11:17 pm
nhs doctors to get puberty blockers. author of bombshell nhs doctors to get puberty blockeinto.uthor of bombshell nhs doctors to get puberty blockeinto trans of bombshell nhs doctors to get puberty blockeinto trans care)mbshell nhs doctors to get puberty blockeinto trans care reveals.. report into trans care reveals. as you say, it's the final cass report. doctor hilary cass. it's pretty damning. it's a scathing 400 page dossier into nhs gender care, and every single page just says glyn was right. >> yeah, basically what i like about this stuff is there's always like a director's cut. you get these major bombshells and all of even worse and then all of this even worse stuff out, now it's stuff comes out, and now it's that people coaching kids. >> yeah. they kids. >> yeah. kids. » yeah. >> yeah. and they were in many, many these were children many cases, these were children who had a history of physical or sexual abuse. up to 1 in 5 children who attended gender services, and services, for example. yes and they're much instead of they're very much instead of sort saying, can help sort of saying, how can we help this more like this person? it's more like gaming here's what gaming the system. here's what you the you need to say to get the puberty blockers, which insane. >> p- insane. >> it's amazing because >> i think it's amazing because a the revelations, a lot of the cass revelations, a lot of the revelations we've seen recent years this seen in recent years about this stuff , shown lot of stuff, has shown that a lot of these require a therapeutic these kids require a therapeutic care because either they've been abused internalised abused or they have internalised homophobia, they're struggling with their sexuality. and this is suggesting that those things they were to them from they were told to keep them from they were told to keep them from the clinicians so that they
11:18 pm
could just rush through and get the drugs. yeah >> and that's why i say glennon was right, because graham linehan kept our linehan and some people kept our heads. people people heads. people like you, people like this channel. like me, hopefully this channel. but common but if you lost your common sense, to think, oh sense, you start to think, oh yeah, do this children yeah, we can do this to children . but i anyone who anyone who got that should be got lost in that should be ashamed . ashamed. >> premise, steve, of >> the whole premise, steve, of gender care, that gender affirming care, is that a child comes along and says, i think the wrong body, think i'm in the wrong body, and you are. here are you say, yes, you are. here are the drugs. of course, that's the drugs. and of course, that's precisely mean, labour precisely i mean, the labour government , the labour, next government, the labour, the next labour government. and the current is actually current tory policy is actually to that therapeutic to ban that therapeutic approach. that approach. and they call that a ban trans conversion therapy. approach. and they call that a ban surelyns conversion therapy. approach. and they call that a ban surelyns cowith;ion therapy. approach. and they call that a ban surelyns cowith;ion cass|py. but surely now with the cass review, we can sort of review, we can we can sort of get back to sort of just sensible critical thinking and say, medicalize kids say, let's not medicalize kids on a pseudo on the basis of a pseudo religious belief system in a gendered soul, at least separating out the word conversion therapy or the words conversion therapy or the words conversion therapy or the words conversion therapy and looking at it or having a conversation, the idea that if you can't even probe, if you're not allowed to ask questions. >> before we get to that, though, i did like and this imagine a situation you
11:19 pm
imagine a situation where you say mention say to a child, don't mention the have you just the abuse, who have you just become? that's insane. become? yeah, that's insane. >> don't don't mention that >> or don't don't mention that you're your you're struggling with your sexuality. even though the cass review over 80% review has shown that over 80% of referred to these of the kids referred to these services were either gay or bisexual, means, of bisexual, which means, of course, they're just effectively fixing medical izing, sterilising gay kids. >> yeah. so i didn't have time to read the whole 400 page report because i'm a slow reader, but there's it's like a 70 point summary and recommendations and going through is incredibly through that, it is incredibly evenly handed. so it's like evenly handed. so it's not like you it and go, oh, this you can read it and go, oh, this is one side. attributes is taken one side. it attributes blame the toxicity of the blame about the toxicity of the debate and how that shuts down things being have things like being able to have a conversation about it. and it even points out, well, through the the general the whole thing, the general theme no theme is if you've got no evidence, you've got evidence, don't act, you've got weak . get more weak evidence. get more evidence, don't proceed evidence, don't, don't proceed forwards sort of forwards without any sort of actual research or study into this. and that the well, this. and that is the well, that's the damning indictment left, right and centre. >> had complete this was >> we've had a complete this was all there was no all an evidence. there was no scientific the notion all an evidence. there was no scia1tific the notion all an evidence. there was no scia gender the notion all an evidence. there was no scia gender identity1e notion all an evidence. there was no scia gender identity evertion all an evidence. there was no scia gender identity ever atn all an evidence. there was no scia gender identity ever at any of a gender identity ever at any point. but it did get toxic.
11:20 pm
she's absolutely right. what worries that now a lot of worries me is that now a lot of people suggesting those people are suggesting that those of are sounding the alarm of us who are sounding the alarm and not, in fact, contributing that toxicity were an example of the toxicity because they they saw of disagreement, saw any kind of disagreement, i mean, o'brien has mean, i think james o'brien has suggested he was one of the ones who was trying to detoxify the debate. that's hilarious coming from him. yeah. >> mean, appalling. >> i mean, that's appalling. i mean, yeah , to just say that if mean, yeah, to just say that if you if you had if you tried to sound the alarm about basically abusing children, you're part of the toxicity is disgusting. but people will do this. they'll revise. like revise. they'll be like the lockdowns. i on lockdowns. they'll say, i was on the right of this the whole the right side of this the whole time. already bbc time. we already saw bbc newsnight other and newsnight the other night and maybe better than the maybe they were better than the rest mainstream media, rest of the mainstream media, but already saying, but they're already saying, oh yeah, even bbc got yeah, you know, even the bbc got it but we got it right on it wrong, but we got it right on this people more this show. people are more and more not got more the bbc not only got it wrong, responsible for wrong, they were responsible for pushing the gender identity ideology to children in children's programmes. >> to be look at >> there needs to be a look at the bbc in the way they behaved in of and likewise, in all of this. and likewise, i think there to be think there needs to be investigations stonewall, investigations into stonewall, mermaids, gendered intelligence, all have mermaids, gendered intelligence, all this have mermaids, gendered intelligence,

11:22 pm
being all snarky, but since 2016, the pound's been weaker . 2016, the pound's been weaker. it is a benefit in one direction that pure benefit , that it that is pure benefit, that it means what we sell is cheaper, more people buy it . that's how more people buy it. that's how we so well. recent we do so well. the recent growth, has driven growth, though, has been driven by an increase in by apparently an increase in sales, money in sales, increase in money in professional , which i professional services, which i think is massages. >> the thing about this, >> i mean, the thing about this, though, steve, this isn't though, steve, is this isn't news. this a news. we've known this for a while that all of while now that really all of these prognostications of utter doom, going reach doom, that we're going to reach our result of our economy as a result of brexit come true. they brexit didn't come true. they didn't even the didn't manifest. even the guardian this, you guardian has admitted this, you know, so we know that it's not really ever to be the really ever going to be the case. problem with with this really ever going to be the case.of problem with with this really ever going to be the case.of prlike m with with this really ever going to be the case.of prlike you ith with this really ever going to be the case.of prlike you say, 'ith this really ever going to be the case.of prlike you say, this his kind of and like you say, this is one sided other is a bit one sided the other way. i brexit could have way. i mean brexit could have all sorts of advantages and disadvantages. nick, isn't disadvantages. but nick, isn't it case most of the it the case that most of the disadvantages come about because we've kind of we've approached this as kind of damage than damage limitation, rather than going look, this going in and saying, look, this is great opportunity. going in and saying, look, this is yeah, opportunity. going in and saying, look, this is yeah, that's'tunity. going in and saying, look, this is yeah, that's the ty. going in and saying, look, this is yeah, that's the tragedy of >> yeah, that's the tragedy of brexit. farage and brexit. i mean, farage and people to get it. people did great work to get it. but then if you were to be but then if you were going to be a accusation would a bit if the accusation would be, do enough to then be, did we do enough to then make happen make it actually happen once, once we weren't just
11:23 pm
once we once we weren't just winning, it not enough. winning, it was not enough. yeah. about the yeah. and it's all about the benefits of brexit, which haven't but haven't really happened. but this news. as steve this is some good news. as steve said, not good as said, it's not maybe as good as you because it's you think because when it's updated, it'll, you know, it'll go if you adjust go down a bit. and if you adjust for it turns out we for inflation, it turns out we import and exported less than 2018. it's 2018. but at least it's positive, i thought i thought for we suddenly for a second we suddenly manufacturing happened. for a second we suddenly maritzacturing happened. for a second we suddenly maritzac largely happened. for a second we suddenly maritzac largely financial»pened. but it is largely financial and professional but it is largely financial and professi�*turned a sort of, haven't turned into a sort of, you know, a manufacturing powerhouse. tertiary, powerhouse. it's still tertiary, but i mean, on the other hand, you know, i get a bit bored of all these articles about, oh, look, look, brexit is called look, oh look, brexit is called this economic this caused this economic disaster no brexit has been disaster or no brexit has been really the economy. really good for the economy. >> no one voted on >> who cares. no one voted on the whether were the basis of whether we were going richer or poorer. we going to be richer or poorer. we voted on basis of can we voted it on the basis of can we have there are these bureaucrats in brussels who too much have there are these bureaucrats in bruover who too much have there are these bureaucrats in bruover whccountry, 0 much have there are these bureaucrats in bruover whccountry, andjch have there are these bureaucrats in bruover whccountry, and we power over our country, and we can't them out. well, can't vote them out. well, now they're and that's they're not involved. and that's great. well, i'd really >> so result? well, i'd really love is people were definitely thinking they thinking that before they voted. so they knew what they were voted. people voted. i'm not saying people didn't they didn't know what they were voting then jacob voting for. but then even jacob rees be rees mogg said there would be some costs and long some short term costs and long term so new story
11:24 pm
term gains. so when a new story comes up and says, here's an example of short cost, example of a short term cost, why we have to deny why does why do we have to deny it? not just yeah, it? why not just go, yeah, that's not what that's okay, but that's not what the it's not the newspapers do. it's not what what pundits i don't what pundits on tv do. i don't care way. care either way. >> i voted the basis that >> i voted on the basis that laws govern this country laws that govern this country should made this country. should be made in this country. simple i'm a democrat simple as that. i'm a democrat in of tony benn, and in the spirit of tony benn, and that's is. anyway, let's that's all it is. anyway, let's move it that's all it is. anyway, let's move men it that's all it is. anyway, let's move men don't it that's all it is. anyway, let's move men don't get it that's all it is. anyway, let's move men don't get the it that's all it is. anyway, let's move men don't get the benefits seems men don't get the benefits of nick. of working. nick. >> so it's slash benefits >> yeah, so it's slash benefits to get more men into work. imf urges and it's stride again urges and it's mel stride again as saying as we mentioned before saying he's do whatever it he's going to do whatever it takes get britain working. takes to get britain working. and claiming while and he's claiming that while inactivity rate is lower than many economic heavyweights, including the usa, france and italy cuts and welfare italy, our tax cuts and welfare reforms grow. the labour reforms will grow. the labour force by 300,000 people, which i sort of believe when i see it , sort of believe when i see it, because what are these tax cuts? i've them, but i've not noticed them, but apparently will. so it's apparently they will. so it's this they're a this kind of they're doing a sort carrot stick sort of carrot and stick approach that they're to approach that they're going to cut the part is cut taxes. but the stick part is the part . we the depression part. we mentioned earlier saying that that's you know, that's not real. and, you know, start working basically, yeah. that's not real. and, you know, stathe orking basically, yeah. that's not real. and, you know, stathe ideag basically, yeah. that's not real. and, you know, stathe idea is3asically, yeah. that's not real. and, you know, stathe idea is thatally, yeah. that's not real. and, you know, stathe idea is that iny, yeah. that's not real. and, you know, stathe idea is that in theeah. that's not real. and, you know, stathe idea is that in the claim so the idea is that in the claim
11:25 pm
is that we're actually competing better than we are, but the imf research is based on 38 oecd industrialised economies, and it's basically saying , hey, we it's basically saying, hey, we need to sort it out. >> yeah. whenever mel stride comes out to say something, i'm always braced because it's normally thing , normally an unpopular thing, isn't what do you make of isn't it? what do you make of this, it's interesting this, i think it's interesting to at groups we're to look at which groups we're talking you've got the talking about. so you've got the tax but also getting talking about. so you've got the tax of but also getting talking about. so you've got the tax of cutting but also getting talking about. so you've got the tax of cutting benefits. getting talking about. so you've got the tax of cutting benefits. and ng talking about. so you've got the tax of cutting benefits. and the rid of cutting benefits. and the urge to yeah , right. urge is to go, yeah, right. right. two point noise. wow. oh. benefits gary burley cut them. benefits gary burley cut them. benefits 2.7 million people are on long terms sick most of which are southern ennui. 2.6 million students. maybe they can't be in that much of the workforce. they can't get a part time job. 1.6 million staying at home, looking after family. well, if you're being a carer, you're saving it as money and you always want some the some people looking after the home. thing. home. that's always been thing. 1.1 million early retirement point. no point. that's not there's no benefits going to these people. so think mentions in so i think and it mentions in the article it's about changing the article it's about changing the retirement age pensioners. they you to force they are coming for you to force you back to work. so don't think
