violence has returned to america. donald trump was shot dunng america. donald trump was shot during an attempted assassination at a rally in pennsylvania. here is the moment shots rang through the rally. and trump was quickly yet defiantly pulled off stage by secret service. >> if you want to really see something that said, take a look at what happened over. >> absolutely shocking scenes. it's no exaggeration to say he was centimetres away from death. there trump is now released from hospital and returning home, is said to be doing well in a statement, he said he felt the bullet ripped through his ear. joining me now to bring us up to date on this breaking story. remember, this happened in the early hours, our time 6:00 in america. time is gb news reporter ray addison ray , many

reporter ray addison ray, many of us in this country are waking up to this news. this morning. absolutely shocking. could not believe. still not sinking in that it was another assassination attempt on american president, can you bnng american president, can you bring us up to date on what's happening, please? >> yeah, we know that. >> yeah, we know that. >> i mean, i was woken up this morning by my wife. >> i thought it was some sort of terrible joke. >> when she told me. and then obviously quickly got myself up to date . happened around 11:00 to date. happened around 11:00 uk time, for us last night. so many people not, picking up on that immediately as it happened. we know that he's now safely back at one of his homes. mixed reports on that. some people saying trump tower, other people saying trump tower, other people saying a property in new jersey. i don't think that's strange. i think , you know, after an think, you know, after an assassination attempt like this secret service not going to be giving no clear information on where the former president is. we know that he was struck, we believe once in the right ear, in that dramatic footage that we're seeing there. he we see his hand go up. he grabs his right ear. there's blood there.

and he quickly falls to the ground. that's what obviously he is trained to do in these situations . but then again, as situations. but then again, as the security services, bundle on top of him, he very defiantly rises to his feet . we're told rises to his feet. we're told that he tried then to get to the microphone. he wanted to continue. we've actually seen that in the past from yes , that in the past from yes, another assassination attempt many years ago, that has actually happened. protocols obviously prevent that now, but he wanted to carry on. he raised his fist and he shouted, fight, fight, fight ! his fist and he shouted, fight, fight, fight i and i think and fight, fight! and i think and many other people are saying, this is the moment that he won the 2020. it's a very iconic image with with a huge american flag in the background behind him, isn't it? absolutely. and i think, you know, it shows when you compare and contrast him to president biden, obviously there's been a lot of critique of biden at the moment, in recent times following that debate with donald trump. and i think when you just look at those two men and take their

politics to one side, whatever you might think of their politics when you just look at the strength that was shown by donald trump there and that never die attitude that won't quit attitude, he wants to carry on and the challenges that he's faced in the last year alone, the legal challenges and so forth. and he is nana akua and he just keeps going. >> regardless of what you think of the politics, the fact that he stood up in the face of terrorism. talking of which, what do we know about the shooter? >> so we know he's been identified as a 20 year old man, local man from pennsylvania, thomas matthew crooks . thomas matthew crooks. obviously, we know that he was shot and killed very quickly after firing. i think it was 4 or 5 shots. obviously we'll get clarification on that. he was actually a registered republican. he had registered, i think, in 2021, but apparently we're seeing reports that when he was 17, he made, a small donation to an organisation called actblue. that's a political action committee that raises money for left leaning

and democratic politicians. so certainly conflicted, as you might expect from the type of person who would attempt to assassinate somebody. obviously we're not talking about level headed individuals here. and of course, there has been talk in the past of, voters registering as republicans so that they could try and influence the outcome of the republican nomination process as well. >> and from what we understand, the shooter, this this young man was on a roof not too far away. yeah, and the people in the crowd pointing him out to the security services, there's someone up there. >> yeah, it was believed to be just outside the perimeter of the rally. however, there should still have been secret service officers at every kind of entry point, about 125m away, we're hearing. and certainly one man at least saying that he had told local police that he'd seen somebody with a rifle climbing up onto the roof and then sort of, you know , crawling across of, you know, crawling across that roof into a firing position had spent several minutes, he

said, trying to alert the local police but also waving to secret service agents who were on another roof. obviously we see that sniper that took the fatal shot was on a rooftop , trying to shot was on a rooftop, trying to alert them to the position of the man. now it could be that they didn't see him because of they didn't see him because of the way the roof was configured. he was behind, some kind of concealment, he was behind, some kind of concealment , however, very concealment, however, very deeply concerning, comments coming out of that. we know that the oversight committee in the us congress has summoned the secret service director saying that americans demand answers. and this is just going to be, this is going to be an extremely serious investigation. and trump's secret service detail will no doubt be be beefed up. >> many , many questions to be >> many, many questions to be answered. still. and we do know there is one casualty apart from there is one casualty apart from the shooter has been shot. someone lost their life here as well. so obviously a just a bystander, an innocent bystander. >> yeah, there's been one fatality, two other injuries at least we know donald trump's been tweeting in the last sort of half an hour as well, thanking the secret service for how quickly they responded, but

also saying, you know, his thoughts are with the family of the victim and other people affected. >> great. ray addison, thank you very much for joining >> great. ray addison, thank you very much forjoining us throughout the program, bringing us up to date on, as i said, that that breaking story that, developments as and when we get them throughout the program. joining me now is chair of republicans overseas, greg swenson. hello greg. thank you very much for joining swenson. hello greg. thank you very much forjoining us, greg, just just tell us what reaction you've had to the events that have happened. overnight. >> yeah, it was really shocking. l, >> yeah, it was really shocking. i, i'm in chicago right now. i'm heading up to the to the convention in milwaukee in a few hours, but i landed at o'hare airport here in chicago yesterday, right around the time that it happened. so my phone was just lighting up, and my wife called me right away and filled me in from from london. but, it was really shocking. fortunately, you know, it all has worked out for president trump. in other words, the first impulse when i heard was that he was assassinated. and so, he was

lucky. it was amazing that he didn't, you know, that he turned he turned toward the right side of the crowd, his right. and, and that's what saved his life by by turning he, you know, it would have gone into right into his head, if not so. yeah shock, obviously, but, but some relief and some real sadness for the person that died and the people that have been injured, this is not a great moment for america, but. but we're, president trump really showed. well, you know, he he's strong. he didn't want to be carried out by the secret service . he stood up. he wanted service. he stood up. he wanted to, you know, reassure the crowd that he was okay. and i think the crowd responded really well. he also didn't want to go to the hospital last night, which is, you know, just another testament to his strength. >> and people are remarking that the, the, the image you see now on our screens is one is going to be the image that wins donald trump the next election, which is coming up in november, what

does this actually mean for american politics though, greg. >> well, i hope the optimistic hope that i have is that it dials down some of the anger a little bit. you know, this this is and, you know, i granted there's anger on both sides, but it's particularly, destructive on the left where, you know, even cnn reported last night their first impulse was to say secret service took trump off the stage because he fell down. i mean, you know, there's got to be more honesty and more tolerance as nigel farage pointed out today, on your station, you know, there has to be tolerance of people who disagree. there's nothing wrong with disagreeing, but don't hate the people who vote for your opponent. it'sjust the people who vote for your opponent. it's just not healthy for the for the country. so hopefully this was a low point and things will get better from here. >> greg, i don't i don't subscribe to victim shaming, but some are pointing out that the rhetoric that donald trump and joe biden, by the way , have both joe biden, by the way, have both used in the past is developing this very volatile atmosphere in

american politics. >> yeah. i mean, look, i know i'm partisan and i'm a bit biased here, but i would argue that, you know, surely the rhetoric on the left, the trump derangement syndrome is, is really is really painful. and, you know, look at what he's gone through. two impeachments, indictments. they took his money. they arrested him. they you know, they mug shotted him. they and now he's been shot. now i'm not suggesting at all that that that there's any conspiracy there. but look at what he's gone through, most of which has come from the from the biden administration and the part the democrat party . and he's still democrat party. and he's still standing. and it's really great to see he's he's really demonstrated his strength. so i agree with you. this might have really locked up the election. i think he was going to win anyway. he's up five points in pennsylvania, which is a state that biden has to win. and so, you know, i think it was looking really good. but yeah, this that iconic image of him with the american flag in the background, might just lock it up for him, >> and greg, i mean, just briefly are running out of time. and i appreciate your time. obviously, on a very busy day

for you. you know, there are more guns. there are more guns in america than there are people at the moment. in america than there are people at the moment . what we've seen at the moment. what we've seen overnight and witnessed with this attempted assassination, is it a product of the way the american political system is with this iconic figure at the head of either party? or is it the fact that everybody has access to guns? >> well, not everybody has access, don. and actually, most gun owners never commit crimes. 99.9% of gun owners don't ever do anything wrong. i think the problem is there are plenty of gun restrictions on the books. there are definitely more now than there were, say, ten years ago or or a generation ago. but they're not being enforced. and so here in chicago, if someone's arrested for a gun crime, they're released, right away. they don't serve any jail time. there's no cash bail required. and these this is a town where guns are illegal. and so most all criminals in chicago that commit crimes with guns own those guns illegally. >> and just finally , greg, i

>> and just finally, greg, i appreciate your time, there are people saying that, you know, those of us that were around when jfk was shot always remember where they were when that happened. do you think what's happened to donald trump will have that sort of lasting effect? >> i think so, and i thought one of the highlights last night was robert f kennedy jr appeared on several stations. i saw him on fox and he was really he was really powerful in the way he described both the loss of his father and his uncle and to this date, to at this moment, the biden administration has still not approved secret service protection for rfk jr. i think that's that's absolutely criminal. >> okay. greg swenson, thank you very much for joining >> okay. greg swenson, thank you very much forjoining us, bringing us up to date on developments in america. thank you very much, now let's see what matthew stadlen, who has joined me now on our panel, make of developments overnight . of developments overnight. matthew, i'm sure, like, you know, most people are politically engaged . you woke up politically engaged. you woke up this morning and thought , what? this morning and thought, what? it's an incredible story.

obviously thoughts as we keep saying, go out to an innocent bystander has lost his life simply for being at a political rally. there are still two people around who we believe are critical. and. but what? this is another assassination attempt on another assassination attempt on an american president. >> yeah. i was actually out with friends in south london and got back into my car. >> didn't drink, and turned on the radio and heard this news unfolding. >> and of course, it was deeply shocking. >> i think the first thing to say is that whatever politics you may subscribe to, whether you're british, american or from anywhere else in the world, it's extremely important that this attempt on former president trump's life is unequivocally condemned. >> there's no place for political violence in democracy , political violence in democracy, and i think that's actually something that should be salutary for us here when there's been violence against politicians in britain before on whatever side i and i hope many, many others have called it out

unequivocally. >> it doesn't matter what you think of donald trump, and i don't think he's a good guy. i certainly don't think he's a hero, and i abhor his politics. but the attempt on his life was absolutely outrageous. >> a very big but after that isn't it? you can disagree with people politically all you like . people politically all you like. it's all about the debate, not the hate. and there are some saying that the rhetoric, the political rhetoric on on both sides in america, and indeed we're starting to see it in this country, i believe, encouraged by social media. >> and i spend some time on social media and you can see it. and actually, on a day like today, a site like x, formerly twitter is more of a dump, more of a swamp, more of a hellhole than it normally is. conspiracies abounding on both sides, i suspect . hatred, the sides, i suspect. hatred, the people clearly on the sort of far left are unhappy. i suspect that this assassin wasn't

successful. people on the far right and the right, that somebody hasn't lost their life. >> well , somebody hasn't lost their life. >> well, someone has lost their life. i'm unhappy that trump didn't leave people on the far right and the hard right using it for their ends. >> just come back to this point. the way we run our countries in britain, in an america. and by the way, i think we have a particularly robust and strong democracy here. i thought that the way that the conservative government, a government that i've been for critical of years, handed over power with great dignity to labour. yes, i think in the last week or so was extremely impressive. the speeches we saw from sunak down, including the former chancellor jeremy hunt, penny mordaunt, others i thought was extremely impressive and very important. i think there are some lessons there for america, but nonetheless america is itself a robust democracy and there can be no place for physical violence or indeed abuse. i mean, i just take my own experience of being in the thick of things politically, in the

media, online, offline, in tv studios. i robustly hold those i disagree with, including former president trump, to account, but i don't use abusive language . i don't use abusive language. and i think if we want to root out or do our best to root out physical violence and political violence that manifests itself in the horrific way that it did yesterday, then, as you've said, and as has been discussed already on the show today, i think people who use abusive language and hateful language, they just need to stop that, because there may well be links between the two. >> and we did see, i mean , we've >> and we did see, i mean, we've already in this in this country. god bless them . lost our, jo cox god bless them. lost our, jo cox and david amess , both very, very and david amess, both very, very good politicians. who lost their lives to a terrorist attack in a similar way that this was an attempted attack. and i'm using terrorists because although he wasn't a recognised terrorist organisation, it was someone who was trying to terrorise a political figure. so we've we've

lost two politicians already and some of the behaviour during the recent general election campaign certainly aimed at female candidates . certainly aimed at female candidates. thinking of jess jess phillips in the midlands , jess phillips in the midlands, it does seem to be getting more and more volatile . and more volatile. >> well, and there's just no excuse for it. and i think that the level of hatred that you see, the divisiveness, the toxicity that you see on social media just crosses lines, not just daily or hourly, but by the minute. and every single person who participates in that is responsible for their actions. i think people don't realise that onune think people don't realise that online is real life , and that online is real life, and that there can be a real threat of spill—over into offline living from what happens on our smartphones that we have here. people don't understand that properly or a lot of people don't understand the impact that can have. but to just reiterate, donald trump, i think, has

represented a low level threat to the way that the democracy works in america. i felt that the language that he used in the immediate build up to the assault on the capital, the sort of democratic shrine of the united states on january the 6th of 2021, was absolutely appalling. and that's what i mean when i say abhor his politics. but does that mean that i don't utterly and completely condemn the attempt on his life of course not. i totally condemn it. and i call on people on the left. given that we're now talking about a right wing former american president, i call on people on the left, everyone to make that completely clear. there is no place for it and should be utterly, unequivocally condemned . utterly, unequivocally condemned. >> and alleluia! tonight. i think we would all agree with that. matthew. thank you very much. matthew is staying with us throughout the program and we will bring you up to date on this breaking story concerning the attempted assassination of donald trump overnight. now, for all the best analysis and opinion on that story and much more , please go to our website

way. >> welcome back to gb news sunday with me dawn neesom on your tv, online and on digital radio. thank you very much for joining us this afternoon . and joining us this afternoon. and us president joe biden has said everyone must condemn the attack on his predecessor , predecessor on his predecessor, predecessor donald trump, at a campaign rally in pennsylvania. the former president was grazed on his ear by a bullet and is said to be recovering, whilst the uk prime minister, keir starmer , prime minister, keir starmer, has said i'm appalled at the shocking scenes at president trump's rally and we send him and his family, our best wishes. political violence in any form has no place in our societies and my thoughts are with the victims of the attack. joining me now in the studio is katherine forster, our gb news political correspondent , to political correspondent, to bnng political correspondent, to bring us more on the political reaction in this country to the attempted assassination of donald trump. >> yes. well universal condemnation and horror, of course , and shock. so we've had

course, and shock. so we've had a the new foreign secretary, david lammy, saying the uk government condemns all forms of political violence in the strongest terms . rishi sunak, of strongest terms. rishi sunak, of course, prime minister, until a week and a half ago and said that he's horrified by the attack in pennsylvania, and nigel farage also has been speaking about political violence. of course, drinks and things have been thrown over him , things have been thrown over him, he says as recently as last week. and he says, i find it astonishing, frankly, that more mps aren't attacked. he was talking about the fact that you can literally walk out of, westminster and straight onto the tube as so many mps do. and of course, you know, we've had the horrific attacks and tragic deaths of sir david amess not very long ago of jo cox, the labour mp whose sister is now an mp. absolutely horrific. okay, we haven't had the gun violence

because we don't have we've got much tighter gun control, obviously, but it really is a miracle , isn't it, that donald miracle, isn't it, that donald trump survived that and boris johnson, of course, another former prime minister, there's a lot of them around at the moment, isn't there? has said that it moment, isn't there? has said thatitis moment, isn't there? has said that it is a miracle that donald trump escaped an attempted assassination and just one more comment and somebody abroad, but obviously world leaders have all been making their feelings known. but i did think what, french president emmanuel macron said was quite striking. he described it as a tragedy for our democracies. trump wasn't killed, but you know, somebody was somebody's family has been pred was somebody's family has been ripped apart. other people critically injured simply by going for a political rally . going for a political rally. exactly, exactly. >> so, i mean, there were children behind trump. >> yes. yeah. yes. and there'll be many people there who were not hit, but who will be

massively traumatised now for a very, very long time. >> and going back to nigel farage and the milkshake incident, i remember discussing it at the time and it's like, yeah, oh, it's just a milkshake. why? but one day it's a milkshake, the next it's acid. i mean, you know, our, our politicians are incredibly vulnerable. do you think what has happened to trump? i know it's a completely different political system in america , political system in america, obviously with that iconic head figure, but do you think security will now have to be tightened up for uk politicians as well? >> well, there's been talk of that for a long time. i'm not convinced that what's happened in america is going to directly impact, security, arrange what we saw in the general election and the run up. >> and the people like the way people like people like jess phillips were treated. >> well, there's been a i mean, there's been a lot of concern. and for a long time and i know that the speaker, sir lindsay hoyle has has said, you know, it's his his biggest fear is something happening to mps. and as you say , during the general as you say, during the general election campaign, labour mp jess phillips in particular, very much so, was subject to

horrendous abuse even as she was trying to give her acceptance speech. and if i can just sorry, matthew's come here before and just say quickly, i was on the campaign trail, obviously a lot, both with the conservatives and laboun both with the conservatives and labour. i was on the labour battle bus, the branded one, about three weeks ago with sir keir starmer in, i think it was stoke on trent and some pro—palestine protesters had seen that bus coming in. by the time we came out. sir keir starmer came out later, but by the time the journalist came out of that visit, there was a dozen or so pro—palestine men, working age men, one with a palestine branded car with flags, and they were all shouting at us. i mean, they thought we were members of they thought we were members of the labour party, but it was very intimidating. your child murderers. i mean, it was nasty. it's just. and it was very, very intimidating. and you can see why the security around the

location of the then prime minister, sir keir starmer, was very tight and with labour in particular, because a lot of their mps are getting a very, very hard time over the situation. >> matthew , just quickly, sorry, >> matthew, just quickly, sorry, just very quickly, i was out campaigning with a friend in my local area and we were joined by a sitting mp because the person i was with was a candidate, not an mp. >> and she i mean, she wasn't an mp at that second because it was dunng mp at that second because it was during the campaign, but she had a security guard, which i think was provided by the home office. we have slipped into a situation now where we have to take political violence extremely seriously, and i'm sure we'll have time to talk about this later. we are astonished with what happened in america that the secret service weren't able to act more quickly than they did. >> we are coming back to that particular element of it with a security expert as well, to explain exactly what went wrong and answers to questions that very much need to be asked. i'm dawn neesom this is gb news sunday. lots more coming up on today's show. and of course there is other stuff going on. all eyes are on gareth

ahead of tonight's euro final. the aa says roads in and around london will be incredibly busy, and hundreds of trains are being cancelled. the traffic is also coupled with the wimbledon men's final. that's tennis match going on, but you want to better off watching this, joining me now is travel expert simon calder to explain . simon, why is the explain. simon, why is the country grinding to a halt because of a football match? hello, simon. >> hi, dawn. >> hi, dawn. >> nice to talk to you, do you want to start on the road or the rail? because we've got , plenty rail? because we've got, plenty of chaos on both of them. >> which is the most chaotic, i'd say. >> probably the trains, actually. >> let's go with the trains. >> let's go with the trains. >> right, >> right, >> right across great britain, >> right across great britain, >> here's what's happening. >> here's what's happening. >> an awful lot of rail staff do not have sundays in their normal working week. >> they are effectively employed on, historic agreements that go back sometimes centuries . and back sometimes centuries. and that sunday is not a working day. and we've been kind of making do for many, many years

with people working overtime , with people working overtime, they opt to work on their day off. well, if there's a big football match, many of them, hard working women and men are going to say, no, actually, i don't want to work. thanks very much. as a football match on, i'm going to stay in and watch it. and as a result, we have seen, as you say, hundreds of trains cancelled, probably the worst . is in northwest england worst. is in northwest england on northern trains, where they've actually put out a do not travel notice on six lines, mainly in and out of manchester, victoria and manchester piccadilly in the southwest of england and south wales on the gwr, the great western line, linking london paddington with places like cardiff, swansea, bristol , exeter, plymouth. the bristol, exeter, plymouth. the advice is do not travel after 6 pm. on some lines , including pm. on some lines, including london to bristol, they say we might not be able to even manage

a train every two hours. instead of what you would expect, which is a half hourly service. and to add to that, well, the various other problems on lner, which links london with yorkshire, north—east england and southern scotland , i'm currently up to 22 scotland, i'm currently up to 22 cancelled intercity trains. others of them have been curtailed. so, for instance, you might have an aberdeen to london train, which doesn't actually start until edinburgh and on the trains dawn , which are running. trains dawn, which are running. guess what? there's twice the normal number of people there. what's called full and standing, and they're having to make extra stops in to order help people who've been had their trains cancelled. and so everything is slowing down. and it's not much out there. >> it's not much point trying to drive by the sound of it either, >> no. and the main problem there is actually the m25. and,

you might remember that, we're on now on the third closure of part of the m25. this is between junction ten and junction 11. southwest of london. now, i was there when the very first closure of this 10.5 mile stretch took place, it's got a ten mile diversion, and we were expecting absolute gridlock. it didn't happen, the fear is that several things are going to converge. wimbledon, as you say. people wanting to get places for tonight's euro 2024 final and also the sense that, oh, well , also the sense that, oh, well, we kind of got away with it last time. so, people who live in the local area thinking, well, we'll give it a go rather than as national highways asked them last time, stay home and, and redecorate the bathroom or something. so yeah , it's looking something. so yeah, it's looking pretty messy. if there's one little bit of hope, i'm talking to you from rijeka airport in

croatia, we're not seeing the same level of delays, disruption and cancellations on flights across europe, as we saw , last across europe, as we saw, last week and the week before . week and the week before. currently, you might, you know, if you get a half hour delay. well, you're doing pretty well, but we're not seeing, industrial levels of flight cancellations yet yet. >> simon calder, thank you very much. the voice of doom. but you do it so beautifully that we'll forgive you. thank you very much. safe travels, i'm dawn neesom. this is gb news sunday. there's lots more coming up on today's show, but before we ask the all important question, how many pints in the country going to consume tonight ahead of the euros finals? i'll tell you if you tell me yours. all of that and much

digital radio. now we are keeping you up to date with the breaking news from america of the attempted assassination on donald trump throughout the show. so please do keep tuned for any updates we have on that. but there is other stuff happening. evidently a little football game going on, and england fans are expected to dnnk england fans are expected to drink the pub's dry today with many of us. i'm including myself in this, eager to start celebrating as soon as the pub doors open. many of them are showing gb news on the screen, so you're allowed to do it. in anticipation of tonight's highly anticipated euros final. well, one person who is likely to see this firsthand is the landlord of the furbank pub in manchester, simon delaney. simon, thank you very much for joining us this afternoon. good to see you, excited for tonight . to see you, excited for tonight. what's going to happen in your pub? >> yeah. >> yeah. >> beyond excitement , right now >> beyond excitement, right now this is the quiet before the storm, we opened at 12:00. >> we've got a few people in at the moment, but, this is nothing like it's going to be in probably the next five, six hours. >> i think the 8:00 kick—off has

made people start a little bit later. don't want to peak too sooi'i. 500“. >> soon. >> it's all about pacing yourself, evidently, says a woman, that's not very good at it at all. so are you doing anything special tonight? is it just going to be on, on on the tellies or you've got parties organised? what's happening? >> it's from 5:00. it's a full on party. we've got djs on, we've got a massive outdoor space. we've, we've, we've been monitoring the weather really, really closely. we've had rain this morning in manchester and it's now saying no more rain. so we've got a great outdoor space, great indoor space. we've got screens all over the place. so it's full on party really at the fir bank. >> excellent , simon. on a >> excellent, simon. on a serious note, obviously this is very good news for the hospitality industry in general. £48 million additional trade for pubs and breweries that england are through to the final. i mean you really do need this help in your industry. don't you? >> it's a massive boost. it really is. and what it's allowed us to do, it's allowed us to showcase the pub, because the, the sad thing of it all is that 80 pubs a month are closing and

i think what this allows us to do is show what the great british pub is all about. just imagine if they carry on closing at the rate the closing now, this time in four years at the next euros to be 4000 less pubs. that's that can't happen. that really can't happen. >> that is frightening. and simon just very quickly, the new government, we have a new government, we have a new government a week and a half old. what's the one thing they could do that would really help your industry out? >> first of all, they need to value the great british pub. and what they need to do is keep keep the rates low. you know, they can extend the rate, the rate relief that they've done, they can bring vat. there's so much more they can do to make our industry thrive and make, make, make the business doable. because that's the problem at the moment. great pubs, busy pubs are closing, and that's the worrying thing . worrying thing. >> brilliant. simon delaney, the fairbank pub in manchester, good luck tonight. have a wonderful time. and thank you, come on england, thank you very much . england, thank you very much. now we have a very. we're running very short of time and charlotte griffiths will join me on the panel. matthew stadlen is

still here, it's a big night tonight. obviously great news for the hospitality industry, isn't it, charlotte? >> yeah , it's great news for >> yeah, it's great news for hospitality. as he said. i think it's so it's such a shame we're losing all these pubs. and there's nothing better than a football for match a pub. and it's a real shame that for nearly 40 years are you going to be helping the industry out tonight? i can't because my husband is obviously going to the pub and, you know, in a marriage it seems like the man always gets to watch the football and the woman has to stay behind with the kids. >> that's not something i subscribe to. matthew >> i wish the hospitality industry all the best. i think it's a really good boost for them and i'm a supporter of pubs. i just hope people drink responsibly and if we lose, no, it's important because drinking goes hand in hand with some bad stuff and if we lose, i hope men behave themselves. but let's hope we're going to win. are we going to win ? i was at the final going to win? i was at the final last time three years ago when we lost on penalties to italy. i think we're going to go one better. >> i'm very optimistic, but i'm a west ham fan. i have to be. i'm dawn neesom as gb news sunday, but let's have a look at what the weather is going to do for the football tonight and for

the rest of your weekend. >> a brighter outlook with boxt solar sponsors of weather on gb news . news. >> hello there! this is your latest gb news weather forecast provided by the met office. some of us so far has been dominated by areas of low pressure, and we've got more of them on the way over the next few days. this one out in the atlantic, is geanng one out in the atlantic, is gearing itself up to arrive for the start of the new working week, and we've still got one out in the north sea that has been providing drizzly outbreaks of rain for parts of northern england, and they'll be continuing on and off a little as we head throughout this evening. and overnight as well. perhaps pepping up for a time around the firth of forth area, edinburgh as well. generally, wales central southern areas of england are much drier tonight. some mist and fog patches around underneath those clear spells and rural temperatures, maybe into single figures. but most of our towns and cities will be holding up in double digits as we kick off monday morning . but we kick off monday morning. but the start of the new working week will be quite misty and murky for the far north—east of

scotland, where we will see quite a bit of cloud drifting its way in on that northerly breeze, with some drizzle in there for a time. generally western areas, the highlands over towards argyll and bute, seeing some hazy sunshine to kick off monday morning here. also some sunny spells for northern ireland and also into northern england as well, where it is going to feel much better on monday compared to the cool conditions we've had throughout the weekend underneath all that cloud. but here is that rain, the area of low pressure arriving in the far southwest for the start of monday. it will be turning heavy with some thundery downpours spreading into southwest england and wales throughout today and as a result, there is a yellow rain warning in force because we could see some localised disruption and flooding in places. so do take care. we do also need to watch out for the potential for some rain to spread its way into the far south—east of england as well, a reversal of fortunes in temperatures on monday , actually temperatures on monday, actually coolest in the southwest underneath that cloud and rain. but northern england, northern ireland, central scotland faring much better 21 or 20 c. that rain will continue to spread its way northwards throughout monday evening and into the overnight period. again, there will be

some heavy pulses, potentially thundery downpours around at times that we do need to watch out for. tuesday looks like a day of sunshine and showers with further low pressure centres, though arriving as we head towards wednesday and thursday. bye bye for now. >> looks like things are heating up boxt boilers sponsors of weather on

news reporter ray addison to bnng news reporter ray addison to bring us up to date on this. as i said, live breaking story developments happening all the time. ray, can you bring us up to speed on indeed the latest developments? >> well, we know that one adult male was killed by one of those bullets from the assassin , bullets from the assassin, attempted assassin and two other men have been critically injured as well. although we don't have details about their injuries. the trump campaign has released or launched a go fund me page, which has raised so far around £313,000 for the victims. oh that's good. and so obviously, i think we can assume that that is just going to rise and rise and rise. and there's talk now . rise. and there's talk now. there's a lot of concern about this political rhetoric that we've seen in recent months, probably longer than that. i think we could say. and the us house speaker, mike johnson, has asked for that kind of rhetoric to be dialled down. we saw that speech from the president as well. that statement that he made where he said there's no room for political violence. he's asked for that to be toned

down as well, although i think a lot of fingers will be pointed at the democrats regarding statements that have been made. this kind of comparison of donald trump to hitler. yeah. this idea that if he's re—elected to the white house, he will kill democracy. you put that kind of thing out there, and, you know, it obviously , and, you know, it obviously, inevitably can be heard by people who are susceptible to that kind of message and just recently, last monday, we saw president biden speaking to donors, and he said that, you know, it was time to take the focus off of the debate. the failed debate that he did with trump and put the bull's eye on trump. >> yes. unfortunate timing for that one. yes. yeah, absolutely. >> and that that kind of that , >> and that that kind of that, that kind of terminology, that kind of work gets people think that, you know, they're being, you know, given signals and messages. obviously, if they have particular problems as well, then they can pick up on that. >> and what do we know about the shooter? >> so we know that he's 20 years old. he's called thomas matthew

crooks, obviously we know that he is now deceased, he's a local man. he was registered republican, but he had also donated very small amount, $15 or something to a democrat organisation as well . so, organisation as well. so, conflicting sort of political views there, we've his father has spoken out and said, you know, he doesn't understand what happened. he's just trying to get his head around it. and obviously, you know, details of this, this man, his life and his political leanings will just be i understand he's very he's only 20 years old, one of the few 20 year olds that didn't actually pick up any social media accounts either. >> right. >> right. >> yeah. i've seen at this stage i think this is very fluid. i've seen video from somebody claiming to be him or somebody perhaps with the with the same name. at this stage, i think, you know, we have to take everything that we see with a kind of like of course, a large pinch of pinch of salt, but we will find out about this individual and we'll find, you know, their life is just going to be torn apart at the moment. everyone is going to be talking to their school friends, their former, you know, sort of

college lecturers, fellow employees and so on. >> and briefly, ray, we don't know whether he held the gun legally. it was an assault rifle, we understand, wasn't it? but we don't know whether it was a legal firearms. i mean, many people in america do have my understanding is it is a rifle. >> i'm not a very knowledgeable gun person, i not having ever shot one myself, but my understanding if it was a rifle rather than an assault rifle , i rather than an assault rifle, i don't know what the status of the legality of that was at this point in time, but obviously we heard those 4 or 5 shots that were fired. >> yeah, a horrific story. thank you very much, ray. and, you know, thoughts with the bystanders lost their lives and hopefully recovery to the people that were injured. thank you very much. ray addison there on the live breaking story of the assassination attempt on donald trump. joining me now to discuss another issue of this hour, this assassination attempt is security specialist will geddes , security specialist will geddes, will, thank you very much for joining us. this afternoon. will many, many questions being asked about the security operation around trump at this rally and

how a shooter was allowed to get let's face it, very, very close . let's face it, very, very close. >> yeah, don, it's a really interesting one. i mean, in terms of obviously the security operation, it wasn't great. and i think anybody could draw that conclusion in. so much as it was a reasonably small area within which the rally was being held. >> and one of the things that any security team should be obviously taking is what we call an overwatch position, which is where they're at an elevated position. >> they can look for any threats that a may be in the crowd, but be could be located at equal elevation. so it could be someone in a nearby building or someone in a nearby building or some sort of structure which would give them a vantage point, especially for someone who might be a sniper . especially for someone who might be a sniper. now, the one thing that the security that the secret service are usually very good at is creating a security bubble around their principal, and particularly someone who's a former president, that would have involved also what we call a captain or a counter—attack team. and this particular group would involve fellow snipers,

would involve fellow snipers, would involve fellow snipers, would involve individuals which were fully armed and very extensively armed to be able to repel and to combat any possible threat . now, the fact is that threat. now, the fact is that we're hearing various reports and that's one of the things that we have to take. as ray was saying, we have to either take with a large pinch of salt , or with a large pinch of salt, or we have to sort of verify a great deal more. is that the individual that the assassin was actually observed going up onto this roof for some time before he actually took the shots against the former president ? against the former president? >> yeah. i mean, we had sort of like, you know, eyewitnesses talking to various tv channels and they pointed out the shooter on the roof. and yet if you if you look at the clips, it does seem that the security detail , seem that the security detail, who had their own rifles on the roof, were surprised when a shot was fired. >> yeah, absolutely . i mean, it >> yeah, absolutely. i mean, it should have been interrogated immediately. again, the secret service will be working with the local pd or police to department ensure that they're working

together to combat any threats. i mean, you would not have a large enough security secret service and security detail to combat everything at a rally. so you will rely on local police and some of the bystanders apparently have gone on record and saying that they alerted , and saying that they alerted, police officers that were near them of this individual and why no action was taken is very questionable. but beyond that, the secret service counter—attack team should have obviously taken the shot well in advance. >> and will many people are asking the question many viewers are asking. the question is like was it necessary to kill the attempted assassin, wouldn't it have been better to try and keep him alive and to interview him to find out what the thought process was behind him attempting to take president trump's life ? trump's life? >> well, yes. it's always a critical decision as to what one should do. obviously, apprehending the individual allows one to garnish a heck of allows one to garnish a heck of a lot more intelligence about what their motivations were. were there any other parties that could potentially be

working with them or alongside them, or they'd be colluding with, but the fact of the matter is that this particular individual, this attempted assassin , was using an automatic assassin, was using an automatic or semi—automatic weapon . i'm or semi—automatic weapon. i'm gauging that. it was semi—automatic, but i would guess that it was either an ar 15 or an or an m16 , for example, 15 or an or an m16, for example, which means that obviously it would have a considerable amount of ammunition, and there were some 6 to 8 shots which were fired before . obviously, one of fired before. obviously, one of the secret service team members, sniped him off the roof. now, in those instances, you have to take that split second decision. do you allow this individual to continue to endanger other parties, or do you try and neutralise the threat as quickly as possible? and i think in many regards, although not ideal, their decision was the best one and will quickly. >> we are running out of time. just one final question for you. watching the scenes just there where the personal guards around trump stood in front of him, bundled around him. i mean, are they literally there to take a bullet for him if necessary? >> absolutely yes. without

question. i mean that that that is their job to be a question. i mean that that that is theirjob to be a human shield to their principle. anybody who is in close protection, whether it be governmental or whether it be in the private sector, they will be responsible, obviously, for protecting their principal by whatever means. what was evident was that, you know , donald trump was that, you know, donald trump had had some training because as soon as the shots rang out and he realised that he had been scuffed from what we understand to his ear, he went to the ground first. so before the secret service could even get to him. but again , they should have him. but again, they should have kept him down. they should have kept him down. they should have kept him down. they should have kept him low, they should have moved him out of the area or off the x, as we would call it, as quickly as possible. so the fact that he actually remained there, there could have been other shooters. so, you know, there's a lot of lessons to be learned, maybe within the secret service as to what their response was. >> and indeed, questions to be answered. thank you very much. will geddes. security expert for joining us, explain the security aspect of what happened overnight in america, now let's see what my panel make of this one. i have charlotte and matthew still with me, charlotte, i'm going to come to

you. i think one of the what's given rise to a lot of the conspiracy theories that are going around online, and that's what happens these days, isn't it? is the fact that the security around trump behaved in a strange way by as will geddes you just pointed out, letting him stand up and sort of like, you know, fight. i mean, why is that happening? >> well, i have to say, i, you know, he said that trump had had training, but he really shouldn't have been insisting on standing up. you can hear in the audio, he says, wait, wait, let me get my shoe or something. and that made it very difficult for them to do their job. i think them to do theirjob. i think because he must know he's supposed to stay down and they should have been able to bundle him in that car within seconds. that's what they're trained to do. so don't forget they're fighting against a very, you know, combative sort of, you know, combative sort of, you know , president trump, former know, president trump, former president trump there, and it was just amazing when he came out and raised his arm. it just shows that he's in a fight or flight situation. trump is fight . flight situation. trump is fight. so they had to deal with him as well. yeah, absolutely . well. yeah, absolutely. >> well what do you make of the security reaction matthew? >> i mean i'm not a security expert, but it seemed to me from

watching the footage and reading what i've read so far, that it was a total shambles. i cannot understand how someone with an assault rifle is able to get up onto a roof within. what was it, 120 odd metres, supposedly, of the president in in his direct line of vision? absolutely astonishing. and it's not a built up area. >> it's a farming area. there's not many houses. >> the witness accounts that i've seen, by the way , gathered i've seen, by the way, gathered by a blind bbc reporter, which is the scoop of that awful day yesterday that a huge credit to him . but if that is to be him. but if that is to be believed, then people on the ground were seeing this man act in such an obviously threatening way to a former president of the united states and the secret service didn't act nearly quickly enough. now that will all be investigated. and who knows exactly what the timeline was. i share some of your concerns as well . the idea that concerns as well. the idea that trump stood up and acted so defiantly. i mean, of course, that says a lot about him. he's a hugely defiant and powerful

individual, someone i don't like at all absolutely abhor his politics, as i've said, but he's got enormous resilience and strength of personality. that's never been in question. but why was he allowed to and indeed, why did he? i mean, he was in shock. so you give you give someone a little scope when they've just been shot in the ear, but there's no doubt that what he did endangered his life and endangered the lives of his security personnel. i'm surprised they didn't bundle him off more quickly than they did. so a lot to look at. but of course, the good news is that he is still alive. the bad news is that someone is dead. and two other people, i think, have been critically injured. >> they have. i mean, it does say something, though, as matthew has alluded to , matthew has alluded to, obviously, you know, when you have i mean, it's we can't get our heads around in this country because we're not so used to guns as americans are. there are more guns in america than there are people, which i still find an astonishing statistic. but it does say something about trump's personality. and this isn't a political point that he he had

that fight, that get up and fight rather than cowering in, in fear. and that is surely a good reaction to, to terrorism because terrorism works by terrorising us. >> well, he would have done better to have allowed himself to be bundled in the car, keep everyone around him safe, and then do a press conference afterwards saying, you know, keep fighting the good fight or whatever political point he wants to make. i mean, it really shows what he's like in a crisis, and i guess he can't change his personality in that split second. but, i mean, it wasn't the right point to make at that moment. and it was i mean, of course, it was an iconic image, but it's also given rise to a bit of conspiracy because some people are saying it's like he knew it was going to happen because who in who in their right minds would say, get up and fight in that moment, i wouldn't be commando crawling into a car. and of course it's not true. i'm sure he of course, he didn't know it was going to happen, but it's given people the opportunity i wouldn't give. >> yeah , i personally wouldn't >> yeah, i personally wouldn't give any airtime to conspiracy theories , as you know, as i've theories, as you know, as i've just said, i'm not a fan of trump , but that that there's no trump, but that that there's no

doubt whatsoever that what we saw was real, of course, but he shouldn't allow conspiracies like that to produce themselves on the internet, unfortunately. >> stupid in the moment. >> stupid in the moment. >> yeah. in the world of social media, everything is a conspiracy theory at the moment. isn't it? now. but for all the best analysis and opinion on that story and much more, please do go to our website, which is gb news.com. i'm dawn neesom and this is gb news sunday. there's lots more coming up on today's show, as we cross the pond to get more reaction on that assassination attempt and we go to wimbledon to join princess catherine. this is gb news, britain's news channel. don't go too far

welcome back to gb news sunday with me. dawn neesom on your tv, onune with me. dawn neesom on your tv, online and digital radio. thank you for joining online and digital radio. thank you forjoining us online and digital radio. thank you for joining us this sunday lunchtime. really appreciate your company. now continuing

with the breaking story about former president donald trump, assassination attempt overnight. and thankfully he has survived . and thankfully he has survived. but obviously there was a bystander who was killed . bystander who was killed. joining me now is spokesperson for republicans overseas, errol mortkowicz. errol thank you very much for joining mortkowicz. errol thank you very much forjoining us, can you much for joining us, can you just give us your reaction to what what has happened to trump and the developments since? >> well, i've said it before, and i'll say it again. some people read history, some people write history. donald trump makes history. and once again, we've seen the teflon don stand up in front of insurmountable odds and show just an immaculate amount of courage and bravery , amount of courage and bravery, and demonstrating to his supporters that he will not allow anything from lawfare to misrepresentation to a bullet to the head, stop him from fighting for his voters and for his party and for the american people who are all, regardless of your politics, behind the president, at least in a human aspect. i

think what has happened here is, is beyond the scope of a pundit to be able to put into words. it's not as though our party can say, oh , great, donald trump say, oh, great, donald trump survived this. we're going to, you know , coast to the election. you know, coast to the election. no. that's awful. what's happened here is , is a complete happened here is, is a complete destruction of the rules based order that we all, as americans and in western civilisation, sort of hold dear. and, and to see donald trump go through this, to go through everything he's gone through what he's been through, politically and legally and now physically. and for him to stand up there and to say , to stand up there and to say, fight, fight, fight and to not back down, that sent a strong message. and now what that has to do with the election is neither here nor there. what it has to do with his character and the kind of man he is and how that was, was put on display. i think that's the real takeaway here. now, i don't want to say that this is going to be something that was good for donald trump, but because he survived and because he survived in such a courageous way, i can't imagine anybody who was

undecided between a man who can't walk up the stairs and read a teleprompter, versus a man who can take a bullet to the head and be more cognisant than our current president. it would be very difficult for me to imagine donald trump taking this, event and having it do anything but help his chances. keepin anything but help his chances. keep in mind, this happened right before the rnc convention. if he had been executed in 4k on television, the whole election would be in chaos. and instead, by the grace of god, he turned his head . and he's still with us his head. and he's still with us here today. so i think from an american perspective, from just a human perspective, it was a it was an immense display of courage and something that we haven't seen since franklin roosevelt and who was who was shot famously and gave a speech. and so i really think that it's , and so i really think that it's, it's a, it's a monumental day, but it's a terrible day for democracy, as i say, errol, i mean, given the, the very volatile way american politics is at the moment on both sides. >> i mean, you know, both parties have made comments that sometimes are, you know, the rhetoric is a bit strong , to say

rhetoric is a bit strong, to say the very least, are you surprised that this has happened? i mean, this is well, you've had four, presidents assassinated in the past, but are you surprised that this attempt on donald trump . attempt on donald trump. >> i'm actually surprised it hasn't happened sooner, considering that president biden said in a closed door meeting to donors, we want to put a bull's eye on donald trump when you when you go into the general rhetoric coming out of the left, they say this man is hitler, this man, if he gets elected, he will destroy the republic. the constitution will be over. your country will effectively collapse into a totalitarian fascist state. now, if you're a young, impressionable, somewhat crazy man who like this person who did this, you might think to yourself, you know what? it's my duty to protect my country, i have to take down hitler and the left for the last eight years has basically said this man is the devil is satan is going to destroy your republic. and so it doesn't surprise me that one of their supporters has continued their supporters has continued the legacy of violence that has

come from the left. keep in mind, in 2017, a crazy man shot four republican congressmen of trump. campaign offices were firebombed. in 2016, the violence in the streets during the riots, antifa riots, all of the riots, antifa riots, all of the actual violence is coming from the left. i don't disagree with your original statement that there's been hard talk from both sides. and yes , donald both sides. and yes, donald trump has said things like lock her up regarding, hillary clinton because we believe she committed crimes, but not a single person in our side. and keep in mind our our guys, our the people who are in the republican party are the ones who have guns. it's not as though there's a bunch of democrats who are pro—gun. so we have all the guns and we don't commit gun violence. these people have a much less proportion of the guns, and they're the ones who are now attempting to murder a political candidate on television . candidate on television. >> i'm sorry to interrupt, just just briefly. we don't know the background of the person who attempted to assassinate donald trump . but we do we do know that trump. but we do we do know that he was a registered republican. >> yeah. you know, that's an

interesting thing. and if i was going to shoot the president, i would probably register with his party to, to create, some sort of, i don't know, internal consternation, some sort of type thing. yes. i mean, obviously anybody i mean, we do in america, you can register for a party all you want and you can go and vote in their primaries. people do this often times to actually sandbag a candidate. so for example, if i disliked hillary clinton so much, i would have joined the democrat party on ballots so i could have voted for bernie sanders in 2016. so the party affiliation isn't set in stone. it's an interesting takeaway, but i don't think that man was a republican based on his behaviour. >> okay, aaron mortkowicz, thank you very much for joining us, bringing us up to date on the donald trump situation in america. now i still have charlotte and matthew with me, let's see what you make of what you've just heard. i mean, i could hear you huffing and puffing to my right there. matthew. i'm just astonished by what that gentleman said. >> the idea that all the violence and all the guns or the use of guns is on the left, and

that this is a great disruption of the rules based order in democratic america, which, by the way, it is. but let us remember what happened on january the sixth in 2021, three and a half years ago, donald trump, in the hours before that insurrection which shamed american democracy , encouraged american democracy, encouraged his supporters, in his words, to fight like hell. now, i'm not saying that he meant it literally , but it can be literally, but it can be interpreted in different ways, figuratively or literally. and he encouraged them to march on the capitol and march on the caphol the capitol and march on the capitol. they did. police officers lost their lives. american democracy was threatened in that moment. so the idea that that gentleman thinks that all the violence is on the left is absolute nonsense. it's dangerous nonsense. it's dangerous nonsense. but i say again, i and everybody else, whether they're on the left or the right of any stripe, any colour, any country, any political colour, they should condemn what happened yesterday, because what happened yesterday, because what happened yesterday was an absolute disgrace and was a threat to democracy. but let's not pretend

that all the violence is on the right to be on the left, to be fair to errol, he did say, you know, donald trump has used some strong language himself in the past, and this is true of politics, not just in america, isn't it, charlotte in this country as well, where we are getting the rhetoric is getting more and more dangerous, >> we saw in our own general election campaign, certainly female candidates were targeted, one one woman had a car , tires one one woman had a car, tires slashed, so, you know, it's the politics is very volatile in both countries at the moment. yeah. >> it makes you think the mp for finchley, who stood down prior, you know, he made the right choice, didn't he ? because we've choice, didn't he? because we've got to the point now where if you have if you feel any risk whatsoever, just step back and step down because actually the threat is very, very real. and violence is out there. and yes, we don't have guns as many guns, but we've got crossbows as we sadly. yeah, of course , kwasi jo sadly. yeah, of course, kwasi jo cox has proved that knives are so dangerous , so yeah, it's i so dangerous, so yeah, it's i have to say, politics has never been more volatile.

>> it's quite terrifying to see the problem we've got here, charlotte, is who's going to want to be a politician. >> yeah. well, then certainly women . yeah. i mean, as you women. yeah. i mean, as you said, about women. yeah. i mean, it's very dangerous to be a woman at the moment in that context. and what you end up getting is kind of slightly mad people wanting to be politics, because who would be crazy enough to put yourself family at that much risk, especially people with families? >> i don't agree that the people have the people have just become elected mps on the left and the right are mad or crazy people. and i have a huge amount. >> brave, i think, is the way i would use courageous and i, and i think that i have a huge amount of respect, whether they're tories, labour, reform for everyone who has stood for office, i think we should take our hats off to them because without them our democracy crumbles. we need good people in politics on both sides of the atlantic. okay thank you very much. i'm dawn neesom. this is gb news sunday. there's plenty more coming up on today's show as princess catherine returns to wimbledon. but first, here's the news with sophia wenzler .

news with sophia wenzler. >> dorn. thank you. i'm sophia wenzler and the gb newsroom with your headlines. at 230, donald trump says it's more important than ever to stand united after being shot and wounded during an attempted assassination at a rally. the attack in pennsylvania left one spectator dead and another two injured. in a statement on truth social, he said he looks forward to speaking from wisconsin this week. the former us president has now returned to his home. video footage shows the moment shots rang out, sparking panic in the crowd as secret service agents swarmed the former president. >> if you want to really see something that said, take a look at what happened. >> the suspected shooter has been killed . the fbi has now

been killed. the fbi has now confirmed the name of the alleged gunman as 20 year old thomas matthew crooks . president thomas matthew crooks. president joe biden responded to the assassination attempt. speaking last night in delaware , biden last night in delaware, biden condemned the attack against his political opponent. >> there's no place in america for this kind of violence. it's sick. it's sick at. the bottom line is that the trump rally was a rally that he should have been able to be conducted peacefully without any problem. but the idea, the idea that there's political violence or violence in america like this is just unheard of. it's just not appropriate. we everybody, everybody must condemn it . everybody must condemn it. >> all eyes are on england tonight as they face spain in the final of the european championships in berlin, ahead of the big game. sir keir starmer has praised england's footballers, saying they've made the country proud in a letter to gareth southgate and the team, the prime minister emphasised their graft and hard work and wish them the very best. those are the latest gb news

would you choose ? would you choose? >> and that incident alone, he came out fighting. he's patriot. >> he's. >> he's. >> and joe biden a little bit earlier talked about a bull's eye, which is very unfortunate timing . timing. >> so we'll be asking that also labour ed miliband is talking about energy. >> he's talking about solar farms . farms. >> so i'm asking is energy safe under labour? i mean, who wants a solar farm next door? and what about food? >> what are we going to actually grow in these fields? >> what are we going to eat? >> what are we going to eat? >> so those are the questions i'm asking. plus i've got an incredible mystery guest. >> i can give you a little clue, >> i can give you a little clue, >> she has created a cartoon series, that came out a couple of weeks ago, >> huge guest, that is on the way. >> and my monologue is about whether, well, who would be a politician under all of this. >> indeed. very good question. and we need good politicians more than ever. thank you very much. nana show is coming up at 3:00, and you don't want to miss a second of it. now, remember, let us know your thoughts on all the stories we're discussing today by visiting gbnews.com/yoursay and join the conversation. even if it's about

welcome back to gb news sunday with me . dawn neesom on your tv, with me. dawn neesom on your tv, onune with me. dawn neesom on your tv, online and on digital radio. thank you so much for joining online and on digital radio. thank you so much forjoining me this sunday afternoon. now, the princess of wales is at wimbledon today for the men's final to watch defending champions carlos aslef alcaraz play champions carlos aslef alcaraz play novak djokovic, this is a very rare appearance for her following her cancer diagnosis, and princess kate will be presenting the winning trophy. lovely pictures of her there with her daughter. joining me now to discuss this is former bbc royal correspondent michael cole. michael, thank you so much

for joining us. looking very forjoining us. looking very dapper as always, michael, it's genuinely lovely to see, catherine and charlotte at wimbledon today. isn't that . wimbledon today. isn't that. >> good afternoon dawn. yes indeedit >> good afternoon dawn. yes indeed it is a great and a glorious day in wimbledon. john mcenroe, the famous former champion there, used the word awesome . he said it's awesome to awesome. he said it's awesome to have her here and it certainly was. she looked beautiful as you just showed in a purple dress, purple and green being the colours of the all england lawn tennis and croquet club. and she was there wearing her badge as patron of the club and with her daughter, nine year old princess charlotte. and she received a tremendous reception when she entered the royal box, everybody stood up to a cheer because obviously they're well aware of what she's been going through andifs what she's been going through and it's useful for us to remember dawn, isn't it? it's

only three and a half months since she disclosed very bravely, disclosed that she has cancer and she's undergoing treatment. and this is only the second time she's been seen in public, the first being at the king's birthday parade, trooping of the colour in june. so great to see her back. she's got a great, game in prospect, mcenroe said. it was a win win , win win said. it was a win win, win win because she was there and it was going to be a great match. and he recalled when he was playing in finals that princess diana had been in the box. and he said when he came onto the court, he couldn't resist sneaking a peek to see that she was there. i think the implication was that he played better or enjoyed the occasion more because of the royal presence, and i think that is true. >> and this was unexpected. i mean, we were given a hint yesterday that she might be turning up. and obviously, you know, she loves her tennis as well as being president of the all england club. but i mean , all england club. but i mean, it's still a bit of a surprise because as you say, she's

undergoing fairly intensive treatment . treatment. >> absolutely. but the whole of the middleton family have always loved tennis, and she's quite a player herself. i think she beats her husband, prince william on that. we could only speculate. of course, we do know that he's going to the england spain game in berlin this evening. one wonders if he'll take his older son, prince george , maybe even prince louis, george, maybe even prince louis, who six. or perhaps he's not allowed to stay up that late. who can say so? a great day, a great sporting day for this country and the royal family playing a prominent part in it, as is only right and proper, over the years, of course , the over the years, of course, the queen was there when virginia wade won in 1977, and of course , wade won in 1977, and of course, over the years, marina princess marina, who'd been duchess of kent, was a very long time serving president of the club and always had a very gracious and always had a very gracious and elegant presence whenever she was there. but nothing quite

like seeing kate today. and i think she'll be on the front pages. or maybe, maybe , maybe pages. or maybe, maybe, maybe harry kane will be on the front page who can say, let's hope there's a triumphant england footballer on there as well at some point? >> thank you very much for joining us. that's former bbc royal correspondent michael cole on princess catherine and little charlotte looking gorgeous. it has to be said, at wimbledon this afternoon . now i still have this afternoon. now i still have matthew stadlen and charlotte griffiths with me on the panel, isn't it nice to talk about some good news? charlotte, you're a tennis fan. yes, i know very little of what i talk, but, i mean, so it's lovely. it's quite heartwarming, isn't it? >> it's really heartwarming. and also, it's the money shot that the nation's been waiting for. there's a picture of kate waving, and she's absolutely beaming. she's full of life and she looks really healthy. and i have to say, her previous appearance at royal ascot, at the trooping of the colour, she looked great and we were all holding our breath to see how she looked as a nation. but i don't think she looked as radiant then as she does

fragile. she looked a bit. i don't want to talk about her weight, but no, of course a little bit. still fragile. yes. whereas today , you see, she's whereas today, you see, she's she feels really sort of blooming and healthy and it's just a great sort of moment of relief, i think, for the nation to see her looking really, truly well. >> it is a feel good factor, isn't it? and let's hope we get another feel good factor tonight. matthew i'm talking the football side of things. williams going out there. do you think he'll take george with him? it'd be nice to see george out there. wouldn't his little england shirt i mean if i was in his position i'd definitely take my son. >> i was at the cricket for jemmy anderson's last ever test match, and took my one and three quarters year old to lord's. he's been to three test matches. wow. he's not even two. but going back to the big news of tonight, by the way, this is the fifth anniversary of england winning the cricket world cup for the first ever time. i went with my dad five years ago and if we could win tonight, i know we always say it's just a football match. it's just a sports game. it would do so much for our country and we need that feel good factor, don't we? >> we've got catherine at wimbledon, so let's hope our,

william and george hopefully will do it for us tonight out in berlin as well. thank you very much. i'm dawn neesom this is gb news sunday. lots more coming up on today's show as we do indeed cross live to berlin to check out the atmosphere ahead of that little football match is coming up tonight. all of that and much more to come. this is gb news britain's news channel. you can grab a beer if you want and see you

fansin they're probably 50,000 england fans in the city. i would imagine, around that, can't see many spanish fans at all. there are designated places, but generally this is like a reverse of the netherlands england game, when there was swarms of the dutch, not so many english, but it's the other way around today. and yeah, it feels like a home game, you know, way back 58 years. it feels something's in the air. but listen, it's going to be a very tense night. i'm sure the rain thankfully , has sure the rain thankfully, has gone away, we've all got a bit wet this morning, but it's, you know, listen, the conditions are good, and it feels like a special night, i think. >> well , southgate knows, >> well, southgate knows, doesn't he, that, you know, this is the chance to make history. >> absolutely. so you said, you know, it's about that fear thing. he said, well, if you're not afraid to lose, you can win the for england have been afraid to lose . and that and that to lose. and that and that manifests itself often with penalties. and, you know, i think mentally england are in exactly the right place, exactly

the right place. and spain having started so . well, i think having started so. well, i think they're going to they've already peaked in my opinion, but they're a great side. we know that. but england are in a good place. they're getting slightly better. they'll control it tonight. great substitutes bench and, fingers crossed we can finish the job. >> all right , chris, finish the job. >> all right, chris, thank you very much. chris will be joining us, throughout the day as well, but there we go, dawn soaking up the atmosphere in the sunshine in berlin. >> we're all set before you go. we're all very excited over here. $64,000 question. possibly literally. do you have a ticket ? literally. do you have a ticket? no >> don't get me started, dawn. don't get me started . don't get me started. >> oh, well, enjoy the game. i'm sure you'll be on someone's shoulders in a bar somewhere, but enjoy the game and we'll catch up with you, hopefully with a victory . jack carson in with a victory. jack carson in berlin there. thank you very much for joining berlin there. thank you very much forjoining us, i'm very, very quickly because we are running out of time. unfortunately, matthew and charlotte are still with me. >> i think that our resilience you're thinking always worries me. >> matthew. >> matthew. >> go on. i think our resilience

in the previous rounds, coming back in the face of extraordinary adversity to get to the final, i hope will stand us in good stead. as i said earlier, i was at the last euros final when we lost heartbreakingly on penalties to the italians. i hope that that we've learned from it as well as our semi—final defeat in the world cup in 2018. so i'm saying we're going to win charlotte one final word. >> win or lose, i think we're going to win two one. >> right okay okay. but i mean yeah cracking shows coming up on gb news as well. so you don't want to go anywhere but first. how's that weather looking for you for tonight and the rest of your weekend. thanks for joining us.see your weekend. thanks for joining us. see you soon. >> looks like things are heating up. boxt boilers sponsors of weather on gb news . weather on gb news. >> hello there. this is your latest gb news, weather forecast provided by the met office. some of us so far has been dominated by areas of low pressure, and we've got more of them on the way over the next few days. this one out in the atlantic is geanng one out in the atlantic is gearing itself up to arrive for the start of the new working week, and we've still got one
