2:05 am
as much as black women under inclusion policies, i'd say white men need more consideration. >> no , but, yeah, she's >> no, but, yeah, she's basically saying that a lot of this stuff, this diversity, a lot of this, there's a lot of money in it. >> and it's arguably a waste of money. this is what some studies are showing that it's not leading to the desired, desired outcomes. cases is outcomes. and in some cases is backfiring. and also in terms of focusing on, like, for example, white working class men who seem to done by, well, to be pretty hard done by, well, certainly white working class boys are not showing particularly good educational attainment or so on at the moment. >> that seems to be a genuine worry that nobody's very keen to talk about. mean, this isn't talk about. i mean, this isn't a new it? we've new thing, though, is it? we've had, bias testing and had, implicit bias testing and so on for quite some time seem to be on endlessly cycling through methods to try and address that is address something that is resilient . resilient. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> i mean, there are things like unconscious bias, which if you get psychologist talking about get a psychologist talking about it, move it, might mean something, move it, might mean something, move it sociologist of it into a sociologist and all of a sudden waste of time,
2:06 am
a sudden it's a waste of time, so things i don't so those things i don't necessarily with, i think necessarily agree with, i think there's much fascinating there's so much fascinating detail within this subheadline. so consideration so white men need consideration as black women. you can as much as black women. you can argue about the much, but the argue about the as much, but the idea that both groups need consideration interesting. consideration is interesting. but aren't. this one. but white men aren't. this one. one homogeneous lump. no one single homogeneous lump. no if you are from a privileged background, well, some of them are. yeah, i some of them. yeah. they can't wait to me to be honest. but some are so honest. but some of them are so privileged. honest. but some of them are so pria leged. honest. but some of them are so pria privately educated you to a privately educated you stand a darn chance of stand a darn good chance of running country if you. running the country if you. >> something i've said >> this is something i've said previously. you know afua previously. do you know afua hirsch? guardian hirsch? she's a guardian commentator, i ghanaian commentator, i think ghanaian born but born or half ghanaian, but privately educated at wimbledon school, went oxbridge and now school, went to oxbridge and now writes columns about diversity and on the guardian and and so on in the guardian and they make me bristle with indignation because she has had vastly more privilege than i have, for instance. and i suspect that neither of you you're still upset that you didn't get in. >> i definitely beat her. >> i definitely beat her. >> of course, allowed >> but of course, she's allowed to about these things , but to write about these things, but the is that she the implication is that she knows she speaks. this knows whereof she speaks. this is the thing i agree with you.
2:07 am
wealth, privilege, wealth, power, privilege, a stable family. things are privileged. >> class still dominates. >> class is still dominates. >> class is still dominates. >> exactly. you know, and the endless attempt. and i'm grateful . yes. thank you. grateful. yes. thank you. >> but the. then there's a question about discrimination as to why you would find more people of ethnic backgrounds in the poorer groups. yeah. you look at that. but instead of looking at that as the second issue, don't look at issue, we don't look at it first. yeah think about race first. yeah think about race first and somehow say, no, first. yeah think about race first groupomehow say, no, first. yeah think about race first group is|ehow say, no, first. yeah think about race first group is suffering, no, this group is suffering for discrimination it's discrimination reasons. no, it's because poor because you're from a poor background , you're white a background, you're white from a poor you're to poor background. you're going to suffer as well. >> becomes grift. the >> it becomes a grift. but the fact the fact is, coming from the equalities her job. and she's basically saying >> and she's basically saying this is not the answer. >> and is also raised up >> and she is also raised up a white man by marrying him as well, unworthy scot, well, a poor, unworthy scot, i believe, has been mr badenoch, who was him. yeah, absolutely. anyway, we wish her well . anyway, we wish her well. obviously our next prime minister, let's move on to the metro, steve. >> first, cyber flasher jailed. this is a man who sent naked images of himself to a 15 year

2:11 am
20 and their own. they regain their independence at 40. now, basically, you're still in the midst usually of birthing them at 40. >> well, yeah, but i want to be like you. i want to have given up. yeah. >> that's why that's the stage i relax into it. that's what i would is it's not a midlife would say is it's not a midlife crisis, just because they're unhappy. different crisis, just because they're unhappy. but different crisis, just because they're unhappy. but midlifeferent crisis, just because they're unhappy. but midlife crisis flavours, but a midlife crisis are and are very specific thing. and it's completely it's it's not to be completely it's a real . yeah, it can be real phenomenon. yeah, it can be miserable. and it miserable. and what it essentially amounts is essentially amounts to is a dawning really dawning awareness, a really quite awareness that quite gnawing awareness that your options have narrowed, that you've made choices and, and, and there was a time when every choice you made seemed to open up a couple of new doors. >> but maybe this is then maybe because they're all they because maybe they're all they all going die all think they're going to die in 15 years. in about 15 years. well actually, they could right. actually, they could be right. >> that risk. but we >> yeah. and that risk. but we have thing about mental have another thing about mental health the young. have another thing about mental heabut the young. have another thing about mental hea but carry young. have another thing about mental hea but carry on ung. have another thing about mental hea but carry on just to attack have another thing about mental heaistory. rry on just to attack have another thing about mental heaistory. they're|st to attack have another thing about mental heaistory. they're blamingack this story. they're blaming social someone social media because the someone in blaming social in america keeps blaming social media all the time. media for it all the time. there's a evidence there's not a lot of evidence that looks this. you can find that looks at this. you can find that looks at this. you can find that there's an with using that there's an issue with using instagram impacts
2:12 am
instagram that impacts the mental young girls. mental health of young girls. there's data to back there's very little data to back the rest of it up. it's just that young people use it a lot and they're miserable. well, that young people use it a lot and trwhat?niserable. well, that young people use it a lot and trwhat? theyible. well, that young people use it a lot and trwhat? they also well, have guess what? they also can't have phone phone ownership guess what? they also can't have ph

2:14 am
it's officially called , the bbc. it's officially called, the bbc. we will see you shortly
2:15 am
2:16 am
2:17 am
break. and welcome back to headliners with me, simon evans. gb funny boys, josh howie and steve n allen are on call, so we're going to dig into the meat of the stuff. now we kick off with the stuff. now we kick off with the guardian and a story about gaza food aid , one of geldof's gaza food aid, one of geldof's less popular festivals. josh un says israeli restrictions on gaza food aid may constitute a war crime. >> so they're talking here about a potential famine. now, to be very clear , israel is stating very clear, israel is stating that twice the amount of food is going in than before october 7th. so the issue isn't about food going through, it's about the food being processed. and it's about there's 300,000 civilians or gazans, but civilians, including hamas, are
2:18 am
in outside of rafah, up in the north, which is which has been split and i think the issue seems to be about getting that aid to them. and that is a war zone. so the problem is that the un, has an agenda. some of the un, has an agenda. some of the un, there are different parts of the un. it's a large organisation. an unrwa part of the is arguably a wing of the un is arguably a wing of hamas. there are un members who took part in october so took part in october 7th. so there obviously is an issue here, but it's just saying that it's israel's fault, i don't believe is the case because hamas has been proven to take this food and then not distributing it. >> it's difficult, steve, isn't it, that the un's credibility does seem to be somewhat compromised on this because it's there's there's no foreign there's no there's no foreign journalists at journalists really in there at the moment, certainly no the moment, or certainly no british ones that we know and recognise trust. recognise and trust. >> the thing you >> well, that's the thing you need. stats. you need the need. the stats. you need the data this, they? data for this, don't they? i suppose one way would be to have some of how much some sort of measure of how much food going in that food is going in that is reported and recorded somehow . reported and recorded somehow. then that would, be
2:19 am
then that would, that would be recorded. well but the well, the ipcc measuring level of , ipcc is measuring the level of, hunger to be close to famine. i know, but but the point is that but the food is going in and there's capacity. israel there's over capacity. so israel saying can put as much food saying you can put as much food as bnng saying you can put as much food as bring it all in. as you want, bring it all in. it's nearly double the amount that went in before october seventh. so the problem isn't getting the food in. it's getting the food in. it's getting the food to people. getting the food to the people. and then goes via hamas, that and then it goes via hamas, that seems. it be i understand and then it goes via hamas, that seeidoubling it be i understand and then it goes via hamas, that seeidoubling itt be i understand and then it goes via hamas, that seeidoubling it since understand and then it goes via hamas, that seeidoubling it since before tand the doubling it since before october the 7th, but did they have an internal supply before october the 7th? >> it's been wiped out or was there? we're not talking there? no, we're not talking about. okay. all the about. no. okay. so it's all the same. comparing like with same. we're comparing like with like continuing on the like continuing on to the scottish daily express, celebrated prig humza yousaf has it in for comedians to quote every article ever. this is no laughing matter. >> yep , so laughing matter. >> yep, so this is, humza yousafs dangerous in quote marks hate crime, bill will target actors and comedians. so no, in answer to those questions, i will not be doing edinburgh this
2:20 am
yean will not be doing edinburgh this year, so it's they've leaked some details of the training that police scotland are getting, and apparently cops that police scotland are gettibe and apparently cops that police scotland are gettibe allowediarently cops that police scotland are gettibe allowed toently cops that police scotland are gettibe allowed to arrestops will be allowed to arrest comedians they are reported comedians if they are reported for communicating threatening or abusive material. yeah, because we live in the time we live in. people will definitely report if they don't like it, they will report, that found it report, say that they found it already reporting it just already been reporting it just to of the venues and to the owners of the venues and so on. yeah, but now they know you can call the and say, you can call the police and say, oh, threatened by oh, i, i felt threatened by this joke. thing know, it'll joke. next thing you know, it'll be arrested this new be arrested under this new legislation comes in legislation which comes in on april is perfect, but april 1st, which is perfect, but it's comedy. ever there's it's comedy. you if ever there's an area where you should be allowed to say something that you may may not mean, you you may or may not mean, you should be able to satirise or lampoon. >> i mean, reality being >> i mean, the reality of being a stand comedian is that a stand up comedian is that there's a mix of balance. there's always a mix of balance. some spontaneous some tend to be more spontaneous and others to and ad lib, and others tend to be more on and i'm quite be more on rails. and i'm quite hold hand up and say i hold my hand up and say i generally speaking, roughly generally speaking, know roughly what say when i go what i'm going to say when i go on stage. you've to have on stage. but you've got to have the to just, like, blurt the freedom to just, like, blurt something and, you something inappropriate and, you know, fail. yeah, exactly.
2:21 am
know, and fail. yeah, exactly. yeah. the audience kind yeah. and have the audience kind of you, well, that wasn't of tell you, well, that wasn't very yeah. know, very funny. yeah. you know, and then can't try get then you can't like, try and get it it's conversation with the >> it's a conversation with the audience find each audience and you find each other's this other's levels. but this is obviously, very concerning . the obviously, very concerning. the what's maybe even sadder, though , is that i don't think many comics will fall foul of it the way that comedy's been going over the last however many years is that it doesn't push boundaries. doesn't boundaries. it doesn't antagonise people, which personally is what i enjoy doing with my set. and so i think a lot of comics can be very safe. following back from, have following back from, we have someone sadowitz who someone like jerry sadowitz who did push line, seeing what did push the line, seeing what happened and his literal happened to him and his literal cancellation to happened to him and his literal can
2:22 am
taken a stand at that point, people would followed him people would have followed him and they didn't. >> afraid you're and >> i'm afraid you're right. and i say that i also would say that the edinburgh seems be edinburgh fringe seems to be intent shooting as intent on shooting itself in as many parts of its own many different parts of its own foot can. i mean, foot as it can. i mean, obviously rent is a massive deal now, as a result of now, and that's as a result of snp legislation, which may have been intentioned, it been well intentioned, but it seems have killed the sort of seems to have killed the sort of subletting people subletting market that people relied and, and the i mean, relied on and, and the i mean, the other thing that's happening in the edinburgh fringe, which i will just mention is the because it's relevant here, the degree which is perhaps natural thing which is perhaps a natural thing over of a long over the course of a long running festival to which power is consolidated in a is being consolidated in a handful of very successful venues , is, very successful venues, is, very successful agencies taking up a number of acts. they will have the money, the power, the, you know, to vet essentially, and to drill to and this is going to hit any kind of, well, i think committed that are outside of it. yeah. >> can you just say just on this story, this hate crime bill has been disagreed with by some performers, including the right wing hate pedlar mr
2:23 am
wing firebrand hate pedlar mr bean, actor rowan atkinson. yeah, so if he's against it. always been very good about. >> no, he is good. be interesting to see what frankie boyle has to say about it. onto the telegraph. noted distributors of misinformation have apologised for doing what they do best. yeah >> bbc apologises for calling the party far right. so the reform party far right. so this is leader richard tice. he says he's very pleased , and he says he's very pleased, and he says he's very pleased, and he says it was a tactic to smear the party. and arguably you can't really deny that that that is true . obviously this is part is true. obviously this is part of a wider movement where anybody within on, the left of the spectrum would sort of say anything is far right that disagrees with their ideology . disagrees with their ideology. >> well, they would certainly. i mean, i suppose they say the reform party probably would characterise itself as broadly to so to the right of sunak. so i suppose that is far right. >> suggests neo—nazis. >> suggests neo— nazis. >> suggests neo— nazis. >> absolutely >> suggests neo—nazis. >> absolutely . and hard >> yes, absolutely. and hard right does as well, doesn't it, in a way that hard left and far left never seem to. >> well, i think people are waking up to particularly how toxic left is. yeah but toxic the far left is. yeah but you know, like if you, if you
2:24 am
want a male rapist, if you don't want a male rapist, if you don't want male rapists in female jails, suddenly far jails, suddenly you're far right. know, there's right. you know, there's this kind like, want to kind of like, if you want to control immigration, you're far right. yeah. and this has been something kind been something that's kind of been pushed . and now. but pushed through. and now. but when comes through the bbc, when it comes through the bbc, which to impartial, which is meant to be impartial, that's lies, that's where the danger lies, because take that forward because people take that forward and they go, oh, respect. and they've got 14% of the vote supposedly the moment in supposedly at the moment in the latest they're just latest polling, they're just behind. >> t“ w- e is it. i mean, >> well, this is it. i mean, there different ways you can there are different ways you can talk don't talk about it. i certainly don't think but think of them as far right. but then remember when the then again, i remember when the tory party would have regarded their their core their most of their their core manifesto as being fairly core tory know, but if tory values, you know, but if there is that feeling, everyone has that a lot of stuff has shifted to the left. the centre ground seems to be huddled ever closer around a handful of liberal orthodoxies. liberal left orthodoxies. >> not like the >> yeah, it's not in like the recent couple of months or years. i mean, the phrase swivel eyed around in, eyed loons was around in, the david cameron am david cameron era, but i am going to disagree with your analysis of this story. the phrase far right was used by the
2:25 am

2:28 am
christmas. >> yeah. they argue that it's trying to increase inclusivity and it won't do that either. i guarantee you no one's ever turned up to king's cross and thought, won't get on that thought, i won't get on that train they've said train because they've not said anything whitsuntide. anything about whitsuntide. no we invite. you we don't need an invite. you presume train, so focus presume it's a train, so focus on trains. try and do that. on the trains. try and do that. right? sometimes when on the trains. try and do that. rigigo sometimes when on the trains. try and do that. rigigo ofometimes when on the trains. try and do that. rigigo of tube mes when you go in front of tube stations, they've written like inspirational quotes on the little you little billboards. sometimes you get quite get that. that's always quite nice. but yeah, i agree with you. do well, it you. either do it well, do it for all religion or don't do it for all religion or don't do it for it or for all religions, or do it or just it. yeah, but you just don't do it. yeah, but you can't all they've of can't do all they've kind of said, oh do do it for all said, oh we do do it for all religions. i go through kings cross a lot. i've never seen that that board ever. that before on that board ever. and no one's put up any photo evidence personally and no one's put up any photo evide that personally and no one's put up any photo evide that they're ersonally and no one's put up any photo evide that they're ersonall'bit think that they're being a bit like, of stuff like, yeah, we do loads of stuff and they're not basically telling after the fact. >> well, let's see transpires. >> and i think, by the way, it's good that we're kicking up a stink. go, oh, look stink. people go, oh, look at you. you're big hoo ha you. you're making a big hoo ha about it. yeah. look, let's just let no, we have let things happen. no, we have to. religion was to. whatever the religion was putting, we putting, being put up there, we have kick stink because
2:29 am
have to kick up a stink because hopefully learn the hopefully they'll learn the lesson it. we're lesson and stop it. we're a liberal seventh day liberal democracy. seventh day adventists on liberal democracy. seventh day advi replacement on liberal democracy. seventh day advi replacement services. on liberal democracy. seventh day advi replacement services. it's bus replacement services. it's not fair. >> but you're right. secular values weakly defended values are often weakly defended because it's assumed that they have consensus. have arisen from a consensus. unlike christianity, which, you know, maybe point had to know, maybe at some point had to have few people burnt at the have a few people burnt at the stake everyone stake before everyone knuckled down. but yeah, we've made down. but, but yeah, we've made ourselves very weak and vulnerable to , to stronger, you vulnerable to, to stronger, you know, more forceful and aggressive that's aggressive ideologies. that's the fear as an atheist. >> where's my card? >> where's my card? >> yeah, i will sort one out for you, steve. onto the telegraph. now, 1 5 prisoners as now, 1 in 5 muslim prisoners as we stay with islam is white, which is. well is the is it is the halal lunch really the best opfion the halal lunch really the best option ? is that what it is? option? is that what it is? >> well, no, i don't know if it is. i sort of. so, yeah. 1 in 5 muslim prisoners is white amid fears that gangs are fears that islamic gangs are driving conversions. so this is, ministry justice data. it's ministry of justice data. it's the time ever the first time they've ever managed religion and managed to combine religion and ethnicity. and yeah, 20% were white. about 3000 people. and
2:30 am
there's quite a few interesting elements to this, because there was a report last year which , or was a report last year which, or two years ago actually saying that different like muslim terrorists had like taken control of wings and they actually even, had their own shana actually even, had their own sharia court and, and that prison staff were basically concerned about racism . where concerned about racism. where have we seen that before? so they weren't fighting back about this stuff. and they're saying that possibility that there's this possibility that, white prisoners are that, some white prisoners are going in and it's a way of getting protection. yeah but they of this is one my they kind of this is one of my favourite articles, which basically undermines itself at the they oh, by the end where they go, oh, by the end where they go, oh, by the half of those 3000 were the way, half of those 3000 were actually from albania. and albania muslim country. actually from albania. and albania muslim country . so, albania is a muslim country. so, so, it's probably 10% of it. so, so it's probably 10% of it. and there probably is some truth to it. but i will say there's another thing here. 15,000 muslim prisoners are in jail with only, which is 18% of the jail population . there's only jail population. there's only 6000 muslims. so we're talking three times the muslim population. mean, the, you population. i mean, the, you know , more likely to make rise. know, more likely to make rise. well, just say those are
2:31 am
well, i'll just say those are facts. white man trying facts. typical white man trying to over everything, to take over everything, running out this section. out of time in this section. >> certainly. with us >> certainly. but stay with us after have after the break. we'll have damien hirst
2:32 am
2:33 am
2:34 am
>> welcome back to the second half of headliners onto the telegraph . now with the story. telegraph. now with the story. preaching to the choir. except the choir has been replaced with accounts of the state drill collective , cambridge college collective, cambridge college scraps. church choir to make way for more diverse musical genres. i'm not posh, so i don't know if it's saint john's college or maybe saint john's. you never know with these people. do you know with these people. do you know john's cindy yu know saint john's cindy yu john's and it will be john's college and it will be cut the numbers of cut down on the numbers of chapel firstly, you chapel services. firstly, you get diversity adding two get diversity by adding two rather away, as rather than taking away, as a general i suppose. if general rule, i suppose. and if ever there should be a place for stuffy, boring, outdated performances, bland. it's performances, that's bland. it's a cambridge college, isn't it?
2:35 am
that's what it should be doing. and let's do the this wouldn't happen other way round happen the other way round argument that might argument because that might have some it. don't get some legs on it. you don't get the academy in brixton the o2 academy in brixton cancelling performances the o2 academy in brixton can yeah,|d budget cuts and. think maybe. >> yeah, it'sudget cuts and. think maybe. >> yeah, it's thiset cuts and. think maybe. >> yeah, it's this is:uts and. think maybe. >> yeah, it's this is nowand. think maybe. >> yeah, it's this is now the yeah. yeah, it's this is now the one of the articles where they basically themselves one of the articles where they bathe lly themselves one of the articles where they bathe lly bit themselves one of the articles where they bathe lly bit where themselves one of the articles where they bathe lly bit where they selves one of the articles where they bathe lly bit where they go, es in the last bit where they go, oh, saint john's voices were sounded in 2013, opposed to sounded in 2013, as opposed to the sir john's , the long standing sirjohn's, college choir, which is the one that's been going for hundreds of years because it was it was men only before they had to rebrand you. and other one rebrand you. and the other one has gone women. yeah. i mean, how more diversity want how much more diversity you want there let in now. yeah.
2:36 am
>> so but this is going to start releasing acapella christmas songs like flying pickets something. >> acapella, >> it's like no acapella, ramadan . ramadan. >> acapella ramadan songs. >> acapella ramadan songs. >> and it feels like a doo mashup. >> i want to hear on to the metro. now. it turns out being a miserable, censorious , po faced miserable, censorious, po faced neo—marxist scold is linked to unhappiness . yes. unhappiness. yes. >> it's crazy. yeah, being woke is linked to unhappiness , is linked to unhappiness, anxiety and depression, study finds this is quite a confusing article. it's, it's based in a study in finland where they. so he's trying to sort of apply it to america. but he asked the reason it's confusing is, first of all, obviously woke is a very fluid time and it means different things to different people. certainly far away from its original and i would say noble intention of being aware of racial inequality and whatnot. it's moved way whatnot. and it's moved way beyond now, into, to my beyond that now, into, to my mind, fascism . but they asked mind, fascism. but they asked a bunch of questions to a bunch of young people, and the questions themselves seem very contradictory because it sort of
2:37 am
saying here that, university reading lists should include fewer white or european authors . fewer white or european authors. this would be like a sort of. >> decolonise. yeah theory. >> decolonise. yeah theory. >> but then it says one of the questions is trans women who compete with women in sports are not helping women's rights, which would arguably an which would arguably be an anti—woke . so all of anti—woke statement. so all of these things that they have as woke statements that i would say , well, yes, but they're just not that you all have to answer. >> yeah, always universally. yes. get the yes. otherwise they get the idea. are all these idea. but these are all these are triggers. are all triggers. >> not mostly a's, mostly >> it's not mostly a's, mostly b's. surveying cosmo. >> it's not mostly a's, mostly b's. sticks surveying cosmo. >> it's not mostly a's, mostly b's. sticks outsurveying cosmo. >> it's not mostly a's, mostly b's. sticks outsurv all1g cosmo. others. >> yeah. no, you're right, it does. but generally speaking, it's like, cultural it's about things like, cultural appropriation . and can a member appropriation. and can a member of a privileged adopt of a privileged group adopt features cultural elements of features or cultural elements of a group and so features or cultural elements of a yes, group and so features or cultural elements of a yes, there group and so features or cultural elements of a yes, there are|roup and so features or cultural elements of a yes, there are allp and so features or cultural elements of a yes, there are all the|d so on? yes, there are all the different facets of the woke coin, it's just count coin, and it's just you count them suppose this is why them up. i suppose this is why this wastes much time this article wastes so much time defining woke. defining the terms woke. >> actually don't need >> and actually you don't need the word you actually the word because you actually just the values in the just look at the values in the survey. the survey. ignore the word the survey. ignore the word the survey if you survey says. basically, if you are , paying attention to
2:38 am
are, paying attention to cultural you're more cultural injustices, you're more likely to be depressed. it's just demographics. old people who bought a house for a grand are now it's worth a million. they tend to just bottle up the emotions so you'll never find out it in the survey. and out about it in the survey. and but well, me finish the but well, let me finish the other. side of it is other. the flip side of it is that the young people about that the young people talk about anxiety time, and it anxiety all the time, and it will manifest itself more. >> is >> yeah, i think there is definitely epidemic of young definitely an epidemic of young people who have an elevated sense of fairness or unfairness. you know, we all know that kind of feeling of hot tears, of injustice burning your cheeks. you know, it's not fair. this has been weaponized and activated to a monstrous extent at a time in history. it's nothing to do with the fact that they can't buy a house for £1,000. it's to do. it's the irony. the paradox is that there has never been a time in history when opportunity was more widely distributed, when legal rights were more widely and uniformly
2:39 am
protected. yeah. all of the things which people see are the results of the universe not being fair, and yet they feel that they are living in an era when one unfairness, that is, thatis when one unfairness, that is, that is a recipe for mental illness, that is a recipe for disaster, but also your point. >> your point explains why they should be happy. this survey looks at the fact that they have anxiety. and i think if you spend your life more spend your life paying more attention to rather than attention to anxiety rather than another who rather not another group who rather not bottles it necessarily, but bottles it up necessarily, but doesn't fixate on it, it will manifest itself in your life more. see i've got a different theory that they're all stupid . theory that they're all stupid. >> you need they all finished coddling of the american mind, which i recommend on an almost monthly this show. the monthly basis on this show. the wednesday guardian now and damien famous pickles are damien hirst, famous pickles are not quite the vintage he had suggested. steve. so the formaldehyde animals they some some of these works were dated in the 90s. >> they've been on display but they were actually made in 2017, according guardian who's according to the guardian who's gone they've done an
2:40 am
gone in on this. they've done an investigation on the investigation exclusive on the front page. exclusive because the don't care , the other newspapers don't care, and that their and how do they know that their data, formaldehyde. data, they're in formaldehyde. they kept fairly well they would have kept fairly well anyway. no, looked anyway. but no, they've looked into these didn't even into it. these works didn't even exist dates that are exist before. the dates that are on artwork are put there on the artwork are put there because that's when the. this is conceptual art . so it's the date conceptual art. so it's the date when it was concepted. >> and yes , i mean, i'm just >> and yes, i mean, i'm just playing devil's advocate. i think there may a grain of think there may be a grain of truth to that. it's a little bit like saying, old is this like saying, how old is this sonata? it's not like the sonata? well, it's not like the cd, is it? it's like the cd, is it? it's not like the violin. it's when it was composed. an idea whose composed. it's an idea whose artwork? i'm that artwork? which i'm not that fond of. sort a set of of. it is sort of a set of instructions, really. there we are of the shark. and are of the of the shark. and it's like, imagine shark in a it's like, imagine a shark in a tank full of formaldehyde. it doesn't really if it's doesn't really matter if it's the same one. doesn't really matter if it's the but1e one. doesn't really matter if it's the but the ne. doesn't really matter if it's the but the interesting thing is >> but the interesting thing is that there's what that they there's this what they're saying that they they're saying here is that they were told to the people they're saying here is that they weremade told to the people they're saying here is that they were made tstuff) the people they're saying here is that they weremade tstuff)ti2017,)ple they're saying here is that they were made tstuff) ti2017, were who made the stuff in 2017, were told age it are okay to make told to age it are okay to make it look and actually to the point where it was commented on and seen as sort of being a bit worse for wear. yeah. and the
2:41 am
stuff actually does degrade quite so it is a quite a lot. anyway so it is a little bit weird. i don't really understand why he would do it. it's a very conscious decision. maybe he just wanted to put more of his art out there, create it and sort of say, but that's the old i'm focusing old that's not what i'm focusing on but i can still make on anymore, but i can still make a bit of money out of it. i don't know, stuff he made in the 90s is worth more than stuff he's now. so he can make he's made now. so if he can make it like it's from the 90s, it look like it's from the 90s, this is his best days were this is 90. his best days were in can all share in the 90s and we can all share that we? that feeling, can't we? >> infuriating. had to >> infuriating. i've had to throw know, about 3 or throw away, you know, about 3 or 4 jars various pickles 4 jars of various pickles recently 90s just going recently in the 90s just going up and up on to the and up and up on to the sun and doctors what's up and up on to the sun and doctoron what's up and up on to the sun and doctoron here. what's going on here. >> god. oh dear , this this >> oh my god. oh dear, this this story just goes on and on, doesn't it? mystery havana syndrome, mystery, mystery. havana deepens havana syndrome. mystery deepens as victims symptoms are real and profound. but don't show up in brain scans. so this is the long covid story that we had. the other day. okay, well, it's not the best at all. but essentially , between 2016, cuba long cuba. yeah. 2016 to 2018, lots of,
2:42 am
staff in the us consulate, had quite serious medical effects. and, and people have been trying to study this for a while. they're sort of saying it could be russia, it could be some kind of mike directed microwave , but of mike directed microwave, but they've never fully identified what is. and this article what it is. and this article here just basically says, yeah, it's real, but we've got no evidence . it's real. evidence. it's real. >> so there's no new news. yeah, it's still going on. it's all still going on. >> done brain scans. >> they've now done brain scans. they've done scans and they've now done brain scans and they found out that there's no physical the body. so physical impact on the body. so actually leads towards actually leads you towards thinking but on a thinking mass hysteria. but on a smaller group that if you are working under these conditions and so on, suggests to you, people who work here often have a bad thing, whether they hear sounds be manifest that sounds that may be manifest that way. there's nothing physically wrong. >> i do remember the gulf war syndrome, which was a thing similar exposed similar to being exposed to sheep wasn't sheep dip, wasn't it? if i remember rightly, there was a particular chemical had particular chemical that had been and they been used or something, and they they decades trying to they spent decades trying to prove had actually prove that it had actually made them can be incredibly
2:43 am
them ill. it can be incredibly frustrating people. joking them ill. it can be incredibly frustraif1g people. joking them ill. it can be incredibly frustraif they people. joking them ill. it can be incredibly frustraif they are)ple. joking them ill. it can be incredibly frustraif they are convincedg aside, if they are convinced they have something and they're not getting taken. >> be hearing too >> might be hearing salsa too much . much. >> yeah. % now and the >> yeah. telegraph now and the debate on how we debate continues on how we should cover transgender women. personally, recommend personally, i recommend a tasteful choker, gloves and a good quality wig , justin webb good quality wig, justin webb from the bbc and the trans rail causing meltdown. what happened was he's on radio four's today programme. they're talking about the issue. he says trans women, in other words, males. boom. that's it. too much that triggers some people. you know what they like. they complain straight away. >> any person. >> any person. >> person. yeah. person. >> any person. yeah. one person. very complaints >> any person. yeah. one person. very does complaints >> any person. yeah. one person. very does what1plaints >> any person. yeah. one person. very does what the ints >> any person. yeah. one person. very does what the bbc does and bbc does what the bbc does and goes, i'm sorry . yeah. and goes, oh, i'm sorry. yeah. and then itself that then beats itself up that, that finding him guilty of it gave giving the impression of endorsing one viewpoint upset people. they complained . oh people. they complained. oh because this is what it's like one person complains. and so this is a situation where because of the use of english language, where male is somehow
2:44 am
unked language, where male is somehow linked to sex and gender, and people are trying to separate the issues, but the words you use don't let you know which part of those two different ones you're using. >> is always though. >> this is always feel though. you're even handed. you're being very even handed. i appreciate both towards appreciate that both towards trans people and also the bbc, but do you not feel that this confusion between what was five minutes ago perfectly well delineated vocabulary suits one agenda rather better than the other? that they are deliberately creating a the shifting sand whereby you can no longer stake out your territory and go trans women, which, for the benefit of older listeners , the benefit of older listeners, we mean males who are identifying as women. that is as close as anyone can get and yet know that even that will be know by a fact. >> i think that would have been fine. i actually would reading the thing that he trans the thing that he said trans women, words, males. women, in other words, males. it's just that left a gap. if it's just that he left a gap. if he would have said biological males surely could have males, surely no one could have touched if he'd have said touched him. if he'd have said the that you said, no one the words that you said, no one could have heard.
2:45 am
>> is biological terms. >> male is a biological terms. it's not a gendered terms. well, then, biological word that's. and defend i and you have to defend that. i know you're going. oh and know what you're going. oh and then thinking if someone then no, i'm thinking if someone said is logos, this is what said this is logos, this is what civilisation is built on. the ability communicate using ability to communicate using words that have meant things for thousands years . thousands of years. >> i'm i'm sticking to this issue of male isn't a gendered terms , is what you've said? no, terms, is what you've said? no, of course it's not. >> it's a sex terms. it's a biological sex terms. >> then i'm asking you to describe just using describe someone just using their still their gender. you'd still use their gender. you'd still use the word wouldn't no the word male, wouldn't you? no i would say men, but i would say trans. >> were talking about >> if we were talking about including men and trans i including men and trans men. i don't it. i'm against it. >> yeah, but i was thinking, even if you are not, that word has a specific meaning. >> male means biological. >> male means biological. >> could i say that there's a few things to this story and i agree with simon is. but. but the reason what the story is really about is that senior journalists at the bbc have got very upset about this. they see and he and women female and as he and women female journalists have sort of basically bunch of
2:46 am
basically written a bunch of letters, he himself has basically no other basically said there is no other agenda here. i'd say that justin webb, you're welcome to join gb news. can call trans women news. you can call trans women mail much you want. that's good. >> we'll be back in a moment for the final section. peppa pig is up on the slab, consumed by hate as our actual snakebite bites. better than narcotics. and the problem with rimming? i can't believe we'll be covering it, but we'll see how i manage to navigate
2:47 am
2:48 am
2:49 am
