quickly can it get to the bookies and make myself some money? i mean, it tells you everything that's wrong. with 14 years of chaos and decline . years of chaos and decline. >> meanwhile, nigel farage has suggested the west provoked russia's invasion of ukraine by expanding nato after missing out on last night's bbc question time leader special. the reform leader has taken part in an interview with the bbc's nick robinson. >> we've provoked this war, you know. of course it's his fault . know. of course it's his fault. he's used what? but we provoked. i'm the only person in british politics that predicted what would happen. and of course, everyone said i was a pariah for danng everyone said i was a pariah for daring to suggest it. george robertson , former labour cabinet robertson, former labour cabinet minister who went on to become the secretary general of nato, has in the last couple of weeks said the war is a direct result of eu expansion . of eu expansion. >> in other news, spanish police have rejected an offer of support from lancashire constabulary as the hunt for a british teenager in tenerife entered its fifth day. emergency crews are continuing to scour

stephen allan and my panel of comedians. this evening is the right leaning internet content creator who's tired of this left wing nonsense. leo kearse and for balance, right wing leaning internet content creator who's tired of this left wing nonsense, it's nick dixon. how are you both doing? >> good. thanks. yeah, good. >> good. thanks. yeah, good. >> loving life. i love change, so i'm enjoying being in this new studio. >> you deal with this very well . yeah. >> to say i'm a conservative, so i like things all staying the same forever. >> well, then, bad news, because we're in a different space and we're in a different space and we're not allowed out because of passes. anyway, let's crack on, let's take a first look at your saturdays front pages . the daily saturdays front pages. the daily mail goes with the west. provoked putin. the times has the headline jk rowling. labour has turned its back on women. the telegraph starmer will reverse brexit, says badenoch . reverse brexit, says badenoch. the guardian 300 million nhs patient records stolen by russian hackers. the financial times says a rich foreigners turn away from uk and the daily star a safe bet. and those are

your front pages. let's find out some more info. let's kick off with the times leo. >> so the times leads with jk rowling. she wrote harry potter, in case you didn't know that, says that labour has turned its back on women. she says she would struggle to vote for starmer and doesn't trust his judgement , starmer and doesn't trust his judgement, she says she struggled to vote for the party despite formerly being a member of the labour party, because she doesn't trust starmer's judgement and has a poor opinion of his character , which i think of his character, which i think sums up everybody who's about to vote labour pretty much. but yeah, i mean, i think with, with this particular issue, jk rowling is very worried about starmer's attitude to trans women. starmer himself has said he doesn't know if, if women have a penis or not, which, you know, is quite, you know, we get down to fundamental. we clarified by saying what? >> yeah. he said that he agrees

with tony because tony blair has now said that women don't have a penis. so now kie can say they don't care . don't care. >> beasley focus grouped it. he focus grouped it before and said, you know, i think most people think that women have got penises now and then he saw that that wasn't a popular opinion. so he focus grouped it again and decided that women don't have penises . but really, you want penises. but really, you want a leader who knows if women have got penises or not? >> i mean, the focus group might have been where he checked to find out, you know, maybe empirical research was done. maybe that's the kind of thing. the question i would have about this story is who is she going to vote for then? this is one of those where she might be. reform for ruth is kind of a reform. >> yeah. well i think she should vote for reform. >> i think a lot of people in ten years time will be like, why didn't i vote for reform? because i called reform , yeah. i because i called reform, yeah. i mean, that's the thing. she is still a lefty. you know, sometimes . forget this with jake sometimes. forget this with jake o'brien. she still doesn't agree with you, emily, on virtually anything except the gender issue, where obviously she's very sound. and, yes , starmer very sound. and, yes, starmer said it's wrong to say a woman has a cervix. but now the dark

lord, tony blair has sort of given the message with that bizarre comment that a woman is with a vagina and a man is with a penis. did you hear that's how tony blair put it. so now starmer can say it so it can include one in a jar. yeah, yeah, you can just be carrying one. but he clarified it on the, bbc very long, boring bbc show where he kind of he put it back to sunak joke about, brianna ghey and said it was like, distasteful about brianna ghey. so we kind of he kind of pivoted away. but the fact is, as rowling is pointing out, they're still not supportive of rosie duffield and they're still very dodgy on this issue, fundamentally. >> all right, let's have a look at the daily mail. nick, what's their front page. >> yeah, they've got farage. the west provoked putin. so apparently there's fury as reform leader as leo would say. it suggests nato was to blame for invasion. so this was a bbc panorama interview. and everyone's going mental because farage says something. it's actually fairly, straight. it's not that controversial. people like peter hitchens have said it. he's saying that we expanded eastwards further than agreed, which many people think, you know, expansion of nato and so on.and know, expansion of nato and so on. and he said, it's still

putin's fault, of course, but he said, you know, ten years ago he predicted this, and no one listened to him. and he was right type of thing. so it's not that he loves putin, it's that the it's this argument. the west had a hand in it as well. and of course, everyone's going mad. >> yeah. i mean, are we the front page is at least filling in a bit of a gap there. that's not true. they're not saying it's our fault. they're saying this is what upset putin, and then it's putin's fault for doing something. >> yeah, it's sort of fed into putin's paranoia and putin's idea of a sort of greater russia. i mean, if you ask putin himself as tucker carlson did, putin himself didn't say that you know, western expansionism was the reason he said, it's this, this idea that he's got of, this sort of medieval russia encompassing ukraine and probably encompassing other places as well . i mean, this places as well. i mean, this this to me seems like a straw man. it seems like wilfully misinterpreting what farage has said, he's presented a sort of nuance take on the whole conflict and also said, you know, caveat caveated it by saying, of course it was putin's fault. and, you know, i know for

a fact that this is very supportive of ukraine. he's he's taken vehicles to ukraine to donate to the war effort. so this, this feels almost as if it's a tory backing paper trying to, you know, harm the biggest threat to the tories in some way. >> i can just say we're three years into this project of doing this show. and have you just spotted that that's what newspapers do . the headline has newspapers do. the headline has got none of the detail that you actually need . it's how can we actually need. it's how can we possibly spin this in five words? that makes our side look right? that's what they always do. and now it's your side being . that is the interesting thing about the right having something to fight against. yeah, that's not happened for ages is it. it's just been the right fighting. the left and the left fights itself. yeah. and now there's a nice split down the middle of the right. it's fun times. >> yeah. but to me it's weird. and, you know, i sometimes argue with nick about this that, you know, i think everybody in the right should be supporting ukraine because they are quite right wing . right wing. >> yeah, yeah. you've said that thatis >> yeah, yeah. you've said that that is your sort of very bullish on this. ukraine thing, but other people see it opposite. there's this idea that russia is better for conservatives and ukraine's woke

to support ukraine. but you say it's the opposite because the sort of they're more kind of christian and conservative. >> and so on. yeah. ukraine's are deeply, christian conservative country, whereas russia is, far more , russia is, far more, multicultural and also, is really speedrunning the sort of multicultural , immigration, multicultural, immigration, compared compared to the west. >> so if you don't like gay nightclubs, maybe that's your place, maybe not that woke. >> i think russia's probably got more gay nightclubs. >> they don't like them. leo does, as you can tell , i'm in does, as you can tell, i'm in one right now. >> i'm moving on to the telegraph . leo. what they got? telegraph. leo. what they got? >> so the telegraph ham. starmer will reverse brexit, says badenoch. so the minister urges tory voters to stick with the party, despite a frustrating few years. well, i think either party that wins or , you know, party that wins or, you know, any party that wins is going to reverse brexit to a certain extent because we, you know, it just makes sense to be more , just makes sense to be more, augned just makes sense to be more, aligned with europe on trade and also with, with policy , and i also with, with policy, and i know that keir starmer, is

probably ideologically committed to that more than the tories would be, but i don't think the tories would, you know, the tories would, you know, the tories aren't building walls against europe. the tories are trying to align themselves with europe is being aligned , europe is being aligned, reversing brexit. >> back in 2016, it was one of the options of a brexit that you could have quite an aligned. but you still get the control. it would be our control being used to choose to be aligned. >> well, the trouble with brexit was it was really seen as, you know, whatever people say about it, it was about sovereign sovereignty and it was about having control over our borders . having control over our borders. and we've since learned that no matter what you vote for, you can't control your borders unless you vote for and actually sort of conservative right wing party like like reform, like jk rowling is going to do. >> yeah, yeah. interesting >> yeah, yeah. interesting >> yeah. she told me, so i mean, kemi i mean for a start , she's kemi i mean for a start, she's one of the few people that might keep her seat. so she has a she hasn't given up yet so she actually cares. she's saying reforms are wasted. vote there was a poll from the telegraph that only kemi and tom tugendhat

are going to keep their seats out of the tory big beasts, which would be extraordinary. and so she's warning that starmer wants to go back in. and i think that is true. if you speak to people in the blob and the deep state type people, that's what they're all hoping for. and i believe that's what will happen over enough time. and she's defending brexit, saying it's a 10 to 20 year project. we've only just started . she uses an analogy. she says if you were cooking a meal or building a house, people wouldn't come in and say, hey, it's not finished yet. she's like, we've just started . like, we've just started. >> yeah, well, we're not going to have macaroni and cheese for another 20 years. >> yeah, that's right. >> yeah, that's right. >> we're going to starve to death. >> no, it'll be a beautiful casserole in 20 years. and she's saying that labour will destroy and they'll bring in, regular regulations as well. that will disrupt it. and. yeah. fair enough. i mean, that's what she's bound to say. she's involved with trade and all these things. >> yeah. and keir starmer has actually said the opposite. actually said out loud in words . actually said out loud in words. >> yeah, but he says a lot of stuff, doesn't he. >> if that's the way you're going to argue. oh she can say she's making claims of what he'll do, has no actual authority over that. but when he says he'll, because of his record , he says he can't say his cervix. >> then. then he says women or women because his record is so

flip. floppery. yeah. slippery starmer. >> yeah, he's not exactly a conviction politician. i mean, keir knows that the polls are now saying that, you know, a majority of people want to roll brexit back. so he's going to go with that because he knows that it's going to i mean, obviously he'll do it in a way that doesn't ruffle too many feathers. but that's what he wants to do. >> fair enough . well that's the >> fair enough. well that's the front pages sorted. in the next bit, we'll get under the covers with you. your medical records be on the web and the tories have a gambling problem.

next. welcome back to headliners. i'm stephen allen here with leo kearse and nick dixon. and to the guardian leo hacked blood test results were released online. so now everyone knows they don't have syphilis . that's they don't have syphilis. that's my reputation ruined. >> so the records on 300 million patient interactions with the nhs have been stolen in a russian hack. so 300 million patient interactions might not

mean 300 million patients. details have been stolen, but they're saying it includes the results of blood tests for hiv and cancer. so, you know, quite personal stuff. so the attack, which is apparently by russian hackers, targeted synovus, which is a private nhs joint venture that provides pathology services such as blood tests and transfusions. so, i mean , i transfusions. so, i mean, i guess it casts a question over, private nhs joint ventures. if you're going to incorporate the, you're going to incorporate the, you know, private companies to try and improve efficiency, does it also mean that, you know, there's a weakness in data storage as well? >> well, what you should have is a standard that they have to meet if they want to partake of this interaction . but it's the this interaction. but it's the nhs. they weren't they hacked because they were still running windows xp five years ago. >> that's what i'm thinking. >> that's what i'm thinking. >> they need a hacker to get in their sort, their systems out. hackers are quite logical. get it running more efficiently. that's what they need. >> they might have done this because all of this data is now available online and it was encrypted by the hackers. so all

you need to do is wipe your hard drives and install the stuff. you can just get off the dark web like, no one. >> they say the stuff, you can just get off the dark web, see if i don't know as much about that as your browser. >> next thing, you're on the dark web, you're ordering a hit. but you know what? you feel better about it afterwards. >> this is the last person who said this to me was tom. ben's >> i do not go to the same websites, but however, this is the reason i gave blood last week whenever it was because the all the o week whenever it was because the all the 0 blood type people were called up because they couldn't work out. >> you were trying to meet, russian singles in your area. >> that's . look, i clicked on >> that's. look, i clicked on the thing. the next thing you know, i lose a pint of blood and one kidney. i don't really talk about that quite a lot, does this worry? well, everything health wise, this has got to worry you, nick, isn't it? >> well, it is this sort of part of the total war that russia engaged in. i do feel like they've sort of got the jump on us in some ways. you know, russia is ready for every type of war. they're allegedly poisoning people. i got worried for a second that putin's going to get me. they're totally not poisoning anyone. but you know, there's like cyber. it's hacking. who do you think of hacking. who do you think of hacking the nhs? it's falling apart anyway. putin's like, just give it a little push, you know what i mean? they think of

everything normal war they've done, they've just do them all. and so, you know, we need to fight russia on all fronts. what's their health service? can we hack it or something? i don't think they've got one. >> that's that's part of their strength is by not treating anybody for illnesses, they make it very hard to hack the health service. >> yeah. that's good. >> yeah. that's good. >> good point. well made nick the i paper the tories are getting tough with their national service plans. young people would be getting worried if it weren't for, you know, the obvious. >> yeah. this is, shocking. teens who refuse national service could get driving license points under tory plans. anyone who watched the who was sort of bored enough to sit through the question time special last night is tragically i was because i felt responsible. you know, this is kind of my job. yeah, sunak talked about this bizarre national service policy, and he said, well, you'll have a set of sanctions and incentives , and sanctions and incentives, and we'll look at the models that are existing around europe to get the appropriate mix of those. there's all sorts of things that people do across europe, whether that's looking at driver licenses or other access to finance. and that was access to finance. and that was a kind of scary line like , what a kind of scary line like, what are you going to freeze bank accounts like the sort of truckers protest in canada if they don't want to go and go to war or something? so it's

obviously now he just said in a spokesman has said, no, no, he was just talking about examples, stuff they do in latvia. he's not literally saying we'll do it. but he did say on the bbc, so people are worried and it's a terrible policy because it's another attack on young people. and it's already perceived that the tories only care about triple lock pensions, quadruple lock, etc. and kwasi kwarteng on this channel tries to defend it today saying, you know, it's about bringing people together because we're not cohesive as a society anymore. it's like, well, whose fault is that? do you think part of it is because of the massive numbers of immigration under the tories, you know, and other things we could do, like just stop the education system being, you know , all about indoctrination, about hating the country. i don't think national service is going to solve that problem. and it's certainly going to and certainly with the extra worry about getting points on your driver licence utterly insane. it's a great way to lose more votes. >> there was a story about three weeks ago that the average price of like newly passed 17 year old drivers trying to insure a car is three grand. so they ain't driving. yeah, so why not punish them by putting stamps on something that they ain't going to use? >> yeah, absolutely. and i mean, i do think that national service

could be a good idea because obviously we're going to need an army at some point soon to, to fight a big war with russia, but to put points on driving licenses, i think sunak basically pulled this out of the air on the spot. and, now it's been turned into a news story. but, you know, i think i think it's kind of , but, you know, i think i think it's kind of, it's not it's but, you know, i think i think it's kind of , it's not it's not it's kind of, it's not it's not part of official tory policy . part of official tory policy. it's just something he said when he was when he was spitballing the fact that you've got david davis. >> not that one, but the welsh one actually saying this will not happen. this is not a policy. but the headline, even though the journalist who wrote it knows that because they typed that up low down. but the headune that up low down. but the headline still does exactly what you're saying. if you can boil it down to a false headline that scares people, that's what they do. >> just for the record, before people tweet me, i'm not necessarily against national service either. in general, if we had a kind of generally conservative country, no divorce, death penalty, i'd be like, yes , whatever. you know, like, yes, whatever. you know, if we had like an actual i don't mind a bit of authoritarianism if we had an actual divorce, if i were willing to take i mean, if we had a kind of no, i'd get rid of no fault divorce and things like that, i'd make it harder. i'm just saying, if you

got to fight at the front line and lose a limb if you want to get divorced, i'm just saying, if we had an actual conservative country, a proper conservative government bringing in things like that, but it's the way they're done. and as a last minute vote winner, it just seems mental. i just think national service would have done me a world of good when i was youngen me a world of good when i was younger, because i would have become right wing much sooner. good point , leo, the good point, leo, the independent, the tory betting scandal and some of the ways that some of them are acting. i'm starting to suspect they put money on a labour super majority. >> yeah, i wouldn't, i wouldn't put it past them. so the tories are held in contempt by the electorate as pressure mounts on rishi sunak over betting scandal. so keir starmer has accused rishi sunak of a total lack of leadership after the prime minister failed to deny cabinet ministers are among senior tories who placed bets on the election date. so this is after multiple people connected to rishi are connected to the tory cabinet and apparently cabinet ministers as well have have been forced to deny that they've had a flutter on the polling date before it was announced to the public. so we know that, that mr williams , i

know that, that mr williams, i don't know his first name, one of one of sunaks closest aides placed a bet for £100 on the date being announced. and obviously . well, i mean, it's an obviously. well, i mean, it's an ongoing investigation, so i don't want to say obviously , don't want to say obviously, but, you know, it's a very interesting coincidence. you just need to know how many people close to him were putting money on wrong dates. >> yeah. and if that's not happened, you know, no questions in there. >> and obviously, you know , >> and obviously, you know, betting companies have got systems to flag up when, you know , there's unusual bets or know, there's unusual bets or whatever they say, like, wait a minute, where are all these people connected to rishi sunak, putting these these bets on. but i mean, if you think this is bad, wait until you find out about ppe contracts. that's really going to blow your mind. yeah it's craig williams, by the way, just for the record. >> but yeah, i mean, it probably does seem like a bit of fun. you know, you're falling apart in the campaign like let's have a bet on the election then you didn't think about the obvious implications of it. as you say, they're probably all betting that rishi was going to lose. the only thing is it gives starmer an open goal. he's like,

i would have suspended them, but because the one thing we know that starmer does is purge his party. we don't know anything else about him really. we don't know what he's going to do. one thing we do know is he gets rid of you. if you don't fit with the starmer programme. so i do believe that he would have suspended them, nick, the express reform has overtaken the conservatives again. credit where it's due though to the tories. they made most of that happen. >> yes. so it's nigel farage reform uk is now ahead of rishi sunak's tories in bombshell new poll, and has already been a few bombshell polls. but this comes from whitestone insight, who say that reform are up to 20% and the tories are on 19. so labour's fallen to 39, lib dems 12. this one still gives the tories as the they still are the opposition in this poll because they have 67 seats in this, with lib dems of 61 before money gets six in this projection, which just shows you how mad our system is once again, even if they beat the tories on percentage, they only get six seats in this poll, so yeah, but we saw a poll the other day from matt goodwin's company as well that the tories were down and reform were up to 24. so it is happening. the farage effect, the meme magic, the unstoppable, the meme magic, the unstoppable, the brilliant campaign videos

with his dog in the country also perfect. and it's having a massive impact and they're doing better than anyone thought possible. >> yeah, it is a bit funny as well that for years people who've liked the conservatives have said, we don't want to get rid of the first past, but no, no, no. like when 47% of the vote share gave them an 80 seat majority, no, no, first past the post. we're perfectly good system. but now reforms aren't going to perform as well as they would if we had proportional representation all of a sudden. first past the post is the big problem. >> yeah, and also, i don't understand how reform can be pulled at 20. that's a percentage point ahead of the conservatives but get six seats while the conservatives get 67 seats. >> how does that change the distribution . distribution. >> yeah, yeah. but even even so it just it doesn't make mathematical sense to me. >> like the snp nationally wouldn't poll incredibly well but get the seats because they're all focused in scotland . they're all focused in scotland. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> but even the tories, you know, there are certain geographical areas where, you know, down in the south you get a big concentration of tory voters, right. if you can get all the reform ones into a handful of seats, they'd win the seats. >> so are they getting like a

lot in a lot of different places to widely popular? >> this is the problem you want to do well in a tiny little area and just hammer that area. lib dems do it as well. >> but are we at are we getting close to an inflection point where, you know, another couple of percent and reform could just tip the balance and then get, you know, 200 seats? >> there is a point where that i don't know what the actual number is, but it is obviously a point where that happens. yeah. and it will happen. it is inevitable at the moment. >> it'sjust inevitable at the moment. >> it's just in the cutting in half the, the, the conservative vote, which just leaves the tallest bar graph is the labour one. unless you get something else whittling away at the labour one. yeah. reform aren't going to you know they can get into second place i suppose it's mantle. yeah. fascinating. all this psephology and all that rubbish like that isn't it. loving it, leo, the i paper looks like the only way that migrants are going to go to rwanda could be via tectonic plate shift. >> yeah. so the rwanda plan is being abandoned by home office staff. despite sunak flights pledge. and to be honest, sunak is probably cancelled. tectonic plate movement as well. so the

rwanda asylum plan is already being quietly abandoned by the home office, according to insiders. despite rishi sunak's vow that flights will take off next month if the tories win the election . so the prime minister election. so the prime minister has said his insisted that the first plane would leave for kigali in rwanda on the 24th of july, saying we've already started detaining people. the airfield is on standby, planes are booked but on the same day he made the statement the home office was freeing the asylum seekers who were supposedly detained to go on this flight from immigration centres. so, like there was a plan, like everything to do with the borders all the way through. it's all been bluff. it's all been theatre. nothing has happened. if the tories wanted border control, we'd have it by now. they've been in power for 14 years, so they haven't done that , labour 14 years, so they haven't done that, labour obviously definitely won't. so yeah, basically get used to being replaced is all i can say to british people. >> yeah, i'm not even sure if it's up to the tories. it's up to the deep state, isn't it? i mean, if the civil service don't want it, what can you do? and we

know the culture of the home office from that report by steve edgington that they think farage should be arrested, some of them. so that's what goes on in them. so that's what goes on in the home office. so it's hardly any surprise they don't want to implement rishi sunak policy that they basically don't like. and they know starmer is coming in soon. so like, why even bother setting it up? so what's going to happen is rishi is going to happen is rishi is going to happen is rishi is going to lose and no flights are ever going to take off after all this, after being his flagship policy , it was the trigonometry policy, it was the trigonometry interview with liz truss where they pushed her about the what is it the deep state does? >> because she was saying the deep state will thwart you. i was thwarted, they will thwart you. and they pushed on. what do they do? and she said, well, they do? and she said, well, they dragged their heels a bit and that's the only thing she could come up with is that they are slower at getting stuff. well she wasn't there that long, steve. >> they would have dragged their heels a lot if she was there a bit longer. i mean, it would have got really bad. but yeah, dragging your heels for 49 days, well, you can sort of understand the civil service being that, sort of, that, that wait, that stops the government moving, you know, too far either side that keeps the boat on an even keel. >> but really, i mean, we're in a bit of too much leeway there. >> like the issue is one of the issues is as long as you keep

having migration, you never have to take the slap in the face of a recession. you increase gdp and you go, oh, look, we're really great. the economic sorry , we've not sorted out this migration issue. so they're wilfully doing it, aren't they . yeah. >> no, i agree with that. >> no, i agree with that. >> they definitely deserve some blame for that as well. yeah definitely. i just know that the rwanda policy was very unpopular and anyway, get ready forjust endless labour government with the with the home office on board and just quangocracy it used to britain being just a banal economic platform. >> it's not a country anymore. it's just, it's just anybody can come here, you will own nothing. there will be no, your entire culture and history will be erased. and if you complain about it, you'll be called a massive racist. >> yeah, you'll owe nothing and you'll be unhappy. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> keeping it light, loving it. we're at the half way point, so it's quicker to plough on than to go back in the next section. farage is standing up to for men gays for gaza or either way, it will be a good

next. welcome back to headliners nick. the daily mail. someone shrewdly pointed out the logical flaw in the queers for palestine campaign . tell us more. campaign. tell us more. >> yes, many people pointed out. but now this is benjamin netanyahu who says calls he calls gays for gaza an absurdity and says you'd be shot in the back of the head and doubles down on public criticism of biden administration. so he says that's an absurdity. if i ever heard one, if you're gay in gaza, you'll be shot in the back of the head. and it's a good point. it's hard to argue with. apparently there was a recently discovered hamas documents revealed there was a top commander who was executed with three bullets to the chest in 2016 for the crime of being gay. i'm amazed he came out, given that he was in hamas, i mean, bald. >> i know he thought he'd get pride. >> pride month going in gaza overestimated how progressive hamas have become. so of course i don't want to make light of his obviously horrible, but he says that, yeah . and he says says that, yeah. and he says he's happy about in america, 80% would support israel, 20% hamas. so he's also going 20% is still mental. so and he's having a and he's and he's the other part of

the story is he's criticising biden america about delays with weapons, get into them and so on.and weapons, get into them and so on. and they've got a bit of a back and forth there. >> yeah, i mean credit where it's due . biden's obviously it's due. biden's obviously going to be slower at doing many things. you know, getting out of a chair is like a half hour project, so you don't expect your weapons and you didn't know what israel was and they had to explain it. >> and he's like, yeah, send them weapons. >> i love how they see the, gay sex is banned in gaza, punishable by up to ten years in prison under an old british era law , as if britain introduced law, as if britain introduced the idea of homophobia to the middle east. that's a lovely concept. oh, and joins me at that same point . and yeah, i that same point. and yeah, i just think, you know, oh, maybe britain should react , just think, you know, oh, maybe britain should react, conquer the middle east and say, actually, now equality for gays in there and everybody will be like, oh, well, these, these are the laws that the british people say . say. >> so that proves there's nothing left. he's can't blame us for in the world, genius. >> it's also like every like most stories about politics ends with, well, you've been in power for 14 years. why haven't you done something? it's not as if they didn't have a chance to repeal these laws. don't blame us for it. you could have

shifted it by now. >> yeah, they've repealed some other laws. i mean, i don't think britain passed a law saying you shall invade israel and decapitate , you know, people and decapitate, you know, people at a music festival. yeah. >> might not be a law. i don't know, it's a custom. but to the to the benjamin netanyahu , i to the benjamin netanyahu, i think he's got to move slightly to the right to try and keep his friends with him. now that the national, the government of national, the government of national unity has disbanded. yeah. >> and israel is facing war on two fronts in gaza and also with with hezbollah. and lebanon is going to be unsustainable . and i going to be unsustainable. and i mean, already is unsustainable. and i think nobody's really been paying and i think nobody's really been paying attention to the northern front , the war with lebanon, or front, the war with lebanon, or i say lebanon. lebanon is like a failed state now. it used to be a prosperous country, but something happened. you'll have to read into that. but, basically they've been sending so many rockets over into israel, they made so many towns uninhabitable . and, something's uninhabitable. and, something's got to be done . and, you know, got to be done. and, you know, traditionally israel would maybe call an america and say , like, call an america and say, like, look, we need a whole load of

weapons here to bomb all these people. but now the, you know, joe biden is facing an election andifs joe biden is facing an election and it's really unpopular with, with democrats to be to be bombing people , israel's really bombing people, israel's really stuck between a rock and a hard place. yeah, right. leo, the telegraph people are upset about the new head of sport at the bbc. but look on the bright side . he's a white guy. >> so the bbc sport chief has been criticised for trans articles . he pledges to leave articles. he pledges to leave his views at the door. so he's not going to be influenced by any of the views that he holds, he says. i mean, wow, amazing. if you can do it, so he was criticised for dismissing concerns about trans sportswomen. he said that , the sportswomen. he said that, the athletes who spoke out in transport, you know, warning about the presence of biological males and women's sports. so martina navratilova and sharron davies , have, you know, davies, have, you know, campaigned about this. he said they're not experts, despite sharron davies literally writing a book on this subject. and, you

know, both of them being esteemed sports people. so they're obviously experts. and he also in the same article, he, oh, man, this article is absolutely mental. like, it's absolutely mental. like, it's absolutely mental. like, it's absolutely mental. he compared, those who portrayed trans athletes as a concern to racists who might say things such as don't let black men in the same shops as you or they'll rape your women. this is something he genuinely wrote, and this is the bbc's new head of sport is getting paid about. i think it's a quarter of £1 million. and he concluded the article by saying how mad and nasty it would be to argue jamaican sprinters or ethiopian marathon runners should only compete against each other , as they also had genetic other, as they also had genetic advantages. so he's somehow suggesting that, that jamaicans or ethiopians are, so fundamentally biologically different as males and females, which is i mean, i guess hitler would agree with him, but nobody else would. >> well, he's kind of accidentally wandered into that key difference, hasn't he? no one can can be a trans racial person. if they tried that, it would be frowned upon. yeah and

yet we have anyone claiming they can just be the other gender. and he's kind of surely wandered into the fact that both have a kind of absurdity to them anyway, because people always say anyway. so i think there's many bad points within the article. that's just one of them. and the fact i noticed his tweets are now unprotected, so i don't i don't want them to get piled on. but i do think it's a bit if you are going to be bbc head of sport, if these are your views, very concerning. let's just say. >> yeah, but he said he's not going to listen to his own views. it's like like in that spider—man film. and green gobun spider—man film. and green goblin starts talking to himself in the mirror. but he's just going to ignore it. so that's, you know, that's a thing, nick, the independent is nigel farage and andrew tate fan. if so , i and andrew tate fan. if so, i bet that means that only fan model regrets upsetting him, because. could have got to work. >> yeah. so farage condemned for saying influencer andrew tate is important voice for emasculated men. and this rang a bell. so i thought, where have i heard this? well, it was on the strike at big podcast in february, so correct me if i'm wrong. aren't we? i've got a bit of a headache, but aren't we in june? i mean, it's just dredging through the independent. say, can we find any, any bad farage

story because we don't like the way he's doing so well in the election. >> but just to push back a little, then, when was the tweet that came from the new head of bbc sport? >> that was in 2019. that was basically yesterday. >> so, you know, and it wasn't tweet. >> it was an article in the times. so, you know , and i think times. so, you know, and i think that's more that is i'm just pointing out the tie. >> you know, you can dredge things up from. yeah. >> no i think that is actually different because that's those are your views and you're going into a job. but yeah, if they're not his views anymore and you can say that clearly, maybe that'll be fine now. but to me it's just like you're looking for farage stories. if he just said it this week, like the panorama thing, but to me they're looking for a farage story. but an all farage said was, you know, tate was a very important voice for emasculated. you know, he's like generation. you know, he's like generation. you three guys are 25. you know, you can't be blokes. you can't do laddish things. and he's just saying he's trying to reclaim masculinity. and he's saying if no one else speaks that sort of demographic , then i will. and demographic, then i will. and that's what farage does. he does well on tiktok. the other day he was with some young band and they were getting on and they loved farage. you know, the young people love him, which people didn't see coming. the idea is all the youngsters are all super lefty and woke, but actually young men are turning

to people like farage because of course everyone else just says they're toxic and evil. >> and some young women as well. >> and some young women as well. >> yeah, with their milkshakes . >> yeah, with their milkshakes. >> yeah, with their milkshakes. >> and to be honest, i've heard i've heard feminists, saying the same kind of thing. of course, young men in particular are going to be turning to people like andrew tate because they're offering something that , the offering something that, the rest of society doesn't. the rest of society doesn't. the rest of society just says , you rest of society just says, you know, oh, you're evil, you're bad. your whole culture should be should be erased. you know, you're you should you should be gone and feel you should feel feel bad about yourself. whereas andrew tate says, actually, you know what? you shouldn't. and here's how you can get bugatti. >> yeah, i mean, if you tell men they're toxic, like those two words are always sewn together. you've got a problem. you leave a hole where someone can say, being toxic is good. what you needis being toxic is good. what you need is someone to say, no, you're not inherently toxic. yeah i'm not. >> you know, your problem is, is with, my problem is with fryston takes. he unfollowed me on twitter, but andrew still follows me. so, you know, he's the cool one. duality of man. that's my view . that's how i. that's my view. that's how i. that's my view. that's how i. that's why i come up with all my views. do they like me? it's a

simple system. >> maybe it was part of his bail condition . condition. >> how dare you, leo the telegraph, johnny mercer's labour opponent, says that he can't talk about his military service. was he james bond? well, yeah. >> so johnny mercer has accused his labour rival of being a walter mitty in a row over his military service. so walter mitty, | military service. so walter mitty, i think it's a character more popular in america, but a fantasist who creates, elaborate backstories that didn't exist, so he said johnny mercer said he was in a debate with this guy, and he said my opponent lied throughout. he was challenged on his claim to have served in combat, which he could not stand up. i cannot believe i am standing against a real life walter mitty in plymouth . if walter mitty in plymouth. if there is one place you don't want to lie about your military service, it is this city. because plymouth has a tradition of military service . and he said of military service. and he said veterans in the room, including one who was sunk in the falklands but obviously went to the surface again, erupted and started to walk out. the hustings were ended now, yeah. i mean, this is this is, this is this is interesting because if

the guy can't see this guy, fred thomas can't see what his military service was, why is that ? it's like the tinder that? it's like the tinder swindlers. they always, you know, come up with this thing . know, come up with this thing. you know, i'm being i'm on the run. i'm being paid by the cia. but i also need your credit cards, and i need to , you know, cards, and i need to, you know, borrow a lot of money off you. >> but he does say that johnny mercer knows why he can't talk about it. >> yeah, that's what they say. that's what they is. >> he attended tinder swindler. >> he attended tinder swindler. >> he's a he's a tinder swindler. >> i sent him my credit card. he was. he said i was attractive . was. he said i was attractive. >> i don't want to speculate on that because i don't want to get sued again. so i'm just going to say that he's a we don't know. he may be unable to discuss because he was an important spy. we don't know why, but i do understand that one thing ex—military people hate veterans really hate is stolen valour. yeah, they really hate it because i watched, sas who dares wins, and they had a guy on there who pretended to be in the military in the paris and everything, but he wasn't. yeah, and at middleton, nearly smashed his face. and it was. it was quite scary. >> i did three tours of duty in vietnam, and nothing makes me more angry than these people.

>> yeah. you mean your gap year where you're doing mushrooms ? where you're doing mushrooms? >> dagenham, coming up in the final section , trump a good book final section, trump a good book and some paganism. that's just my usual before bed. stay

welcome back to the final section of tonight's headliners, leo, the daily mail. trump says he'll finally let us know what happened to jfk. don't give people ideas. when you're the president, you're a fool. >> so trump promises to release all the jfk files and reveals who he thinks was probably behind the assassination cover up.the behind the assassination cover up. the word problem probably is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence. but yeah. so trump was asked by co—host sharma, i shouldn't have started that. >> palihapitiya. >> palihapitiya. what >> palihapitiya. what was >> palihapitiya. what was in >> palihapitiya. what was in the jfk files that trump didn't release publicly during his first term? and trump said that he was encouraged to keep some of the information on the

kennedy assassination secret, and then made a bold claim regarding who was responsible for the cover up. he said , well, for the cover up. he said, well, this wasn't the cia that asked me, but i think the cia was probably behind it. and they wouldn't. they would have preferred it that i didn't release the rest of the information. so this is i mean, this is quite a teaser. if you vote trump, you're going to find out all this stuff that he was too scared to release during his first go at being president . so first go at being president. so that's i mean, that's that's a i'd vote for that. >> yeah. you know it or is it. he read it later on in his toilet. >> he totally knew . it's a, it's >> he totally knew. it's a, it's a, it's an incredible incentive to vote for him to find out why i'm the jfk. it's also an incredible incentive for the deep state to never let trump get in. that's what i'd be worried about, right? which is what's going to happen. they're already prepared to put him in prison. yeah. what if they jfk? am i allowed to say that? i just mean, what if they do a complicated film about him by oliver stone , the. oliver stone, the. >> yeah, i don't know. i mean , >> yeah, i don't know. i mean, it feels like. why are we not saying he's a puppet of the deep state for not releasing it in the first term? yeah but i mean, i think when you're president,

you're kind of a puppet. >> i think he said he wanted a puppet he's wanted to do, but he caved to in what they asked. >> he said he released a lot, but some great people asked him not to do so. that's what i think it is. >> great people. great people know that they're. that explains it, nick, the telegraph, it seems that, knockoff versions of ozempic will help you lose weight, but sadly, through the dying way. >> yes. not everyone's favourite method. so w.h.o. issues global alert over deadly ozempic counterfeits . so you have to be counterfeits. so you have to be very careful that you don't get an ozempic, counterfeit or ozempic because both of them are really bad for you. i mean, i mean, you got to look out for signs like spelling errors. i love that, like if it's called a zombie or something completely different on the packet will be all the drug names. >> the semaglutide and all that who's who can spot a typo in them. >> great question. yeah. so there could be a lot of hidden typos. i say i there are probably a little bit dodgy. i don't get sued by a snp, but you know i've heard things. >> yeah this is kind of worrying that dodgy like fake counterfeit zembic could have entered the regulator supply chain so it

could be dispensed by the nhs. you think you know you're getting something from the nhs, it's going to be safe. i mean, not everything obviously, but you know, mostly it's going to be checked and it's going to be safe and they're saying, no, some of it could be could be counterfeit. it could be more harmful for you than the actual ozempic is . and the way to spot ozempic is. and the way to spot it is spelling mistakes. it's like, this is like buying a knock off perfume from woolwich market. this is you know what? i've got to look on the bottom to see if they spelt fahrenheit, right. yeah, yeah. >> and there's an extra danger because the kind of people that will take ozempic are the kind of people that would take knock off a zombie. they're exactly the same market. >> good point, nick, the metro loads of people went to stonehenge for the solstice. i would have gone, but it seems like a really long day. >> yeah, it's all orange. it's all orange now anyway, so it's thousands. gather at stonehenge two days after it was spray painted by just stop oil. the most popular group in the country. and. but don't worry, the pagan community has carried on. nothing can deter these druids. so 15,000 people have gathered at stonehenge to witness the summer solstice. and it says something like, as usual

. and that's my favourite thing, is that it just carries on. we're not letting some of these people stop our druiding. how dare you? so don't worry , dare you? so don't worry, they're carrying on. it's just a little bit more orange than it was. >> i just love the just stop oil were actually chastised by stonehenge . the official. the stonehenge. the official. the official twitter or x account for stonehenge was like, because they said, oh, we checked this . they said, oh, we checked this. this cornstarch is perfectly safe. like for a start, i've got cornstarch in my cupboard. it's white. this stuff's orange . so white. this stuff's orange. so what have you put in it to make it not cornstarch? and secondly , it not cornstarch? and secondly, apparently stonehenge. stonehenge? stonehenge is a protected site is an ecologically unique site with over 80 rare lichen species of lichens on it. so, you know, for just stop oil to blithely chuck their orange chemicals all over it is disgusting. and also it's, you know, stonehenge is like, if you're going to talk about british culture and history, stonehenge is the ultimate symbol of that. so for them to do this, oh my god, i hope the druids bring back human sacrifice . sacrifice. >> dan azeez. but they hate britain. but you're right, with the lichens community, they kind

of really got their own demographic there, didn't they ? demographic there, didn't they? >> it's not too far away. it's a couple of miles away. there's a woodhenge down from stonehenge and you should go there. it's the worst place i've ever seen. really? because the wood's rotten. so they had to put concrete posts in. so it's not even a woodhenge anymore. and i when i turned up there, there are two parking spaces. it tells you exactly how good it's going to be, isn't it? that's all you need, leo, the daily mail claims the brontes were queer gender because they published books with male pen names. that's like saying i'm queer. gender because of that online account where i pretend to be anyway. >> yeah, yeah . this is basically >> yeah, yeah. this is basically a story about how academic ideology steers whatever they whatever they look at. so a museum has sparked controversy after suggesting that the bronte sisters , who, obviously were sisters, who, obviously were were the dinosaurs at the time , were the dinosaurs at the time, the bronte. so sorry, they might have been genderqueer because they used androgynous pen names. so they say that gender is explored in their work, with some novels even exhibiting gender queerness. but feminists and academics have rejected the claims and said that their use of pseudonyms was actually just

to get their books published in sexist times when people thought, you know, a woman can't possibly hold a pen, never mind write a book. so apparently in the 19th century, it was common for female writers to adopt male names in order to get their works taken seriously. >> yeah, of course you've got george eliot, who was absolutely standard thing to do. this is so moronic . and they say, oh, it's moronic. and they say, oh, it's sexist times. it was terrible, though, of course, the irony is now it's the opposite. you'll do better if you claim to be trans or non—binary. so we're an equally silly times. just just reverse reasons. >> yeah. all right. in the last minute, we'll try and fit this in, nick, the daily mail football commentary is annoying. shocker >> yeah, they want a roy keane moment. pundits at the euros leave viewers irritated by their grandstanding with alan shearer's rant during england's draw with denmark. the final straw i watched it. i didn't particularly notice shearer's rant. i did notice lineker got far more animated than normal. he's he's the presenter, but he's explaining how harry kane should have been running off his man and stuff. and i just think it was a very boring game and everyone was just a bit wound up that we have this incredibly talented team and we perform so badly. that's what it was to me. >> he just got a bit more range

in that next gear, hasn't he? he can. he can really, really move around. >> yeah. he's like oh it came to me doing this in my new lime jumper. yeah yeah that's what it was. >> these shorts are quite good. i can't do it. i tried and i can't do it. do you watch football. do you care what these people do. >> no i don't really watch football. but yeah i can understand them trying to trying to go big on social media and try and get more clicks and get another million followers so they can flog more next gear. they never compete with kane. >> he's the trump of football. >> he's the trump of football. >> they didn't try and flog any calendars though, so that's a blessing. the show is nearly oven blessing. the show is nearly over, so let's take another quick look at saturday's front pages. the daily mail goes with the west provoked putin, the times says jk rowling, labour has turned its back on women telegraph. starmer will reverse brexit, says badenoch and the guardian. 300 million nhs patient records stolen by russian hackers. financial times says , the rich foreigners turned says, the rich foreigners turned away from the uk and the daily star a safe bet. those are your front pages. that's all we've

got time for. thank you to my guests leo kearse and nick dixon. we're back tomorrow at 11 with some other people. if you're watching at 5 am, stay tuned right where you are because breakfast is on the way. next, have yourself a good one. >> a brighter outlook with boxt solar sponsors of weather on . gb news. >> good evening. welcome to your latest gb news weather update from the met office. this weekend will be a little bit cloudier than the week has been, but it's still going to be warm. but next week will be even warmer for the time being though, we've got a few weather fronts still moving in from the west. that's going to introduce quite a lot of cloud from western areas, but also some rain through this evening for parts of wales, north western england, much of scotland down into the south—west as well through this evening. and that's going to push eastwards through the night, introducing more cloud to central and eastern areas by tomorrow morning. now behind that does turn much clearer across parts of northern ireland and scotland. we could see temperatures as low as five degrees for northern ireland, but for many of us, another

fairly mild start to the day. however, sunshine is going to be slightly more limited. very first thing tomorrow, but for much of scotland it should be a fairly bright start to the day that will likely see a bit more cloud across eastern areas of scotland. perhaps into the far northwest as well a risk of the odd shower. but for many areas of northern ireland and scotland, a bright start to the day . elsewhere across parts of day. elsewhere across parts of northeast england, a cloudy start to the day, some drizzly rain as well across eastern areas of england , but for much areas of england, but for much of wales and the southwest, still fairly bright and that sunshine will become a bit more widespread throughout saturday. the clouds going to break up and lift up, and that will allow a few showers to break out here and there across eastern areas of england . but i think most of of england. but i think most of us should stay dry through the day on saturday. and in that sunshine still feeling fairly warm. we've got very high uv levels and very high pollen levels. temperatures climbing towards 24 degrees across the southeast, but widely into the low 20s. another warm day to come on sunday. there is a more

cloud arriving from the west through the day though, so it will likely be another cloudy start this time across wales , start this time across wales, northwestern england and into the southwest. but once again it will brighten up as the day goes on.andin will brighten up as the day goes on. and in that sunshine it will feel very warm. turning even warmer though. monday and into tuesday as temperatures climb to the mid to high 20s. >> that warm feeling inside from boxt boilers, sponsors of weather
