with them rowing back on that really critical green energy policy to cut greenhouse gases by 75, then we obviously had peter morrow's arrest on thursday bringing that, you know , the party back into the shadows of that time last year. but today they will be hoping that he can finish this week on a high. however in the midst of everything else, you know, the pro—independence campaign has its own issues and they'll be hoping for some cohesion and unity today as those groups march through . now there is, march through. now there is, believe it or not, quite even a split within the pro—independence movement because, you know , green msps because, you know, green msps will. they won't march alongside alba msps . and indeed, that alba msps. and indeed, that division is what's led to another march happening here in the same city and only a couple of weeks time. that, of course, with the scottish greens, you know, threatening to leave the coalition government with the snp, leaving them a minority government that is also going to

be high on humza yousafs mind this week. but for today at least, there's going to be a pause to the pro—palestinian protests here in glasgow and the pro—independence movement will they'll be hoping for big numbers and a big attendance today to show that there is still an appetite for many people here in scotland . people here in scotland. interesting. all right, tony, thanks a lot , tony, yeah. well, thanks a lot, tony, yeah. well, it's 2014. they said was the once in a lifetime vote, and it would be the once in a generation vote. and that was it. but there we go. that's the. >> well, hopefully they're thinking that maybe they'll be lucky time round, but lucky second time round, but we'll see if it ever we'll have to see if it ever takes place. rempe you now takes place. rempe for you now to the top stories to look through the top stories of the. today, we're delighted to and to be joined by olympian and broadcaster kriss akabusi and apprentice winner and entrepreneur marnie swindells. good morning guys. morning, morning. thank you. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> congratulations, stephanie. thank you. look at you a super fan you guys. >> so i'm feeling very relaxed . >> so i'm feeling very relaxed. thank you for coming in. but should we start about the canary

island protest that's happening today if you tell us a bit more chris. >> yes. so basically , gran >> yes. so basically, gran canaria i think 1113 islands, whatever, very popular destination. there are 2.2 million inhabitants s there are 13.9 million visitors and there's a stretch on the resources, and the protesters are basically saying, great gdp, great 35% gdp. however, we're sleeping in our cars, on the beaches, not out of choice, but out of necessity . and i can out of necessity. and i can understand their complaint. you know, we've been had a lot of , know, we've been had a lot of, press talking about migrants crossing our water. yeah. oh, chris, that's completely different. well, no. no no no no no no, hold on no no hold on. >> abroad going on holiday. no no. 110. >> no. >> well no no no no no. would that be a lovely idea. but a lot of the brits abroad got of the brits abroad have got second homes in, in

second and third homes in, in the canary islands. well no, no no no no. but it's not different because, because what you're doing, you're displacing the inhabitants. our complaint is not about the not necessarily about the migrants, the stress on the migrants, but the stress on the nhs. yeah. stress on schools. so it's on infrastructure. and what they're our they're saying is our infrastructure , is, is not infrastructure is, is, is not just creaking, it's this, this dissembling in front of a i think, i think that is the issue , though. >> i think the infrastructure is the issue. i don't think i think the issue. i don't think i think the anger has been slightly misdirected don't misdirected here because i don't think we think tourism is the issue. we know that tourism has huge potential economies potential to boost economies growth. it can it can really enhance the people of the canaries livelihoods if it filters down. so think and filters down. so i think and a lot of the papers are reporting this, that it's model. it's this, that it's the model. it's the that the business the fact that the business classes being supported by classes are being supported by the classes the the political classes and the money staying at the top. if we can just figure that can just figure out how that comes down. i think would comes down. i think they would be tourism. be great for tourism. >> you brits need to be >> do you think brits need to be more though, when they are more aware though, when they are visiting the islands visiting visiting the islands that this is an that maybe, you know, this is an island is overstretched island which is overstretched andifs island which is overstretched

and it's got limited resources, so maybe need to respect it a so maybe we need to respect it a bit more when we are travelling there. british people, there. as british people, i don't know if the onus is on the brits to resolve that issue. >> they're going there. >> i think they're going there. they're their money. they're taking their money. they're taking their money. they're spend they're taking their money. they're going spend they're taking their money. they're going to spend they're taking their money. they're going to enjoy. spend they're taking their money. they're going to enjoy. andznd they're going to enjoy. and really that should considered really that should be considered somewhat the somewhat of a benefit to the host because they're host country because they're pounng host country because they're pouring their money and pouring in all their money and their earned money. but their hard earned money. but it's the infrastructure it's just the infrastructure on that side. >> don't think it's reaching >> i don't think it's reaching the canary islands, the right, the canary islands, right. rely right. they solely rely on tourism mostly tourism abroad, mostly brits, tenerife, canaria, tenerife, gran canaria, lanzarote. the problem is the local government . the protesters local government. the protesters say there's a massive protest today. i think 70,000 people are going to congregate in santa cruz, tenerife there's been cruz, in tenerife there's been cars and placards saying tourists go home. you're not welcome. the problem is right, it's not the brits going there spending money, it's the local government protest government who the protest protesters accusing of protesters are accusing of hoarding money and not hoarding the money and not dishing wealth to dishing out the wealth to improve their own lives. >> i think it. i think >> i think that's it. i think it's misdirected. think the it's misdirected. i think the i think the canaries and the local people need tourism. i think tourists there. tourists want to go there. i

think gap is that middle think the gap is that middle man. see all the time in man. we see it all the time in places like the caribbean as well, the hotel well, where it's the big hotel chains that benefit, not the people ground. i think people on the ground. i think that's issue. chris. that's the issue. chris. >> i've got got >> i've got, i've got i've got to say there no difference to say there is no difference between the between tourists going to the canaries spending canaries and spending billions of migrants crossing of pounds to migrants crossing the channel. >> no, ben, i'm not >> no, no, no, no, ben, i'm not having it. no no no, not having it. no no no, i'm not having it. no no no, i'm not having ben. it is about the infrastructure it's about infrastructure and it's about the not talking the resources. i'm not talking about poor migrants haven't about the poor migrants haven't got money. and those of us got any money. and those of us who buying up all the who are buying up all the infrastructure so that someone who's born in 40 ventura or tenerife can't actually live in a house has got to sleep on this in his car because you want your second or third home. so, so, so it's about the infrastructure and the resources. that was my point, ben. yeah my point is that generally migrants coming across the channel aren't initially contributing to the economy. >> they're being housed in hotels for £12 billion a day. yeah, i'm not gonna argue with that. >> whereas i'm not gonna argument for that. i'm talking

about the resources. all right. >> should move on? there's >> should we move on? there's another , story. don't if another, story. i don't know if you've video doing the you've seen this video doing the rounds the internet the rounds on the internet over the past couple days. it's front past couple of days. it's front page the papers as well. page on all the papers as well. so at the pro—palestine march, i think it last week. and think it was last week. and we've the video. let's we've got the video. let's show you it's a jewish you the video. it's a jewish protester goes the protester who goes to the pro—palestine march, and a met police says , pretty police officer says, pretty much, you're jewish. you shouldn't here. shouldn't be here. >> here's i can't >> here's the clip. i can't believe was jewish. believe this was openly jewish. >> pro—palestinian believe this was openly jewish. >> if pro—palestinian believe this was openly jewish. >> if you»ro—palestinian believe this was openly jewish. >> if you choosezstinian believe this was openly jewish. >> if you choose to nian believe this was openly jewish. >> if you choose to remain . march. if you choose to remain. labuschagne remain here. you were arrested . we can't deal were arrested. we can't deal with all of them. 90 need to keep going before you get arrested. >> so marnie, did you have a right to be there? >> absolutely. i think the police are in the wrong with this one. i think he's not causing a stir. he's not trying to, disrupt the actual process in any way. he's been censored just by being just by being there. and i think he has every right to be there.

>> don't you think the police were worried about his safety? you're at a pro palestinian march. a jewish man. march. you're a jewish man. you're to hide you're not trying to hide your identity . he shouldn't have to. identity. he shouldn't have to. but a and place, but there's a time and place, and i. >> a time and place for being. >> a time and place for being. >> he was just being. he was just being. >> we know. do we just being. >> wknow know. do we just being. >> wknow the low. do we just being. >> wknow the police. we don't know the police. >> was antagonising. they >> he was antagonising. they must there must must have. there must be a reason why said he was reason why they said he was antagonising is antagonising everything is everything antagonising everything is eve ifthing antagonising everything is eve if he|g antagonising everything is eve if he is, they're making >> if he is, they're making slurs and antagonising people. then maybe along. then granted, maybe move along. but from my understanding his presence should not be censored. he should not have to move along by just being. and what kind of territory are we going to enter into start moving people into if we start moving people away because make away just because they make other uncomfortable? away just because they make other should uncomfortable? away just because they make other should be :omfortable? away just because they make other should be spacetable? there should be space for everyone . his right to on everyone. his right to be on that street as is as valid as that street is as is as valid as the pro—palestinian march. >> chris, you think? yeah. >> so context is everything and we don't know. we've seen a little clip . i actually feel for little clip. i actually feel for the police, we've all got cameras and phones and every

single thing that they do is now being videoed, you have to ask the question, was that policeman being anti—semitic or was he concerned for the citizen and his safety in in any sort of way? now, of course, the citizen has a right to be on that street, but there's this vibrant protest going on that has been actually a lot of the language now because of people like the former home secretary demonising the march , a legitimate march, the march, a legitimate march, and we don't know what this guy, i don't want to put any words in his mouth. i don't know what this guy was doing. >> apparently, chris, he was leaving a synagogue and needed to cross road. okay. well, yeah. >> well, yeah. okay. i see my understanding was that he was actually antagonistic, understanding was that he was actlclear antagonistic, understanding was that he was actlclear if antagonistic, understanding was that he was actlclear if he's ntagonistic, understanding was that he was actlclear if he's just onistic, understanding was that he was actlclear if he's just alistic, understanding was that he was actlclear if he's just a bloke, yet clear if he's just a bloke, a british man wanting to cross the street. well you've got a skullcap shouldn't prevent skullcap on. shouldn't prevent you street . in you from crossing the street. in fact, police should have fact, the police should have assisted cross the street assisted him to cross the street if that's what he was trying to

do. >> think do. >> that could do. that could start >> i think that that could start a dangerous precedent. if a very dangerous precedent. if we people just we start moving people away just because by their because they're just by their their being is creating their own being is creating distance . distance. >> i yeah, my main thing was it's a safety thing because it's more like i don't think he should conceal his identity , but should conceal his identity, but the fact that if you're surrounded by so many pro—palestinian protesters, you don't know how they're going to react don't know how they're going to reaiwell, exactly. so if it >> well, exactly. so if it kicked off. >> but should we should be >> but should we should we be doing that? >> but should we should we be doiishould’ >> but should we should we be doiishould we be encouraging this >> should we be encouraging this idea that someone, person idea that someone, one person versus people, person versus 100 people, that person has out of the way has to move out of the way because we can't trust the march? should be march? surely the onus should be on behaving correctly. on the march behaving correctly. you're on a rightful way. not one person having to move. what allowance? >> okay if, god forbid, >> what? okay if, god forbid, something had kicked off and the british citizen was put in physical danger and someone had seen a police , why didn't you seen a police, why didn't you try and stop it? i mean, i'm just trying to say you're damned if you do. if you're damned if you don't. the policeman is doing very job in doing a very tough job right in

the public eye. >> i'm you on that. i >> oh, i'm with you on that. i think the police get a lot of stick. i think they get a really hard and as said, hard time. and as you said, they're constantly under scrutiny but scrutiny for what they do. but i do think on this occasion, i think we're entering a real dangerous think we're entering a real darit's)us the incident >> it's not the first incident with police. with the police. there was a video a couple weeks back of video a couple of weeks back of a woman complaining that someone had swastika placard, had a swastika placard, and the copper to copper said, what you want me to do and on and so do about it? and so on and so on. shall we move to on. anyway, shall we move on to another story? yeah. rishi sunak yesterday what? yesterday launched his what? announced benefit announced rather his benefit reform. saying reform. so he's basically saying that depression and that those with depression and anxiety, one strand anxiety, this is one strand of the they won't the reforms they won't be allowed sickness payments from work. the benefits work. apparently the benefits bill for sickness payments is something like £50 billion a year at the moment. and he reckons it carries on reckons that if it carries on the it is, there's going to the way it is, there's going to be 20 by the end be another 20 billion by the end of decade. so are we money of the decade. so are we money a nafion of the decade. so are we money a nation of wets? do we need to? dare i say it, i'll get cancelled for man up, cancelled for this man up, i mean person up. >> yeah. okay. >> yeah. okay. >> am , i am to some extent >> i am, i am to some extent with rishi sunak on this. >> i'm not completely heartless. people sometimes need time. people sometimes need time. people through things and people go through things and

they moment to they need that moment to breathe. i do think is breathe. but i do think there is an of notes and an abuse of sick notes and people abusing the system. and i think more stringent make think the more stringent we make it, people that really it, the more people that really do that support get do need that support can get that support . do need that support can get that support. i think that support. i also think there's lot be said about a there's a lot to be said about a good days work , and i think it good days work, and i think it goes just financial goes beyond just the financial benefits. but what it does for your productivity, you meet, your productivity, who you meet, your productivity, who you meet, your of self esteem. i your sense of self esteem. i think getting the nation into work, especially i understand that there's1 million job that there's 1 million job vacancies. i think the more people working, the better for their own, their health. their own, their own health. i think it's good way forward, think it's a good way forward, but surely there's no limit but surely there's no time limit if got mental if you've got mental health problems, put a time problems, you cannot put a time limit say within a year i'll limit and say within a year i'll be feeling great and i'll be back to work. >> what do we say to those people are going through, people who are going through, you term illnesses you know, long term illnesses who anxiety, who are facing anxiety, depression , and it's an endless depression, and it's an endless cycle for them? >> i understand it and honestly i empathise with them. but i the reality is, is that the world keeps turning and at some point you have to just sort of pull yourself up by your bootstraps

and forward. think a year and move forward. i think a year is a long time allow someone is a long time to allow someone the to come to terms with the grace to come to terms with whatever they've got going on and and find a route out, and try and find a route out, but i think that's rishi but i think that's what rishi sunak at, is there sunak is getting at, is there needs intention do needs to be that intention to do better. needs to be that better. there needs to be that intention back your intention to get back on your feet and i with that, feet and i think with that, people's will change for people's lives will change for the anyway. chris, i got a lot of >> anyway. chris, i got a lot of flack yesterday because said flack yesterday because i said when it comes to anxiety and depression, that depression, i suggested that if people more exercise and people did more exercise and maybe focus a bit more on their diet nutrition, that would diet and nutrition, that would go a little towards go a little way towards making them better. as an them feel a bit better. as an olympian, you board with olympian, are you on board with that am ijust olympian, are you on board with that am i just being olympian, are you on board with that am ijust being bit that or am i just being a bit too simplistic? >> you know, look, you can't have a general rule like that. yeah.i have a general rule like that. yeah. i think again, context specific i don't know the person's going through. i do think the generation z have got a tough sticking as much as we told them about being aware of your mental health and all that sort of stuff, and then when they're aware their mental health, you say, no, but you can't mentally ill. get back

there is a theft a minute in england. what does this mean dunng england. what does this mean during of living crisis? during a cost of living crisis? this saturday morning on this is saturday morning live on gb news, britain's news channel

>> welcome back here with ben and steph on saturday morning live only on gb news. don't forget to keep sending your emails and questions. gbnews.com/yoursay but first of all, new analysis released by the labour party today shows that 1000 shoplifting offences take place each day across england and wales. wow. okay, well, that equates to something like almost a theft every minute of the day. so different . of the day. so different. freedom of information requests from police forces have also shown that charges have fallen by a quarter over the past five years. so they're getting away with it basically. >> yeah, it's a kind of double edged sword because with these kind of statistics, what it kind of statistics, what does it say living say about the cost of living crisis. says is

crisis. and also it says what is the government doing about such shoplifting with these shoplifting cases with these kind of stats. >> doing the round. what does it say about the government's handung say about the government's handling as you handling of the crime? as you said, do these said, stefan, what do these stats us about society stats tell us about how society is handling cost of living is handling the cost of living crisis? us now to talk crisis? joining us now to talk about these is former dci about these stats is former dci at police, peter at the met police, peter kirkham. morning peter. kirkham. good morning peter. good so we've good morning. so look we've seen we've recent months we've seen in recent months something america where something akin to america where if you go into supermarkets or pharmacies, they've got even the most simple of products such as steaks alcohol are locked up steaks or alcohol are locked up in cases. security locked cases where you have to get a member of staff to come and unlock it for you. i went into, i think it was the co—op the other day and they had rump steaks they had steaks, rump steaks with on. what's with security tags on. what's this of? are we, you this a sign of? are we, you know, reminiscent of america's downfall front , to downfall on that front, to a certain extent, i guess we are , certain extent, i guess we are, but it's mainly a sign of the fact that retail theft is through the roof and that retailers are doing all that they can to try and prevent

those thefts taking place. all these security measures, are one thing for the big players, your tesco's and your sainsbury's and such like. but when it comes to small independent corner shops, they're not going to be in a position to invest in all this security technology . and so security technology. and so they're going to be at risk as well. i mean , you mentioned the well. i mean, you mentioned the stats showing this rise in shoplifting , i very much suspect shoplifting, i very much suspect that the rise is steeper and the total number is much, much more. than the recorded crimes because a huge number of shoplifting offences, well, they're not even noticed. some of them, but even a lot of those that are noticed by the shop staff, aren't reported to police for one reason or another. >> i just want to bring in director of punk against poverty, stephanie cairns. thank you. stephanie forjoining us on you. stephanie for joining us on the show today. don't you think hard times call for desperate

measures, and that's why we're seeing the rise of cases when it comes to shoplifting. >> yeah , absolutely. i mean, i'm >> yeah, absolutely. i mean, i'm seeing lots of talk in the news about the rise of criminal gangs , but nowhere near enough talk about the aspect that about the human aspect that people to and people cannot afford to eat. and that causing a big, that is what's causing a big, big rise. and there's lots of talk about, you know, how we need to be harsher with punishments. and i don't disagree when it is criminal gangs, also to be gangs, but we also need to be looking how can we support looking at how can we support people better they're people better so that they're not to resort to not having to resort to shoplifting? i mean, i'm seeing it my own shops . mum's it in my own local shops. mum's stealing things front my stealing things in front of my eyes, know, they've got eyes, you know, when they've got kids tow. there's a real kids in tow. there's a real sense desperation out there sense of desperation out there and we need to be supporting people. >> peter, isn't the problem that. i say it all the time because it's a great example . because it's a great example. rudy giuliani in new york, the new york mayor in the mid 2000, he had a broken window theory, which was you stamp out the low level the vandalism, and level crime, the vandalism, and that escalating more that stops it escalating to more serious crimes, we not? a serious crimes, do we not? a zero tolerance approach, regardless people regardless of how much people are struggling , the broken

are struggling, the broken windows , is, much wider windows theory, is, much wider than just new york. >> and at that period in time , >> and at that period in time, it's well researched and well documented in academic literature, and we know it works . we know that if you allow a neighbourhood to start going downhill and you don't pay attention to the begging offences and the drunkenness offences and the drunkenness offences and the littering offences, then very rapidly, there's a downward spiral, where more serious crimes start coming along because nobody cares for this place, so, you know, so why should we, it's. >> but, peter, can i just interject? >> it's not necessary to deal with it. it's not necessary . with it. it's not necessary. free to prosecute everybody as long as it is dealt with. and that might mean a caution. it might mean words of advice. in some cases, as long as something is done . is done. >> but, peter, for that to happen, you also need coppers to

attend the scene the attend the scene of the incident. there was story incident. there was a story doing yesterday that doing the rounds yesterday that in incidents think one in some incidents i think one police suffolk, they were police force, suffolk, they were taking to respond to taking 18 hours to respond to low vandalism calls from low level vandalism calls from yobsin low level vandalism calls from yobs in the street. so if there's no if coppers aren't turning up to incidents that we can't to that point . can't even get to that point. >> no, indeed. and the investigation offences after investigation of offences after the fact once they've happened, it's the fact once they've happened, wsfime the fact once they've happened, it's time consuming and difficult in many circumstances . difficult in many circumstances. and so these things all come together to make it a very difficult problem to solve. when you look at it and think, what's the simplest thing in the world? we can also trace it, trace it back to theresa may, another of her magnificent successes whilst home secretary. reducing low value thefts to a whole new category of offence that can be deau category of offence that can be dealt with by a streamlined process in the court system . and process in the court system. and that's just to the whole thing being deprioritized and stephanie, how do you think we can reverse this trend,

especially amongst young people who, you know, they're just feeling quite depressed about the future, depressed about what's going on in society. >> they're all together and crime them like what is crime to them seems like what is paying crime to them seems like what is paying at the moment. so how do we reverse this trend ? we reverse this trend? >> i mean, i personally think we need a kind of two pronged approach harsher punishments for those are criminal gangs those who are criminal gangs going out, shoplifting, and certainly shops need to be able to call the police and have the police turn up regardless of the value of the item, if that's the case. but for those who are shoplifting because they're struggling, i mean, ultimately we need to make the cost of living more affordable. but you know, there needs to be support. we to looking at, you we need to be looking at, you know, there mental health know, is there mental health issues that issues involved? is that what's spurred this on? poverty? spurred this on? is it poverty? are they struggling to eat. and spurred this on? is it poverty? are they to �*uggling to eat. and spurred this on? is it poverty? are they to bejling to eat. and spurred this on? is it poverty? are they to be looking eat. and spurred this on? is it poverty? are they to be looking at:. and spurred this on? is it poverty? are they to be looking at howj spurred this on? is it poverty? are they to be looking at how we we need to be looking at how we can support people with those sort i mean, there's sort of issues. i mean, there's sort of issues. i mean, there's so many that come so many things that can come into it's a first time into play when it's a first time offender. not somebody offender. it's not somebody who's doing it business. who's doing it as a business. you know, it's some criminal you know, it's not some criminal enterprise, you know, it's not some criminal en be jrise, you know, it's not some criminal en be looking at the causes

to be looking at the root causes there and we can support there and how we can support people rather than just people better, rather than just talking about punishments. >> just to you, if you >> just last word to you, if you don't mind. what some the don't mind. what are some of the most common items people are stealing? single stealing? you mentioned single mums, example. what are they mums, for example. what are they stealing ? stealing? >> i mean, i was in the co—op a couple of weeks ago and there was a mum at the self—scan machines, which obviously have increased , she had increased shoplifting, she had three children with her three young children with her and carrier , and it and a baby in a carrier, and it was basic shop, you know, was a basic shop, you know, a small kind of one carrier bag, bafic small kind of one carrier bag, basic she scanned basic shop. she scanned everything and then she everything in and then she walked without paying. walked out without paying. you know, what know, there weren't from what i could see, any expensive items in you know, i don't know in there, you know, i don't know what are for, what the what the stats are for, what the big supermarkets but big supermarkets are losing, but i increased the low i know it's increased on the low value items and we've seen it in our shop. got small our own shop. we've got a small shop losing two shop and we're losing about two items day, and it items on average a day, and it used to be the designer items we were losing. now it's a bit were losing. and now it's a bit of everything. you know, it's bafic of everything. you know, it's basic things , you basic props and things, you know. there's been a real know. so there's been a real change we're losing. change in what we're losing. >> sign the times. well thank >> sign of the times. well thank you peter kirkham, former >> sign of the times. well thank you at peter kirkham, former >> sign of the times. well thank you at the deter kirkham, former >> sign of the times. well thank you at the met kirkham, former >> sign of the times. well thank you at the met police|m, former >> sign of the times. well thank you at the met police and ormer

this is saturday morning live on gb news britain

channel. >> welcome back. ben and steph, with you on saturday morning live. your emails are flying in, especially about the thefts. apparently one shoplifting, theft a minute. roger. good morning to you. you say i was born into a poor family, but nobody stole in poverty, we can still pay thousands on tattoos. sorry. people are in poverty, but can still pay thousands on tattoos and delivered meals to your door . tattoos and delivered meals to your door. interesting. >> and we also had one in from jacqueline who says there's no excuse for single mums stealing, can't afford to feed your kids. don't have them. >> yeah, but it doesn't always work out like that. no circumstances change quite hard, donald if coppers were free donald says if coppers were free to be around rather than standing at the side of the road watching maybe watching marches, maybe they could more crime . could deal with more crime. >> and also we have sarah, >> and then also we have sarah, who i'm security guard

who says, i'm a security guard for a well known supermarket. these we catch these days, when we catch shoplifters , it's weekly shoplifters, it's weekly shopping and not much stealing to sell on. the cost of living is real. it definitely is. and stuff. i think, you know, different people are experiencing different things and how they're handling the cost. >> very insightful comment, especially from security . especially from a security. we'll those emails coming we'll keep those emails coming in but now in gbnews.com/yoursay. but now are you a swiftie? >> i am a big swiftie like i spent most of yesterday listening double listening to her new double album, and i just loved taylor swift. she's she is amazing. >> i don't get it. so you can pick up, oh, don't worry, this is all on you. >> this i will. >> this i will. >> it seems there is some bad blood amongst concert goers, as more than £1 million could already have been lost the uk already have been lost in the uk to fraudsters pretending to offer taylor swift concert tickets . tickets. >> yeah, so it's going to be a cruel summer. i guess that's another one of those. >> get it in age 25 to 34 who are trying to get their hands on sold out tickets as they're most likely in some likely to be targeted in some cases, fans have lost more than £1,000. >> definitely not something many

fans predicted in fans would have predicted in their wildest dreams. >> so this scam ongoing or >> so is this scam ongoing or are we out of the woods ? we're are we out of the woods? we're joined now by finance expert kevin mountford. kevin is this a problem that the twisty, the twisty, the swifties can shake off? >> well, i don't think the problem is limited to just taylor swift tickets. i mean, particularly with concerts we've heard over the last 12 months, all profile artists , whether all the profile artists, whether it coldplay, beyonce, harry it be coldplay, beyonce, harry styles, customers are styles, etc. customers are always going to be targeted by frost, fraudsters , particularly frost, fraudsters, particularly where there's high demand, but this carries on outside of just the entertainment industry . that the entertainment industry. that reason we carried out some research that shows that in quarter one this year, brits have lost out on possibly over £1 billion. and this stands across financial services and other products and services as well. but you know, we live in an age where we're very much focused on kind of mobile and digital devices to live our

lives . and with the rise of lives. and with the rise of technology, things like artificial intelligence , us, artificial intelligence, us, etc, fraudsters are getting more sophisticated . so we need to sophisticated. so we need to really keep our wits about us. >> and kevin as they are getting more sophisticated. how do we remain scam proof? because they're just finding new ways to scam the public. so how do we stay one step ahead of the game ? stay one step ahead of the game? >> well, i think the taylor swift issue was highlighted by lloyds banking group. so that includes the likes of halifax , includes the likes of halifax, bank of scotland. and they saw that were being contacted that they were being contacted by hundreds of customers. so that alerted them to the problem. and then they've communicated it accordingly . the communicated it accordingly. the research we carried out at raisin shows that at less than a third don't report , or rather, third don't report, or rather, don't report when they've been involved in a scam either because they're not aware of it for quite a while . or there's for quite a while. or there's the emotional aspect. we feel embarrassed or we feel angry, but it is important that we do feed this back to the vendors or

the platforms, because then they can take action. i think with tickets and i was after some tickets and i was after some tickets earlier this year, i hasten to add, it wasn't. taylor swift, but there was. what was it? >> kevin ? >> kevin? >> kevin? >> well, okay, it was ac, dc yeah, good man. >> see, that's more my team. >> see, that's more my team. >> ben i miss pearl jam as well. >> ben i miss pearl jam as well. >> so you can see my genre of music here. but just with this ac, dc situation i was trying to get them in civil of all places . get them in civil of all places. there's 100,000 people get them in civil of all places. there's100,000 people in get them in civil of all places. there's 100,000 people in the queue ahead of me. so you suddenly turn your attention to resale sites and then you look at the price versus value for money, and you're saying that somebody lost out at, say, £1,000. i'm guessing that's well above the face value. but then you start looking at reviews and the problem is you're desperate. need to get hold of something . need to get hold of something. you cut corners, and that's what the fraudsters are relying on. so we have to be vigilant. there is, an onus on vendors and platforms to ensure they protect

customers, and there are ways that you can get money back if you've been involved in fraudulent activity. but we have a responsibility, and we're also seeing from our research something like 10% of those who we asked have no security on their mobile and digital devices . so we're open to, this kind of activity , and we need to do activity, and we need to do everything we can to, to mitigate the risk. so this is not an isolated case. it is just something that we face in modern life. and we and the industry have to do everything we can to kind of mitigate the risk. >> and kevin isn't actually the case as well, aside from just fake tickets, tickets being flogged. you're getting flogged. also, you're getting touts for hoovering up tickets as soon as they go on sale at face value and selling them on for ten times the amount. i got some tickets for my partner the other week for her birthday. it was dua lipa or someone i don't know, i ended up paying something like 4 or 5 something like, like 4 or 5 times more than the face value from party ticket from a third party ticket website, because the original ones sold out .

ones were all sold out. >> yeah, and as i say, i think, i mean, this been a problem i mean, this has been a problem forever a day. and there are forever in a day. and there are certain of, legislation certain kind of, legislation that's put in place to and that's put in place to try and again minimise the impact of this and certainly from organisers point of view, they try to limit the resale value. some of these tickets as well that you're paying over the odds for. they might even be fake. so you need to familiarise yourself with what the original tickets look because the worst look like, because the worst thing to is pay over thing you want to do is pay over the odds and then get to the venue, and can't even access venue, and you can't even access the or the event. so it the concert or the event. so it is really important . but as is really important. but as i say, it comes down to supply and demand. so there's always somebody to take advantage. if people you know are desperate to get hold of the tickets, okay. >> finance expert kevin. thank you. i'll leave you to go and enjoy some thunderstruck or highway to hell, or maybe some taylor no taylor swift. thanks, kevin. no excellent. gosh. next what are we doing next? we're going to be

speaking to the marathon man, aren't we? the 63 year old who's attempting marathon attempting his 120th marathon this ever a marathon? >> no. i want to do a walking marathon. i think i'll be better at that. >> that's cheating. that doesn't count. >> it's not cheating. every >> no, it's not cheating. every step counts. well, guy step counts. well, this guy coming looking coming up next, i'm looking forward this. forward to this. >> believes it's all >> he believes that it's all down secret supplement. down to one secret supplement. can what it is we're can you guess what it is we're going out shortly. this going to find out shortly. this is live on gb is saturday morning live on gb news, news channel

welcome back. 1047 with ben and steph on saturday morning. live on gb news. got where we were then. >> oh, can you forget about me? no, never. >> now, listen, as we're in marathon season, i'm sure lots of you have been harassed by runners giving you their running tricks. and tips the past tricks. and tips over the past couple of months. >> for the day has >> well, for many, the day has finally they take to finally come as they take to the streets the tomorrow streets of the capital tomorrow to complete gruelling. to complete the gruelling. i think very gruelling 26.2 think it's very gruelling 26.2

mile race and the annual london marathon. >> so our next guest is a bit of a warrior. he ran in the very first london marathon in 1981, and is one of a select group, mostly in their 80s, still taking part in the race now in his early 60s, he's puts his performances to down a secret ingredient. >> can you guess what it is? it's blackcurrant extract. >> blackcurrant extract. okay, let's get some more on this now. by let's get some more on this now. by the man himself. delighted to be joined by, blackcurrant advocate and marathon runner mark clianthus. mark tell us about the blackcurrant. first of all, why is it such a good, kick up the backside for you? >> well, what we're all told about having, five green vegetables and colourful vegetables and colourful vegetables and colourful vegetables a day, but actually it's the, the purple berries, black currants, blueberries that we really need. they're high in polyphenols. they actually help, us with our stress. they help us with, recovery. they certainly help us during a race. so they're like little mini sponges

where they actually absorb and help us, run that much quicker. and when i've used them in a race, i don't slow down as much at the end of the race, and differences can be between 5 and 10. so for the average marathon runner, that could be eight, 12, 14 minutes. >> mark, when did your love affair begin with blackcurrant extract? where did it all begin? with you, well, i actually, was studying how you can actually , studying how you can actually, have something that's natural, performance enhancing during, dunng performance enhancing during, during a, endurance training and, and, and i started taking, blueberries , blackcurrants. but blueberries, blackcurrants. but you had to have so many in a, in a fruit bowl in the morning, it would almost it almost put you off. and then i discovered that you could use, blackcurrants, the, blackcurrant extract from new zealand, which is actually one of the finest, blackcurrants you can get around the world purely because of the, the ozone, is, is quite thin there.

and so the blackcurrants produce a much better skin to protect the blackcurrant. and actually that helps the human body really got it. >> okay. so blackcurrants are the secret. tell us about your marathons. you've done 100. so you're going to be doing your 120th your first. by the way 120th and your first. by the way what's quickest time. what's your quickest time. >> first of all my fastest time is two hours 24 minutes. and 40s. >> incredible. >> incredible. >> so your first was in 1981. when did you clock that time ? when did you clock that time? the two hours. when was your best, that was four years later, actually, i've got here the official competitors. and if you can see, 1981. wow. >> are you still got it. amazing competitor, the london marathon, 1981. we've got some clips actually of you from from the first race. i don't know if we can get up on screen. >> so yeah , i don't know when >> so yeah, i don't know when the last time you. >> that's not that's not mark. >> that's not that's not mark. >> that's not the limping to the finish line. but it's you crossing over just there in the black vest top .

black vest top. >> yeah. and can i just clarify i was running up behind. he collapses and he falls on top of me. >> so it was he was was that guy just completely knackered? mark. he needed some blackcurrant extract. i take it. >> yeah i wish i had blackcurrant extra. i would have looked that really, looked quite like that really, so what happened was , the last so what happened was, the last couple of miles i started to struggle a little bit because obviously i hadn't heard of blackcurrants then, and, i was running along and he was just in front of me and being the kind hearted soul , front of me and being the kind hearted soul, i kept sort of trying to catch him up to help him across finish line, him just across the finish line, and last possible and then at the last possible minute , he obviously had this minute, he obviously had this last second win, third and probably the 15th wind he had, and he just lunged towards the finish line. and then he sort of slowed down. so i, i ran in front of him. it didn't it looks like i'm taking no prisoners. but actually i had he stumbled , but actually i had he stumbled, i'd have helped him. we were so close to the finish line that i was prepared. >> you mates with him now? >> are you mates with him now? have spoken to him have you spoken to him since? >> him quite

>> since i did meet him quite a few ago, actually. few years ago, actually. >> he's given up running >> but he's given up running now. think was, him now. he. i think that was, him off life, to be honest. he just does part runs like me. but >> got it. >> got it. >> so, mark, the sense of achievement you got, the crowds weren't. the crowds weren't that great? really? in the first year because no one really knew because no one had really knew about you had a 1 in about it, you had a 1 in 2 chance of, entering. so 8000, ran . there's me crossing with ran. there's me crossing with a black singlet on, and, there was so there was about 18, 20,000 appued so there was about 18, 20,000 applied for 8000 places. so you had a 1 in 2 chance of, getting in the london marathon for, for tomorrow's race, 2024. there's an astonishing 560,000 people appued an astonishing 560,000 people applied , and that's probably applied, and that's probably only for around 20,000 of the 50,000 runners. and the other 30, the other 30,000 are for charity places and elite runners and the like. really. >> and mark, what's really

impressive is your fastest time is only 20 minutes over the world record champion. now that you're in your 60s. i just love that. you know what? no matter how old you are, you can take part in the marathon. what keeps you going to like, just keep on pushing that finish line. is pushing to that finish line. is it the crowds or what are you telling yourself head as telling yourself in your head as you're running every single mile , you're running every single mile i , you're running every single mile , i go back to when i was ten and my school teacher told me that. he said, mark, when i finished last in the school cross country race. mark, you'll neven cross country race. mark, you'll never, a marathon never, ever run a marathon again. and i just dismissed it. well, i've just ran around this school field three times. it feels like a marathon to me . in feels like a marathon to me. in reality, it was only probably half a mile, and then completely forgot about the moment. ten years i heard about the years later, i heard about the first london marathon, entered the london. i got in, and the first, london. i got in, and i was about 20 miles. when you normally hit the wall, i was really struggling, and i was thinking i can't finish this. i

>> all right. it's been another busy week as far as the royal family is concerned. with harry and meghan again, of course. who else making the headlines across

the pond. >> it was revealed this week that harry has officially that prince harry has officially changed residence changed his primary residence to the us . i'm changed his primary residence to the us. i'm not changed his primary residence to the us . i'm not surprised the the us. i'm not surprised the sussexes have lived in california since they stepped back as working royals in 2020, and it all comes, of course, as meghan, the duchess of sussex, launched the first product in her new influencer, her new influencer range american riviera orchard, sending out pr packages with strawberry jam inside back here at home, though, the prince of wales has had his first engagement on thursday since since the princess of wales announced her cancer diagnosis. >> okay . well joining us now to >> okay. well joining us now to get the latest on all this royal shenanigans is showbiz commentator sarah louise robinson. thank you forjoining robinson. thank you for joining us. good morning to you. so lots going on williams out and about doing the royal duties. you know getting whilst the getting on with it whilst the princess wales is ill. harry princess of wales is ill. harry meanwhile mean meanwhile and meghan i mean what's jam let's what's this jam about. let's start with the jam. >> well they've got >> the jam. well they've got themselves a themselves into a bit of a sticky actually ended sticky mess. it's actually ended up a bonus for king

up being a bonus for king charles. he's never had to do anything. meghan's launched anything. so meghan's launched her lifestyle range, her new lifestyle range, starting with jams and american riviera orchard. apparently it's been made by organic, from organic fruits grown in meghan and harry's montecito gardens. if we can believe it, i reserve an air of scepticism on on that, and i'm sure there's probably something else going on behind the scenes. but she sent out 50 jars of this jam to influencers and celebrity friends in the hope of trying to boost some sales to her product, but it's ended up winning for king charles because fans have gone to highgrove website and king charles's jam to highgrove website and king charles'sjam has to highgrove website and king charles's jam has sold out across the board. yes. >> so meghan's not feeling so jammy then ? jammy then? >> she's not feeling so jammy. all she's done is serve. serve a gold to king charles, her father in law, and he obviously loving this. so why did they go has gone through the roof. >> why did they the >> why did they go to the highgrove website? >> i it's a bit of a

>> well i think it's a bit of a blow against meghan because they're saying, want they're saying, we don't want your going go and yourjam, we're going to go and get king. so it just shows get the king. so it just shows how king is. how popular the king is. >> feeling >> sarah, are you feeling optimistic about meghan's lifestyle brand? because, you know, many things. know, they've tried many things. they've documentary, they've done the documentary, she's podcast, she's done, the podcast, everything does gets everything meghan does gets slated. you feeling slated. so how are you feeling about this brand? because it seems like she wants world domination this this, this domination here. this this, this is what she's always wanted. >> dream been to be >> her. her dream has been to be like gwyneth paltrow style like this gwyneth paltrow style lifestyle guru. she's always loved gwyneth. website goop . loved gwyneth. website goop. when she set up the tig, which was her website, when she was still in suits as a working actress, that was the brand , the actress, that was the brand, the style of brand that she was going for was this gwyneth style new york elite, very princessy , new york elite, very princessy, that that was the thing that she wanted to do. so this is her chance now by trying to cash in on her royal title , because she on her royal title, because she is now a duchess, so she's using that to try and elevate her brand. and she's really now trying to carve out herself as this new martha stewart. >> and she's coming out with a cooking show well, netflix

cooking show as well, netflix cooking show as well, netflix cooking she's i mean, to be fair >> and she's i mean, to be fair to meghan, has always tried to meghan, she has always tried to meghan, she has always tried to that she's she's to say that she's she's into healthy eating, food, healthy eating, organic food, cooking. apparently, prince harry when harry famously proposed when they were just roasting a chicken and she she puts it back then, but i don't see this being a success. it just will not happen for her because she's just burnt too many bridges with what's gone on with the royal family. and i think now people just don't believe in in her brand. don't think she's brand. they don't think she's authentic. so, you know, they're like well, what are you, like saying, well, what are you, meghan? are you an actress? are you guru? yeah. you you a guru? yeah. are you a duchess are you a philanthropist, meghan? who actually yeah this is actually are you? yeah this is what we're asking. yeah. don't what we're asking. yeah. i don't think don't think anyone knows. i don't think anyone knows. i don't think meghan knows think meghan really knows who she know, she is. but, you know, she's trying carve some of trying to carve out some sort of , like, princess style , like, princess diana style identity everything she identity and everything she touches. it just doesn't work. and we saw what happened with netflix as well. yeah, they've obviously given her this show, netflix as well. yeah, they've obvithisy given her this show, netflix as well. yeah, they've obvithis reallyn her this show, netflix as well. yeah, they've obvithis really isrer this show, netflix as well. yeah, they've obvithis really is her his show, netflix as well. yeah, they've obvithis really is her last;how, but this really is her last chance. yeah. make her mark chance. yeah. to make her mark and carve out a new niche for herself. but i can't see it

taking off. >> what's going on with a harry styles? >> oh, no. meanwhile, prince harry i was going to say prince harry i was going to say prince harry saying now there's no going back for him. prince harry i was yes, i was going to say harry styles. >> i'm not. i was talking about harry if you harry styles today and if you want , i wasn't harry styles today and if you want, i wasn't holding my harry styles today and if you want , i wasn't holding my breath want, i wasn't holding my breath that was going to that prince harry was going to return to the on a full time basis. >> but this week it's been official that he is living the american so what's american dream. so what's happened here? >> well, this is prince harry, the prodigal son. is he going to return? not? return? is he not? unfortunately. well, actually, i don't unfortunately don't think it is. unfortunately he's decided that his main residence the united states. residence is the united states. now, this was decision was made last year on the 29th of june, which was the day that they officially left frogmore as their royal residence. and he decided that the us was his main residence. now, he's not gone for us. citizenship. there's been discussions about that. he was asked about this on a us chat show recently. he fudged the answer, because what i'd like to say is if prince harry

did become a us citizen, he would no longer be prince harry. he'd lose his titles. he would have to renounce all of that. he is not to do that. meghan is not going to do that. meghan is not going to do that. meghan is going allow him to do is not going to allow him to do that. know what side their that. they know what side their bread buttered and why would bread is buttered and why would he off being in the line of he cut off being in the line of succession to be a us citizen? >> i think it's the right thing for them to do to give up their titles. >> i think actually king charles should strip them of their titles this really titles because this really is him insulting his and him insulting his father and insulting royal family and insulting the royal family and insulting the royal family and insulting us, the british taxpayer who've paid for god knows money for their knows how much money for their wedding. millions wedding. millions and millions of that huge of pounds through that huge wedding all the rest of wedding for them all the rest of it. and harry's just really sticking up to us and sticking a finger up to us and saying, ha, know, i'm saying, ha ha, you know, i'm a us resident now . he's just this us resident now. he's just this pampered, elitist prince. he's out the americans out of touch. the americans aren't happy about it. they don't him because he don't want him because he insulted first amendment insulted their first amendment and bonkers. insulted their first amendment ancyeah bonkers. insulted their first amendment ancyeah . bonkers. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> is working behind the scenes. is there any correct to try and get that overturned? >> there any significance >> and is there any significance in he chose in the date he chose to

officially list his residence in the us, because that was the date father booted him date that his father booted him out frogmore cottage, out of frogmore cottage, saying he lost his residence here. >> he lost his residence here. so it was it was a real temper tantrum. it throwing his tantrum. it was throwing his toys of the pram and going, toys out of the pram and going, i'll so he said i'll show you then. so he said again, this is what the sussex sussexes do . they, they sort of sussexes do. they, they sort of try and threaten the king, you know, manipulate him emotionally . it's emotional blackmail, emotional manipulation. it really is to say, you know, because charles doesn't want to lose harry at the end of the day, regardless of what's gone on, it's still they're still family. still family. family. they're still family. and know, he and harry and so, you know, he and harry knows this. like knows this. and it's like praying, the praying, tugging on the heartstrings of his father, of his father's good. well, now, when william comes on the throne, those strings and ties will be a whole new season of the crown . so hard he will have the crown. so hard he will have none of this. he will just axe them, yeah. so at the moment, harry still got away in with with his family through the
