force and two lifeboats, attended the scene just before lunchtime time. and officers are trying to establish exactly what happened.the trying to establish exactly what happened. the victim , we happened. the victim, we understand, has non—life threatening injuries. the dinghy was one of eight small boats that reached uk shores today on the busiest day of channel crossing so far this year, with a record 450 migrants arriving. that takes the total number of migrants coming to the uk illegally this year to nearly 4000. meanwhile, passage of the government's flagship rwanda bill is now delayed until after easter, when mps will have to vote again after several votes against it by the house of lords. today, our political edhon lords. today, our political editor, christopher hope, has the latest in the house of lords. >> tonight, peers have voted to say that migrants can only be sent to rwanda when all the measures in rwanda treaty have been satisfied, and that could take a while. another amendment passed by by peers here, passed by by the peers here, says the bill must have due regard for international law. and the ping pong protest and so the ping pong protest continues. the government continues. but the government is very clear it will ensure it

will try and force this measure through parliament to ensure that flights can take off. it rolls now , probably till rolls on now, probably till after easter when we expect another battle between the commons and the lords. >> chris hope there . let's bring >> chris hope there. let's bring you up to date with events in wales. can bring you some wales. i can bring you some breaking news developments from the minutes in wales. the last few minutes in wales. we understand new labour we understand new welsh labour leader gething has been leader vaughan gething has been sworn in as first minister of wales . he, of course, succeeds wales. he, of course, succeeds mark drakeford, who resigned yesterday after holding the position since 2018. mr gething was elected as the welsh government leader by members of the senate earlier on today. he's expected to form a cabinet in the next few days. meanwhile, in the next few days. meanwhile, in ireland, leo varadkar has announced he's stepping down as prime minister. the 45 year old says he's recognised and resigned as the leader of the fine gael party immediately , and fine gael party immediately, and will stay on as taoiseach until his successor is chosen. mr varadkar became the first openly gay man to lead the irish

>> if labour wins the next election, you will be made a lot poorer by a dangerous climate fanatic with a track record of disaster . in fanatic with a track record of disaster. in my view. ed miliband remember him well, yes. he will become one of the most important people in the country. the energy minister with a big majority backed up by a load of 20 something year old kids behind him on the labour benches, obsess with going green. he will be able to do whatever he wants. here he is calling for an acceleration towards net zero only yesterday, and i want to make the case for acceleration. >> above all, i think there is a stark election choice. labour's case, which i'm going to make today for climate action as the route to lower energy bills and security good jobs and doing our dufies security good jobs and doing our duties by future generations against a conservative party which is slipping from climate delay into denial, which will mean higher bills, energy insecurity, fewer jobs and betrayal of future generations.

>> so let's look at what ed wants and what that means for you today . it wants and what that means for you today. it was wants and what that means for you today . it was revealed he you today. it was revealed he wants to bring back the boiler tax under the measures boilers makers are set to be fined if they fail to meet certain targets for heat pump installations. manufacturers will charge you more. a heat pump can cost as much as £12,000. labour will probably subsidise that so your tax will go up. what they don't tell you is that a trial found that 81% of homes fitting a heat pump needed a new cylinder, and 93% needed a new cylinder, and 93% needed new radiators , so you needed new radiators, so you will have to pay for that as well. oh, and you'll also have to insulate your home. and even when you've done that, when it gets into minus temperatures, your energy bill could be £50 a day. he wanted launch a £28 day. he wanted to launch a £28 billion green energy plan, which laid but scrapped because it was unworkable and unaffordable. he somehow managed not to get sacked or forced to resign over that. sacked or forced to resign over that . well, mr miliband still that. well, mr miliband still wants that £28 billion, which

should be a huge concern for everybody because he simply does not care about wasting public money. in fact, he is probably the most expensive policy maker in british history. he was the cabinet minister in gordon brown's government and put forward legislation committing britain to an 80% cut in co2 emissions. international cost estimates put it at over £1 trillion. he was responsible for labour getting into bed with just stop oil. he brought dale vince into the party's bosom, literally being okay with climate fanatics there. mr miliband pushed for no new oil and gas licences that cost labour support with the unions. so you could argue that he's quite bad at politics as well, although we already knew that, didn't we? because after he aned didn't we? because after he knifed his own brother in the back, he unveiled his stone tablet of pledges. like a socialist moses only to get a kicking at the general election and pave the way for jeremy corbyn to lead the labour party. >> these six pledges are now carved stone .

carved in stone. >> the edstone, by the way, in case you're wondering where it is, was last seen at a pub garden somewhere around the chelsea area. seriously what a legacy. he pushed for labour to commit to the national grid being carbon free by 2030, which is apparently impossible. yesterday, the national grid is apparently impossible. yestethat, the national grid is apparently impossible. yestethat it he national grid is apparently impossible. yestethat it couldtional grid is apparently impossible. yestethat it could notal grid is apparently impossible. yestethat it could not possibly said that it could not possibly hit net zero until at least 2035 a week ago. he said that he would lift the de facto block on onshore wind farms at the stroke of a pen. so if you live in a rural area with a nice view, you can wave goodbye to that. it's completely pointless anyway, just today our national grid shows that we got almost as much energy france as we did energy from france as we did from gas and nuclear from wind, gas and nuclear leading the way. everything this man has touched has either been an expensive disaster, reversed, unworkable , or deemed to be unworkable, or deemed to be impossible to achieve, he might say he's a dreamer. well, he'd be an absolute nightmare for your bank balance. let's get the thoughts now of my panel. i am joined this evening by the

director of the popular conservatives, mark littlewood. i've got businessman and activist adam brooks and author and journalist rebecca reid. i'm just going to ask you, mark, do you think that ed miliband might be quite a dangerous eco fanatic ? >> 7- >> he 7 >> he clearly is. >> he clearly is. >> he clearly is. >> he set it out pretty clearly. patrick the if you think the conservative government's been a bit wacky on net zero and i do if labour forms the next government, they're going to double down pretty much the tories have binned. i mean they've postponed but they've basically binned this boiler tax and nuts. there's and it is nuts. there's a complicated ratio about if you were going to install more gas boilers , you've got to install boilers, you've got to install a certain number of heat pumps. so let's imagine you need a new gas boiler. it may well be the manufacturer says to you sorry mate, you're going to have to wait we've installed wait until we've installed a heat pump for mark littlewood. so we're to get queues, so we're going to get queues, backlogs even if backlogs and the rest. even if you we need to you believe we need to decarbonise and there's a separate argument about that. this way to do it. this is not the way to do it. governments banning things and mandating things is not a

successful way to reduce co2, even if that's a priority for you. >> yeah, the reason why i'm getting so exercised about this is we have to look at what's probably going to happen at the next probably to next election, probably going to be large labour be quite a large labour majority. a lot of their candidates appear to be in their early to mid 20s. from what we can gather, they i would imagine are probably signed quite are probably signed up quite heavily this eco agenda. then heavily to this eco agenda. then ed miliband can come forward and do all of the things that he's wanted to do for quite a while. and as far as i can tell, adam, a lot of those things are going to make us all a heck of a lot poorer, 100. >> this this idea that our bills are going to be lower because of renewables and in the future, it's fantasyland. our bills are going go up under a labour going to go up under a labour government. that's certain . government. that's for certain. it's not for certain. it is for certain. >> not for certain. you >> it's not for certain. you don't know. i don't know. you can't say things for certain. it's not okay to say on it's just not okay to say on television that's certain when it's that is it's anyone, anyone that is invested in this net zero,

future cannot be trusted in my. >> in my view, the science does not back up that anything that we in country, whether we do in this country, whether it's electric cars it's heat pumps, electric cars or , or, you know, ulez schemes or, or, you know, ulez schemes is going to alter the climate or the world temperatures one bit. it's fantasy land. it's a way to control us. it's a way to tax us. and this is going to get turbocharged under a labour government. >> rebecca, i can see you massively opposing that. >> go on. i just think we have to be so careful when we say things like, certainly when things like, certainly when things are not certain or provable. i understand why you've got to those conclusions, but those are still opinions. you can't say something as certain provable. certain when it's not provable. a economists are saying, a lot of economists are saying, but on this, some are, but focusing on this, some are, some aren't. not certain. some aren't. it's not certain. and of people in the uk, and 71% of people in the uk, according to yougov, do support net now that's not to say net zero. now that's not to say that want zero 2030. that they want net zero by 2030. i of people accept i think a lot of people accept the is an unrealistic the 2030 is an unrealistic stretch goal, 2035 feels reasonable. probably a compromise two 2050 reasonable. probably a conthe mise two 2050 reasonable. probably a conthe tories, two 2050 reasonable. probably a conthe tories, for two 2050 reasonable. probably a conthe tories, for the vo 2050 reasonable. probably a conthe tories, for the for2050 for the tories, 2030 for the for the labour. i think 2040 feels

reasonable, but the majority of people in this country do want net zero to happen. so there is a reason that both parties are attempting this with a reason that both parties are attenpolicies. this with their policies. >> i there is also a >> i think there is also a reason why when you take opinion polls like that, you get the results like yeah results like that. yeah >> yeah. no, that's exactly i this is the difference this is the key difference between a stated preference and a preference . if you a revealed preference. if you ask people do you carbon ask people do you want carbon net zero? say yes . as if net zero? they'll say yes. as if you could wave a magic wand and bnng you could wave a magic wand and bring about most people, as bring it about most people, as if they understand but if if they understand it. but if you to say, are you happy you start to say, are you happy to on a foreign holiday to never go on a foreign holiday again, or wouldn't be never again, or it wouldn't be never going i mean, are you happy going on? i mean, are you happy to these sacrifice the to make these sacrifice the sacrifices to get to net sacrifices needed to get to net zero very meaningful, and zero are very meaningful, and unless those are into the unless those are built into the question asking whether question simply asking whether you like net zero as a concept doesn't really get, i think perhaps perhaps i trust in perhaps i perhaps i trust in people's intellectual capacity more than you do. >> i think people aren't stupid. >> i think people aren't stupid. >> they don't have to be stupid. they're you want net they're asked, do you want net zero? actually have they're asked, do you want net ze delve actually have they're asked, do you want net ze delve into actually have they're asked, do you want net ze delve into whetherally have they're asked, do you want net ze delve into whether they're e to delve into whether they're willing cost for it. willing to pay the cost for it.

and terms of is your energy and in terms of is your energy going to get cheaper or not? well, ed miliband thinks it's well, if ed miliband thinks it's going cheaper, don't going to get cheaper, we don't need anything. we need to subsidise anything. we don't government don't need government intervention. the intervention. well, you do the market a way of market will find a way of producing it. >> market will be upfront >> the market will be upfront costs, will provide that. costs, equity will provide that. >> can provide me with >> if you can provide me with cheaper through, cheaper energy through, i don't know something know wind turbines. something else. do it and else. fine. get on and do it and invest in that technology. you're not. >> one of the other points >> not one of the other points though, as well as well. we'll come second. but one come to you in a second. but one of other points that of the other points that miliband does have a miliband is that he does have a track record of the things that he's doing, not coming to he's doing, either not coming to fruition. im not buying it fruition. im not buying into it himself with old electric himself with the old electric car thing, which i believe he now has sorted. that now has actually sorted. that was you know, or was nice of him, you know, or actually polled because actually getting polled because it and it was too expensive and unworkable guy it was too expensive and unworbeile guy it was too expensive and unworbeile off guy it was too expensive and unworbeile off leash. iuy it was too expensive and unworbeile off leash. but could be let off the leash. but look, miliband himself won't look, ed miliband himself won't even how we're going even answer how we're going to deal the and solar interm ittency. intermittency. >> you know what's going to happen the gas power happen if we shut the gas power stations, lights are going stations, the lights are going to this is unachievable. stations, the lights are going tois this is unachievable. stations, the lights are going tois fantasyhis is unachievable. stations, the lights are going tois fantasyhis is unaciandible. stations, the lights are going tois fantasyhis is unaciand it's. it is fantasy nonsense, and it's going taxpayer and going to cost the taxpayer and the the pocket. going to cost the taxpayer and the but the pocket. going to cost the taxpayer and the but this the pocket. going to cost the taxpayer and the but this is:he pocket. going to cost the taxpayer and the but this is thisocket. going to cost the taxpayer and the but this is this is ket. going to cost the taxpayer and

the but this is this is what >> but this is this is what people fear. i understand that people fear. i understand that people might want labour people might want to vote labour because, well, they might just support but support labour, of course. but they think tories have they also think the tories have been a complete shower and the tories a complete tories have been a complete shower. that is shower. and all of that is absolutely fine. do they absolutely fine. but do they also going to also know that they are going to get what that means get this guy and what that means for bills? for their bills? >> i think that labour >> i mean, i think that labour also track record of when also has a track record of when ed things that also has a track record of when ed feel things that also has a track record of when ed feel terribly things that also has a track record of when ed feel terribly sensible.at don't feel terribly sensible. they him going they stop him from going any further them. hasn't further with them. he hasn't actually done any these actually done any of these things. think they want things. i don't think they want to anybody at moment. i to sack anybody at the moment. i think keeping things think they're keeping things calm not calm and sensible. i'm not suggesting think this is suggesting that. i think this is the solution. big the perfect solution. i'm a big advocate of nuclear power because it is clean it would advocate of nuclear power becau usit is clean it would advocate of nuclear power becau us towards|n it would advocate of nuclear power becau us towards|n it iandd move us towards net zero, and it is option. so we is a very sensible option. so we need be having a sensible need to be having a sensible conversation. what to conversation. but what seems to happen immediately we happen is immediately when we try about it, people try and talk about it, people just go to ignore it all, shut it no sacrifices, it all down. no sacrifices, no compromises. it all down. no sacrifices, no compcleaner. it all down. no sacrifices, no compcleaner air. people want want cleaner air. people want better their children. better lives for their children. people to able to have a people want to be able to have a safe for the future. safe world for the future. >> would you not want do you >> but would you not want do you not reasonable to try not think it's reasonable to try to shut guy who has to shut a guy down who has consistently persistently consistently and persistently floated ideas that consistently and persistently floatebeen ideas that consistently and persistently floatebeen rubbished ideas that consistently and persistently floatebeen rubbished byzas that consistently and persistently floatebeen rubbished by pretty|t have been rubbished by pretty much people?

much loads of people? i mean, also, wrapped around also, he wrapped his arms around just stop oil. we talk a lot, don't about extremism don't we, about extremism and politics i politics and all of this. i don't think this gets spoken about you know, ed about enough. you know, ed miliband than happy miliband was more than happy for dale vince to give money to the labour welcome him into labour party to welcome him into the party. labour party to welcome him into the yeah, party. labour party to welcome him into the yeah, that'sy. labour party to welcome him into the yeah, that's absolutely >> yeah, that's absolutely right. single right. i can't think of a single policy ed policy area. i agree with ed miliband this is hugely miliband on this is hugely expensive. know, i think expensive. you know, i think virtually everybody an virtually everybody is an environmentalist . that's not the environmentalist. that's not the question. wants question. everybody wants cleaner better planet cleaner air and a better planet for our children. question for our children. the question is, way to go about is, is this the way to go about it? and get it, get that without. i'm highly without. and i'm highly sceptical. hugely . sceptical. this is hugely. >> media are painting >> and the media are painting one picture if you buy an one picture that if you buy an electric car, you get a heat pump. the temperature going pump. the temperature is going to down around the. to all settle down around the. what the scientific nonsense? >> i don't think anyone's suggesting overnight, suggesting that overnight, if everybody car everybody gets an electric car in pump, everything in a heat pump, everything is fixed. countries fixed. of course, countries that are massive are are pumping out massive do are this problem the climate this problem changes the climate in the world. >> is about 1. >> it is about 1. >> it is about 1. >> we're 1% can still >> it is about 1. >> we're1% can still make a difference. and also we are what we should be world leaders. we should be what people should be leading what people do. that not a luxury do. but but is that not a luxury view have from someone who is

view to have from someone who is maybe comfortable most maybe more comfortable than most people know and if we get people you know and if we get a labour government and they do want to ahead with this is want to press ahead with this is it not reasonable to actually say they're going say at some point they're going to look, from to have to look, dorothy from number and say, number 42 in the eye and say, you what, sorry, we made you know what, sorry, we made you know what, sorry, we made you pay you know what, sorry, we made you pay seven grand, by the way. >> rest it >> we subsidise the rest of it for pump. we didn't tell for a heat pump. we didn't tell you put new you that you had to put new radiators in. we didn't tell you that also had to insulate that you'd also had to insulate your didn't you your house. we didn't tell you that. didn't tell you that that. we didn't tell you that when gets to minus six, that when it gets to minus six, that you're still to up you're still going to end up paying you're still going to end up paying a day for your paying £50 a day for your energy. but honestly, we're world leading now. the chinese don't care, i care, i care about the planet, and i care about the difference we can make. >> cannot pressure >> and we cannot put pressure on other countries to do these things if we don't do them ourselves. if we want to see improvement, improvements. mean, a number improvements. conjure nean, a number improvements. conjurenean, that a number to conjure with is that many more hypothermia to conjure with is that many more in hypothermia to conjure with is that many more in iunitedermia in the united in the united kingdom every year than die of climate kingdom every year than die of clima'about climate change kingdom every year than die of clima' lookt climate change kingdom every year than die of clima' lookt

he joins me live with his exclusive insight and you will never believe the response he got to this question today from a woke fire rescue boss. >> unfair advantages white people have in your force. >> basic question but up next, in the head to head, a government report says woke diversity, equality and inclusion schemes are a waste of money and don't work has the relentless focus on diversity been bad for britain? broadcaster benjamin butterworth and youtuber pearl davies? they do battle and that's next. stay tuned

don't miss lee anderson's blistering takedown of a virtue signalling council chief in parliament. that's coming up. but right now, it's time for our head to head . the scourge of head to head. the scourge of equality, diversity and inclusion training ravaging our institutions. eddie, for short , institutions. eddie, for short, is said to be having little to no impact on reducing prejudice. that's according to a damning new government report. despite local councils spending on edi roles doubling to a staggering £52 million. equalities minister kemi badenoch told the daily telegraph many edi practices, such as diversity training, have not only been proven to be ineffective , they've also been ineffective, they've also been counterproductive. one example is the report about the raf

focusing on hiring women and ethnic minorities, which led to unlawful positive discrimination against white men. quite literally sacrificing the defence of the realm there. elsewhere, the bbc is splashing out around £600,000 a year on edi training, labour a whopping 1.4 million and the bloated nhs. here we go £13 million on diversity offices and training courses. so what do you think has the relentless focus on diversity and inclusion been bad for britain ? let me know your for britain? let me know your thoughts. email me gb views or gb news. com tweet me at gb news and make sure you go and take part in our poll. the results to follow doing battle follow shortly. but doing battle on broadcaster on this now is broadcaster benjamin butterworth and youtuber pearl davis. and look, i always go ladies first, pearl. i'll start with you. do you think diversity and inclusion and equality has made britain worse? >> i don't think we need these programs , james. we're not we're programs, james. we're not we're not asking for this. you know, i don't you can't eliminate prejudice. you can't put in a

program and eliminate prejudice. i don't think we need it. i don't think we need special treatment and programs just because i am born a woman. >> okay, benjamin, what do you think? do you think it's more done? more to drive a wedge between us? well, look, i appreciate that. >> at pearl has been honest. >> that she doesn't care about prejudice. >> doesn't women >> she doesn't care if women are on of discrimination. >> there's no point >> she says there's no point trying to overcome it because you least that's you can't. at least that's an honest answer that honest answer to people that want exclusion and narrow minded workplaces like, are you workplaces like, what are you going program? going to put in a program? >> well, the one >> well, the fact is one prejudice, the not prejudice. >> prejudice by definition. >> oh well that's right . >> oh well that's right. >> oh well that's right. >> prejudice by definition is a learned behaviour. you know , learned behaviour. you know, none of us are born hating black people or women or gay people, but some people develop those hatreds . they develop them in hatreds. they develop them in subtle ways or acute ways. and that causes serious problems. and think when you about and i think when you talk about workplaces, when have those workplaces, when you have those kind of attitudes that can be prevalent that be prevalent and that can be subtle, means people subtle, that means that people of those descriptions of those minority descriptions can't potential . okay. >> i just think if these

diversity inclusion, such diversity and inclusion, is such a good thing major a good thing in major institutions nhs, institutions like our nhs, spending something £13 spending something like £13 billion why on earth billion on it all, why on earth is the nhs such an absolute shower? why are our local councils all going bankrupt? all of stuff? if diversity and of this stuff? if diversity and inclusion was leading to better people being right at the top of it running them well, people being right at the top of it running them well , why it and running them well, why on earth this situation? earth are we in this situation? >> fact that the nhs >> well, the fact that the nhs is problem is because of is in a problem is because of the government we've been the government that we've been chosen, largely elected chosen, which is largely elected by white people, by old, straight, white people, who's frankly, i who's leading quite frankly, i think shows issue. think that shows an issue. rishi sunak. think what's been sunak. and i think what's been evident from the racist funders of in recent of the tory party in recent weeks, that's a great weeks, that's hardly a great example of diversity and inclusion. example of diversity and inclusi�*you that there's >> do you think that there's been pearl of, you been positives, pearl of, you know, empowerment for, ethnic groups etc? we've seen things like positive action, i suppose we would call it. do you think there's been a net benefit to that at all? >> i think that the best people for jobs should get jobs. forjobs should get the jobs. i don't in any of these don't believe in any of these empowerment programmes. i don't believe handouts believe in any of these handouts . i think it's as simple as that. >> the fact is that , you know, i

>> the fact is that, you know, i was speaking to a lawyer recently who's middle aged recently who's who's middle aged now, he's a gay man. and now, and he's a gay man. and this person saying about how this person was saying about how when starting in when they were starting out in law, feel like they law, they didn't feel like they could their full selves. could be their full selves. they'd didn't as they'd career didn't progress as much very much because it was very homophobic they homophobic at the time. they were starting out. and so do you know ever man know what do you ever let a man speak? and speak? pearl? honest to god. and the is that, you know, you the fact is that, you know, you get so many examples of that. don't tell that a generation don't tell me that a generation ago there were not black people, intellectual capable enough ago there were not black people, intrunningl capable enough ago there were not black people, intrunning big capable enough ago there were not black people, intrunning big businesses. nough ago there were not black people, intrunning big businesses. the|h of running big businesses. the fact weren't, the fact that they weren't, and the fact that they weren't, and the fact many women weren't far fact that many women weren't far fewer because women fewer isn't because women weren't those other weren't capable, or those other minorities it's minorities weren't capable. it's because prejudice because there was a prejudice stopping opportunity . because there was a prejudice stopping opportunity. but stopping the opportunity. but then why? and this is about overcoming what's going on and what's overcoming what's going on and whtthen why aren't we doing >> then why aren't we doing it now? thing you can't now? this is the thing you can't you people into you can't push people into industries don't want to do industries that don't want to do it, but you push them away. >> what happens now. >> that's what happens now. >> that's what happens now. >> i don't be. yeah let >> i don't want to be. yeah let let a woman speak. come on, you sexist. come on, come on. so it's. we don't want to be bricklayers . we don't want to be bricklayers. we don't want to be plumbers. picking plumbers. we're not picking

these nothing to do these jobs. it's nothing to do with. it's nothing to do with our it's the industries our sex. it's the industries that we pick. >> we should all want to be plumbers. they're more plumbers. they're earning more than of than the rest of us. >> okay. all right. that >> okay. all right. well, that was all well, who was lively. all right, well, who do with? thank you do you agree with? thank you very the way, that very much. by the way, that was wonderful, badenoch wonderful, as kemi badenoch reveals diversity reveals that equality, diversity and inclusion training having and inclusion training is having little as the little to no impact as the relentless focus on the subject has been bad for britain. sandra on x says diversity and inclusion in inclusion policies are in reality divisive , and reality incredibly divisive, and a badge for a day or a flag for a badge for a day or a flag for a week causes more harm than good. lee says equality, diversity and inclusion training good. lee says equality, diveno y and inclusion training good. lee says equality, diveno place inclusion training good. lee says equality, diveno place in:lusion training good. lee says equality, diveno place in:lusiwell—oiled has no place in any well—oiled business. sarah says diversity and training can help, and inclusion training can help, but true progress comes from having mentors to learn having good mentors to learn from mentors from a variety of different backgrounds and experiences . your verdict now experiences. your verdict is now in. 96% of you agree that the relentless focus on diversity and inclusion training has been bad for britain. 4% of you say that it has not. right? coming up, a migrant is stabbed

crossing the channel on a small boat to england just what sort of dangerous criminals could we be importing to the uk? but next rishi sunak. he met with the 1922 backbench committee after a so—called flurry of no confidence letters have been submitted against him. half the cabinet supposedly want his job. is he safe? former deputy chair of the tory party, lee anderson, has exclusive insight on the drama and you will never believe the response that he got to this question today from, well, a woke fire rescue boss. >> unfair advantages, white people have in your force . people have in your force. >> all will be revealed. >> all will be revealed. >> stay tuned

i >> -- >> mrs. lam >> mrs. michael crick ordered a pizza on delivery. >> gb news now. coming in, i am joined by the man who had his thumb bitten off by a delivery rider. but first, after his defection to reform uk last week, lee anderson was back in parliament today grilling the chair of dorset and wiltshire fire and rescue authority, rebecca knox, after she claimed that her force, her own force was institutionally racist. it's fair to say lee's questioning left her in a bit of a muddle. >> unfair advantages white people have in your force. >> i would hope not. none. not advantages. did i hear you have any advantages? no

>> then how can you be institutionally racist , i sorry, institutionally racist, i sorry, i might have to get back to you on. no, no . on. no, no. >> yeah. i'm joined now by the man himself , >> yeah. i'm joined now by the man himself, lee anderson. so, lee, this fine force declared itself institutionally racist. essentially. yeah. and then when you said what makes you institutionally racist? there weren't actually any answers , weren't actually any answers, weren't actually any answers, were there? >> i think this is just a case, patrick, of a of a boss here, just ticking a box, admitting that the force is institutionally racist when it's probably not just to keep a job. it was quite pathetic. you know, it was quite pathetic. you know, i challenged her. i grilled her on the spot in the home affairs select committee today, and she couldn't answer a simple question. it totally flummoxed her, why are they doing this? it's again, it's virtue signalling at the highest level. >> well, it is literally at the highest level, though, to declare, be willing to declare yourselves institutionally racist, for most people would be the worst thing imaginable. you

would try to avoid that at all costs. they willingly done this and then not got any evidence to back which just doesn't back it up, which just doesn't make any sense. >> but the thing is, patrick, she's the boss of fire she's the boss of this fire service of this authority. service of this fire authority. she's admitted in a home affairs select committee that force select committee that air force is racist . and is institutionally racist. and then, like you say, cannot back it with evidence . she's it up with any evidence. she's just ticking boxes to keep her job as far as concerned. job as far as i'm concerned. >> want to see think that >> so you want to see think that we're in a situation britain we're in a situation in britain at moment companies at the moment where companies and indeed and corporations and indeed pubuc and corporations and indeed public are , are public bodies like that are, are deliberately saying that they're institutionally racist. absolutely >> it's almost as if, patrick, it's fashionable to say that you're racist. it's pathetic. >> i just find that absolutely bizarre, staggering. is she going to come back to you with any examples at some point, do you think? >> i m- m— >> well, i doubt it very much, patrick. i mean, i mean, the whole session mean, if you whole session was i mean, if you watched further on in the clips of this this lady today, she of this of this lady today, she was like was absolutely pathetic, like i say, signalling at say, it's virtue signalling at the highest level. i'm definitely doing it to keep a

job, in my humble opinion. >> i just find it absolutely bonkers. most people would go, you know, to hell and high water to be desperate to not be seen, to be desperate to not be seen, to be desperate to not be seen, to be racist , institutionally to be racist, institutionally racist. and yet there you are, admitting it and hoping that the mob away they don't go mob go away and they don't go away. after week of away. anyway, after a week of fevered plotting, intense speculation leadership speculation about leadership challenges the challenges rishi sunak faced the gauntlet of pmqs earlier today and certainly wasn't given an and he certainly wasn't given an easy ride. >> you can see why he doesn't want an election. >> why is the party of lost faith ? faith? >> why half his cabinet are lining up to replace him ? no lining up to replace him? no answers, no plan, no clue . answers, no plan, no clue. >> well, sunak was then yet again hauled over the hot coals by the backbench 1922 committee this evening. now, look, lee, you are the former tory deputy party chairman. you've been in the room at these meetings before. you were the red wall made flesh. people used to want you to turn up at their conservative associations and bang the are you really bang the drums. are you really know what people are saying about right. now about sunak? all right. now you're finally switched party.

you can reveal the truth right here on show. what are they saying? >> not much of revealing the truth, that the truth, patrick, is that the parliamentary conservative party and many friends and i've got many, many friends in i'm not here to, to in there. so i'm not here to, to diss or off. but it is diss or them off. but it is a fact that the parliamentary party are probably out of touch with the conservative membership and the vast majority of conservative voters in this great country of ours out of touch. great country of ours out of touch . parliament is out of touch. parliament is out of touch. parliament is out of touch. we know that. and we keep heanng touch. we know that. and we keep hearing the same thing. stick to the plan. stick to the plan. the plan's working. this is the plan. let's put the conservative party 2025 points behind in the polls . the plan is not working polls. the plan is not working well, you know, opposite these 1922 committee meetings. >> lee. and, you know, all too often i got the impression that >> lee. and, you know, all too ofte had|ot the impression that >> lee. and, you know, all too ofte had|ot come npression that >> lee. and, you know, all too ofte had|ot come out ssion that >> lee. and, you know, all too ofte had|ot come out ofon that >> lee. and, you know, all too ofte had|ot come out of thoset >> lee. and, you know, all too ofte had|ot come out of those and you had to come out of those and 90, you had to come out of those and go, what? go, well, you know what? >> i stopped going to him. patrick thought there >> i stopped going to him. patrjust thought there >> i stopped going to him. patrjust a thought there >> i stopped going to him. patrjust a waste thought there >> i stopped going to him. patrjust a waste orought there >> i stopped going to him. patrjust a waste of time. there >> i stopped going to him. patrjust a waste of time. it's re was just a waste of time. it's a lot of people, no disrespect to my colleagues, but there my colleagues, but go in there and smoke a and they're blowing smoke up a certain anatomy certain part of an anatomy of the prime minister, him

the prime minister, making him feel actually what he feel good when actually what he needs told is truth. needs to be told is the truth. and lot of my and unfortunately, a lot of my colleagues tell them. colleagues don't tell them. >> do you think >> do you think do you think they're lying? think tory they're lying? so you think tory mps cabinet mps and presumably cabinet ministers to the prime ministers are lying to the prime ministers are lying to the prime minister about what mood minister about what the mood is actually like about him? >> patrick, >> i said last year, patrick, that certain parts of the conservative are the conservative party are like the band titanic. they sit band on the titanic. they sit there old song . there playing the same old song. they can see what's coming but do about it. do nothing about it. >> right. well i'll tell you >> all right. well i'll tell you what. now going to be what. we are now going to be talking another record talking about another record breaking for small boats. breaking day for small boats. okay? hundred and 50 migrant okay? for hundred and 50 migrant arrivals on uk shores today alone, that's the highest number to arrive in a single day this yeah to arrive in a single day this year. meanwhile all over in the house of lords are . look at him. house of lords are. look at him. there we go. the health minister. we never had , rebel minister. we never had, rebel peers have this evening done their level best to delay the government's rwanda bill by backing seven amendments. it means that flights to rwanda won't now take off until we think maybe june lee have . think maybe june lee have. sunak's chances of getting flies off the ground by spring vanished , probably. patrick,

then ensued before she chewed off his thumb like a savage. well, jennifer rocher has now pleaded guilty to causing grievous bodily harm and could face jail when sentenced in may. what makes matters worse, though, is that she was not actually employed by deliveroo but had been working as a substitute rider using someone else's account. stephen, meanwhile , well, life has never meanwhile, well, life has never been the same since he joins me now . stephen, thank you very, now. stephen, thank you very, very much. what happened? >> well, so i'd just got gone back to work after paternity leave, having my daughter and i said to my ex—partner, you know , said to my ex—partner, you know, should we order some food as you do, you know, there's no food in the house. you've got a brand new baby. and so she ordered a pizza on deliveroo. i went through the process of , of, you through the process of, of, you know, ordering the food, waiting for the driver to come . as most for the driver to come. as most know, on a deliveroo app, it sends you a notification to say the rider has arrived so i went

to the front door, opened the front door. no one was there. went back to jessica. i said, there's no one there. can you just send her a message and find out where she is? so she sent her a message instantly replied saying allocation of pin. so i walked to the front i walked back to the front door. i opened front door. nobody walked back to the front door. i openewent front door. nobody walked back to the front door. i openewent back: door. nobody walked back to the front door. i openewent back inside.\iobody walked back to the front door. i openewent back inside. i)body walked back to the front door. i openewent back inside. i said, walked back to the front door. i openenotlt back inside. i said, walked back to the front door. i openenot there. inside. i said, walked back to the front door. i openenot there. can de. i said, walked back to the front door. i openenot there. can is. i said, walked back to the front door. i openenot there. can is. i ssee she's not there. can i just see on the phone where she actually is now? there a pin on the is now? there was a pin on the on the app that was about 50m on on the app that was about 50m up the road. so i made the decision to just go and get the food. yeah. so as you would, it's 730 on a cold december night. you just want to eat. you don't want to go to bed, walked up the road as i got there. she she was standing off her bike. i said to her, i'm from that house. can i have the food, please? and she just launched an attack on and as she started attack on me, and as she started to swing punches for me, i just put my arm out like that to keep her at a distance. because the only thought that went through my head at the time was, this is a you're guy. if you hit a girl. you're a guy. if you hit her in or try and do anything in

any you're going to in any way, you're going to get in any way, you're going to get in a trouble than she is. a lot more trouble than she is. so i kept putting myself at a distance from her saying, i'm going police. i'm going to call the police. i'm going to call the police. i'm going it's going to call the police. it's just unfortunate went like just unfortunate as i went like that time that i did that the last time that i did it, my hand her helmet. my it, my hand hit her helmet. my thumb the in thumb went through the visor in on and she just on the helmet, and she just clamped she bit it clamped down until she bit it off, we just have a look? if off, can we just have a look? if you don't mind? so that camera there is opposite so that there is opposite you. so that is now your thumb, right? yeah. >> so half my big toe, so >> so that's half my big toe, so when i went to the hospital. >> just keep it up for us. is that all right? sorry. just. just as you talk through it. so thatis just as you talk through it. so that is actually a bit of your big toe. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> so that's the inside of my big toe. so if you look at a big toe, they've now removed the inside just inside of it. so i've just got the outer of, of my big toe. >> goodness me to be honest with you. know unless you really you. you know unless you really know can't it's know you can't tell. so it's i mean, it's clearly not ideal. you've lost a bit of your big toe you you've now toe and, you know, you've now got slightly different thumb, toe and, you know, you've now got yeah,|tly different thumb, toe and, you know, you've now got yeah,|tlywhat,ent thumb, toe and, you know, you've now got yeah,|tlywhat, like,|umb, toe and, you know, you've now got yeah,|tlywhat, like, didb, toe and, you know, you've now got yeah,|tlywhat, like, did it but. yeah, so what, like, did it feel you realise what

but. yeah, so what, like, did it feel doing? u realise what but. yeah, so what, like, did it feel doing? because what but. yeah, so what, like, did it feel doing? because ithat but. yeah, so what, like, did it feel doing? because it must she was doing? because it must have just been of the most have just been one of the most outrageous you've ever had. >> i would say it was in her mouth for a good 45 seconds to a minute. i was there minute. you know, i was there shaking a helmet and shaking on a helmet to try and get off for a while, chewing get her off for a while, chewing down your as she's down on your thumb, and as she's biting clamping and clamping biting and clamping and clamping and clamping i remember and clamping and all i remember is and my brain is my hand dropped and my brain said, let go. and then said, she's let go. and then i lifted my arm up and clearly and sprayed her with blood, because there's artery your thumb. there's an artery in your thumb. so her with blood so i sprayed her with blood and then that of my then realised that half of my thumb missing. thumb was missing. >> there's different layers to this again. so your life this story again. so your life unfortunately the unfortunately hasn't been the same since. not just because same since. and not just because of no, absolutely. of your thumb? no, absolutely. >> everything because >> i've lost everything because of know, i haven't of it. you know, i haven't worked, know, trade. i'm worked, you know, by trade. i'm a a engineer. a plumber and a gas engineer. i haven't worked, and haven't worked, you know, me and my now separated. my partner are now separated. you i don't get see her you know, i don't get to see her or my daughter, you know, it's, it's tough, you know, in terms of debt, because i haven't been. i've been out of work for so long, you know, that's it's a significant sum of money and deliver a basically saying it's

not our problem. >> and this is an important point because because they i mean, she wasn't a deliveroo dnven mean, she wasn't a deliveroo driver, was she. >> so she borrowed she had her husband's account, so she wasn't a delivery rider, a registered delivery rider. so deliveroo had obviously didn't know that she was she was working that night. she thought it was the husband actually doing the jobs . actually doing the jobs. >> and, so this is a big problem, isn't it? because, you know, anyone can turn up at your front door, essentially including , front door, essentially including, in your case, suddenly someone who was willing to bite your thumb off. >> you know, >> absolutely. and you know, there so different there are so many different assault sexual assault there are so many different assau against sexual assault there are so many different assau against deliveroo sault there are so many different assau against deliveroo riders, cases against deliveroo riders, there a case recently where there was a case recently where a woman was getting stalked by a delivery rider who was a third party again. now that all needs to change, you know, the law needs to change. reform needs to happen. we have the technology to be able to do in terms of to be able to do so in terms of face id on your phone, you open your your you your phone with your face, you know, in the same way you should

be that with picking up be doing that with picking up food, am joe bloggs, food, right? so i am joe bloggs, i picking the food. i am i am picking up the food. i am joe bloggs. i've been, you know, i've had the relevant police i've had all the relevant police checks i'm the one checks and i'm the one delivering the food. so know delivering the food. so you know that person gone that that person has gone through such a stringent process just to have that just to be able to have that position, to be picking up your food and dropping it off and do you think, i mean, do you think that be able to go that you might be able to go back work soon as a result? back to work soon as a result? >> i know it's a very you know, it's literally hands on job, it's literally a hands on job, isn't from a physical point, isn't it? from a physical point, it's because, for example, it's tough because, for example, things even things like buttons, even shoelaces, difficult shoelaces, they're so difficult for me these days. >> know, amount of >> so, you know, the amount of times tried to things times i've tried to do things with with fittings with copper pipe, with fittings and because and everything else because i don't a of feeling and don't have a lot of feeling and it is a lot more bulky than my original yeah, hard original thumb. yeah, it's hard to those fittings in place to hold those fittings in place just quickly. >> sorry to ask you this, but i think why couldn't they just reattach your thumb? >> when she had bitten my >> so when she had bitten my thumb off in the time that my ex—partner had got out so she could spit it, spit it into her hand, she'd had a good chew on

it. she'd sucked all the blood out of it, and she'd had a real, real on it. so when it got real go on it. so when it got taken to hospital, they said, there's no way that this go there's no way that this can go back you see all the back on. you can see all the bite marks. >> look, thank you very >> well, look, thank you very much for coming in and for talking and talking to us about it. and hopefully you've highlighted an issue sorted issue there that gets sorted when it comes to when certainly when it comes to delivery hopefully delivery drivers, hopefully you get justice for what's get justice as well for what's happened you. in a statement, happened to you. in a statement, deliveroo were deliveroo said its riders were self—employed which self—employed, a fact which has been by courts on been confirmed by uk courts on multiple they multiple occasions. they added substitution has substitution is and always has been a common feature of self—employment. it's not specific to deliveroo nor our sector. the department for work and pensions. they also said they comment an they couldn't comment on an active even she's active case, even though she's pleaded guilty. they pleaded guilty. apparently they are to comment on the are yet to comment on the general substitution, general issue of substitution, so unfortunately for you, at the moment looks you've got moment it looks like you've got a on your hands. a real fight on your hands. but thank you very for coming thank you very much for coming in. is much appreciated. in. it is much appreciated. look, up, damning new look, coming up, damning new figures that in figures reveal that 1 in 5 muslim prisoners england and muslim prisoners in england and wales amid growing wales is white, amid growing fears behind bars fears that gangs behind bars are surging conversions. now, fears that gangs behind bars are surgbeen conversions. now, fears that gangs behind bars are surgbeen claimed;ions. now, fears that gangs behind bars are surgbeen claimed that. now, fears that gangs behind bars are surgbeen claimed that some it's been claimed that some

crossing so far this year, with a record 450 migrants arriving today. a record 450 migrants arriving today . this takes the number of today. this takes the number of migrants coming to the uk illegally. this year to nearly 4000. meanwhile, passage of the government's flagship rwanda bill is now delayed until after easter, when mps will have to vote again after several votes against it by the house of lords . today, our political editor, chris hope, has the latest in the house of lords. >> tonight, peers have voted to say that migrants can only be sent to rwanda when all the measures in rwanda treaty have been satisfied, and that could take a while. another amendment passed the peers here, passed by the by the peers here, says the bill must have due regard for international law and so the ping pong protest continues. but the government is very clear it will ensure it will try and force this measure through parliament ensure through parliament to ensure that can off. it that flights can take off. it rolls on now, probably till after easter, when we expect another battle between the commons lords now commons and the lords now housing illegal migrants on barges, military bases and in

student accommodation will cost taxpayers more than the hotels that are currently being used . that are currently being used. >> the national audit office says housing those waiting for asylum decisions in alternative accommodation would cost the home office £46 million more than just using hotels. meanwhile, the home office has announced that 100 asylum hotels will have been handed back to pubuc will have been handed back to public use by the end of march to wales now, where vaughan gething singh has been sworn in as first minister this evening. the new welsh labour leader succeeds mark drakeford, who resigned yesterday after holding the position since 2018. mr gething was elected as the welsh government leader by members of the senate earlier on today. he's expected to form a new cabinet in the next few days. earlier on, he told the senate he wants to lead a wales of hope, ambition and unity. now some greggs the baker stores were forced to close today after being hit by an it glitch at the

migrant crisis importing violent thugs into britain? today was a record breaking day. 450 arrivals. one of those arrivals was stabbed whilst on a boat crossing the channel. gb news filmed the scene as an ambulance arrived at the harbour to meet the lifeboat. so it looks like at least one of the people we've imported into britain today is probably prepared to kill somebody brilliant . fortunately, somebody brilliant. fortunately, the stab victim's injuries are not believed to be life threatening, but we are clearly now importing channel migrants who have armed themselves. as we know, we probably won't be able to deport that person even if we find out who it is. and today, just hours ago, the members of the house of lords voted against the house of lords voted against the rwanda plan again , they want the rwanda plan again, they want to tighten safeguards for channel migrants. what about the safeguards for us? we know violent thugs have come across the channel yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah .

yeah yeah. >> bucha. yeah. >> bucha. yeah. >> two channel migrants who attacked police on a french beach were jailed. the pair were part of a violent mob who confronted police , threw confronted police, threw missiles at them, tried to beat them up. sally taib abdullah and ahmed omar saleh khater were sentenced at canterbury crown court to a total of two years and two months imprisonment for attempting to arrive in the uk illegally again . they probably illegally again. they probably won't be deported. we know we're importing hardened criminals trained in violence by trafficking gangs , and that is trafficking gangs, and that is before i mentioned the sexual violence that several channel migrants have been accused of today as well. gb news revealed that the cost to the british taxpayer for large scale asylum housing will be £1.2 billion. that's apparently £46 million more than expected, and frankly, £1.2 billion more than it should be.the £1.2 billion more than it should be. the prime minister promised to end the use of migrant hotels. that meant redeveloping large military sites by the end

of this month . it looks like the of this month. it looks like the home office will have spent at least £230 million on raf scampton and other sites. there's a tragic metaphor in here, isn't there ? we haven't here, isn't there? we haven't got any money to increase defence spending . at the same defence spending. at the same time, we're spending hundreds of millions of pounds packing former military sites with fighting age males from other countries who entered britain illegally . the wethersfield base illegally. the wethersfield base was originally expected to cost £5 million. that's come in at 49 million. we know that channel migrants are not bothered about rwanda. they are laughing at us in rwanda and the people here in the camps just laugh. >> it's become a bit of a joke. the threat hasn't put them off because here thinks because no one here thinks for a second they're back second they're heading back to rwanda. it to the uk. >> despite the blatant facts , >> despite the blatant facts, james cleverly was very vocal about he'd stopped the boats about how he'd stopped the boats over christmas. wasn't well over christmas. wasn't he? well done. today. we've done. there he is today. we've had a record for arrivals this yeah had a record for arrivals this year. one of them is clearly a knife wielding lunatic, and the

french are just ushering them through these channel migrants do not have to pay human traffickers to come to britain. they could save themselves thousands of pounds by getting on a flight and claiming asylum. when they land here, they want to be undocumented, so we don't know who they are and what they've done in the past. and given that someone was stabbed on a boat today, it's not hard to see why. let's get the thoughts now of my panel . to see why. let's get the thoughts now of my panel. i'm joined this evening by the director of popular conservatives, mark littlewood. i've got businessman and activist i've activist adam brooks, and i've also got author and journalist rebecca reid . mark, are we rebecca reid. mark, are we importing foreign thugs? well i'm not sure we're importing them. >> importing suggests that you kind of, you know, you pay some money and buy something. i import some stuff. they are definitely they're definitely coming bag. coming over. it's a mixed bag. not them are that, but not all of them are that, but some of are that, as you some of them are that, as you pointed and the problem some of them are that, as you pointilook, and the problem some of them are that, as you pointilook, it's1d the problem some of them are that, as you pointilook, it's quite problem some of them are that, as you point! look, it's quite difficult] here, look, it's quite difficult for the to secure for all of for the uk to secure for all of its border. we've got what is

it, 11,000 miles of coastline, i mean, you'd need sort of a million people to be the coastguard to prevent illegally getting in. the problem is the lack of deterrent effect. and the slowness of the process. when you've made it, it is taking more than six months, in most cases, to process asylum claims, a remarkable number at first instance seem to be successful. we should be able to process these things in, i don't know, maybe 2 or 3 days is a bit optimistic, but something along those and we need to those lines and we need to deport people quickly you can deport people quickly if you can get part of it right, then get that part of it right, then the demand slows. >> today we had a >> well, adam, today we had a record breaking day for the yeah record breaking day for the year. 450 people at year. 450 people arrived at least one those, it appears, least one of those, it appears, is to take a knife to is willing to take a knife to another human being. concerning. >> we've got people coming >> look, we've got people coming from cultures that are very different own , you different from our own, you know, this is dangerous. we've had terrorists , gangsters, had terrorists, gangsters, paedophiles, rapists. now we've just got people that are stabbing people on their way here. i mean , as a parent, we've here. i mean, as a parent, we've got enough nutters in this

country as it is. i don't want more and as a taxpayer, i don't want to be funding their life on benefits, their free health care , their housing. where are we going to get the houses from 450 today? they're going to want their families over. that number are probably swelled to about 1500. once their families come overin 1500. once their families come over in the next two years. how can this go on? this is a national emergency. the greeks started doing it. the greek authorities started towing back or turning back boats. they were rapped on the knuckles. what's happened to them? nothing. rishi sunak needs to get some balls. if i was the prime minister, i'd be towing them back very safely, very slowly. and i would take the consequences. it's our country. we can do what we want . country. we can do what we want. all right. >> rebecca, there were four stories rolled into today. stories rolled into one today. we've arrivals. we've got the record arrivals. we've got the record arrivals. we've stabbing, we've we've got the stabbing, we've got lords and we've got the got the lords and we've got the cost that's emerged now as well. about £1.2 billion. which one of those most egregious for those is the most egregious for you. do think when we

you. do you think so when we talk this today when we talk about this today when we were prepping show, i were prepping for the show, i decided going talk decided that i was going to talk to lawyer what to a lefty lawyer about what they thought should do they thought we should do because we about the left because we talk about the left laws because we talk about the left law so because we talk about the left lawso i spoke one and they >> so i spoke to one and they said in their experience, said that in their experience, the issue is that when the major issue is that when they process forms, they try and process the forms, it by people who are it is done by people who are often his words were straight off lidl like off the checkout at lidl like they are people who have they are junior people who have left recently very left school recently with very little them little training. a lot of them are and if your form are tick boxes and if your form goes person who goes in and the person who filled it out, who is on minimum wage has filled out incorrectly, one put back. and one point it gets put back. and every time there's every single time there's a human error in these forms, it starts the processing starts again. so the processing is, said, arduous and is, as you said, arduous and badly so i'm starting badly handled. so i'm starting to think that if this is a national emergency and people in this seem to with this country seem to agree with that, if we can up if we can have the kind response we did have the kind of response we did to we go, okay, this is to covid, we go, okay, this is an emergency. therefore an emergency. so therefore we need doing need thousands more people doing processing to processing and that needs to mean that anybody who is a legitimate seeker can legitimate asylum seeker can stay . and anybody isn't goes stay. and anybody who isn't goes back fine, i get that back the okay, fine, i get that the issue is that we are in a

situation at the moment where the individual who may or may not be proven to have stabbed this individual on a boat, okay, as it currently stands in our law, we could we could find that person guilty this country of person guilty in this country of that crime. >> and they are from >> and if they are from essentially country essentially any other country other than somewhere in western europe, be europe, we still will not be able to them able to send them back. >> that's right. and it's tricky to people back when there to send people back when there aren't know, of aren't really, you know, part of aren't really, you know, part of a coherent system. i do think that the burden should be on the asylum seeker themselves to fill out these forms, but they won't be because it benefits them to keep. >> if you if i wanted to stay in this country , i'd do the form this country, i'd do the form wrong every time. >> yeah, but but that shouldn't be a free pass. yeah, but the word should to the form word should is to get the form properly filled out. if you can't do then not can't do that, then it's not a proper claim. >> you just said really >> you just said it's really important just important that we can't just send to send send people. it's hard to send people back. >> them but this is >> send them back. but this is what leave what you actually need to leave echr, the echr, i think. but the difficulty get the difficulty we won't get the rwanda policy properly, rwanda policy working properly, but be symbolic rather but you will be symbolic rather than else, but you lose but you will be symbolic rather tilot else, but you lose but you will be symbolic rather tilot leaving.se, but you lose but you will be symbolic rather tilot leaving.se, blechr. lose

a lot by leaving echr echr. >> just it as it is. >> let's just tell it as it is. and the reality of our asylum seeker system , the, acid seeker system, the, acid attacker was twice denied asylum. i believe he was found guilty of a sexual offence. he was then granted asylum to stay in this country. we are a joke. we are weak and this is going to finish this country. we are going to end up with probably a million channel migrants in the next 5 or 10 years. >> right. >> right. >> and their families are going to come over and our culture is going to be eroded. >> but there has to be a way that if you are a woman from afghanistan, who would who would actually be the actually be killed by the taliban, that let me finish. we have the right have to be able to get the right people men people from afghanistan, not men like him like that. nobody wants him here. the real, genuine here. but the real, genuine people who need to here must people who need to be here must be to come here. but we be able to come here. but we have not fleeing afghanistan. >> well, it clearly france. afghanistan. >> yeah. it clearly france. afghanistan. >> yeah. it clethey'reince. on >> yeah. and they're clearly on a somebody a a boat with somebody who's a stabber. wasn't all stabber. so clearly wasn't all jokes calais. jokes in calais. >> you don't. jokes in calais. >> where n't. jokes in calais. >> where do. jokes in calais. >> where do we them? you >> where do we put them? you know i'm not. i'm not emmanuel

affect does. we aren't protecting doesn't affe it does. we aren't protecting doesn't affe it affects the everyday >> it affects the everyday person this country. the person of this country. the lords the higher lords do not see the higher streets and hotels in their areas. >> all right. >> all right. >> all right. >> a home office spokesperson said this. we have always been clear that the use of asylum hotels is unacceptable . i've hotels is unacceptable. i've read out about five times. read this out about five times. it's the same statement that they we've they always send us. we've always been clear the use always been clear that the use of hotels is of asylum hotels is unacceptable, that's why we unacceptable, and that's why we are swiftly reduce are acted swiftly to reduce the impact communities impact on local communities by moving seekers onto moving asylum seekers onto barges moving asylum seekers onto barge but have further to sites. but we have further to 90, sites. but we have further to go, which is why we are passing the of rwanda bill, the safety of rwanda bill, deterring channel and deterring channel crossings and getting rwanda , getting flights off to rwanda, because it's only when people are discouraged taking are discouraged from taking those journeys that we can end the hotel for good, while the hotel use for good, while the hotel use for good, while the nows figures include set up costs, currently better costs, it is currently better value for money for the taxpayer to continue with these sites than use hotels now coming up, university of bristol students are tables and chairs to are using tables and chairs to barricade themselves campus barricade themselves into campus buildings in a free, free palestine . more of that and when

palestine. more of that and when i reveal more of tomorrow's newspaper front pages. but next, damning new figures reveal that 1 in 5 muslim prisoners in england and wales is white. amid growing fears that islamist gangs are behind a surge in conversions. it's even claimed that some prisoners now have their own sharia societies. the author of a government report, colin bloom, joins me live is patrick christys tonight we're on

gb news. all right. welcome back. the first of tomorrow's newspaper front pages coming up. but time now to dig into startling revelations that 1 in 5 muslim prisoners is now white, sparking fears that islamist gangs are behind a surge in forced conversions behind bars. ministry of justice data shows there were nearly 16,000 muslim prisoners in england and wales in september last year, accounting for 18% of all inmates. crucially, nearly 20% of those inmates were white. that's three times the rate of the general muslim population . the general muslim population. it follows a report two years ago by jonathan hall kc, the independent reviewer of terror legislation , that muslim legislation, that muslim terrorists were setting up shana terrorists were setting up sharia courts behind bars because prison staff were so concerned about being accused of racism. milly dowler, murderer levi bellfield and the soham killer ian huntley have both notoriously converted to islam in prison, and the duke of marlborough famously said he

became muslim in jail because apparently you get more food, but meanwhile, another review apparently you get more food, but last|nwhile, another review apparently you get more food, but last yearle, another review apparently you get more food, but last yearle, colin er review apparently you get more food, but last yearle, colin bloom ew apparently you get more food, but last yearle, colin bloom ,/ apparently you get more food, but last yearle, colin bloom , a led last year by colin bloom, a government adviser, found that failure to identify as a muslim meant that at best, the new prisoner would be denied protection from violent muslims. but there is a lot more to it than that. and here to discuss this, joined by the man this, i'm joined by the man himself, former government himself, the former government adviser thank you adviser colin bloom. thank you very bad is the very much. and how bad is the problem islamist conversion ? problem of islamist conversion? now i want to make that distinction, obviously, between islam and islamist conversion in prisons. what does it really mean? >> well, look, want to start >> well, look, i want to start by saying that is some very good practice in prisons and there are some very, very good chaplains. and in the work that i did for my review, i did identify some excellent practice. but there is also , i practice. but there is also, i think, fair to say that a number of prisons there are very large and aggressive , islamist gangs, and aggressive, islamist gangs, if you want to put it like that, a muslim majority gangs where

they will. evidence was given to me and my review where korans were put on the bed of incoming inmates , with the very clear inmates, with the very clear indication convert or get hurt. and it was a way of coercing people to say, you know, if you want to be protected in prison, then you've got to convert and become part of our gang. now, prisons are closed and high pressure environments by nature , pressure environments by nature, they're closed environments, and you could imagine that a number, you could imagine that a number, you know, for very many people who are either susceptible to gang culture or, are vulnerable in one way or another, will feel that pressure to convert. and in my report that was published last year, one of the very clear recommendations was that government , have an urgent government, have an urgent inquiry into or an urgent review into this notion of forced conversions, because not only doesit conversions, because not only

does it damage the human rights of the prisoners that are in there , but actually the there, but actually the consequences are that very many of them could become radicalised. >> and then we'll go, well, that's my next question. really. how big a how big a problem is it for people going into the british system, prison system and coming out more radical than they were when they went in or radicalising others while they're in there? >> well, look, honestly, i think the majority of people that are, so—called converted when they go into prison, they are doing it as a matter of convenience or convenience. and you mentioned, lee rigby , the duke of lee rigby, the duke of marlborough. was it or someone? >> yeah. yeah, yeah, yeah , you >> yeah. yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, maybe that was just convenient and i don't think that it was a genuine it clearly not a genuine , conversion. but not a genuine, conversion. but for others who feel that there's maybe a sense of grievance, they've got some anger towards society. they are looking for an excuse to justify their, you know, perhaps the reasons why they've been put in prison ,

they've been put in prison, maybe for some of them, they want to change their life. they want to change their life. they want to change their life. they want to start again. this is a new beginning with a new faith. and they'll be very eager and we know that for very many converts, particularly to converts, particularly to converts to, a particular form of islamism, that they become some of the worst extremists because they feel they've got something to prove. >> i mentioned him there. i meant to mention his killers, actually, lee rigby's killers. obviously, some of the most notorious islamists in the country have been prison now country have been in prison now for quite some time. so they're in there. what about sharia courts in prisons? what's going on there? >> well, it's again , it's part >> well, it's again, it's part of that gang culture that does exist. and i think that whether it's the ministry of justice, whether it's individual , prison whether it's individual, prison chaplains or , or or the, the chaplains or, or or the, the prison management, they do need to get a grip of that gang culture that that exists because there will be some people who ,

there will be some people who, for whatever reason, feel that they are going to get either protected if they join a gang or they are going to get hurt. if they are going to get hurt. if they don't , join a gang. and they don't, join a gang. and that was some of the evidence that was some of the evidence that we received during the evidence gathering process of my report , was that for very many report, was that for very many people, they felt under enormous pressure when they when they went to prison. now if you're a prisoner, you go into prison within 24 hours. you have a statutory right to be visited by the by one of the chaplains, one of the, either the, the managing chaplain or one of the supportive chaplains , and we supportive chaplains, and we find that prisons are actually a much more religious place than the rest of society. more people have a faith if they're in prison than, than not. but even by the standards of the most amazing, you know, revivals of religious conversions, there is something going on in prisons because we are seeing the most incredible number of people

converting, particularly to , to converting, particularly to, to islam in a way that is defies logic. and i think one of the things that we need to ensure that prison chaplains and prison management have is that inquiring mind to say, just what the heck is going on here? you know, this this doesn't seem right. and to perhaps have some professional cynicism as to exactly why it's going on and to help the prisoners that they've got from making big mistakes, okay. >> well , look, okay. >> well, look, thank you very, very much for coming on. we are out of time, unfortunately, now. but i would love to have you back on at some point in the very near future, actually, to continue this discussion, because an issue because i know it's an issue that a lot of our that myself, a lot of our viewers listeners do viewers and listeners do care about deeply. so that's colin bloom former bloom there. he's the former government adviser ministry government adviser and ministry of said this, of justice spokesman said this, attributing to the attributing these figures to the influence of muslim gangs will be based on be misleading and based on wholly evidence. do wholly anecdotal evidence. we do not forced religious not tolerate forced religious conversions those conversions in prisons and those found in such behaviour found engaging in such behaviour face punishments.

face tough punishments. i imagine that might be quite refuted by colin there. but anyway, coming up at university of bristol, students use tablets and barricade and chairs to barricade themselves onto campus in a pro—palestine, protest free free palestine. more of that next. but first, i will have all of tomorrow's newspaper front pages in my press pack. you dare in my press pack. don't you dare move!

this is patrick christys. tonight on gb news, it's time to bnng tonight on gb news, it's time to bring you a first look at tomorrow's front pages. let's do it . okay, i've got the metro it. okay, i've got the metro first. so, guilty poisoner who watched victims die ? the watched victims die? the fentanyl phantom are calling him couple's killer. used 20 fake personas to help a two year murder mission . personas to help a two year murder mission. he's personas to help a two year murder mission . he's described murder mission. he's described as the nerdy double killer who created a cast of 20 phantom characters during his two year

many, many lives. now, i would like to think a junior doctor goes into the profession to help and to save lives, not just for the money. they've got a great career ahead of them. their pensions are renowned and around the world, in this country, i think it's greedy and i think it's reckless and it's costing more lives. >> so your solidarity with them, i mean, the fact is as well, i think a lot of people are under the misguided view that this stops government. stops under a labour government. >> because >> it doesn't, because labour don't to give what don't want to give them what they either. they want either. >> but they might they want either. >> closer.: they might they want either. >> closer. and they might they want either. >> closer. and i they might they want either. >> closer. and i think/ might they want either. >> closer. and i think/ migthe get closer. and i think that the doctors are asking a lot, doctors are asking for a lot, and like a lot. and and it sounds like a lot. and possibly isn't great possibly their pr isn't great because makes them sound because it makes them sound greedy, is going into greedy, but nobody is going into medicine want medicine because they want to make money. if you, if make a lot of money. if you, if you smart, know if you if you are smart, know if you if you are smart, know if you if you are smart, know if you if you are kind of person who you are the kind of person who can into medical you can get into medical school, you could easily be could much you could easily be something management something like a management consultant more consultant and make way more money. that the money. okay, that is not the highest could get highest paying job you could get with level by some margin. with that level by some margin. >> not. mean, it's >> it's not. but i mean, it's a job for life.

is quite a small thing actually. if say to one your if you say to one of your leading presenters, justin webb, you're would you're guilty of bias, i would say quite a big god damn say that's quite a big god damn thing for a broadcaster do. thing for a broadcaster to do. it's not small thing. so he's it's not a small thing. so he's got pick a lane. tim davies got to pick a lane. tim davies i'm going to clamp down this i'm going to clamp down on this or let people i'm going to clamp down on this or the let people i'm going to clamp down on this or the on: people i'm going to clamp down on this or the on air.ople speak the truth on air. >> as a woman , your views >> again, as a woman, your views i think this is being turned into something. >> isn't. wasn't trying to >> it isn't. he wasn't trying to make big sweeping statement or make a big sweeping statement or a statement. a political statement. he did the say the thing. sometimes people say coloured when they mean person of the correct of colour, because the correct tum close lexically to the tum is close lexically to the incorrect . and he he was incorrect terms. and he he was trying to say, i'm pretty sure is male at birth. he he is assigned male at birth. he he has no track of making has no track record of making this major issue at all. and this his major issue at all. and i think a real i think it shows a real negativity in how he treats his words. >> in a way, it's worse that you think in your in your view, you really think it's actually not even he's not done an adam even he's not even done an adam brooks god, you know that's brooks and god, you know that's a bloke, that's he a bloke, right? that's why he just are so >> but i think we are so ungenerous people in, in any ungenerous to people in, in any kind of broadcast that we're so willing to be wrong all willing for them to be wrong all the and i think that's the time. and i think that's what is really what this is really about. i think it's just mean, honestly.
