2:04 am
heading for new brexit clash with eu on extra migrants . the with eu on extra migrants. the times has homes on green belt and new dash for growth, and the daily star has drinkle shrinking your winkle. and those were front pages . and let's have a front pages. and let's have a closer look at those. tomorrow's front pages. starting with the guardian. they've got coverage of the french election. we just got the results in cressida. just got them. >> surprise surge for left pushes french far right into third place. and of course it's the guardian's. there's no possibility of a right. there's only a far right. so a left wing alliance was on track to become the biggest force in the french parliament last night, after tactical voting held back the far right . so tactical voting held back the far right. so there's tactical voting held back the far right . so there's been tactical voting held back the far right. so there's been a tactical voting held back the far right . so there's been a lot far right. so there's been a lot of this, right? you stand down and you go over there and we'll do whatever we have to do to make sure that the far right don't get in. yeah, it's very chaotic. so nobody's won, apparently they're having the olympics soon. that features a lot in this article. so it's all like they've had a divorce, but they've got a dinner party
2:05 am
booked and they're all trying to look like they're holding it together, but it's chaos. >> yeah, it's absolute chaos. nick. and also i mean, for all the for all the, you know, the french youth and the french centrists were sort of mobilising voters to get out and defeat, defeat what they call the far right, which are actually pretty sensible party. what what they've got instead is a hyper progressive socialist bloc led by mlenchon leading, taking, taking the most number of votes. >> yeah. i don't understand how that happened. >> i don't trust the french system. that's all i'm saying. it's got these multiple rounds. technically, it's first past the post, but as these multiple rounds to it, and apparently the national rally still got 9.7 million compared to 5.9 for the lefties . someone can check me on lefties. someone can check me on that, but i've just seen that on twitter, so it does sound similar to ours and that the popular vote was much larger. but there's some sort of seat based shenanigans i don't fully understand. >> well, i guess i guess, you know, in a lot of the rural, rural areas, everybody voted for or almost everybody voted for le pen, but then, you know , you can
2:06 am
pen, but then, you know, you can only you can only get one seat in each seat. >> yeah . it's going to be very >> yeah. it's going to be very hard for this week. we keep heanng hard for this week. we keep hearing about this populist movement. they're going to use everything they can to stop it. you've got the eu, you've got various shenanigans. and also macron in the centre. the alleged centre. he was so unpopular they were taking him off posters and leaflets. did you know that. >> yeah. >> yeah. well >> yeah. well same >> yeah. well same as >> yeah. well same as the >> yeah. well same as the i >> yeah. well same as the i mean the my local candidate, the conservative candidate leaflet came through the door. i mean i didn't know it was a conservative until i looked on the back and it's like tiny writing. i'm conservative, by the way. please don't hate me, but i mean mel and sean, i mean, this this far left bloc. i mean, they are, pretty incredibly, far left . cressida. they're they're left. cressida. they're they're they're essentially, you know, they're essentially, you know, they want a soviet union, but with more transsexuals and more mass immigration policy. >> okay, but le pen hasn't given up. i mean, 20, 27, they're saying now. so it's sort of like she's saying the tide is rising, but it just hasn't risen enough . but it just hasn't risen enough. >> so 2027 will be the presidential election. this is this is the election for the government. excellent. but the president of france does have
2:07 am
serious power. it's not just a figurehead like in like in ireland. but do you think this is a if they do slide into this sort of venezuelan style socialist economic collapse and have to eat their pets and their zoo animals, they've already got the recipes. >> so yeah, yeah, yeah. i mean, a lot of people bank on that, don't they. it'll get so bad that then the right will come back, but it's a bit of a risky game because your society collapses in the meantime. but do you think it'll be like farage? you know, farage is like going for 2029 now. maybe le pen or bardella really can come through in a few years. what do you think? >> yeah, i mean, it worries me because, you know, people are always saying this always jam tomorrow with the yeah, yeah, the right wing politics. it's always like, oh, things are going to get so bad. things are going to get so bad. things are going to get so bad that they'll have to vote for us. but really, what's i mean, what's going to probably happen in france is, you know, the overton window will shift. and then soviet style economics, i mean, they're already talking about reducing the retirement age, which is already about, you know , 28in already about, you know, 28in france and they don't work very hard before then. they're talking about increasing the minimum wage, and they're talking about introducing price controls. these are this is i mean, this is the economics of insanity. >> to be fair, if france was
2:08 am
having some sort of societal collapse, how would you notice? because everything is always on fire anyway. you know, i mean, there's constant protests, yellow vest chaos , violence. yellow vest chaos, violence. you're like, yeah, that's just a weekend in france. >> yeah, yeah. >> yeah, yeah. >> and we're moving on to the my new film. have they got in the front cover, >> other times. oh, i thought we were going to do the eye. oh the eye, i'll do the eye. i'm just going to stick with the program. do the eye. >> yes. >> yes. >> the eye has got labour heading for a new brexit clash with eu on extra migrants. that's just what we need. extra migrants. that's what i've been asking for in my stocking. so this is labour facing its first clash with brussels after the eu signalled it wants easier migration for young people aged 18 to 30 to come to the uk and study, live and work sounds a bit like the eu to the layman, you know, and i'm a mere layman in these matters. i mean, you know, the eu want free movement. i've heard of that before. like should we chuck in a customs union and a single market call the whole thing the eu? why not? so that's what's going to happen. we all know that labour are going to inch back in, but they're going to call it something else. it won't be called the european union. it
2:09 am
will be called something closer to europe . and david lammy wants to europe. and david lammy wants so it will be new europe, new europe, new new labour, new dangen europe, new new labour, new danger, new europe and david lammy wants a close relationship with europe. of course he does. of course he does. so that's what we all knew that was going to happen. the civil service are all secretly banking. not that secretly because i found out about it on starmer getting back into into the eu. and that's what it's going to be cynical. i've got chris put on the table. >> no, it's on the table, don't you think? i mean, since since we had the brexit vote, more people now wish they'd voted remain. i did remain, i did vote remain. i did remain, i did vote remain. i did remain, i did vote remain. i wished i'd voted leave, but more people now, you know, the public perception is tilted and so, you know, this is this is fair enough, isn't it? >> yeah. >> yeah. >> no, you're absolutely right. it could well be heading back in that direction. >> yeah. okay well moving on, i think we've got the times now. cressida okay. >> homes on green belt in new dash for growth. so labour to ease building rules and fight nimbys. so this is their big thing isn't it. growth. that's the thing labour are pushing at the thing labour are pushing at the moment. labour will announce the moment. labour will announce the restoration of mandatory local housebuilding. so it's
2:10 am
mandatory. you have to build house. >> if you don't you're going to be in big trouble. >> so this is like a push back on the stuff that gove did. i think it was last year, michael gove, he made some planning laws that were about love. it was, it was allowing councils to ignore targets for homes, if the people in that area didn't want them . in that area didn't want them. and that's what got brought in. so they're now pushing back on that and saying, no, we've got to have some house building. >> well, this isn't really fair on people. you know, you've already bought your house, you've got a nice view. you might not want a couple of tower blocks full of, you know, people from sub—saharan africa or wherever. >> you know, i don't agree with that. >> i hate planning laws. >> i hate planning laws. >> i hate planning laws. >> i think that's because you've bought a house yet. have you bought a house yet. have you bought a house yet. have you bought a house? >> you think they're great, but there's a lot of people like me that haven't bought a house yet. no, you can't if you own your bit of land, you own your bit of land. you can't say, i want to own the view of that bit and that bit. that's not fair. >> but the whole idea of planning, the planning permission laws is that, you know, if someone obstructs a view or whatever or is, is in your area, you have some say in that, and it's a system that you know, that worked for, worked well for quite a few decades.
2:11 am
nick. and now the now the labour want to rip it up. yeah and they also want to send they're saying, you know, these these houses that councils are going to build, they're going to send illegal immigrants or cross—channel migrants, whatever the euphemistic term is , to all the euphemistic term is, to all boroughs in the uk. so every council is going to have to, you know, build homes for , for know, build homes for, for people. >> yeah. i mean, they're talking about building on the ugly parts of the greenbelt, which is just that's just england probably. i mean, that's what i always worry about. like lewis, i think it was lewis goodall and lbc did a tweet sort of saying we could build in all he was taking a sort of a lovely trip on a train through the wonders of england. he's like, why can't we build on all this? it's like, because you're ruining the most beautiful country in the world. but, yeah, but we have to build like you already have in a lot of it. yeah, yeah, exactly. like ruined this last bit. so i'm reluctant in that way. i'm a bit of a nimby in that way. but of course, at the same time, i recognise we haven't built anywhere near enough homes. but also we brought in, of course, far too many people. >> so 5 million people, i think under under the last tory government. >> so we could sort that bit first, then probably only need about ten homes after that and finishing this section with the
2:12 am
mirror. >> nick, what have they got? chancellor i'll make every brit better off. >> which is, of course, rachel reeves with her very brilliant barb and her sort of wonderful robotic ways. i mean, we need an autistic chancellor because that's who we need to. i'm not saying she's technically autistic. i'm not making that claim. but because i haven't really read the story, i'm just adding some comedic effect. there's nothing to read. it's just one little box. i don't know, so i don't know exactly what she's going to do, but she's going to have to do. she's going to given a situation and it's going to be higher taxes or austerity or really both. >> i mean, it's going to have to be both because, you know, the country is facing a financial crunch and we're not going to be able to service our state pension debt by. >> well, and she's going to close the gender pay gap that may not exist. so that's going to cost more, isn't it. yeah. >> well labour are going to do that by transitioning everybody. so everybody thought they were going to discourage women from bringing up their own children and going to work. that is. well, that's part of the progressive agenda. i mean, i think they might they might steal some from the zimbabwean chancellor's playbook and make everyone a trillionaire. unfortunately, that trillion zimbabwean lira is worth
2:13 am
absolutely nothing. and you need absolutely nothing. and you need a wheelbarrow to buy a loaf of bread. but, you know, everyone's still a trillionaire. got that feel good factor? big wad in your pocket. >> yeah , yeah. no one can argue. >> yeah, yeah. no one can argue. label about. we made you all trillionaires. we stopped sticking plaster politics. everyone will be a trillionaire under labour. it's a great tactic. it's a great policy. >> wheelbarrows of cash. that doesn't sound like the early 19305. 1930s. >> 19305. >> it'll be fine . >> it'll be fine. >> it'll be fine. >> yeah. no. >> yeah. no. >> here's a lovely recipe for your labrador. >> here's a lovely recipe for your labrador . anyway, that's your labrador. anyway, that's the front pages dealt with. but coming up, tony blair's advice for keir starmer and reform wahaca dogs. find out what that
2:16 am
welcome back to headliners. i'm still here with cressida wetton and nick dixon. and kicking off this section with the times. and tony blair has given advice to keir starmer on reducing immigration. i assume he said don't do what i did, cressida. >> yeah, that's what he said. tony blair's warning to keir
2:17 am
starmer on migration. so he did this piece in the times yesterday giving him some top tips like, hey man, i've done this job. tips like, hey man, i've done thisjob. let tips like, hey man, i've done this job. let me give you some advice , and he's, he's talking advice, and he's, he's talking about fighting reform , it is about fighting reform, it is sort of saying like, oh, you've got to watch out for these outliers. you know, they're they're just getting away with murder. >> they're running riot jannik sinner like, you know, there'll be a populist uprising if, if you don't, you know, tackle these issues, don't tackle these. >> so exactly. he's telling him to get on top of migration. he's still going on about digital id cards. i don't really understand how that would help. >> so if somebody was here illegally, they wouldn't be able to get a digital id card. well, they probably would under labour to be honest. so then wouldn't they just be? >> well, no, but that's my fear. >> well, no, but that's my fear. >> they'd be in the same position as the person who unfortunately lost their passport. >> they just couldn't. they just couldn't get food. they'd try and use it and it wouldn't work. they're all different levels at that point. >> there'd be a kind of a sort of temporary permanent id card that you'd get given anyway. i don't know, i'm a cynic, so he's talking about that a lot. he's
2:18 am
talking about that a lot. he's talking about that a lot. he's talking about i, his that's his vision for the future. he thinks he can save billions by bringing in al. he thinks we've got to the end of taxing and spending. he thinks we can't do any more. so he thinks you won't need to. >> he's almost hinting that he won't need to raise taxes because the public sector will make such great productivity gains from al that we won't. i mean, i can't even say it without laughing , man. tax is without laughing, man. tax is going up. i don't know what he's playing that, but this i mean, what tony blair said here is, the focus should be on illegal migration, law and order and avoiding any vulnerability on wokeism. i mean, that sounds a lot like the reform platform. yeah.i lot like the reform platform. yeah. i don't know if tony blair is actually a secret farage fan, but i mean, do you think the left will do anything about illegal immigration and immigration as a whole? nick because, you know, they know that people that come in, migrants that come into the country when they're registered to vote, they overwhelmingly for vote labour. so there's a real incentive there for labour to tilt the electoral scales by bringing people in. >> well, i think if they listen
2:19 am
to blair, they will try and fix immigration because blair is very ruthless and understands that it's necessary now. yeah. theidea that it's necessary now. yeah. the idea that id cards are the solution is a bit convenient, given that he's been pushing id cards for about 30 years. i mean, it's like, oh, what a coincidence. that's the answer, and the i am sceptical as well. i mean, although we haven't seen blair gpt, we don't know what this new ai has got to roll out is, but yeah , suspiciously, id is, but yeah, suspiciously, id cards will be the answer. but i do think they will try and get tough on immigration to try and fend off the populist threat. you know, it's the tory wets haven't grasped this, but as you say, reform of grasp it. and weirdly, blair has grasped it and he talked about starmer's five missions. it's not pledges , five missions. it's not pledges, it's missions which had pledges, which is growth , nhs, crime, which is growth, nhs, crime, education, clean energy. but all that's all kind of fluff to me. but he was he did have a funny line about the lib dems. blair in this piece he said that, what liberal democrats want other than good things, is frequently a bit of a mystery. that was pretty funny. it was. he was pretty funny. it was. he was pretty tough about the whole thing. he recognised that labour had a kind of mandate, but it was a kind of fragile mandate given the way the votes were
2:20 am
distributed and everything. and he sort of, you know, it's very tough. blair stuff . it's you've tough. blair stuff. it's you've got a crackdown on immigration using id cards and you've got to fix the things that people want to fix. but yes, i don't know how the ai is the answer really. but let's see. >> yeah, i mean , i guess >> yeah, i mean, i guess technology could save us, but i'd say robotics, you know, self—driving cars for example, would be something that could save, really save the sort of tight labour market, and you know, maybe reduce the need for, for bringing bodies into the country to do jobs. >> yeah, we'll have a robot each. >> we'll have a robot each. anyway, we've got the sun now , anyway, we've got the sun now, and the reform mps are planning to enter parliament in the style of reservoir dogs. i've always said that politics in the uk could be livened up with more gun battles. nick >> yeah me too. it's a nigel farage and reform mps plan . farage and reform mps plan. reservoir dog style show of force on first day of parliament. so the memes are going to be amazing and i'm not really sure what that means. it just means that five of them are going to come in there and mess
2:21 am
stuff up and get involved and, cause a nuisance. it kills them , cause a nuisance. it kills them, it says. gloating. reform sources also revealed a hit list of nearly 90 labour seats they will target next, and a reform uk party source said the foxes are in the hen house now. there's not that many people in reform so basically that's farage or lee anderson. >> that said, that is because there's all those chickens. >> oh no, i just mean i just mean it says sources. it's like, which of the five was it? you know , and i know most of them. know, and i know most of them. was it ben? >> was it the silhouette like they do in panorama? yeah. to work it out . work it out. >> exactly, but yeah, they're saying we've shown we can win in the red wall. we're now second in more than 80 of their seats. so they are coming. so it is very like reservoir dogs. hopefully they'll play the soundtrack as they walk in. doom doom doom doom doom all in sunglasses. i'd like to see that very unapologetic , isn't he, nigel? >> that's his brand. yeah. >> that's his brand. yeah. >> no , absolutely. and i mean, >> no, absolutely. and i mean, it's a great point that they came second to labour in 87 seats, which is incredible. so, you know, with a few percent more. >> that's what he said. we are coming for labour's vote this next plan. >> and reform you know lots of
2:22 am
their talking points really appeal to the certainly the old traditional labour base. yeah absolutely. >> it says it's going to be a permanent nuisance in in the house of commons which will be exciting. but i think mainly farage has played that down and said he's focused on building the party. you know, as a whole infrastructure. that's what they really need to do rather than just it'll be fun to see him have a pop at starmer in the commons like he used to do in the european parliament. but the most important thing is to make it a professional party and do all the boring stuff. you have to do. yeah, absolutely. >> okay. well, the independent now with suella warning the tories that the reform party poses a threat to their existence. yeah, i think they might have worked out already. cressida, tell us more. yeah. >> i don't think this is from a month ago. this is a current article. braverman. warns tory party will cease to exist unless it neutralises farage and reform neutralises them . it's like neutralises them. it's like something that happens in one of those odour advert things. you know, like, well, it's like, does that mean for reason i'm out, so yeah, she's she's acknowledged all the failures. there's a few tories doing this
2:23 am
at the moment saying yes, look, we didn't do a very good job. she's talking about immigration. she's talking about immigration. she's saying we didn't deliver on that. we said we would cut immigration, but we just didn't do it. she's in this kind of reflective phase. she was interviewed this morning and she wouldn't talk about leadership . wouldn't talk about leadership. she's very much sort of like, we don't need to discuss that right now. we've got some we've got some thinking to do about what we've done . and that's just the we've done. and that's just the tone of this. then robert jenrick saying similar things, talking about what they didn't deren talking about what they didn't deliver, danny kruger of the new conservatives, talking about lacking competence. there's just a lot of this kind of reflective stuff. but none of it's very glamorous. yeah >> and, nick, i mean, there's talk that reform have split the right's vote. so, you know, the conservatives lost because there's another right wing party to, to vote for. but, i mean, this has been the left's problem all the way through for decades . all the way through for decades. we had in the 805, thatcher won because, you know, the sdp, split the vote from from labour and now the lib dems split the sort of left wing progressive vote from labour. so it's kind of unfair to say that this is a,
2:24 am
this is a new thing and a unique problem for the conservatives >> no, you're right. maybe the new thing is that it's on the conservative side , which hasn't conservative side, which hasn't been for a while. but yeah, the future is really splits throughout, isn't it. because labouris throughout, isn't it. because labour is still going to be split. i mean, they only they've squeaked through really. i know they want a lot of seats, but they're going to be split very soon. you've got the owen jones wing off voting green and stuff like that. conservatives are split. but yeah, clearly reform had a massive impact and suella is a great interview. go and watch it with camilla on gb news. and it's just she's very honest about what went wrong and thatis honest about what went wrong and that is very important. i'm sort of team suella really because she, she's, she's said she was listening to people on the doorstep. it's not that complicated. they say, look, immigration, taxes, the trans, the things that suella was highlighting. we didn't cut immigration. we said we would. it went up . yeah, taxes weren't it went up. yeah, taxes weren't cut and we were children were mutilated. it's quite good that she keeps pushing that point because it is insane what's happenedin because it is insane what's happened in that on that issue. and you sort of people don't talk about it that much. so she said, look, all these things happen on our watch. and so we now she said she didn't want to throw anyone under the bus, but she did slightly throw rishi
2:25 am
under the bus because she did sort of say, well, there's a bus over there. >> and yeah, i mean thrown under it. >> she didn't throw many people on it, but she did mention that rishi wouldn't go with her recommendations on immigration. yeah, that's the one. i suppose if he's already kind of gone. so maybe she doesn't mind having a quick pop up . quick pop up. >> robert jenrick said a similar thing. he said, you know, we said the tories said on immigration that we would do whatever it takes. but we clearly didn't do whatever it takes because it didn't happen . yeah. >> so and gemma is sort of saying the same things in a slightly more slick way. so he'll be the choice of some people and apparently krueger's backing him. danny krueger's one of the few people that did hold on to his seat. i'm gutted that miriam cates lost, but anyway , miriam cates lost, but anyway, let's see. >> okay, well, we've got the daily meal now and keir starmer pledged to clean up politics, so he's appointed someone to the house of lords who put porn films on their taxpayer funded expenses. nick >> yes, it's what anyone would do. it's, sir keir starmer hands peerage to expenses scandal. former labour cabinet minister who said disgraced people should not go to the lords. and this is ex home secretary jacqui smith, who admitted that to a certain extent she had been disgraced, which is incredible. yeah. but
2:26 am
there she is. anyway, she charged taxpayers for two porn films. not one, but two. you think you learn your lesson the first time? nate, >> pete, which piece does she not have a mobile phone? does she? not a tablet? >> no internet connection? >> no internet connection? >> i mean, no, this is this is the 1970s. this is the good. this is the good stuff. leo turns a zoetrope and there's a little horse galloping along. i mean, come on, this isn't your little porn. this is. this is waitrose. >> oh, god. >> oh, god. >> they want it to seem old fashioned because they're all inexperienced, aren't they? labour? now they want somebody that's had good grounding in an expenses scandal in the past. it gives some gravitas. >> phil, the former. >> phil, the former. >> yes, exactly. >> yes, exactly. >> so her ex—husband later confessed to watching it. and she also wrongly designated her sister's home as her main home for commons allowances. so the rayner playbook , i mean, that's rayner playbook, i mean, that's the thing. i mean , rayner has the thing. i mean, rayner has got away with whatever she did. this person is now in the can get a peerage. starmer's not going to clean up anything at all, is he? he's just going to get away with more because he's because he's starmer, because
2:27 am
he's on the left and she's returning his education minister as well. >> so it's good. you know she's setting the moral standards. >> yes. and teachers. and she's a real blair hire as well. she was from the blair era. blair's back pulling all the strings. we know this. and starmer is going to get an easy ride from the media. he's like a one man lockdown. he'll get the easiest possible. you know how lockdown just got an easier ride. oh why can't you lock down more with starmer? all the journalist questions will be like keir, why are you so amazing? that would be just all the questions would be just all the questions would be clapping him while he eats an ice cream. >> it's disgusting. joe biden all over. >> yeah. yeah, exactly. he'll just come up and say, as you can see, today is wednesday. oh it's amazing. it's going to be like that for years. it's disgusting. sorry. okay. >> well as a taxpayer, that's exactly what i want my money spent on. politicians, husbands watching pornography. anyway, that's it for part two. but coming up, nigel farage takes over tiktok and the nhs isn't fat people seriously. see you in
2:31 am
there's a new social media influencer in town, and his name is nigel farage. nick? >> yes. he's down with the kids. nigel farage is seeking to cash on cash on cash in on. that's not my mistake. gen z youthquake. after bragging about reform's dominance on social media in the election, with his party enjoying a rapidly growing under 18 fan base. so yeah, farage just says something's happening out there. something remarkable because he says it's unlike anything he's seen with the brexit party or ukip. they've never had this youthquake, which comes from tiktok , and we've kind of seen tiktok, and we've kind of seen it before. i mean, for a start, labour will be scrapping that 16 year old voting thing as soon as they aware of this banning tiktok. yeah, or they'll just let 16 year old women vote because this is all young lads basically that love farage. and they don't have the stigma that they don't have the stigma that the normie , centrist dad, 40 the normie, centrist dad, 40 year old has all farage's baddies all right wing because they don't have any. they don't. >> i've heard this is something to do with racism. yeah, i heard that somebody said it on facebook and now i'm scared, right. >> and they remember like the romanian thing. they remember farage and all this, all the sort of smears against him,
2:32 am
whereas these young lads just see like a seeing him in the jungle. >> not. >> not. >> yeah, fun guy, mad lad, very full of riz. >> i believe that's the term tons of riz. it's very calm. i mean, a lot of young boys, they haven't been allowed to see any functioning men of late, so it's like, no wonder they're just transfixed, you know? >> what is this? >> what is this? >> that's true. actually, girls has been banned. you're not allowed to be a scout anymore. so you see a competent man, and they must just fall in love with him. >> here's a man who's not crying. he's not putting on lipstick. what's this all about? this is, this is something to aspire to. and also, i mean, young people. the interviews that i've seen with them, and the comments i've seen on my videos and, you know, videos by lotus eaters and people like that , there's a lot of young that, there's a lot of young people. well, men mostly, there's a lot of young, young people who see the sort of injustice and see through all the i mean, they haven't been indoctrinated yet. they don't have that fear yet of losing their job have that fear yet of losing theirjob because have that fear yet of losing their job because they're have that fear yet of losing theirjob because they're called their job because they're called racist, because they like the wrong thing on social media, and they still want to be rebellious. >> yes , that andrew tate factor, >> yes, that andrew tate factor, sorry to mention him, but it's that thing of you know, if your teacher doesn't like it and you're 15 or 16 or 17, why
2:33 am
wouldn't you? >> yeah, absolutely. >> yeah, absolutely. >> good way to wind your mum up. >> good way to wind your mum up. >> yeah. who'd have thought? who'd have thought, who'd have thought? being slightly right of centre, which is what i call it, would be you know, the punk rock. >> yeah. yeah. no, wokeness is going to be completely lame to teenage boys. the only question is, will they vote? a lot of them are too young to vote. will they remember to vote like, oh, i like farage and actually go to the little place and put the pencil. it's different from just watching a tiktok video. yeah, it reminds me of trump 2016 similar energy, but they've got to actually vote. >> yeah, they're not going to be voting yet. no. >> but i'm saying will they isn't it. yeah. no. >> five years time. >> five years time. >> but will they remember by then. will they become actual farage voters? that's what we've got yet to see. >> will there be a new social media influencer? >> yeah, it's going to be me and goes into politics. >> we've got the guardian now and labour's clacton candidate, who said he was running for every black and brown person in the uk and wants to drink white man's tears has accused nigel farage of being racially divisive. >> oh labour candidate defeated by farage reveals safety fears dunng by farage reveals safety fears during campaign. he's talking about safety this . i don't want
2:34 am
about safety this. i don't want to hear it, so this is jovan owusu—nepaul, who's 27, so he's quite a young guy. he's the labour candidate in clacton. so obviously he lost to farage. and this is a piece in the guardian . this is a piece in the guardian. he's saying things like, i had people tear up my leaflets. and you do think, well, it's politics, darling. you know when you get comedians that sort of say, oh, it wasn't very nice and i had to get a taxi very late at night. you're like, maybe it's not for you. maybe you should go into knitting by a car. well, it's i just i mean, i'm not saying it's okay to be racist. obviously it isn't, but he talks about a torrent of abuse on social media, and i think. >> the only thing i want to push back on is like, try being on gb news, like i've got entire organisations writing hit pieces on me and i'm not even famous. i get the worst of all worlds. like when i cancel this guy, i was like, who? it's horrible. but i mean, i mean, and there's a serious point because farage is getting milkshaked and this guy is like, people were mean. it's like, did they throw anything in your face, though? >> yes. did they chuck cement at your your your boss maybe didn't pay your your your boss maybe didn't pay for him to have a cat. >> he's missing an opportunity because we've seen farage getting heckled and he turns it into a win doesn't it. because
2:35 am
he just he's kind of good natured about it. even the cement, all of it. and if you do this, i don't think it's going to help his case. >> and nick also feel that the left have used really racially divisive language. i mean, this guy, you know, he's spoken about, you know, joked about wanting to drink white man's tears, which, you know, might be funny for this generation, but, you know, if you flip the races and say that, you know, if you said it in ten years time, anti—white racism probably won't be acceptable then. >> so it depends how it goes. >> so it depends how it goes. >> because we'll all be. we'll all be, probably it'll be illegal to be white. we'll be living running around in pushback on that. >> it's well, let's be clear. >> he someone put a post saying something about anti—white tears. he replied, my favourite dnnk. tears. he replied, my favourite drink . so tears. he replied, my favourite drink. so maybe he was joking if we're going to be very fair. but i think i do agree with your point. we were joking before, but it is horrible for people to be. i don't want people to be abused or especially not have milkshakes thrown at them and things like this. milkshakes thrown at them and things like this . but i think things like this. but i think you're right that the left pushed this for a long time. antifa, certain other extremist groups , kind of pushed the
2:36 am
groups, kind of pushed the envelope on this kind of thing. so now it's bound to make the whole atmosphere more, you know, volatile. >> so when other people do the exact same thing that they've been doing, yes. you know, they're suddenly, oh, but that's racist. and it's like, yeah, you were being racist. >> so although he is very stylish, this guy, he is very stylish. >> yes. >> yes. >> fashionable guy. he seems like a very charismatic guy. so, you know, maybe he's got a strong future in politics. on tiktok, we've got the times now. and good news, nick. state educated plebs like us have the power now. >> that's nice. oh, that's nice. i know no one's told me, but, apparently it's arrived. so is the era of posh boy dominance really over? if it is, it's too late for you and me, leo. but, it's basically this idea we keep heanng it's basically this idea we keep hearing now that the new labour cabinet is just filled with, you know, people from in oliver, from a charles dickens novel who left school at 12 and, you know, went up a chimney or something and the crew about, you know, oh, angela rayner was pregnant when she was 16. >> as if that's some grand achievement, rather than just something people did at my school. >> yeah, it's not a good thing necessarily, but but she came back from adversity as the point. but the thing is, one
2:37 am
thing that annoys me is when liz truss was the first comprehensive school prime minister, they were all no, she wasn't. theresa may's became a company and it wasn't a good thing then. now it's an amazing, great thing because they're on the left. i'm kind of torn because i said the other night, i think probably life was better when we were ruled by ten posh blokes who never had a single meal that didn't still have shot in it because every meal they was was killed , was, was by was was killed, was, was by someone in a red coat, and they ate a grouse and that was their breakfast. >> i'd agree with that. the custodians of the land . custodians of the land. >> yeah, i had no i had no power, but i still don't. you don't want plebs to have any power because they're just people. they don't know how to rule through the system. and we want to we don't know how to rule. we want to. >> we don't like their posh bourgeois dogs. so we go. and i was trying to say, is it borzoi? it sounded like i was saying bourgeois, you know, the borzoi, the, the russian aristocracy had these fancy looking dogs. >> no one knows what you mean. >> no one knows what you mean. >> killed by the communists because they look too fancy . because they look too fancy. >> okay, >> okay, >> i what? that was it you. you don't want to answer the question. >> who are you? simon evans question. no one else. what are you talking about?
2:38 am
>> i don't like the eton steps picture. i don't want to live in a world where people don't have a world where people don't have a chance. there's nothing wrong with. >> oh, so you don't. >> you don't want to go back to britain when it was actually green? >> no, no. >> no, no. >> you want to live in a soviet union state satellite state? >> yes. why don't you? you've outed me. >> why don't you move to. i was going to say move to france. why don't you stay in britain? >> well, a couple of things. it's the left that got rid of grammar schools, right? and they got rid of social mobility. so that's what it's really about. they're going to tax private schools. they hate meritocracy. and the elite will still survive. i mean, it will be the children of rachel reeves and so on. that will be the new elite, you know, and also the elite never goes away. it's just now we have the woke ivy league that's still there. you know what i mean? >> absolutely, absolutely. and we've got the independent now with landlords making rules that sound impossible to enforce. cressida, the worrying trend of landlords banning tenants from working from home, how do they do it? >> apparently this is really common now in what appears to be a new trend. adverts for shared homes have been appearing, specifying that the potential new occupant must not work from home, which just sounds insane. i mean, how does the landlord know what you're up to?
2:39 am
>> i understand why this is no shared homes, so they want to make sure because there'll be 19 people staying in there. so they want to make sure that the one bathroom that they've got doesn't get too crowded with people. >> i think it's people who probably are suffering in the cost of living crisis and can't pay cost of living crisis and can't pay their mortgage. and so they want to get somebody in. but not that much. right? they just want the money, but they'd like them to go out. >> oh, once you get, you know, it would be ideal for somebody who's, who's just here during the week. yeah. and then goes somewhere else. >> the actually one that says more or less. yeah >> but that's because it's large. i mean, to be very fair to that person, it sounds like that's a sort of logic. it's someone already living in the property. it sounds more like a lodging thing. but yeah, obviously it's insane. i mean, because everyone's working all the time now, right? there's no line between work. i'm working at every minute or not working. it'5 at every minute or not working. it's exactly the same thing. how can you not work from home? >> you're allowed to read your emails, right? >> i mean, yeah, where's the line between work? everyone's working from a landlord. >> once when i was a student who said no double beds in this house, it encourages guests. >> that was. i know what that's trying to stop. anyway, we've got the guardian now with
2:40 am
concerns that the nhs don't take obesity seriously enough. this is a bit rich coming from the guardian, which spends most of its time telling us that land whales are stunning and brave nick, which they are for balance. >> much of much of nhs one. yeah much good job. much of nhs in england does not take obesity seriously enough, as you said, and basically it's the it's the old integrated care boards icbc to you and me leo and they're not to look at their regional groupings of nhs trusts of course. and they've not made any effort to tackle obesity. and everyone's saying what are you doing. this is the main problem isuppose doing. this is the main problem i suppose the question is how are you tackle it? i mean, i suggest, you know, fining people for being too fat, lack of funding for bariatric surgery and all that. >> and then finally, towards the end, it does say that actually it's about preventing obesity. first before worrying about ozempic prescriptions and all this madness. i'm so glad my mum gave me broccoli when i was a kid. imagine. >> yeah, that was the acerbic of the 19805. >> yeah, no bullying was the ozempic bannau when i grew up. i mean, i got bullied for being
2:41 am
overweight at school. it's horrible. but i do advocate fines for overweight, including me. i sometimes get too overweight. i should be fine. >> i mean, that's a that's a great idea because if fat people have less money, they'll have less money to spend on ice cream. yeah so it works. >> but you need you need the stick and the carrot . yeah. we stick and the carrot. yeah. we need a carrot. literally would be nice. >> we need a carrot . >> we need a carrot. >> we need a carrot. >> but what's the stick going to be? you know? >> well, being fat, the stick is.look >> well, being fat, the stick is. look at that carrot. >> well, no, but it's not, because if people just everyone's obese, it's two thirds of people are overweight. so it's obviously not working is it? we need more sticks and more carrots. >> we need we've obviously eradicated poverty a bit too much. we need to somehow fine tune, just get the balance right with the pot. so people have, you know, just enough poverty that they can't eat that much food because people always say, oh, it's actually very expensive to eat healthily. and, you know, it's not the money. poor people's foods have got more calories and it's like, well, if you eat less of that food, it's not going to cost you more, is it? >> it is incredibly hard to eat less, isn't it? i often try it myself. it is hard because it's uncomfortable. >> and this is my orwell point. he said. in the road to wigan
2:42 am
pier. he's looking at the poor people spending all their money on sugary tea in those days. and he's like, look, they've got nothing else. and if you're having a rubbish time, yeah, that's like my life is going to help. >> yeah, it's all i have. >> hope things have changed in sugan >> hope things have changed in sugar, actually, you know, spurred the industrial revolution on because it did give people more energy and it allowed them to work longer. so yeah. and it's interesting, but that's part three nailed. but coming up in the final section, the youngest mp, and servants are to told hide their left wing bias in a
2:45 am
welcome back to headliners. we've got the daily mail now. and is it just me, or are mps getting younger? chris? adam. >> westminster's new baby of the house, hits back. sam carling, 22, who is now the uk's youngest mp, dismisses claims he doesn't have real world experience and asks why critics think being older makes you better at the
2:46 am
job, well, he's he's 22, he's very young and he says no one's been able to explain to me yet why being older makes you better. >> but for me, i can tell him. >> but for me, i can tell him. >> what would you tell him? >> what would you tell him? >> because you've had more time doing the job, sam. >> it's called life experience and a prefrontal cortex. so the two main ones, you don't even develop that till you're 25. absolutely. >> especially in a man. >> especially in a man. >> yes, but he's been doing lots of things. i've done quite a lot for my age as well. i don't know how he speaks. i just imagine it like that. that's it. he's been a councillor for a couple of years, a councillor. >> what kind? with an e or with an i with, with an i. >> he's been in he's been another type of politician. >> so essentially a useless parasite. well how can he be useless? >> he's been responsible for about £17 million of public money. >> well, that's a tiny fraction. that's 0.0001% of what labour are going to waste. >> look, good luck to him . his >> look, good luck to him. his laboun >> look, good luck to him. his labour. i wish him the best. but he shouldn't be an mp. he's too young. i'm not gonna listen to a 22 year old. it's absurd. by the same token, boomers are at fault as well. they're complacent. they hogged all the money. xennials are the only people i
2:47 am
listen to or trust. >> boomers like this show. >> boomers like this show. >> xennials it's on that cusp between gen x and millennials, basically people like me and a few others. oh, am i you're a gen x? actually, i'm a yeah, i'm millennial . technically, yeah. millennial. technically, yeah. because i'm younger. >> i'm younger than you. they're getting old now . getting old now. >> yeah, yeah, but xennial. but i'm a sort of a xennial because i'm a sort of a xennial because i'm right on the first bit. so they're the greatest people. they're the greatest generation, right. >> you sound like trump's great, great people. >> so i trust but i don't. but 22 is too young. come on. it's just you can't you can't listen to anything when someone younger than you tells you something, don't you just ignore it and also younger people, young people are always idealistic and ideological like you see it in the snp. >> they've got these like young or they had before they were all chucked out. anyway, i better move on to the next story. the daily mail again and civil servants have been advised to hide their blatant left wing bias . nick. bias. nick. >> imagine that. civil servants ordered to stop clapping labour ministers so loudly to avoid the appearance of bias. have your bias. just don't show everyone you know what i mean. don't just spread it around everywhere. i mean, you know, it's so ridiculous. like, can you just tone it down a bit? guys don't tell them about the bias. as if
2:48 am
we didn't know. i mean, tell them about the bias. as if we didn't know . i mean, they're we didn't know. i mean, they're saying, you know, rachel reeves came in. it was a bit taylor swift. i mean, it was absurd. but you probably saw that video. everyone like clapping for them. to be fair, there was a similar video for rishi leaving, so i don't know what that means, but, it's pretty absurd, but. and then there's this idea . now they then there's this idea. now they try and tone it down in the article by saying it's like it's not. it's not that they're so competent necessarily these new labour people. and one example they use is that, sue gray doesn't like anything written down. that's a bit eccentric, isn't it? in 2024, don't write stuff down. >> who doesn't like paper trails? >> the oral tradition. yeah, yeah. >> been in court cases and seen. >> been in court cases and seen. >> oh, that's how they that's someone who's been investigated by people like sue gray no. like, if i would do this to someone, what would they do to me? don't write anything down. sorry. carry on. no, i. >> yes agree. you're right. it's not official though. >> it's just, not official though. >> it'sjust, no, it's what not official though. >> it's just, no, it's what they say about her. >> be balanced . >> be balanced. >> be balanced. >> okay. you got anything to say about it? >> no, i think that we've got the times now with a cure for stress. >> that left me speechless. >> that left me speechless. >> cressida heard about the cure for stress. when you're not allowed to speak, this sounds like hell on earth. people are
2:49 am
going to book clubs , rambling going to book clubs, rambling meals, whole holidays where you're not allowed to speak and paying you're not allowed to speak and paying lots of money for it. it's the new thing. apparently everybody's stressed and spending too much time in busy jobs, and so they want to go on houday jobs, and so they want to go on holiday where they don't have to speak. wouldn't you rather just go speak. wouldn't you rather just 90 by speak. wouldn't you rather just go by yourself than sit in close proximity with human beings? >> well, obviously i would. >> well, obviously i would. >> well, obviously i would. >> well, what was it? yeah. you're the only person i know that would be into this. >> yeah, well, this is just like me at home every day. just not not speaking. rory stewart goes on them, obviously. oh, no, he just goes on general meditation ones, though. >> you spend any time with alastair campbell, you're going to want to just sit on your own. yeah. think about your life choices . choices. >> have you not thought about going on these quests? >> no. i've got a friend who went on some kind of silent meditation thing and not on the verge of doing a misogynist joke. >> i'm just not going to do it. go and do it. i was gonna say. i was gonna say women should go to silent retreats. that's bad, isn't it? is terrible. even by my standards. we can just enjoy. >> we can enjoy the benefit of the silent. >> good thing i did somebody, somebody say that there was a there was a medical contraption, in the, in the victorian era
2:50 am
that women had to sit in for like , four hours a day. let's like, four hours a day. let's bnng like, four hours a day. let's bring that back . bring that back. >> apparently the doctors all knew it was just nonsense, but the husbands loved it because, oh, i bet your wife. >> i bet she's got a really quiet life at home. but you never speak. >> no, no, she definitely wears the trousers. anyway. moving on. a sun journalist tracked down the world's loneliest man. and it's not. it's not you, nick. >> it's not. i mean, i think it still is, because this guy's got bears. i don't even have the bears. i don't even have the bears. world's loneliest man living in —70 degrees. siberian forest, five hours away from nearest humans, with only bears for neighbours. and he has to walk five hours a day to reach civilisation. sounds like my dad's childhood. he was always telling me. oh, i walked miles to school. anyways, a guy called samuel, he lives in the siberian forest. as we've talked about amongst only bears. he prays to god and jesus to get food. >> is that a new site that you know i said only. >> only bears. yeah yeah yeah yeah. and he's on there. that's how he makes his money. he should just learn to code, yeah. i feel bad for this guy.
2:51 am
should just learn to code, yeah. i feel bad for this guy . he's on i feel bad for this guy. he's on his own. his life's almost as lonely as mine. but like i say, he's got the bears, he's got the snow. and it seems like a cool quy- >> yeah, i'm not into it. i think it looks horrific. all that hard. >> you lived in a boat? yeah. i know this is more human. this is more like rational human bears would have protected you against violent criminals in london. >> you didn't have a toilet, and you used to make a nest in a tesco bag and do your business in there and then lob it. >> terrible fence. you didn't tell me that . tell me that. >> obviously that is not what happens on a narrowboat . it's happens on a narrowboat. it's not as bad that's on the whiteboard. it's not as good as that, no, this is this is horrendous. i mean, he's obviously met at least one person, a journalist, and they should have told him about the mainland. why did he go and live there? come, come live here. i would let him . i would give him would let him. i would give him a british passport tomorrow to get him out of this. >> you sound like you sound like a labour politician. >> he makes me feel like a labour politician. >> i won't tell this is the kind of immigration we need. lonely men who live amongst bears. i would welcome this guy. he's obviously got skills. you know.
2:52 am
he stayed alive. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> he can stop bears from eating him. that's. that's going to be useful in about ten years. anyway, the show is nearly over. so let's take another quick look at monday's front pages. the daily mail leads with reeves. i'll rip up rules on planning within days. the mirror has chancellor. i'll make every brit better off. the telegraph has labour to bring back housing targets. the eye has labour heading for new brexit clash with eu on extra migrants. the times has homes on green belt in new dash for growth and the daily star has trinkle. trinkle your winkle. and those were front pages. that's about drinking cold beer in the sunshine. in case you're wondering. well, it's very dangerous. and that's it for tonight's show thanks to cressida and nick. headliners is back tomorrow, 11 pm. i think nick's back on it then. and if you're watching at 5 pm. then stay tuned for breakfast. but for now, it's good night or good morning and god bless. goodbye >> that warm feeling inside from
2:53 am
boxt boilers sponsors of weather on gb news. >> hello there. good evening to you. this is your latest gb news weather forecast provided by the met office. if you did get caught out in the shower earlier on today, i hope you've managed to dry off. things are now settling down as we head throughout the rest of this evening and overnight. actually largely dry for many of us. clear skies across a good chunk of the uk, a few mist and fog patches possible, but really, underneath those starry skies, temperatures will be plummeting down a touch nine 11 c for most of our towns and cities , but of our towns and cities, but rural spots maybe as low as 3 to 5 c, which is quite chilly for the start of july. but it does mean that to start off the new working week, there will be a decent amount of sunshine for many of us. a touch cloudier for the far north of scotland, though, particularly for the outer hebrides up towards the northern isles. a bit of cloud and patchy rain and drizzle around. but for inland areas of scotland, northern ireland and northern england quite a decent start to off monday. we will see some showers developing later on
2:54 am
in the morning and towards the afternoon, though further south, though it's our attention is on this band of rain that slowly pushing its way in from the south—west, providing light rain and drizzle for south west england and eventually southwest wales central areas during the day and the afternoon. but it is going to turn increasingly cloudy, gloomy underneath all of that, some quite brisk winds developing as well around the south—west peninsula, 30 to 35 mile an hour gusts feeling quite chilly and cool underneath that persistent cloud temperatures not rising much higher than 15 to 17 c, but further north, where you do have that sunshine 1920 one degrees celsius. so a feeling, a touch somewhat summery, but make the most of it because that area of low pressure is going to start moving its way northwards, so it will turn more widely unsettled on tuesday and wednesday as we see this band of rain steadily pushing its way northward. some heavy pulses in there, maybe even some rumbles of thunder developing around at times and actually feeling a lot more humid as well. as we start feeding in some air from southern districts, it's the far
