11:04 pm
any pictures of that. >> i'm too smart to go for a run. yeah, i think running is bad. >> yeah, you just eat meat instead. yeah. anyway, let's have a quick look at tomorrow's front pages. the daily telegraph leads with starmer warns iran no attack on israel. you've been warned, iran. the guardian has silent killer heat waves in europe. claim 50,000 lives. the independent has failures at nhs hospital. the left triple killer free. the daily express has get a grip and fast. labour is doing nothing to stop the boats. that's from james cleverly . the that's from james cleverly. the times has zelenskyy takes to war putin, ukraine has invaded russia and finally the daily star has invasion of the angry, drunken german wasps. and those were your front pages . and let's were your front pages. and let's have a closer look at those front pages, starting with tuesday's daily mirror. steve, what have they got? >> they go with health team ignored warning. >> they were told he could kill
11:05 pm
this. the doctor's concerned three years before nottingham. hell is the way they phrased it . hell is the way they phrased it. >> so it talks about the broken mental health system that missed opportunities. >> this is valdo calocane who? >> this is valdo calocane who? >> this is valdo calocane who? >> this expert, this doctor, three years before said he could kill someone and a written warning as well. >> not just like this was done in a chat. >> written warning that he had a condition we could end up killing someone three years before he did exactly that. we need a system that can work with it. what more do you need? what more of a clue do you need than an expert saying something needs to be done about this person and we don't manage it. and the whole rest of the article goes on about, you know, it's a it's a broken system. we need to fix it. i remember in 2017 that election, theresa may was going on about the mental health sector as the cinderella, sector of health. >> she, she it was underfunded. >> she, she it was underfunded. >> oh , right. i mean, it's not >> oh, right. i mean, it's not really how it's a very capitalist way of reading that fairy tale, isn't it? cinderella very much underfunded in that whole. >> that's that's what would have helped, >> but she won that flipping election. why didn't she do something about it? promised it all the way up to it. managed to
11:06 pm
win that one. >> you're blaming. you're blaming her. >> i'm just. i'm blaming the legacy. why are we in this situation now? >> could we could just blame government? because the government? because the government tends to be pretty rubbish at running. running things , whoever. i mean, things, whoever. i mean, whoever's in charge is always the government. >> no, we can't blame the government for everything. that's what makes. i'm not saying us. us. i'm saying it makes me, me . you can't blame makes me, me. you can't blame the government. it's like. it's like the doctor said he could end up killing somebody. you could say that about anybody. what's the song? you know, could. i could have been someone, but so could anyone, of any fairytale of new york that wasn't an official psychiatric diagnosis from a from a medical professional. >> there was a written warning that somebody might . that somebody might. >> but do you know something? first of all, psychiatry is not even a science, okay? it kind of is a branch of medicine. it it doesn't matter what the branch it kind of is. it's like, let's guess, people's personalities and give them some drugs that might make their mood slightly different. number one. number two is the nhs, which is completely rubbish . number completely rubbish. number three, it's the it's the medical society medical world that we live in today. so this is
11:07 pm
horrible that this guy killed somebody. >> well more more than one, person. yeah. i mean there's also a bbc the same time as this revelation comes out, there's a bbc panorama i believe documentary, and that's controversial as well because the families of the victims haven't and they've already been through absolute hell and they haven't been or they certainly feel that they haven't been, you know , kept in the loop and given know, kept in the loop and given full input in this document. >> can i answer that? can i answer that? yeah. go for it. okay. you feel for those people. they've they've lost a loved one, but they have no business telling the press what to report on. but on the other hand, the bbc is not the press. it's state sponsored. propaganda, whatever it is. >> and the thing when it's something like this , they something like this, they certainly have some, some valuable input at a thought they might have. >> it's not just about giving them a chance to edit or anything, it's about making it not a shock. so they don't sit down and watch it with everyone else. twitter does whatever twitter does and it makes their situation worse. they at least should be pre—warned by being able to watch it before release.
11:08 pm
yeah, absolutely. >> well, moving to on the i lewis, what have they got on this? >> well, good news uk planned to evacuate british nationals in in israel if iran triggers war. what about british nationals in iran? don't they deserve to be taken out? what about british nationals everywhere? >> well, but british nationals in britain? yes. i've been thinking . i need to be. in britain? yes. i've been thinking. i need to be. i in britain? yes. i've been thinking . i need to be. i need thinking. i need to be. i need to be evacuated from britain the way things are going. yeah. >> you're not the only one phrase. >> if you're evacuated, that means you've done a big stool. like the building gets evacuated. you don't? >> yeah, well, yeah, maybe that's true, but i did notice humza yousaf the former leader of scotland. i can't believe i'm saying those words, but he was he was the former the william wallace, the modern day robert the bruce. but yeah, the former leader of scotland . and he said leader of scotland. and he said he feels that he's going to have to leave the uk because the way things are going. but the thing is, i don't have anywhere to go like scotland's the only place i don't have a passport for pakistan or gaza or wherever he's got. >> he used to be a way of getting your to passport work in
11:09 pm
the eu. what was that, there was a thing that you could go. oh, that was the thing. yeah, yeah. >> no , no, that's not that's not >> no, no, that's not that's not the same. >> because europe, the whole of europe is spiralling down the same. the same. >> oh, there must be an enclave somewhere. that's all right. how's luxembourg ? how's luxembourg? >> hungary? you know what, leo? you could marry me and we're going to move to nevada. >> yeah, i don't think. i don't think marrying you is going to keep me safe from iran. do you think war is going to kick off between iran? >> and i think it's going to. someone's going to shut those people up, the iranians, and it's going to happen. i mean, israel is an amazing country. they could put the what happened is they put the rocket through a window with like a thousand miles away from israel. the rocket went a thousand miles and went into some guy's window and killed the guy who was supposed to kill . wow. and so and so the to kill. wow. and so and so the iranians are upset. i can understand why they're upset, but remember, they're a cult, too. there's lots of people in iran who don't support the those people very, very similar to this country . this country. >> yeah. and i mean, i assume that keir starmer would call the people in iran who don't support
11:10 pm
the islamic regime. he'd call him islamophobic because you know, that's that's an islamic theocracy. it's, you know, the theocracy. it's, you know, the theocracy of peace. anyway, moving on. what's on the front cover of the express? >> steve, get a grip and fast, which is normally what louis tells people about calorie intake, but this is labour is doing nothing to stop the boats. james cleverly says that sir keir starmer must get a grip on these these channel migrants. do you know he talks a lot of sense in this. it's a shame there wasn't like maybe like five, six weeks ago, a chance that he could have been part of some political party that had a chance to stop the boats for, i don't know, 14 years, something like that. isn't it a shame that they didn't do it? but it's because 703 more arrived in one day. the weather has been great, but 703 is a big number. it makes you think we never should have complained about, the use of lorries. remember what that was? the main news story all the time. wasn't it? migrants were smuggling into the back of a lorry. you wouldn't have got 700 in it, would have lowered the numbers. >> well, the a lot of people came through in lorries, but it
11:11 pm
was very invisible, almost. whereas the, you know, coming across in small boats and not so small boats, i mean some of the boats hold, you know, hundreds of people, it's much more visible and much more sort of telegenic in terms of the drama. >> well, they handle those people who came across in the on the ships and the trucks, the lorries, they handled their own places to go to. they got out and they walked to where they were going, and they met their cousins, and they were suddenly in a job delivering uber, which is which is what happens with a lot of a lot of these people when they arrive. >> they don't wait to be processed and given a travel lodge somewhere. they they immediately run off and join their friends. >> but you can't, you cannot say, i cannot say and you definitely cannot say what i think the government could do , think the government could do, possibly could do to stop this from happening. well, is this because we've seen footage from poland where they've actually been using live rounds to secure the border, which is, i mean, which is we are against and that's why it cannot be suggested. >> well, it can be suggested, but the european union is doing it. and yeah, steve, you're a
11:12 pm
big fan of rejoining europe. is this why do you get bullets if you rejoin. well, this this is something that european countries, the european union, is protecting its border using extreme force. >> who wasn't that long ago that they managed to be an actual ship that was turned round and deposited back in france. so even we know that's possible. so why aren't we just doing more of that? and it's but this story does still have that hypocrisy under it that it's james cleverly saying labour needs to do something about this mess. >> yeah. no. absolutely. but i mean keir starmer surely has to get a grip on this. and i think there's an element of keir starmer not wanting to be seen to do anything to tackle illegal immigration, because then he'll be seen to sort of, you know, be cowering, cowed by the rioters. no bending. >> no, no, no, he's totally wrong. you're totally wrong, i think. right. no, i'm going to tell you why you're wrong. he doesn't, does he not? not being seen or unseen. he totally supports the whole thing. he thinks it's a blessing to the country to for our economy, but also for the country to have the country overwhelmed by foreigners. yeah. no, absolutely. >> i mean, it's a it's a core
11:13 pm
part of labour's ideology. you know , critical race theory. they know, critical race theory. they want to, they think diversity is a strength . multiculturalism is a strength. multiculturalism is only only brings good things to society. yeah. but despite the evidence of our eyes over the last few weeks, but also in that you're forgetting that the amount of migration during the tony blair era, although it went up massively, you didn't go anywhere near the amount that it went up during the tories. yeah, because yeah, the tories weren't that immigration for different reasons. they weren't cheap , reasons. they weren't cheap, unlimited cheap labour for the businesses. and they want, you know , the inflation of fixed know, the inflation of fixed asset prices. so houses they want the prices of houses and rents to go up. so both parties want open borders for different reasons. >> and, and you asked the right question, the right question is where are the tories. the tories are dead . that i told you this are dead. that i told you this this election. but we'll see. >> we'll see where they are in a couple of years when an election is forced. anyway, that's the end of part one. stay us us for nigel elon musk and donald trump is going to
11:14 pm
11:15 pm
11:16 pm
11:17 pm
is he though? welcome back to headliners. we've got the daily meal now and a former intelligence officer says the government is going to exploit the southport riots to persecute their political enemies. steve >> well, what he said tommy robinson and reform mp nigel farage will be scrutinised by the security services amid fears britain's far right riots are being fuelled by the putin regime. former m16 officer claims the daily mail doesn't doesn't mind a long headline, doesn't mind a long headline, does it? the former m16 officer should have said i'm not saying farage is, it's just a valid question. would have been a nice way to do this. christopher steele right, isn't it? so there's so much in this, he said that the way things are looking, they'll be looking at their travel movements, who they've beenin travel movements, who they've been in touch with, monetary transfers and so on. no point checking with natwest. i've saved you some time there, and also travel, you know, unless it's been visiting cathedrals. but what this actually is, is a
11:18 pm
guy who used to work for m16 saying what m15 will be doing. yeah, not even the same thing in the actual interview. says they'll be looking at tommy robinson and nigel farage. maybe. yeah. why not? it's so not. there's no commitment there. but the headline rights here, like they're after farage now, even this guy who is no longer in the job says, yeah, might happen. and they've really written it like it's going to be a bit, you know, less rubles are getting changed. >> so this is really just the speculation of , of an internet speculation of, of an internet fantasist. and we've spent, we've had a couple of weeks of being told we shouldn't have internet fantasists wildly speculating, but i mean, i'm interested some of the language interested some of the language in this, it's sort of assumes that farage incited, incited riots, incited protests, and tommy robinson incited protests, i know for a fact farage did not. i mean, i saw pretty much everything he said. i'm not sure about tommy robinson, but i know that tommy robinson had a couple of protests and they were pretty much completely peaceful. right and i'm not aware of him actually inciting anything. i'm
11:19 pm
pretty sure if he had incited anything, it would have been, you know, front page news blown up. we would have seen the exact words. so this just seems to be a kind of, a kind of dog whistle against them, a sort of smear. >> excuse me . leo, putin is on >> excuse me. leo, putin is on the phone . the phone. >> this is called dead air. >> this is called dead air. >> sorry. okay, try to avoid it. i'm holding. i'm i thought that would be funny. drama. no, i'm just saying . i'm just saying. just saying. i'm just saying. because they did accuse. they did accuse putin of putting his $0.02 in. yeah. and the reason why this is so ridiculous, steve, that is that is the number one is farage actually said, i'm afraid and i feel i feel like i'm a bit afraid because they are saying that they are looking at everybody. they are everything in the next five articles. >> yeah, alistair campbell, alistair campbell, tweeted the metropolitan police, telling them to investigate douglas murray, saying that they'd been interested in investigating douglas murray because douglas murray warned that this chaos
11:20 pm
was going to happen . was going to happen. >> do you know why he warned? >> do you know why he warned? >> and he was correct, that this chaos was chaos. >> alastair campbell's never done anything with misinformation . he's the guy. misinformation. he's the guy. what does he know about it? >> but didn't i say that this country is at war? didn't i say that two years ago? every show, every single time, i'm telling you, it's at war. and i tell you, it's at war. and i tell you, especially with the left, because i, you know, you got to feel for the left. they were looked at in the same way that they're looking at. i guess that's what they're used to being looked at people. yeah, they're they're used to being observed as a, as a communist and someone like i don't know, starmer is a communist. but he went to, he went to , went to, he went to, czechoslovakia during the time when he shouldn't have gone to czechoslovakia with this story. >> let's just remember it is an interview on times radio where someone probably got woken up and like, yeah, whatever . yeah, and like, yeah, whatever. yeah, maybe they're doing it and it's written by the daily mail. like it's definitely happening . it's definitely happening. there's a big jump, but it is definitely happening. >> so it's just more speculation and we shouldn't pay any attention to it. >> and the daily mail should be banned from twitter for it anyway. we've got the telegraph now with nigel farage warning that keir starmer is a brutal authoritarian, just like all the other left wing leaders .
11:21 pm
other left wing leaders. >> louis yeah, he says. starmer greatest threat. this is the telegraph greatest threat to free speech in british history. and you have to believe that he is because he's saying he's got a whole crew of people looking at twitter. he's got a whole crew of people looking at the media and all the different things. and making sure we say the right things, that we don't incite violence . i mean, the incite violence. i mean, the guy, the guy is the i mean, he's bad. he's an absolutely bad. >> what are some of the ways he's going to restrict free speech? >> he's he's going to say he's going to say you can't say anything. you can't say stuff. >> did he come? is that what he said in his begum? >> farage said, you said you cannot say anything that is guaranteed. he said the way he said it was different than this guaranteed to be true. you can always make a mistake. and so if you if you say something that's a mistake, are you suddenly going to be put in jail because, you know, it made people worried or something? >> well, yeah, i think farage is speaking to the fact that there was an information vacuum in the wake of the killings of those, those those girls , absolutely those those girls, absolutely horrific killings that obviously, you know , across the
11:22 pm
obviously, you know, across the nation, everybody was was furious. everybody wanted answers. we still don't know what the motive was. i mean, i'm assuming it's going to come out dunng assuming it's going to come out during the trial process at some point, and we know for a fact that if you know, if it had been a white guy had stabbed, you know, gone into a mosque or something like that, then immediately all the people who are saying don't speculate would have been doing a whole lot of speculation. >> they wouldn't have been speculating because, no, they would have been. they would have they would have been saying this is motivated. no, they would have. >> they absolutely would have been saying, you know, this is motivated by, you know, brexit, far right . whatever, andrew far right. whatever, andrew tate, they would have reeled off the usual list of, of people to blame, if that's about the speculation. >> but they're giving information about the person that's been arrested. there's a legal process, a legal precedent set about not wishing to ruin the trial. that's why the information doesn't come out. and especially when the police would have known that the person they got was 17. you don't give information about the person if they're underage. now, as it turns out, it was like three days underage by the time you got to see a judge, which makes
11:23 pm
sense actually naming him. but i mean, none of that. you can have the debate about how our system works , but at the moment, our works, but at the moment, our system works to preserve information, to get a good conviction in trial. and no one seems to be talking about that in there. just saying it's all about now. i don't i don't agree with what starmer is doing. you know, there is a risk to freedom of speech. but a lot of this information wasn't coming out, so the questions weren't quite as valid because they shouldn't come out. there is no legal obugafion come out. there is no legal obligation to tell the media stuff that's happening. there is an obligation to get a good conviction. >> but moving on to the next story, steve, because this is also about the, you know, starmer's plans to restrict social media, restrict information, and it goes beyond just, you know, making sure that there's a fair, unbiased trial for this one person. it's much more about, the monitoring and regulation of the internet and bringing in, you know, rules around legal but harmful, which doesn't even make any sense. like we can understand what legal is, but harmful that can mean is that a crime? >> is that a horse riding lesson on youtube? >> is that harmful because
11:24 pm
people fall off horses? >> yeah. so this is the times ministers to review social media's role fuelling the riots. number 10 said they'd go after people who played a part in fanning the flames. i'm not in favour of going online and saying, hey, let's do a riot. but i'll tell you what, if i saw a tweet that said, hey, let's meet up at 8:00 and do a riot, i wouldn't because i am responsible for my actions. yeah, and it's like mum used to say, if someone told you to jump off a bridge, would you know, just because someone tweets a bad thing? i don't listen to what all influencers say. although i would be sat here drinking huel. do you know what i mean? so, social media, i mean, look, it played a role in spreading the misinformation because it went viral. the wrong person or a fake person was named. but even if even if they got it right, even if it was someone who just got off a boat and was all about a certain religion, it still doesn't mean you go and set to fire a mosque. yeah, and so that's a personal choice about not committing a crime. >> you're saying, what are you saying? >> well, i was halfway through it, but, louis. >> yeah, i mean, this it was too long. keir starmer seems to be treating the symptoms with this crackdown on what people are allowed to say.
11:25 pm
>> and, you know, restricting twitter and all the rest of it. he's treating the symptoms. the reason that people were speculating wildly, the reason people were angry was because three little girls had been killed and other and other children had been had been attacked. >> we didn't know who it was and what caused it was the fact that that had happened, the fact that that had happened, the fact that that had happened, the fact that that had happened. >> so keir starmer really needs to be looking at making sure and promising that children are going to be safe in britain. and the fact that we've still got hundreds and hundreds and hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of completely unvetted fighting age men from, you know, some pretty violent cultures. yeah just allowed to just stroll into the country. i mean, that is something that worries a lot of people. >> well, that is one answer to the question, which is there are lots of people who are dangerous who are running the streets. >> but the other question is, should we have freedom of speech? should we have freedom of information? i'd like to know what's going on. so i'm not. if this had happened ten years ago, there wouldn't have been riots going on. so it isn't a question of this is a bad thing and that's what caused the riot. this is the people are very
11:26 pm
they're very upset about things. yeah and it's about freedom of speech. and unfortunately the people in power at the labour party, not all the labour people, but they hate freedom of speech because they think that they've got a job to do, which is equity, diversity, inclusion, whatever it is. or, you know, they they feel that that has to be done. and freedom of speech is not one of those things. there's no f in d. yeah >> well the whole thing about, you know, the left want to control everything. they want to control everything. they want to control the economy. they want to control what people think, what people say, what people do, where they go. yeah whereas the right are much more, you know, classically liberal. and that leads to greater prosperity. and it also leads to a happier society. >> so it might not it might not lead to great. no, it doesn't. >> look at america, the greatest country in the world. anyway, moving on. we've got the daily mail now. and the good news is britain's created a lot of jobs. the bad news is they didn't go to british people. lewis. >> yes they did. their british people now in the nigerian nationals. >> no they're not. >> no they're not. >> they're literally the word nationals. >> they're nationals. so they're not british. they're not british. all right. well same
11:27 pm
thing. you know what? i read this article and believe it or not, indian and nigerian nationals fill which can i speak , nationals fill which can i speak, please? just because i interrupt you doesn't mean you've got the right to interrupt. yeah it does. yeah okay, i guess it is. sorry, sorry. you're so smug. >> steve, can you just read out the thing written on the bit of paper it says in the nationals filled more jobs in britain between 2019 and 2023 than uk nationals. >> and this is about a million and a half people who came the jobs. they check the jobs and who's in the job. i don't i don't believe this because, well, let me tell you why. >> people who might believe the official statistics. >> i just made a joke. i have joke. >> and i wish we could find out what the actual story is before you start doing your jokes. >> it's not going to be funny. you're not going to find it funny. he's doing a joke. >> this is amazing. go do it. okay, well, i'll tell i'll tell you what. >> what? it was so, a million and a half new jobs were created over this period. it's over several years, with 1.465 million more. 4.41.465 million
11:28 pm
of those jobs going to people who weren't british and only, you know, a couple of hundred thousand went to people who are british. >> so he made more sense. so basically they created a million and a half jobs and all the jobs went to people who aren't british. >> but what about what about my job? that i'm sitting here? this is a new job for me. it's amazing. so i'm not going to complain about what's going on. yeah, well, i wish we could get one of these people in the joke. >> i wish we could get one of these people in to do your job. these people in to do yourjob. pretend you have time. >> just for the other thing. that's really interesting. the average earnings. >> steve's got a joke. >> steve's got a joke. >> no, it's not a joke. the average earnings of the people in this survey have dropped. so this is finding people to do the cheap job, the cheap labour. the solution should be to pay people more to do these jobs. oh my god, which is the cheap labour argument i made earlier on. we have we have been reliant on cheap labour to make the economy work. and you can have to pay a bit more if you want to cut that tight. >> yes. and steve is right. and this is why the tories were so gung ho about this kind of
11:29 pm
thing, because they europeans, they wanted even more money than these people do. so you're right, you're right. they should stop immigration for the sake of the country. >> sorry, i didn't say that. >> sorry, i didn't say that. >> please. you didn't say it. yes, you did it didn't say that. >> go back to the time. >> go back to the time. >> just when lewis was about to come here and do it. then that's part two coming up. we've a riot. hoaxer jailed,

11:31 pm
11:32 pm
>> philip says. >> philip says. >> welcome back to headliners. we've just been enjoying some of the insults you've been sending to lewis on twitter. do keep them coming in. we've got the sun now and it looks like britain has our very own jussie smollett . smollett. >> lewis, it's smollett, smollett , smollett. what story smollett, smollett. what story are we doing? >> of course it's number. >> of course it's number. >> 1010. >> 1010. >> number 10. i don't know, how do we get to that part? oh, this is riot idiot who faked being chased by gang of far right thugs on live stream for tiktok,
11:33 pm
is jailed. and this is a guy who comes from romania. his name is dimitri stoica. stoica and then lots of romanians. i know a lot of good romanians. i don't know elizabeth. >> this, this. >> this, this. >> i'm getting to it. is it that important? >> yes. >> yes. >> we've only got like two minutes for each story. you know what? >> let's just say we didn't do this story. do you think people would miss? >> we've already started. basically, this is an important story. >> basically he was he was he filmed himself saying he was being chased by, by far right protesters . and that caused a protesters. and that caused a lot of some people not not many, some people to get worried for. >> yes, steve. i mean , this is >> yes, steve. i mean, this is this is the internet misinformation that people have been talking about. >> this would have whipped people up. it's like when hope not hate shared that hoax that said, you know, far right yobs were throwing acid at muslim women and then, you know, obviously inflame the situation made people very angry, could have contributed to violent attacks. this also could have contributed to violent attacks. >> definitely. so. and our justice system actually has caught him for it and he's been sent down for it. so actually,
11:34 pm
annoyingly, you're not going to like this. this is filling in that other tier that you thought didn't have anything in the two tiers. but the idea of, i'm sure it's filled to the top. oh no, not yet, but at least it's a step in the right direction. the idea of pretending that you're being chased mentally is it's on a par with, you know, when eric morecambe used to pretend to reach behind the curtain and go like, well, he's got me. it's basically that and the idea that you'd stream it as well. i've never been chased for my life, but i wouldn't be like, oh, this, this will trend. and he was, he was streaming it to 700 andifs was, he was streaming it to 700 and it's called what it's called comedy. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> maybe he wasn't doing a bit. >> maybe he wasn't doing a bit. >> maybe he wasn't doing a bit. >> maybe it's not funny. he was. >> maybe it's not funny. he was. >> it is comedy. >> it is comedy. >> he was doing a bad i don't think it was comedy because he wouldn't have been convicted, surely. >> yeah. oh, yeah. >> yeah. oh, yeah. >> that's there's sorry if it was comedy and have a sound effect and be like, yeah, they're coming for you. >> do a voice. >> all right. so maybe that's what i need to do because. because people on internet are saying i'm not a comedian. so please, please try not to be comedian. >> we've got the telegraph now, and it looks like the police are systemically racist after all. but it's against white people. >> steve white police officers passed over for promotion because of their race. the
11:35 pm
employment judge ruled that the three officers were directly discriminated against when the force appointed an asian sergeant. well, thames valley police, they directly discriminated. let's have a look. where is this evidence of this so—called discrimination? the boss asked the person doing the hiring to make it happen. oh, okay. that's pretty much on the money. yeah. the cops couldn't even apply for the job. the asian sergeant was promoted to the rank of detective inspector. jumped two ranks on this one. so you can't really even say most qualified for the job. they've lost that one. and it was despite warnings that there were legal risks of not holding a competitive process. and i don't know who would be good at knowing legal stuff, these police officers. so it was a bad move. it was a mess. what you're meant to do is hold a competitive in a process and then pick the one you wanted. all along. >> yeah, at least make everybody waste their time. >> yeah, at least make people waste their time. that's how you get away with it. >> but this is i mean, this is happening across a lot of organisations. it's just they've been quite clumsy and ham fisted have been caught. lewis.
11:36 pm
>> yeah it does. and i'm really surprised that steve is actually sounding reasonable. and it's a bit of a shock to me. but the truth is, let them hide, let the police hire. they don't want to hire white people. i know this used to be a white country, but you know what? maybe, maybe the white people. nice to know. yeah. maybe it's time to change it. >> okay, we've got the guardian now. you sound like a you sound like a guardian article. lewis. >> i don't believe that, though. comedian the guardian now with more threats for elon musk over the riots in britain, there's nobody understand that people were actually upset that children had been killed regardless of anything that elon musk said . lewis, do you know musk said. lewis, do you know something? they're giving elon musk a bit too much credit. this is the thing. it's it says elon musk should face arrest if he if heinched musk should face arrest if he if he incited uk rioters, says ex twitter chief he wasn't the twitter chief he wasn't the twitter chief, he was just a vice president of something. and even everybody out there knows there are a million vice presidents. >> and when you say ex twitter, that's it means formerly twitter, formerly rather than which means i don't know what the history of the guy is, but elon musk probably fired the dude. >> so i'd be upset too if i was fired. i know what it's like. so
11:37 pm
he's fired elon musk and he he actually, you know, he represents the left wing, horrible ex twitter that prevented information from getting out. >> and this guy and also twitter under you know the previous regime they did a lot of misinformation of their own. >> so the hunter biden laptop story, which is a perfectly valid story that could swayed the election that was that was buned the election that was that was buried and suppressed as fake information, as fake news under the previous administration, which i guess this guy was, was part of. >> and even in this, the if does a lot of heavy lifting visit elon musk should face arrest if heinched elon musk should face arrest if he incited uk rights. and again |, he incited uk rights. and again i, i think i could see a tweet from elon musk and he says what civil war is inevitable. that's not made me do a civil war because you can just see it. people can be wrong. it's okay to read a thing that's wrong. it's a warning rather than an incitement. >> it's saying it's almost it's almost the opposite of it's like. >> it's like what lewis schaffer says. he says there's a war going on. i'm not. i'm not hoping there's a war. you're pointing out there's a war. and let's you're warning that
11:38 pm
there's a war, warning there's a war. and even if he's even, he lives in america. god bless him. he's the luckiest guy in the world. he's living in america. and if he if he says a lot of good stuff has happened because of civil war, there's going to be a civil war in venezuela because the leader refused to back down. so what's i'm personally against i like quiet. >> yeah , well, i like free speech. >> i don't feel threatened by free speech. i feel threatened by authoritarian governments who want to stifle any conversation, which is what the government we have now and the government we just had was sort of half that. >> and, and, and they're headed for trouble. am i am i predict am i fomenting trouble by saying that i'm, i'm predicting trouble. yeah. who knows? you >> well, we've got the telegraph now and a fringe comedy show audience revealed the violent anti—semitism lurking behind the facade of kindness and tolerance as they nearly started a pogrom against jews in the audience. lewis. >> yes. well that's what the scary part is. and i read this thing and i just this is a
11:39 pm
comedian tells israeli audience members to leave his festival show, and we weren't there. so we don't know exactly which comedian his name, his name was was my friend reginald d hunter, who's brilliant and i don't i know he hung out with me and i'm a jew and i actually owe him some money. but so i think he paid some guy, some guy in the he was made a bit about how, how some relationship he was in was horrible. it was like it was like going out with israel. yeah. and it was i laugh when i heard it and he said some other things that were quite funny that i thought, it's like he said, he says i'd be married to israel. he said. and then he used some other things that i thought were funny. >> well, somebody in the audience heckled and said, not funny. and they were israeli or and they were israeli. >> and then let me just finish the point, and then the rest of the point, and then the rest of the audience starts tearing into this guy screaming pro—palestine israeli guy into the israeli guy screaming pro—palestine. and i think, i think reginald d hunter probably is going, what the hell
11:40 pm
did i just can i say, hell? what did i just can i say, hell? what did i just incite in this audience that people are screaming pro gaza things ? and, screaming pro gaza things? and, and so the, the writer of this what's his name? cavendish. max dominic cavendish, lovely guy. and i think he gave me a good review once, but i think, i don't know, i don't know, i don't know, i don't know, i don't want to judge reginald. yeah. >> i mean i feel reginald d hunter i've gig with him. lovely quy- hunter i've gig with him. lovely guy. doesn't seem like, you know, obviously racist or anti—semitic and he's. i feel like the audience are more at fault here than he is. i mean, they turned on the israeli audience member and apparently also the israeli audience member. i shouldn't laugh, but he was disabled, so it made it really awkward because they booed him and asked him to leave. but then it took him a long time to leave, which that in itself is quite an awkward fringe moment. >> but imagine being on stage in that moment and you're like, okay, the audience have turned against these two and they're going to leave, and then you just hear, like all the apparatus that's required to
11:41 pm
walk, oh, this is not going to go well. >> i did a gig in an old folks home once and man, they, they they obviously hated me. it was a complete, you know, a missed booking. like when i got there, they asked if i was going to finish on a song and i was like, i'm i'm not that kind of, you know, i mean, they hated me so, so much. and then i persevered because i wanted to get paid. and i heard this clatter and i turned round and somebody had dropped one of their crutches, and i was like, they hate me. so much. i was like, people who couldn't walk were walking out. it was amazing. >> but you know what's interesting is that, is that i don't think i've ever asked anybody to leave my show. i never said, if you don't like it, you can leave. i never said that. i begged people to stay because there's so few you wouldn't number. >> well, we've got just the final section to go and join us after the break to hear the secret to men's happiness. why our heritage makes makes business sense, and why traffic lights might be

11:45 pm
>> mai tai. welcome back to the final section of headliners. >> and just to answer one of your questions that that was tweeted in yes , louis schaefer tweeted in yes, louis schaefer does dye his eyebrows, but you can't afford the rest of his head. we've got the daily meal now with good news. ejaculating reduces your risk of cancer, although in my experience, it also increases your risk of being asked to leave greggs. >> they are nice. >> they are nice. >> so how often should men ejaculate to lower the risk of cancer? according to a major review, here's a story that i have printed off. i'll leave this on the coffee table. don't blame me, my darling. it's science. but men who want to lower their risk of common cancer should have sex more or masturbate it ruins the thing there, doesn't it. research by men in long term relationships. one would imagine. i don't know if this means that you can get a subscription to razzle on the nhs, but there's no harm in asking. is there? the research says that climax in 21 times per month is a lot. it's a lot in february, but i reckon i could handle it. cold, cold, 28 days and cold weather. not a chance. but it's correlation. not causation. just to ruin this
11:46 pm
study. what they did is good. all right. thank you i thank you. they they didn't give a challenge and say like off you go 21 and then report back and we'll check your cancer drugs correlate i mean how would somebody who's more prone to cancer. >> cancen >> well what what is it's retrospective. >> so they look at people and say , how many times did you do, say, how many times did you do, you know, satan's jive back in your youth? so it could be that there's a correlation between being boastful and lower incidence of prostate cancer . incidence of prostate cancer. >> right. >> right. >> so boast more. >> so boast more. >> yeah. say you've had a lot . >> yeah. say you've had a lot. >> yeah. say you've had a lot. >> yeah. say you've had a lot. >> yeah i agree i think i think steve i take back all the bad things that i've said or thought about you or thought i thought, because you're right about that. it's a ridiculous study. basically, men who are more likely to lie about how many times they masturbated live, live longer . maybe the guys who live longer. maybe the guys who say that they they do that a lot are not doing it a lot, and they would have lived, lived longer. >> they're lying about having cancer as well. yeah. >> it's a it's a core. it's correlation or i call it car correlation or i call it car correlation association. >> sort of like what steve, of making no sense whatsoever. >> the guardian now with more
11:47 pm
from the edinburgh fringe this time it's the funniest jokes lewis. >> this was a gruelling thing. >> this was a gruelling thing. >> this is a gay sheep and gaslighting. ten of the funniest jokes from the edinburgh fringe 2024. have you ever been on the list? can i ask , have you ever list? can i ask, have you ever been on? >> yeah, the worst joke of the edinburgh fringe. yeah, i can't even remember what it was a terrible pun. i can't even remember what it is. >> yeah. so the fact is, it's really prime minister said he's going to say i can't email him, because he's not on hotmail. >> i said, benjamin, not in yahoo i thanks for laughing . yahoo! thanks for laughing. >> exactly. >> exactly. >> that's actually a betterjoke >> that's actually a better joke than these things, than these jokes. basically, before the before the festival , you know, before the festival, you know, they write write in. i don't know who this who who organises this. but you say you write into a place with your with a couple of your best jokes, and then they pick your rafe . they pick your rafe. >> we're only it's even worse than that, isn't it? what happens is you do an edinburgh show, you pay a couple of grand to a pr person who'll say, you've got any jokes you could send in, and then, even if they're not in the show, no one
11:48 pm
ever checks. and when i was youngenl ever checks. and when i was younger, i used to always be in like, the independent list. and these days i was getting the telegraph list. i'm not sure if i've changed, but i think you're changing. >> i think something's come over you tonight. there are quite a few stories tonight that seemed almost reasonable. >> yeah, yeah, you're finally becoming radicalised into becoming radicalised into becoming like josh. it's amazing. >> we've got the sun now and apparently random noises can help you lose weight. which must be why lizzo has never collaborated with yoko ono. steve, the random noise technique could help you lose weight by slashing cravings and emotional eating, zapping the brain with random electrical noise. >> i mean, that's key. it's electrical. don't just sit around listening to a zoo format breakfast show in your ears and the electric. basically, if you electrocute your brain, it could help you lose some weight. i've seen one flew over the cuckoo's nest. i'm willing to believe this. it seems to make sense. >> this is just the noises of like, you know, like somebody getting electrocuted. >> no, this is the electrical impulses and stuff going off in your head. you can interfere with them or add a noise signal to them, and that works. but before it gets all technical, they did this study for two weeks. so we don't really. it
11:49 pm
makes you less hungry for fortnight. >> did you say that? like the women in total total recall two weeks. >> two weeks. >> two weeks. >> get ready for a surprise, i've watched that film way too many times, but yeah, basically, you could electrocute your brain. it's better than going on a diet, because at least you won't bore people about the meats you eat all the time. >> i mean, would you would you consider this? >> lewis, you're into diets. >> lewis, you're into diets. >> you know what? i would consider it. i don't bore people about the meat that i eat. i think people are really interested in my diet. >> did you eat today? >> did you eat today? >> i ate basically a pound of brisket, raw brisket, three eggs, a bowl of mozzarella cheese. >> sounds like random noise. and i actually am now less hungry. >> and two pieces of chicken, no plants . well, i did eat a bit plants. well, i did eat a bit anyway. the point is no , steve. anyway. the point is no, steve. steve is right. not right. i don't know what you said. i don't know what you said. i don't know what you said. i don't know what you said, but i think you're right. is that you do anything for a couple of weeks. it's going to take your mind off of doing other things. yeah so they probably played less cricket or baseball or whatever they were doing. >> i feel like we're back to the ejaculation story.
11:50 pm
>> yes, it's the same thing. it's just random . carl. it's just random. carl. correlation, association risk of link two. it's just it's like why psychiatry works. you go in and you speak to somebody for an houn >> so you said it didn't work top of the show. you said it didn't work. >> i was talking to people. makes you feel a bit better. it doesn't work. >> and also i think there's a there's an incentive for therapists to not fix you because if they fix you, you don't come back and they don't get their money. moving on. we've got the times now and generation z or z, if you're in america, have even managed to ruin going to the pub. lewis this is a tragedy. >> last orders for post—work dnnks >> last orders for post—work drinks as gen z shuns alcohol and gen z, i think are 18 to 27. i think that's what it is. i don't pay 18 to 27. they don't dnnk don't pay 18 to 27. they don't drink alcohol as much as they used to. maybe because alcohol is so expensive. this is from the work foundation at lancaster university. at least it's not from harvard university is that people don't want to drink anymore. it's too expensive. it's £9. >> is that what it is? what is it just because they don't want to drink?
11:51 pm
>> or are they getting their kicks on social media? >> no, they don't want to drink. they're doing, they're doing, they're smoking, they're vaping. they're doing the other kinds of drugs like crazy. my kids and me were on. i'm not saying me. did i just say me ? i just wanted to i just say me? i just wanted to feel it. >> it would explain a lot. >> it would explain a lot. >> this makes me feel very old, because i remember when we used to have a go at millennials for being young, and now millennials are old, so now we have to have are old, so now we have to have a go at gen zs, but they don't know anything that's fun. they don't have sex. they don't drink. what do you do. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> and speaking of feeling old, tom daley has retired. how could tom daley has retired. how could tom daley. he's like 14. >> imagine how much knitting he'll do now. >> no, but you know what? you were there about this thing about the, about the. >> okay. >> okay. >> well, let's let's quickly squeeze this one in. lewis. >> finally, the daily star with a delay. it because i never i never read the last story, don't. >> all right, so doctors say staying awake for 12 days is madness. it's a youtuber. he stayed awake for 12 days. i mean, as a parent to a new baby. so what the. this is, like, all my 12 days, but, he streamed it. who would watch someone just being tired for just over a week, the article says after two
11:52 pm
days you start to crave sleep and get microsleeps, so it's cheating straight away. after day three, you have trouble speaking in and constructing sentences. we should get him. when was the last time you had a kip lewis? >> first of all, why you should rest? >> well, the show is nearly oven >> well, the show is nearly over. like, shut up, lewis. >> so let's take another quick look at tuesday's front pages. the daily telegraph leads with starmer warns iran no attack on israel or else the guard has silent killer heat waves in europe claim 50,000 lives. the independent has failures at nhs hospital that left triple killer free. the daily express has get a grip and fast. labour is doing nothing to stop the boats. the times has zelenskyy takes war to putin. and finally the daily star has invasion of the angry , star has invasion of the angry, drunken german wasps. they're probably all in hotels at our expense. and those were front pages. and that's it for tonight's shows . tonight's show, tonight's shows. tonight's show, thanks to steve and lewis andrew doyle, will be here tomorrow at 11 pm. goodbye, baby. >> sleep. they can't sleep .
