lisa mckenzie . this show is lisa mckenzie. this show is always anarchy . plus is always anarchy. plus is anti—depressant medication a scam? i'll be asking a top expert who says popping the pills isn't always the answer. plus, the most important part of the show your emails. plus, the most important part of the show your emails . they come the show your emails. they come straight to my laptop mark at gbnews.com and this show has a golden rule we don't do boring. not on my watch . i just won't not on my watch. i just won't have it a big two hours to come. we start with my big opinion . we start with my big opinion. remember the good old days when racism and segregation were bad? the london production of a hit us theatre show called slave play will hold two so—called blackout performances exclusively for an all black identifying audience set on a plantation in the old american south. the award winning play explores race, identity and sexuality . well, i'll be honest ,

sexuality. well, i'll be honest, i look forward to seeing the show on one of the lights nights when maybe i'm actually allowed to go . how many mental to go. how many mental gymnastics do you have to go through to reach the conclusion that segregating people based upon the colour of their skin is somehow the way to tackle somehow the best way to tackle racism? i would suggest racism? i would humbly suggest it's like tackling a forest fire with unleaded petrol. now, clearly there are people of ethnic backgrounds who do not participate enough in live theatre, and this highly regarded show, which tackles the hellish crime and dark legacy of slavery, should be watched and enjoyed by as wide an audience as possible . but the optics of as possible. but the optics of an invitation to just one group of people based upon the pigmentation of their skin, to anyone with half a brain, is divisive , deranged and divisive, deranged and potentially dangerous . how does potentially dangerous. how does racism fix racism? how does the return of apartheid , which is return of apartheid, which is what this policy effectively amounts to help people of colour

after decades of progress in the west, much of this looks to be under threat or could even be reversed with the idea that people of colour are somehow tragic victims who need to be among their own own, whatever that means, in order to enjoy a show . and how do you define show. and how do you define black? what about mixed race people , asian people, south people, asian people, south american people? it makes no sense now. defenders of the policy have talked about how unsafe , safe theatres are for unsafe, safe theatres are for some groups . unsafe. do me a some groups. unsafe. do me a favour . firstly, some groups. unsafe. do me a favour. firstly, it's some groups. unsafe. do me a favour . firstly, it's wildly favour. firstly, it's wildly patronising and therefore potentially racist to say that theatres are unsafe for certain groups and also theatres are only unsafe if you're sat next to someone who's endlessly coughing, getting up to go to the loo all the time, or spilling their haagen—dazs salted caramel ice cream on your lap . otherwise, theatres are not lap. otherwise, theatres are not unsafe and these performances are apparently there to help patrons avoid what's been called

the white gaze . this is the white gaze. this is progress. is it demonising groups based upon immutable characteristics? it's like martin luther king never happened. martin luther king never happened . and let's not forget happened. and let's not forget this man is a hero who said that we should be judged on the content of our character, not the colour of our skin. well, he'd probably be cancelled in 2024 for his wise words and his desire to bring humanity together. black lives matter. which is why in my view, people of colour shouldn't be treated like children or victims. and be pushed into cultural silos . pushed into cultural silos. here's an idea why don't we try to get everyone to go to the theatre, lower ticket prices have better marketing of shows across all communities, including to ethnic groups, and have school trips. i agree with the guardian who wrote about that. this weekend. theatre is crushing middle class and should be for all. so maybe all communities could go to the theatre together and learn together and have a good time

together and have a good time together for all classes, all races , all religions, all races, all religions, all backgrounds . is this backgrounds. is this exclusionary stuff is divisive and wrong and probably illegal if enforced very literally . this if enforced very literally. this policy to effectively shut certain people out of performances is a pantomime , a performances is a pantomime, a farce, and theatre of the absurd. this five star show gets only one star for common sense . only one star for common sense. now. the theatre have made it clear that if you are a white person, for example, or don't identify as black, you can go to the show. you won't be stopped from purchasing a ticket, but the invitation is focussed on an audience of colour. the invitation is focussed on an audience of colour . but i think audience of colour. but i think it's divisive. i think it's a mistake, but if you back the policy, do let me know. mark at gbnews.com. but first, your response from the pundits tonight comes in the form of political commentator rebecca

jane, author and journalist benedict spence, and broadcaster and anarchist doctor lisa mckenzie . lisa, let me start mckenzie. lisa, let me start with you. your reaction to this idea of a special theatre performance just for one group of people, based on their skin colour? >> i heard the interview actually, with the director of the play and actually his reasoning, i kind of i did understand it because what he said is he did say ethnic minority and poor people . he minority and poor people. he said that together he said the theatre is mostly white and middle class , uh, unsafe . i middle class, uh, unsafe. i wouldn't sort of i wouldn't say that, but i think it can be intimidating. i've been , you intimidating. i've been, you know, i'm not a massive theatre goen know, i'm not a massive theatre goer, but when i have been to the theatre, i am somebody. i think when you come from sort of working class backgrounds , that working class backgrounds, that sort of theatre, you want to be engagedin sort of theatre, you want to be engaged in it. sort of theatre, you want to be engagedinit.and sort of theatre, you want to be engaged in it. and so perhaps you might want to talk or you might want to say, no, i don't agree or whatever. um,

agree with that or whatever. um, and so i do think that sometimes theatre audiences are a bit snobby. um and unwelcoming and i was actually talking about this some working class theatre makers earlier today , and we makers earlier today, and we were talking about music hall and how it was a place where people from the same class sort of got together . um, and really of got together. um, and really how those sorts of things have gone now and perhaps i'm not saying that this is a great idea , but i can kind of i'm not going to sort of shut it down straight away. i can understand it. >> rebecca jane, the idea of the producer and the director of this show, which is the hit show from america, is to attract people of colour to come to the theatre and watch a show that contains important themes around black history. so what's wrong with inviting a black audience as if it's not inviting a black audience , is it? audience, is it? >> though it's excluding a white audience. you know, racism goes

both ways. i don't understand and i actually really would like to be educated as to why this should be something of import science, but all i see is that you can't create inclusivity by being so diversive and segregating people. it is almost like it is becoming shameful in today's society to actually just be white. it's i can't understand it, mark. and i'm really struggling and i really want to and i know that we have to, you know, raise education levels and understanding. but this is not the way to do it. okay >> i mean, let's take a listen to the words benedict spens of inaya followers , iman, who's a inaya followers, iman, who's a brilliant broadcast and journalist who of course used to be here at gb news writing for the mail website, benedict, she said i'm appalled that any playwright would contemplate segregating theatre audiences . segregating theatre audiences. black people are perfectly comfortable going to the theatre. we don't need special treatments to enhance our

enjoyment . what do you think? enjoyment. what do you think? >> i mean, perhaps if they were trying point about trying to make a point about segregation, is, segregation, i mean, this is, after play that is based after all, a play that is based in, you know, history of in, you know, in the history of the deep south. but i don't think that is what they're trying least that's think that is what they're tryi|what least that's think that is what they're tryi|what heard.t that's think that is what they're tryi|what heard. i'mit's think that is what they're tryi|what heard. i'm i'm not what i've heard. i'm i'm completely favour of this completely in favour of this policy because i think any policy because i think that any sort of very self—indulgent policy because i think that any sort 0 shouldelf—indulgent policy because i think that any sort 0 shouldelf—ilasrlgent policy because i think that any sort 0 shouldelf—ilas few1t plays should have as few audience possible. audience members as possible. and trying to and this is actively trying to stop so stop people from going. so presumably last very presumably it won't last very long because they just won't get the bums on the seats. people won't through the doors won't go through the doors to watch they're won't go through the doors to watch saying they're won't go through the doors to watch saying to :hey're won't go through the doors to watch saying to people, actively saying to people, please we're please don't come. we're prioritising other people who presumably to come presumably don't want to come in the won't the first place, so it won't have a particularly long i have a particularly long run. i think is of the think that this is sort of the free market in action. there sort of there saying, sort of sitting there saying, oh, we're trying to oh, actually, we're trying to appeal demographic that appeal to a demographic that perhaps to appeal to a demographic that peritheatre. to appeal to a demographic that peritheatre. well, to appeal to a demographic that peritheatre. well, clue to the theatre. well, the clue there it doesn't there is that it doesn't necessarily want to go to the theatre. and on the other hand, it'll we to theatre. and on the other hand, it'll up we to theatre. and on the other hand, it'll up with we to theatre. and on the other hand, it'll up with far we to theatre. and on the other hand, it'll up with far fewer/e to theatre. and on the other hand, it'll up with far fewer the to theatre. and on the other hand, it'll up with far fewer the upper put up with far fewer the upper middle class white people saying, went to this saying, oh, i went to this really play the other saying, oh, i went to this realon play the other saying, oh, i went to this realon it.ay the other saying, oh, i went to this realon it.ay tiso,>ther saying, oh, i went to this realon it.ay tiso, oh,r day on slavery. it was so, oh, you to see it. i think you just have to see it. i think we've all been spared a massive

tormen, but frankly, we're not going massive, going to get the massive, you know, sort of five star know, a sort of five star reviews everywhere see on reviews everywhere you see on billboards across london. billboards all across london. because seen because nobody will have seen it. a very positive it. i think it's a very positive thing, frankly. >> listen, i know >> okay. well, listen, i know your tongue in your when your tongue in your cheek when you're saying that, it is you're saying that, but it is a concern people of in concern that people of colour in this going to this country are not going to the and all this the theatre. and all this director is trying to do and of course, the venue themselves is attract people to go and see this play. what do this important play. but what do you at gbnews.com. you think, mark at gbnews.com. but up in the big story, but next up in the big story, has fallen into the has britain fallen into the hands of extremists? i'll be asking . britain's best known asking. britain's best known political act , the political double act, the hamiltons. plus, following rumours that he sent flirty messages to a colleague, i'll ask neil and christine is spicy girl geri halliwell right to stand by her man? all of that is

next. well, a big reaction to a london theatre putting on black only performances that was the topic of my big opinion in the theatre are saying they want to include people who don't normally attend theatrical performances. well, theatrical performances. well, the emails are coming in thick and fast . uh, lesley ann says and fast. uh, lesley ann says hi. you imagine if a hi. can you imagine if a producer said white people only? can you imagine? this is ridiculous. it is racist. mark says lesley ann and lizzie says, hi mark. what happens if a theatre says white people only is this not apartheid in all but name? keep those emails coming. lots more to get through and

i'll be tackling the issue of prince harry and his security in the uk at 10:00. in my take at ten. you won't want to miss it, but it's time now for the big story. and the prime minister addressed the nation from downing evening downing street yesterday evening in an unexpected and unscheduled statement about the threat of extremism on british democracy. take a listen . and it is beyond take a listen. and it is beyond alarming that last night the rochdale by—election returned a candidate who dismisses the horror of what happened on october the 7th, who glorifies hezbollah and is endorsed by nick griffin , the racist former nick griffin, the racist former leader of the bnp . well, old leader of the bnp. well, old rishi is not pulling his punches , is he? but was his response about extremism too little, too late? let's get the views of britain's best known political double act, neil and christine hamilton . double act, neil and christine hamilton. neil, are you double act, neil and christine hamilton . neil, are you pleased hamilton. neil, are you pleased to see the prime minister finally address this issue ? finally address this issue? >> i think it's totally irrelevant. you say he's not

pulling his punches. the trouble is he's incapable of punching anything and he's punching at his level, really punching at his level, really punching at his weight . you know, it's just his weight. you know, it's just more and more words. what is he actually going to do about all this political extremism? what's he going to do about the failure of the police what the of the police to do what the pubuc of the police to do what the public overwhelmed , he wants to public overwhelmed, he wants to do take control of our do to take back control of our streets overwhelming streets for the overwhelming proportion of the british public thatis proportion of the british public that is not in favour of these demonstrations . uh, demonstrations. uh, pro—palestine week after week after week . the trouble is, after week. the trouble is, we've got a weak government which has allowed this problem to fester away for years without doing anything about it. even now , he has no serious proposal now, he has no serious proposal to control the immigration problem of this country. and we're not talking about small boats. we're talking about the 1.4 million resident visas that the government issued last year for foreigners to come and live and work in this country. we've added a 6.5 million people to our population since 2010, when

david cameron became prime minister. you know, we've had an unprecedented rise in immigration under this current conservative government and this is the cause of the problem. ultimately we are now in a society because the muslim population is getting to the stage where there's a tipping point where they reach a position where their vote really, really matters. in an election . i mean, george election. i mean, george galloway got 40% of the vote in rochdale on a 38% poll gross that up to general election levels . that in itself is 20 or levels. that in itself is 20 or 25% of the electorate of rochdale. and there are many, many towns around the country like this. i mean, only 36% of the people who live in london, the people who live in london, the whole of london in the last census, um designated themselves as white british, you know, and we have communities living side by side with one another that don't want to assimilate. and this is going to get worse in the years to come. so i want to know, what is the prime minister actually going to do about it?

know, what is the prime minister actlheardioing to do about it? know, what is the prime minister actlheard warm 0 do about it? know, what is the prime minister actlheard warm words bout it? know, what is the prime minister actlheard warm words bout night. we heard warm words last night. we heard warm words last night. we single proposal to do we had no single proposal to do anything all. although neil, anything at all. although neil, you that those coming you can't say that those coming to this country, legal net migration , you mentioned migration, you mentioned the figures. migration, you mentioned the finge. debate the scale, but >> we can debate the scale, but you say that all of those you can't say that all of those people are extremists and you can't all british can't say that all british muslims extremists . yes. muslims are extremists. yes. >> of course not. and >> oh, of course not. and i don't say that at all. but we have no idea who these people are this country. we are coming to this country. we don't their don't know what their motivations we know motivations are. and we know that there is a significant number of extremists who are on the mi5 number of extremists who are on the m15 watch list, about 50,000 or so of muslim extremist on the mi5 or so of muslim extremist on the m15 watch list . and if we don't m15 watch list. and if we don't know who's coming to this country, whether they're legal or illegal, this is a problem which is only going to increase. and if people are going to start voting lines of their voting on lines of their personal identity rather than on their political ideology, this is a problem which is going to become the british become worse in the british political system. i political system. um, well, i tend agree. tend to agree. >> i tend to agree that if the outcome of a by—election is based a war having

based upon a war having happening miles happening several thousand miles away, is a problem for our away, that is a problem for our democracy, isn't it? >> yes, i mean, 72% of muslims in the last general election in 2019 voted labour. so labour is overwhelmingly dependent upon the votes of migrant communities . and, you know, so the labour party will quietly become the spokesman for all these different ethnic groups. well what i'm interested in is, is the majority of this country, um, who are not going to identify themselves by the colour of their skin or their religion or whatever, but people who think themselves as british and values are what we and whose values are what we think as traditional british values and are going to identify with the united kingdom and its interests rather than the interests rather than the interests the countries or interests of the countries or cultures they've come i >> -- >> well, indeed, of course, uh, you know, we have an ethnic population, many are successfully integrated in the country . but as you say, with country. but as you say, with the minister's warning the prime minister's warning about extremism, not all, kristine, is the genie now out of the bottle. i don't know how you could ever police those

so—called peace marches every weekend . the cops are weekend. the cops are outnumbered . outnumbered. >> yeah, the genie is undoubtedly out of the bottle . undoubtedly out of the bottle. and when i saw rishi sunak, we weren't able to watch it live. but when i caught up with what rishi sunak said on the steps of downing street , i had the air downing street, i had the air that was like sleeping that he was like sleeping beauty, he been for the beauty, where's he been for the last hundred years ? he's been last hundred years? he's been asleep, has he not noticed what's when i say 100 years, i mean his what has he not noticed happened on his watch? it's as though he suddenly woken up to this awful reality which is facing this country. and after the next election , assuming the next election, assuming things go according to the way we think they're all going to 90, we think they're all going to go, there will be a very large number. and it's not possible. maybe a psephologist could, but it's possible to put it's not really possible to put a and niels just a number on. and niels just alluded to there will be a alluded to this. there will be a very number of mps the very large number of mps on the labour side who's loyalty is not to this country. it's not even to this country. it's not even to their constituents. i mean, what would george galloway's first words? this is for gaza.

i'm sorry , but rochdale really i'm sorry, but rochdale really is a very poor part of this country , and it needs an mp country, and it needs an mp who's going to say this is for rochdale, for not gaza, but there are going to be a large number of mps whose loyalty is to not this country. it is to their country of origin, or it is to religion. that is to their religion. and that to me is a very, very lamentable state of affairs for us to find ourselves in. and it seems that rishi sunak has just woken up. but it's too late, of course, too late. i'm glad. >> glad you've called rishi sunak the sleeping beauty. although i doubt you'd want to give kiss . um, it's worth give him a kiss. um, it's worth stressing that. yeah. go i stressing that. yeah. go on. i was trying i was trying to think while neil was talking. >> i was trying to think of somebody else, you know? not sleeping. and beauty, who'd been asleep years, but asleep for 100 years, but i couldn't. think it wasn't couldn't. so i think it wasn't a bad one. >> if we're doing if we're doing disney characters. >> christine, if rishi >> christine, i wonder if rishi is dumbo instead . um, listen, is dumbo instead. um, listen, let let me say that, uh, let me let me say that, uh, labour would contend and labour mps would contend and labour mps would contend and labour themselves would

absolutely strongly argue that all of their candidates are focussed on the needs of their constituents and the country first. but of course, you're entitled to your view. um, let's talk about this other story. if we can, following allegations that he flirtatious texts that he sent flirtatious texts to a colleague , red bull formula to a colleague, red bull formula one boss christian horner appeared at the grand prix today and in a very public display of affection, his wife, spice girl geri halliwell, gave him a big old kiss . so great news. look at old kiss. so great news. look at that. look at that . that's that. look at that. that's a that. look at that. that's a that reminds you of your wedding night , doesn't it, that reminds you of your wedding night, doesn't it, neil? >> i could recapitulate that on gb news live. no, no . uh uh, gb news live. no, no. uh uh, listen, let's, uh, let's bring my top pundits into this as well. >> i'm delighted that with us tonight, we have benedict spence, rebecca jane lisa spence, rebecca jane and lisa mckenzie alongside , and the mckenzie alongside, and the hamilton's, uh, first for you, christine. christine? yes so, um, essentially, christine horner denies the allegations. he's been cleared in an inquiry. so he's been found not guilty, but the rumours are that he sent

next.

i'll get to your emails very shortly. you're watching mark dolan tonight. but first millions of people around the world rely on antidepressant medication to get through the day . but do these medication to get through the day. but do these drugs sometimes do more harm than good? beverley thompson is the author of anti depressed , a author of anti depressed, a breakthrough examination of epidemic antidepressant harm and dependence, and i'm delighted to say that beverley joins me now . say that beverley joins me now. hi, beverley, what are the key findings of your book that may surprise my viewers and listeners ? listeners? >> hi mark, thanks for inviting me to talk with you . um, first me to talk with you. um, first of all, i have to say, i do not say people shouldn't take antidepressants . that's their antidepressants. that's their choice. they have a right to take them if they want to. but what i do say is that there should be a form of informed about the potential risks as well as the benefits, which are very few , i have to say. um, very few, i have to say. um, i also have to say when i start to talk about this subject that nobody should ever stop taking antidepressants abruptly . it's

antidepressants abruptly. it's very important . so you're right, very important. so you're right, 1 in 6 people in england , i was 1 in 6 people in england, i was about 8.6 million people take antidepressants and some of these drugs have been on the market now for 30 years. and people have been taking them for 30 years. and we've always trusted our doctors who probably told us that the drugs correct our chemical imbalance as well. recent findings and the debunking of the chemical imbalance theory might have kind of made us question after 30 years of being on these drugs , years of being on these drugs, as some people have. have we been gullible ? have we been been gullible? have we been manipulated ? have we been lied manipulated? have we been lied to about these drugs ? to about these drugs? >> all important questions . to about these drugs? >> all important questions. um, tell me about your concerns regarding side effects for a start, because that's a worry, isn't it? yeah well, side effects are huge. >> worry . and, you know, one of >> worry. and, you know, one of the main things that i always say and people very surprised when i say it is if you read a

patient information leaflet and not many people do read the patient information leaflet when they get a medication and an ssri anti depressant has nearly 200 side effects , nearly 200 200 side effects, nearly 200 that can cause adverse effects. and some of them are very very serious. um there's a couple in particular that , you know, i particular that, you know, i always have to talk to in the first is the increased risk of suicide, which we don't talk about enough. and we need to talk about more because especially with children, children have a double the risk of , of children have a double the risk of, of suicide if children have a double the risk of , of suicide if they are of, of suicide if they are taking antidepressants rather than if they're not. and studies have, have confirmed this. so we need to be very careful. there's something called akathisia which we need to learn more about, which does cause people to have suicide , suicidal ideation . um, suicide, suicidal ideation. um, so there's that and there's some thing else at the moment which

is really, really coming into the media. many people are suffering from something called, um , post ssri sexual dysfunction um, post ssri sexual dysfunction . um, and young people in particular are not able to enjoy sex, are not able to have sex. and this is becoming irreversible. and people are finding that this is affecting their lives in major ways . their lives in major ways. >> well indeed. now do anti depressants work for some people 7 depressants work for some people ? do you have an estimation of what percentage of these medications are helping people ? medications are helping people? >> no, we don't know . medications are helping people? >> no, we don't know. um, you know the placebo trials tell us that placebos work just as well as antidepressants . and what we as antidepressants. and what we find that is in real world trials with real patient sites, they don't work very well at all. so there was a very big study called the star—d trial . study called the star—d trial. and even after four courses of treatment of antidepressants, only 34% of patients actually

responded positively . responded positively. >> um, why do you think the nhs is so keen to hand out these drugs? beverly >> well, you know , i think, >> well, you know, i think, mark, we have to look at the fact that the constant mental health messages that we're heanng health messages that we're hearing nowadays and i'm sorry to say it, that's media as well as the political, political obsession with it, um, have led to the increase in antidepressant prescribing . antidepressant prescribing. >> you know, we're told to get help. we're told to get screened . but for the majority of people, because there are no psychological therapies available, what happens is they're prescribed medication, often unnecessary . billy. um if often unnecessary. billy. um if people are struggling with, uh , people are struggling with, uh, mental health issues, what steps do you think they should take? i think the first thing that a doctor or psychiatrist should do is ask them to wait, because many of the societal issues that

we're dealing with, many of the personal issues are transient . personal issues are transient. life is very fast moving nowadays , and most of the things nowadays, and most of the things that we suffer from , we get over that we suffer from, we get over pretty quickly . and, you know, pretty quickly. and, you know, i think there was a study at brown university in 2006 that showed showed us if we if with no somatic treatment , 85% of somatic treatment, 85% of patients will actually recover within a year. >> now, beverly briefly , lee, >> now, beverly briefly, lee, what would you say to those your critics who would argue that what you're saying in your book and what you've told me just now is dangerous, informed and is dangerous, ill informed and wrong? well everything that i write in my book is evidence based , and i come from one based, and i come from one perspective, and that is to help patients. >> and that is the only reason i wrote my book. you know, we're now at an age mark where we need to become empowered . we need to become empowered. we need more autonomy when it comes to being a patient. the i think the age of doctor knows best is well

and truly over. >> uh, most definitely . and of >> uh, most definitely. and of course, the pharmaceutical company make a lot of money from these medications. it's important to follow the money. >> beverly of course, they make a lot of money from these medications, but not as much nowadays. >> obviously. now we've got the generics, um, as they did when they were. they were prescribing they were. they were prescribing the brand drugs . um, but you're the brand drugs. um, but you're right, it's become a massive industry and what we're what we're seeing is we're seeing these massive industries and the messages that we're sending, they're enabling and allowing governments to fail to acknowledge and address the social, social determinants affecting our lives , which are affecting our lives, which are causing us more happiness and which are causing us anxiety and are causing all the symptoms , are causing all the symptoms, symptoms we associate with bad health. you know, the chemical imbalance theory, mark was a political no brainer . political no brainer. >> mhm. well, there you go. and listen . it's all about listen. it's all about challenging orthodoxies . i challenging orthodoxies. i appreciate your time beverly.

family, his country and the monarchy under the bus just to make a fast buck. it's worth remembering that back in the day, prince harry was one of the most popular royals cheeky party going fun loving, a breath of fresh air. he served in the military. he was one of the boys he liked to drink . military. he was one of the boys he liked to drink. he liked to lady. no problem . i'm a dashing lady. no problem. i'm a dashing young prince with a big future and an inexhaustible well of pubuc and an inexhaustible well of public support. but hooray, harry became the prodigal prince and now many in his own family and now many in his own family and in his home country, will never forgive that devastating oprah winfrey interview in which he and his wife, meghan, effectively accused the royal family of racism , a devastating family of racism, a devastating accusation from which the couple later rowed back by talking about unconscious bias instead. but the damage was done. there was the cringeworthy netflix series when, in one particular scene, harry had to sit there whilst his wife meghan mocked

having to curtsy to queen elizabeth. at that point, even the prince looked embarrassed to be there . now the royals are all be there. now the royals are all celebrities. they are in the front line and they should be able to handle a bit of public criticism and accountability, even if it's friendly fire from the formerly helicopter flying harry. but the book, 'spare' crossed the line. not so much because of its content. it turned out to be a bit tamer than some of harry's previous comments. it was the fact that as she battled poor health in her ninth decade, his grandmother the queen, had to grapple with the knowledge that his book was coming . it was his book was coming. it was hanging over our monarch like the sword of damocles, and this remarkable lady was left with many months of worry about what might be in the book and what damage it might do to a family and an institution to which she devoted her life. some have said that the harry drama hastened

the queen's demise , as we will the queen's demise, as we will never know, to and me that sounds a bit harsh on harry, but it certainly can't have done her health. the power of good and prince harry will have to live with that thought . however, i've with that thought. however, i've personally been very torn on where the prince harry should have full police protection when he's in the united kingdom. on the one hand, why should taxpayers fork out for somebody that's left the country and the institution? he is no longer a working, serving royal, but i don't think it matters. he is one of the most famous men in the world, and whether he's a royal or not, he is an ambassador for this country and he still does good charitable causes. the invictus games . and causes. the invictus games. and he is still a nice and charming guy with a heart. and whilst he has left the royal family and departed, these shores, he was and remains the son of king charles. that is a biological

fact. well, let's hope so . and fact. well, let's hope so. and it wasn't his choice to be born into royalty. it wasn't his choice to be the son of the king. and for that reason , i king. and for that reason, i think he should have equal police protection to his brother william when he is in this country . he couldn't be a more country. he couldn't be a more high profile figure. and unfortunately , like all the unfortunately, like all the royals, harry will be a target for some very bad people. i fear that if, god forbid, anything happened to him or his family, the authorities would have blood on their hands. so no, it's not often that i back prince harry, but on this one he has my support . look what happened to support. look what happened to his poor mum killed in a paris tunnelin his poor mum killed in a paris tunnel in the 1990s with an allegedly drunk chauffeur for a top royal security insider recently told me that diana would still be with us today if she had had top royal protection at that time. so let's not make the same mistake twice . prince

the same mistake twice. prince harry needs full protection and the best we've got. yes, he might be a numpty, but he's our numpty . it's the first nice numpty. it's the first nice thing i've said about prince harry in about 11 years. but i do think he needs royal protection. i know it's irritating. i know it's frustrating. i know it's an insult. how he's behaved . but he insult. how he's behaved. but he did not choose to be the son of the king. what's your view, did not choose to be the son of the kirat what's your view, did not choose to be the son of the kirat gbnews.com. iew, did not choose to be the son of the kirat gbnews.com. let's get mark? at gbnews.com. let's get the reaction now of my top pundits, political commentator rebecca jane, free from the shackles of ukip an independent woman once again allied to no party other than his own journalist benedict spence and fearless broadcaster and official anarchist doctor lisa mckenzie . rebecca jane i think mckenzie. rebecca jane i think that prince harry needs full armed security when he's in britain. what's your view? no um

, you say obviously he didn't choose to be born into the royal family, but he did choose to leave. >> and that is something that comes with being part of the royal family, which is something that he made this big triumph and announcement that he no longer wanted to be part of, and he wanted to go live this he wanted to go and live this lovely, quiet in, in lovely, quiet life in, in america. if he went and america. well, if he went and lived lovely, quiet life in lived the lovely, quiet life in america, he probably wouldn't need that he now need the security that he now claims to need . you know, i claims to need. you know, i don't understand it in the slightest. go and live that little peaceful life that you kept on talking about so much , kept on talking about so much, and get rid of the whole royal family that you saw, apparently despise . now. despise. now. >> well, no , no uncertain >> okay, well, no, no uncertain terms there. benedict spence . terms there. benedict spence. >> i mean, still, i think, >> i mean, he's still, i think, well, fifth in line to the throne . he hasn't actually throne. he hasn't actually stepped away from the line of succession. does remain succession. so he does remain a relatively important part of the royal family in that sense. and i think, you know, especially in the week that we've discovered that there's going to be extra money made available for police

protection certain mps, protection for mps, certain mps, because against them . because of threats against them. i we have to recognise i think we have to recognise actually that there are many pubuc actually that there are many public sadly we've public figures. sadly we've allowed get a allowed ourselves to get to a position many position where there are many pubuc position where there are many public are public figures who are threatened by members of the pubuc threatened by members of the public for various different reasons, and i think prince harry falls that harry probably falls under that category . category. >> you think lisa >> what do you think lisa mckenzie i know you'd rather not have a royal family all, but have a royal family at all, but if you are the son of the king, do need armed cops around do you need armed cops around you ? you? >>i you? i! you? >> i i was going to >> i thought i was going to agree with you tonight. i thought you were going to do a scathing, uh, sort of take on on harry costing his money. and now i find that i'm. you've not done that. i'm a bit disappointed. i was going to agree with you. i was going to agree with you. i was surprised, no, i'm not gonna keep guessing. i know, so keep you guessing. i know, so i'm really disappointed that i can't you, no , can't agree with you, but no, no, he's gone to america . it's no, he's gone to america. it's the best place for him . it's the the best place for him. it's the best place for all of them. actually i think they should all go there. i've said it many times. go and live in the disney castle . wave at people. let the

castle. wave at people. let the americans pay for all of them. i don't want to pay for any of them. are they still ? them. are they still? >> but i mean, does it not weigh on your on your mind and your conscience? lisa, that given his high profile position because of an accident of birth , an accident of birth, unfortunately this guy is a target for some bad people. lisa >> no, it doesn't weigh on my conscience at all because i know that there are other people because of the accident of their birth , they might starve to birth, they might starve to death in the next two years, or they might not be able to put they might not be able to put the heating on and may freeze to death. accident of death. so, you know, accident of birth ways . he gets birth works both ways. he gets the good times. you know, he he's not sort of, uh, 51 weeks of the year, sort of freezing and then comes to england and can't have any free coppers. >> although benedict i mean, i do wonder, you know, god forbid if something happened to harry. and pray that will never and we pray that will never happen. but but if it did, i don't think it would reflect very on the united kingdom very well on the united kingdom as it wouldn't. as a country. no it wouldn't. >> again, also it's

>> and again, i also think it's a bit sort of churlish to a bit sort of churlish of to us say, you turned your say, oh, well, you turned your back on sort of royal duties. therefore you're sort at the therefore you're sort of at the mercy whatever might mercy of, of whatever might happen you and actually , you happen to you and actually, you know, think in the grand know, i don't think in the grand scheme the things scheme of things, the things that spend money on, given that we do spend money on, given the of police protection, the amount of police protection, as already given as i say, that has already given to of people, i don't to a lot of people, i don't think sort of sparing a couple of there when of officers here and there when he's not he's in the uk, which is not very often , uh, is a massive very often, uh, is a massive take out of the out of, out of the personal protection budget. i'm sure actually that they can the personal protection budget. in spared ctually that they can the personal protection budget. in spared from ly that they can the personal protection budget. in spared from other: they can the personal protection budget. in spared from other members of be spared from other members of the family as and when the royal family as and when is necessary . i think that necessary. so i do think that there's a sort it's of there's a sort of it's a sort of quite a uniquely british, quite churlish, sort of penny churlish, quite sort of penny pinching attitude to say, ah , pinching attitude to say, ah, well, you know, that sucks for you. but you're going you. but you're just going to have lump it. i think have to sort of lump it. i think actually we're than actually we're better than that, frankly . frankly. >> w- w— e jane, i think if >> uh, rebecca jane, i think if in is granted police in the end he is granted police protection this country, protection in this country, those coppers will need to be paid double just to with those coppers will need to be pai orouble just to with those coppers will need to be pai oroubmoaning with those coppers will need to be paioroubmoaning and with those coppers will need to be pai oroubmoaning and hiswith all of his moaning and his navalny gazing. but, um, we do we do need to reflect on what happened to his mother, diana.

now a top royal security insider told me recently that if diana had had a proper british police protection, she'd be with us today. protection, she'd be with us today . do we want to make the today. do we want to make the same mistake twice ? same mistake twice? >> right. listen, it's two different stories and also we're talking about protection when he's here in the uk. talking about protection when he's here in the uk . what he's here in the uk. what happened to diana was obviously not obviously here in the uk . not obviously here in the uk. then also we talk about the other. the stance of this is that, you know, when he chose to leave, you're not trying to tell me now that uk police officers are the absolute best in security that i could ever be, he chose to go over to america. he chose to make a commercial life for himself . he could pay life for himself. he could pay for the best security that there is. he's made those decisions. he knew that it was part of the deal he knew that it was part of the deal. when he decided to leave and become this commercial figure, and he's probably not making the money that he thought he was going to make. now he was going to make. so now he's back begging he's coming back here begging for help. know, you made the for help. you know, you made the decision . live or i'll

decision. live with it or i'll tell you what. make amends, go back to your father, say really sorry . shouldn't have left. try sorry. shouldn't have left. try and apology to the and make an apology to the british public, and then maybe and make an apology to the briticanyublic, and then maybe and make an apology to the britican have, and then maybe and make an apology to the britican have your then maybe and make an apology to the britican have your security, ybe and make an apology to the britican have your security, too. you can have your security, too. >> what's your view? >> do you think that harry should have same royal should have the same royal protection as his brother william, he's the united william, when he's in the united kingdom? queen kingdom? coming up, queen camilla gets a well—deserved break. a possible new role for prince andrew. and joe biden has another senior moment or two. we'll get reaction from the queen of us showbiz , royal and queen of us showbiz, royal and political reporting, kinsey schofield. plus those papers are on the way

well, a big reaction to my take at ten. i've caused some controversy by suggesting that i think prince harry should have proper, top level royal police protection when he's in the uk , protection when he's in the uk, the same level as his brother william. why? because it wasn't his choice to be the son of the king. well, the emails are

coming in thick and fast and largely you do not agree with me. peter says good evening mark. if you left gb news, god forbid, says peter , would you forbid, says peter, would you expect them to continue to give you luncheon vouchers? no. you wouldn't. harry left the monarchy , so no more freebies monarchy, so no more freebies for him . i remember luncheon for him. i remember luncheon vouchers weren't they fantastic? bhng vouchers weren't they fantastic? bring them back , i say. peter, bring them back, i say. peter, thank you for your kind words . thank you for your kind words. nick says mark, harry is not a working royal doesn't pay uk tax. he can pay for his own security. he. no, no no , says security. he. no, no no, says james, who's not happy with me. jane says i will never, ever , jane says i will never, ever, ever watch you again . this guy ever watch you again. this guy asked to be a target by his dreadful behaviour . no, he dreadful behaviour. no, he should not have protection . should not have protection. princess diana refused royal protection. janie um, if harry is to be treated equally to his brother whilst in the uk, he must behave according me. he lacks the manners that befit a middle aged man, let alone a prince of united kingdom. prince of the united kingdom. let tell you that you let me tell you that you predominantly with me. predominantly disagree with me. i've got one message of support

from andy says hi mark, i from andy who says hi mark, i agree with your thoughts about prince think he's prince harry, but i think he's been a middle by been placed in a middle by meghan . uh, it meghan markle. well, uh, it's it is, uh, me meghan or your family. and that's his problem. andy thank you for that. thank you for your emails. i love getting them. it's the best bit of keep them coming. of the show. keep them coming. mark gb news. com but first mark at gb news. com but first us news the queen of us news and the queen of american royal and american showbiz royal and political reporting kinsey schofield kinsey. great to have you back on the show. now listen , you were we're not we're not slated to talk about the prince harry story, but, um, i've kind of surprised a few people by suggesting i think he should have royal protection when have armed royal protection when he's in britain. what do you think? >> well , they aren't my >> well, they aren't my taxpayers that are my tax dollars that are paying for prince harry's protection. but i agree with you. i think that he should feel safe and he should feel safe to bring his family back to see his father. if that's case. that's the case. >> listen , let's talk >> well, listen, let's talk about his mother in law, not mother in law. his stepmother , mother in law. his stepmother, kinsey. queen camilla gets a

well—deserved break. tell me more . more. >> that's right. queen camilla has no engagements on her agenda this week, with the times reporting that she will spend a few days of downtime with the king. camilla has been working overtime to support the monarchy just last month, she repeatedly drove over six hours to a royal engagement after her flight was grounded because she reportedly did not want to let down her husband. she will resume engagements on march 11th, representing king and representing the king and leading the royal family for the commonwealth day service at westminster , a source told westminster abbey, a source told the although was not the times. although she was not expecting to find herself in the position leading the family, position of leading the family, the is absolutely prepared the queen is absolutely prepared to to be done to do whatever needs to be done for the institution and can i just say, speaking of harry, i think the fact that queen camilla is seen as leading the family is significant proof that prince harry would not return to temporary support the family because camilla's elevated position is likely not something sitting well with him right now. he loved queen elizabeth the

second. he likely resents the idea of queen camilla and we know that that's a position he felt like his mother should be in. >> most definitely. he was very nasty about queen camilla in his book spare . book spare. >> he. he was so. book spare. >> he. he was so . so i imagine >> he. he was so. so i imagine that the idea of her leading the family is something he has a hard time digesting . hard time digesting. >> there you go. what about, uh , >> there you go. what about, uh, princess kate? i understand that, uh, a big star in america made a joke about her. well you're being very kind. >> big star, 90s pop star. but breast cancer survivor sheryl crow posted a video on x announcing an appearance on jemmy kimmel live! the caption read, i'm going to be on jemmy kimmel live tonight, but where's kate middleton ? in the video, kate middleton? in the video, she's telling a person like a makeup person or something out of , if you speed it of frame, if you can speed it up, kate middleton of frame, if you can speed it up, lunch. kate middleton of frame, if you can speed it up, lunch. kaonlinedleton of frame, if you can speed it up, lunch. kaonline has)n for lunch. reaction online has been mixed, some users were been mixed, but some users were quick to point out the coverage of crow's difficult breast cancer diagnosis and treatment, and asked where her empathy was. remember, there were rumours

that lance armstrong had broken up with her over her breast cancer had to have been cancer that had to have been hard tabloid fodder for her to consume someone else tweeted, i thought you were dead and you're here asking about katherine. i guess the lesson is think before you tweet. except i haven't thought of sheryl crow in 20 years, so maybe mission accomplished . accomplished. >> go. let's >> there you go. let's hopefully, it as hopefully, uh, put it down as another years to come before another 20 years to come before we talk about again . we talk about her again. >> what about princess >> um, what about princess katherine? know she's katherine? do we know how she's doing? a right to doing? do we have a right to know about her health at all? kinsey >> well, to according the times, we did hear about princess katherine this week. she told page six here, here in the states . her representative said states. her representative said she's doing well . we're not she's doing well. we're not giving any more updates, but according the prince according to the times, prince william finding the level of william is finding the level of social media commentary around his family challenging as of late. i'd like to something late. i'd like to say something that it's none of your that he can't. it's none of your damn business, mark. it's none of business. princess of of my business. the princess of wales and her team stated very clearly that privacy was all they asked for until easter , and

they asked for until easter, and this is a hot take. but harry and meghan have spent four years over sharing and it's warped. our expectations of real working royals versus the montecito reality stars. harry's book, their netflix whinge fest and meghan announcing her miscarriage in the new york times. that is not the type of behaviour we can expect from working members of the royal family. so to quote my least favourite disney movie, let it go, katherine is the definition of strength. stoicism never complain, never explain. you will not find her doing the media rounds looking for sympathy over this mystery ailment. and that is why one day she will be queen. >> speaking of somebody that would like to be queen, but likely only the queen of hollywood , meghan markle, who hollywood, meghan markle, who has made a new appointment. tell me more . me more. >> oh my goodness. to continue with the 666 harry and meghan relaunch slash rebrand. according to page six, meghan has hired adele as stylist who will hopefully in turn introduce

meghan to a steamer and a tailor. if i'm being honest, according to lauren sherman, who got this scoop quote, markle needs to make money and sharpening her look could be the first step in something bigger. not only should she be gunning for endorsements , but i wouldn't for endorsements, but i wouldn't be surprised if she was keen to develop her own fashion line. i hope she develops some spanx knockoffs like kim kardashian. she could call them spanx or princess panties . princess panties. >> you're on fire tonight. somebody that, sadly is not on fire is the leader of the free world. that joe biden has another senior moment. alistair i think you've got a clip. do you want do you want to talk us into this clip? do you know the clip that's coming? kinsey >> i mean, well, i should, but there are so many gaffes these days, i think. >> i think this one pertains to his confusion about geography. yes >> on friday coming days, we're going to join with our friends and jordan and others from providing air drops of additional food and supplies into ukraine. okay so for those

that weren't fully concentrating , what did he do in that clip? >> what went wrong? >> what went wrong? >> yes. so this was yesterday. he confused gaza with ukraine twice as he announced that the us would provide additional aid to is. this is not to palestinian is. this is not a hot topic of conversation in the state. 65% believe the israeli hamas war is important to them , hamas war is important to them, and 59% of americans believe the war between russia and ukraine is important. according to a pew research centre. so this is not necessarily, you know, on everybody's minds. however. over the weekend, comedian bill maher gave a blistering monologue on biden's age, saying the president walks like a toddler with a full diaper. >> oh dear. at what point do you think the penny will drop that this guy is not well enough mentally to be president ? mentally to be president? >> you and i have been for talking two years about how michelle obama might step in, and we're just now seeing some of those stories circulating in mainstream media. i'd say any day now. >> wow . listen, kinsey, always

>> wow. listen, kinsey, always the highlights of the weekend having you on. we'll catch up in a week's time. my thanks to the queen of us showbiz, royal and political reporting kinsey schofield. her schofield. check out her brilliant di for brilliant website to di for daily the podcast of the daily and the podcast of the same . next up, the papers same name. next up, the papers with full pundit reactions. see you into

years promising us dragons. oh they're coming, they're coming, years promising us dragons. oh they're coming. they're coming, years promising us dragons. oh they're coming. and 're coming, they're coming. and it got further then by further and further. and then by the came , the show the time they came, the show wasn't interesting anymore. the time they came, the show wasn't what interesting anymore. the time they came, the show wasn't what these ;ting anymore. the time they came, the show wasn't what these ;tingcuts more. that's what these tax cuts basically are for the tories. they've been saying tax cuts are coming. are coming, coming. tax cuts are coming, but they're do they're not actually going to do anything they come. anything for you when they come. they're not going to be very large. i mean are sort large. i mean here we are sort of fighting £0.02 tuppence. of fighting over £0.02 tuppence. it's make it's not going to make the blindest difference if it blindest bit of difference if it actually and even actually does come in. and even if bring in tax cuts, if they do bring in tax cuts, it's too late now for people to feel change in pocket, feel the change in their pocket, which they which is actually what they would not tax cuts that would vote on, not tax cuts that they you've they would say, look, you've been been in power been in 14, you've been in power for why have done for 14 years. why have you done it beforehand? they're going to say, to know whether or it beforehand? they're going to say,i to know whether or it beforehand? they're going to say,i feel to know whether or it beforehand? they're going to say,i feel wealthier whether or it beforehand? they're going to say,i feel wealthier nowther or it beforehand? they're going to say,i feel wealthier now thanyr not i feel wealthier now than i did the start of the did at the start of the parliament, it's hard to parliament, and it's hard to find feels even on find anybody who feels even on parity they the parity with how they were at the start parliament. but start of this parliament. but lisa mckenzie, if you cut taxes, you're to have the economy you're going to have the economy growing, for growing, which is more money for the schools, for the nhs, for schools, for policing rest of policing and all the rest of it. >> always that. >> see, they always use that. but that's not. and as but that's that's not. and as benedict there's nothing benedict says, there's nothing going quick here. going to be quick here. i mean, if they taxes and even if

if they cut taxes and even if that that model did work, which there's not any evidence he does because, uh, trickle down has never worked . it's there's never never worked. it's there's never been any evidence that it works. but even if it did, you're looking sort of 2 or 3 years, four years into the future before anybody would actually feel it . and that's not, you feel it. and that's not, you know , it's not going to happen . know, it's not going to happen. >> but isn't this about tax cuts for ordinary working brits? i agree with you. i don't think the billionaires getting richer really helps any of us, as long as they stay uk and spend as they stay in the uk and spend their money but nurses, their money here. but nurses, doctors , other people, people doctors, other people, people that work in education like you, surely they could with a few surely they could do with a few more in their pocket. and more quid in their pocket. and that's would deliver. >> we do, but we do >> well, we do, but we do deserve money because we've had, um, paid disparity for a long time. >> but , but time. >> but, but these sort of time. >> but , but these sort of little >> but, but these sort of little bits of tax cuts here and there is not going to it's not going to what we it to do. you to do what we need it to do. you know, the moment live in a know, at the moment i live in a city that is now bankrupt. right now that is what people are talking. >> that's nottingham.

>> that's nottingham. >> yeah, we're actually bank roped, which means the services are cut to the bone. so so if the tories want to do something then perhaps looking at, um local services actually might be a better vote winner. >> well, what do you think about this, rebecca? jane, i know you believe in low tax in principle. can the country afford them like you've both just said? >> i don't think it's going to make the blindest bit of difference right now . and, you difference right now. and, you know, if we look at the express headlines, tax or loose headlines, cut tax or loose gravel , that's not going to gravel, that's not going to swing a grey vote for you. what'll swing a grey vote is actually if you sort out the nhs, you sort out crime and you actually, well , you know, actually, well, you know, immigration dare i say it, there is, you know, we have a lot of these headlines about there is record spending in the nhs . yes. record spending in the nhs. yes. the problem is not the money and where it's coming from, the problem they know how problem is they don't know how to because they don't to spend it because they don't have what have a flipping clue what they're i nearly they're doing. and i nearly swore where it's swore it's well, it's where it's

after the watershed it's after the watershed and it's saturday knocking . saturday night knocking. >> my mother would kill me. >> my mother would kill me. >> to said, though, >> it's got to be said, though, if talking about winning if we're talking about winning back grey vote, ultimately, back the grey vote, ultimately, what things would what are the things that would really right really benefit the country right now? kick now? what would really kick start like start growth? things like building, actually able building, actually being able to building, actually being able to build first place, build things in the first place, that growth, that would help growth, things like prices, would like energy prices, that would really actually really help growth. but actually housing would help. although it won't down prices. but won't bring down prices. but we do shortage. but energy do have a shortage. but energy is the other thing. and actually what the thing stops us what is the thing that stops us from things? it from having these things? it tends grey it tends to be the grey vote. it tends to be the grey vote. it tends to be the grey vote. it tends to people at a tends to be older people at a local level opposing from local level opposing things from being and i'm afraid you being built. and i'm afraid you get the country deserve get the country that you deserve and what we will have this and what we will have in this country, we have had for country, what we have had for a very long time is people who say, i like idea growth. very long time is people who s like like idea growth. very long time is people who s like the idea growth. very long time is people who slike the idea idea growth. very long time is people who slike the idea ofea growth. very long time is people who slike the idea of houses. wth. i like the idea of houses. i like idea of all of these like the idea of all of these things. just want them things. i just don't want them near me. just don't want near me. i just don't want anything do me. i don't anything to do with me. i don't want a new water reservoir near me because might, know, me because it might, you know, affect might affect affect my view. it might affect the of my and that the value of my house. and that ultimately damper on ultimately is the damper on growth. so it's all very well if, if people if, if older people were actually for actually inclined to vote for

lower then fine. but lower taxes, then fine. but that's going that's not going to fix. >> there are lot i mean, i've >> there are a lot i mean, i've got to say that are i've got to say that there are i've spoken a people spoken to a lot of people recently that recently who are pensioners that weren't in the tax bracket. and over last year or two, over the last year or two, they've fall they've actually started to fall into tax bracket. so into the to the tax bracket. so i think they have noticed that. but but but lisa, do you not accept that high taxes are killing the economy at the moment? >> we've got anaemic growth. haven't we? the economy needs a tiger in the tank. it needs a kick start. i think if there's a choice between a housing policy that delivers decent housing for everybody or small tax cuts, i think the country would go for the housing and that's where i, that's where i think one of the difficulties that we have with thatis difficulties that we have with that is though, whilst we have a policy that this government has of mass migration on the scale that we do, it's actually not going to solve the problem because we will catching because we will only be catching up demand that we're up to the demand that we're already in. up to the demand that we're alresoy in. up to the demand that we're alreso we in. up to the demand that we're alreso we can in. up to the demand that we're alreso we can have the policy of >> so we can have the policy of building houses, which we do building new houses, which we do need to do. but if you're then

just anybody from just saying to anybody from around can afford around the world that can afford to not even to live to buy a house, not even to live in, potentially as a speculative asset, and it, that asset, come and buy it, that doesn't solve problem ehhen >> t- t— t you go. let's have >> there you go. let's have a look if i may. look at this story, if i may. rebecca in the sunday rebecca jane in the sunday times. widely prescribed times. why widely prescribed anti—anxiety linked to anti—anxiety drug linked to hundreds of deaths this is a powerful medication widely prescribed for anxiety behind the fastest rising death toll of any drug in the uk. this is according to an exclusive investigation by the sunday times. doctors and coroners have raised concerns about, uh , i cry raised concerns about, uh, i cry goblin. oh. thank you. well done for saying you help me out. that's a bit fuzzy. highly addictive. uh, 8.6 million prescriptions in england in 2022. do you think that these anti anxiety drugs, antidepressant drugs, do more harm than good? >> um, i'm not a fan of anti depressants. i do think that they've got a place though. obviously the lady we had on earlier, she really wound me up right now. >> this was uh, beverly beverly thompson. >> i was sat here absolutely livid. um, because antidepressants do have a place,

and you're talking to somebody who was addicted to them for 18 months. i'd been on them for five years. it took me 18 months to off them. so i don't to come off them. so i don't recommend them for myself. however they absolutely have a place with people. >> help at the >> did they help you at the beginning? yeah. and i don't think hadn't think i'd be here if it hadn't been them because as much as been for them because as much as they, you know, antidepressant acts are there numb you and acts are there to numb you and not to feel any emotion or anything all. anything at all. >> that's not good thing, >> and that's not a good thing, because that's only going to help better for help you to get better for a very short space time. you very short space of time. you really need to kind of go through understand through it to understand why you are are. are the way that you are. there's of people who need there's a lot of people who need to that numbness to feel that numbness for a penod to feel that numbness for a period time, because they are to feel that numbness for a pe sod time, because they are to feel that numbness for a peso much me, because they are to feel that numbness for a peso much distress.use they are to feel that numbness for a peso much distress. and:hey are to feel that numbness for a peso much distress. and what re at so much distress. and what really concerned me was when she said that you know, what would you say to somebody who was struggling time ? oh struggling and give it time? oh my goodness , i was so angry my goodness, i was so angry because i deal with so many people who are suicidal in my obviously mental health clinic. if you tell somebody who's at the absolute depths of despair, give it time . um, and within

give it time. um, and within a year things will be better. nobody wants to hear that when you're absolute crisis point. so don't give it time. >> go straight to your gp. >> go straight to your gp. >> i don't. well and again, i don't really advocate for the nhs services. what would you say samaritans. what would you do. no no i actually think that the best thing you can do is to try and help yourself educate, research, education and all the rest of do think that rest of it. i do think that antidepressants have a place if you are at that of despair you are at that depth of despair , but i think there can be an absolute lifeline and we shouldn't it. but shouldn't be ashamed of it. but but above all else, i think the one thing that helped me was education and a different type of therapy . of therapy. >> benedict hear everything >> benedict i hear everything that rebecca say with that rebecca had to say with respect to and sympathy. however, you do wonder whether the nhs dole out these antidepressant medications , antidepressant medications, anti—anxiety drugs like they are smarties. >> they do and the problem is that we treat medication as sort of a one size fits all thing, whereas actually every human being is different and will react in different ways to different psychoactive

substances, which is what they are designed to affect your head and your nervous system and your and your nervous system and your and your nervous system and hormones and the and your hormones and the chemical balances your body. chemical balances in your body. that necessarily going to that is not necessarily going to respond same way respond the same way for everybody . the are not everybody. the doses are not necessarily going for necessarily going to work for everybody. them everybody. people are on them for long. it is very true for too long. it is very true that people can become very dependent them. thing dependent on them. one thing that has not necessarily been addressed needs be addressed, but needs to be increasingly, is the capability of these things. if you're on them for too long to cause psycho this if you come off them too quickly. and that is something is not addressed. something that is not addressed. but actually what really concerns we now, concerns me is that we are now, as we're in a position as you say, we're in a position now nhs doles now where the nhs just doles them because told them out because we're told we're health crisis. we're in a mental health crisis. that's normal. well, that's not normal. well, actually, not normal at actually, this is not normal at all. teenagers, all. children and teenagers, this the level of mental ill health in this country is not normal. we should be looking normal. and we should be looking to address causes of it. you to address the causes of it. you should be looking create should be looking to create healthy, healthy and healthy, mentally healthy and robust adults robust children and adults rather than waiting for them to hit a crisis point and go hit a crisis point and then go pills, pills . pills, big pills. >> fantastic. think >> fantastic. don't you think that the nhs or ors we're doling

out these pills because it's actually cheaper than the alternative, which i don't think it is. >> i don't know, the pharmaceutical, the pharmaceutical, the pharmaceutical companies do. >> but building strong, resilient communities and people takes money, resources, and it's easy to get great time. >> it does. but i think that that's such a problem with this country is the lack of long tum , country is the lack of long tum, um, planning, because that is more expensive in the long tum. and we're seeing this right now with the economic crisis that we're had addressed we're hitting. had we addressed some on, it some of this earlier on, it wouldn't us quite so wouldn't be costing us quite so much. it's the exact much. i think it's the exact same thing this. i think it same thing with this. i think it might in the short might be cheap in the short terme to dole out pills, but actually, i think long terme, you an lot you could save an awful lot of people and therefore by extension a lot of working hours, of all sorts of hours, a lot of all sorts of things, a lot nhs resources things, a lot of nhs resources would it's not simply would be saved. it's not simply the cost of the pill that we're talking. i mean, listen, what the cost of the pill that we're talkinga i mean, listen, what the cost of the pill that we're talkinga i nof n, listen, what the cost of the pill that we're talkinga i nof toughen, what the cost of the pill that we're talkinga i nof tough love,|at the cost of the pill that we're talkinga i nof tough love, lisa? about a bit of tough love, lisa? >> are there people, young people have been people at school who have been told that if they're just having a that's an a tough day, that that's an illness that actually

illness and that actually younger people you mentioned sort robust, do we need sort of being robust, do we need to young people to be more to teach young people to be more resilient? not forget that resilient? let's not forget that in war, german in the second world war, german bombs were raining over liverpool , coventry, birmingham liverpool, coventry, birmingham and london. people didn't have pills to pop. they got on with it. >> i've got a it.— >> i've got a lot it. — >> i've got a lot of it. >> i've got a lot of sympathy though, with the younger generation because if there's one thing didn't have one thing that i didn't have growing social media growing up was social media constantly telling me that i was wrong or i was right or i was ugly, or that you're beautiful. yeah and that sort of level of, you know, being bullied at school. were school being school. you were at school being bullied. now you can be sat at home it constantly coming home with it constantly coming through. do have some through. so i do have some sympathy for young and sympathy for young people and their mental health. i think that the social media is not helping anybody. but don't you think be the way think education will be the way so is, is struggling so a youngster is, is struggling and actually the teacher and perhaps, i don't know, a faith leader or a family friend just sits down and just says, leader or a family friend just sits you down and just says, leader or a family friend just sits you know, and just says, leader or a family friend just sits you know, life just says, leader or a family friend just sits you know, life is st says, look, you know, life is difficult and you're going to have your way have to navigate your way through anymore, have to navigate your way through do anymore, have to navigate your way through do you anymore, have to navigate your way through do you ? anymore, though. do you? >> no, not quite. >> no, no, not quite. >> no, no, not quite.

>> and it's not just about resilience . yes. our kids are resilience. yes. our kids are not as resilient as what they need be, but it's about the need to be, but it's about the need. nobody teaches adults need. nobody ever teaches adults , let alone children, how to understand and themselves why they are the way that they are, why they the beliefs that why they have the beliefs that they that's the thing that they are. that's the thing that fixed me you know, god fixed me after, you know, god knows how years of mental knows how many years of mental illness. if we illness. and actually, if we start and teach kids start younger and teach kids that stuff and actually ask them what would help you with your mental health, we probably wouldn't have mental health wouldn't have the mental health crisis got . crisis that we've got. >> lots more >> well, look, folks, lots more to get through, more papers to come, front pages, my come, more front pages, and my punst come, more front pages, and my pundits will nominate their headune pundits will nominate their headline back page zeroes. >> plus, are you addicted to mayonnaise? see you
