these these treatment services and you they're and these, you know, they're told, are reversible . told, oh, these are reversible. this is fine. it's you know, you can off them. in most cases can come off them. in most cases they don't come off them. and even do, they can be even if they do, they can be left health left sterile or with health issues. did some very issues. i did i saw some very alarming diagrams. issues. i did i saw some very ala well, diagrams. issues. i did i saw some very ala well, photographs, >> well, photographs, really scientific sort of microscopic sudes scientific sort of microscopic slides on of how cells slides and so on of how cells are affected by these things in testicles. so on. not testicles. and so on. it's not good. reminded don't good. it reminded me, i don't know meaningless , but know if this is meaningless, but it reminded me personally of the effect had on lungs. do effect covid had on lungs. do you remember when, you know, you get deterioration get that kind of deterioration of the sterilisation is what's been on? been going on? >> yeah. this is >> yeah, yeah. i mean this is the greatest, you know, medical, controversy that we've had for 100 years. pretty much now, can't we? >> and, i mean, that's that's you can now say that without being considered to be, you know, cancellable know, completely cancellable instantly . instantly. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> how quickly has that changed? it was only, what, six months ago? well, i mean, everybody knew it. >> just you just couldn't >> you just you just couldn't get away with you couldn't get away with it. you couldn't say know, people say it because, you know, people hadnt say it because, you know, people hadn't everyone's hadn't caught up yet. everyone's five some reason. >> was, it e was, it was reason.

>> was, it was like >> all it was, it was like a religion as well. it was like, you know, gender is you know, gender ideology is this it can't this altar. you know, it can't be it can't be. you be questioned. it can't be. you know, you anything know, if you if you do anything like that, you're you're a heretic. obviously , i mean, heretic. and obviously, i mean, dishing out puberty blockers and hormones is, you hormones to children is, you know, something you, you might do as a, as a last resort, but don't, you know, i mean, i remember, reading because what is really foxed me about this over the whole course of this trans how has seemed trans thing is how it has seemed to upside down. to turn everything upside down. >> you had a kind >> 20 years ago, you had a kind of new atheist movement. you of the new atheist movement. you know, rationalist community know, the rationalist community and science follow and the science follow the science. the people science. these were the people on were sweeping science. these were the people on old were sweeping science. these were the people on old bigots,are sweeping science. these were the people on old bigots, the ;weeping away the old bigots, the religious . you know, religious diehards. you know, who had the dogma. and there was a guy called carl sagan who was a guy called carl sagan who was a real kind of, you like a a real kind of, you know, like a secular these people secular saint for these people who called who wrote a book called the demon—haunted world about getting vestiges getting rid of the last vestiges of and he of superstition and he castigated people for affirmative therapy , where affirmative therapy, where people would come in and go, oh, i see angels. and the therapist would you see would go, do you do you see angels? you know, like, no, angels? you know, it's like, no, tell aren't seeing

tell them they aren't seeing angels. yeah. >> well, this has >> well, what this thing has revealed which again revealed this, which again by more america is more journalists in america is that, a proportion of that, you know, a proportion of these children, do later turn out to just be gay or homosexual or something else. and they're now being chemically, chemically castrated or given puberty castrated or given these puberty blockers. they even blockers. and before they even had a chance to work out who the hell they are. yeah, yeah. and i mean, you would think the, mean, you would think that the, you far left or the you know, the far left or the lgbtq movement would, would at least step in to defend to some extent or say, hang on a second. but the contrary, they were but on the contrary, they were actually the attack dogs for this which has this kind of science, which has now to be completely this kind of science, which has nonof to be completely this kind of science, which has nonof place. to be completely out of place. >> absolutely . well, it's >> absolutely. well, it's reassuring. that sense seems to be regaining the middle ground. we move on to the eye news. daniel. >> oh, yes, the news. public finance mass prevents spending spree after election labour warns which basically is i think there's a kind of labour saying, by the way, there'll be absolutely no difference between the tories and us when it comes around. different around. there were different

change but it would change of colour, but it would be thing. the tories be the same thing. so the tories would be, what would they be like? no future. they labour like? no future. and they labour would be a slightly worse future. yeah. and things future. yeah, yeah. and things can worse. yeah but can only get worse. yeah but this is the what, at the end of every long government, isn't it? >> no. long government gets voted the point at which voted out at the point at which its finances are in great its public finances are in great shape. it's just out shape. and it's just sorting out exactly who's going to be the beneficiary of a windfall. >> but i think i think last time round, like when got in in round, like when blair got in in 97, 97, wasn't it? you 97, it was 97, wasn't it? you know, tories had actually know, the tories had actually left a pretty left the country in a pretty decent and major was decent state. and john major was a underrated, underrated a kind of underrated, underrated , ken clarke in particular. >> his chancellor very good. >> his chancellor was very good. yeah. true because they yeah. that's true because they lost, had lost, because they had that black like in black wednesday thing like in 92.and black wednesday thing like in 92. and then they limped on for like four whole years. yeah. and there's and there's the corruption and things that brought sleaze. >> yeah. yeah yeah. >> yeah. yeah yeah. >> which of course they have now with rig wriggle. his with rag rig wriggle. what's his name? yeah. a w right. >> oh yeah. with a w right. >> oh yeah. with a w right. >> yeah. it's very major >> yeah, yeah. it's very major ish. kind of last days of rome thing that you saw with the tax, the non—dom tax policy, is

the non—dom tax policy, which is kind of a modification. >> labour's modified hunts kind of a modification. >> lalonr's modified hunts kind of a modification. >> lalon non—domsi hunts kind of a modification. >> lalon non—doms to jnts kind of a modification. >> lalon non—doms to be; policy on non—doms to be a little bit more aggressive, like grab an extra billion pounds to throw into the bonfire and, and the strange thing is that, i mean, part of that policy was to, to hire, what was it, another 5000 tax auditors to that was my mic. >> that's where you're going to spend the money. oh, i dropped it. no, i think you're still on. >> i'm so electric things >> i'm so electric that things are off are just bouncing off me. >> this is why you're a danger to water system well. to our water system as well. by the sound of it. >> yes, i have theory with one >> yes, i have a theory with one hand, and hand, tate with the other, and there's absolutely no difference between can between the two. as far as i can tell, happening at all. >> that's going to happen. they'll the non—doms. >> that's going to happen. thejnon—doms the non—doms. >> that's going to happen. thejnon—doms willa non—doms. >> that's going to happen. thejnon—doms will go on—doms. >> that's going to happen. thejnon—doms will go andioms. >> that's going to happen. thejnon—doms will go and live ;. the non—doms will go and live somewhere that's fine. somewhere else. that's fine. everyone will bit sad everyone will feel a bit sad because non—doms no because the non—doms are no longer like spit longer like around to like spit at what they at in knightsbridge. what they should the non—doms at in knightsbridge. what they sh stay. the non—doms at in knightsbridge. what they sh stay. but the non—doms at in knightsbridge. what they sh stay. but every the non—doms at in knightsbridge. what they sh stay. but every sore non—doms at in knightsbridge. what they sh stay. but every so often|—doms at in knightsbridge. what they sh stay. but every so often you ms to stay. but every so often you know just gets know a lamborghini just gets demolished . you know what i demolished. you know what i mean? as a public spectacle just gets lifted up by some massive mechanical claw swung a mechanical claw and swung into a

penthouse . yeah, nobody likes non—doms. >> i don't know anyone who's like, oh, hang on, think of the non—doms. you know non—doms. but you never know when start some kind of when we could start some kind of activist group and do something about it. >> they're much better >> i think they're much better value they value as entertainment than they are know, are just absolute, you know, cashing have cashing them in. anyway, we have the guardian we to the guardian. leah. we need to get through now. get through these now. >> guardian ministers >> so the guardian has ministers announced shoplifting crackdown. the more the government is investing more than £55 million in expanding facial recognition systems, including mobile vans that will scan crowded streets as scan crowded high streets as part of a renewed crackdown on shoplifting. so this is it's weird to see the government actually focusing on real crime instead of thought crime or hate crime or naughty tweets or whatever , so, i mean that that whatever, so, i mean that that part of it is nice. and we have seen, there's a lot of lawlessness on this . i've seen lawlessness on this. i've seen crazy videos of people just filling bags and just walking out of shops on, on unstopped. yeah, but there would be they'll have their faces recognised as they do it. >> yeah. which is a nice bonus unless they're wearing a face mask. >> i mean, thing that >> i mean, the thing that they'll like missy or

they'll become like missy or whatever, like whatever, his name was, like some tiktok yeah, some kind of tiktok star. yeah, but thing that worried but the thing that i'm worried about being used to about is, this is being used to sort in this facial. sort of bring in this facial. it's for faces. it's like a anpr for faces. yeah. know, all yeah. and, you know, then all of a you're and a sudden you're in china and they're you know, they're using it to, you know, to persecute political dissidents and stuff. yeah. so that's available now , but a that's not available now, but a lot big mega stores lot of these big mega stores like stuff, they like westfield and stuff, they already recognition already have facial recognition technology installed behind adverts . adverts. >> i mean, oh really? that's not a conspiracy theory, by the way. that's you sort of go in that's when you sort of go in and face. well, you're and do your face. well, you're already facially tracked and do your face. well, you're alrea(you facially tracked and do your face. well, you're alrea(you into ally tracked and do your face. well, you're alrea(you into some'acked and do your face. well, you're alrea(you into some of> metro daniel, here. >> metro daniel , to wrap up this >> metro daniel, to wrap up this section, this is the rats have taken over the nhs. >> they've colonised the wards and 18,000 test cases in three years. cockroaches flies and maggots. and that's not an environmentally friendly food alternative. that's actually just happening in wards. just happening in the wards. >> might be a way >> although that might be a way of like a win win situation

emerging out of this, i suppose. >> well, i mean, yeah, as far as, far as of the as, as far as some of the concerned kind of blender. yeah. well it's, concerned kind of blender. yeah. welan it's, concerned kind of blender. yeah. welan environmentally it's, it's an environmentally sustainable and actually quite tasty, believe i have tasty, believe it or not. i have eaten myself, especially in my videos, it's i read this videos, but it's i read this line here is insects are biting off. >> yeah , yeah. fighting legs off >> yeah, yeah. fighting legs off stuff. yeah. >> luckily it's not that they're just biting their legs. >> yeah. in situ i think there's got to be a point at which we do just kind of accept that the nhs is basically it's gone, hasn't it? it's a bit like somebody, that woman who was on, andrew doyle talking, we're going to talk about her later, the tickle versus. oh yeah. tickle versus giggle . and she said this about giggle. and she said this about ghndn giggle. and she said this about grindr. she said, there are women on there . you're not going women on there. you're not going to get rid of them right? to get rid of them now, right? yeah. it's up to gay to yeah. so it's up to gay men to set a site and just give set up a new site and just give up and that's feel up on. and that's how i feel about the nhs. we're going about the nhs. we're not going to nhs. to save the nhs. >> like a two >> yeah. we've got like a two tier system. it's of tier health system. it's sort of come quite quietly. but now come in quite quietly. but now anybody you anybody who can afford it, you know, to bupa or whoever.

know, goes to bupa or whoever. yeah. it's a bit of a shame. yeah. and it's a bit of a shame. the used to be. the nhs used to be used to be. i mean for about a decade. >> matron great. yeah. >> matron was great. yeah. >> matron was great. yeah. >> it's it's sad >> i mean it's sad. it's sad that this is happening. it's sad that this is happening. it's sad that billion enough. that 181 billion isn't enough. and well, much that 181 billion isn't enough. and do well, much that 181 billion isn't enough. and do you well, much that 181 billion isn't enough. and do you need much that 181 billion isn't enough. and do you need ? much that 181 billion isn't enough. and do you need ? yeah.jch that 181 billion isn't enough. and do you need ? yeah. and the more do you need? yeah. and the truth can see is truth is, as far as i can see is you throw everything at you could throw everything at it. you, it just it. yeah. but you, it just cannot keep up with the demand that's been placed on it. >> absolutely. or with the most extraordinary treatments which are of them are available now, some of them quite expensive. quite eye wateringly expensive. that's the front pages that's it for the front pages coming. non—doms getting coming. we have non—doms getting tied off and thrown in the river. courts make river. european courts make greta thunberg queen and these aren't just farting cows, these aren't just farting cows, these are m&s farting cows. we'll

and welcome back to headliners. your first look at wednesday's newspapers. i'm simon evans, still with leo and still here with leo kearse and daniel barker. so, daniel, we will daily will kick off with the daily

mail this mail in this section. this sounds like the sort of sounds exactly like the sort of helpful intervention that the people voted people of britain voted so enthusiast for in 2016. >> well, i mean, this is >> well, yeah, i mean, this is a story about the echr, being sued by 2000 swiss women, older women. i mean , i as far as i can women. i mean, i as far as i can see it, they're obviously activists. yeah i mean, they're swiss, so they're loaded and they've got nothing to do. so it's like it's too hot to sue the government, you know ? i the government, you know? i mean, i would love to sue our government to make hotter , government to make it hotter, quite frankly. but we can't do that. yes. the echr and our that. but yes. the echr and our mandating that, the swiss government are not doing enough to, you know, address the climate issue. and so they're now kind of, you know, legally required to do more to slow down global warming. i mean, good luck with that. >> it has created a sort of precedent. it seems to be understood that other people will be able to sue their will now be able to sue their governments if they don't feel that they are pursuing the climate agenda, whatever you want with enough want to call it, with enough

vigour. and yet it's also, as somebody said of something slightly days ago slightly similar, a few days ago on twitter, it was a bit like one of those old first season star episodes some star trek episodes where some mad alien is going to sue the whole of humanity for crimes against the universe. you know, it's got this kind of don't get the idea. pompous. yeah, well, it's partisan , isn't it? it's highly partisan, isn't it? >> it's like, you don't expect this kind of partisan stuff. it's almost like a lot of big institutions now act as kind of like the kind of strong arm for far left or leftist ideas . far left or leftist ideas. >> well, and that's changed dramatically because i remember not very ago, george not very long ago, george monbiot guy, for monbiot was one guy, for instance, the guardian instance, you know, the guardian environmentalist correspondent was like was absolutely, like catastrophizing about some new worldwide legislation that was going to come in, that was going to enable corporations to sue the eu if they tried to impose legislation that was against those corporations business interests. and now we've gone the exactly the opposite pole. >> and ironically, that would have helped people, you know, that have resulted

that would have resulted in a, you a growth in wealth and you know, a growth in wealth and better products for people. but this ridiculous. i this is this is ridiculous. i mean, want the court mean, i don't want the court has stepped in make government stepped to in make government make the government protect, protect its people. i don't want the government to be given lots of extra powers to protect me. i want to be protected the want to be protected from the government. i'm not worried about, know, weather in about, you know, the weather in 50 years as much as i'm 50 years time. as much as i'm worried communism worried about communism right now . how. >> now. >> absolutely right. leo, the guardian have just guardian again, they have just returned from the m&s foodhall across the road. >> m&s marks and >> yes. so m&s marks and spencer's has invested £1 million in tackling methane from burping. and farting cows i mean £1 million sounds like a lot. but that's just three items from the marks and spencer's food hall. you know what i mean? it's not going to be much of a dent. >> was just about get you >> that was just about get you lidl's, edible yeah, yeah i >> -- >> but apparently, apparently they're to cut 11,000 they're going to cut 11,000 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions, right, by giving the cows that supply marks and spencer's, well, they don't

supply the farmers supply marks and spencer's , but they're going and spencer's, but they're going to them feed supplement to give them a feed supplement denved to give them a feed supplement derived a derived from mineral salts and a by—product fermented by—product of fermented corn, which prevent which will, prevent them basically reduce their farts by about 8.4, which sounds weird. i just want normal cows eating normal grass. right >> let's give them corn. that's the solution. give the cows corn. yeah, that's it. solve the climate crisis. >> where we're heading? >> is that where we're heading? i on a over the i was up on a farm over the easter holidays. friends and friends, on the friends, right up on the scottish and i've got to scottish border. and i've got to say, digestive say, cows, their digestive systems are a mess. i mean, these were healthy cows by all accounts, it's an organic accounts, and it's an organic farm, they really rumble farm, but they really do rumble and belch and but the stuff they walk around and they're just endlessly . i mean, endlessly spilling. i mean, this is know, a is not, you know, it's not a clean machine , a cow. clean machine, a cow. >> it'sjust clean machine, a cow. >> it's just leave the cows alone. >> leave alone . why are the >> leave them alone. why are the left so obsessed with cows? i mean, i mean, we know why they just leave them alone. >> they want to make them disgusting. to fill disgusting. they want to fill your images of burping your head with images of burping and belching and farting. because will be to because then you will be more to prepared eat the, the cockroach burger or indeed just the lab

grown. sort of. was it cultured meat? well, people should google the biogenic carbon cycle. meat? well, people should google the you;enic carbon cycle. meat? well, people should google the you know, arbon cycle. meat? well, people should google the you know, methane le. meat? well, people should google the you know, methane plays >> you know, methane plays a crucial role in that. and a lot of meat producers know that even the green meat producers know that. breaks down in that. and methane breaks down in 12 whereas carbon from 12 years, whereas carbon from cars takes cars and factories takes a thousand years. so also just look into it, google it for five minutes. look into it, google it for five mirates. of very exciting new >> a lot of very exciting new meat is going to start appearing through the permafrost. oh yeah. dufing through the permafrost. oh yeah. during some mammoths. during the thaw. some mammoths. absolutely. think there absolutely. yeah i think there is going to be some very interesting restaurants interesting new restaurants opening watch out interesting new restaurants opethat. watch out interesting new restaurants opethat. watch �*atch out interesting new restaurants opethat. watch out| out interesting new restaurants opethat. watch out fort for that. yeah, watch out for east london. >> yeah . >> yeah. >> yeah. >> bad news from the farming community in the telegraph . community in the telegraph. daniel, at least those unwilling to switch to pisciculture and duck shoots. i saw evidence of this as well on the border, which one is this? >> this is the flooded farms. >> this is the flooded farms. >> oh, yeah. >> this is the flooded farms. >> ibh, yeah. >> this is the flooded farms. >> i mean h. >> this is the flooded farms. >> i mean ,. >> this is the flooded farms. >> i mean , look, i always >> i mean, look, i always i sympathise farmers. i like sympathise with farmers. i like farmers, you know, i find it difficult to, criticise them if they're saying things are bad or they're saying things are bad or they're not happy. i'm going to listen to them. but, i mean,

what they're saying is true , but what they're saying is true, but we have to see it in the wider context. that farm yields changed dramatically across history. you can go back to history. and you can go back to the 16th, 15th century. these things are not consistent. and i think people have become so used to everything just working so perfectly that all the shelves being stocked, you know, they forget that everything rests on, you know, the earth, the membership of the eu. >> exactly. yeah. >> exactly. yeah. >> so, i mean, i what these farmers are saying isn't great. and you know, sure. you know, the climate change making weather more dramatic absolutely is going to make this kind of thing happen. but it's always been dramatic. and this kind of thing has always happened. it's not good it's happening. not good that it's happening. >> cover off >> just just to cover off exactly happened . they exactly what has happened. they were it's were saying essentially it's rained the early few rained so much in the early few months this year their months of this year that their fields water fields remain under water and they'll unable they'll be unable to be a harvest at all. >> so yeah. yields are going >> so yeah. so yields are going to a lot. so wheat to be down a lot. so wheat yields are going down 15. yields are going to be down 15. winter barley is down 22% and oilseed rape is down this

oilseed rape is down 28. so this is drop since the is the biggest drop since the 19805. is the biggest drop since the 1980s. and is because of 1980s. and this is because of you we have had , you know, you know, we have had, you know, some crazy weather some pretty crazy weather recently. been cold. it's recently. it's been cold. it's been wet. i mean, that's standard for, for uk, but standard for, for the uk, but apparently particularly apparently it's particularly bad. this, shows, bad. but this, this shows, i mean, what we're doing , mean, the what we're doing, we're trying to stop climate change happening stopping we're trying to stop climate changfartingyening stopping we're trying to stop climate changfarting andg stopping we're trying to stop climate changfarting and stopping ping we're trying to stop climate changfarting and stopping people cows farting and stopping people having any kind of or luxury having any kind of fun or luxury whatsoever. but what we really need to be doing is just letting the population decline. naturally. britain can't grow enough food to support itself anyway. if yields are going to be dropping , then why are we be dropping, then why are we still pursuing this sort of ponzi scheme of bringing in as many people as possible you many people as possible and, you know, and also you think a major starvation event this, this autumn might be quite i think we could avoid a nine effect. we could avoid a nine effect. we could avoid a nine effect. we could avoid starvation event could avoid a starvation event by population by just letting the population the population is in decline. people aren't having kids. >> there are other ways you can lean or i think there a, lean in. or i think there was a, some genuinely sort of, environmentalist movement that go the sort of let's try

go beyond the sort of let's try and stop climate change. and they're more like, how do we adapt to it? yeah. and for adapt to it? yeah. and they, for instance, would say probably grow right ? i instance, would say probably grow right? i mean, grow rice, right? i mean, you probably rice harvest in probably get a rice harvest in before at this before june or july at this point. on this same point. and again on this same farm, have under farm, he does have fields under water. drove down there at water. we drove down there at night kawasaki mule, night on the kawasaki mule, killed like like killed the lights like like strictly absolutely covered in ducks. about 2000 ducks. right. quite interesting sort of bird watching through night watching through the night scope. but thinking, man, scope. but i was thinking, man, there's protein on your there's a lot of protein on your . yeah. do you know what i mean? i just turn around very i mean, just turn it around very quickly. one quickly. you can't shoot one because the others will take because all the others will take off. have have off. so you'd have to have coordinated they coordinated like 2000, but they used i mean, they used used to have i mean, they used to catch wild ducks for, for the market. >> and they'd funnelled them into big mesh tunnels stuff. into big mesh tunnels and stuff. amazing. into big mesh tunnels and stuff. am they. into big mesh tunnels and stuff. am they come out like, plucked >> they come out like, plucked and everything. yeah. >> dad had a punt gun >> and my dad had a punt gun which can shoot, you know, 20 of them at a time. that's the way i think these farmers should probably swiss probably speak to the 2000 swiss old ladies, actually. >> know, mean, it's >> and, you know, i mean, it's interesting the farmers interesting that the farmers aren't for aren't suing, the government for lack action on climate change.

>> yeah, on the contrary, some sourdough flour in the meantime. anyway, guardian. leo, this might be the last one from this section. australia feels like one of those created for one of those games created for small children where they have to try not to laugh . yeah, your to try not to laugh. yeah, your faces tickle. >> so tickle versus giggle, i mean, it's a great. what a great name for a court case, but it's a transgender woman tickle who's suing a female only online refuge called giggle for alleged. i don't know if i'd call an online refuge giggle . call an online refuge giggle. it's not the most, you know, sort of refugee sounding. >> i think it was a it was an all female site which included like advice exchange, like refugee advice exchange, but also could just be for like chat, a mumsnet. could chat, like a mumsnet. it could be it one stop be anything. it was a one stop fun refuge. yeah, a fun refuge, yeah. refuges. another great. >> so, so great. » so, so >> so, so yeah. this is, this is a, this is going to be a landmark case and it's going to set precedent i think across the west because this is roxanne tickle. so a transgender west because this is roxanne tickle. from a transgender west because this is roxanne tickle. from a south ender west because this is roxanne tickle. from a south wales. west because this is roxanne tickle suing| a south wales. west because this is roxanne tickle suing| social:h wales. west because this is roxanne tickle suing| social mediaes. she's suing the social media platform after platform giggle for girls after being blocked from using the app. is the sort of app. and this is the sort of sex, biological sex versus

gender identity battle. because, you know, she's saying, well , i you know, she's saying, well, i identify as a woman, so i should be allowed in this, you know, female only space, whereas the app female only space, whereas the app owner is saying, well, no, this is this is just for females, biological sexes, you know , is immutable. know, is immutable. >> so it's the defining thing here. >> yeah, yeah, yeah. so so, you know, you sorry, but you can't come and have , you know, come in and i have, you know, she's, she's got a birth certificate she's female certificate stating she's female . she's affirmation . she's a gender affirmation surgery her mind surgery and feels in her mind psychologically she's a woman, but looks like the but she looks a lot like the drummer iron maiden. so you drummer from iron maiden. so you know, tough. it is tough know, it's tough. it is a tough balance make. she was balance to make. but she was obviously making women obviously making some women uncomfortable, obviously making some women uncomforhave, obviously making some women uncomforhave come to light in wouldn't have come to light in the first place, would it? >> that's the thing i always think, well, if you know, i mean at somebody has at some point somebody has complained, some you complained, you know, some you know, it's not like nobody's just this just been pointed out that this is connect people is this app is to connect people to real life. to meet in real life. >> you know, if >> yeah, right. you know, if there be confusion, it's there could be confusion, it's like you you're going like if you think you're going to with another to be meeting up with another biological you biological woman and then you turn be, then that

turn out not to be, then that could that that could fall on turns out to be a tickle. >> and then that's when things can little bit, you know, can get a little bit, you know, i don't i mean, it i mean, i don't know, i mean, it crosses line, the app, the crosses a line, the app, the app' app, if that's their prerequisite joining prerequisite for joining the app' prerequisite for joining the app, that's it, isn't it? i app, then that's it, isn't it? i think it's going to be interesting. we'll watch. but i will say this, sal grover, the ceo, and i follow her on twitter. sal tweet. is very twitter. sal tweet. she is very capable media personality. i think have been an think she might have been an actress or something. anyway, she's, you know, it she's, i think you know, it feels to me like like the, the gender critical gang are in the driving seat lately. do you know what i mean? some are jk rowling. >> well, j.k. rowling would really wouldn't she? >> yeah, is on. >> yeah, she is on. >> this one to her. >> i'll leave this one to her. to be honest. >> we're halfway point >> we're at the halfway point coming racist week, sexist coming up. racist week, sexist museums, soft headed scrabble. it's the culture wars quartette. we'll see you in

it's thing. sounds it's a racist thing. sounds more like thing. it's a racist thing. sounds more likewell, thing. it's a racist thing. sounds more likewell, well, ng. it's a racist thing. sounds more likewell, well, as with >> well, well, as with most things racist, things that are racist, according it's according to the studies, it's actually issue usual . actually a class issue as usual. yeah. and nobody wants to talk about that. and they should, about that. no. and they should, isn't about that. no. and they should, isn'they're turn us all >> they're trying to turn us all into because my into marxists because that's my that's analysis comes that's how my analysis comes back at more often than not how. >> now. >> but the issue here, >> but the real issue here, i mean, it's turned me into a raging capitalist raging anarcho capitalist libertarian , because the real libertarian, because the real issue there this, the issue is that there is this, the pubuc issue is that there is this, the public and they're public sector, and they're saying, can down to saying, oh, we can go down to a four workweek. and, you four day workweek. and, you know, trials. and four day workweek. and, you kn course, trials. and four day workweek. and, you kn course, the trials. and four day workweek. and, you kn course, the trials trials. and four day workweek. and, you kn course, the trials succeed.nd four day workweek. and, you kn course, the trials succeed ifi of course, the trials succeed if you're trial, it passes, you're in a trial, if it passes, you're in a trial, if it passes, you down to a four day you go down to a four day workweek, going make you go down to a four day workthatz, going make you go down to a four day workthat trial going make you go down to a four day workthat trial works. 1g make you go down to a four day workthat trial works. you make you go down to a four day workthat trial works. you know; sure that trial works. you know what really the issue what i mean? so really the issue is you know, number one, what i mean? so really the issue is these you know, number one, what i mean? so really the issue is these workers iv, number one, what i mean? so really the issue is these workers canmeer one, what i mean? so really the issue is these workers can geter one, what i mean? so really the issue is these workers can get all ne, if these workers can get all their work done four days, their work done in four days, then fire 1 in of them and then fire 1 in 5 of them and they can all work five days and work just hard you were work just as hard as you were working four days. how working on those four days. how do this is do you like that? this is taxpayers money. the real taxpayers money. so? so the real issue is that we're way issue is that we're paying way too wasteful people in too much for wasteful people in the public sector. >> but we do all know, don't we? parkinson's famously , work parkinson's law famously, work expands fill the time expands to fill the time allotted completion, allotted for its completion, and this applies to large

this applies much more to large organisations does to organisations than it does to individuals. and the larger they get, the more imponderable it is, the more that work will create new work. if you need it to be, and if people are going to be, and if people are going to paid. but i have lot of to get paid. but i have a lot of sympathy i'm assuming sympathy for what i'm assuming we're garbage we're talking about, garbage collection or, council gardeners, people who work in the that of thing, the parks, that sort of thing, very harder for them very much harder for them to kind right. start at kind of go right. i start at nine and i end at five, and i have they're the ones. >> they're the ones that are actually doing a real job that actually benefits somebody. instead an instead of like sitting in an office policy or office working out policy or drafting, the endless drafting, you know, the endless documents mandarins. drafting, you know, the endless docis1ents mandarins. drafting, you know, the endless docis there mandarins. drafting, you know, the endless doc is there anything andarins. drafting, you know, the endless docis there anything we'vens. >> is there anything we've missed here, daniel, not exactly. mean , it's pretty exactly. no. i mean, it's pretty straightforward. i mean, the welsh government came up with this. this seems to be this. it's this seems to be a kind of like, own goal. it seems to be a kind of left wing policy. and the left come along and no, that's not okay. and and go. no, that's not okay. and so far concerned, it's so as far as i'm concerned, it's like, they've shot like, you know, they've shot themselves let it themselves in the foot. let it go. seems to also be go. i mean, it seems to also be going the celtic fringes. >> the welsh government and the snp doing it, although snp are both doing it, although
