gbnews.com and this show has a golden rule we don't do boring, not on my watch. i just won't have it. so a big two hours to come. it is saturday night so shall we have some fun? i think so let's start with my big opinion . we are living in an age opinion. we are living in an age of intolerance in 2024. if someone disagrees with you, not only is there a difference of opinion, you are a bad person. you are the enemy. the healthy competition of ideas has made way for cult like ideologies . way for cult like ideologies. political scripture, unbend narratives, and tribal loyalties. whether it's brexit, pandemic measures, the conflict in gaza, trans rights, net zero, there is a correct opinion on and a wrong opinion on. all of these issues are subject to the tyranny of what in most cases is a tiny minority. but the capture of our public and private

institutions by bonkers progressive ideas like the idea that the west is shameful and our history is something to apologise for. the idea that you can change your biological sex like that , the idea that the like that, the idea that the planet is about to blow up next tuesday, not to mention a total assault on rational and science. all of this has been achieved without a single vote being cast . the woke mob, who reflects only a small portion of british pubuc only a small portion of british public opinion, estimated by the politics professor matthew goodwin , to be less than 10% of goodwin, to be less than 10% of the population in dominate our politics are rife in the public and private sector and seem to enjoy a majority stake in our media. the latest is this extra ordinary story in the daily telegraph, which reveals that the top russell group universities believe that the idea of the best person for the job is a microaggression . that's

job is a microaggression. that's right , folks, merits is dead , right, folks, merits is dead, and being good at things is a bad thing. as far as i'm concerned. the downfall of the west can't happen fast enough. bnng west can't happen fast enough. bring popcorn. our country is changing. without public consent and certainly without any public enthusiasm . ordinary people enthusiasm. ordinary people across the land are sick and tired of living in a country where they're afraid of what to say or what to think . i predict say or what to think. i predict there will be a cultural backlash, and it will eventually correct the other way. and we'll get back to normal. common sense , the truth, facts will win, but without realising it, we've sleepwalked into a more serious and troubling crisis, one which is threatening the rule of law and our democracy . whether it's and our democracy. whether it's insulate britain gluing themselves to the motorway and rather than being arrested. asked whether they'd like a dnnk asked whether they'd like a drink or a sandwich, whether it's dozy cops watching in

silence as eco protesters smash up the windows of bank headquarters, whether it's islamic extremists chanting anti—semitic slurs and literally projecting hate speech onto big ben, which we saw this week, the police and the wider criminal justice system appear to have given up enforcing the law or have indulged in a very forgiving interpretation of it. labour mps are now too terrified to vote against a ceasefire in the middle east front benches like rachel reeves wes streeting and angela rayner are ambushed by aggressive extreme thugs because of their party's position on israel and its right to self—defence . the tory mp for to self—defence. the tory mp for the largely jewish constituency of golders green is to stand down at the next election because of death threats . because of death threats. another mp, andrew percy , said another mp, andrew percy, said this week that he felt safer in israel than in the united kingdom . jewish israel than in the united kingdom .jewish kids israel than in the united kingdom . jewish kids can't go to kingdom. jewish kids can't go to school wearing any religious

clothing for fear of attack. jews now avoid our major cities at the weekend, when those so—called peace marches are happening. now many do march in peace. they want an end to the bloodshed. but too many do not. the ballot box has been replaced by activist politics and frankly, anarchy . the guardian frankly, anarchy. the guardian newspaper published an opinion piece by just stop oil, encouraging protesters to turn up encouraging protesters to turn up at the homes of mps who do not comply with their radical and, let's be honest, harebrained agenda . we've got harebrained agenda. we've got blasphemy laws now by the back door , not voted for by the door, not voted for by the british people with a 14 year old autistic boy in wakefield, west yorkshire , subjected to west yorkshire, subjected to a terrifying kangaroo court after accidentally scuffing a copy of the quran as dozy local cops nod their heads in meek compliance as a school teacher in batley still on the run for showing an image of the prophet muhammad as

an educational tool , an mps an educational tool, an mps didn't want to risk voting a certain way this week for fear of violence and reprisals. not my words. the words of the leader of the opposition, sir keir starmer. that is what he told speaker hoyle , which saw told speaker hoyle, which saw the vote scrapped. our laws , our the vote scrapped. our laws, our traditions, our values and our democracy are being fatally eroded. the authorities are asleep at the wheel and a crash is coming soon. britain will be a write . off. i do think that a write. off. i do think that britain is descending into mob rule. it's not happening immediately, but it's coming . immediately, but it's coming. your reaction mark at gb news dot com or get to your email shortly. but first, my top pundits, journalists and model diana moran, author and commentator laura dodsworth, and campaigner writer chris campaigner and writer chris wilde, laura dodsworth am i exaggerating? is britain

descending into mob rule? we tell you started off by saying that if there's a disagreement or a difference of opinion on, then you're a bad person. >> well, i must be a really good person because with person because i agreed with every single word that was searing . it was brilliant. searing. it was brilliant. i mean, there's so much in there , mean, there's so much in there, it's hard to know where to begin . but there's two points i'd like to make really. . but there's two points i'd like to make really . first of like to make really. first of all, one theme that links a lot of the things you brought up is that these days, we're supposed to be a bit ashamed of ourselves as people, and i never as british people, and i never feel ashamed of britain or british people. but this week i truly felt ashamed of our institutions as i was ashamed that the police allowed genocidal slogans to be emblazoned on westminster and allowed mobs to try to alter the course of parliament. procedure and democracy that an mp is standing down, that all these things are going on, you know, it just makes you ashamed. what

we need is strong. sure, policing without fear or favour , policing without fear or favour, and that's not what we've got at the moment. i'm sick of it. and i think most of the nation is absolutely of it. the other absolutely sick of it. the other thing i to up on is, thing i want to pick up on is, um, depressing thing, but um, it's depressing thing, but it's also it's also funny. it's laughable. the idea that the russell group universities say it's a microaggression if you believe that the best person got the job. and presumably this is to kind of soften the blow for people that have a protected characteristic or some form of disability that might prevent them from getting a job. but we should just be able to recognise merit where exists. if we don't, we head towards a society where we head towards a society where we diminish and we do down excellence , endeavour, invention excellence, endeavour, invention and artistry. you know, there's and artistry. you know, there's a book i just sent recently , a book i just sent recently, it's by the brilliant author lionel shriver. it's called mania. it comes out in spring. i've been sent a review copy and i've been sent a review copy and i thought, wow, this sounds like a really clever idea for a work of a of

of fiction. it's a sort of dystopic, world where dystopic, parallel world where everyone is supposed to be of equal intelligence, and you're not allowed to point out that we have different abilities . and i have different abilities. and i thought, well, this is clever, but it's a bit far fetched, isn't it? wokery will never go that far. and oh, look , wokery that far. and oh, look, wokery is far this week. is going that far this week. >> well said . laura dodsworth, >> well said. laura dodsworth, chris wild . perhaps >> well said. laura dodsworth, chris wild. perhaps i'm >> well said. laura dodsworth, chris wild . perhaps i'm wrong. chris wild. perhaps i'm wrong. perhaps society is changing and democracy is changing. it's not being diluted or attacked. it's just in a process of transition. what do you think? yeah, the world is changing and i think with my work , i work in the with my work, i work in the communities, i work with. >> young i hear >> a lot of young people, i hear this kind of, uh, you know, this rhetoric every day, this language , the lexicon, language, the lexicon, everything is changing. everything i everything is changing. and i think lot of angry think you've got a lot of angry young there don't young people out there who don't really know what they're angry about. really know what they're angry about . i think kind about. and i think that's kind of the catalyst within, of a lot of the catalyst within, you the new way of living. you know, the new way of living. people are looking for people are just looking for things hang on to. they're things to hang on to. they're looking purpose. i looking for a purpose. s and i think one of the main reasons

we, you know , people are like we, you know, people are like this at the moment where there we, you know, people are like ththis the moment where there we, you know, people are like th this precarious nt where there we, you know, people are like th this precarious timesere there we, you know, people are like ththis precarious times and1ere is this precarious times and this mass uncertainty , and this mass uncertainty, and that's because we've got a really poor government. we have for long leadership, we've for so long leadership, we've got poor leadership . you know, got poor leadership. you know, there's nothing to look up to. there's no role models within our parliament, key figures. and that's why got that's why we've got these uncertain that's uncertain times, and that's why we've these things we've got all these things allowed to happen within society. not it's society. uh, it's not it's nothing new. it will kind of fade away. hopefully one day people will get bored . but it's people will get bored. but it's going like this a long going to be like this for a long time have somebody who time until we have somebody who we all can look up to and say, that's a leader. that's the person i want to follow. that's the i respect, and that's the person i respect, and that's the person i respect, and that's the change the person i respect, and that's the we change the person i respect, and that's the we live change the person i respect, and that's the we live our change the person i respect, and that's the we live our life change the person i respect, and that's the we live our life thisige the way we live our life in this society. the way we live our life in this soc diana am over >> diana moran. am i over stating threat to our stating the threat to our democracy and to our culture and values ? values? >> no, don't think you are, mark. >> i have watched what's been going on this week with great interest, which incidentally , gb interest, which incidentally, gb news have covered superbly and i

am really depressed . am really depressed. >> but i'm an older person . i've >> but i'm an older person. i've seen good times, i've seen some bad times, but i am really , bad times, but i am really, really worried about the time that we are now in all this woke nonsense is just ridiculous and then as you've got children and you've got young people, we should be encouraging them to make the most of themselves , not make the most of themselves, not only for what they can do for society, but for themselves. you know, mental health comes into this, and if you're trying hard and you're, you know, getting results, you're you're doing the best you can, you're going to feel better about yourself. and therefore give the best of yourself to the world. >> is britain descending into anarchy? is there a threat to our democracy? let me know your thoughts. perhaps it's just an example of a healthy democracy where people are on their streets making their views known. mark dolan tonight it's the home of diverse opinion. get

gold that gold standard of that with a constitution the constitution that says we the people master and those people are master and those in government but of government are servant. but of course , it's been flipped course, it's been flipped and other also other countries are also fighting so fighting for their freedom. so nigel is tremendous it was nigel is tremendous and it was wonderful to see his presence here. it was my first cpac actually . actually. >> uh, mick mulvaney , whilst >> uh, mick mulvaney, whilst i've got you, donald trump has just finished his keynote to cpac. uh, did he have anything interesting to say? he normally does. >> he normally does . what's fun >> he normally does. what's fun for me is i sort of watch because you can tell when you've seen trump speak enough , when seen trump speak enough, when he's the teleprompter he's going off the teleprompter teleprompter, and he's sort teleprompter, and when he's sort of . he spoke for an hour of riffing. he spoke for an hour and today . speech, as and a half today. the speech, as written probably 45 written out, was probably 45 minutes. you know , minutes. so that's, you know, that's 2 to 1 in in terms of the amount of just making up amount of just making stuff up as went. he's really good. as he went. he's really good. um, does was um, when he does that, it was pretty themes. um he, he pretty basic themes. um he, he did not mention nikki haley. um, today as i sit here in south carolina, is the south carolina republican primary. trump is expected to win by at least 20 and maybe as many as points. and maybe as many as 30 points. it's lot of republicans

it's got a lot of republicans wondering nikki haley is wondering why nikki haley is still in race, but what i still in the race, but what i think saw today, trump think you saw today, yes, trump was speaking to cpac, which is a republican primary base, right. um, but he's going to start transitioning now, effectively today into his general campaign. is general election campaign against joe biden. so you might see the language change a little bit. but the one thing about donald he doesn't donald trump is he doesn't really speeds. he's all really know two speeds. he's all in all of the time. so he will begin his campaign now in full against joe biden. and they will be continued. fireworks every single day for the next, i don't know, eight months now. >> true . alan nigel farage was >> true. alan nigel farage was effusive in his support for donald trump as the republican nominee for the presidential race and, of course, to become president in january of 2025. of course, the election is in november. what are the major obstacles that face donald trump between now and then ? between now and then? >> well, it's the continued political persecution , the political persecution, the lawfare that's going on, them

trying to put him in prison, of course. i mean, that's a great obstacle. i think that ensuring that are as that our elections are as cleaned possible cleaned up as possible is another . but i think another obstacle. but i think that, know, as as he that, you know, as long as he stays i think that he stays on target, i think that he moved right direction. moved the right direction. i was in room spoke today. in the room when he spoke today. uh, much like the uh, he's very much like the george for time. george washington for our time. and seriously . uh, and i say that seriously. uh, he's factionalism . he's moving past factionalism. he's talking about we're the party of common sense. he's speaking to the american citizen. he's to be an citizen. he's going to be an american . forget the american president. forget the factions. don't matter. we factions. those don't matter. we are going down in a dumpster fire right now. and is he, as he pointed out, too, in there he said, we're going to lose the country re—elect country if we don't re—elect him. went off the him. but look, he went off the teleprompter basically whole teleprompter basically the whole time and would challenge time. and you i would challenge any to have been in any american to have been in that room or to hear a speech like and not man , like that and not love the man, because he obviously loves us and america because he's so funny. he told so many stories . funny. he told so many stories. we were laughing hysterically, and human and and he's a human being, and that's bond he has with the that's the bond he has with the voter . voter. >> however, mick mulvaney , do >> however, mick mulvaney, do you have reservations about the

possibility of donald trump returning to the white house, given the fact that we had the debacle of january the sixth, which was something of a national crisis for america and the fact that the president still hasn't accepted the result of last election . of the last election. >> mark, what really worry >> mark, what i really worry about going into a potential second trump terms, and let's make it perfectly clear, i as between trump and biden, i will between trump and biden, i will be supporting donald trump. period. of story. period. end of story. biden is a real problem . we can talk about real problem. we can talk about that more want to. that more if you want to. another time. thing that another time. the thing that concerns about trump, concerns me most about trump, um, what um, and probably what contributed heavily to january 6th, the folks in the very 6th, is the folks in the very inner circle around him. as i explained people , we began explained to people, we began the first turn senior the first turn with senior advisors that included ceo advisors that included the ceo of exxonmobil and the president advisors that included the ceo of goldman)il and the president advisors that included the ceo of goldman sachs. the president advisors that included the ceo of goldman sachs. we president advisors that included the ceo of goldman sachs. we endedent advisors that included the ceo of goldman sachs. we ended with a senior adviser who sells pillows at night on fox news. that's exaggeration. that's not an exaggeration. that's not an exaggeration. that's a real comparison. and i'm about his ability to i'm worried about his ability to get really good people. there are some good names coming out . are some good names coming out. you name come you hear mike pompeo's name come up excellent up again. he's an excellent potential member. you potential cabinet member. you

hear is showing hear steve mnuchin is showing his face on television again. if he back the he could come back into the government great. government that would be great. there's some big names in the republican senate who might come to donald trump , republican senate who might come to donald trump, and to work for donald trump, and thatis to work for donald trump, and that is fantastic. but i do to work for donald trump, and that isthattastic. but i do to work for donald trump, and that isthat there'siut i do to work for donald trump, and that isthat there's at i do to work for donald trump, and that isthat there's a there's worry that there's a there's a group is group around him that is not going at the highest going to be at the highest level. needs the best people level. he needs the best people on inside, that inner on that inside, in that inner level, inside the oval office. on that inside, in that inner leve if inside the oval office. on that inside, in that inner leve if heide the oval office. on that inside, in that inner leve if he doesn't )val office. on that inside, in that inner leve if he doesn't get office. on that inside, in that inner leve if he doesn't get that :e. on that inside, in that inner leve if he doesn't get that ,e. on that inside, in that inner leve if he doesn't get that , the and if he doesn't get that, the presidency could struggle . presidency could struggle. >> uh, mick, finally, if donald trump has the right team , will trump has the right team, will he be a better president than first time round? oh, i think so. 50. >> so. >> i think trump's greatest weakness and his strength in the first turn, mark, was that he didn't washington dc. didn't understand washington dc. again, strength and again, that was a strength and a weakness. understands weakness. now he understands washington work washington dc. i know the work that team has been doing in that his team has been doing in preparation the second terme preparation for the second terme to back against to try and fight back against the state. um, when trump the deep state. um, when trump won in 2016, it took everybody by surprise, including him. no one's going to be surprised this time if wins and the team time if he wins and the team will be able to hit the ground running, and think you'll see running, and i think you'll see a more, a more effective, more, uh, efficacious 2.0 than you efficacious trump 2.0 than you saw in the first time.

>> drew allen we heard from nigel farage last night. he spoke for 15 to 20 minutes. we also heard from our former prime minister, liz truss at cpac. um is it important that conservatives across the west unhe? >> yes, because what we've discussed more and more is global ism. there is a worldwide effort to reduce civilisation to tyrannies and have a ruling elite over everyone. and so, yeah, it's very important that we have world leaders on the same page. i mean , uh, the same page. i mean, uh, the argentinian, uh , president was argentinian, uh, president was here speaking, uh, malay . i here speaking, uh, malay. i mean, this is an amazing movement that's happening. and people that are on the right side of history, if you will, are over this message are unifying over this message and recognising what what we're fighting against, which is the same thing we've always been fighting against tyranny. >> my sincere thanks to mick mulvaney , donald trump's former mulvaney, donald trump's former chief of staff , top republican chief of staff, top republican voice in the united states, and drew allen, who's the author of america's last stand. will you

the show. do you think this is the right move to completely legalise abortion? you know, i'll tell you something, mark. >> it's a delicate, delicate conversation. this isn't it. so i'm going to be delicate , but i i'm going to be delicate, but i don't think you should be allowed as a woman , your own allowed as a woman, your own body. i know there's going to be to have an abortion when you're 22 or 24 weeks. i think it is far too late , mate. a little far too late, mate. a little soul inside you is well formed . soul inside you is well formed. you can even see the sex when they're 3 or 4 months old. if you are pregnant, i think go and see your doctor as early as you can can and stress the fact you do not want that child . then do not want that child. then it's up to that doctor to decide what to do. it is not in the hands of a person, a lady to decide when she's 5 or 6 months pregnant. she's going to abort. i find that appalling. and without a doctor saying medically she needs of her own good, and he's the only one that can do that. i don't think it should be allowed. if you do

fall pregnant, i can understand, um, you know that. you think, oh, god, this is unexpected . i oh, god, this is unexpected. i say up to about two months. if you feel you need to, then go and get an abortion . even if and get an abortion. even if your doctor won't allow it, then what can i say? but no . if you what can i say? but no. if you ask me, should this child be as far as advanced as six and seven months? i'm telling you , no, i months? i'm telling you, no, i don't know how she can do it. no kim. >> fascinating. and i think a very empathetic answer from you . very empathetic answer from you. let's get the views if we can. kim, of my top pundits tonight , kim, of my top pundits tonight, we've got chris wilde, laura dodsworth and diana moran. diane and moran, do you think it's right , right and moran, do you think it's right, right to and moran, do you think it's right , right to completely right, right to completely decriminalise abortion at any stage in the pregnancy? >> i find this one quite difficult . um, if i'm honest . i difficult. um, if i'm honest. i mean, there are circumstances perhaps there's been rape or some dreadful crime like that, that would necessitate , um, an

that would necessitate, um, an abortion . but, you know , um, abortion. but, you know, um, it's a it's a it's a little being and i, i find this really, really tricky . um earlier on in, really tricky. um earlier on in, in, in the pregnancy , uh, maybe in, in the pregnancy, uh, maybe it's been found that the foetus isn't as it should be. perhaps that's a reason for it. isn't as it should be. perhaps that's a reason for it . but that's a reason for it. but later on, i'm i'm i'm concerned about it. i'm worried about it. however, laura dodsworth, if it's wrong to abort at 20 weeks, why is it right to abort at four weeks? >> well , first of all, i just >> well, first of all, i just want to clarify what i think might be a misunderstanding among your guests so far. >> and forgive me if i've got this wrong, but although it will be decriminalised, the rules about change. a about abortion don't change. a woman would still have to go to a doctor. two doctors and can only have an abortion if, um , only have an abortion if, um, the doctor considers that the risk to her physically or

mentally is greater than a termination. so all it means is that if a woman has. let's say, a terrible miscarriage or has an abortion after 24 weeks, she won't it won't be a criminal matter. it's a health care matter. it's a health care matter . so it doesn't matter. it's a health care matter. so it doesn't change matter. it's a health care matter . so it doesn't change the matter. so it doesn't change the rules about abortion. it just changes how such situations are deau changes how such situations are dealt with. after 24 weeks. also, the limits already been reduced from 28 to 24 weeks, which is because the viability of foetuses with modern health care and there are talks to bnng care and there are talks to bring that down further to 22 weeks. so i think actually, if you look at what's really being proposed , we're talking about proposed, we're talking about not sending women to police cells for more tragic situations after 24 weeks. and there have been situations where women have been situations where women have been totally innocent. they've had a miscarriage, and we're talking about also reducing the time limit to a lower point. take into account that foetuses can be saved , um, from 2223

can be saved, um, from 2223 weeks more than they used to be able to be. so i think i think there's a slight misunderstanding about what's being proposed here. is all being proposed here. this is all about women about compassion for women who've you even who've been, you know, even separated children separated from their children after accused after they've been accused of having they having an abortion when they didn't. well indeed. >> laura dodsworth, chris >> now, laura dodsworth, chris wilde is absolutely right to point haven't point out the rules haven't really but the really changed. but the messaging that messaging has. is that significant point? >> yes, absolutely. and laura articulated that really well, and i'm glad you did, because it's one of those subjects i don't know a lot about and i'm very about. but being very cautious about. but being delicate and what my response is . i want to agree with the . but i want to agree with the panel on this as well, is there's lots of things to look at here. quite expansive at here. it's quite an expansive conversation about young girls who young girls who who are raped, young girls who are, know, who who were in are, you know, who who were in this situation where this precarious situation where they're , they fall they're too young, they fall pregnant. have to pregnant. you know, they have to go tell their parents go home and tell their parents that could be could that that could be it could be dreadful young, young dreadful for these young, young people. conversation, people. it's a big conversation, mark, and it needs to be led by clinical professionals and mental health professionals. and it's not something politicians should be deciding. that

should be deciding. without that kind of expertise. >> is. is led by >> but it is. it is led by medical professionals. >> but then but that's >> but then but then if that's the case, then, you know, they know better than all politicians and know better than everyone sat on this panel. if they're leading that conversation, we've got listen that. we've got to listen to that. but we've got to listen to that. but we've got at the data. got to look at the data. we've got to look at the data. we've got the results go got look at the results and go with professional with whatever professional response is. that's it. kim kim woodburn look, i wish we had longer. >> it's really busy show tonight. so let's get you on again as soon as we can. a final question about abortion . when is question about abortion. when is abortion wrong? is it murder ? abortion wrong? is it murder? >> look, there's so many variations as these people have said here. i mean , abortion, if said here. i mean, abortion, if a doctor feels that the lady in question needs an abortion , he question needs an abortion, he has medical reasons whether she would die giving birth or the babyis would die giving birth or the baby is severely crippled and deformed. of course , abortion is deformed. of course, abortion is the right way. there are so many variations, but i don't think any woman who knows she's carrying a healthy baby . she.

carrying a healthy baby. she. now, i don't mean if she's been raped, who wants that baby? and i totally agree with the three of you that say she can see through a boyfriend normally, and carries that baby 5 or 6 and she carries that baby 5 or 6 months. and then she started to abort it. she needs to go to prison . she needs to go to prison. she needs to go to prison. she needs to go to prison . she's all those weeks prison. she's all those weeks she's having that little one, the tiny it is. go to the doctor, tell him and he will sort it out. if he feels mentally you can't cope. but if you can feel that little soul in your tummy, you can see your tummy growing and you get that you're bought that child illegally . jail my love and illegally. jail my love and throw away the flaming key . throw away the flaming key. >> i tell you what, not mincing her words never sat on a fence in her life . my thanks to kim in her life. my thanks to kim woodburn. kim will up woodburn. kim will catch up soon. your as well soon. love to your hubby as well and forward to your and we look forward to your return programme coming and we look forward to your return oh, programme coming and we look forward to your return oh, thereygramme coming and we look forward to your return oh, there you nme coming and we look forward to your return oh, there you go.e coming up in. oh, there you go. honoured in just 15 minutes time in my take at ten, prince william has made a huge mistake by commenting on the war in gaza. he should stick to opening hospitals babies. hospitals and kissing babies.

slipped for prince william . or slipped for prince william. or should i say the crown the king's eldest son and heir to the throne, has rightly won plaudits for his dignity and stoicism in the face of endless attacks on his family and the monarchy. from his younger brother harry. but this week i read with utter shock and astonishment a statement , no astonishment a statement, no less, from our next king about the conflict in gaza , calling the conflict in gaza, calling for an end to the fighting . now for an end to the fighting. now who wouldn't agree that the carnage in the middle east is a catastrophic disaster for, and a devastating tragedy ? but how devastating tragedy? but how arrogant and high minded of prince william, a rich and privileged aristocrat whose platform was earned by accident of birth to cast himself as some kind of peace envoy and international statesman , then it international statesman, then it demonstrates a hubris and naivety that would have even his uncle, prince andrew, blushing. i'm sorry , but who do these i'm sorry, but who do these people think they are? there may well be a for case an immediate end to the fighting. who knows?

but a senior member of the british royal family should not be making it. how will his statement be received in israel, where jewish people suffered their worst single day of slaughter since the holocaust and where over 130 hostages, including women, children and the elderly , remain captive , it the elderly, remain captive, it might not be his intention, but how will jewish people living in this country feel to see their prince of wales offered what could be perceived as succour to a terrorist outfit in hamas, who would surely only welcome his latest comments for israel to drop arms is their plan . in his drop arms is their plan. in his rather flowery statement, prince william does his best winston churchill impression by saying evenin churchill impression by saying even in the darkest hour, we must not succumb to the council of despair. i'll be honest, must not succumb to the council of despair. i'll be honest , the of despair. i'll be honest, the only thing he's got in common with winston churchill is a lack of hair and in the statement he

makes it all about himself , he makes it all about himself, he says, i continue to cling to the hope that a brighter future can be found , and i refuse to give be found, and i refuse to give up on that. well that's nice for you. that last refrain has a flavour of global leadership about it , with william flavour of global leadership about it, with william pitching himself as some kind of international diplomat and dignitary. this follows a rambling speech at the queen's jubilee celebrations in 2022, in which he clearly presented himself as an ambassador for net zero. i'm sorry , william, but if zero. i'm sorry, william, but if you want that sort of role , you want that sort of role, you're going to have to ask somebody to elect you. given that you are part of an arcane institution where your surname bestowed upon you privileged, privileged position that you're going to have to stay out of these matters. that's right. you were born into privilege. you're not elected. being born in the right womb is not a qualification for a role in international affairs. yes, he condemned the violence on both sides, addressed the scourge of

anti—semitism and called for the hostages to be released. but the broader message of an end to the fighting calls into question israel's right to self—defence and its stated military aim of wiping out hamas, who, let's not forget , are no better than the forget, are no better than the nazis . forget, are no better than the nazis. that's forget, are no better than the nazis . that's why forget, are no better than the nazis. that's why this is such a dangerous territory for a senior royal. it's my view that prince william should stick to opening hospital wings and kissing babies if he wants to get political , he can kiss babies if he wants to get political, he can kiss . babies if he wants to get political , he can kiss . off. i political, he can kiss. off. i like prince william, but i think he's crossed a line. what's your view, mark? at gbnews.com? or get to your email shortly . but get to your email shortly. but first, my top pundits, journalists and model diana moran, author and commentator laura dodsworth, and campaigner and writer chris wilde . and, uh, and writer chris wilde. and, uh, can i ask you , uh, diana moran, can i ask you, uh, diana moran, your reaction to this intervention by prince william, the prince of wales?

>> i do think that he's made a mistake . i think he's crossed mistake. i think he's crossed the line . i don't think royal the line. i don't think royal should be saying the sort of things that he's saying . i know things that he's saying. i know there are good intentions ons, but he is not the government. um i don't think he should have been saying anything like this at all. i think his, his grandmother would have been very , very concerned to have heard him interfering with it. >> yes. i don't remember chris wilde, the queen commenting on any wars. >> well , i'm any wars. >> well, i'm sorry, you any wars. >> well , i'm sorry, you know, >> well, i'm sorry, you know, i love the queen, but she's she's not here anymore. and i think princess diana would have said a lot about this . and he's in his lot about this. and he's in his rights as a senior royal to speak about the war. of course, he is. he is a diplomat, mark. so i disagree with what you've just said there. for the first time, disagree you. he's time, i disagree with you. he's the person to speak up the perfect person to speak up right because his voice is

right now because his voice is powerful. and what's going on over everybody over there? you know, everybody needs to be having an opinion if any anybody's voice resonate any anybody's voice can resonate accord. it's his. so i think it's in his rights to say as much as he can as a royalist , as much as he can as a royalist, as a human being, as a father. yes speak up, speak out. do what you need to do. >> laura dodsworth , the prince >> laura dodsworth, the prince of wales, prince william simply wants an end to the fighting , an wants an end to the fighting, an end to the carnage. what's not to like, huh? >> well , we know all about what >> well, we know all about what he wants because he managed he wants because he he managed to use a lot of eyes that to use a lot of eyes in that letter, didn't he? was very letter, didn't he? it was very egocentric. very last egocentric. even the very last line of the refrain. i refuse to give up on that. so i'm not sure he's the perfect person to have done this at all, for all the reasons you set out. i'd i'd reasons you set out. but i'd i'd go a bit further. i said, i think really there's a feeling that he's probably co—opted think really there's a feeling tilittle's probably co—opted think really there's a feeling tilittle bit robably co—opted think really there's a feeling tilittle bit essentially co—opted think really there's a feeling tilittle bit essentially by o—opted think really there's a feeling tilittle bit essentially by the pted government. >> he's a human being or the hang on, let me finish , hang on, let me finish, potentially copped a little bit by government the foreign by the government or the foreign office it's a bit office because it's a bit strange, that comes strange, isn't it, that he comes out week that out with this in the week that

rishi language is rishi sunak language is hardening a little bit . hardening up a little bit. >> right. so i'm not sure he's done this on his own. after all, where's his statement about the 1 to 2 million uyghurs who've been forcibly detained in china? i mean, i missed that one. i missed that. i also don't really like this churchillian reference . i think it's it should really be beneath him to have done this. >> he hasn't because it laura, he has earned the right. he has use to. >> he's not earned it has he? he hasn't earned it. but also churchill wouldn't have said in this darkest know, let's churchill wouldn't have said in this

terrorist organisation, and the return of the hostages. so i think that prince william's really made a misstep with this before he's even king. i think it's a great pity because lots of us really have high hopes for this generation of royalty and he's overstepped his line here. >> chris, while you're shaking your head, you don't look happy. >> no, i don't i don't i think first and foremost, he regards of his position. he's a human being . he's a father. you know, being. he's a father. you know, who can who anybody in that position, how could they just stay silent about what's happening over there at the moment? can't a moment? yes. you can't have a biased can have biased opinion, but you can have a an opinion, you a you can have an opinion, you can a voice. that's can have a voice. and that's what don't want what he's doing. i don't want the royal family the head of the royal family sitting at home in their privileges, not doing anything. i want speak up. i want i want them to speak up. i want them leaders and he is them to be leaders and he is showing leadership by showing pure leadership by speaking let's let's speaking up. because let's let's face it, these politicians we've got moment , they're got at the moment, they're useless. if the royal useless. but so if the royal family can do something and their can resonate abroad, their voice can resonate abroad, so be it. chris >> chris wylde, i understand

your we your point of view and we all want war stop. course want the war to stop. of course we the carnage, it's we do. and the carnage, it's devastating. happening devastating. what's happening in gaza. devastating. what's happening in gaza . but what would you say to gaza. but what would you say to a jewish person watching this program who feels offended by that interview , asian or indeed that interview, asian or indeed someone in israel? following the october 7 attacks? what would you say to them? >> mark my opinion on this war is war. i don't want to see war. i want see peace. i is war. i don't want to see war. iwant see peace. i don't i want to see peace. i don't want children every want to see children dying every day. would say to day. but what i would say to anybody listen, if anybody is that, listen, if anybody is that, listen, if anybody powerful and anybody has a powerful voice and if speak , and with if anybody can speak, and with that voice prevent any more killings, then yes, so be it . killings, then yes, so be it. it's i think you're picking at straws here. you really are you really are. >> fair enough, fair enough. um, diana moran, you get the last word. well, i think it's putting the royal family at jeopardy. >> and at this particular moment in our history, it's all a bit dicey. anyhow and i don't think this has helped . this has helped. >> let me tell you that my brilliant pundits return at exactly 1030 sharp for tomorrow's papers . and at 1045,

tomorrow's papers. and at 1045, we have an exclusive live interview featuring the former prime minister boris johnson on the two year anniversary of the invasion of ukraine. that's right, boris johnson. before the end of the show. but next up, king charles reduced to tears by pubuc king charles reduced to tears by public support following his cancer diagnosis and rumours of a work divorce for harry and meghan , the queen of us royal meghan, the queen of us royal reporter in kinsey schofield bnngs reporter in kinsey schofield brings us reaction. lots to get through. don't go anywhere

statement. he cannot just say nothing which is impacting life in the uk. noel says. hi mark, i note you're rather mean spirited comments on william's stance on gaza , which will have been gaza, which will have been approved by the government . um, approved by the government. um, and let's have a look at one more if i've got time . um uh oh more if i've got time. um uh oh yes. mark so your guest, your pundh yes. mark so your guest, your pundit chris wild, thinks it's okay for prince william to make a statement on israel. what about when it's about a subject that he doesn't agree with? also, prince william is not a leader. he is a figurehead. listen, keep those opinions coming. mark dolan tonight is the home of diverse opinion. this is a show where everybody disagrees with the presenter. and that's just how i like it. okay, lots to get through. it's time for us now with the time for us news now with the queen showbiz, royal queen of american showbiz, royal and political someone and political reporting. someone i always agree with. it's kinsey schofield. hi mark, schofield. hi, kinsey. hi mark, good to hear your voice and see you. uh, tell me about the sussexes work, divorce . sussexes work, divorce. >> well, first of all, i would just like to congratulate the

sun on catching up with me because been saying this because i've been saying this for a year, we would for over a year, that we would see branch out and try to see meghan branch out and try to branch herself to prove that she's something beyond a princess wife. and we saw a lot of that. this week here los of that. this week here in los angeles. two faux pas sightings of meghan markle actually on thursday one was thursday afternoon when she was at an italian restaurant in the heart of beverly hills, lunching with the same designer of her givenchy wedding dress . and then givenchy wedding dress. and then that evening, we saw her after a costume change, of course , costume change, of course, dining with some of oprah winfrey's producers. um you know, likely trying to talk about future projects. she's got her netflix deal, which expires in 2025. um, but we are seeing harry and meghan kind of go in different directions . but different directions. but meghan, we do see her show up to support prince harry when it comes to invictus . um, and then comes to invictus. um, and then every once in a while , you kind every once in a while, you kind of see prince harry insert himself in some of meghan's projects , like it was his idea projects, like it was his idea for her to have a male dominated

podcast . last episode of podcast. last episode of archetypes . archetypes. >> kinsey. what drives their relationship? is it love or is it business? >> i think that they are crazy in love with each other, but i also think that they have isolated and alienated themselves from everyone that they've ever known. really, that it kind of clinging to each other because who do they have left ? but i do other because who do they have left? but i do think that other because who do they have left ? but i do think that they, left? but i do think that they, they do love each other. they are driven by money because that's what they need to survive. and you know, we're seeing a lot of them leaning on that royal brand while trying to pretend like they're not, uh, tell us, who is martha stewart and why might meghan markle be the new martha stewart ? isn't the new martha stewart? isn't this such a strange story? meghan markle wants to be the new martha stewart, the one that was in the slammer was the one that, like martha stewart from from the slammer. i think that

this is just, um, honest . this is just, um, honest. they've just replaced the name gwyneth paltrow with martha stewart. what and i agree with this story , because if you look this story, because if you look at what meghan developed herself through the tig, it was a lifestyle brand . um, you know, lifestyle brand. um, you know, years ago, or at least six months ago, this story was circulating that meghan markle wanted to be the new gwyneth paltrow. now we're saying paltrow. and now we're saying through, you know, page six is reporting meghan markle wants to be the new martha stewart. what that general is somebody that is in general is somebody that is in general is somebody thatis that is in general is somebody that is a mainstream influencer. she wants to have a cooking show, a cookbook. she wants you to be able to go to , um, a tesco to be able to go to, um, a tesco and find pots and pans with her face on it . i and find pots and pans with her face on it. i do and find pots and pans with her face on it . i do believe that face on it. i do believe that this is the direction that meghan and william morrison endeavour are trying to create. i think they're trying to create a path for meghan in this environment of being a lifestyle expert . right. expert. right. >> well, that's right, because of course, martha stewart was the queen of lifestyle advice, wasn't she? she had mass live

shows in in the 80s and 90s, and she had cookbooks. and there was crockery and all sorts. >> now she's best friends with snoop dogg, which i you know, i can applaud that. >> i that shows that shows that an ability to go in crazy places so god bless martha stewart. yes indeed. >> she's been on quite the journey. how would you appraise meghan markle's popularity in the united states at the moment ? the united states at the moment? >> i you know, i don't think it looks good for meghan to be thrusting herself into the limelight in the midst of the king and princess of wales health concerns . i think it health concerns. i think it looks a little vapid and shallow for her to be hobnobbing around beverly hills in the midst of some of these , uh, very serious some of these, uh, very serious issues , but they really lack issues, but they really lack self—awareness. that's something that we've seen throughout the last several years. i think that she's not she doesn't believe that their health concerns are her concern , and she's moving her concern, and she's moving forward .

forward. >> of course, she would challenge those views and argue that she's very worried about the health of family members the health of her family members . but you're entitled to your view, . um, you mentioned view, kinsey. um, you mentioned the king reduced to tears as a result of the outpouring of pubuc result of the outpouring of public support following his cancer diagnosis. >> that's right . cancer diagnosis. >> that's right. this cancer diagnosis. >> that's right . this is a, you >> that's right. this is a, you know, just kind of a comment that he made to rishi sunak about how moved he was by. and i actually, if anyone's interested in writing the king, i put the address on my instagram because i did i, you know, it was important to me to reach out to him and tell how devastated him and tell him how devastated i was by the news. that really shocked i think shocked all of us. um, i think that he is such a sensitive soul and he is a sweet man and if you can, if you can reach out to him, please do let him know that you're thinking about him. if that's the way you feel. because i think it's lifted his spirits quite . quite a bit. >> right? well, most definitely. we wish him well. let me tell you that i wrote to him, kinsey. i wrote to the king, he i wrote to the king, and he loves show , so i know he

does. >> i'm sure that, well, he actually really does love to watch and listen to radio and news. so i whenever i'm there, i'm always like, i wonder if the king just saw me on the i've got the letter somewhere and it says one watches gb news and mark dolan tonight so very, very flattered. >> um, listen, let's talk about the king of gb news nigel farage. he's been in the united states . kinsey at cpac , which is states. kinsey at cpac, which is a kind of a conference for people on the political right in the united states. republican support hours. he made quite , support hours. he made quite, quite a splash. um, are people starting to get familiar with who nigel farage is now in america ? america? >> you know, absolutely . we love >> you know, absolutely. we love nigel farage here. i you know, i think that he is he's become a bigger personality thanks to his association with donald trump . association with donald trump. cpac is obviously the perfect venue for him. this is where they cut, you know, conservatives , republicans come conservatives, republicans come together and they determine what direction they're headed in in the future . they want to the future. they want to

spotlight some of the political leaders. and, you know , nigel is leaders. and, you know, nigel is a great, reasonable common sense voice who does definitely stand behind the former president, donald trump. um, and he's got great stories about where he comes from and what's going on on your side of the pond , and on your side of the pond, and how we can avoid seeing some of those same things come over here. well, indeed. >> and interestingly , a majority >> and interestingly, a majority of my viewers on mark dolan tonight have voted in our poll saying that they think that nigel farage should be the next u.k. ambassador to the united states. that would be a great platform for mr farage, wouldn't it ? it? >> oh, absolutely. i think that he would wear that that title with flying colours . with flying colours. >> uh, most definitely. listen, you've delivered , as always, you've delivered, as always, with flying colours tonight , with flying colours tonight, kinsey. we'll catch you in a week's time . do check week's time. do check out kinsey's website to kinsey's brilliant website to differ daily and her podcast out of the same name. lots more to get through though. tomorrow's front pages and live reaction in

the wrong group of people . um, the wrong group of people. um, diana moran , has lee anderson diana moran, has lee anderson been thrown under the bus or has he brought this on himself? >> i think he's been thrown under bus. >> i think he's been thrown under bus . um, >> i think he's been thrown under bus. um, i >> i think he's been thrown under bus . um, i agree with under the bus. um, i agree with an awful lot of what he said. it's probably the extreme way that he said it. >> um, i mean, is that an issue? is it just the wording of what lee anderson had to say, do you think? >> yeah, i think so. chris. listen you've made a good listen you've just made a good point right? i'll point there. all right? i'll agree with you with that. it's point there. all right? i'll agrewayith you with that. it's point there. all right? i'll agreway he you with that. it's point there. all right? i'll agreway he saidnith that. it's point there. all right? i'll agreway he said it] that. it's point there. all right? i'll agreway he said it] personally the way he said it. i personally think it was agreed aukus he should have thought about this before he even spouted it out, knowing it would cause him loads of trouble . again, it's just of trouble. again, it's just these politicians. it's a delay tactic. it's a dog for tactic. it's a dog whistle for the conservatives i they the conservatives i think they just the end near and just know the end is near and he's not helping, is he ? uh, no. he's not helping, is he? uh, no. >> listen, let's have a look at, uh, what exactly was said. um, sadiq khan, the mayor of london, accused the prime minister of being complicit in racism for failing to condemn mr anderson's

comments that poor fuel on the fire of anti—muslim hatred. he said the claim was islamophobic and sent the message that muslims were fair game when it came to racism. does he have a point about this very delicate national conversation? we're having between different cultures? diana moran, he may have a point . have a point. >> it is such a delicate situation . situation. >> grant shapps has distanced himself from mr anderson's comments . business minister comments. business minister ghani described her tory colleagues comments as foolish and dangerous , and he's a smart and dangerous, and he's a smart guy, foolish and dangerous. >> laura dodsworth no, i think he says things in a really kind of, um , what's the word? he's of, um, what's the word? he's quite extravagant in his . no, quite extravagant in his. no, he's quite extravagant in his language, but the point he's making is one that is bearing fruit right now, as i said, we have mps with bodyguards and the

risk they're at what they're at risk they're at what they're at risk from is islamist extremists. and that's what lee anderson was talking about and calling out. he wasn't talking about all muslims. so to say that he's guilty of stirring up anti—muslim , um , sentiment is anti—muslim, um, sentiment is not accurate. that's not what he said. >> so actually, let's have a little look at what he said before i get to his response. um, he he said, i don't actually believe that the islamists have got control of our country. but what i do believe is they've got control of sadiq khan , the control of sadiq khan, the london mayor, and they've got control of london. he said that sadiq khan had given our capital city away to his mates. i mean, he's really sticking his neck out about mayor khan . out about mayor khan. >> there he is. i mean, okay, it's definitely incendiary towards sadiq khan, but look at the streets of london on saturdays , which a majority of saturdays, which a majority of jews say are now are no go zone for them . does this not matter? for them. does this not matter? do he should? do you think he should? >> to school the >> and going to school the children ? yeah. children? yeah. >> children are >> the jewish children are

afraid to school in afraid to go to school in anything religious. um, got anything religious. um, i've got guests will only come on guests that will only come on this show in a taxi , which i this show in a taxi, which i think is very telling . diana think is very telling. diana moran, do you think that lee anderson should have kept the conservative whip should conservative whip then? should he conservative mp he still be a conservative mp >> i would like him to be, but i can see the argument that perhaps he shouldn't mark. >> also, just bear in mind if it's me and you on on tv or radio who said that we would lose jobs too ? because lose our jobs too? because you've got to think about, you know, your position, how powerful position is powerful that your position is when you say stuff like that of course he's going to lose his job, probably knows job, and he probably knows that as about freedom as well. but what about freedom of freedom of of speech? but mark, freedom of speech? what these these are politicians. once you sign that contract, once you get that job, you know your this thing you know your your this thing about freedom of doesn't about freedom of speech doesn't really like you . really exist to people like you. you've try and keep the you've got to try and keep the peace. laura's you've got to try and keep the peace.though, laura's you've got to try and keep the peace.though, that laura's you've got to try and keep the peace.though, that hejra's you've got to try and keep the peace.though, that he was point, though, that he was referencing islamists, is point, though, that he was reterme,�*|g islamists, is point, though, that he was reterme, anislamists, is point, though, that he was reterme, an islamist, is point, though, that he was reterme, an islamist refers is point, though, that he was reterme, an islamist refers to! a terme, an islamist refers to an islamic extremist, somebody that supports hamas, for example. yes. mark but then

again, i agree with it's again, i agree with you. it's how it's how he how he said it. it's how he delivered the speech. >> i'm just going >> well, i'm just going to gently out slight gently point out a slight double standard forgive me. standard here. forgive me. >> i know what you're going to go know, you're saying >> i know what you're going to go saying you're saying! >> i know what you're going to go saying you're saying that you're saying you're saying that people say things people shouldn't say things that are which are beyond their role, which is exactly of wales exactly what the prince of wales has highly has done about highly contentious, has done about highly contenti(situation. you see, political situation. so you see, you when suits your political situation. so you see, you beliefs, hen suits your political situation. so you see, you beliefs, but suits your political situation. so you see, you beliefs, but notjits your political situation. so you see, you beliefs, but not ifs your political situation. so you see, you beliefs, but not if it/our doesn't. >> a political debate about this at i'm i'm not. well, at all. i'm not i'm not. well, it's a different statement. it's a completely different statement. >> indeed . >> indeed. >> indeed. >> indeed. >> i think i've got a statement here. yes it is. here it comes. well done maria . so lee well done maria. so lee anderson, is of course anderson, who is of course a conservative mp but now an independent, having lost the conservative mp but now an indejwhipent, having lost the conservative mp but now an indejwhip and1aving lost the conservative mp but now an indejwhip and he'sg lost the conservative mp but now an indejwhip and he's a lost the conservative mp but now an indejwhip and he's a presenter tory whip and he's a presenter on news, said following on gb news, said following a call with the chief whip i understand the difficult position i've put he position that i've put both. he and the prime minister in with regards fully regards to my comments. i fully accept that they had no option but suspend the whip in these but to suspend the whip in these circumstances. i will circumstances. however i will continue the continue to support the government's efforts to call out extremism in all its forms, be that antisemites , ism or that antisemites, ism or islamophobia. it's forms be that

anti—semitism or islamophobia. okay just repeating myself there. but look, there is the statement from lee anderson. um, laura, is there any sign action that should be meted out to lee anderson? do you think i don't know, look, i'm really not a political animal. >> i don't know about the ins and outs of how you discipline mps for saying the wrong thing or wrong just or not. the wrong thing. i just think said actually think what he said actually wasn't. very wasn't. while it was very critical of sadiq khan, he was talking about islamists. you know, read that last line know, you read that last line twice by mistake, but it bears repeating , because anti—semitism twice by mistake, but it bears repeislamophobia e anti—semitism twice by mistake, but it bears repeislamophobia are 1ti—semitism twice by mistake, but it bears repeislamophobia are notsemitism and islamophobia are not equivalent. one is a hatred of jews and one is criticism of a religion . and it's interesting religion. and it's interesting how they always put each how they always put next to each other same other like they're the same thing, comparable . other like they're the same thirsundayzomparable . other like they're the same thirsunday telegraphe . other like they're the same thirsunday telegraph nigel farage >> sunday telegraph nigel farage woosley anderson after tory sacked over khan comments. does this increase the chances diana moran of lee anderson defecting to reform uk ? to reform uk? >> ooh, if could well be because

determination to win the war. hi folks, i'm here on the second anniversary of vladimir putin's barbaric invasion of ukraine. >> i'm here in in kyiv, where in spite of everything, those gallant, heroic ukrainians are fighting on, and i've got absolutely no doubt that they are going to win. and i think that with the support of the west, provided we do the right thing, given the right support militarily , politically and militarily, politically and economically , the courage of economically, the courage of ukrainians , their natural ukrainians, their natural determination to fight for their homeland will prevail. but i'm very happy to be joined. uh talking to gb news by, uh , a talking to gb news by, uh, a friend who i've worked for , with friend who i've worked for, with for years of distinguished former ambassador, former foreign minister of ukraine, former ambassador to london vadym prystaiko , uh vadym , how vadym prystaiko, uh vadym, how do you see things ? uh, two years

do you see things? uh, two years after this evil invasion? are you still confident your country is going to win ? is going to win? >> thank you. boris, you. you've seen yourself that unbelievably so. but ukrainians sort of feel that it's not just spring coming to kyiv. it's today's quite warm in kyiv. but there is the hope rising. maybe because people like you and so many foreign dignitaries came and they came in not empty handed. they come in not empty handed. they come in with with ideas how to get back to ukraine, to bring it up to the agenda of the world, how to the agenda of the world, how to bring the weapons, how to ramp up sanctions, how to get russians money be frozen, all around the globe to help ukraine to achieve gain territory and regain hope. >> and if you had a message to gb news viewers about what you think the uk should be doing in particular is the one thing you'd you'd pick out . you'd you'd pick out. >> i believe that's my, uh , >> i believe that's my, uh, years in the uk, where the pinnacle of my career, not because i was happy to be in london, which is great. i mean, by itself , because this by itself, but because of this great of the people great support of the people

there the government, people there and the government, people , regions, everywhere, i felt it. i've seen ukrainian flags. i remember everything we've done in the parliament or even just talking to the soldier or person on street who was inviting on the street who was inviting the ukrainian refugees , all of the ukrainian refugees, all of these mounds out to the what we felt in, in uk, and it was actually being translated all over the europe. you were pushing the europeans and sometimes our friends over the pond to do more and more look at where we are now. they're supported by germany, supported by all our by france, supported by all our lives there lives. we wouldn't be there without uk's initial push. without the uk's initial push. thank . thank you. >> and don't forget folks, although things look tough for ukraine and have looked tough for the last two years, the simple facts are that they've kicked vlad putin's armies out of more than half of the territory that they originally occupied, about 315,000 russian troops have been killed or injured , a ratio of probably injured, a ratio of probably seven to one. when you compare it with what the ukrainian armed forces have suffered , uh,

forces have suffered, uh, they've taken out thousands and thousands of russian tanks. 40% of the russia's black sea fleet . of the russia's black sea fleet. and yet ukraine's exports are now back up to pre—war levels. so i've got absolutely no doubt that with the right support from the west , ukraine can that with the right support from the west, ukraine can win. and it's vital in the months ahead that we give them that support. this is an unconventional report . uh, but here we are in kyiv on the eighth. the sad sixth anniversary with a ukrainian popular action that, in my view, is absolute determined still to win. and they're going to win . win. and they're going to win. and you can rewatch that interview later if you're having trouble getting to sleep. >> now, let's , uh, let's have >> now, let's, uh, let's have a look at my nominees for headline hero and back page zero in the company of diana moran , laura company of diana moran, laura dodsworth and chris wild . so, dodsworth and chris wild. so, diana, who is your front page hero? >> king charles is my hero. uh, because as a former cancer
