9:03 pm
in my opinion. we're very close to a world war. we have people that don't know how to handle it. they're not respected all over the world. they're laughed at. >> the final child injured in the southport stabbings, has been discharged from hospital and will continue her recovery at home, according to merseyside police. six year old bebe king, nine year old alice dasilva aguiar and seven year old elsie dot stancombe died after a mass stabbing at a taylor swift themed dance class in the seaside town last week. the family of the injured victim, discharged today, expressed gratitude to the royal manchester children's hospital for its support and care during what they called this challenging time. meanwhile, detectives have issued images of 11 more people who may have information following the rioting in merseyside . police rioting in merseyside. police say members of the public contacted the police , naming contacted the police, naming people they recognise from yesterday's separate photo appeal yesterday's separate photo appeal, which included images of 14 other people. merseyside police have now charged 17 individuals, seven of whom have

9:06 pm
mythical 100 far right riots never happened. >> he had police deployed in numbers in the right places, giving reassurance to communities. we were able to demonstrate the criminal justice system working speedily. so yesterday you saw the sentencing of individuals who had been involved in disorder days ago, some of them getting sentences as long as three years. that sent a very powerful message. >> but he completely swerved the underlying concerns about immigration. >> if we have indeed turned a corner and seen an end to the violence, is now the time to engage with the underlying tensions that are in communities over the issue of immigration. >> the first priority is safety and security of our communities. >> i was very keen that we were able to demonstrate that if you're involved in disorder, within days you'll be in the criminal justice system. and some people starting long terms of imprisonment that needs to continue. and so that is my sole
9:07 pm
focus. >> he won't talk about it, will he ? he? >> well, he said a lot of this. >> well, he said a lot of this. >> they will only stop if we smash the criminal gangs who are running this vile trade. >> and now i can reveal exclusively on gb news that he'd better get cracking asap, because gang warfare has broken out across calais among migrants fighting for journeys across the channel. those journeys now cost £15,000. migrants from sudan are literally fighting each other for places last wednesday night, a hangar which homed around 300 migrants was set on fire in the early hours of the morning. they all had to be rescued from the arson attack, which nearly collapsed the hangar and could have to led an immense tragedy. a mass armed brawl had broken out. at the same time, six migrants suffered serious injuries as a result of the blaze . several migrants were blaze. several migrants were stabbed, with many refusing hospital treatment. one nearly died after being stabbed in the back with a machete. sources say. there have also been
9:08 pm
multiple stabbings and brawls in other parts of the city, between rival gangs of sudanese migrants trying to make the journeys . trying to make the journeys. previous murders in the region are now being linked to fighting groups. philippe minieri, who's a security chief in calais , told a security chief in calais, told us here @gbnews. there has been tensions in this area. it is the rivalry between sudanese migrants from the north and the south and a calais prosecution source told us that the violence was to down a rising demand to cross due to the warm weather and a lack of police patrolling the border . he and a lack of police patrolling the border. he said it's open season and that creates huge problems. there's been a real rise in violence and tension in calais as the fight and competition increases . it's competition increases. it's a worrying time. everybody is on edge , it's gang warfare. there's edge, it's gang warfare. there's a massive concern that we will see murders. the situation is appalling and we are truly fearing the worst . the french fearing the worst. the french are policing the olympics and not the beaches. violent thugs
9:09 pm
appear to be in charge and they want to come here, don't they? time for action, prime minister. let's get the thoughts of my panel let's get the thoughts of my panel. okay, so today we are joined by political commentator and consultant suzanne evans, tory peer lord bailey and former labour minister as well. bill rammell suzanne, when's he going to smash these gangs then? >> he's not mentioned it at all, has he? it's quite interesting listening to that clip we've just seen of keir starmer when he was asked about the problems about immigration, and he said its top concern was the safety and security of our communities. well, these are the kind of people that he is letting come over to join our communities in these boats, gb news exclusive . these boats, gb news exclusive. this is really horrendously shocking. we know that these people who are mostly young men of fighting age, we know they're criminals because they're paying criminals because they're paying criminal gangs to get over here in the first place. so they're not the kind of people who are who are going to be pillars of society. i'd suggest, and yet here we have just last night,
9:10 pm
you know, the it supposedly in an anti—protest to the riots that didn't happen last night. we had people holding up signs saying refugees welcome. and these are the kind of people that these nutters, frankly, are talking about, that these nutters, frankly, are talking about , the kind of talking about, the kind of people that they want to let into our country. well, i don't want these people in our country. and keir starmer, if you really care about the safety and security of our people, you won't let them into our country ehhen won't let them into our country either. you'll get a grip and do something about it. >> surely he doesn't want to talk about it at the moment. he doesn't want to talk about immigration either. legal or illegal. but given what our sources in calais are telling us about the state of play over there now, and who is coming across as we speak, he's going to have to do or say something, isn't he? >> it's three things to say. firstly, it's clear that labour have no plan for immigration, legal or illegal. they simply don't. and when they ran the election, there was a suspicion of that . i think that's coming of that. i think that's coming true too. secondly, the gangs in calais , now, they're not even calais, now, they're not even the gangs that he has to address. i said before on this show he needs to address the gangs at the source. he has absolutely no way of doing that unless he has a relationship with those countries. so he
9:11 pm
won't do that. and thirdly, if you want to keep our communities in this country safe, the first thing you do, you have to have a balanced, realistic chat. as a pm, you cannot pick a side if you pick a side or come back to haunt us all. >> do you understand, bill, that people millions of people actually are very concerned that just to take the case of some of the examples that we've been provided with here @gbnews you know, some sudanese gangs, rivals from the north and the south, apparently, you know, perfectly content to take machetes to each other , coming machetes to each other, coming over here and then maybe being scattered around the country under a labour government. >> look, i'm really concerned about migration. this labour government is concerned about migration . but let's have migration. but let's have a reality check. check, guys. labour have been in power for 34 days, 34 days, and we are trying to clear up the mess. we inherited from the last government. we need serious action. we're going to get it. the biggest thing we can do is to reduce the backlog of asylum claims, because that's the biggest pull factor inviting asylum seekers to come to this
9:12 pm
country. we're already staffing up thousand the person returns and enforcement unit, prioritising the processing of claims from safe countries like vietnam and india. and then we'll be able to get people out of the hotels, which i think is the biggest bone of contention for people across the country. £8 million a day. we also need to tackle the gangs upstream. we're going to be doing that as well. but we need to be realistic. it is going to take time. the problem is, bill, i think when we hear people say we're going to tackle the backlog, what people hear is we're going to give all these people asylum and let them loose on the streets. >> we're not going to deport them. we're not going to send them. we're not going to send them home. you look at the figures and were granted asylum last year. what was it, 90,000 were fast tracked through, absolutely shocking. it's all very well talking about tackling the backlog, but we just don't want the backlog tackled. we want the backlog tackled. we want action taken. we want to see people who've got these criminal intent and who came here as criminals deported. and unfortunately, keir starmer said nothing about smashing the ground. the only thing he's done is stop rwanda, which we know
9:13 pm
was a deterrent. i don't think it was not a deterrent. it was because that's why they ended up only one island. only 1% of people would have ended up going there. >> if you've gone thousands of miles across the. >> i was wrong, but at least it was something. he just scrapped it with nothing. >> bill does have a point. they've only been in 34 days. you said bill. that's fair enough, but the point is, they've never expressed a plan and you cannot make it. you cannot. you cannot make that plan up on the fly. that's the first thing. but the most important thing here is don't pick a side. that's what for me, keir starmer has done okay. his comments about far right and the way and the way these riots are playing out. and look, i had a very long chat with some young black boys yesterday and they came to the conclusion that he had picked a side. now, if the rest of the public feel that way, we'll have long term community problems. that's what i'm worried about, bill. >> is it is it far right to worry about a sudanese man with a machete coming across the channel and being given asylum here? >> no, of course it's not. and nobody is saying that you can't
9:14 pm
have concerns about migration and that they cannot be discussed. and we have to address those. but what we faced over the last ten days is a scale of lawless criminality. and violence, and it has been 90% from the far right that has to be resisted and tackled. otherwise, we're in for mob rule and we will lose control of the country. and you have to make that clear. and i think the way in which the government has made it clear from the beginning of this crisis is one of the factors that has led to the significant reductions we've seen in violence yesterday. the government have not dealt with it with enough nuance. >> i spoke to a number of young people. i took a poll. i went and spoke to people. and one of the things they were saying, well, why are things being dealt with differently? they're not. and because there were students , and because there were students, one of them took me all the way back to when, some students attacked cchq conservative campaign hq, and he said that was welcomed by some labour mps. and he and the other student talked about just stop oil and how they were treated slightly differently. so you may even be correct, bill, that the
9:15 pm
government have acted decisively, but the question becomes , why didn't they act becomes, why didn't they act decisively against anybody or support decisive action? well hold on, that's the problem. >> you know who i agree with. when nigel farage said there to two tier policing, one of the people on your benches who came out most strongly was pretty patel, who said, that's not accurate and it's not what the home secretary. >> one thing, one thing, one thing i will say on that is i did actually subsequently interview her about it, and she slightly softened her position on that. but i do think she did say that at the time. you are right about, but also about two tier policing. >> we've seen today a disgusting labour council who incited murder immediately suspended from the labour party and, and then and then arrested. good, good. >> but that but that shouldn't that shouldn't be the example. it should be the norm. we must give the idea that everybody is treated the same and this is it. >> and we've kind of worked ourselves perfectly onto to a couple of things. we're going to talk about later on in the show, actually, because i am going to be talking about whether or not there is two tier policing. we've actually got two quite useful clips side by side. now, the individual who was given
9:16 pm
three years for his role in that, southport, liverpool, riot, whatever you want to call it, it was really it wasn't it. and, and the manchester airport incident and we've got these clips side by side and we've had serious action in one and no real serious action. in fact, the only serious action we've had today is another police officer facing criminal investigation. we're also going to be talking about whether or not we were told the full truth about what really went on last night. i think there was some some odd things, but we'll get into that. but coming up as the pop into that. but coming up as the pop star taylor swift cancels two gigs after two people were arrested in connection with an islamist plot . should we be islamist plot. should we be worried now about similar attacks in the uk? defence expert, former paratrooper andrew fox, he's on shortly, but first as the home secretary lavishes the police with praise despite at least nine arrests, including one for this disgusting notting factory. >> and we need to go that route and get rid of them all. >> was last night really a victory for keir starmer, founder of global conservative coalition. sunil sharma goes head to head with former labour minister shaun simon and it's
9:17 pm
9:18 pm
9:19 pm
9:20 pm
next. welcome back to patrick christys tonight. coming up after police in austria foiled an islamist plot to attack taylor swift concerts in vienna, should we be worried about a similar attack in the uk that they have also released a picture of that individual now, which hopefully we'll bring to you a little bit later on in the show. but first,
9:21 pm
after 100 violent clashes failed to materialise last night, is this a victory for keir starmer? it's time now for the head—to—head . and yes, so the head—to—head. and yes, so the police have hailed last night as a turning point after the 100 anticipated violent clashes failed to materialise. the policing minister, dame diana johnson, lavished praise onto the police and the justice system this morning. >> i think it's worth just paying >> i think it's worth just paying tribute again to the police leaders for making sure that we had the police officers available yesterday, and the other thing that's important to remember is that we are starting to see that swift justice for people who behave in this criminal way on our streets. >> the thugs. >> the thugs. >> okay. and also the top cop, mark rowley, was keen to give himself a pat on the back, wasn't he? >> it was a massive policing operation. i'm really pleased with how it went and we put thousands of officers on the streets and i think the show of force from the police and frankly, the show of show of
9:22 pm
unity from communities together and defeated the challenges that we've seen. >> we'll be talking about some of those communities later on, by the way. but the prime minister also indulged in a bit of self—congratulation this afternoon . afternoon. >> he had police deployed in numbers in the right places, giving reassurance to communities . we were able to communities. we were able to demonstrate the criminal justice system working speedily. so yesterday you saw the sentencing of individuals who had been involved in disorder days ago, some of them getting sentences as long as three years. that sent a very powerful message. >> so tonight i am asking, is this a victory for sir keir starmer going head to head on this? the founder of the global conservative coalition, it's sunil sharma and the former labour minister shaun simon, both of you, thank you very much. great to have you both on the show. so i'll start with you. is this a victory for keir starmer? >> no, not at all. i think the reality is that the, the riots that didn't happen yesterday didn't materialise because maybe they were never actually going to happen. i mean, there is by
9:23 pm
no stretch of the imagination, sir keir starmer yvette cooper this government have helped in any shape or form of stopping riots from happening. if anything , they have completely anything, they have completely misread the whole population . misread the whole population. how what the vast majority of the population feels the frustration and anger that this country feels has been completely misread by themselves. and i think it's another example of how this government just failing to understand that the frustrations that so many people are feeling, these so—called far right riots, is, of course, we sort of the stabbing contributing towards this. but that was never the root cause. i see it as more of a catalyst. of course, we should condemn all the violence that preceded that. and following the stabbing, but by no means was that necessarily the root cause. there is a real frustration within this country . and by within this country. and by being frustrated with the impact of mass migration, by being frustrated with the increase in illegal immigration throughout
9:24 pm
on a yearly basis , on a regular on a yearly basis, on a regular basis, these people are not far right, and it's unfair how they've been labelled and put into that box by this government. >> all right, sean, i'll throw it over to you. is this a victory for keir starmer ? victory for keir starmer? >> no, actually, it's a victory for real britain proper britain. it's a victory for what our country really is. it's a victory for our democracy and our institutions is certainly a great credit to the police and the security services who have handled this whole disgraceful episode really well and with impressive professionalism, and the government has handled it well enough, but they haven't done anything amazing and extraordinary . they've done what extraordinary. they've done what you know, they've done sensible, reasonable things that you would hope that a british government would do. but to talk about the feelings that people have and the government not understanding people's concerns and blah, blah , people's concerns and blah, blah, blah, missing the point, like
9:25 pm
talking about deep frustrations is just making an excuse and apologise . being an apologist apologise. being an apologist for this behaviour, it doesn't matter what they feel or what they wanted , they are criminal, they wanted, they are criminal, hoougan they wanted, they are criminal, hooligan thugs who need to go to prison quickly and whatever they care about, they have no right to do what they did. they need swift justice and they're going to get it. >> okay, so i'll ask you to come back on that because. keir starmer and the police, they are saying that what they did last night was, you know, the thing that stopped these supposed far right riots that we were going to see at 100 different locations, it you seemed a bit sceptical about that. >> yeah. for sure. i mean, i think a lot of the reason they didn't happen is because maybe they were never actually planned to happen. i think the reality is, i think what people are missing out on this is, you know, the coverage on, on across these riots have been really unfair in terms of what happened yesterday. you know, there was ten arrests in croydon, which has been largely ignored. there
9:26 pm
was vile racist abuse yesterday towards largely the jewish community, which has again been ignored. there was a labour councillor who went on a live in front of thousands of people calling to murder people publicly. and i think this is a lot of this has been ignored . lot of this has been ignored. and i think that's really unfair. i think it's an example of what will continue to happen because , yes, of course, we because, yes, of course, we should condemn those violent people who turn these protests violent over the last week or so. but there is a real frustration in this country. you know, a lot of it's been ignored. we saw what happened in leeds three weeks ago. there was little to no coverage on that. we saw what happened in birmingham a few days ago. again, little to no coverage on that. there is a habit in this country which is the priority from a lot of senior authorities like we saw with rotherham, is not to stoke racial tensions rather than to just do their job, to do their job as job, to do theirjob as a government, which is to provide peace, which is to provide a platform for everyone to be able to voice their concerns and speak instead of suppressing them , instead of putting them, instead of putting everyone into this box, which is what sir keir starmer did with
9:27 pm
that far right speech, which is he put everyone into that box. the people that were frustrated with mass migration, the people that were frustrated with everything that's gone in in terms of, illegal immigration in this country, he put them in a box. he he's caused more harm than good in this, in this scenario. >> i'll try to come back to you if we if we have time. but but sean, i'll bring you in. i suppose that's kind of one of the aspects of looking at this from, from last night, which is that, look, we were we were told there might be 100 far right riots, the kind of the ghost of the edl being parachuted in at some random locations around the country. you know, people were sceptical about whether or not that would happen. and i think it's proved that they were quite right to be sceptical about that. it's not to diminish the actual incidents of far right behaviour that we have seen, but if you've got the likes of mark rowley and keir starmer coming out and saying things like this was a great show of force from the community and from the police, and then as we're going to discuss a bit later on, you do see some of the people who were in that crowd and there was the old pro—palestine brigade. i mean, they've been giving police nightmares for the last few
9:28 pm
months. they've been giving labour mps nightmares for the last few months. you see, the anti—fascist group in there. i mean, they're not particularly savoury bunch, are they? and he's done nothing to quell the issues of the millions of people behind the far right who are actually just ordinary people who are quite worried. is that not a concern, sean? >> there aren't millions of people behind the far right and that's and saying that, saying that's and saying that, saying that there are is part of the problem. the truth is it is right that there are people in this country with concerns about immigration, but those what's been happening over the, over the, the, the last week doesn't speak for those people . those speak for those people. those people there are not millions of people there are not millions of people on the streets. there are not even small numbers of thousands of people on the streets. there is a tiny, tiny number of criminal thugs on the street firebombing hotels where people are asleep and they don't speak for anybody. and if they're not the far right, then what are they? and who is the fine sean? >> but sorry, just just to be
9:29 pm
clear, when i said there were millions of people behind the far right, i didn't mean they were supporting the far right. i meant as in, they are the layer behind them. the ordinary people who are very worried. and the latest yougov poll shows that 51% of people show that immigration feel that immigration feel that immigration is the top issue facing the country at the moment, and that has risen significantly in the last few months. and so it's all very well and good, maybe for keir starmer to claim victory. he might be able to do that for last night, but can he really expect to have a victory going forward if he doesn't address their concerns? >> they're completely separate questions. the fact that there is real concern about immigration does not mean that that it's okay to firebomb a mosque or that i was on i was on jubes on gb news, a couple of nights ago and somebody, texted in to say we, those of us who are concerned about immigration, immigration, we tried democracy and it doesn't work. what are we supposed to do? well, the answer is you're supposed to keep arguing in the democracy. you
9:30 pm
don't set fire to people when they're asleep. >> okay? all right. look, both of you, thank you very, very much. that is the founder of the global conservative coalition, sunil sharma, and former labour minister shaun simon. and look, i mean, if a victory really does look as though certainly the case of mark rowley, you know, you're saying, well done for the old community coming out there. and you look at some of the people that were actually involved in that, you know, is that a victory? i don't know, we'll talk about that in more detail later. but coming up yet, keir starmer has followed angela rayner's lead, hasn't he. he's dodged the big immigration question hasn't he. >> is now the time to engage with the underlying tensions that are in communities over the issue of immigration. >> the first priority is safety and security of our communities. >> yeah. is he missing the point? and widdecombe's on shortly. but coming up as the pop shortly. but coming up as the pop star taylor swift cancels two gigs after two people were arrested in connection with an islamist plot. should we be worried about similar attacks in the uk? i mean, she is due back in the uk at some point soon. is
9:31 pm
there something going on here? defence expert and former paratrooper fox gives his expert opinion and it's
9:32 pm
9:33 pm
9:34 pm
next. welcome back to patrick christys tonight on gb news. we've got a lot to talk about tonight. yes labour appeared to be ignoring the root cause of the protests. also i think some potentially quite troubling developments when it comes to the capacity
9:35 pm
now for people to be arrested for quotes and quotes, misleading social media posts, very, very worrying isn't it? but first, taylor swift fans have been left devastated after the pop star was forced to cancel several gigs in vienna after austrian police arrested three people on suspicion of planning an islamist attack at one of the gigs. so the austrian security service yesterday identified one of the suspects. who's on your screens now? if you're watching us on television, he's 19 year old bernard a, who was reportedly planning to attack swift concerts. he's pictured there, if you're listening on radio, we what appears to me, anyway, to be something resembling a machete and then one of those zombie knives. so, yeah. anyway, he was planning on driving into the crowd outside before attacking them with knives and machetes and detonating a suicide bomb. the news has caused alarm in the uk, mainly because taylor swift is set to play because taylor swift is set to play five nights at wembley stadium starting next thursday. the details of the planned attack have drawn chilling comparisons to the attack on the ariana grande concert at
9:36 pm
manchester arena in 2017, which sadly killed 22 people. i'm joined now by the defence expert, former paratrooper and now research fellow at the henry jackson society, andrew fox. andrew thank you very, very much. are we looking here at islamists wanting to attack women and girls because they hate them specifically ? hate them specifically? >> i think it's more the case that they're looking to cause the most terror they can. you know, this is all, this is terrorism has always been about making fear, about making people terrified to leave their homes and trying to achieve some sort of political end by terrorising the population. and it stands to reason that the targets that will make the most impact for their campaign are children. and we've seen that time and time again. we've, you know, we've seen it in manchester. we've seen it in manchester. we've seen it in manchester. we've seen it worldwide. children are an easy target for these psychopaths to try and further their political ends. >> so this is we believe , >> so this is we believe, supposedly some kind of isis
9:37 pm
plot. i mean, it all went a bit quiet publicly about isis for a little while. we were sensitive to get some more lone wolf things. yeah our ice is back at it. are they in europe? >> so islamism and islamic extremism has never really gone away , we've seen a big away, we've seen a big resurgence since the fall of afghanistan, where isis, khorasan, who were the sort of the rogue isis branch in the east of the country, they've claimed responsibility for the attacks in russia that happened attacks in russia that happened a few months ago, we've also seen offshoot offshoot branches in north africa and elements in mali as well. so isis have never really gone away. it's just been relatively low profile , but relatively low profile, but clearly if you've got a scantily clad pop star who attracts an audience of young women and you hate western society, there's probably no better embodiment of everything they hate than a taylor swift concert. so it makes the perfect target for them. >> you know, i, i absolutely, massively feel for everyone
9:38 pm
involved in this. i especially feel for, for taylor swift as well, especially given, you know, previous situations that we weren't we won't dwell on here right now, but you look at this now is it is it possible? is it possible that the isis are looking at her specifically and thinking that that she is like the pin up girl for them to have a terror attack because she's been on this seemingly never ending world tour? she's back in britain as of thursday to do a few nights, i believe it is at wembley. you know , how worried wembley. you know, how worried should should we be here? should people who want to take. it's not just it's not just their daughters, obviously sons or whoever else to go to see taylor swift. how worried should we be? >> i mean, i've even got friends that are going to see taylor swift. you know, i think her, their her appeal is fairly universal, you know, you should always be worried about concerns. these concerns, you should look and keep your wits about you, the manchester bombing proved that that sometimes these people slip through the cracks. however, we do have exceptionally good counter—terrorism police in the uk. our security services have
9:39 pm
foiled numerous attacks that we've never even heard of because they never got far enough to getting close to committing those atrocities, i don't think we should be cowering in terror. i think we should keep a sensible wariness about us, report anything suspicious to the police? better safe than sorry, but otherwise, you know, go and enjoy a great night. and, you know , this is night. and, you know, this is the this is the opposite of letting them win is by going out and enjoying yourself and finding pleasure in taylor swift's show, >> exactly. and as far as you're concerned, you know, former paratrooper , defence expert, all paratrooper, defence expert, all of that stuff, our intelligence when it comes to tackling these islamist psychopaths is as good as anyone else in the world. is it still ? it still? >> yeah, it's top tier. absolutely top tier. i've got friends that work in that space, they've told me of some of the things they keep a track on, some of the things they've kept an eye on, they are a very impressive bunch. and i do have confidence in them. >> how difficult is it, though, to police against the kind of
9:40 pm
lone wolf stuff? so here we've seen a situation where it appears to be a few of them. presumably that means that there's loads more communication, etc. there are a lot of fears though , about that lot of fears though, about that just kind of lone, nutty individual who appears very disillusioned in society. perhaps in bold, dare i say it may be by some of those situations that we see going on in gaza, maybe even some of the situations we've seen going on on the streets in britain, here right now, how how difficult is it to stop those individuals ? it to stop those individuals? >> i think if i were a security manager for one of these events, a lone wolf would be my number one terrorism concern. they're the hardest to stop. there's no network behind them. there's no trail of buying fertiliser to make explosives. there's no coordination with them texting their mates about what they're going to do. they literally go out in a vehicle, you know, with something like a knife sellotaped to their hands to make it harder to take off for them. and they they do what they plan to do. the event organisers will be firmly aware of this , will be firmly aware of this, there will be people, especially in the aftermath of manchester.
9:41 pm
i think security lessons have been learned . people, you know, been learned. people, you know, the police will be on duty. there are patterns of behaviour that you can recognise, you can never be 100% safe, as the ira used to say. we have to be lucky every time, you know, the ira only had to be lucky once, these things do happen , but there are things do happen, but there are reasonable and sensible precautions in place to make sure that chance is minimised. >> yeah, i just think it's so bleak, isn't it? when you look around and you think, you know, you buy a ticket for a concert or you're going to try to go somewhere nice or even if it's somewhere nice or even if it's somewhere like a winter wonderland, you know, it's not a place where. yeah, all right, you might go with your mates, but you will also traditionally tend to, you know, take your kids or your grandchildren or whatever. and that now you walk around those places and you feel as though you've got to have your head on a swivel. really? yeah. andrew, how much of this problem in this issue do you think we've imported, or how much of it is home—grown , much of it is home—grown, >> i think it's a combination of both, because radicalisation, certainly in certain aspects of this, tend to be second and third generation. you know, the
9:42 pm
there are generations of parents who've come here that are deeply grateful for the opportunities the uk has given them, and deeply grateful to be here and enjoy being part of british society. however, there is a minority of recent immigrants who may well be coming here for malign reasons, and it's impossible to quantify. the fact is, it's not happening very often, and that's a good thing, you know , there are a number of you know, there are a number of serious terror attacks that have been committed by recent arrivals is in single figures , arrivals is in single figures, so we can be reassured by that . so we can be reassured by that. >> good stuff. look, thank you very much. great to have you on the show. as defence expert, former paratrooper and is now off the henry jackson society. that's his andrew fox. thank you. now coming up. that's his andrew fox. thank you. now coming up . so more than you. now coming up. so more than 6000 police officers were deployed across the country in preparation for these 100 expected clashes that failed to materialise last night. were we misled and have we been misled since ? actually, on the nature since? actually, on the nature of the marches last night, there's a lot to go out there . i there's a lot to go out there. i tackle that at ten. but next sir keir starmer follows angela
9:43 pm
rayner's lead. he's dodging the immigration issue, isn't he? >> it's now the time to engage with the underlying tensions that are in communities over the issue of immigration. >> the first priority is safety and security of our communities. >> right. okay. our labourjust now deliberately ignoring the root cause of all these protests and a lot of people's concerns, former home office minister and reform's justice spokeswoman, ann widdecombe, is going to be talking about that. and as well, we're going to have a look at whether or not it's really okay. now, should we all be worried? and what looks to be an increase now in arresting people for things they may or may not
9:44 pm
9:45 pm
9:46 pm
welcome back to patrick christys tonight. now coming up, i'm going to be talking to you about whether or not we've been misled over some of the events that led up to last night, whether or not we're being gaslit, the idea that we're being deliberately
9:47 pm
misled to question our own sanity about some of the things that we can see happening on the streets, taking place before our own eyes by our politicians and at times by the police. but first, we do welcome reforms. uk immigration and justice spokesperson anne whitaker and anne look a story landed just before i came on air, which i am going to discuss with you now. and this is, i think , and this is, i think, potentially quite a concerning development that some people are liking to to, the stasi. and i'm going to play a clip now and let's just see what we all make of this. >> i have some breaking news now, and a woman has been arrested by cheshire police in relation to an inaccurate information on social media about the attacker in the southport murders. it's now i absolutely do not want to comment on that specific case for obvious reasons, but an if there is going to be a push by this new government and the police force to start really
9:48 pm
seriously coming after people who post things online that actually may or may not really be that damaging, should we be worried about it ? worried about it? >> i think in this particular instance, and i appreciate we don't comment on the actual case, it's justified. i mean, we do know that the original riots at any rate, flared up because there was inaccurate information circulating on social media about the character of the person who is alleged to have carried out the southport killings, >> and social media were claiming that he was an asylum seeker, etc. he wasn't. he was born in wales, came from a perfectly normal family, and, i don't want any more of that because he's, you know , at the because he's, you know, at the moment, he's not yet convicted, but it was profoundly irresponsible to work people up that way. and so no , normally, i that way. and so no, normally, i don't think you can hold people
9:49 pm
responsible if they in all good faith. publish inaccurate material, but i do think that in this instance, you do need to have a very close look. >> that's kind of the issue. i was i was trying to get at, which is there's a slippery slope argument for this, isn't there? and there's the argument for the for the, for the, for the, for the, for this to actually kick on a bit for and people, you know, to be afraid actually to just say things on twitter in case it's subjectively could be accused of whipping something up or being wrongthink. >> well, i don't think actually there's anything wrong with having to be careful about not stimulating violence and disorder along the lines that we've seen, i don't have a problem with that. i understand why you're worried about a slippery slope, i am much more worried that people can and often are, can be cancelled on social media, merely for
9:50 pm
expressing controversial views, merely for doing that. that, to my mind, is much more worrying than the police taking action about something that sparked what we've seen, you know, it doesn't follow that just because there's been an arrest, that there's been an arrest, that there's anything more is going to happen. but i think they're right to be investigating, i really do. >> yeah. okay. well look, we obviously will wait and see and like, you know, we've both said we don't want to, you know, in any way prejudice that particular case speak in very general terms though about whether or not if there's a push to go after people on social media, could that open up the slippery slope argument? you're perhaps less worried about it. and fair enough then than some others. oh, was this on to another topic though. so? so britain has been rocked by widespread disorder as as we know now, with more than 400 odd arrests have been meted out so far. many protesters they voiced clear concerns about mass immigration, britain's economy, our society, about crime. but for some reason, the government doesn't really seem to want to acknowledge that. >> do you recognise, though ,
9:51 pm
>> do you recognise, though, that that people do have concerns about immigration and those people aren't far right? well look, coming on the streets, throwing missiles at the police, attacking police, attacking hotels like this one. >> i'm here today is not a legitimate grievance. >> is now the time to engage with the underlying tensions that are in communities over the issue of immigration? >> the first priority is safety and security of our communities and security of our communities and our labour, ignoring some of the root causes of a lot of people's concerns here. >> absolutely . and they've done >> absolutely. and they've done nothing about illegal immigration since they took office. they abandoned the rwanda plan. now, whatever you might have thought about the rwanda plan, at least it was a plan of sorts, they put nothing in its place other than an amnesty , you know, and an amnesty, you know, and an amnesty, you know, and an amnesty is simply an encouragement, to come illegally in the future because, you know, eventually you'll benefit from an amnesty. so they've done
9:52 pm
absolutely nothing about it . i absolutely nothing about it. i don't blame people for being worried about it. reform is worried about it. reform is worried about it. i'm worried about it, and i think the government should be worried about it, because from where i'm sitting at, the moment, so far in this labour government, we've had the scrapping of the rwanda plan. >> we've had the announcement of or rumours anyway, of operations scattered to disperse asylum seekers around the country. we've had talk of the procurement of more social housing or low level rental accommodation. we also appear to have had, you know, the, the rush to label a lot of people far right if they're worried about it. the direction of travel here doesn't seem to be consistent with the party that has said that they care about immigration or indeed illegal immigration. >> well, they don't care about illegal immigration in any practical way. at all. and i think you saw there you saw a real dodge on behalf of both the labour leader and prime minister, for heaven's sake, and the deputy leader, you actually saw there a complete
9:53 pm
obfuscation. they weren't willing to say, yes, there are concerns, they want to paint all those concerns as the property would go away. >> and if they did, this is the thing, because some people are saying, well, he doesn't want to pour petrol onto the fire. other people are saying, actually, the fire might stop if you addressed it, >> well, i take the second view, which is that if the government showed that it did understand the concerns and indeed shared the concerns and indeed shared the concerns and indeed shared the concerns of ordinary british voters who were certainly not out on the streets, i think, you know, it would go a very long way . way. >> okay. look, thank you very, very much. that is ann widdecombe there, of course, giving your views on two really important topics, whether or not people now feel as though quotes and quotes, the stasi is coming for them online, but also about starmer addressing or not addressing the root causes of some of the public's concerns here. now, i want to tell you about what i've got coming up in the next hour, because it's two top topics here, actually. now southport rioter a shell called
9:54 pm
derek drummond has been jailed for three years for assaulting a police officer. that's the video of it punching through a riot shield repeatedly. he's been nicked and arrested and charged and sent to prison for three years. but the man who did this, or the man who did this, i should say, are yet to be charged. this is the manchester airport incident. but today's announcement was that a second police officer has now been put under investigation. how is this yet more two tier policing and justice? what is going on there? former detective superintendent and, also as well she's in the met police who's shabnam chaudhry? she's going to be joining us live shortly . but joining us live shortly. but next, after only so—called anti—racist protesters hit the streets on the night that we were promised 100 far right riots, were we misled by the authorities? and when you have a little look in the cold light of day, if some of the things that went on last night, some of the things in places like croydon, some of the things, you know, dotted around the country, have
9:55 pm
we actually been misled about what happened since ? certainly what happened since? certainly when you look at today's front pages, they're all parroting the same narrative, aren't they? i just wonder what is really going on here. so we're going to be talking about all of that and much, much more. well of course all have all of your front pages on top of that as well. and a couple of viral videos for you, including banksy's latest artwork, not surviving for a particularly long time in peckham. who could have guessed ? peckham. who could have guessed? >> that warm feeling inside from boxt boilers sponsors of weather on gb news >> good evening. welcome to your latest gb news weather update brought to you from the met office. the grey weather will unger office. the grey weather will linger across the south first thing tomorrow, but in general it's looking much brighter as we head into friday. that's because a cold front will clear through the country overnight tonight and into tomorrow morning. introducing fresher air. but before then we've still got the milder humid air through the
9:56 pm
rest of this evening and overnight. so quite a close night to come. persistent rain still continuing through this evening across north eastern areas, but that will linger across the south and east until friday morning, making for a fairly grey start here tomorrow morning. temperatures already in the high teens as well, slightly fresher further north for much of northern ireland and scotland. and here there will be plenty of sunshine or more in the way of sunshine compared to today at least. still a few showers, though potentially some heavier ones affecting the northern isles first thing tomorrow. they could push into parts of south of western scotland as well, but it does look like it will remain largely dry across northern ireland, eastern areas of scotland, the south east as well. northeastern england not looking too bad as well as wales and the south—west. plenty of sunshine. first thing, and it's going to be turning much brighter across the southeast towards lunchtime as well once that rain does clear away. so certainly a brighter day to come tomorrow and it will feel fairly warm in the sunshine as well. however,
9:57 pm
across the far north that's where we've got a bit of a breeze and this risk of showers through the day. so here still that fresher feel temperatures in the mid—teens, but further south were towards the mid 20s. so not feeling too bad, especially where the winds remain light. now the change on the way as we head into the weekend, another band of rain arrives across parts of england and wales, bringing outbreaks of rain showers continuing across scotland, but it will brighten up for many areas into the afternoon and again feeling fairly warm in the sunshine too. but it's sunday and monday when the temperatures really start to climb. plenty of sunshine around through these days and temperatures towards the low 30s. >> looks like things are heating up. boxt boilers sponsors of weather on gb

9:59 pm
>> it's 10 pm. on patrick christys tonight. disgusting.
10:00 pm
nothing back and we need to go. >> the roads and get rid of them all. >> a now suspended labour councillor is arrested on suspicion of encouraging murder at last night's protests. radical far left groups the pro—palestine brigade. they were all out in force last night, but the show of force from the police and frankly, the show of show of unity from communities together and defeated the challenges that we've seen. when is he giving a green light for more? and have we been misled about these protests? also >> get back, get back me! come on, get back, get back ! on, get back, get back! >> so, three years in prison for him? no charges for the men involved in this manchester airport incident. but now a second police officer is under investigation. and banksy didn't last long in peckham. come on, guys. >> you .
10:01 pm
>> you. >> you. >> on my panel tonight. it's political commentator and consultant suzanne evans , tory consultant suzanne evans, tory peer lord bailey and ex labour minister bill rammell. oh, and yes, please try to tell me what you think is happening. yes, please try to tell me what you think is happening . here. you think is happening. here. get ready britain, here we go . get ready britain, here we go. are the police and our government trying to pull the wool over our eyes? next . wool over our eyes? next. >> good evening. it's 10:01. wool over our eyes? next. >> good evening. it's10:01. i'm cameron walker here in the gb newsroom. the prime minister has told an emergency cobra meeting tonight that police need to remain on high alert. sir keir starmer thanks the police and wider criminal justice system at his third cobra meeting since violence broke out last week, he
10:02 pm
also said there was no doubt that levels of policing in the right places and swift justice over the past week , including over the past week, including sentencing, have acted as a deterrent to disorder. former president trump has agreed to debate vice president harris on television in a race to the white house. it's been confirmed the republican nominee will debate democratic rival kamala harris on the 10th of september on abc. but trump told a news conference at his home in florida earlier this evening that he wants to add two more debates that month on fox and nbc. the us presidential hopeful also warned of dark times ahead . also warned of dark times ahead. >> we have a lot of bad things coming up. you could end up in a depression of the 1929 variety, which would be a devastating thing . took many years, took thing. took many years, took decades to recover from it , and decades to recover from it, and we're very close to that, and we're very close to that, and we're very close to that, and we're very close to a world war, in my opinion. we're very close to a world war. we have people that don't know how to handle it. they're not respected all over the world. they're laughed

at. >> the final child injured in the southport stabbings, has been discharged from hospital and will continue her recovery at home, according to merseyside police. six year old bebe king, nine year old alice da silva aguilar and seven year old elsie dot stancombe died after a mass stabbing at a taylor swift themed dance class in the seaside town last week. the family of the injured victim , family of the injured victim, discharged today, expressed gratitude to the royal manchester children's hospital for its support and care during what they called this challenging time . meanwhile, challenging time. meanwhile, detectives have issued images of 11 more people who may have information following the rioting in merseyside. the force says members of the public helped them identify individuals from yesterday's separate photo appeal. greater manchester police has issued a similar appeal for information they're asking the to public contact them directly or crime stoppers anonymously, if they recognise any of the people pictured . and any of the people pictured. and any of the people pictured. and a suspended labour councillor has been arrested after footage emerged of him online, which he

10:06 pm
pressure here, don't you? then this morning, out strolls our met police chief, mark rowley. like the cat who got the cream. >> it was a massive policing operation. i'm really pleased with how it went . and we put with how it went. and we put thousands of officers on the street. and i think the show of force from the police and frankly, the show of show of unity from communities together defeated the challenges that we've seen . and it went off very we've seen. and it went off very peacefully last night. a couple of locations , we had some local of locations, we had some local criminals turn out and try and create a bit of anti—social behaviour and we arrested a few of them, but it was a very successful night and the fears of sort of extreme right disorder and were abated . disorder and were abated. >> firstly, we can't call what happened last night counter protests because there was nothing to protest about. was there ? what was it? the ghost of there? what was it? the ghost of there? what was it? the ghost of the edl? was it? there? what was it? the ghost of the edl? was it ? secondly, the the edl? was it? secondly, the country's top cop has just given the green light to people to come out in force on the street and mop up. in my view, we saw very hard left radicals there. that's according to their flag
10:07 pm
that they've got. they were out in brighton. there was a huge pro—palestine presence , the same pro—palestine presence, the same group of people who have been rampaging through towns and cities for months now, causing all sorts of problems. and then there was this . we've got there was this. we've got children and women using those trains just during the summer holidays. >> they are disgusting. nothing that's true. and we need to go that route and get rid of . all. that route and get rid of. all. i just want to say thank you all. i'm going to leave you now. >> and three free, free palestine. free, free palestine . palestine. free, free palestine. >> free, free palestine. thank you. god bless you . you. god bless you. >> that is a now suspended labour councillor who has just been arrested on suspicion of encouraging murder. and there was this as well . there have was this as well. there have been ten arrests in croydon and we're told, look , hey, don't we're told, look, hey, don't worry, that was nothing to do with any riots or protests. that
10:08 pm
was just anti—social behaviour. yeah. all right. so what happened last night appears to have been a massively exaggerated national threat that brought loads of people out onto the streets with these placards everywhere as well. you know, the same placards. you see all the same placards. you see all the time. refugees welcome, all of that. refugees welcome the establishment. media then piles in behind it to make it look like the nation fought off the nazis. and now we've got this going on, haven't we? >> we have some breaking news now and a woman has been arrested by cheshire police in relation to an inaccurate information on social media about the attacker in the southport murders. >> and today, sir keir starmer feels that he can shamelessly ignore people's concerns about immigration and just crack on. >> if we have indeed turned a corner and seen an end to the violence, is now the time to engage with the underlying tensions that are in communities
10:09 pm
over the issue of immigration. >> the first priority is safety and security of our communities. >> i was very. >> the term gaslighting is defined as being to manipulate people using psychological methods into questioning their own sanity or powers of reasoning. i think we might be being gaslit. what about you? let's get the thoughts of my panelis let's get the thoughts of my panel is political consultant suzanne evans, who got tory peer lord bailey. i've also got ex labour minister bill rammell. suzanne, i will start with you on this. are people trying to pull the wool over our eyes about what's really going on in britain here? >> yeah, i think they are. so when i heard this news that they were going to be 100 protests last night, i'm afraid i had much of the same reaction as when i heard that saddam hussein had weapons of mass destruction that could be deployed in 40 minutes in the 1990s, because i just thought, that's rubbish. i simply don't believe this. but as you said, patrick, it caused massive fear. all those poor businesses that had to shutter up their shops, you know, people
10:10 pm
who stayed at home, people who cancelled what they were doing in fear of this potential mass riot, which it's now been revealed, was a complete hoax. and yet we all, i will say on thatis and yet we all, i will say on that is all i will say on that, is that the individual who said that it was a hoax has now rowed back on it. >> a bit. and i do think that there were telegram messages coming out that were because i did see them. but i take your point. i think there was question marks as to how where this fear was being whipped up from and who that might serve. >> the fact is, it didn't happen anyway. and yet now we had all the front pages of the newspapers and the police saying, oh, it didn't happen. and we stopped it. you think, well, it wasn't going to happen anyway. so that is the most ridiculous thing imaginable. so yeah, i think we are having the wool pulled over our eyes and, and what worries me too, is that you saw the protests that did happen. what? everyone seems to be completely missing to me is they were carrying socialist worker placards . so we're worker placards. so we're talking about a hard left communist publication, in my view, that is that is kind of feeding misinformation, you
10:11 pm
know, i think both the far right and the far left are a menace to society and frankly. but frankly, i think one side only gets a free pass . gets a free pass. >> sean, we had quite an astonishing thing, actually, when you think about it. there it is, the met police officer saying coming out top cop coming out and saying thanks to the police and the community for country. well, we've just shown that amongst that community around the country, you had the pro—palestine brigade. you had the anti—fascist law, you had really , really quite far, far really, really quite far, far left radicals in amongst all of that as he picked a side here. what's going on? >> i think there's two things to be said. i think, firstly, to maintain their credibility, the police have to demonstrate where this hundred marches came from, because there must be some serious intelligence there, because if they can find this information, if that's the truth and that should lead them to be able to find some of the organisers. and we as the public would be very interested in that. when i heard the commissioner's comments as well, i did think he must avoid inviting people onto the street, whoever they are, because that can go one of two ways and it's great you can imagine how i'm
10:12 pm
invested in anti—racism. that's a great thing that we showed our real spirit and that we're not a racist country, but be very careful about inviting people on the street because anybody's march can be hijacked. and the other thing, when i saw the pictures released about the people they're looking for, great piece of policing. but again, the group of young people ispoke again, the group of young people i spoke to said, well, why didn't that happen on any of the other marches? yeah, and that's the problem. and i tell you something, as a black person, i can tell you what it feels like to be overpoliced as a community. it generates real angen community. it generates real anger. so they must demonstrate that it's the same rules for everyone. >> okay. do you not think, bill, that there is a tendency, i think, to treat the public like we're a bit thick here? this idea that we were going to get one. i'm not diminishing the fact that we have had far right actions. all right. and i am really not trying to minimise that at all. but what i am saying is, i think the idea that we were going to get 100 almost military precision style edl, you know, things last night, i think a lot of people found that very dubious. we saw what happenedin very dubious. we saw what happened in croydon. we saw what happened in croydon. we saw what happenedin happened in croydon. we saw what happened in a couple of these
10:13 pm
other protests as well. we were oh, told, that's got nothing to do with these protests. that's just anti—social behaviour. now we've got the met coming out and saying everything is fine. the the, the front pages, even on the, the front pages, even on the daily mail and the daily express yesterday coming out and being like, oh, we stood down, we, we, we snarled in the face of the far right. and i thought, hang on a minute, are we being told the full truth here? >> with respect, patrick, i think this is conspiracy theorising gone far too far. the reality is, for day after day for nine days, we saw thousands of violent thugs on the streets throwing bricks at the police, attacking mosques , firebombing attacking mosques, firebombing hotels. that has been happening now. it didn't happen last night. why one, i think it's about clear messaging from the government, the police and the director of public prosecutions that if you engage in this stuff, you are going to be hit and you're going to be dealt with too. i actually think the timing of the very fast justice of the first sentences being handed out, and suddenly these
10:14 pm
people were seeing, oh my god, i might go to prison for three years. i think that had a real impact. and i think as well there's been a splintering amongst these far right groups. it's not command and control. i'll give you one example. tommy robinson, who i think is appalling, had been ramping this up on social media day after day. he didn't yesterday. why? because some of the suggestions came very close to advocating arson, and he wasn't prepared to go that far . and i think there's go that far. and i think there's been a splintering. >> okay. i mean, obviously, tommy robinson is not here, not here to defend himself for all of that. i did think that the way that there was those placards that were all readily available and they are readily available, all of these protests, that doesn't happen overnight, does it? well, it gave the impression to me. right? it gives the impression which i think is false, which is that last night, the entirety of britain took to the streets to say that refugees are welcome here, and that britain spoke what refugees are welcome,
10:15 pm
genuine ones, i think. i think the major issue is that people are not in favour of our borders, and i just feel as though there was a very misleading representation. >> do you know what we've got to be really precise about what we're opposed to the placards you refer to the socialist workers party. i've been fighting the socialist workers party all my political life, but they have a right to protest, right? peacefully and what i learned when i was a government minister engaging in the prevent strategy is the only dividing line in terms of what is acceptable. and what is unacceptable is violence and advocacy of violence. and if you start taking on other groups who are just protesting , it's not sustainable. >> don't you accept, bill, that the kind of person that's going to be happy to carry a socialist worker placard, or i would argue, a palestinian flag in the midst of a massive demonstration, is a certain type of hard left person who should be under just as much scrutiny be underjust as much scrutiny as someone who's carrying a placard that's been printed, opposing scrutiny , yes, but not opposing scrutiny, yes, but not but not legal action unless
10:16 pm
they're engaging in violence . they're engaging in violence. >> look, we are going to have to put a pin in this for now. but coming up, i'll take you through the very first. tomorrow's newspaper front pages. but first, i think this is a really important story. this is southport rioter derek drummond was jailed for three years for assaulting a police officer. but the men, who were at manchester airport, who stand well, are under investigation for this. what we're seeing here, some violence against armed police officers and a second copper now has actually been put under investigation. there's no charges been brought against anyone that we can see in that clip. there is this two tier policing. former detective superintendent shabnam chaudhri gives us her expert opinion and that's next. stay
10:17 pm
10:18 pm
10:19 pm
10:20 pm
welcome back to patrick christys tonight. now very shortly, i'll have all of tomorrow's newspaper front pages for you. but first, i think it's a really important story. it's kind of a story very much of our time, actually, with what's going on at the moment, a second police officer has now been placed under criminal investigation for assault following a violent incident at manchester airport last month, just days after a rioter was given a three year sentence for assaulting a police officer. so here is the violent attack on police committed by derek drummond in southport last week. >> get back, get back me! come on, get back. get back! i'm .
10:21 pm
not. >> fast forward a few days and he's already been sentenced to three years in prison. meanwhile, the investigation into the violent incident at manchester airport last month is still dragging on. the two brothers seen in this footage have since been released on bail with no charges brought as of tonight. this was the police response as they went to arrest the pair afterwards, which has now led to two police officers being criminally investigated after further complaints were made. well, i'm sorry but i think i really do have to ask is this not evidence ? now, before this not evidence? now, before our eyes of two tier policing, we welcome now former met police detective superintendent shabnam chaudhri. shani louk. thank you very much. is that not just quite obvious? two tier policing, two tier policing is myth. >> it was propagated in the early stages by, tommy robinson or the likes of tommy robinson and, many other people picked it
10:22 pm
up like a ball and ran with it. no, it's not two tier policing, patrick. oh, should i should say good evening. actually. sorry sorry. no. if you look at, the offences that we're talking aboutin offences that we're talking about in the last week, violent disorder, the legislation, the evidence required is different. this incident that you're talking about, both incidents, actually, the one where the officers were, violently assaulted. a female officer had her nose broken. and then you saw the second part of the incident where the officer kicked a prone male who had been incapacitated through taser on the floor. it's a very complex investigation. >> can i just ask on that? why is it so complex? and this is the this is the question that actually i think is most people are asking because i'm looking there at footage of this. that's obviously the head stomp and the head kick, the one before that
10:23 pm
of two brothers assaulting police officers. and our home security editor counted 15 punches. one of them got a female police officer, you know, has allegedly had a nose broken. what's so complicated about this ? what's so complicated about this? >> well, if you going on that basis, then when you then see the second clip of the police officer, two isolated clips. but in combination, or kicking the male in the head, do you then think that he should be charged to, well, possibly shot him. >> but this is my point. i am genuinely asking you now, why is it so complicated? why is it because it needs it? >> is a detailed investigation where all lines of inquiry need to be exhausted. okay so these, individuals assaulted the police officers will be further investigated. there was an incident that took place before that individual. now, the other officer who's now subject to investigation, also, is as a
10:24 pm
result of a separate incident, but all combined together. there are a number of inquiries. there's body worn camera to look at. there is public evidence to be looking at. there are witness statements to be taken. they've got to build up a picture of what happened beforehand, what happened during and what happened during and what happened afterwards . the key. happened afterwards. the key. key thing here. >> can i just ask with that guy in southport, do you, do you. are you just saying that you think they were able to do all of that just much quicker? >> what in what in what? southport. >> the guy who's been sentenced within a week to three years in prison for what we saw attacking a police officer, we saw body cam footage they were able to do everything that you said that they need to do at the manchester airport in to order him, but quicker. yeah. >> violent disorder is where three or more people, are either present or not simultaneously, are involved in public order. the evidence required for that is the evidence that you see before your very eyes, because it is a riot situation . it's it is a riot situation. it's
10:25 pm
violent disorder. it's where any person of any reasonable firmness feels in fear of their safety. and actually they don't actually have to be present . the actually have to be present. the difficulty and the complexity of this other investigation is in order to get a conviction, because that's the key word here. there's no point in charging individuals. and then suddenly other witnesses coming forward and saying, well, we saw this, we heard this, we did this. and why didn't you come to us? and then that would end up having the whole matter thrown out. okay. we want all of those individuals convicted, not just charged, and then the whole job thrown out of court. i get that didn't do their job. >> i will be honest. i must say. i'm sorry. maybe this is just me. i don't know. i am still relatively confused about what the what the difference is, but but i do want to just play you this clip. so this was at rochdale police station, okay. and this was in the aftermath of what we saw at manchester airport. all right. now, as we understand it, there have not been any arrests that i've heard of anyway in relation to this situation. and there wasn't a big police response at the time.
10:26 pm
could we just play the clip of it ? it? >> vie de—man that these police officers are not just stripped officers are not just stripped of their job, but they are put on trial, just like we would be if we assaulted any police officers. now, we would end up in the dock now. >> later on there were things thrown at that police station. there was, you know, other threats that appeared to be made anyway when people were saying, you know, when that police officer comes out onto the street, he's just one of us. all of that stuff. why is it, do you think that the police didn't seem to want to respond to that ? seem to want to respond to that? >> well, these i don't know what their , protesting about is this their, protesting about is this to do in relation to the manchester incident? yes. okay. yes yeah. if they're outside protesting. so as long as they're not committing criminal offences, then they have a right to protest. >> they did throw bricks at the police. they threw the this is the thing. they threw stuff at the thing. they threw stuff at the police station. you know, this is this is what people are confused about, right? >> yeah. >> yeah. >> have you seen that evidence? because i haven't and i can't comment on if they have thrown
10:27 pm
bncks comment on if they have thrown bricks at the police station, if they have committed those kinds of criminal acts, then of course they should be arrested, if you're telling me that's what happened, i can't say yes, it did or it didn't. all i'm saying, hypothetically speaking, if those individuals then went to throw bricks at the police station or they committed other offences, or they turned up with weapons or anything like that, then the full force of the law should come down on them. >> and could i just ask you one more thing, because this has been another big thing that's happenedin been another big thing that's happened in the last few days that has confused people. so there was an incident in birmingham that happened on a roundabout, and there was there was i think a lot of people really thought that what this individual, this police officer was saying really did highlight two tier policing. i'm hoping that you might be able to shed some light on it, maybe explain it a little bit. so this is a police officer that was explaining why the police didn't really get involved. an incident on a roundabout where people were pictured with with weapons and driving around in a dangerous manner. >> salaam alaikum . good morning, >> salaam alaikum. good morning, everyone, and thank you to the
10:28 pm
leaders and elders that have afforded me this opportunity to speak to you personally. the police are equipped, we're well trained and we very much will be directly dealing with any of that sort of issue on behalf of everyone that lives in the west midlands. >> that was my apologies. that was a clip that was put out after that and that was actually someone there engaging with the community. there was another clip that come out, which was a guy saying that it's this is the police officer there who was saying, look, we had meetings with community elders a little bit like what that chap was saying. we had meetings with community elders before, and we were told that there wouldn't be any issues, essentially saying we ask them how they wanted to be policed. that's how that's how i took it. is that not a two tier policing situation? chevron okay, there is no such thing as two tier policing in my view. >> however, that is a public perception. what i would say in relation to what you think is two tier policing is police officers, public order officers who are down on the scene make
10:29 pm
operational decisions based on risk assessment and threat. you know, threat assessment . now, know, threat assessment. now, that officer made a decision not to police an event because he took on face value. what those individuals had told him, okay, that's his operational decision. i'm not going to question it because i don't know the detail of it. what i would say is this there were some incidents later on in that evening, if i remember rightly, where there was some form of disorder, and there was also, i think , the, there was also, i think, the, journalist that had their tires attempted to be. yeah. and there was some abuse towards them. what should happen, is the police should have deployed officers there and then immediately, as soon as they were made aware of that particular incident, or they should have made some follow up inquiries in relation to that. i'm not going to comment on the operational decisions by that officer. he needs to be able to justify why he did or didn't take the action that he did. >> all right. okay. well, look, can i just say a big thank you to you and, you know, a few
10:30 pm
difficult topics to deal with all in one go there. but it was great to have you on the show much appreciated. talk to you again. >> i knew you'd ambush me. >> i knew you'd ambush me. >> well, i wasn't trying to ambush you. i just that's the these are the issues, right? i mean, but anyway, there we go. thank you very much. that's police superintendent shaun woodward chowdhury. all the best. right. okay okay. so, next i am going to be bringing you tomorrow's newspaper front pages, am i? yes, and also as well, what happens . here? yes. well, what happens. here? yes. i'm going to reveal all and find out exactly what happened to latest offering as well in
10:31 pm
10:32 pm
10:33 pm
welcome out to patrick christys. tonight i have got the very first look at tomorrow's newspaper front pages . so we newspaper front pages. so we start with the metro taylor terror cops on alert fears ahead of taylor swift's uk return
10:34 pm
after a foiled bomb plot in vienna . so we touched on that vienna. so we touched on that earlier on the app concerning stuff daily express labour man held over call to cut rioters throats, again , we did touch on throats, again, we did touch on this earlier on. a labour councillor has been arrested after allegedly calling for the throats of anti—immigration protesters to be cut, and the daily telegraph now sadiq khan i'm no longer safe as a muslim. the mayor of london triggered by violence as police warned of more disorder at the weekend. i think we might return to that one. it'sjust think we might return to that one. it's just with all the way through to the guardian laws to stop. fake news are not fit for purpose again, says sadiq khan. the london mayor had a busy day, isn't he the london mayor, laws designed to counter misinformation are not fit for purpose. i mean, this does appear to be, you know , more of appear to be, you know, more of appear to be, you know, more of a call. yes, indeed, it is more of a call for online policing. i suppose you could put it that way, couldn't you, let's go to the daily mail. riot thugs
10:35 pm
jailed and shamed on tv as court gets tough . prison terms gets tough. prison terms totalling 32 years have been handed down so far and the i reeves to order ministers to make major savings amid defence cuts. apparently ministers are going to be ordered to come up with ways to make cuts in the coming months as part of rachel reeves budget, the ministry of defence and the department for transport are among the whitehall departments that have already begun cost cutting. so there we go. it's got shaun bailey going. well, go on. i wasn't planning on doing this, but why can't cut the ministry of defence? >> our defence capabilities are weakened. we need to. we need to rebuild them. that that's going to be a tremendous political fight, a real a real humdinger. >> well, i say let's wait until we see what actually happens. every spending review in advance of it. there's lots of briefing and counter briefing. wait until you see what the proposals are testing the waters. >> they should get the taxpayers alliance in to go through everything, and then we'd find some. >> really, they're not unbiased , >> really, they're not unbiased, are they? >> yeah, they'd find cuts. come on. they absolutely spend day
10:36 pm
in, day out exposing waste in the public sector. good. >> i'm, i'm a i'm a former defence minister. right. and i'm clear about well no no no but but there is massive waste in the ministry of defence in terms of procurement. and that's happened under successive governments. yeah. >> okay. look just quickly on this now sadiq khan saying he's no longer safe as a muslim and also saying laws to stop fake news are not fit for purpose, i.e. wanting greater law. >> the first. he's right about the second. >> so you would say that muslims are safe, but we should have tougher laws on twitter . tougher laws on twitter. >> no, it's not just about twitter, it's about al. it's about fake news online. the reason sadiq khan has said that they they they used a! to generate a fake record of him saying , let the palestinian saying, let the palestinian marchers go ahead and ban. right. remember he did not say that. and that caused an awful lot of anger. but it turns out it's also not illegal to do that. somebody i have a private member's bill that i've tabled to address that very thing . to address that very thing. >> okay. >> okay. >> and tackling fake news on social media is not about
10:37 pm
hitting free speech again. it's about tackling, tackling people who advocate violence. and we've got to do that. >> i agree, but my concern would be the at times , what could be be the at times, what could be regarded by people in power as a subtle difference between the fake news and an unfavourable opinion . opinion. >> yeah, it sounds a little bit nonh >> yeah, it sounds a little bit north korea to me, fake news could be interpreted as something that you just don't like. and trying to get legislation going. that makes a distinction i think is going to be very hard. as for sadiq khan saying he doesn't feel safe as a muslim, well, for goodness sake, sadiq khan is one of the safest men in london. you know, he's got personal protection officers, he's got an armoured car, he's driven around in, try living on a drug infested housing estate. >> i'll tell you why he's safe. he shouldn't say that. there's big. well, well integrated, comfortable, prosperous. you know, add to our society muslim communities in london. he shouldn't say that because he alarms them. he's not. that's not right. >> and i think there's an element of truth in that. but it's also the fact that sadiq has taken more hate speech and
10:38 pm
hate accusations against him to virtually any politician in the country. >> i'm not so sure about that. there's a quite a lot, i think nigel farage has had final assaults against him. >> i'm not gonna whiz on. we're going to whiz on because there's another good story here. there's another good story here. there's another good story here. there's another good story here. keir starmer has been urged to rethink a quote, dangerous nhs plan to tackle the surge in children suffering a gender identity crisis , including identity crisis, including controversial puberty blockers on trial. so puberty blockers, which pause physical change to puberty, will actually now be made available to children who enrol in a new trial from as early as january next year. but, i mean, this is this is, i think, really, really controversial, suzanne, if they found a way around the cass report, the cass report appeared to say , if we report appeared to say, if we need more research into this. and so they've basically said, all right, then we'll do the research on kids. >> cass report basically said, suspend this. we don't know that it works. you know, this is a horrible debate in which ideology has long trumped biology. and now ideology is
10:39 pm
trumping medical ethics and patient safety. worse than that, it's the safety of children who are not old enough to give full consent to take part in a medical trial. this is utterly reprehensible. it's got to stop. >> should, should labour ban puberty blockers for kids? >> yes, and we have and i wholly support that. and i think there are real concerns about puberty blockers. >> but what's this then, bill. >> but what's this then, bill. >> this is this is actually what cass recommended because what she said was that there wasn't enough evidence to rule out the risk of safety. so you need you need a medical. well, you need a clinical trial to prove the outcome. and i think that's right. but this this proposal entails a whole host of other things. for example, allows allowing people and facilitating people to, detransition, which i think is a very positive move. >> i think we're going to see a lot of actually. >> yeah, there's a few problems here. >> this puts puberty blockers back on the table, which is not
10:40 pm
what the cass report said . what the cass report said. actually, i think doctors should have a look at it because don't they take a hippocratic oath that says cause no harm? this absolutely causes harm. this money will be far better help spent on mental health support for those young children, young people , young children, and also people, young children, and also as well. the real worry here is the tavistock clinic was stopped for a reason. yeah if this now becomes six new tavistock clinics, then we really have a problem, right? >> but hold on, that's the worry. >> let's focus on the facts. doctor cass has come out today explicitly supporting this because it's a consistent with her recommendations. >> well, i really think puberty blockers. do you know what's going to happen? you'll get a number of young children now who have this sold to them five, ten, 15 years down the line. they'll be making claims against this because it's changed their life irreversibly. >> it's not like taking an aspirin. these drugs seriously affect your fertility and your sexual function. >> irreversible damage . these >> irreversible damage. these are reversible, irreversible damage. >> oh. all right, damage. >> oh. all right , well, well, >> oh. all right, well, well, you know, well, i suppose unfortunately, we're going to have to let this one play out a
10:41 pm
bit, aren't we? and see what happens. but, hopefully, hopefully it's not a disaster. >> let's make kids our guinea pigs. >> i know, i know, but, you know, right now. right. take a look at these extraordinary scenes in london last night. so you'd be forgiven for thinking this was new year's eve or something, right? but no, that was an a group of algerian football fans lighting up the river thames with what turned out to be an illegal display of fireworks and flares to celebrate, get this the 103rd birthday of their football club , birthday of their football club, which is mouloudia club d'alger. the globe theatre had to evacuate a performance of shakespeare's antony and cleopatra after a flare landed in the open air venue. it's not really it's not really funny, is it? but it's a bit excessive for 103rd birthday, don't you think? do you have the big one three years ago? what would they do?
10:42 pm
>> yeah. what would they do if it was just the hundredth? >> you know, there's two things to be said. all joking aside, i can see why the police and the fire service in particular were frowned upon. this because it's just. but it's far nicer than what our football fans used to do through the 80s and the 90s. we used to go to europe and destroy parts of europe with football violence. at least this was pretty to look at. >> that's true. but and look, you know, football fans do celebrate. but i think it was the context as well. after we've had the riot, so many people thought this is linked to the riots. oh absolutely. >> yeah. i mean people were terrified. >> i've been in a sort of in the middle of something like that. i celebrated diwali one year in mumbai, and you would not believe it. you got little kids setting off fireworks on the pavement. women in saris. i thought they were going to go up in smoke. any minute. i actually felt so unsafe. i decided to walk in the road in the traffic rather than be on the on the on the footpath. but at the same time, you know what? it was fab fun. >> i mean, it's interesting the idea that, yeah, the algerian football team gets its celebration on a bridge, i'm not sure. >> in london. yeah. >> in london. yeah. >> in london. yeah. >> in london. yeah it's weird. that's the thing. it's a bit
10:43 pm
weird coming up. coming up. good morning britain is in hot water again. over this balls up and we're going to get. >> can i ask, because we've talked about this a few times in the last few days, like many of our viewers will have done at home. >> yes, we will get stuck into that crowd tonight as great as britain union jack has. but next we've got a few more pages for you. so tuned.
10:44 pm
10:45 pm
welcome back to patrick christys. tonight i have actually just got one front page for you now, so let's rattle through , shall we? it's the through, shall we? it's the mirror and the mirror go with katie price is arrested, bandaged price with officer. and yes, she was arrested. apparently she landed back in the uk . it's quite interesting the uk. it's quite interesting as well, because i've read a report that she was supposedly in turkey. she just had a load of, plastic surgery done, a facelift and everything. and the people that were sharing the pool with her were saying that
10:46 pm
they she ruined their holiday because she had, according to them, scars and cuts like and they were in fact looked a bit infected and she was just swimming in the pool. >> had surgery. >> had surgery. >> well it's insane. >> well it's insane. >> there we go. >> there we go. >> it's katie price. she can't be contained anyway. >> she can't have any more surgery. >> and also , the other big story >> and also, the other big story on the front of the mirror, of course, is machete and bomb plot on taylor swift fans. jihadi teens planned massacre at concert. right. so those are your front pages for tomorrow. as you can tell, i'm obviously joined throughout again by my panel joined throughout again by my panel, but now latest animal themed artwork. all right, that has been stolen from london just hours after it went on display. this is the banksy. so you know, we all know banksy. the artist who pops up when you call him a stencil graffiti artist. whatever. they're probably the most famous one anyway, so he popped up most famous one anyway, so he popped up again . he had some popped up again. he had some artwork. it was stolen from london just hours after it went on display. a couple. you know that was in peckham . stencil of that was in peckham. stencil of a wolf howling towards the sky,
10:47 pm
painted on what appears to be a satellite dish was taken from rye lane in peckham, south—east london. it was the fourth in his new collection of works, which have cropped up at different locations across the capital this week. and do you think that's what banksy would have wanted? you know, getting , wanted? you know, getting, getting i mean, possibly i tell you why. >> because it'll make it even more notorious and it would be worth even more money because they won't be able to story. >> you can't sell it because everyone will get it back nicked. >> if he's got any sense, he'll give him £100 for it. like come on, they hardly look like the world's most sophisticated burglars. you give him £100 and then he'll sell it for 10 million. because it's got a back story. do you know what i find intriguing about this is identity is still secret. >> and yet for stuff like that, he must have a significant number of people working for him. and it never leaks out. yeah, who he is. >> he's making enough money to pay >> he's making enough money to pay for silence. >> well, that may be it. >> well, that may be it. >> pay for silence. >> pay for silence. >> there's a lot of the rumours. i mean, i must admit, you know, l, i mean, i must admit, you know, i, i just like, i like i think i, ijust like, i like i think it's a really good modern day, kind of, like, kind of mystery,
10:48 pm
right? i mean, i get that. i'm not going to say it out here on air. i think some i think there are very strong rumours about exactly who banksy there could be. >> banksy, for all you know, you're not so you would have been the loch ness monster. >> you would not be here now if you were banksy, you'd be on a yacht somewhere, or indeed running a hotel on the border of israel and gaza, which there are strong rumours that that's one of the things that banksy does. but anyway. right. it's time to reveal his greatest president xi union jackass right? okay. suzanne, who is your greatest briton? see, my greatest briton. >> and i've criticised the judges at the supreme court before, but i think they've done a jolly good job this week by throwing out shamima. shamima begum supreme court appeal against revoking her british citizenship. so that's it. now she's exhausted all legal avenues. she is not coming back. >> yeah well you say that but the echr. oh so i spoke to her former lawyer. i spoke to her former lawyer. i spoke to her former lawyer. i spoke to her former lawyer yesterday who said they're going to take it to the echr. >> or i suppose keir starmer could give her a free pass.

well, i hope he does. >> i mean, echr sides with shamima begum, which apparently they might do because they obviously deal with a lot of other european countries, and there have been similar ish, not quite like this similar ish cases there. and those people have come back , and keir starmer have come back, and keir starmer says he won't deviate from the echr will he. so we'd get shamima wouldn't we. yeah. anyway sean who's your guy? >> my greatest britain's jeremy clarkson for his analysis on the riots written in the sun. he brought some great nuance to the debate. i believe it needs some nuance and i think he expressed some of what a lot of people around the country will be feeling. and i really appreciate the way that he tried to bring a bit of nuance to it. he's a really good just just kind of paraphrase what it was that he said. >> he basically said, poshos like him who make a lot of money, thought that brexit was was meant or that thought nobody would vote for it. >> but then when he saw who and why people voted for it, he began to understand slightly. and he says the same thing could be happening about immigration here in london, and we might be comfortable with it. other parts of the country, even parts of
10:50 pm
london, are beginning to question it. he now understands that a communities may be questioning it. right. >> okay. interesting. i mean, it sounds a bit like common sense. >> it was read, it made good reading. >> yeah, he was good, i read it, i thought it was excellent. spot on. i thought. >> so if gordon bell is your greatest britain. >> andy mcdonald, team gb's 51 year old olympic skateboarder, he got a cheer yesterday for doing a nollie heelflip. don't ask me what that is. okay that was invented. >> we don't have to ask you, bill, because you can show us right . so we've got right. so we've got a skateboarder here that that was invented before. >> most of the people he was competing against were born. and i think in terms of, you know, as someone of advancing ages to see a 51 year old achieving that absolutely fantastic . absolutely fantastic. >> i agree with you. i saw him interviewed last night, actually, when i get home, what i do is i'll watch today at the olympics and, it's good because you see a load of sports that some of them you didn't even know existed. i'm not sure should exist. but you see, those 51 year old guy, he's competing against, you know, there's apparently there's a female skateboarder who was 11. yeah, yeah, 11 years old. >> one who? one was only 14, i believe it's mad.
10:51 pm
>> absolutely. >> absolutely. >> well, it shows you skateboarding is for young people. so this 51 year old has done really well. very well. >> well done. i mean, i am starting to think maybe i should have gone for him now. but anyway, i went for the judges, i went for the shamima judges. today's greatest britain. i am i am pre—empting, though i must say a bit of echr madness when it comes to shamima begum, which will no doubt give us a lot to debate in the coming years. and who is your union jack, please, suzanne. >> so it's another lawyer, okay. it's a barrister. jessica seymour, a kc no less, for her ridiculous comments on the protests and the riots in which she called for twitter to be closed down, called for it on twitter , ridiculous. you know, twitter, ridiculous. you know, she's an hr lawyer , human rights she's an hr lawyer, human rights lawyer, article 19 of the declaration of human rights for freedom of expression seems to have eluded her as well. so not a good lawyer. there's a little bit of a weird thing. >> i'm not. i'm not including including bell in this, of course, but is a little bit of a trope of people who are on the left are sometimes be actually quite authoritarian. >> oh, very much so. and this is
10:52 pm
what being on the left is all about, isn't it? >> that's authoritarian left wing politics. authoritarian? >> absolutely. think it's equal on the right? yeah yeah. >> something we were agreeing about earlier is that the far left and the far right meet each other around the back , batus other around the back, batus each other. >> yeah. >> yeah. it's >> yeah. it's true »— >> yeah. it's true . >> yeah. it's true. >> yeah. it's true. >> but to call for something to be shut down on that same platform, i mean what. >> yeah i mean look this i do find often with these people where they really let themselves down is having absolutely zero self—awareness. but as they go on union jack, my union jack art is good morning britain for the ed balls yvette cooper interview this morning is to great see a good husband and wife team. >> however, the country needs somebody to hold our home secretary to account. not to have a cosy chat with her husband is a really. it's a really terrible use of air time and actually the home secretary shouldn't put herself in that position . she should be out position. she should be out there answering the tough questions, showing us that she's serious about her job. >> we might be able to remind people a little bit of what we saw, but i think there was a clip that we played a little bit earlier on, actually. but so, i mean, it was ed balls who was interviewing his wife, yvette
