of the well bizarre. the protesters. well bizarre. >> the met were clearly very concerned and it's not just those, it's online abuse. it's
10:13 pm
all sort of other threats. you know, once about, you know, once every few months we all see this panic. those who work in panic. those of us who work in parliament because someone's sent package that sent a suspicious package that might be anthrax, right? it's not just the people on the street. often anthrax? street. how often is it anthrax? >> we've got to remember >> i think we've got to remember that on october 7, innocent jews and innocent muslims were slaughtered by hamas, a terrorist group. now this, you know, a response has happened by israel, and people are dying, but nothing that happens in our parliament is going to change or stop this. at the moment. so it's a waste of time and it's causing unrest. do you not think we have any influence at all in what happens as a country? our parliament has no influence on on pressuring a ceasefire >> you don't think that we have any political? not in other countries. >> let's let's part that because i'm going to come back to that exact because exact issue in a moment, because i think a growing issue i think that is a growing issue now in the british now with people in the british pubuc now with people in the british public thinking, public who are thinking, look, why mean, there's even
10:14 pm
why honour? i mean, there's even calls general election calls to have a general election on we could on this. so potentially we could have election in have a general election in court. we're not actually going to. it cool, have to. but if it was cool, we have a election called on a a general election called on a foreign issue, an issue foreign policy issue, an issue of trying to influence the israelis and hamas, which is an issue which exists because of what it up. what we did in setting it up. >> we have been >> right. we have been instrumental back the beginning. >> i will come back to it. >> okay. i will come back to it. john now shadow defence john healy now shadow defence secretary, spoke to our political christopher political editor, christopher hope, he hope, earlier. here's what he had say . had to say. >> john healy, on earth has >> john healy, what on earth has happenedin >> john healy, what on earth has happened in house of commons tonight? >> well, this was a day we could have shown the best of the british parliament coming together to demand a and end to the fighting. now in gaza. much more aid into gaza now, a release of the hostages now, and a ceasefire that could be observed by both sides and build into a lasting peace. instead, we've shown westminster at its worst, into a row worst, descending into a row about procedure , with the about procedure, with the conservatives boycotting their own vote. the snp walking out on their own debate . and this has their own debate. and this has
10:15 pm
done nothing to help the palestinians. and it's done nothing to advance the cause of peace. >> you could say the snp started it by having a debate on their time on a motion on gaza, which they knew labour mps couldn't support, but do you blame the speaker of the house of commons for stepping in and offering this third way to use that a line from history? this line from labour history? this way of allowing labour mps to support motion which support a different motion which broke recent precedent. broke with recent precedent. >> applaud the speaker for >> i applaud the speaker for that. the speaker is there to protect the rights of all mps in the house of commons, and he was trying to ensure the widest possible knows possible debate. he knows this debate matters to parliament. it matters to our communities and it matters beyond britain, to countries the world, countries around the world, including in the middle east and so he was doing his job. rees—mogg has said , reflecting rees—mogg has said, reflecting the will of the house of commons. in doing so , i ask john commons. in doing so, i ask john healey their shadow defence secretary. >> let's just have it right . the >> let's just have it right. the labour speaker decided to step in today when an unprecedented move and save the labour party
10:16 pm
leader from a potential 100 mp strong rebellion . okay, that's strong rebellion. okay, that's what happened and his excuse for doing that was because of, oh, he's worried about the safety of labour mps. the irony, of course, being that the people who are doing most of the threatening, one would imagine, probably used to vote labour until october. the seventh happened anyway, which is absolutely remarkable. and christine, i'm going to go to you first on this and just ask that were making that point that we were making before whether or not we before about whether or not we are now devoting too much time , are now devoting too much time, time as country to an issue time as a country to an issue that's taking place the that's taking place in the middle meanwhile we have middle east. meanwhile we have massive here. do you massive problems here. do you hold any sway for you ? hold any sway for you? >> um, yes , i think i think >> um, yes, i think i think that's fair. i completely understand why people are incensed. right. and let's let's be very clear that there are millions of very, very decent , millions of very, very decent, honourable people in this country whose hearts break when they see what's happening in gaza, so . but then, gaza, and rightly so. but then, you know, this is a very difficult debate, and you've also got to consider what
10:17 pm
ultimately was the difference between the snp motion and the government position. well, it's the snp want a ceasefire and the government going well. hang on. you can call a ceasefire, you can israel lay their can get israel to lay down their arms. remember the last arms. but i remember the last time a humanitarian time there was a humanitarian pause. time there was a humanitarian pause . it israel that pause. it wasn't israel that restarted fighting was restarted the fighting, it was hamas. continued hamas. when they continued firing into israel. and hamas. when they continued firingwill into israel. and hamas. when they continued firingwill happen) israel. and hamas. when they continued firingwill happen allrael. and hamas. when they continued firingwill happen all overand hamas. when they continued firingwill happen all over again . that will happen all over again. if we wish a ceasefire into existence. >> imagine our mps who we actually pay and fund, spent a whole day trying to sort out poverty in this country, trying to sort out the nhs waiting list, trying to sort out all the problems in immigration. you know, that that are affecting costing taxpayers money rather than something we cannot change. we cannot influence . it's absurd i >> -- >> go on. »- >> go on. >> rebecca, i think there are probably quite a lot of people who are putting their backs behind trying to sort out poverty waiting list poverty and the nhs waiting list because win because it would help them win an . let's put more an election. let's put more time into don't think you into it so you don't think you don't that any of don't think that any of the conservative are conservative government are trying living

10:24 pm
they're being converted by developers into what called developers into what are called hmos . so houses of multiple hmos. so houses of multiple occupation , where a traditional occupation, where a traditional three bed house will apparently be torn apart and turned into a six bedroom house. so the hmos will house around 40 migrants from overseas , with developers from overseas, with developers boasting of up to 15% annual returns on their investment and guaranteed rents from the government that we have just purchased at this mid—terraced house in cumbria , which we are house in cumbria, which we are going to convert into a six bedroom social hall, hmo . bedroom social hall, hmo. >> whilst this property is ready, you're going to receive a long lease with guaranteed income . no maintenance and no income. no maintenance and no voids . voids. >> well, millom locals have launched a campaign to oppose this influx of people , saying this influx of people, saying that the town is already suffering with a housing shortage and local services are on the brink. and they say no one over the plans
10:25 pm
one was consulted over the plans as homes were snapped up en masse by developers. bgh property investments, who secured lucrative government contracts through contractor serco . shock horror police are serco. shock horror police are now investigating graffiti that was scrawled on the side of one of the homes, as well earmarked to house some of these migrants. asylum seekers, which read not welcome in large letters welcome scum in large letters which obviously nobody can condone. i'm very pleased to say that i'm joined now by the mayor of millom, it's simone faulkner. simone, thank you very, very much. can you just tell me what's in town what's going on in this town then? still then? really and is this still going go ahead? i know that going to go ahead? i know that you're fighting it. you you're fighting back on it. you weren't consulted. go on to you. >> we are fighting back . >> we are fighting back. >> we are fighting back. >> um, we went to our mp, trudy harrison, who has gone to the government at serco , the home government at serco, the home office, uh, to have meetings. um millom is a very small, isolated town . um, our infrastructure is town. um, our infrastructure is poon town. um, our infrastructure is poor, transport is poor. um, but
10:26 pm
what i think has created this , what i think has created this, this, um, high tension is that the community were not consulted by anybody. we just did not know this was going to happen until the workers came in, started working on the properties. >> uh, a cumbrian , a elamite >> uh, a cumbrian, a elamite asked the person , well, what are asked the person, well, what are you doing there? and they said, well, well, this is for hmos. and then that got onto social media and we, the town council, knew nothing about this until it actually appeared on social media. yeah >> which is staggering. and unfortunately, simone , this kind unfortunately, simone, this kind of stuff is now happening right across the country because people consulted . and people aren't consulted. and it's only when it gets to this stage. thought, by stage. i would have thought, by the might have the way, that you might have needed to needed planning permission to turn one of these homes into an hmo, apparently, apparently hmo, but apparently, apparently not. just explain? hmo, but apparently, apparently not. yeah. just explain? hmo, but apparently, apparently not. yeah. couldt explain? hmo, but apparently, apparently not. yeah. could you 3lain? hmo, but apparently, apparently not. yeah. could you just? yeah, yeah. could you just explain kind of impact if explain the kind of impact if all this goes ahead? right. what kind of impact would that have on your local millom, do on your local area in millom, do you think ? you think? >> w- w— >> well, we've not been given any information. don't know.

10:37 pm
or pretend that they're women. um, to be able to do everything that women are able to do , it that women are able to do, it not only puts women in danger. let's remember that 95% plus of trans women still have their balls and their penis. so that is a danger. i'm sorry. that is a danger. though not all balls and penises danger or just when they're attached to trans they're attached to a trans person. they're person. i'm sorry, but they're not they should not be not women and they should not be in women say they were and i asked, balls and penises asked, are balls and penises inherently dangerous? well, let's should let's be sensible. they should not women's dorms , not be in women's dorms, especially in the army. okay you know, putin must be laughing his socks off. what is going on here? okay, world's gone mad. >> let's let's come back to that, then. i mean, look, regardless of whether or not you think all men are a danger or whatever, um, do you that whatever, um, do you think that there in a female barracks? >> i mean, the vast, vast, vast, vast, majority vast, vast majority of people who are not a danger vast, vast majority of people wianybody are not a danger vast, vast majority of people wianybody . are not a danger vast, vast majority of people wianybody . um, are not a danger vast, vast majority of people wianybody . um, whetheri danger vast, vast majority of people wianybody . um, whether they ger vast, vast majority of people wianybody . um, whether they are to anybody. um, whether they are cis whether they are trans cis or whether they are trans women . right. cis or whether they are trans women. right. um, cis or whether they are trans women . right. um, specifically, women. right. um, specifically, this is one of those stories that that is designed to make
10:38 pm
people really, really cross, even hasn't actually even though it hasn't actually happened. there is number happened. so there is no number that of trans that we have of how many trans women are the army and are women are in the army and are sharing accommodation, the sharing this accommodation, the actual defence sources say that the vast majority of the actual places that people stay are lockable rooms with en suites, and is rare for people and that it is rare for people to share washing facilities. so the this happening is the chances of this happening is infinitesimally rare. is infinitesimally rare. it is designed create outrage . designed to create outrage. >> okay, christine, do you think it's a of diversity ruling it's a sign of diversity ruling our forces? our armed forces? >> well, grant shapps recently promised to crack down on wokeness in the army. we went big on it couple of weeks ago. big on it a couple of weeks ago. um, what i found astonishing um, but what i found astonishing was that only a few months ago, grant shapps had been promoting diverse city and wokeness in the army. what i find fascinating about all these arguments is when you actually look at what's driving these rules, the equality diversity laws that are are making institutions go down this route. many many of them were put in place since the tories came to power in 2010.
10:39 pm
yeah, that is the thing. they don't like to admit, right? you had a very woke left wing, you know, socially, government under under through under david cameron through theresa actually now theresa may. and actually now it's only in the last sort of 3 or 4 years that tory mps are starting to and go, what on starting to look and go, what on earth we been for earth have we been doing for a staggering thing, way, on staggering thing, by the way, on the david cameron and the bbc about david cameron and some of his meetings with putin. >> and there was, he said this without any self—awareness whatsoever, where david cameron said he had a meeting with putin and he really stuck it to him over the work that britain had done on gay marriage and lgbt rights. and i thought putin doesn't care about that. can't believe that you think that was some kind of gotcha moment for him. but i think, in fairness, the reason that this is like you're so right, the reason that this is because this has happened is because they of approval they got a lot of approval for they got a lot of approval for the they the gay marriage thing, and they were do more of that. >> and then didn't work. >> and then that didn't work. >> and then that didn't work. >> thing. no, man >> let's just one thing. no, man can a woman. it can ever become a woman. it doesn't matter if they have an operation take hormones or operation or take hormones or whatever are out whatever drugs that are out there. it on the line.
