11:05 pm
to see you again. slightly inappropriate pun perhaps. and finally, the daily star. nostradamus cousin. three lions to win euros. so that is the euros in the bag. and those are your front pages . so what are your front pages. so what are the sunday mirror going with paul? >> they're going with kate to have you back, which is a is a weird pun, but it's great to see her. i mean she, she it was a, it was a, trooping the colour today. she was wearing a nice white number. that's about as much as i can say about her outfit. >> i don't understand the first thing about clothing. i've actually got a stylist now who chooses my clothes for me. >> yeah, they've gone up a notch. yeah they have. >> i can tell you something about her outfit. those stripes on the bow are a reference to d—day. oh, wow. yeah apparently. >> great to see her. and it's great to see the king as well. both of them obviously having a very difficult, difficult year. they look both look very well . they look both look very well. i'm sure they're getting the best possible treatment, but i like the royal family. i'm a big royalist, and no surprise, i guess that's how you got the
11:06 pm
job. >> yeah, exactly. >> yeah, exactly. >> but, i was really pleased to see her there today. >> yeah. and i mean the dress, by the way, kinsey just gave us the maker of the dress, and i've already forgotten it in literally minutes, so we don't know. but she looked very nice andifs know. but she looked very nice and it's great to see her out. the king seemed quite emotional as well. he was he seemed quite moved. some people were saying, you know, is it because he's he's more ill than we think? maybe he's just thinking about his mother. i don't know what do you think, krista? did you watch any of it? >> could be all of the above, couldn't it? yeah. i think you might be spot on with the mother. although obviously the royals aren't allowed to have feelings like the rest of us, too. but i would find that very evocative if it was something tied to my parents. >> yeah, i mean, but the lizards really have parents. >> that's a great question. >> that's a great question. >> there you go. great question. >> there you go. great question. >> and we are joking. of course we are joking. if louis said that, he wouldn't be joking. but we are joking about the lizards. we love the royals and also meghan released a jam and some dog biscuits. i think it was her friend and her friend, but it was on her website or something like that. it was all very. i don't want to give out disinformation. i should have checked properly, but it was funny, so i said it. >> german dog biscuit sounds very meghan to me. >> yeah, it's just very.
11:07 pm
>> yeah, it's just very. >> i don't think anybody watching this will know what's on meghan's website. >> well, i mean, i don't want to libel anyone again , but she had libel anyone again, but she had to do she, she had to do something because it was meghan. anyway what have we got on the sunday times then? >> sunday times, pm faith and duty guide me through my election trials . so this is election trials. so this is rishi talking about his faith. of course he is . rishi talking about his faith. of course he is. he's rishi talking about his faith. of course he is . he's only got of course he is. he's only got prayer left. you would, wouldn't you? yeah. that's it. you absolutely would. rishi. good luck to you. so the prime minister reveals how hinduism helps him stay strong, and i mean , is he staying strong? i mean, is he staying strong? i mean, is he staying strong? i mean, i don't know, good for him if that's how he feels, and what's interesting about rishi is that we haven't had prime ministers or politicians really , ministers or politicians really, who've talked about their faith for a very long time. it's fallen well out of fashion. >> had he been christian, he might not have been able to. >> i thought somebody might say that. i thought it would be him, but. >> yeah, well, i mean, nick would agree with me, i'm sure. >> yeah, i think it's become very much out of fashion, shall we say, to talk about traditional christian values in this country, which is a huge shame . but it's good to see
11:08 pm
shame. but it's good to see people talking about faith. i like that he's talking about faith. he does say something quite peculiar. i know you picked up on this, nick. he said he was the original brexiteer. i think margaret thatcher might have, something to say about that. >> yeah, i mean, farage might have something to say. i mean, it's so funny, the original brexiteer, because he's just not associated with brexit at all, despite being nominally a brexiteer, no one associates him with that because it just doesn't fit his image and you just feel it was for convenience. maybe it wasn't, but it just doesn't really work because it doesn't really. it doesn't sell it, but no one else running can say it really can they? that's true. >> other than other than nigel farage. yes, but i mean, in terms of, in terms of the three, all the former mainstream parties, the former mainstream parties. >> exactly. yeah. i'm now calling them. yeah i mean, what was funny about this as well, i mean, he said he was going to fight to the last day. that's just how it works, rishi. that's that's that's how days work . can that's that's how days work. can you imagine if he didn't? >> i mean, that would be outrageous. just on the tuesday before. >> i'm fighting to the penultimate day and then that's enough for me to be honest. i've got a cricket match. yeah, i mean, it's madness, but, you know, he's had a tough time over d—day. you almost sympathise a little bit with that. and as for
11:09 pm
the faith, i say almost some people won't. but as for the faith, you're right. tim farron, leader of the lib dems, not leader of the lib dems, not leader for long. once he started going on about christianity too much. and then forbes in the snp, kate forbes, jacob rees—mogg sort of battled out it out, but he, you know, received a lot of criticism for his catholic views. >> yeah, they kind of accept it from him because most people believe he was around at the birth of christ. yeah. >> i can't let this go until we comment on this in hindu. this is rishi talking about his faith. he says in hinduism there's a concept of duty called dharma, which roughly translates it's about being, about doing your duty and not having a focus on the outcomes of it. isn't that an unfortunate . yeah, so that an unfortunate. yeah, so basically he's admitting that i'm going to do this even though i'm going to do this even though i'm not going to lose head down. >> i'm working away and i'm not thinking about what's going to happen. >> he could have been a bit more outcome focused yeah, but but if i'm being very fair, though, he did , that is what rishi is did, that is what rishi is about. he's sort of a hard working get on with it behind the scenes. he just doesn't understand politics. hence he won't be prime minister for long, but also the head of a party that, brand is dead . the party that, brand is dead. the brand is dead, as they say. but
11:10 pm
because we have to be very objective. i'm going to say the brand's not dead. so you've got balance. yeah, exactly. it's alive and kicking. so let's do the. i'm not sure if that's how it works, but i didn't go to the training sessions. but let's see your observer going. paul both parties will leave the nhs worse than the austerity years. >> so labour and the conservatives would both leave the nhs with lower spending increases than during the years of tory austerity. this is in the observer, which is basically the, you know, the guardian on sunday, according to an independent analysis of their manifestos. and here's my suggestion , because what they're suggestion, because what they're talking about the most anyone's talking about the most anyone's talking about the most anyone's talking about investing in the nhs is £2 billion. do you know it costs £10 billion per year to try and reach net zero, which is never going to happen. 10 billion, which is five times what they're looking to invest in the nhs. and you can look at the nhs and say there's no way you can ever do anything with it without reform. but i'll tell you what, £10 billion a year would make a huge amount of difference. so i'm here now standing for the gammon party,
11:11 pm
and i pledge three bacon sandwiches for all children and £10 billion a year. >> and you know what? you could stand as an for independent the gammon party and probably win a seat somewhere, because that's the mood of the nation. but do you know what? that is an interesting point, a net zero. i look outside today. i didn't go outside because it's lashing with rain in june. i'm going i think this climate thing is covered. let's take that money, put it on the nhs. what do you think, chris? >> well, i think this says that it's due to the conclusion here is after an independent analysis of their manifestos. well manifesto is don't talk about spending lots of money do they. so that suspect to start with. yeah there might be promising not to spend a lot now. but let's see what they actually end up doing. >> manifestos aren't exactly worth the paper they're printed on these days. let's have a look then at the sunday telegraph. >> the sunday telegraph, our fair lady lifts nation's spirits is their main headline. but there also going with jenrick. i share voters frustrations, but backing reform means a labour dictatorship. so he's. yeah i mean he's he's saying x
11:12 pm
immigration minister says the success of nigel farage's party threatens to kill off conservatism or indeed restore it. some might say, so i would expect him i he must be very frustrated because he's robert jenrick and he's, he's a right wing right person. >> yeah, yeah, he's just a tory from the 90s is what he is. >> interestingly, and i understand the strategy behind this, a vote for reform would split the vote on the right and give a massive majority to laboun give a massive majority to labour. is the fear. how about. and they haven't considered this yet. the tories stand aside and let reform take the tory votes. >> well, that is what reform will be saying because they've gone ahead in one poll anyway at least. and so they're very bullish on that. yeah. and that is very much the party line. cameron saying the same thing. you know you know you're just going to let labour in. and it could be a labour dictatorship because they get so many seats. but i think i'd like to see jenrick and farage together. i see jenrick as a kind of policy quy- see jenrick as a kind of policy guy. he came up with this very detailed immigration plan. he's a serious guy. he's known as an
11:13 pm
up and comer, but i'm not convinced he's the front man. so why not put jim mcmahon farage together ? that would be a party. together? that would be a party. >> i also think that equation doesn't take into account that there are a lot of tory old tory voters out there, ex tory voters, rather than age wise, that just won't vote because they're never going to vote for laboun they're never going to vote for labour. they're unlikely to vote for lib dem . and if you tell for lib dem. and if you tell them they can't vote for a reform, they won't. so you it doesn't take into account that there will just be none of the above. whereas reform actually gives people on the right . or, gives people on the right. or, you know, there used to be the centre of politics, an opportunity to vote for something they care about. so i don't i don't buy into it. i understand what they're saying, i understand it, but, i don't necessarily think it's true. >> okay. i'm desperately thinking how to offer balance to that, but, labour are great, i don't know. you didn't. are you against labour and the lib dems? >> no. i think all of them are equally as good and bad as one another. brilliant. >> we've got it covered for the ofcom stuff. so i think that's pretty much it for this section. that is, the front pages dealt with. but coming up, tice a head to head with
11:14 pm
starmer. will murdoch back labour and are people getting
11:15 pm
11:16 pm
11:17 pm
welcome back to headliners. i'm nick dixon, still here with paul cox and cressida wetton. and let's crack on and get on with it. so the number of private school pupils has gone up and presumably the observer are furious. paul. >> they're not actually. and i'll tell you why in a minute. a number of private school pupils rises despite claims families pnced rises despite claims families priced out by labour's vat plan. so the number of children attending private schools in england has risen. new figures show. now this is the guardian and of course they're very supportive of labour's vat adding to, private school fees . adding to, private school fees. and what they're trying to say is, look, there hasn't changed what, what they're omitting to say until much later in the article is these are figures that measure back between 2020 and 2021. this doesn't take into account the sense of feeling about this vat rise now, and it
11:18 pm
is the politics of spite. for me. they are anti aspiration labour at the moment and they they often are. they think that this is a huge this is a huge winner. if you hate people that have any form of aspiration or money. now i'm expected as someone from a working class background to obviously hate private schools, but i was talking to christa about this before we went on air. now we're not talking about the etons of the world here where people are going there anyway, and it doesn't matter if vat goes on. we're talking about people that are paying 15 to £25,000 a year to try and give their children the best possible start in life, and we can deny it till the cows come home or to the police run the cows over. but it's true that you do get a better , that you do get a better, experience in a private school and you're going to be hitting those middle class people hardest. >> yeah, well, that's what the left love to do. i mean, they hit the grammar schools and they destroyed those, which allowed my parents generation to have social mobility who were, you know, let my dad and they took that away, which i've never forgiven them for. and now they're taking away this is the
11:19 pm
kind of next best thing you can take away. it'll just be all education has to be the lowest common denominator. what do you think, cressida? >> well, what irritates me is the idea that if you take the money away from the private schools and put it into the state schools, that that's going to automatically improve the state schools and, okay, smaller class sizes. yes, that would help. they're talking about 6500 more teachers. but i want to see the catherine birbalsingh michaela school stuff. you know, the discipline giving making sure people turn up to school would be a good start. i mean, that's a major problem at the moment. and those things aren't necessarily things that cost a lot of money. it's a cultural change, isn't it? yeah. and that would be far more beneficial if you're interested in pulling people up. the michaela experiment is brilliant. we know that those kids get much better results, but i don't know . it results, but i don't know. it does smack of the politics of envy. >> it's disingenuous because these figures are so long ago. it's like saying it's like taking a poll of people about cigarettes in the 50s. people really like cigarettes , you really like cigarettes, you know, they don't anymore. >> and it's typical of people with left wing values to not think that imposing taxes is
11:20 pm
going to have an impact, isn't it? >> that's i guarantee this and i'll stand corrected . and i i'll stand corrected. and i don't know who wrote this. it doesn't tell us in our information the person who wrote this either went to a private school themselves or is friends with lots of people that did, and they pulled the ladder up. they've pulled the ladder. i'm all right, jack. see you later. here's 20% tax for you, please. >> yes. the worst thing is guilt from actually privileged people. very annoying. all right, let's do the mail on sunday and richard tice. the man's a head to head clash with keir starmer . to head clash with keir starmer. sounds dangerous, but he'll be fine because his wife works in a big nhs hospital and his dad was a toolmaker. >> chris o'shea reform chairman richard tice demands his party get a head to head tv clash with keir starmer, claiming his party is now more important than the tories despite only beating them in a single poll. so this is the reform big news this week that they beat the tories. they're now saying , look, we're the now saying, look, we're the legitimate opposition, not the tories. we should be allowed to take part in this tv clash and what's interesting is the bbc haven't ruled that out. so historically this this tv
11:21 pm
debate, the people who are ianed debate, the people who are invited to it, it's based on who had the most seats in the previous election. obviously that wasn't reform. they had one. but richard tice is making the case and saying , look, it's the case and saying, look, it's not democratic to do it that way. we matter. and if you don't let us into this debate, millions of people are going to be very, very angry . and of be very, very angry. and of course, farage desperately wants to get involved in this . and he to get involved in this. and he says, if the bbc wants a fight with me on this, they can have one. and i don't think that's a good look for the bbc. no no, it's really interesting. >> you'd expect you expect richard tice to say these things . of course you do. he's the chairman of reform, and you know, good on him for doing so. i think he has a point. i think what we need to see, you know, we can't they can't rely on that poll . that's a yougov poll poll. that's a yougov poll commissioned by the telegraph. >> it was one poll, but it was a big, beautiful poll. it was tremendous, tremendous poll. >> well, some of the best polls we've ever seen, if we get 2 or 3 more polls where they're points ahead of the tories, he has a really good point. i think they should push for this. i think we should see which we should see. the reform party stood up there with the former
11:22 pm
mainstream parties as nick dixon. >> well, what this is doing is it's highlighting the problem of first past the post, isn't it? it's kind of shining a light on it. so i think the bbc could make a decision. i mean, they might sort of they might get to a point where they have to do that anyway. if reform's popularity goes up and up. yes. but it's also shining a light on the fact that the system, favours the people that are already there. so in a way, the bbc might want to appease the masses by by having farage there. >> they might. and farage is always good tv for them. i mean, like you say, there will come a time presumably , where if the time presumably, where if the current trend continues, although the bbc said to farage the other day, well, it's a big if, isn't it? but if it continues then there will come a day when reform are the opposition and they'll have to do this. maybe we're not quite there yet. starmer's still dismissing farage, saying that clacton is pantomime, politics and so on. but when you think about some of the people on that seven way debate, i'd never seen some of them before . and then by some of them before. and then by the second one i'd already forgotten about some of them already. that welsh guy. can anyone remember his name? no. and then there's the green leader, which no one thought was even the leader of the greens since caroline lucas. no one
11:23 pm
knew who that was. basically, it was rayner, farage and morden and then some other people. >> you can't actually really have a seven way debate, can you? right. it's just have a seven way debate, can you? right. it'sjust i mean , you? right. it's just i mean, you've forgotten what the you know, you give them all a topic you've forgotten by the time you get to the sixth person's view on the topic of debate, you have noidea on the topic of debate, you have no idea what the first person said or what come along who was very, very shiny and a really good speaker. >> i think that would have come. it's an opportunity. >> absolutely. and nigel farage yesterday had his press conference and do you know what? he did it all off the cuff and it it was interesting and engaging. yes. >> yeah. absolutely. all right . >> yeah. absolutely. all right. let's do the eye. and when it comes to political parties, rupert murdoch's company only backs winners which some might say is cynical. but in case murdoch ever buys his channel, i'd just like to say he's a great guy, smart cookie ball. yep. i've always said about rupert top lad, top lad, top lad, top. >> aren't we back winners, murdoch? sunday, sorry. murdoch's sons are ready to give labour lukewarm endorsement. so labour lukewarm endorsement. so labour will miss out on a full throated, in inverted commas endorsement from rupert murdoch's newspapers, with labour leader keir starmer expected to win only a lukewarm
11:24 pm
backing from the sun. and that's, you might be thinking , that's, you might be thinking, maybe you look at this thinking, well, it doesn't make any difference. it does in the sense that the sun is always in my lifetime anyway, always been the predictor . and he's saying we predictor. and he's saying we only back winners because they do . yeah. you know, they often do. yeah. you know, they often jump do. yeah. you know, they often jump in and they take they often jump jump in and they take they often jump in and they take they often jump in later. they take their time and they pick and they go with the wind. what is interesting here is that it's only lukewarm because labour seem ridiculously far ahead in the polls. but even rupert murdoch , the shrewdest of murdoch, the shrewdest of shrewdest people, is saying, i'm not 100% sure see him as well. >> but yeah, i mean , lukewarm is >> but yeah, i mean, lukewarm is so funny because it's such a starmer word like blair apparently flew out to meet murdoch when it was that sort of sun. what won it era. but you can imagine starmer flying out and he's still only gets a lukewarm endorsement. and he goes, that's good enough for me. i just sort of accept it. >> he's got previous hasn't he . >> he's got previous hasn't he. with the sun, he was responsible for bringing criminal cases against sun journalists during the phone hacking scandal. so i get the impression that the sun
11:25 pm
offices, you know , he's not offices, you know, he's not there isn't a little gold statue of him in reception . so that's of him in reception. so that's something to get over, isn't it? >> there's a dartboard instead. yeah.i >> there's a dartboard instead. yeah. i mean, yes, but it does make. do you think it makes a massive difference to have that kind of backing? they claim it was the sun what wanted. but was it really. >> well, it feels like that's a bit of a dated idea. so that happenedin bit of a dated idea. so that happened in the 90s when they were selling 4 million print copies. they're now selling 1 million. but they also make the point in here that 9 million people a day see the brand online. but we see a lot of brands online, don't we? and now we're in the age of we're flooded with all these different podcasts and channels, and i don't know . don't know. >> yeah, i'm not too sure. it's a bit like betting on the winner of a 100m 50m into the race. when you've seen usain bolt just ten metres in front of everybody else. i you know, if you were putting money on it, you'd back laboun putting money on it, you'd back labour. but based on the polls. but what would be really interesting now is a hung parliament. it would just it would just break politics. there'd be no point in there'd be no point in the serious commentator anymore . it would commentator anymore. it would basically be us three sat at the
11:26 pm
bbc saying, look, those losers are gone. they didn't know what they were talking about. we're in charge now. >> i think i am pretty serious, but i take your point. i mean, you know what's funny about this? just finally, it is kind of ironically, the mood of the nation. like you say, they're backing them, but only in a lukewarm way. and isn't that what basically most people in the country are doing? but anyway, let's look at the sunday telegraph. and net zero policies are losing public support. who are losing public support. who are these entitled people who don't want to be poor and cold? cressner net zero policies have lost public support over the past two years, poll reveals, so support for measures such as low traffic neighbourhoods and subsidies for electric vehicles has dropped. >> and to give some examples in 2022, 67% of people supported frequent flyer levies and this has now dropped to 62. so that doesn't sound huge . but there's doesn't sound huge. but there's eight different policies here andifs eight different policies here and it's dropped in each one. it's also dropped, unsurprisingly, support for ltns low traffic neighbourhoods has fallen from 50 to 43. is that because people have used them? is they experienced them and decided they've worked out what it means? actually not that fun. and similarly with the electric
11:27 pm
vehicles , i mean, that's vehicles, i mean, that's dropped. and again, we always hear these horrendous stories about them not working and not having enough charge points. and all this . so i'm not really that all this. so i'm not really that surprised. what's interesting is the proportion of people who are very concerned about climate change has dropped, and i wonder whether that's just we've hit saturation point . yeah, it could saturation point. yeah, it could be because people are still concerned, but they're not very concerned. >> two things. it's raining in june, very hard. and i think it has been toned down in the media, perhaps because of the elections and perhaps because of all the wars. i it's moving out of people's minds. a little bit, but the media could easily shove it back in your mind again. what do you think, paul? >> well, i think net zero has become the new father christmas. i mean, it's great fun to believe in as you're growing up, but then you do grow up and realise it's impossible and ridiculous. >> so how dare you? >> so how dare you? >> i'm sorry . i >> so how dare you? >> i'm sorry. i mean, i'm i'm offended for father christmas. please do not play this in december , but it is, isn't it? december, but it is, isn't it? it's. it's for children . net it's. it's for children. net zero. it's for people that are easily convinced that these things are great ideas. yeah. smashing smashing me losing six stone in the next three weeks is a great idea . and becoming four
11:28 pm
a great idea. and becoming four inches taller. great idea. also impossible. >> okay. all right, well, we've got a little bit of time. i mean, i'm sure you can do it. by the way, paul, that's what i meant to say. but i was thinking about this very exciting next story about evs . so let's do the story about evs. so let's do the observer. it's a story about e—visas, which is what people in yorkshire call visas. paul lovely here all week . lovely here all week. >> exactly. rushed in inverted commas, rushed deadline for uk digital visas puts millions at risk of losing legal rights. so a bit of background here. more than 4 million non—eu migrants are living in britain, have these visas , which allows them these visas, which allows them to do a whole bunch of things , to do a whole bunch of things, sorry, have biometric resident permits that need to be transferred to visas. now, these burps give foreign nationals the permission to live in the uk for at least six months, demonstrate proof of individuals right to study , access public services study, access public services and claim benefits. so what's happening here is that all 4
11:29 pm
million of those people, for the rest of their six month stay, and they're able to claim any legal , benefits of being and they're able to claim any legal, benefits of being in and they're able to claim any legal , benefits of being in the legal, benefits of being in the uk, relies on the home office rolling out a system on time . rolling out a system on time. right. so this might be the easiest way to get rid of illegal immigrants. >> it's tough times for deliveroo drivers. basically very tough. yeah. i mean, i'd be concerned. but then on the other hand, we were threatened with covid passports. i mean, is this definitely going to happen? i a good question. it sounds like it is. it sounds like they're planning it, and as you say, i mean, leaving the government in charge of any major admin is a risky business, isn't it? >> yes. i wouldn't do it. i'd go private, but that's very controversial. keir starmer wouldn't do it. that is it for part two. but coming up, al—qaeda are on a drive, bear is cancelled and a police car rams a cow.
11:30 pm
11:31 pm
11:32 pm
soon. welcome back to headliners. let's crack on with the sunday
11:33 pm
times. and a police car has rammed into a cow in a way that has been described as unnecessarily heavy handed. what do you think? was he milking it? cressida was he milking it like a cow? >> this is a horrible story, sorry. that i've lost. >> shouldn't have made light of it. >> and, thank you very much, paul >> and, thank you very much, paul. right. home secretary demands urgent explanation after police rammed cow in surrey suburb . this is horrible, so the suburb. this is horrible, so the police have used their car to stop. okay we've got the footage there. i mean, it's not a lot of fun , i would say, if you don't. fun, i would say, if you don't. >> yeah. look away. >> yeah. look away. >> it's not. yeah yeah. look away. it's not a fully grown cow. it's a calf . oh, that is cow. it's a calf. oh, that is nice, and they apparently were trying to stop it for some time . trying to stop it for some time. they were worried about people's safety. and i know there are circumstances where people can die of being trampled by cows , die of being trampled by cows, but i found in a field. well, yeah, i mean, ijust never happened to me, but i think this is i mean, this really tells us
11:34 pm
something about the brits, doesn't it? because this is going to . cause if that had been going to. cause if that had been this is gb news cecil the lion territory, if that had been james cleverly's involved gone. >> no, no, you're right. >> no, no, you're right. >> if that had been a kid on a moped, had just stolen a mobile phone off an old lady and would run them over, we'd all be going, get in now. that's it. that's proper policing. >> but having said that, i'm an animal lover and i'm outraged and i do want them to explain themselves because obviously the rspca , rspca are involved now. rspca, rspca are involved now. chris packham's got involved. of course he has, and i guess there's going to be an investigation into this because it doesn't look on the surface like it was an appropriate use of force. >> no, no, it's really interesting. i don't like seeing i really did not like seeing that when i first saw it, it was sort of unfettered , and you sort of unfettered, and you could see everything that happened, and it just seemed the most outrageous thing i'd seen for a while, i do wonder if what the police could have done. i don't know if they know. i don't know how the. i mean, this was in surrey. this is on the outskirts of greater london. i don't think they. i don't think they knew what it was. it was a
11:35 pm
bit like that. it was a bit like when, you know, the people in hartlepool hung, hung a monkey because they thought it was a frenchman or something, you know, they didn't they how was it halifax or hartlepool? >> was it. >> was it. >> it was definitely up in the north—east. so i'm going to go with hartlepool okay. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> maybe it was but one thing i would say is i do wonder if they knew what to do. i mean i think there should be training now and there should be training now and the first thing not to do is run it over with your car. >> yes. it's a tough job, isn't it? policing. can i just say i hadnt it? policing. can i just say i hadn't actually seen the video and i made my joke at the start, so please don't tweet me because it was actually pretty horrific footage just to say the calf survived and has been to the vet and is on course for recovery. >> oh good. >> oh good. >> the calf survived, so it was good. >> and we'll be at mcdonald's sometime in the near future. oh dare you! >> it was a happy ending you've tried to ruin. let's do the sunday telegraph then. and al—qaeda has invited any anti—israeli brothers around the world to go and train with them. now, who says there are no jobs for arts graduates? paul >> hey. >> hey. >> lovely stuff. al—qaeda ianes >> lovely stuff. al—qaeda invites anti—west brothers to afghanistan. so al—qaeda has urged his supporters to go to
11:36 pm
afghanistan and train for special operations against israel and the west. now, i had to read the whole article just to read the whole article just to make sure that al—qaeda wasn't a pseudonym for the green party, turns out that no, they are talking about actual al—qaeda, and it's not really a surprise , is it? not really a surprise, is it? not really a surprise? these, these people don't like the west. they don't like israel, and they don't like the way the west. so what we're learning in here, keane, is that what they're trying to do is get other people not to, too. so, you know , perhaps and if we want you know, perhaps and if we want a quality , it is mad though, a quality, it is mad though, isn't it, when they talk about their brothers, wherever they are, you know, to join up and you kind of think these days. >> yeah, half the half of london would probably be up for that. what do you think, chris? >> well , i what do you think, chris? >> well, i think we're all going to be sorry that we didn't let jordan peterson at our youth, you know, because, i mean, i don't maybe i'm being naive suggesting that that being a wayward lad is what might lead you to this, but i suspect there's some of that going on, i mean, one thing you can say
11:37 pm
about al—qaeda is they're probably into discipline and manly pursuits . yes. yeah. manly pursuits. yes. yeah. >> but yes, it's indoctrination in schools and you are right. i mean, the indoctrination in schools and universities, it's a massive , sort of decades long massive, sort of decades long problem that we've got to try and solve. >> yeah . al—qaeda, the andrew >> yeah. al—qaeda, the andrew tate of the east. >> well, you know, i nearly said, i bet that they're going to be sorry we didn't let andrew tate talk to the kids. i thought, no, he's he's a muslim now, isn't he? although that's not to say that he's a terrorist, obviously. >> very good point. no don't get tate on you. well, yeah, he's got money and he could see it. and he. and he's my bro. all right , well, shall we move on right, well, shall we move on before we all get in trouble and do the sunday telegraph and the disturbing link between watching the footy with the lads and domestic violence. christie >> risk of domestic abuse will increase. whether england win or lose in euros, police say. and we do hear this a lot, don't we, that during important football games domestic violence rises. i'm always a bit, wary of that because i read christina hoff sommers book who stole feminism and not talking about the uk, talking about the super bowl
11:38 pm
sunday in the us. this statistic was misreported for years, and she investigated it. and when she investigated it. and when she got to the bottom of it, people were sort of passing it on one journalist to another. so i just always remember that. but having said that, this is talking about the met police talking about the met police talking about the met police talking about a new study from lancaster university which found that 38% increase, which is weirdly similar to that 40% super bowl sunday. there you go , super bowl sunday. there you go, so this is really warning people that that domestic violence could be on the rise. and it's talking about what to do about it. and it's like an awareness piece telling people , i mean, of piece telling people, i mean, of course domestic violence can happen to men and women, but really this is to women reminding them or telling them about the services that are available . and also, there's a available. and also, there's a point in here, saying that the vast majority of men who love football would never dream of abusing their partner , and also abusing their partner, and also that that football can be a force for good. and that's so true, because men that get involved in, again, discipline teams, all that good stuff that would come with a football team. i personally think in the long term that's that's good and
11:39 pm
leads to better well rounded chats. >> yeah, i mean i play five a side football once a week and it's the only thing that stops me from killing everyone. paul, what do you make of this story? >> click that up. that will be the clip when you go on your inevitable rampage after you published your manifesto, the signs were there. >> he even admitted, live on jvt. they'll try and attack gb news. they'll be disowning me. just a joke, guys. satirical content. go on paul, we do like crestor rightly points out, we hear this story. >> every major football competition. so apparently it's easier to write about than it is to solve. and i say that very cynically because obviously let's let's say this is an issue why every four years or every two years, because we have a world cup, then a euros, do we write the same story, then do nothing about it? why do we have why don't why don't we do anything about it? what is the solution to it? i mean, women are as involved in football now as men are. so our boyfriends getting beaten up when the lionesses lose, i don't know. i haven't looked at the statistics for that. well, no, that's just
11:40 pm
not on average, how domestic violence works. >> and also of course, when men attack women, on average, there's less damage , which is there's less damage, which is why more men kill women. or one of the reasons and i'm sure i mean, it's an ongoing thing, isn't it? it's not going to get solved. but it's really important to put people in touch with the services that are there. >> if it's happening, it's a good, you know, it's a valuable story. i hadn't heard the story you were talking about that that's kind of a fake news. >> well, i want to be really clear . >> well, i want to be really clear. that's that's in america. it's about super bowl sunday. and but it's something that. yeah, i always feel bad because i've quoted that so many times myself over the years. and then when i read about drilling, when christina hoff sommers drilled down into it and found the source, it was inaccurate. but anyway, domestic violence clearly does happen. yeah. and if it does, it needs to be sorted out. okay. >> good stuff. let's the observer. and there are chemicals that come and go, but if you're really lucky, you might find one of those special forever chemicals for. >> outdoor clothing brand still using forever chemicals despite health risk, so hikers may be
11:41 pm
inadvertently damaging the environment and risking their own health by wearing clothes made of waterproof made waterproof with forever chemicals . so forever chemicals chemicals. so forever chemicals does sound like you say. it sounds a bit like a recreational drug, i don't believe that it is the observer are preaching to their own people here because this is all about people who wear fleeces and patagonia stuff or whatever. they're just they're just out there in their, in their forever chemical clothing. and they don't realise. it's such a shame. >> it's always a great opportunity for a bit of self—flagellation and guilt, isn't it? >> they love it. it is the observer, which is the guardian on sunday and, when we've got a cost of living crisis, most people can't afford to buy these clothes, yet they're banging on about it like it's the biggest issue , it, you know, it's not issue, it, you know, it's not great, but , issue, it, you know, it's not great, but, hey, issue, it, you know, it's not great, but , hey, they're last forever. >> okay, i might try and fit the next story. unless you've got loads on this. let's do the independent and rumours that bear grylls will be standing down from the scouts because he helped russell brand with his baptism. so you can be redeemed in the eyes of the lord. but not
11:42 pm
in the eyes of the lord. but not in the eyes of the scouts. >> cressida. exactly. >> cressida. exactly. >> or in the eyes of the independent scouts. issue statement after reports bear grylls standing down following russell brand baptism. so apparently bear grylls is a christian. i didn't know that . i christian. i didn't know that. i thought he was just a legend out in his patagonia gear. >> now he's a double legend. well, yeah. >> so apparently russell brand's seen the light. he's he's now a christian in his late 40s, and bear grylls baptised him. and this has got back to the scouts and they've said, mate, we've got a well, i assume the reason is it's a branding issue. we can't be associated with mr brand, so, yeah , not not a story brand, so, yeah, not not a story of redemption. unfortunately. >> it's horrible cancel culture, isn't it? i mean, you couldn't get much more clear example, the baptism where you're supposed to cleanse your sort of sins and you're born again. it's like, no, no, not in the woke world. no, no, you're cancelled. you can't even know a guy that's trying to redeem himself or stand next to him in a river, it was russell brand ever charged or convicted of any of these? no. so i find it interesting
11:43 pm
that we have just bypassed the law an entire vie and said, russell brand is this hideously bad person . i've seen the bad person. i've seen the channel four documentary, but if we based our legal system on the channel four documentary on everything that came out on channel 4, we'd be in a lot of trouble. i think the scouts have missed a trick here. i think that bear grylls is a great person to be leading the scouts, particularly in this modern era . particularly in this modern era. he was the youngest ever chief of the scouts back in 2009. he has done absolutely zero wrong. other than help another christian into the faith. so you i mean, of course everyone's terrified now. the scouts, the scouts have fallen foul for the same thing. >> yeah, and it's supposed to be very fair. i'm not sure if there's like a definite direct link, but it seems he he was announced he was going to carry on the scouts. now he's not. so these are the sort of rumours. so. all right. that is part three in the bag. but coming up in final section i cops on saturn and labour. want to tax
11:44 pm
11:45 pm
11:46 pm
11:47 pm
welcome back to headliners let's crack on with the sunday telegraph. and as bruce springsteen once sang, there's a secret garden and we can tax you on it. secret garden and we can tax you onit.paul secret garden and we can tax you on it. paul, did he? well, not the whole thing. >> labour to spy on homes, to find sizeable gardens that could put up council taxes. tories. so homeowners with gardens will pay higher council tax under plans being considered by labour, it's been claimed. now this has been doing the rounds for a while before the general election was called. we've covered this on headunes called. we've covered this on headlines before. i don't know if either of you to remember, but i know i have counted covered it before. it kind of reminds me of the window tax of 1696, now it does slightly because you turn into simon evans. >> it was. yeah, it was all of a sudden, do you know what they consider it? a progressive tax then. and the labour will consider it if they were to do it. we'll consider this a progressive tax. now it's a nonsense basically, you know, back in 1696, if you had more
11:48 pm
than ten windows, you would be you would be, you would be taxed to block up your garden. no, you can't. so, you know, just, just it's the politics of envy again, is it? someone's got a blooming garden. i love my garden. >> you do. and so do your fans. >> you do. and so do your fans. >> paul , this is aimed directly >> paul, this is aimed directly at you. >> i've seen all your tweets about your garden. >> honestly, i've never been angry. >> actually, i feel good that you're going to be in trouble for having your garden. because i don't have one garden politics of me in the studio is i was so daft. >> we had starmer this week talking, launching the manifesto and saying we won't raise income tax. we won't raise national insurance, we won't raise vat, we're going to spank you for your garden. he didn't actually say that last bit , your garden. he didn't actually say that last bit, but it comes from somewhere, doesn't it? >> i think i think one of my followers said something like that to me once. very disgusting i >> -- >> how worrying, yeah. i mean, it's just tax isn't it? >> tax and taxing it. okay, on that note, let's do the observer. and as david bowie once sang, is there life on one of saturn's moons? it's a lesser known b—side , not a b—side. known b—side, not a b—side. >> i know. okay, is there life
11:49 pm
on one of saturn's moons? scientists plan a mission to find out, so they're taking a spaceship to space, and they're going to land on this. >> what's wrong with that? nothing. nothing. i met an expert. it's brilliant. lucky alan in the total spaceship . alan in the total spaceship. >> the discovery of water on this place, which is called , this place, which is called, yeah. go on. enceladus it sounds like a mexican. >> yeah. and saladas. yes, please. >> two, two for me. >> they're going to send. they're going to send a robot to find out if we're alone in the universe. it's apparently it's a really small moon. it's only got 310 mile diameter. so it's very small. why are they bothering? because it's got these things called geysers. i'm learning loads of words , which is like a loads of words, which is like a steam coming out of the earth . steam coming out of the earth. so if there's enough. oh, no. no, definitely not. >> they do call them. >> they do call them. >> they do call them. >> the point is, this little tiny moon has got heat, water,
11:50 pm
and, what does it call it? organic material, which is all you need for life. >> yeah. yeah, that's the only material there is generally, isn't it? >> i'm guessing that if there is, there labour attacks it. yes that would be my guess. we should probably start with uranus. can we attack saturn's moons? >> can we look at that? we're not sick of sticking plaster politics. we're taxing space. it's not a perfect impression, but it's good enough if you're saying something, it will do. funny. okay. it feels like we want to move on for now. so let's move on and do the observer with a story about the quantum compass, my favourite of the daniel craig bond films. >> yes . >> yes. >> yes. >> so funny tonight you're smashing it, nick. it's the perfect place. london underground host tests for quantum compass that could replace gps. so subatomic . so replace gps. so subatomic. so this subatomic instrument will be able to accurately pinpoint locations underground and underwater, where satellite signals are often blocked. so we're not going to be able to hide anywhere, now, are we? basically, you'll be. there is nowhere to go now. it's a good
11:51 pm
thing , paul. thing, paul. >> think about titan's sub. >> think about titan's sub. >> yeah. ella toone . >> yeah. ella toone. >> yeah. ella toone. >> no, it's not a moon. it's the disaster. the submarine that went down and nobody knew where it was. and we had a very intense few days . and what intense few days. and what i mean by that is all the front pages were about the same thing. and if they'd identified a lot quicker that their loved ones had been blown into 50 billion pieces, i suppose. yes. i suppose that's true. but this is great. this is great for people who want to explore the depths. >> well, i mean, it's going to get rid of lassie. we're all going to know. we're already going to know. we're already going to know. the boys stuck down the well, you know, we're going to have technology. it's just everywhere. now, i don't know if i'm happy with this, nick. okay well, on a similar theme, let's do the mail on sunday. >> an i cops are here. what could go wrong, chris? >> how i cops are already patrolling britain's streets. from the eye in the sky to facial recognition surveillance in supermarkets. the orwellian technologies being used to tackle crime. and some of this we've already heard about . we we've already heard about. we know about facial recognition. notideal know about facial recognition. not ideal because it's racist. it can't spot black people properly. it makes more mistakes on black people , which is not
11:52 pm
on black people, which is not helpful, so this guy, jake houfu herfort, head of research and investigations at big brother watch , warned the mail online. watch, warned the mail online. we're sleepwalking into a high tech police state. he thinks there's too much of this stuff going on. on the other hand, of course it can catch wrong'uns if you know what their faces. and then they turn up at an event with one of these cameras, bit handis that some people only have one hand. >> chris, i love sorry , chris. >> chris, i love sorry, chris. she didn't deserve that. she's my biggest fan. i love true crime, true crime documentaries, and there aren't going to be any in 50 years time because all the crime would have been solved by a couple of cameras. you can't even shoplift anymore, nick, get your head around that. what are your head around that. what are you supposed to do? what a teenageris you supposed to do? what a teenager is supposed to do? now, if i didn't have shoplifting, i don't know what i would have done. >> i think. i think shoplifting is quite prevalent at the moment. i think shoplifting is doing fine. >> could be could be used for illegal immigration, though. what you're saying is all crime will be solved. >> but on the downside, what will women watch on netflix because they love those true crime? well you and paul and
11:53 pm
paul coyte me and the women. okay, well, thanks guys. we've got to end the show there. sadly, it's pretty much over. let's have another quick look at sunday's front pages. so the mail on sunday has its . lovely mail on sunday has its. lovely to see you too, kate. the sunday telegraph has our fair lady lifts nation's spirits . the lifts nation's spirits. the observer both parties will leave nhs worse off than austerity years. the sunday times, pm faith and duty guide me through my election trials. the sunday express it's just kate, to see you again and finally, the daily star nostradamus cousin. three lines to win the euros. so it's in the bag for tomorrow. those are the front pages. that's all. we have time for. thanks to paul and chris for the headlines. is back tomorrow at 11 pm. if you're watching at 5 am. then stay tuned for breakfast. but for now, it's good night and god bless . bless. >> that warm feeling inside from boxt boilers sponsors of weather on gb news. >> hello and welcome to your gb news weather update brought to you by the met office. well it's
11:54 pm
going to be quite an unsettled weekend with some showers, some longer spells of rain, even some thunder at times this evening. and it's all because of this area of low pressure which is swirling around the uk , sticking swirling around the uk, sticking around for saturday and also sunday into this evening we'll see plenty of showers move their way across the uk. these a little bit heavy at times, particularly across central areas, and we'll also start to see some longer outbreaks of rain move their way southwards into parts of scotland. and a fair amount of rain around tonight, which means it's going tonight, which means it's going to be a mild night on offer. so to be a mild night on offer. so to start off on sunday, then these outbreaks of rain will slowly move their way southwards across parts of scotland. this could be a little bit heavy at times, particularly as it does push up over the hills elsewhere. it's going to be a bit of a mix, some clearer spells, but also still the odd shower at times too. a little bit blustery across the north—west of scotland and a little bit blustery for a time across southern parts of the uk. but winds generally easing by
11:55 pm
the time we reach sunday morning on the whole. then for the second half of the weekend, a fairly unsettled day with showers, some longer spells of rain and as the winds ease across the south, the showers will be fairly slow moving at times, but there should still be plenty of sunshine in between those showers and the rain across the north will gradually break its way up through the course of the afternoon as well. a little bit warmer compared to today. 21 degrees across the southeast , today. 21 degrees across the southeast, perhaps even 22 degrees if we see those prolonged , sunnier spells to prolonged, sunnier spells to start the week, then still plenty of showers across the northern half of the uk. still merging at times to bring longer spells of rain. but overall a largely dry day across parts of the south and southeast, we're still plenty of that sunshine on offer. there will still be some showers in the outlook from wednesday onwards. plenty of dry weather on offer too , with those weather on offer too, with those temperatures remaining around average. >> a brighter outlook with boxt solar sponsors of weather on
