9:04 pm
them to the united kingdom, but the government says that will only be possible if we can send small boat migrants back to the eu. >> it was always going to be the case. we believed as a government that our rwanda policy would act as a deterrent for people coming to this country illegally. i think we are slightly surprised that it's manifested itself so quickly after the act, became law, and we are now in the process of making sure that we are, gathering those individuals who could qualify for the first flight to be on that first flight. >> and finally, two men have appeared in court charged with murder after a torso was found in a nature reserve in salford. the 68 and 42 year olds spoke only to confirm their names and dates of birth. with the help of poush dates of birth. with the help of polish translators. greater manchester police believes that human remains at three other locations belong to the same victim , a man in his 60s. the victim, a man in his 60s. the initial discovery was made by a

9:06 pm
first aider, there are no specific resources to help guide you in assisting people impacted by racism or the current police brutality and black lives matter movement. this is a glaring omission and it's problematic in itself. and when creating a presentation or creating a test article , please do not use article, please do not use articles with images and videos of violence against black people because it's retraumatizing . because it's retraumatizing. >> it's really important we all educate ourselves at times like this. it's our responsibility to do so, especially if we're white, reading anti—racist texts and informing ourselves on police violence in the us are good places to start. in to order better understand the impact and structural challenges of racism. >> yeah, and they went on. >> yeah, and they went on. >> there are lots of good reading lists on the internet at the moment here. and here are some good examples i'd like to offer to organise and facilitate a book club for these texts, specifically . specifically. >> i mean, they wanted staff to be re—educated . other comments be re—educated. other comments from bbc employees, all written
9:07 pm
since october 2023, described the conservatives as evil, rishi sunak as a fascist. they also engagedin sunak as a fascist. they also engaged in conspiracy theory chat about him calling off a general election for fake national security reasons. one staff member said the lib dems got into bed with the devil when nick clegg partnered with david cameron, another staff member reveals that they are a labour party member and that they felt the bbc was racially attacking them for running a story about a black football player being pro—palestine as a black person, i'm feeling bullied by the bbc. >> my employer, for being black. to clarify , i'm not saying that to clarify, i'm not saying that the bbc is bullying me for being black. i'm just feeling that they are. i am a member of the labour party and there is a division of views on gaza. this is a new story, but a black guy posting his sympathy for other black people is not a story .
9:08 pm
black people is not a story. >> one jewish employee appears to reveal that behind the scenes at the bbc, there is a heck of a lot of rabid pro—palestine chat, which is hardly a shock considering the bbc were reluctant to call hamas terrorists. why i'm saying this is that the bbc staff have a variety of experiences, and i would ask that perhaps on a topic that involves so much horrific death and destruction . horrific death and destruction. >> please be sensitive to fellow staff who are suffering right now. we are also persecuting minorities who watched our friends die in the most horrific ways. i won't repeat here, but we are suffering greatly . we are suffering greatly. >> hyper woke, left leaning, critical race theory engaging anti—tory tosh there from bbc staff . having said that, i bet staff. having said that, i bet that didn't come as too much of a shock to you though, did it.7 we reached out to the bbc for comments and a bbc spokesperson said we are aware of the content of a small number of posts on an internal messaging app and we are reviewing these. thanks
9:09 pm
guys. well, joining me tonight to discuss all of this is news reporter, the man who on earth is steve edginton.7 steve, good to see you. right? i is steve edginton? steve, good to see you. right? i mean, this is , i would argue, quite rampant is, i would argue, quite rampant bias right at the heart of the bbc. i mean, they were completely captured by blm . completely captured by blm. >> not only does it show rampant bias internally, and the views of staff may not be surprising to our viewers, actually, some of these comments are extremely out there. they're spreading conspiracy theories. rishi sunak is going to cancel the election using a war scare with russia, but arguably they're also anti—semitic. the comments that you were referring to were defending the phrase from the river to the sea, which is widely seen as an anti—semitic chant to destroy israel, and another bbc staffer said it was simplistic, simplistic to call hamas the baddies. when you're comparing them to israel. and i think when you've got a conflict in which one side are explicitly
9:10 pm
genocidal and murdering over a thousand jewish civilians last year on october 7th, calling them the baddies isn't isn't simplistic. it'sjust them the baddies isn't isn't simplistic. it's just true . simplistic. it's just true. >> oh, absolutely. and they said they'll do it again as well . they'll do it again as well. look, stephen, in your view, what does this actually mean in terms of actually affecting the bbc's output? because these were members of the current affairs news team. is that right? >> it's a there's a wide variety of staff who are involved in these chats. not all of them were journalists. some of them were journalists. some of them were things like software engineers. and these people, some of which some of whom work behind the scenes on the bbc. but the interesting thing is, is that they're trying to apply editorial pressure on journalists , on editors, on journalists, on editors, on producers to change the bbc's output by describing the bbc's output by describing the bbc's output as racist . and we've seen output as racist. and we've seen in other messages that are describing bbc news articles as transphobic, they're clearly
9:11 pm
trying to apply pressure to their bosses, which is totally incorrect. and also, you've got to remember these messages are available to all bbc staff. all 5000 bbc staff can see this stuff , and the 5000 bbc staff can see this stuff, and the bbc 5000 bbc staff can see this stuff , and the bbc constantly stuff, and the bbc constantly calls for social media companies to moderate their content to moderate their content for disinformation and for spreading conspiracy theories. yet when the bbc staff do it themselves on their own internal platforms, they're allowed to do it without any moderation. and this suggests some people are saying that bbc editors actually condone this stuff . why aren't condone this stuff. why aren't the bbc getting involved? why have the bbc taken three days to send us a comment for this story? this is the first. we've done three stories on this. this is the first time and literally the last hour. they've sent us something about it. they clearly don't take it seriously whatsoever. >> look, stephen, thank you very , very much. that's stephen edgington there. make sure that you follow him. of course. and gb news for more articles like that, let's get the thoughts from our panel. now, i'm joined this evening by daily express
9:12 pm
columnist carole malone. i've got journalist and broadcaster benjamin butterworth and of course, political commentator suzanne evans. carole, i'll start with you on this concern stuff. i think, you know, captured by the blm movement , captured by the blm movement, for one, really. >> you know, i've worked in newsrooms now for, you know, 35, 36 years and yes , depending on 36 years and yes, depending on what government is in power, you would have you know, you're one or the other and you might not be working for a paper at the time that supports the government. however, you know, the rules about news are clear. you know you do not. you know you do not get emotional about it. you don't put your emotions into the story. you don't put your political biases into the story. you put truth into the story. you put truth into the story . you put fairness into the story. you put fairness into the story. you put fairness into the story. and if you can't, especially if you're the bbc, if you can't do that, the charter should be taken away. it's you know, the bbc would always insist their journalism is accurate. it can be accurate, but it doesn't mean it's fair. and it doesn't mean it's balanced. and what we're seeing here is that a load of people have political views, and
9:13 pm
they're putting those views into their reportage of the news, which is totally against all the rules. you know, i've said today has been a great day for britain, and we're going to go on to talk about some bumper topics. >> you know, humza yousaf has gone, the eu is copying our rwanda plan. we've told the irish to swivel over returning illegal immigrants. it's fantastic. but now benjamin has got even better because we can see beyond doubt that what everyone thought was going on the bbc is, oh, that's the end of the question. >> okay , look, carol is right. >> okay, look, carol is right. on the one hand, you know, when you're working in a newsroom, you're working in a newsroom, you have to see things objectively, even if you're working for an outlet that has a particular stance, because that's your responsibility as a journalist. but i really don't think this is a serious story at all. i mean, look, some of these people don't even work in news and current affairs, as the reporter just commented himself. and what you want in a newsroom is for people to bring different insights, different takes, and it doesn't mean that it's an institutional problem with the bbc. >> we see it, we see it on their reportage every single day. we see that in we've seen it with gaza, we've seen it with hamas, we've seen it with with brexit,
9:14 pm
we've seen it with with brexit, we've seen it in during covid, with boris, with black lives. bias is there. >> and can i, can i zone in on that because they said that they had to go beyond being an ally. and black lives matter have published a manifesto , which published a manifesto, which was, i would argue, overtly communist. okay. and the bbc were just captured by it completely. absolutely. >> they were. i mean, the classic one for me of that black lives matter protest was when the protesters had scared a horse to the point it bolted and knocked. >> a policewoman went into a traffic light. seriously injured, and the bbc commented, oh, she fell off her horse like heck she did. these protesters actually forced that animal and had caused serious injury. it's the hypocrisy of this that gets me. these are people who set themselves up as objective fact checkers. they look at other people's news stories and they complain about them, and they pull them apart and say they're not factual. yet here they are doing this absolutely extreme left wing bias. and what about other staff members who don't share those views? >> how would they feel you take
9:15 pm
on board a lot of what you said. by on board a lot of what you said. by the way, benjamin, you've got a valid point. very generous. somewhat, no, but some somewhere where i think maybe you would agree is there was a member of the jewish community who was posting there who felt that felt compelled to say, can you essentially, i'm paraphrasing, but can you consider the fact that jews died in the october the 7th attack? and that does imply that there's quite a lot of rabid pro—palestine chat behind the scenes. well, i mean, thatis behind the scenes. well, i mean, that is something that should be an air issue in a newsroom, right? >> somebody shouldn't feel uncomfortable based on that. i would actually as uncomfortable as it might sound, i would still say you have to take your personal experience out of judging the news. but look, i just think, you know, this is a handful of people in an organisation that employs it's an organised nation that employs left wing people. >> the fact is, benjamin , as >> the fact is, benjamin, as somebody has somebody. >> let me just finish. you look at the journalists at the top of the bbc. i think they do an exceptional job of being impartial. but if you would do if you're on the left and you are if you think they're questioning their impartiality. well, the director general tried to be a tory councillor and ran the tory party in hammersmith and fulham in the 90s. that doesn't sound very impartial. >> i'm sorry, benjamin , as >> i'm sorry, benjamin, as
9:16 pm
someone who's considered to be on the right, you know, i've done umpteen interviews on the bbc. it's always me against two people on the left. the brexit debate. it was always me against all people. yeah. okay, so maybe it's four people on, you know, you'd go on question time and it would be i'd be the one sort of right wing voice and a wet tory. >> maybe we have a state broadcaster now that is in no way representative of the state. we see that every day . we see we see that every day. we see that by the number of people who stopped buying the licence every yean stopped buying the licence every year, it's 1.5 to 1.7 million every single year. and growing because you're not talking to the majority of people in this country. >> all right. well, look, concerning stuff concerning and i suspect there's quite a lot more where that came from as well. i just wanted to bring you that at the start of the show, because i'm sure a regular gb news viewers and listeners will have had a day chock a block full of humza yousaf quitting, which we are going to be talking about and also as well the, eu rwanda plan and migration. just thought i'd mix it up a little bit, but coming up is the rwanda plan working because the policy officially became law last
9:17 pm
thursday and despite no planes taking off yet, it already seems to be having a positive effect. i'll be getting the thoughts of the leader of reform uk richard tice. what does he have to say about the government's immigration policy? we've got migrants now saying they wish they'd never come. we've got ireland saying migrants afraid of rwanda are flooding across the border. it does seem to be working . but up next, two working. but up next, two parenting experts go head to head because we're asking, are you now afraid of britain's feral kids? some astonishing video coming your way
9:21 pm
so much. coming your way on patrick christys tonight. we're having a little look at what on earth is going on at the irish border. we're also going to be talking about the latest instalment of a predominantly british pakistani rape gang. but now it's time for our head to head. are you scared of britain's youth ? there's been britain's youth? there's been some pretty shocking videos onune some pretty shocking videos online recently. the kids in our country are behaving outrageously. we've seen them killing a beloved family peacock with catapults and pretty distressing footage here, by the way. i mean absolutely astonishing. and a warning this is another quite alarming video for you. we've also seen shocking scenes of machete wielding youngsters in the birmingham area just brazenly wielding machetes around shops.
9:22 pm
look, let's be honest, i mean, there's hundreds of these videos doing the rounds at the moment. we've all seen katharine birbalsingh , dubbed britain's birbalsingh, dubbed britain's strictest headteacher, tried to clamp down on feral children . clamp down on feral children. but another headteacher is making the headlines this week for his attempt to control kids. andrew o'neill is the headteacher of all saints catholic college in ladbroke grove. he wants 12 hour school days for his students , running days for his students, running from breakfast club at 7 am. and finishing after the homework club at 7 pm. o'neill says that children need to be using their time in a constructive way . so time in a constructive way. so is it about time that we got tougher on feral and fearless kids? joining me now to debate this is parenting expert sj strum and annette kellow. great stuff . anna, i'll start with stuff. anna, i'll start with you. we've got to get tougher on kids. some of those people with catapults are even targeting funerals for goodness sake. >> yes, absolutely. i think we've got to remember rules run the world, which may be very hard for people to understand, but i feel like children are
9:23 pm
being let absolutely loose. we've seen the videos, we've seen the machete, we've seen the peacock video . and i also feel peacock video. and i also feel while you can say, oh, it's down to the parents, if the parents aren't doing anything, then what else can they do? it seems like teachers are now having to bring up children now , i personally up children now, i personally think a little bit of strictness with kindness does them good and it installs moral values which there are zero of at the moment. and also we all know the police do absolutely nothing about most things. most of the time. >> indeed. sj, i'll bring you into it now . for far too long in into it now. for far too long in this country, we've allowed kids to rule the roost and it's time to rule the roost and it's time to stop it. surely >> i think the pat cullen. we've had tough love and we've really tried to be very authoritarian with our children . and what with our children. and what we're seeing now with parents is we're seeing now with parents is we're trying to bring a new type of discipline to our kids, which is definitely exactly what you're saying, setting really firm boundaries, making sure that they know what discipline means and what it should be. but we also need to show some respect and get that respect back. and i think with the
9:24 pm
teacher explaining about these longer school hours, it's a lovely idea. a £10 a week after school childcare . but it's not school childcare. but it's not going to say how he's actually going to say how he's actually going to say how he's actually going to address that behaviour in those extra hours at school, where we see children behaving just the same in school, and those kids not getting the discipline that they want in school as well. so i think it does come down to parents, but we don't need to do such tough love sometimes during our children that we model respect and then we get that respect backis and then we get that respect back is another way of looking at it has become popular in the last five years with modern parents. okay. i mean , some parents. okay. i mean, some people might argue that modern parenting has ruined britain . parenting has ruined britain. >> well, i would say whilst there is , the head teacher is there is, the head teacher is trying to not only install values, but he's also really worried about the screen time, which i think is not just kids looking at their phones, it's kids doing things like cyber bullying, sixteen, all different variations. blackmailing. this is the things that that particular headteacher found. so he was taking the action that he
9:25 pm
feels appropriate. i don't think there's anything wrong with a 12 hour day. it doesn't have to be every day. but i think if they have, passions and hobbies and things that they can enjoy, there's nothing wrong with that. why should that be seen as being disrespectful? i don't think it is at all. >> yeah, i think we could just just just bring back up one of the catapult gang . right. i just the catapult gang. right. i just want to emphasise what this lot have been doing. you know, they've gone off and been firing slingshots at a peacock . they've slingshots at a peacock. they've been attacking local wildlife, they've been attacking local people . apparently, they even people. apparently, they even targeted, a funeral that was taking place. i mean, you imagine you're burying a loved one, and these people turn up and they start firing catapults at you. i mean, sj, lock those kids in school for 12 hours a day, minimum. now i think it's a term locking. >> of course, this is absolutely shocking and it really paints our teens , these particular our teens, these particular boys, who knows what they have been subjected to at home or at school, and absolutely a safe
9:26 pm
space for teens for longer in the day when they're just roaming the streets is a really great idea, and i really applaud this headteacher for trying to offer that, but it's not sustainable . you know, he's sustainable. you know, he's saying that he can do this for £10 a week for every single parent out there. that is not a solution that we can apply to every single teen in our country. so we need to look at our good teens. we need to stop always seeing teens as these rebels. you know, it's really painting our teens in a really bad way, which gives. then we all pile on top of our teens these are a certain small amount of children or teens who have been, maybe we don't know their circumstances, but locking children in school for 12 hour days isn't getting that i can see to any root cause for the behaviour. >> i just wonder if we spend too long worrying about people's circumstances . circumstances. >> we've got this machete clip. you know, these individuals who have , you know, rampaged into a have, you know, rampaged into a corner shop, for example. i mean , wheeling a machete around. i mean, they don't care. i mean, annette with the best will in the world. i'm not sure a youth
9:27 pm
club would have sorted these two out. >> no, i don't think a youth club will even touch the sides, to be honest. and there, of course, it's very integrated and it's personal. personal circumstances , but it's also to circumstances, but it's also to do with the parents and the environment. but i feel like at least people can try now. me personally , i would be very personally, i would be very worried. my child being around other children that were violent or bullying, and i was specifically being very clear of what school i wanted him to go to . in fact, i would even go to. in fact, i would even go outside the schools before i made the choice to look at what the people looked like, and so it's a personal choice. we're allowed to do that. we're allowed to do that. we're allowed to do that. we're allowed to want the best for our children. yeah we are allowed to want the best for our children. >> and it's a massive concern for a lot of parents out there as to who their children are going to be mixing with on a day to day basis. look, can i thank you both very, very much for imparting some much needed wisdom into this discussion. is sj strum there and annette kellow both of them parenting experts? great stuff. thank you . experts? great stuff. thank you. who do you agree with? all right, so we asked you on x, the
9:28 pm
artist formerly known as twitter as britain's youth goes feral. are you afraid if kids in this country. so 68.7% of you agree that britain's kids are scary? well, 31.3% of you say no, you're not afraid. well, you're hard . all right. look, coming hard. all right. look, coming up, another predominantly pakistani british rape gang is finally exposed. so the reporting restrictions on this have finally been lifted on the five trials surrounding 24 men who raped, abused and trafficked eight young girls between 1999 and 2022, in west yorkshire . how and 2022, in west yorkshire. how familiar does this sound, by the way, people? how familiar media mogul kelvin mackenzie will give his take, and that's shortly. but up next are the protests that we've seen in ireland against mass immigration, against mass immigration, against illegal immigration, a sign that the rwanda plan is now actually working . leader of actually working. leader of reform uk, richard tice. well, he's going to be giving us his verdict. there's a heck of a lot to go out and
9:32 pm
welcome back to patrick christys tonight on gb news. now, just before i go to my next guest , before i go to my next guest, our next topic. it has been brought to my attention during the advertising break there that something may have happened on the previous show involving some accidental fruity language. and i would like to take this opportunity to apologise for that. if anybody was indeed
9:33 pm
offended, i must admit i haven't actually seen or heard of it myself, but i would just still nonetheless like to apologise for it. now it's time to admit, is it that the rwanda plan is working the legislation to revive the uk's rwanda policy became law on thursday last week. but despite a single flight yet to take off, the scheme seems to be having a positive impact . it's positive impact. it's fashionable within westminster to criticise the rwanda plan . to criticise the rwanda plan. following suit, the likes of suella braverman, robert jenrick and much of reform. hey, you know what? myself at times as well. but ireland's government are no different. they are pledging emergency legislation to send asylum seekers that cross into their country from northern ireland back to us here in the uk. now, in a rather surprising, unappealing turn of events, the british government has effectively told ireland's government to do one, saying that the uk will not take back asylum seekers. illegal immigrants from ireland until france takes back channel migrants i'm joined now by the
9:34 pm
leader of reform, richard tice. richard thank you very much. look very critical of the rwanda plan, which i understand. however, we started seeing clips of illegal immigrants saying they wish they had never come here because of rwanda. oh dream on.the here because of rwanda. oh dream on. the irish. well, they've seen it. and the irish saying that they were they're seeing floods of people who don't want to be sent to rwanda. it's working. no, it's not absolute nonsense, patrick. >> over 7000 illegal migrants have crossed the channel. this yeah have crossed the channel. this year. sadly, 15 or so have lost their lives doing so in the knowledge that in theory, they're going to be arrested, detained and deported to rwanda. so no, it's not a deterrent. and this nonsense with the republic, there's no evidence actually, of there's no evidence actually, of the numbers that the republic are claiming. but there is a huge irony. i mean , chris huge irony. i mean, chris heaton—harris jumping around as the northern ireland secretary saying that the deterrent is already working. i mean, the man's having a laugh. he must think we're all stupid, for heaven's sake. but here's the point. you're right. the irony of an eu nation claiming that actually freedom of movement in,
9:35 pm
in the island of ireland, all of a sudden that's been there for 100 years, that's now not allowed . it's very simple. if allowed. it's very simple. if they want to send those back to they want to send those back to the uk , then we'll send 120,000 the uk, then we'll send 120,000 back to france. i wonder how macron's going to adopt that. the whole thing, these eu nations, they need to stop being so selfish. but they actually they are now looking. >> they are now looking, richard, at replicating a third party country like we're doing, which really does imply that they think that the rwanda plan is going to work. >> absolute nonsense . look, >> absolute nonsense. look, there's no way they're doing it. there's no way france is going to take 120,000 back from us. right? the only way this stops is you have to pick people up out of the boats and take them back to france, which were legally entitled to do. no government minister has proved me wrong on this. we know it works. belgium did it. it stopped the boats. >> suella braverman is saying that actually we don't have international waters so we can't do it. so it would always involve us. it would always involve us. it would always involve us. it would always involve us having to go into french. patently wrong. and
9:36 pm
that's different to what the australians did. >> no it's not. i've read the international treaties, as have my lawyers. we know we're right on this, but what the thing about being a leader is you actually, you take your advice and then you make a decision . and then you make a decision. the government lawyers are woke. lefty lawyers , of course, lefty lawyers, of course, they're going to give the advice saying it's against the law. no, it's not. it's actually how you read the law, how you interpret the law and have the courage of your convictions. this will not stop. this is not a deterrent. we all know that from the point. i've just said 7000 come here this year with respect . this year with respect. >> but it's bad for you if you're under—worked, isn't it? >> it's not going to work. we know it's not working. >> it is bad for you. if it works, it's already not working. right. but if it does work and planes take off and it's the end of april, it's awful for reform uk at the end of april and the numbers are up about 2,425% this yeah >> we know it's not working. it's a joke. one of two things will happen, right? if the flights take off, the boats will keep coming right or the left . keep coming right or the left. the laws will stop the flights
9:37 pm
taking off. either way , it's taking off. either way, it's a catastrophe for this ludicrous policy that the government has hung all of its illegal asylum immigration policy on and then they are absolutely floored. and they are absolutely floored. and the only solution is what we put forward. and our solution is the kind, compassionate one. it stops people dying . stops people dying. >> okay. and one thing that i think is good to come out of this now, right, is that the people of i feel very sorry for the actual people of ireland. okay. i feel very sorry for them because they've been led, i think, by donkeys, and they are now finding out what, you know, mass illegal immigration means rapid population growth , rapid rapid population growth, rapid demographic change. but if people are leaving the uk, flooding across the border into if, i'll tell you what it means, it means that ireland is even more generous than we are. well, they are, but they are because they are, but they are because they let them work. they aren't because they let them. >> i'm sorry for i'm sorry for the british citizens because
9:38 pm
it's us that are paying the bills. it's us that are suffering in our communities. it's our hotels that have been closed. it's our jobs that have been destroyed and smashed. >> why don't we ferry them? why don't we ferry them over to northern ireland and buy a few hotels up on the border with the republic, and shove them all in that? and wave them over? >> yeah. what we should do is actually return them to france and stop the boats coming over. northern ireland is part of the united kingdom. and look, but the job of the government is to defend our own borders. you know, ireland's got its own issues. let ireland deal with its own issues. the truth is, this whole charade, this whole fiasco that is killing people , fiasco that is killing people, only stops when leaders of the united kingdom and eu nations pick people up out of the boats and take them back to where the shores that they left, whether that's france or whether it's nonh that's france or whether it's north africa, that's what leadership is about. and the gutless leaders of all these nafions gutless leaders of all these nations who didn't do this, they are literally responsible for people dying. i'm sick of it. i've had enough. >> ursula von der leyen, who we played a clip of it earlier on in the show, has done a huge amount of discussing how diversity and multiculturalism
9:39 pm
is europe's greatest strength. her party is now genuinely considering a third party removal scheme . i mean, that is removal scheme. i mean, that is whether or not you think those schemes will work. that is embarrassing for the european union. oh it is. >> i mean, you make it sound like pickfords, you know, sort of, but but the truth is it is, it's a sign of how everybody has completely lost control of illegal migration across nations. freedom of movement is a disaster. it's one of the main reasons we left the european union. and they've got to show some leadership. otherwise, this carries on. >> but the thing today with chris heaton—harris is i thought, i genuinely thought was good right ? because because the good right? because because the irish came out with the begging bowl, the irish are reported just to the echr over our, prosecution or lack of prosecution or lack of prosecution of historic veterans, despite the fact that we gave the ira letters of comfort. >> they didn't come out with a begging bowl. they came out with an instruction, we're going to legislate, and you'll take them back. that's how these eu nafions back. that's how these eu nations said no. >> but that's good, though. we've said no to that.
9:40 pm
>> you wait, you wait. really? do you seriously think this government is going to stand up to the republic of ireland and then force them give over? given then force them give over? given the track record we've seen into the track record we've seen into the republic of ireland, surely we caved in over the whole brexit negotiate returns to the repubuc brexit negotiate returns to the republic of ireland and to the people in brussels. of course we'll cave in. they just haven't got it in them. no gumption , no guts. >> all right, richard, thank you very, very much. well, it's there's no need to apologise, it's your views. let's have a look. richard. thank you very much. richard ceisler, who is the leader of reform uk ? thank the leader of reform uk? thank you very, very much, look, i've got a heck of a lot coming up, including this dodi four fs . including this dodi four fs. ole, ole, ole i yes. how are you ole, ole, ole! yes. how are you heanng? ole, ole, ole! yes. how are you hearing? we're not going to allow ireland to return to legal migrants to the uk. but next, the big story. this huge . okay, the big story. this huge. okay, another predominantly pakistani rape gang is finally exposed. media mogul kelvin mackenzie will give us his take on that very, very shortly . it is i very, very shortly. it is i mean, look, these cases are always absolutely horrific,
9:41 pm
9:44 pm
welcome back to patrick christys. tonight only on gb news. really important story. this because reporting restrictions have finally been lifted on the five trials surrounding the 24 men who raped, abuse and trafficked eight young girls between 1999 and 2022. in west yorkshire . and 2022. in west yorkshire. over the weekend, the predators were jailed for a combined total of 346 years. yep, that's 346 years. and after the sentencing of the last seven men at leeds crown court, we now know who was sent down. the ages of the men
9:45 pm
ranged from between 38 and 53, and sentences spanning from 17, sorry, seven and a half years to 17 years behind bars, joining me now in the studio is the former editor of the sun, kelvin mackenzie and kelvin. this is yet another predominantly british pakistani grooming gang, isn't it? >> yes it is and i made a mistake. i tweeted that that they were an asian gang and of course everybody then piles in and says, look , they're not and says, look, they're not asian. you know, they don't come from japan , they don't come from from japan, they don't come from bangladesh, they don't come from india. actually, they came from, they were pakistani muslims . and they were pakistani muslims. and they were pakistani muslims. and the other reason, the real reason why they weren't they haven't been named in two years is because a number of them are related to each other. they are first cousins. and therefore, if you reported on on one, then the other family then got caught up in it. so it's been an incredible trial and it hasn't had the publicity which it should have had . yeah, because
9:46 pm
should have had. yeah, because because each trial has not been deau because each trial has not been dealt with separately. they've come all together. these guys, one of the guys got 30 years, a few of them got 20 years. they were the baddest of the bad. and it is shocking that . and they it is shocking that. and they all mainly those men all came from batley and the dewsbury area . now of course what area. now of course what happenedin area. now of course what happened in batley. of course we all know involving the teacher whose life has been destroyed by, by the fact that he can't work there following showing the cartoon. >> absolutely. yeah. >> absolutely. yeah. >> and so, so you have to wonder to yourself, is there something now whenever this is raised there is a big hoo ha. is there something about one particular area of nationality, in this case pakistani, who are attracted to this kind of action. now, you know, you could say , well, actually, white men say, well, actually, white men are attracted to fraud . you are attracted to fraud. you know, you can see that there there becomes an argument about
9:47 pm
this kind of thing. >> i mean, it's ridiculous. men such as asif ali, who alone was found guilty of 14 rape offences, committed appalling sexual abuse on a scale that can barely be believed, according to this report. here saw his young victims as defenceless commodities to be abused and traded on a women. i wonder if that's it. i wonder if kelvin there is racism taking place here and it's actually racism on the other side against against young vulnerable white girls and nobody, nobody cared. >> by the way , local council >> by the way, local council didn't care and actually not until the publicity. and i think there was a one particular journalist on the times who has been pursuing this story. so fantastic for him. and without without him, nobody would have cared . so the council didn't cared. so the council didn't care. and i must be honest with you, at some stages and by the way, the social department, they didn't care at some stage the police officers, because they were scared of being deemed to be racist. they didn't get caught up in it. and in a way, i
9:48 pm
understand that what i hope today is that with this trial finally, finally having publicity, that every police officer, every senior police officer, every senior police officer will say, i don't give a damn what colour you are. you know why? black, brown, whatever. we are pursuing the law. these girls had very little in their lives. they were treated like meat and society turned their back on them. >> and it's time and time again. this is the thing. yeah, i agree with you. i hope all of that is true. but it's time and time and time again and it doesn't seem to change. and this lot got away with this for the best part of what we're talking now, 15 years, 15 years. they got away with it for unabated. and i just wonder there is a pattern here. there is a pattern here. and it tends to be a predominant only british pakistani when it comes to the grooming . and what can we to the grooming. and what can we do about that, well , i would do about that, well, i would hope now i just of late there
9:49 pm
hasn't been a scandal. another scandal that has blown up. right? since these people are being , been right? since these people are being, been held under, right? since these people are being , been held under, held being, been held under, held under arrest, in prison, in prisons ahead of their convictions. but you know, who's to say what can go on? look, i you try not to be racist about this, these kinds of things, and then and then you hear these appalling cases. imagine if it had been the other way around. imagine if we'd had 24 or 23 white people, because one of the one of the accused, one of the convicted was white. 23 white people attacking a series of asian of pakistani girls. imagine imagine the row about that. but he's right to point it out. >> look, obviously it's right to point. people always point to it. you know. but because of demographics, you know, the vast majority of paedophiles in britain will be white and are white. we've had savile, we've had all of these people. absolutely. but there is there is a there's nothing there's never been anything like this. >> there's never been the scale of this kind of attack on, on,
9:50 pm
on a, a innocent girls and, i'm, i'm hopeful actually. i don't believe that this has had the pubuchy believe that this has had the publicity to which it's entitled . and there were some very good work done by a lady who works for the mail on sunday, who collated most of this information together . i didn't information together. i didn't see any of the other news sites doing it. and by the way, how much have you seen on how much have you seen on the on the mainstream network? yeah. >> and this is, this is part of the problem. you know, when the telford grooming gangs scandal happened, which at the time i believe still is the largest grooming gang scandal ever. the bbc put it initially , they put bbc put it initially, they put it on their local shropshire page of their bbc website. so if you wanted to find out about the country's largest grooming scandal for a period of time, you would have gone to the local shropshire page and look at about the third story down. and that's not due prominence. >> well, it doesn't that actually chime in with that earlier guest that you had on there talking about other bbc, how how employees within the bbc looked upon certain stories as
9:51 pm
not to be covered. >> yeah. i mean, no doubt the bbc would deny that there's any kind of agenda there. all i would ask is and for society, it goes to the police and the media. you know, how many more times do we have to see this? how many more vulnerable young, predominantly working class, very underprivileged white girls have to be treated like pieces of meat before the nation stands up and addresses this issue. look, i've got another story i'd like to squeeze in with you. just. just moving on a little bit. kelvin, is the government right to clamp down on people claiming benefits, using mental health problems to do so? so the government has essentially said now that we have too many people off on benefits, etc, and that too many people are using mental health as a way of claiming the benefits, well , if you get one benefits, well, if you get one of those pip benefit payments , of those pip benefit payments, you, you get an extra £83 a week and you never need to be you never you never need to be tested or when i say that's not
9:52 pm
quite true, but the tests are on an irregular basis and the money comes in the question really is why has there been such an explosion? >> and the reason that there's such an explosion is because if you say, i have mental health problems, by the way, say it at work as well. you watch the bosses all start running around wu mental health. oh, shocking, right? if you say i'm suffering from anxiety or depression, then honestly , who is to say that honestly, who is to say that you're not suffering from. i'm sorry. >> you know, i feel really sorry for people who might be watching this now who have a physical. it would love to work, but have some kind of physical disability and can't or whatever, or the people who have very genuine and there are very, very genuine cases of people really struggling with their mental health. you know, i know that all too well. i feel really sorry for them because i think there's a load of people on the take who are giving them a bad name. right. >> so, yes. so rishi, who's not a particularly popular guy, but he got it right, i think when he said today, he said that people are gaming the system and why why is it that the mental health
9:53 pm
seems to have exploded since since covid what is it, what is it about? about going to work that causes you a problem? surely you should go to work actually to stop you worrying about everything. and where does anxiety and the normal run of the mill problems of life like the mill problems of life like the bills are too high. i'm not making enough money. why does the missus hate me? you know all the missus hate me? you know all the normal aspects of normal. >> if you like lucky in that regard. >> well, you ask, you ask your viewers. there'll be more of them on my side. >> yeah, i'm sure there will be. look happy. thank you very much. >> great stuff as ever. that is kevin mckenzie. there former editor of the sun. look, coming up, we've got a bit of this . up, we've got a bit of this. >> suddenly, when you look across the commonwealth, there's no way that we can move forward unless we acknowledge the past . unless we acknowledge the past. >> well, harry and meghan are doing a fake royal tour of nigeria. what do you make of that? the editor at large at the mail on sunday, charlotte

9:55 pm
overnight across south wales, southwest england, the rain easing a little across parts of scotland, the heavy showers also easing in northern ireland, at least for a time, staying largely clear across east anglia and the southeast. temperature wise, a bit warmer than recent nights, most urban areas at least staying up at 7 to 10 c. on to tuesday . and as i said, on to tuesday. and as i said, it's a bit of an east west split. we'll start with a lot of cloud across northern england, but i'm hopeful it'll brighten up here. there will be further rain for wales and northern ireland. some heavy rain as well, the yellows and the reds in there and also fairly wet for parts of southwest england. pretty gusty in these western areas as well. a few showers in western scotland but a good part of scotland dry much of northern england, the midlands, east anglia and the southeast having a fine old day and it will feel a fine old day and it will feel a bit warmer as well. look at those temperatures 17, 18, maybe even 19 celsius, but still on the cool side where we've got the cool side where we've got the cloud and the breeze and the outbreaks of rain further west from that area of low pressure, that does pull away, allowing some warmer weather to move in over the next few days. but it

10:04 pm
government that our rwanda policy would act as a deterrent for people coming to this country illegally, i think we are slightly surprised that it's manifested itself so quickly after the act became law , and we after the act became law, and we are now in the process of making sure that we are, gathering those individuals who could qualify for the first flight to be on that first flight. >> well, for all our top stories , sign up to gb news alerts by scanning the qr code on your screen or go to gbnews.com/alerts. back now to . patrick. >> good evening. today is a great day for britain . britain great day for britain. britain preferred to the way humza yousaf has resigned. the eu is copying our rwanda plan, which is completely shafted. the labour party and we've told ireland that they can't send
10:05 pm
illegal immigrants back to us. winner, winner. illegal immigrants back to us. winner, winner . chicken dinner. winner, winner. chicken dinner. i feel very sorry for the people of ireland that they've been led by woke idiotic donkeys. their high court decided to declare britain as an unsafe country so they couldn't return illegal immigrants in case we sent them to rwanda. well margaret hotel started springing up everywhere their country is now an illegal immigrant dumping ground, and the native irish people are absolutely fuming, and rightly so . so now they want to change so. so now they want to change the law back . so britain is a the law back. so britain is a safe country and they can send them back to us. but we decided to tell them to swivel agreement on returns, i mean, we've been told all the way through since we left the european union that the uk must deal with the european union as a whole entity. and so any thing on returns has to be dealt or dealt with on that basis . with on that basis. >> oh, you hate to say it, are you good? you reap what you sow, leo varadkar's soft touch on
10:06 pm
illegal immigration has ruined his country. many people would argue . and now he's getting argue. and now he's getting shouted at in the street. yeah . shouted at in the street. yeah. it's quite a lot swearing now, actually, as it turned out, and ufc star conor mcgregor wants to start some kind of military fight back here. we have human worms in positions of power. it's closing in on the time to activate officially . okay. our activate officially. okay. our government should fill every single bed and breakfast and hotel on the irish border with illegal immigrants. and then just watch as they make their way into the republic of ireland. i feel very sorry for the irish people. i feel very sorry for them. they don't deserve this, but their politicians need to be taught a lesson and the european union has shafted itself on this as well. so now ursula von der leyen's own party has backed a rwanda style plan . this ursula rwanda style plan. this ursula von der leyen is a land of
10:07 pm
amazing cities , places with a amazing cities, places with a strong character that you can feel at every corner and in every square , but also places every square, but also places where everyone feels at home. >> i want europe to be like its cities, a union where it doesn't matter what you look like, who you love, how you pray, and where you were born . where you were born. >> all right, now then this happens. >> all right, now then this happens . armageddon for ireland happens. armageddon for ireland declined to take me . yeah. me's declined to take me. yeah. me's only a group of rabid islamists in hamburg wanting an islamic caliphate in europe. and all of a sudden she's sending people to third countries again. you reap what you sow. keir starmer must be bricking it because he said this , hasn't he? this, hasn't he? >> if the supreme court rules, it is legal and flights to
10:08 pm
rwanda begin to take off and the numbers crossing the channel on small boats decline, i.e. numbers crossing the channel on small boats decline, he so it's working, would you still reverse it? >> yes , i think it's the wrong policy. >> it's hugely expensive . >> it's hugely expensive. >> it's hugely expensive. >> it's hugely expensive. >> it's a tiny number, a tiny number. >> all right. well, it looks like it might be working okay. early days though. it looks like it might be working. and what if the entire european union starts doing it? that's the crucial point. what if the european union starts doing it? he's been completely shafted by this. look humza's gone. the eu looks ridiculous. woke irish politicians have come to us with their begging bowl out and keir starmer might have to u—turn on rwanda. it's only monday. what a start to the week. let's get the thoughts of our panel this evening. it is daily express columnist carole malone. i also have journalist and commentator benjamin butterworth and of course political commentator suzanne evans. carole rule, britannia , you're on a roll
10:09 pm
britannia, you're on a roll tonight, love. >> you're doing a great day. no, you're doing good. >> what? was there a question there or not? >> not really. no, no. yeah i mean look, firstly well i was telling the irish where to go when it comes to, turning as illegal. >> there must be rueing the day ireland that it and the eu insisted on a border because it's done for them. you know, the people are pouring through this, this border that they insisted upon. and the bottom line is ireland is an eu member state. so the policy is to remove people, to the safe country from whence they came. thatis country from whence they came. that is a eu policy, they declared. that is what they're going to have to follow. and it is. they do have a cheek. don't they?! is. they do have a cheek. don't they? i mean, it's funny really. i mean, it's hard not to laugh that, you know, that they as you said before that the high court ruled not a very long ago that the uk was not a safe country precisely because of its rwanda policy. but what gets me is, you know, labour and the lords for months now have been saying that this wouldn't work. it's clear it's not even it's not even implemented yet. the players
10:10 pm
haven't started taking off and already it's working because everyone's flocking to ireland. so i think it's got a chance. >> i think it's got a i think it's i think it's obvious. it's got a very good chance. >> well this is a good chance before the plane, before the planes have taken off. imagine how many people. and it was patrick. it was only ever supposed to be a deterrent. and it's working already as a deterrent. keir starmer might end up really, really shafted by this. >> if the european union do something that is basically the rwanda plan on a bigger scale , rwanda plan on a bigger scale, andifs rwanda plan on a bigger scale, and it's been a bit of a deterrent here. does he really reverse that? >> well, first of all, he said in that clip that you showed that if the numbers of small boats coming over fall, would he return? it would he change it? would he reverse it? pardon me? well, the number of small boats are not falling. the first four months of this year have had the highest numbers that we've ever recorded. just in the last week you've had between three and 500 a day coming over. and so the numbers have not been affected. now, when the irish minister told their parliament that 80% had come from the uk, she did not say that that was in the last few days. so there's no evidence that it's related to
10:11 pm
the passing of the rwanda bill at all. that is political opportunism . opportunism. >> the irish have mentioned that rwanda is having an impact. >> yeah, but i've looked it up and they didn't say that. that is something they were not referring to the last week. and can i just say that this has cost half £1 billion? right. thatis cost half £1 billion? right. that is an enormous amount of money for what will be at most. but what of what did he do that if the eu do it, if the eu do out of money, can i just say the enormous amount of money is the resettlement and rehousing bill that we pay every year for the people who come here, which is nearly £6 billion? >> so that's just as much as the rwanda plan. but it's interesting that the european people's, the european people's parliament, the biggest group in the european parliament, have actually saw the people's party. they vote, they said last week that they wanted a rwanda style plan. they wanted a third safe country. so he's got starmer is going to look really stupid. and it's not just starmer, it's that yvette cooper has stated categorically that the rwanda, lots of people want a rwanda style plan . style plan. >> i mean, you know, one phrase ikeep >> i mean, you know, one phrase i keep thinking about just listening to this story is karma is a we all know what absolutely
10:12 pm
. and this is exactly what's happening, you know, for months we've had in this country, we've had the government saying we're not going to listen to the european courts. and now here we are, ireland wants to overturn the decision of its high court. where is the outrage ? why is where is the outrage? why is nobody complaining? oh, well, because ireland are on the right side and it's only brexit britain that's horrible. >> and i feel very sorry for the people of ireland . i feel very, people of ireland. i feel very, very sorry for them. >> i do too, because they're seeing what we have been having to live. not that for quite some time they didn't want this, not their fault. time they didn't want this, not theirfault. but time they didn't want this, not their fault. but there time they didn't want this, not theirfault. but there is time they didn't want this, not their fault. but there is a certain delicious irony , i'm certain delicious irony, i'm afraid, in what has happened. and yeah, rule britannia , and yeah, rule britannia, patrick, you know and sunak for saying there's no way that we're going to take them back. >> good on if i want. >> carmen is looking very stupid on this. his comments were ridiculous and that could potentially lose him the election. if this policy works , election. if this policy works, if we see flights getting off the ground and other countries adopt it, inflation is going to be cut for it. absolutely. if the eu, which is down interest rates, you know, the government's going to be looking better. starmer, if he sticks to
10:13 pm
his mettle on that, he's going to be looking very two things are very are i would argue now really quite likely in the next few months that the european union will start turning more boats back in the mediterranean and that there will be some kind of third country agreement and that will make a lot of people feel very stupid. >> the other the other thing i would just like to ask you another reason why i think it's been a good day. benjamin humza yousafs gone a rejection for the kind of ideology that you stand for. >> well, i certainly don't stand for scottish independence . for scottish independence. that's not my particular view. that's not my particular view. that's true. but look, i think that was well down his list of priorities. let's be honest, i think humza yousaf clearly wasn't able to be an effective politician at communicating . but politician at communicating. but the fact that he stood up against hate and he stood up against hate and he stood up against bigotry, i think in the era of politics we're in where you've had nasty pieces of work like boris johnson and liz truss. i think he was a beacon of hope for those people stuck up against hate. >> he's caused a lot of hatred in scotland by getting people to spy in scotland by getting people to spy on each other in their own homes and report that to the police, that hate, that hate crime bill does exist.
10:14 pm
>> and i think you should report people who are bigots. i think that's absolutely how a civil seriously saying you are bigot. >> if they don't agree with an ideology, which is what the trans movement, it's an ideology. >> if you don't agree with it, it is an ideology. it's not. >> it's how some people exist. >> it's how some people exist. >> it's how some people exist. >> it is not very tidy and medical or scientific facts. >> is your heterosexuality an ideology? >> it's just these are facts of how humans are built . how humans are built. >> my heterosexuality, my sex is a biological fact . so when a biological fact. so when someone says a trans woman is a woman, someone says a trans woman is a woman, no someone says a trans woman is a woman, no , she is not. it's man. >> yeah. suzanne >> yeah. suzanne >> humza. humza. useless is gone. >> he's gone. yes. amazingly i knew he'd gone when he said that he wasn't going to go. because. because it was so obvious that he was in such a corner. he'd got nowhere to go. he was going to lose this vote of no confidence. and yeah, it's very funny. >> over the weekend he would just say he made in his speech today, he made it sound like he was resigning for the people of scotland. he was begging the other leaders over the weekend, labour and tory, to, to help him
10:15 pm
out because he needed one. >> alex salmond i am aware that because we're going to give you all of tomorrow's front pages in about 15 minutes time, i'm aware there's probably going to be a lot of that on there. but just just whilst alex salmond, whether this is true, we will never know. but we're saying that humza yousaf was on the phone to the alba party as late as 730 this morning, which implies that, you know, he was quite desperate, and i also thought it was remarkable how he managed to crowbar in multiculturalism and diversity in the first few lines of his resignation thing . i thought, resignation thing. i thought, look, just know when you beat him. but anyway, look, coming up, we will have tomorrow's papers. tonight will probably be a bit more humza in that if you're not sick of it. and next. harry and meghan though, decided to visit nigeria next month after the duchess of sussex learnt about her heritage. yep. so apparently she's 43% nigerian. apparently oh well yeah, exactly. so she's got to go and they're going to be engaging in cultural things. so there we go. the editor at large at the mail on sunday, charlotte griffiths, will join me to share
10:16 pm
10:19 pm
10:20 pm
non—official royal tour of nigeria . everyone's favourite nigeria. everyone's favourite couple have been invited by nigeria's chief of defence staff to take part in cultural activities , and their upcoming activities, and their upcoming trip is linked to their work with the invictus games as they were expected to meet military servicemen and women. meghan is particularly excited as she revealed several times actually, that she is 43% nigerian but in truth, sussex style . there are truth, sussex style. there are those who are not a fan of their decision, with some royal experts accusing the couple of trying to have their cake and eat it as they play the royal card. and a surprise update from another royal tonight as well. the duchess of edinburgh has become the first member of the royal family to visit ukraine since russia's invasion. so there we go. some stuff there about the duchess of edinburgh joining me now is editor at large at the mail on sunday, charlotte griffith. charlotte, thank you very, very much. right then what's going on here with this fake royal tour of nigeria? are they trying to get a one up on the royal family somehow? >> of course they are. they never do anything but try and get a one up on the royal family. >> but i think i think what they're really doing is they're
10:21 pm
on paper. >> they're trying to celebrate ten years of invictus games, and nigeria are set to host it in the future and are trying to woo them so that they can host it in them so that they can host it in the future. so that's the official reason. but let's face it, the real reason is because they need content for netflix. they want to appear as kwasi royals. they want to carry on conducting quasi tours as if they're still members of the royal family. you know, and i think, i think the fact they're going to a commonwealth country when they describe the commonwealth as empire 2.0 is a little bit rich . and it's just a little bit rich. and it's just a real shame because, you know, she had an opportunity to actually be really important in the commonwealth when she was a member of the royal family, and this was an honour bestowed upon her by the queen. but she turned her by the queen. but she turned her back on that, and now she's going to go to nigeria. and i just hope she doesn't drip poison in their ears about our royal family. >> well, harry has gone on record essentially saying we can't move forward here before we apologise or any of that stuff. so i would imagine it's harry on an international simping tour here to nigeria. >> yeah, it's all really
10:22 pm
incendiary stuff, you know, and it is a diplomatic situation. he's wading into completely unguarded unserm scripted. i mean, you know, educated, probably uneducated. i mean, that's actually a really good point. you know, he makes huge clangers all the time. i just think the royal family right now, we think really rolling their eyes, but also more seriously, genuinely a bit worried about this. you know , it worried about this. you know, it could be a disaster. >> i wondered about whether or not they're keen to have a contrast between when william and kate were quite poorly received in the caribbean . yeah, received in the caribbean. yeah, okay. and the optics of that. and now whether they're going to get, you know, a different reception in nigeria that might make them look great. >> yeah, i think i think meghan and harry will get stuck in on the ground, as it were. so, so kate and william were standing in an open top car in sort of, you know, william was wearing military uniform and of course, the shaking the hands. yeah. through the fence. so and that was choreographed and to be honest, the queen actually influenced a lot of that. so i feel a bit bad for william and
10:23 pm
kate because she wanted to sort of recreate that sort of 50s iconic moment anyway. so of course meghan and harry will have learned from that and will not do that. and if anything, we'll try and probably stir up that memory. i think that's a really good point. and make themselves look like they're sort of the people. and meghan is very keen to tell as many people as possible that she's 43% nigerian. so she'll be making that point a few times . making that point a few times. >> i would have thought, yeah, she will. and she indeed has done so. this is basically just a content gathering situation . a content gathering situation. harry is himself coming to the uk. she's not coming with him. so some people would argue she's not actually here for the stuff that really matters for the if it is all for the invictus games, why isn't she coming with him here to this country? >> yeah, well, i think she's not coming because she knows she'll get booed or get a bad reception, but it's so sad. i think she should support harry because he'll be so lonely there. we know that no senior members of the royal family are going to be there. of course. i mean, it's sort of a given, but
10:24 pm
also, i think it's going to be really stark. you know, that's where his parents got married. it's going to be a very sombre and senior. >> what is this for? just remind our viewers and listeners there's an event. is it at saint paul's. so saint paul's cathedral to commemorate, you know , to mark ten years of know, to mark ten years of invictus games. >> so it's really important. it's really important, you know, part of harry's sort of soul, really. and exactly the kind of thing he'd want his wife, maybe even his kids by his side for. but meghan is leaving him alone. and i just think i think he's going to cast a really lonely portrait of a, of a man without his friends around him, without his friends around him, without his family and without senior members of the royal family, and no wife there with him. >> apparently they've got they're saying that no senior members of the royal family have got plans to see him at all. i mean, he could be he could be here for as long as a week. it remains to be seen. but he could be here for around a week and apparently none of them want to see him. >> no. and he's staying in a hotel. he's not staying in a royal residence. i don't think he'll be here for a week. i think he'll be here a couple of days.i think he'll be here a couple of days. i mean, honestly, i actually just don't think meghan
10:25 pm
lets him out of his her sight that often for that long. i think a couple of days is all he'll manage. he may try and catch a friend while he's here, but he doesn't always do that anymore. you know, last time he was here in february, he turned it around within hours, and then he'll fly off to nigeria, where he'll fly off to nigeria, where he'll be joined by meghan. so she will be, you know, in montecito, prepping her outfits and getting all ready for this showstopping tour. but she didn't join him, as you say, for the bit that it really mattered. >> yeah, i just find that absolutely remarkable. look, obviously, i think this is a genuine point. i do think that the invictus games is actually like a great thing. yeah. it's amazing . and it really is amazing. and it really is something that that harry has done incredibly well, actually. and i just wonder if it's it just appears to me that, you know, she's tagging along with, with him for the for the nigeria bit. and that's great. but you know, is she really willing to support him when he comes back to the uk for the difficult bit? he supported her through the difficult bit. he behaved like a lapdog during oprah and all of that. >> yeah, and it will be difficult for her. if she was to come to the uk, it would be
10:26 pm
really difficult. it would bring up terrible memories of the past for her and awkward moments when she was in various, you know, churches and things. but, you know, she's a strong and tough woman . we know that about her woman. we know that about her and she's always telling us how brave she is . so if i if i were brave she is. so if i if i were her, i would i'd be brave and walk up those steps. it would look great for her netflix show anyway. >> so, you know, you could spin that a million different ways. absolutely, charlotte. thank you very much. great stuff. that's charlotte griffiths, the editor at large at the mail on sunday. look coming up. what do you want, barbie, at your wedding ? want, barbie, at your wedding? margot robbie is back in the news. i'll reveal all very, very shortly. but next, tomorrow's newspaper front pages have landed , and i'll be joined by my landed, and i'll be joined by my press pack
10:29 pm
10:30 pm
to profit amid race to succeed. yousef is a good angle that we'll talk about that has this definitely handed the keys to downing street, to keir starmer? let's go to the metro. you've only got yourself to blame. snp crisis leader quits in tears. well, there we are. the i pip disability benefit could be cut using new system with six tiers. this is about the government's desire to get loads of people off benefits. basically save the taxpayer a bob or two. so we'll be talking about that. let's go to the daily mail. the fall of humza useless means independence is dead for a generation. the only legacy of the snp is decline and decay. andrew neil has written that we've also got all schools warned on sextortion epidemic. foreign gangs are blackmailing hundreds of children over intimate pictures online. good grief . teachers online. good grief. teachers were given an unprecedented alert yesterday about pupils being targeted in sextortion scams. and meghan won't join harry in the uk. we've already
10:31 pm
covered that. let's go to the telegraph. usaf exit triggers battle for snp and they also go. sex is a biological fact. nhs declares a victory for commerce at today's been a great day. you know today's been a great day. the guardian yusuf quits as first minister after coalition gamble triggered snp crisis. i'm not really sure if it was a gamble or whether it was just complete and utter idiocy. so look, those are your front pages. look, just before i go to the panel, i do want to bring you some, quite disturbing stuff that's coming out of north carolina at the moment. i think we have a bit of video for it. several police officers have sadly been shot in north carolina. so apparently, an armoured vehicle was driving, through and, yeah, here we go. so this is the aftermath of the situation in, so yeah, apparently several officers have been shot, unfortunately, you know, people were were out and about an armoured vehicle was
10:32 pm
knocking over recycling bins. officers removed a person with blood on their shirt. it's all very, very chaotic at the moment. but look, there's essentially been a mass shooting , it appears, involving multiple different police officers in nonh different police officers in north carolina. and these are the latest footage from as it appears to have involved a vehicle , apparently the north vehicle, apparently the north carolina's regional fugitive task force, which is in charlotte , says in six years, charlotte, says in six years, the regional task force has apprehended more than 8900 fugitives, this, of course, is just the latest example of something that's gone on there. officers from several agencies were carrying out an operation in the residential area when a subject began firing at them. multiple officers were shot. so there we go. all right. that's there we go. all right. that's the latest from , north carolina. the latest from, north carolina. i'm going to return with my panel i'm going to return with my panel. now, let's keep it uk, that's obviously talk about humza yousaf , i think. really, humza yousaf, i think. really, i mean, this guy failed upwards
10:33 pm
more than anyone ever, carol, as far as i can tell. and yeah, it's just it's ridiculous. >> complete, complete incompetent. you know , he was incompetent. you know, he was warned by colleagues in the snp about this coalition with the greens. it's an extremist party and the even the snp realised this would not be good. and he just ignored them and went on. and the other thing he did was slavishly follow sturgeon's agenda. it was a flawed agenda and people came to the conclusion quite quickly. it was because he didn't have an agenda of his own. he's not the brightest tool in the box. and the thing is, you know, to not to know people . he promised he to know people. he promised he was going to sort housing. he was going to sort housing. he was going to sort housing. he was going to sort the national health service. he's going to sort education. he did none of that. he just pursued this crazy dream of independence and the hate crime act, which the scottish people did not and do not want, i mean people, susan, i'll come to you on this before go to benjamin. >> but, you know, people wanted things like nhs waiting times down. they wanted their infrastructure sorting, they
10:34 pm
wanted their day to day lives to be actively improved. and instead, this guy decided to focus on quite fringe radical policies. >> yeah. i mean, i think it's pretty obvious to most people who look at it, you know, without a dispassionately that he can seem to care more about gaza than scotland . he pushed gaza than scotland. he pushed this agenda of woke stuff. you remember that famous speech he made when he criticised most of the major public service, the white speech, the famous white speech? yes. so—and—so's white. so just ridiculous that 96% of the 5 million population were white. he allowed a men to go to male rapists to go to women's prisons. as carol says, the orwellian hate crime act, where you could basically be subject to a seven year prison sentence for saying your opinions in your own home. but interestingly, of course, he avoided that vote on gay marriage too , didn't he? gay marriage too, didn't he? because it didn't accord with his own religion. so even his own wokeist well, he had a very important meeting that day, you know. >> but benjamin, i suppose the one positive maybe i don't know how you feel about this is that i think this is almost i mean, it's been a massive benefit to labouh it's been a massive benefit to labour. huge boost to labour.
10:35 pm
this. >> yeah. i mean, look, you know, i think humza yousaf clearly lacked the mettle of leadership regardless of party. can you believe he's still in his 30s? so his political career is over? yep. he turned 39 just a couple of weeks ago. so i'm sorry, but, you know, no offence, but nationalism clearly isn't for good you. frankly. the thing is that i think what we've seen between the tories and between the snp is that when you put ideologues in a position of power, then you don't get any of the things solved that people actually need in their day to day lives. i think that's, you know, you're not going to like this, but i think he's, you know, a scottish liz truss. i don't think he was obsessed with the detail that will help people's lives. well i think liz truss, i think that's a difference. >> liz truss was obsessed with detail that would help people's lives. and you can't compare humza yousaf and liz truss hand because they were ideologues who didn't know to how do politics, who didn't understand the countries that they were running i >> -- >> and, -_ >> and, you know, we're looking at, well, we will have three first ministers in two years, which is actually a more ridiculous record than westminster. >> it's interesting, though, because john swinney, they're trying to shoo him into the position. but kate forbes was
10:36 pm
the was the one who nearly won the was the one who nearly won the election last time. the scottish people like kate forbes, the snp, liked kate forbes, the snp, liked kate forbes and who was smart and others. >> can i just reveal something about john swinney? right, so, so obviously i was in the office earlier today because i was i was covering the 12 till three. i just was in there. i was just just between you and me. right, and so we got wind at like 9:30, 10:00 this morning that john swinney was going to do a press conference afterwards. so we knew that was happening. this is way before humza yousaf has resigned. right. so we're all waiting on tenterhooks and then eventually the press conference comes and it's not a conference. he comes out like he's just like people have almost doorstepped him. he's not. he's called them all there right ? and he goes, all there right? and he goes, i'm considering it. i'm really considering it. i'm considering it. i'm really considering it . we all know. we considering it. we all know. we know that you called that press conference. you called it like you had an announcement to make everyone, everyone . why do you everyone, everyone. why do you think we were that? no one, no one thought i was going to check one thought i was going to check on john swinney. >> but that's so interesting because, yeah, it's really interesting to have that
10:37 pm
background because i watched that speech and i didn't know what you've just told us, but i thought, oh, this is a leadership speech. i'm a family man. i am loyal to my party. i care about my country . of course care about my country. of course he's going to run. >> it's interesting you're safe. over the weekend was so. on his speech, he said that had been bad for his mental health and bad for his mental health and bad for his family. he was begging people over the weekend to help him keep his job. and it's interesting. you know, you say that labour might this is going to be good for labour, you know, he was slating him and the snp were slating labour as a right wing brexit party. and remember he also said he wanted to drive the tories out of scotland. so he had no help from them. >> i think on the question of who will replace him, carol mentions kate forbes, which was the person who lost to him, who was more socially conservative. i think her chances are very slim because the greens, who are the essential coalition party, the essential coalition party, the only one they can form a government with, have already said they won't work with her. so i think that's off the cards. >> but but they're not a good party for scotland. they were trying to cut carbon emissions by 75% by 2030. >> well, it's also it's also attendance. >> is this it for independence? >> is this it for independence? >> yeah, i think it is because
10:38 pm
it was just alluded to you know the greens. they also want to of course stop drilling for oil and gas in the north sea. now that is what scotland economy is based on. so you try and take that out of the then of course independence is off the cards. >> you make a good point. you make economic basis. he made some inexplicable decisions going on a family holiday to qatar just going on a family holiday to qatarjust a couple of months . qatar just a couple of months. seriously bonkers. so just a couple of months after hamas , couple of months after hamas, which housed, sorry, a qatar which housed, sorry, a qatar which houses hamas leaders. yeah, as you know, rampaged through israel like that. oh, absolutely. tone deaf and completely , completely idiotic. completely, completely idiotic. >> patrick tone deaf here. he said in his speech today, independence feels frustratingly close. what planet is he living on? the union has never been safe and never been away. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> and i think, you know, you open your show saying it's a good day for britain. well, i think it is because the united kingdom is has not been safer at any point in the last ten years than it is today. i agree. >> yeah. well, i would agree i said it, but yeah, absolutely
10:39 pm
not part of the story. >> it's a great idea that i was feeling. yeah. all right. okay. >> now get this. so the bridesmaids outshining the bride . well that probably would happenif . well that probably would happen if you invite margot robbie to your wedding . who . who robbie to your wedding. who. who says margot robbie is the real life barbie? okay i'm sure most you know she is. she took centre stage as she celebrated her best friend's wedding at the weekend. it was all a big secret. apparently. robbie arrived in queensland and the cameras were all over her instead of the bride . awkward isn't it? on bride. awkward isn't it? on a brighter note, they probably didn't have to fork out too much for the photographers. of course, this would never happen to me because no one could possibly upstage emily benjamin. that's right, isn't it? >> well, that's absolutely, absolutely right. >> it's also why i have such ugly friends so that i never have that problem. >> hang on a minute. i thought i are okay, all right. walked in.
10:40 pm
>> all right. what is it? right. okay, look. coming up, coming up, coming up. my favourite moment of the show. because i get to crown tonight's greatest britain and union jackasses. but i will be bringing you even more of tomorrow's newspaper front pages. plus a little bit more on this . we will be eating that this. we will be eating that live on this note. no, we won't, we won't. don't worry. welcome back to patrick christys tonight. i'm
10:42 pm
welcome back to patrick christys. tonight here on gb news. i've got some more front pages for you. let's do it. okay, so we start with the mirror . okay, so we start with the mirror. yeah. look. pure evil says the mirror . i mirror. yeah. look. pure evil says the mirror. i mean, this is the absolutely astonishing story of a career criminal who was free somehow to stab to death an
10:43 pm
87 year old person on a mobility scooterjust 87 year old person on a mobility scooter just five days after leaving jail. they've put pure evil on the daily mirror. i'm inclined to agree with them. look oh, gosh, talking of another evil act, we go to the sun now . are they honouring the sun now. are they honouring the hero teen? so the sun backs calls to give the george cross to student who very sadly died trying to save her pal amazing grace is the front page that they've gone for their today. the sun calls the incredible bravery of grace o'malley kumar to be honoured with the saint george's cross. we all remember that nottingham stabbing spree that nottingham stabbing spree that happened there . valdo that happened there. valdo calocane got an unbelievably soft sentence as well. they allowed him to be tried as essentially a mental health person and not actually a triple murderer and triple attempted murderer, which i think he is, and grace o'malley kumar was desperately trying to save her pal, barney webber sadly lost her life as well. so yeah. look good campaign now from the sun. i think most people would agree that that that's a completely justified . i'm going to go to my justified. i'm going to go to my
10:44 pm
panel now. i'm going to focus on the mirror, if that's for okay now. pure evil that the leader of a gang of robbers knifed an 87 year old to death in a mobility skewed to five days after being released from jail. from what i remember from this story, the individual had this 87 year old man had a kind of charity box with him on his scooter . right. charity box with him on his scooter. right. susanna saw you furiously shaking your head dunng furiously shaking your head during this story. furiously shaking your head during this story . you know, an during this story. you know, an absolute shocker, isn't it? >> i just think we have a state where judges, magistrates, they just seem to be so woolly and wet and give people the benefit of the doubt all the time. you know , you're an armed robber, know, you're an armed robber, you're a career criminal. why are you not locked up forever? what happened to that? three strikes and you're out . why was strikes and you're out. why was he let out at all? it seems crazy to me . crazy to me. >> as soon as there's a panel. if you get later. because they all get let out early, don't they? so there's a panel that that decides whether the parole board. yeah, that could remove the parole board that decides whether you're fit to be let out. and these people let criminals out all the time, who then go on to commit more crimes. so who are these parole board people? is it because
10:45 pm
they're just trying to free up spaces in the prison, which i suspect they are, because we don't have any target, i think i think that's partly the reason. >> yeah. i mean, we have a serious shortage of prison spaces at the moment. and so we know that judges aren't putting people behind bars for less serious crimes. and i think that's one of the problems that people are getting away with so many crimes that they go on to think that they can get away with heinous things. like what? i mean, why are people now just wandering into corner shops with machetes? >> i know there's always been a bit of this, right? but i mean, people, people stop caring, people, people stop caring, people stop caring, you know, brought you some footage earlier on. >> we stop prosecuting. >> we stop prosecuting. we haven't stopped caring. >> well, i mean , the people who >> well, i mean, the people who are doing it stop caring. >> the cops. there was there was a story the other day saying that more than half the burglaries in this country. and i've even looked at that. remember, the cops promised last year they would turn out for every burglary? well, they'll investigate. they haven't done that. >> it's like the majority of crimes are committed by a small minority of people. >> yeah, but police need to be visible. you want to see them on the streets? because i bet they
10:46 pm
wouldn't dare even try that if they thought i'd have more armed police visible. >> and i know this is controversial. you know, it's up to police officers if they want to police officers if they want to be armed police, of course, i wouldn't just make them be armed, but i. i actually far from seeming scared when i see armed police officers, i feel very reassured. i feel very reassured. and i just wonder again. maybe. yeah. because if you're taking a machete to a corner shop, you are that an armed threat, aren't you? if you come at an armed officer that you get shot . you get shot. >> where are the police? there will be no police on the beat. and this is why they do it, and it's why they get away with it. and we all know, you know, you get away with one small crime and you progress and become a career criminal. >> we can't keep on saying there's not enough cops in this country because there are more than they've ever been before. the one thing the tories have kept a promise on is the 2019 manifesto to put 20,000 more officers on the streets. >> except that except that the problem is that because they got rid of 20,000, then hired 21,000, you've got a lot of inexperience, maybe under—qualified people . and so under—qualified people. and so they're not doing the kind of job that you need. >> and what are they doing? are they you see some of the police,
10:47 pm
they're scrolling through people's twitter like, i mean, i'm saying they look like kids. >> i'm 32 and i think they look like kids. you know, it's just ridiculous. i just want to just whiz us through this story. so he was on the front of the daily mail of thankfully being given a bit more detail on this now by my wonderful team out there. so teachers have been given an unprecedented alert yesterday . unprecedented alert yesterday. and this, dare i say it, might affect your kids and grandkids. so watch out for this. it's an alert yesterday about pupils being targeted in a sextortion scam. so the national crime agency has warned that all 570,000 primary and secondary school teachers across britain , school teachers across britain, that children as young as five are at risk criminals from west africa and southeast asia are luring children online, tricking them to believing that they are in a genuine relationship or friendship with someone their own age , before demanding that own age, before demanding that they share intimate photographs or film themselves on a webcam. blackmailers then threaten to release the nude or semi—nude photos of them , either real or photos of them, either real or fake, apparently to their
10:48 pm
friends and family , unless they friends and family, unless they pay up. friends and family, unless they pay up. but how do these kids pay-7 pay up. but how do these kids pay?i pay up. but how do these kids pay? i mean, this is a lot to this. i mean, if we're talking about primary school kids, i mean, how are they going to pay? >> well, this is what rishi sunak has been talking about this week, isn't he wants to actually stop children under 16 having a social media account. he wants to stop them having mobile phones. and you know, the tech companies have been pushing back against this, saying that's completely restrictive. and i'm kind of inclined to agree. but unfortunately, this is what happens when you let children have access to a technology that i'm afraid is exploited by really nasty people. yeah, but it's hard to imagine a five year old being coerced into sending naked pictures of themselves. >> it's hard to imagine, want to think about it? >> but unfortunately, i don't want to think about it. confronted. it's hard to imagine that that would actually happen. you know, we know that kids in certain parts of the country, they're lured into into drugs. they're running drugs at five, 6 or 7 on kind of rough estates. but i've never heard of this before. >> i mean, it's horrifying, and i think it shows how much our schools and our laws are behind the curve because the kind of
10:49 pm
things that kids are exposed to are put at risk of none of us can imagine because it didn't it didn't exist when any of us were were that age. but also, you know, the ability to deal with these crimes, even for adults, is poor. the feminist campaigner patsy stevenson, who used to be on this programme sometimes she came public about how she was threatened with blackmail over personal photos . she went to the personal photos. she went to the police with the details of those messages and they said, oh, sorry, he didn't actually do it, sorry, he didn't actually do it, so we won't take the crime on. so if they won't do it for a fully grown woman with money and lawyers behind her, then what chance does a kid going to their parents house? yeah exactly. >> all right, so i have been showing you the man who has rocky balboa style eggs for breakfast. all right, well , breakfast. all right, well, here's more from the guy who calls himself the liver king. and it's another example of one of his favourite, albeit weird, meals. would you eat this ? meals. would you eat this? >> mo .

10:55 pm
split. we'll start with a lot of cloud across northern england, but i'm hopeful it'll brighten up here. there will be further rain for wales and northern ireland, some heavy rain as well. the yellows and the reds in there and also fairly wet for parts of southwest england. pretty gusty in these western areas as well. a few showers in western scotland but a good part of scotland dry. much of northern england, the midlands , northern england, the midlands, east anglia and the southeast having a fine old day and it will feel a bit warmer as well. look at those temperatures 17, 18, maybe even 19 celsius, but still on the cool side, where we've got the cloud and the breeze and the outbreaks of rain further west from that area of low pressure that does pull away, allowing for some warmer weather to move in over the next few days . but it weather to move in over the next few days. but it is not going to be dry everywhere. there will still be some heavy rain around that warm feeling inside from boxt boilers, sponsors of weather on

gb news. >> good evening. i'm ray addison in the gb newsroom. headliners is coming right up. but first, our top stories this evening and we start with some breaking news. the home office can only locate 38% of migrants currently approved for deportation to rwanda. now, according to a government report released earlier today. only 2143 of the 5700 migrants that rwanda had agreed to accept can be found for detention. all had been told
11:00 pm
that their asylum claims were inadmissible, but more than half have now stopped reporting to the home office comes after prime minister rishi sunak said he expected the first flights to kigali to take off in 10 to 12 weeks. well, maybe they're in ireland because ireland's department of justice is standing by claims that 80% of asylum seekers are coming into the country through northern ireland. it comes after refugee organisations questioned that figure released by the country's minister for justice. irelands deputy premier, micheal martin, has said it was not based on evidence, statistics or data . evidence, statistics or data. however, britain's northern ireland minister said the uk's new rwanda deterrent is clearly working. >> it was always going to be the case. we believed as a government that our rwanda policy would act as a deterrent for people coming to this country illegally, i think we are slightly surprised that it's manifested itself so quickly after the act, became , law, and
