let's get the news headlines with sam francis. >> dawn, thank you very much. and good afternoon to you. 1:02, the top story this lunchtime. it is understood dozens of people have been killed in israeli airstrikes in both gaza and lebanon. iran backed hezbollah has continued firing rockets. now, around 55. we believe in retaliation , iran backed retaliation, iran backed hezbollah has continued that attack in response, as the israeli prime minister has expressed cautious optimism about a ceasefire deal with hamas, including for the release of hostages. the militant group, who aren't present for those talks , say that the claim is talks, say that the claim is there's been no progress in reaching a deal. meanwhile, president biden claims he is remaining optimistic that an agreement is closer than ever. there are concerns that the safety of the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant is deteriorating after a drone strike. it caused an explosion

just outside the site's protected area . although no protected area. although no casualties have been reported at this stage, the facility, the largest of its kind in europe, has been occupied by russian soldiers since early in the war. it comes as ukraine's incursion continues into russian territory and earlier today , former head and earlier today, former head of counter—terrorism at the ministry of defence , major ministry of defence, major general chip chapman, told us british donated equipment is helping ukraine to push back vladimir putin. >> one of the things that the offensive does is establish momentum and initiative, and gives more willingness to continue to support ukraine, because what you can say previously is that they were losing slowly and initially. the provision of support equalised the battlefield, and now at least the momentum and initiative is with them in a tactical sense. >> chip chapman they're speaking to us this morning. well, in other news, official figures have revealed almost 500 people crossed the english channel yesterday in at least nine small boats. they made that journey

following two days of no reported migrant arrivals , and reported migrant arrivals, and it brings the total number of migrants reaching uk waters so far this year to now, 19,000. more than 5000 of those have arrived in britain since labour came into power on the 4th of july. the home office insists it is creating a new border security command to tackle the problem . the home secretary has problem. the home secretary has announced a new crackdown on extremism, pledging to tackle harmful ideologies and address gapsin harmful ideologies and address gaps in current policies. the home office is launching a rapid sprint to analyse and recommend strategies for countering extremist threats, including rising radicalisation among young people online. that initiative follows violent riots across england in recent weeks after the southport stabbings, with over 460 people so far appearing in court, including more than 70 minors. yvette cooper says the new approach will target a spectrum of extremist ideologies . a don't

extremist ideologies. a don't swim alert has been issued for a popular devon seaside town because of a sewage leak. there south west water says it can't keep up with the spill caused by a burst pipe at a nearby pumping station in exmouth. it has apologised and insists engineers are working round the clock to fix the problem . it comes after fix the problem. it comes after the regulator, ofwat, announced water bills will rise by an average of £94 over five years to cover the cost of upgrading infrastructure. it was also revealed that three water companies, though not including south west water, are facing a combined fine of £168 million for failings including over sewage treatment. well, the king is set to cut prince andrew's security team, according to reports out today. the privately funded protection provided by king charles was after the duke of york lost his police security in 2022 will end in november. we understand , and sources suggest understand, and sources suggest the move indicates the duke may also be forced to leave the

royal lodge, with pressure mounting amid renewed scrutiny to his ties to jeffrey epstein earlier this year, andrew refused to move out of frogmore. move to frogmore cottage rather, despite facing steep security costs , the european space costs, the european space agency's juice spacecraft will perform a world first lunar earth flyby on monday night, marking a critical point in its journey to jupiter. marking a critical point in its journey to jupiter . the journey to jupiter. the manoeuvre will use the moon's gravity and then earth's as natural brakes before slingshotting juice towards venus, saving significant fuel. it's high risk, though, guided by specialist flight controllers here on earth that could determine the mission's success. but they say even a minor error would potentially end that mission. juice, of course, equipped with uk developed instruments, is on a 4.1 billion mile trip to explore jupiter's moons for signs of life . and moons for signs of life. and finally, before we head back to dawn neesom sport for you, keely hodgkinson is eyeing history

after clinching gold in the 800m at the paris olympics, with her sights now set on smashing the 40 year old world record . the 22 40 year old world record. the 22 year old says her recent performance in london, where she ran just less than a second over that record has fuelled her confidence. she's not slowing down either, hodgkinson will compete until september, chasing a third diamond league title before taking a much needed break. >> it's been a long time before anyone's even hit the 53 seconds, so i'd love to do that. i think i can, i now believe i can do that and i think now with the science that we have in the sport and the technology that we have that's up and coming, i think we should welcome it. and that's what's helping us get near to these records. and yeah, i'm all for it. so i'd love to see how close i can get to it. >> and if she ever does beat that world record, gb news will be where you'll hear it first. those are the latest headlines for now. i'm sam francis back with you in just over half an hour for the very latest gb news

actually means. ray. lovely to see you, okay. this is the front page of the sunday telegraph today. huge story. what does it actually mean ? actually mean? >> well, a huge response from our listeners and our viewers to this story. dawn. a lot of concern about who defines what classes as misogyny and who defines also what classes as extreme. we have seen those allegations in recent weeks about the kind of allegations of about the kind of allegations of a two tier policy, depending upon what your view might be, and this seems to have sort of added a little bit of fuel to that fire. so this is the labour government looking at these plans to treat what they describe as extreme misogyny, as a form of terrorism, with the home secretary, yvette cooper, ordering a review of the counterterrorism strategy to crack down on what she's calling hateful beliefs. now, the home office says that it will be

looking at both the rise of extreme islamist and far right views here in the united kingdom. but and this is kind of the key bit where it plays into this misogyny line. they're going to be looking at wider ideological trends as well, including misogyny to address violence against women and girls. now, cooper has said that the government has failed to address the rise in extremism in recent years. she says we've seen the number of young people radicalised online grow and she wants to use this review that she's putting in place to identify gaps in current legislation and presumably add more laws and have more laws in place so that the police could act swiftly if they consider they've come across something onune they've come across something online or in in the streets . online or in in the streets. comments made that could be counted as extreme misogyny. now, when it comes to misogyny, the police have commented on this before. they've warned that onune this before. they've warned that online influencers such as andrew tate could radicalise

young men and boys. i'm sure obviously he would disagree with that, but they say it could be taking place in the same way that terrorists attract and draw in and radicalise their own followers too. now, already there are several extremism categories ranked by the home office behind me, and that includes the term incel or involuntary celibate. now these are men who blame women for their lack of sexual opportunities, and that is already classified by the home office as an extreme view. so under these proposals, it wouldn't just be a case of, policing the internet or the police policing the internet. teachers as well could be legally required to refer pupils in their school that they suspect of extreme misogyny to the government's organisation . the government's organisation. prevent that, of course, being the uk government's counter—terrorism programme, which would normally be dealing with far, far right and islamist

views as well. so it's caused a lot of conversation. as i said at the beginning , people just at the beginning, people just asking who really decides which views are hateful? and some people saying that this use of this, these organisations could just devalue the threat of terrorism. >> thank you very much, ray. that's ray addison outside the home office for us with the news that sarah and broken today , that sarah and broken today, that sarah and broken today, that extreme misogyny will now be treated, as terrorism , so be treated, as terrorism, so many questions. i'm sure you have as well, i, i don't even know where to begin joining me. so i'm gonna go to my panel. basically joining me now is journalist benedict spence, and my panel , former labour advisor my panel, former labour advisor scarlett mccgwire and journalist claire morden . benedict, i am claire morden. benedict, i am going to come to you first as the man on the panel, look, we've seen horrific examples of violence against women and girls recently with the three little girls killed in southport, the

young dutch tourist knifed in leicester square . we know that leicester square. we know that a woman is killed by a man on average every three days in the uk, normally by a man she knows. yeah, so there's no denying something needs to be done. but is this the way to go about it? >> i suspect probably first and foremost, i'd say that this is a headune foremost, i'd say that this is a headline grabbing opportunity for the government to say we're going to get tough on this issue because there's no doubt, as you say, actually, there is an epidemic of violence against women and girls in this country , women and girls in this country, whether or not you can classify it as terrorism is another thing, because of course, i think terrorism is far more ideological in its nature. and the majority well, this is the thing, i suppose the majority of incidents of domestic violence, i think, would almost certainly fall under the sort of the umbrella of misogyny. but that's not the same as saying that people are motivated by some sort of ideology. it's also far, far more prevalent than islamism or far right activity. so i don't quite see how it is that you're going to be able to sort of give counter—terrorism units the same sort of resources and expect them to deal with laws

against things like domestic violence and rape and sex crimes. >> we have laws against what you could say, extreme misogyny. >> i think. i mean, the incel phenomenon is a kind of it's a difficult thing to quantify because we've not actually had an incidence of sort of mass incel based terrorist activity or something in this country. we've not even had it really in other countries, even though it's far more prevalent in other countries. whereas we have had terrorist incidents to do with the far right or irish republicanism or whatever it is you want to talk about. i think fundamentally you do far better addressing the issue of violence against women and girls. if you were to treat it as it, as it as it is, which is ultimately a crisis of violence among men, the other side of that coin, i think, is also where you see suicide amongst men is that basically there are lots of men who are very angry, very upset, very disillusioned with life and they vent their frustrations in all manner of different directions. now to highlight the examples, the recent stabbings, i think it's potentially a dangerous one because we don't yet know what the motivations were . that's not been made were. that's not been made apparent. and when it comes to

issues like that , it can be issues like that, it can be something like radicalisation. it can also be something like severely bad mental health, which actually does not know it was just examples recently. >> and it's more to do with it's more to do in those cases of going after a vulnerable and available person who will often, more often than not, tend to be female and young than male. >> but i think looking at radicalisation from a young age , radicalisation from a young age, what falls under the what falls under the remit of misogyny, i think that's very difficult to quantify. i think very quickly you'll see mission creep. i think things that might just be passed off as sort of boyish sexism might end up being referred to prevent when they don't need to be. and what i would say is shaming and bullying young boys at a formative stage in their life will have the opposite effect of de—radicalizing them, especially if it's done by a woman, an older woman whom most teachers and most social workers tend to be. i don't see that that would be. i don't see that that would be a beneficial thing at all. i think what is needed is stronger male role models and a better role for particularly disadvantaged young boys and men in society. that i think is far

better than saying, oh , these better than saying, oh, these people are extremists and need to be dealt with harshly. >> claire, i noticed you nodding along. yeah, i am, you are a mum. you have sons. yeah one son and three girls. >> and my son is the youngest. yeah and it is incredibly important that young men do have role models. i was a single mother bringing up all four children, 24 hours, seven days a week, and i think that although the girls would say tom's my favourite, he's not. he's gorgeous. i love him, love them all. but it's very, very important that males in particular do have strong role models. and i do fear that this is going to run into problems of definition of misogyny. and i don't think we've got the manpower and the police power to police it either. i think people would far rather that police were up to date with crimes as they are, as they are reported now, than having a cps when it was under starmer , rape was under starmer, rape convictions actually went down. so and then we've got the trans

issue as well . i mean labour issue as well. i mean labour barely know if a woman can be a biological woman or not. i mean, we've got major issues here with this. i think it is a headline grabbing account from yvette cooper , who i think has hit the, cooper, who i think has hit the, you know, running track running. i mean, take my hat off to her yesterday she introduced a new bill, hopefully to get young lads together. i mean, this is all on the back of other stuff, so she's making some really positive jumps and leaps, but i'm afraid in the rollout i'm quite, quite sceptical as i mean, what is women's bad driving? making a comment about that ? where is the line you see that? where is the line you see between humour and serious fact? >> this is the problem. i'm having here with scarlett coming to you now. it's, you know, people who have hateful beliefs . people who have hateful beliefs. so are the government now going to be responsible for telling us what to think? well, i mean , i what to think? well, i mean, i that's the problem with prevent, isn't it? >> i mean , prevent doesn't >> i mean, prevent doesn't

actually prevent any prevent is not fit for purpose. >> well, explain what prevent is because a lot of people won't know what it is. >> okay? so prevent is a is something that is supposed to get radicalism at its roots at its. so it's looking particularly at young people . particularly at young people. and when we say young, we're talking right to down primary school age. it's crazy right? it is crazy. and it's and it's accusing young muslim boys of primary school age of radicalism when they're looking for things . when they're looking for things. and ditto far right. and it's going to be the same . so i mean, going to be the same. so i mean, what i do know is that they're looking that that the top people in counter—terrorism say that prevent is not fit for purpose. and actually, the home office are looking to, to completely redo it. >> an independent review prevent earlier this year proved it wasn't fit for purpose. >> it's not that misogyny. i mean, i think i mean, i agree

with benedict is that i think this is about it's about headunes this is about it's about headlines rather than what's underneath that actually the cheap. underneath that actually the cheap . mark rowley, the head of cheap. mark rowley, the head of the metropolitan police , says, the metropolitan police, says, you know, there is a crisis of violence against women and girls. and he's absolutely right. and we have to do something about it. doing something about it. doing something about it isn't about and quite clearly , you know, if and quite clearly, you know, if three if, if, if a, if a woman is killed every three days and as you say normally by somebody they know, i mean, we're not talking normally about these stalkers and people. no, no no, no, we're talking about a husband ex husband, ex—husband, ex—partner, those sort of people , ex—partner, those sort of people, there is a real problem in schools , actually, for women schools, actually, for women teachers, because people like andrew tate are influencing them so that boys aren't listening. and actually, what, what we need to do is we need to look at the culture, so that so that

benedict's right. i mean, a if somebody like me started telling off a young man or a 15 year old boy, i mean , i have to say, boy, i mean, i have to say, i did take take on ten of them in a railway carriage and told them i was, you know, i was not going to listen to them talking to me about respect when they were playing their music so loudly. >> what reaction did you get, scarlett? >> i got an apology. i mean , i >> i got an apology. i mean, i did, i really pushed it on. i said, you know, i'm going through chemotherapy at the moment , i through chemotherapy at the moment, i need through chemotherapy at the moment , i need peace, through chemotherapy at the moment, i need peace, i'm going somewhere. and actually it was mixed. it was mixed and they were about they were about 18 and it worked. i mean , so and it worked. i mean, so sometimes boring old ladies can do quite a lot, but but i do i mean, i think to say it seriously, i mean, actually the one thing benedict is wrong is, is there was an incident in plymouth with an incel who first of all, killed his mother and then went and killed whoever else was. i mean, incel, which is involuntary celibates because men do believe that basically women are there to have sex with

them. and that is our major role. i mean, that is a really worrying thing , and it's mostly worrying thing, and it's mostly in america. i absolutely agree. >> but there's something there's something else about the incel phenomenon that often gets missed in all of this. and this is the high prevalence of autism amongst people who actually fall into this remit. they are people who are very vulnerable already and could fall into any sorts of things and have troubles to begin with. i again, i don't actually see what's beneficial about saying to somebody who is already at a massive disadvantage socially, you are fundamentally wrong. you have, you know, you've got this awful ideology and you are effectively wicked because we are branding you with that terrorism or extremist label. people like that. actually, i think they need early intervention , but, need early intervention, but, you know, putting labels on them and that sort of thing. i think has the opposite effect, especially with somebody who is, again , neurologically diverse, again, neurologically diverse, as they say, who is more likely to double down. >> i think you're right. i think i think early intervention doesn't have to be naming and shaming. i mean, early intervention is saying this is a real problem. how do we sort it out? and actually , that's what

out? and actually, that's what should be done with the far right. and that's what should be early intervention for young lads should be keeping away from gaming and keeping away from porn. >> so it's easier said than done. >> well, take your smartphones away. actually, halfway there. >> that's what i did in my house. >> it's i mean, again though, it's i think that we do always need to remember very important strong male role models who, you know, i'm not saying that, you know, i'm not saying that, you know, it's going to solve everything, but in lots of instances where you'll also see violence later on down the line, it's because of a lack of that. and there are other things as well. alcoholism in parents plays a very large part. something else that we have to say is some migrant communities, not all, have very different views on what a woman's role is, and they sometimes pass that down to their children that often doesn't get picked up because of squeamishness about not wanting to appear culturally insensitive. there are many different reasons why people end up becoming violent towards women and girls. there is no sort of blanket approach to this, but what i would say is i'll go back to it. shaming people from an early age that is not going to end particularly

well. >> unfortunately. we are running out of time for this particular session, but we are coming back. is it wine time? >> pardon? is it wine time? though? >> i've been whining. we're setting a good example on this program, aren't we? >> right. okay. but we are coming back to that debate because it's very important. honestly, can't get the staff here. but we are coming back to this subject. it is very important obviously, and for all the best analysis and opinion on that story and so many more, please do go to our website, which is gb news. i'm dawn neesom and there's loads more coming up on today's show. should prince harry apologise for slavery? that's what the colombians are calling for. as the sussexes wrap up their so—called royal tour. inverted commas, i'll be getting the thoughts of royal expert on that. all of that and much more to come . this is gb news, to come. this is gb news, britain's news channel. we'll you very soon.

oh welcome back to the weekend. i'm dawn neesom and you're watching gb news and my panel all still here with me. and i can't control them to be honest with you. so i need your company today. now we're moving on from the previous story, but we will be going back to that debate. don't worry, i know lots of you want to have your say. harry and meghan are wrapping up their tour of colombia and locals have said prince harry should apologise for the royal family's role in slavery. meanwhile, king charles axed prince andrew's security team, which he has privately funding, and there's a few other royal stories there's lots of royal stories about today, so let's get to the bottom of them all with royal commentator richard fitzwilliams, shall we, hello. thank you very much for joining us, richard . now, shall we start us, richard. now, shall we start with harry? we may as well, mayn't we now. so here's our on this, this tour of colombia. and it's been to a free town , hasn't it's been to a free town, hasn't he? which was freed slaves built it and there was some suggestion that he should apologise for the royal family's role in slavery and colonialism. what do we make

of this one? >> well, i think that there was a call from some quarters, but the purpose of an apology, if one was offered, it would be up to the government , not an to the government, not an individual royal. and certainly not since he's not speaking on behalf of the government. and certainly not there as a senior working member of the royal family. so it would have been inappropriate. i think it was just a piece of press that i mean anything to do with this particular topic. and we remember the last time the william and catherine, where they visited the caribbean, this issue or issues linked to it did overshadow the tour . so harry overshadow the tour. so harry and meghan, i mean , they seem to and meghan, i mean, they seem to have carried it off, given the fact that the whole purpose was to highlight, firstly, their international profile and secondly that of colombia . i secondly that of colombia. i would say, given the fact it was also the theme of cyberbullying,

which is very significant . i which is very significant. i would say that the purpose of the tour , was very broadly what the tour, was very broadly what had been hoped , although it was had been hoped, although it was somewhat overshadowed by them losing their chief executive officer just before losing their chief executive officerjust before it started . officer just before it started. >> indeed. and we've obviously discussed the security aspects at length, the fact that they feel fairly safe going to colombia, but they're a bit terrified about going to windsor, but also the other talking of windsor, the other story i wanted to talk to you about, richard is king charles has firing andrew. prince andrew's ten man private security team. what do you make of this one? >> well, if true, it is a very clear indication that his tenure royal lodge may well be limited. i mean, the problem is he's there on a long lease, so getting rid of him isn't particularly easy. he would have to go of his own volition, and that would be because he couldn't afford repairs. but on the other hand, he would be

compensated for those repairs and also the money that he'd invested in it. and it's it is a story that i mean, andrew is , of story that i mean, andrew is, of course, embarrassment to the royal family. there's no doubt he's there's no way back for him. and the fact he is occupying such a large property is undoubtedly embarrassing to the king. equally, reports say that he's joining the royal family at balmoral, and the other issue is that this does affect not only sarah ferguson, his ex—wife of course, remains in intimate terms with him living with him, but also, of course, beatrice and eugenie. so when this actually happens, let's just see how the story develops. there have been a lot of reports that the king is pressurising him to leave, and would probably wish him to go into a move into frogmore cottage, but it hasn't happened yet. >> interesting. i mean, there are soap opera, aren't they? richard fitzwilliams, thank you very much for joining

richard fitzwilliams, thank you very much forjoining us and bringing us up to date on planet royal happenings. now let's see what my panel make of this. i'm journalist benedict spence, former labour advisor scarlett mccgwire and journalist clare muldoon. with me mostly being quite well behaved for a couple of minutes at least, clare, i'm going to come to you first because you've got that glint in your eye on this one. i mean, harry, on this royal tour, in inverted commas. people, by harry, on this royal tour, in inverted commas . people, by the inverted commas. people, by the way, he visited a free town that was set up by slaves that were freed . and there was a, you freed. and there was a, you know, an implication that maybe he would like to apologise for things that happened several hundred years ago. what do you make? shaking my head? >> shaking my head already? how on earth these two can think that going to colombia and bogota is safer than going to windsor, or indeed to the uk is beyond me for a start. windsor, or indeed to the uk is beyond me for a start . and beyond me for a start. and secondly, i don't think anyone should be apologising for slavery and especially the royal family or any other part of the royal family. do we even know? i mean, it's there's such a hybrid version of themselves. i don't think they even know their own

identities. so no, i'm really i really don't think that they should. and they really ought to be. they shouldn't be being brought in to discussions about this as well. things that happenedin this as well. things that happened in the history are there to prove to and prove points and show and shape the future. hopefully we can't change the history. we can't change the history. we can't change what happened. we can't barely we can barely repair it. so why are we being held accountable for it? and why should we feel the need to apologise? >> scarlett, do you think they would? >> i mean, prince charles, i'm king charles, i do that all the time. >> he has apologised, right? >> he has apologised, right? >> i mean, i'm so , so he he felt >> i mean, i'm so, so he he felt there was i mean i, i, i actually don't understand all these people who sort of hate harry and meghan but have to cover them all the time. i mean, the daily mail probably runs four stories a day on online about harry and meghan each. you know , harry's been seen driving know, harry's been seen driving meghan's out in this dress. i

mean, let's let's just ignore them. as far as columbia goes, i presume they were given masses of security, whereas they're not here. >> they have ballistic briefcases, which was fascinating. >> i mean, which i didn't understand at all. >> no, me neither. but i mean, i just think i mean, i think , just think i mean, i think, yeah, you know, they can go and visit columbia. >> they can go and visit anywhere. i really don't care. >> benedict. sorry. we haven't got time to come to you. oh, i know, i know, but because i would love to talk about the role of the global cocaine trade in the slavery trade today, which is higher than it has ever beenin which is higher than it has ever been in history. >> i wonder what the colombians might have to say about that. >> but that's perhaps for another time. >> made a very good point, very briefly there, right. thank you very much. i'm dawn neesom this is gb news, and there's loads more coming up on today's show, including an experience like no other up in edinburgh. find out exactly what i'm talking about after the latest news headlines with saint francis. >> very good afternoon to you. just after 1:30. and the top story this hour, israeli airstrikes on gaza and lebanon

>> liam broady. >> liam broady. >> welcome back to the weekend with me dawn neesom. i hope

you're having a fabulous sunday out there and really having a good weekend now. edinburgh's month of festivals is well underway , but what can top the underway, but what can top the spectacle of the royal edinburgh military tattoo? enjoying the view from edinburgh castle? tony mcguire has the story this year edinburgh castle welcomes the royal navy on to the esplanade to lead more than 800 royal edinburgh military tattoo performers on a journey from the sea to the spotlight. >> the tattoo returned in 2022, bringing fresh ideas and offering up a bold new show by way of voices. the following yean way of voices. the following year, those voices told stories and this summer, those stories speak of journeys . american speak of journeys. american dream classics from the us sea service band, fluorescent drumbeats from switzerland and a rajasthani piper soloing against the neon taj mahal before a raucous highland rafe takes the 9000 strong party up a notch. journeys feels more ambitious than ever before, and tattoo chief executive jason barrett

believes the culture on display here is a unique platform for international engagement. >> as far as the tattoo and deaung >> as far as the tattoo and dealing with or working with international militaries or government or whatever the case may be, we think that is one of the strengths of the tattoo. as a convening authority, we provide an engagement platform here at the tattoo and culture can be that arm of soft power, soft diplomacy. and we like to play soft diplomacy. and we like to play a part in that. >> the edinburgh tattoo runs 25 performances over 23 nights, a test of endurance for any festival performer. but the sheer grandeur and scale of the tattoo sustains all 800 plus cast through to the very end. >> so i remember learning at school , scotland for the first school, scotland for the first time, and to get to do that now, bnng time, and to get to do that now, bring that back to home and play this every night. here is an amazing feeling. >> the india is all about colours and celebration and that's what we're trying to bnng that's what we're trying to bring with our music here. we're supen bring with our music here. we're super, super proud to be presenting our country at such a

great event. >> once we are here on the stage, on the platform to perform, it's just all out. >> everything that i have heard, this is the tattoo to model after. i can tell you honestly, this place for me is magical. >> it takes 12 weeks to erect the tattoo grandstand for the cast to spend just three weeks delivering night after night of unforgettable performances, before ten weeks, disassembly begins. the cast have just four days together before taking the show in front of their first audience. and if you're thinking, well, they would never do that just for any old show, you'd be right. it's traditional, at times, modern, and after voices told stories of showstopping journeys will need to wait until next summer to discover where the compass needle points our heroes . tony needle points our heroes. tony mcguire gb news edinburgh . mcguire gb news edinburgh. >> thank you very much, tony. now we were up in edinburgh last

week and a mates 50th birthday and it was amazing. it was a great atmosphere. everyone was very happy. even the husband who's normally very, very grumpy, was saying, oh, people are so happy up here because everyone was having a party and there were loads of flags, as you've just seen in in tony's report, there were loads of flags flying the saltire in particular, which got me thinking . it's particular, which got me thinking. it's an age particular, which got me thinking . it's an age old thinking. it's an age old conversation, isn't it? but why is it okay in scotland to fly the national flag with pride and everyone's going, oh, it's wonderful, it's lovely. and it was lovely and wonderful. i agree. but when it comes to the engush agree. but when it comes to the english flag, you are instantly racist and far right now, benedict, because you were outspoken by the ladies earlier on. i'm going to come to you first on this one, >> first and foremost, i think it's because england has seen as correctly the dominant country in the union and doesn't have a sort of a major breakaway movement within that. so the sort of the political legitimacy, therefore, that is attributed to, say, the saltire or as was attributed to the tricolour in ireland back in the day, doesn't quite stand up because there isn't the sense that the english are trying to break away from anything unless it's the european union. there is also the sense that you have

in england that you don't have in england that you don't have in scotland, i think to the same extent, which is that the intelligentsia, the english intelligentsia, the english intelligentsia, are a little bit ashamed of their own nationality. it is that they are british or indeed cosmopolitan, rather than they are english, whereas it is not seen as something to be looked down on in scotland. now, all of this is actually largely part of a great sort of sleight of hand. the scottish middle classes , and scottish middle classes, and indeed the irish, managed to do just as well out of empire as anybody in england did. that's why half the squares in london are named after scottish and irish landowners, because they did fantastically well after it. but as i say, this is ultimately why it is. and the assertion of engush why it is. and the assertion of english nationalism, because it's seen as sort of the assertion of the dominant over the other, is therefore perceived by the others as aggressive and by their own middle classes as slightly uncouth and unrefined. i think. >> and claire as the scottish voice on the panel. >> well, i think scottish people don't really have a lot to shout about now in terms look at their football team, look at their

football team, look at their football team, look at their sport. you know, it's not we're not that great on international sports arenas . and i think to sports arenas. and i think to fly the flag at things like the edinburgh festival or indeed at any time we can, the saltire is any time we can, the saltire is a beautiful flag. it's, named after saint andrew because he was crucified that way as opposed to that way, like christ. and so it's very symbolic. but ultimately the union flag, i think , is one of union flag, i think, is one of the most beautiful flags in this world. and it is it's a sign of unity. it is the united kingdom, scarlett, there's no shame in our flag, is there? >> at all? you're very proud of the flag in in the saint george's cross, in the in the saint george's flag or even the union flag. >> well, i think i think they, i think they're very different. i mean, what's interesting is when you really see the saint george's flag is, is , is for george's flag is, is, is for football is when the english team is playing football. everybody has a saint george's flag and people feel very, very english. and it is it is really interesting and it's completely

unifying actually. it didn't help that in the riots a lot of thugs were wrapped up in union flags that that actually that it is, you know , it is it is is, you know, it is it is frightening. but but but i think the good thing is the english football team. >> marvellous. okay. well i'm not even going to go down the explore the scottish route with football anymore. claire stop looking at me like that, all right? we've run out of time again, but football is coming up. why do. sorry no, actually, i've just done that bit, haven't we? i'm dawn neesom gb news. and coming up we are talking football. honestly, i'm getting excited. even though we lost last night, the premier league back and there is a huge clash this afternoon with chelsea playing man

break. hey, welcome back to the weekend with me dawn neesom. hope you're having a smashing sunday out there, now the premier league is

back with liverpool, arsenal and man united winning their opening games of the season. and we won't mention west ham, but this afternoon holders man city head to stamford bridge for a huge clash against chelsea. joining me now is the wonderful sports supremo paul coyte. hello paul. thank you very much for joining us, >> are you okay after yesterday? >> are you okay after yesterday? >> oh, this was a mistake, right? >> cancel him. yes. >> cancel him. yes. >> i'm the last person you want to speak to, right now, >> so because tottenham does so well so often. >> oh, yeah . >> oh, yeah. >> oh, yeah. >> thanks, scarlett. yeah. well, we're we're unbeaten this season so far. scarlett i'll have you know, we haven't played yet, but it is tomorrow. but so far unbeaten. >> i'll take it. >> i'll take it. >> if i were you. kjt. so kjt. i mean, what's your view of the season so far? is it, is it what we were expecting? i mean, is it you know it. stop people. rioting is one of the things we can say about it. >> well there's that. yeah, i think, i often expect that it's going to be a few strange results. in the first games of the season. i was hopeful for ipswich because ipswich, playing

their first game in the premier league in 22 years, you've got liverpool that have got a new manager and i'm thinking maybe that they've got a chance of turning over liverpool. they've played really well at the start. it was the first was the lunchtime game yesterday. but liverpool were just too strong . liverpool were just too strong. arne slot ana, who's the new manager . you know, he's manager. you know, he's instilling a new style of football. there he is. there's ana. i was calling him out. i prefer arnie, but he's ana, yesterday could have been more than two. but ipswich, it's going to be a tough season. they played well but we all know it's going to be a very tough season for them. so how many games ed sheeran is actually going to sit in for until he starts thinking, you know what, i think i've had enough and i'm going to be off. we'll see. >> so already one game he was there, wasn't he? >> oh yeah. yeah. because you know he's now a shareholder i think he's i think it's1% of the club. he's bought, which i don't know what that actually i think for ipswich as it would have been two years ago, 1% would have been the price of a season ticket, i think. but

things are different now. things are different now. they've had two great seasons, they've moved up, so they're now in the premier league. so i mean everybody wants underdogs to do well. so ipswich baptism of fire. but i think they started pretty well. although it was a loss. they didn't play too badly at all. >> yeah i mean they they did well they performed well didn't they. at the very least. so what do you make of this afternoon's game? kjt >> right. well, chelsea, i'm still to be honest with you, i don't know how chelsea fans feel about this or i do know how some of them feel, but i think it was such a mistake to get rid of mauricio pochettino because it's almost like the todd boehly , the almost like the todd boehly, the owner, has come in and said, right, clean slate. we're going to give everybody a chance. so graham potter comes in and that doesn't work out and he fires him. so he's gone, and so then mauricio pochettino comes in. this takes some time. so it's not working well . and i think not working well. and i think there's a lot of problems behind there's a lot of problems behind the scenes. i don't believe he was happy there anyway. but then towards the end of the season they started getting results. and finally and i know for a fact with him, it takes a while for players to get used to the

style and you've got to give managers time. you've just got to. and if you're going to start a new project, i know you've got to just really hold your nerve and say, look, we're going to stick with it. but then they decided to pull the rug from under his feet and he's gone. this is when they come in sixth, just as things are turning. so now another new manager comes in. this is enzo maresca, who was who was at leicester. so you've gone from kind of like a premier league newbie or someone who was a newbie , someone who's who was a newbie, someone who's quite inexperienced to pochettino then to someone who is inexperienced, never managed in the premier league. so with chelsea, i don't know. i don't know how this is going to go. they're throwing the money around all over the place, but you can buy as many players as you can buy as many players as you want, but if they're not in the right place and they're not the right place and they're not the right place and they're not the right players, they don't get on. it doesn't go with the manager. it ain't going to work. but then you've got manchester city and we know all about them. 18 trophies since, pep guardiola's been there, so i can't see anything else but a manchester city win. but you know it's football and anything could happen. you've got to take each game as it comes and you could be sick as a parrot as you

were yesterday. but it's early days. >> and why is football the one sport that has so many cliches involved in it? >> i don't know, were they? i thought i was just being smart. yeah, this is it. there's actually a book. there's actually a book. there's actually a book. i should bring it in tomorrow. there's a book of football cliches which is like this. so there's always plenty of because it's been going on for so long. well, anyway, i'm very excited. >> i was very impressed. i look forward to that book. thank you, paul coyte for bringing us up to date on the footy. right, so benedict scarlett and claire and dawn neesom on gb news and there's lots more coming up, but first we have to go to the weather because that's really important and it's the weekend, so you need to know what the weather's doing, don't you? here it is. >> a brighter outlook with boxt solar sponsors of weather on . gb news. >> hello and welcome to your latest gb news weather update from the met office. sunny spells continuing through sunday with a couple of showers further north, but it is all changed as we move into monday with some rain arriving. and that's from these frontal systems out in the

afternoon that the safety of the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant is deteriorating after a drone strike there , it caused an strike there, it caused an explosion just outside the site's protected area, although no casualties have been reported at this stage, the facility, the largest of its kind in europe, has been occupied by russian soldiers since early stages of the war, and it comes as ukraine's incursion continues into russian territory this morning. former head of counter—terrorism at the ministry of defence, major general chip chapman, told us british donated equipment is helping ukraine push back vladimir putin. >> one of the things that the offensive does is establish momentum and initiative and gives more willingness to continue to support ukraine, because what you can say previously is that they were losing slowly and initially the provision of support equalised the battlefield and now at least the battlefield and now at least the momentum and initiative is with them in a tactical sense, a biotech firm that produces an mpox vaccine is ramping up

production after a new strain has been found in europe. >> the clade b1b strain has been confirmed in sweden after first being detected in the democratic repubuc being detected in the democratic republic of congo. it's believed to be the most dangerous version found of the disease so far , found of the disease so far, official figures reveal. almost 500 people crossed the english channel yesterday. at least nine small boats made that journey following two days of no reported migrant arrivals , but reported migrant arrivals, but it does now bring the total number of migrants reaching uk waters so far this year to now, 19,000 people. the home office insists it is creating a new border security command to tackle the problem. the home secretary is promising to crack down on people, she says are pushing harmful and hateful beliefs in a new approach to fighting extremism. yvette cooperis fighting extremism. yvette cooper is launching a rapid sprint to look at how to best tackle the extremist threats, including rising radicalisation among young people online that initiative follows, of course, the violent riots across england

in recent weeks following the southport stabbings, killing three girls, 460 people have now appeared in court , including appeared in court, including more than 70 minors. well, an update on news we've been bringing you this afternoon from northern ireland. we now know that the convicted murderer, who was on the run has now been apprehended after an urgent manhunt. david mccord was sentenced to life in prison in 2004 for the murder of his girlfriend over the weekend, police have been working to trace his whereabouts. he was considered unlawfully at large, and they had issued an appeal for the prisoner to turn himself in. police have now located him in. police have now located him in the belfast area and he has been returned to prison . a don't been returned to prison. a don't swim alert has been issued for a popular devon seaside town because of a sewage leak. south west water says it can't keep up with the spill , caused by a with the spill, caused by a burst pipe at a nearby pumping station in exmouth. it has apologised, though residents say it's not good enough. they're

insisting engineers are working round the clock to fix the problem. it comes after the regulator, ofwat, announced water bills will rise by an average of £94 over the next five years to cover the cost of upgrading infrastructure. it's also been revealed that three water companies, though not including south west water, are facing a combined fine of £168 million for failings including over sewage treatment . around 30 over sewage treatment. around 30 people have been left injured after a ferris wheel caught fire at a music festival in germany . at a music festival in germany. you can see here pictures from the scene of that fire as the ride caught in flames. the scene of that fire as the ride caught in flames . festival ride caught in flames. festival organisers say 18 people are currently being treated in hospital following that blaze, though at this stage they say it's not known how it started and the european space agency's juice spacecraft will perform a world first lunar earth flyby tomorrow night, marking a critical point in its journey to

today's story shall we. pack show. and it's going so fast now extreme misogyny will be treated as terrorism for the first time under government plans to combat the radicalisation of young men onune the radicalisation of young men online home secretary yvette cooper has ordered a review of britain's counter extremism strategy with the aim of tackling violence against women and girls in the same way as islamists and far right extremism. joining me now from outside the home office is gb news reporter ray addison. to bnng news reporter ray addison. to bring us up to date on this story. ray? hello, are you there, ray? yes, you are . there there, ray? yes, you are. there you are, ray i'm having trouble getting my head around this one. so can you explain exactly how this is going to work ? this is going to work? >> well, it's an interesting one. it's got quite a few people scratching their heads. i think it's fair to say they're calling this scheme sprint, and it's being described by the home secretary as a strategic reset on how the government tackles hateful or harmful activity . hateful or harmful activity. now, that could be online. it could be comments made in the workplace . it could be something

workplace. it could be something that you've heard while you sat in a cafe or walking down the street. but it's basically anything that promotes violence or undermines democracy. now, the home office has been very keen to stress that it's going to be looking at issues such as islamist and far right extremism in the uk, but what has kind of caught people's attention is this idea of using terrorism resources to clamp down on extreme misogyny. now, of course, misogyny being the dislike, contempt or prejudice against women and girls. and again, that could be something that's been commented online, or it could be something that's been said in the classroom by your child. and under this new scheme, what we could see and what we may well see is teachers being legally required to report to the government's prevent scheme, that, of course, being the scheme that normally deals with extreme terrorism or potential people involved in terrorism or supporting terrorism, they could report

your child to prevent, if they say something that is deemed to be misogyny. so a lot of the members of the public obviously viewers and listeners to our channel saying, well , hold on a channel saying, well, hold on a minute, who decides what is extreme? who defines whether something has been misogynistic and has the uk not got enough already dealing with terror threats, genuine terror threats with a risk to life ? rather than with a risk to life? rather than policing people who may post a comment online and using resources for that. now, it shouldn't be a surprise that this is happening. it was part of the labour manifesto when they were running for election and cooper has been very keen to point out that there hasn't been an up to date countering extremism strategy from the government since 2015, so she believes that this needs to be brought in and we will see where it goes. >> ray addison thank you very much. that's ray bringing us up to date on the new misogyny as

terrorism, well , idea by the terrorism, well, idea by the government basically. now, obviously we all agree that this needs to happen, right? we've seen appalling incidents of violence against women and girls recently, and we all know the ones we're talking about. and it is a fact that a woman in this country is killed by a man on average, every three days. so something needs to be done. but is this the right way of tackling it ? is this the right way of tackling it? i'm going to come to john john oxley, political commentator on this one, as the man in the studio at the moment. what do you make of this as a man? what i mean, you know, misogyny, extreme misogyny. i'm not even quite sure what that actually even means as terrorism. >> i, i find it very difficult. i mean, i can see absolutely the risk and the danger we have there , but i'm not sure how much there, but i'm not sure how much of this is an ideology in the same way being, you know , a same way being, you know, a radical islamist is or in the same way, being radically on the far right. i think there are a

lot of men who are a danger to women, but i'm not sure how much thatis women, but i'm not sure how much that is driven by ideas and how much of more a personality thing. they are people who are prone to violence and actually we see a lot of overlap, you know , a lot of the people we see know, a lot of the people we see arrested for islamic terrorism, for example, or far right terrorism, have a history of violence against women. and i think it's more often that just violent men are prone to attack women for various reasons. and there's not really as much something coherent. and ideology behind it. and so that makes it quite hard to tackle by putting it in this category. >> i mean, this is i mean, yvette cooper used the phrase hateful beliefs. i mean, is this sort of like the government monitoring our thoughts potentially. >> and again, we've had this with all sorts of same issues of extremism. you know , where do we extremism. you know, where do we draw the line? you know, people are entitled to believe all sorts of things. we disagree with when they get to the point of promoting violence, encouraging violence. that's obviously wrong. but how much

are we going to go behind that? and when we look at these prevent when you say stupid things in class, you know, i've been a 15 year old boy in a classroom of teenagers, and you do say grotty things about girls , do say grotty things about girls, but you grow out of it, hopefully. and you know , hopefully. and you know, reporting someone for saying stupid things is quite uneasy when you know, 99% of the time that's not going to lead to violence. it'sjust that's not going to lead to violence. it's just someone being a, you know, cocky little ike. and you know, they learn their lessons as they grow up. >> that's a really important point, actually, isn't it, scarlet? i mean, it's like as if teachers haven't got enough on their plates and actually with doing their job of teaching, they now have to spy on. we all know what teenage boys can be like. >> they don't, they don't. this this is not what this is about. this is about saying that actually there is a real problem with male violence and you're right, a lot of people, people who are accused of far right and islamic crimes, violent crimes

are often wife beaters and have got to think, this is this is not about policing the classroom, but there is a problem in some classrooms because of people like andrew tate, who is a serious misogynist. and i mean, he is at the moment in romania being accused of trafficking women. so, i mean , we're talking about so, i mean, we're talking about not a nice person. and that actually women teachers find it very, very difficult dealing with with the boys because they they say, what do you know? you don't know anything. i don't know anything. but that isn't a police matter. what, what what this is saying is, i mean, for a start, the whole thing about prevent, which is about teachers actually saying, oh, i'm worried that i've got a sort of literally a ten year old, you know, islamic radical in my classroom or a right wing radical which which i don't. i really don't think should be

happening. and, and it's something that that went wrong because what it began was, was, was actually the state and, and the muslims getting together to try and stop people from going to syria. that's what that's how it started. and then it got out of control. so it's not about saying, oh, you know, you're a terrorist if you say anything against women, but it is saying this is a real problem, that, you know, the hatred against women has gone up. and what are we going to do about it ? we going to do about it? >> interesting. you mentioned the, the, the islam side of this because a lot of you are getting in touch and you know, please do. it's very interesting what you've got to say on this. claire, and this is a message from nick. this is one example i'm picking out here, will yvette cooper target the religion of islam with her misogynist terrorism act, that does seem to be a problem with women within that culture. what do you make to that sort of comment? >> well, i mean, nick, thanks

for watching. and, you know, that's clearly, you know, an important issue for nick. and i would actually go deeper than that. i would say sharia law that. i would say sharia law thatis that. i would say sharia law that is operated in this country is i have issues with it. and i think we all should be having issues with it, and i know more and be monitoring of it. i don't like the police state. i don't like the police state. i don't like the police state. i don't like the nanny state. i don't like the nanny state. i don't like the nanny state. i don't like the state being able to police us in terms of what we're thinking, what we're posting or anything like that. i think it's gone beyond parody . now, we know gone beyond parody. now, we know that crimes against women on pubuc that crimes against women on public transport have gone up 50%. we had the report that was the report was on. that was last week . so the report was on. that was last week. so women the report was on. that was last week . so women really are quite week. so women really are quite perilous. and i would say sometimes actually, a loss in society. and where have we gone then where is feminism actually got us? where has it helped us? where has it underpinned us? because clearly there is a need. we've got women dying at the hands of violent males, often people that they know often

ex—partners or their partners. every three days we're supposed to be a civilised country, for heaven's sake, and yet we are at risk. >> can i just ask what you mean by where has feminism got us? are you saying that feminism has got us to this situation where there is anger against women? >> has feminism actually demarcated men ? demarcated men? >> john, i'm sorry for the whole of mankind. obviously but i mean, it's got a point. >> i think what we have seen, i think not so much with feminism as such, but with a lot of the changes in terms of the economy, in terms of jobs over the last 30 or 40 years that have coincided with a lot of development of women's rights. i think you have had a changing role for men, but i think most people and most feminists would argue that, you know , feminism argue that, you know, feminism is as much about liberating the role for men and giving them more flexibility than saying,

oh, i'm i'm more of a feminist than you are. >> come on, that's not what he's saying. what he's saying is, i didn't say that john was saying that. i'm just saying in general. and the fact that some men don't want to offer their seat to women on tubes or public transport. >> but the thing i would say as well actually just picking up, you know, one of the things we don't bring into this discussion quite often when we talk about male violence is men are far more frequently the victims of male violence than women are, you know, something like three times as many men are murdered than women every year. and it is almost exclusively by men. and so when i think when we look at the role of violence in society, yes, there is a very clear men committing violence against women problem and we need to solve that. but there is also a bigger problem of just violent men, and that's something that has to be tackled as part of this. actually. >> you're right. i mean, as the mother of both. i was much more worried about when my son was

out. that he would get tied up into something and, you know, we lived in central london, and that i didn't feel he was always sensible . i mean, because he was sensible. i mean, because he was young, right? sensible. i mean, because he was young, right ? whereas my young, right? whereas my daughter, it was it was straightforward, you know . would straightforward, you know. would she be attacked on the street? unlikely. would a young man be attacked on the street? more likely . and so. so actually, likely. and so. so actually, what we're talking about, we are talking about violent men. and we're also talking about the problem of young men, particularly sort of between 14 and 25 and, and how how i mean, you know , they need youth clubs. you know, they need youth clubs. they need i mean, i mean, they need intervention to give them something. and like you, i mean, i don't blame feminism. i think feminism, i was going to say scholar as a feminist, i was going to ask you know, i think i think, you know, i mean, i think what feminism has meant that actually men can look after their children much better.

they're much you have a much more caring side. i mean, i think the problem of demasking emasculating is, is, is unemployment is losing the jobs that give them. i mean, that that's there's that side. but i mean , what we need is we need we mean, what we need is we need we need interventions into young men because that's where it's particularly dangerous. >> it's very interesting going back to that point. and this is ak just messaging. chivalry is dead when it comes to ladies first. nowadays i'm old school, but you risk abuse giving up your seat to woke young student girls. so there is a lot of anger out there . anger out there. >> i see, i get given, given seats on the tube an awful lot, and i'm always very grateful that everybody just give me a seat. >> mostly women give up their seats for me, which is interesting, right? we've run out of time, but thank you. please do keep your messages coming in. it's a huge debate. lots of people got lots to say. and i will get to more of them, as soon as i can, now for all

the best analysis and opinion on that story, please go to our website, which is @gbnews com now i'm dawn neesom. this is gb news. it's the weekend indeed, and there's lots more coming up on today's show. gb news confirms more than 19,000 small boat migrants have crossed the channel. this year, we'll be heanng channel. this year, we'll be hearing from our homeland security editor on that story. all of that and much more to come. this is gb news, britain's news channel. don't go too far. we'll you very

soon. hello. welcome back to the weekend with me. dawn neesom. have you got a nice cuppa in front of you? or maybe even a glass of wine? it's a sunday afternoon, after all. now, and i'm not at all looking at the direction of one of my panellists. it's a sunday. come on now. after a busy day on the channel yesterday with at least nine small boats are carrying 450 migrants making the perilous

journey that makes it more than 5500 illegal migrants since labour came to power six weeks ago, and more than 19,000 this yeah ago, and more than 19,000 this year. how's that smashing those gangs going a home and security edhon gangs going a home and security editor, mark white, breaks down what all this means for us. >> there are probably a slightly fewer coming across than we would have expected. now that we're in the height of summer. but there have been some days where it's been a bit windy in the channel including this week. so i was in dover earlier in the week on the cliff top. there reporting on another milestone that 5000 migrants had crossed the channel illegally since labour came to power. and then we had 2 or 3 days of windy weather, and it's only now this weekend that things have calmed down enough to allow more boats to come. and sure enough, we heard just after 11:00 this morning, the border force vessel range ranger coming in with 50

odd migrants. it returned again with another 40 migrants. then the border force vessel defender was in as well, with 135 migrants on board and so it continued throughout the day with our , producer down in dover with our, producer down in dover estimating that at least nine small boats came into uk waters, carrying more than 450 people, taking the total for the year to now more than 19,000. and of course , that milestone as well course, that milestone as well to 5500 since labour came to power, promising to smash the gangs , they scrapped the rwanda gangs, they scrapped the rwanda deal on the first day in office. it was, according to sir keir starmer, a gimmick. instead, what he wants to do is go after the people smugglers . but that's the people smugglers. but that's going to take some time. they haven't even managed to appoint a new senior officer in charge of this new border security command. and that's what over

six weeks since labour came to power. so they've got some way to go to achieve this goal of supposedly smashing the gangs. and while they don't do that, then all of the time when the weather improves , we'll get boat weather improves, we'll get boat after boat load coming to the uk. >> thank you very much , mark. >> thank you very much, mark. sobering stuff, isn't it? now let's see what my panel make of this. former labour advisor, scarlett mccgwire and journalist claire muldoon are still with me. the young man we've got rid of him. he ran screaming out of the studio. we have that effect on people now. okay, so we've just heard what mark was saying there. i mean, smashing the gangs.i there. i mean, smashing the gangs . i mean, labour came in gangs. i mean, labour came in talking tough. they were going to raid nail bars. i think at one point. doesn't seem much of that going on. doesn't seem to be working so far. claire, what do you make of this? >> well, the other worrying fact is the fact that the government were wanting to set up new border security command. but are the border security officers not going on strike soon? very possibly. you know, so they seem to be running before they can

walk. contrary to what scarlett said in during mark's report there, i had heard that the rwanda policy was actually it did work in terms of keeping people away. it did act as a deterrent. >> it seemed to act as a deterrent. in ireland, there were some. >> and now and now the word is that it's not that because it's been scrapped. everyone thinks they're safe , just still to they're safe, just still to come. and i'd also be interested and i'd really quite like to know the percentage increase on those people coming over in the boats. year on year. i don't think that's a statistic that we've heard or indeed that we have, because, i mean , it's all have, because, i mean, it's all bluster at the moment. yes, 19,000 people. so far this year have come over. but is that or is that increased on the year? i don't know, i'm not sure, but i think it is clear and concise guidelines and guidance from the government. it's going to be rampant. >> and scarlett, this is something people do care about and keep your messages coming in. >> they do care about and what we should be doing is, is yes,

you can do border command and try and stop people. but the real thing that we should be processing people, i mean, i say this over and over again is that is that we are spending £8 million a day putting people up in hotels, you know, ten years ago, right. people would be processed within a month and, and they would complain if they were left for six weeks. we're now talking years, but we didn't have as many coming over then, did we? >> that's the thing. it's numbers. >> no, because. because instead of spending the money on hotels, we should be spending it on people being processed. i mean, that's that's what you just get in more people and if they know they're going to be sent back, if they're just migrants, then they won't come in. the albanians, the albanians, hold on.the albanians, the albanians, hold on. the albanians started coming oven on. the albanians started coming over. we heard that there were 40% of the people in the boats were albanians. a deal was done with albania. we don't get

albanians anymore. albanians? no they go straight back. and so what you have to do is you have to be really, really tough and you have to say, we will take refugees, we will not take economic migrants. refugees, we will not take economic migrants . okay? economic migrants. okay? >> i mean, i'm glad that you know, that that sounds all plausible. and it's very it sounds fantastic. and i wish that did happen. but the reality is it's not. this is the modern day slave trade. there's a huge business model out there. people are buying their way into this country and i would far rather they didn't. i would far rather they didn't. i would far rather the message was, look, please don't come. this is not, you know, the grass is not greener here. we're we're practically at the max in terms of our own pubuc the max in terms of our own public infrastructure. we can't cope with anymore. we can't deal with anymore. and it's costing us too much money at the expense of british citizens. and it truly is. >> and a lot of you are saying that as well . this is a message that as well. this is a message from gary, thank you. good afternoon. let's stop talking about a uk border force. we have about a uk border force. we have a border water taxi service, which only operates a one way

journey to france to dover. more chance of shergar running at next year's derby than labour stopping the boats. >> well, i mean, look , if you >> well, i mean, look, if you have, if you have proper processing so that people know they're going to be sent back , they're going to be sent back, then they stop coming. >> i mean, the reason that they're coming is because nothing happens. they come over. right? and, and they were coming over with, with rwanda and the strangest thing was, was i had a young refugee turn up at my house who was going to be sent to rwanda and. okay. and she was she was in jarlsberg and they they got her bail and she came to me. she was a christian who was going to whose parents were already in jail in eritrea. she moved to ethiopia with her aunt. they then started jailing christians in ethiopia. i mean, this was she was a 22 year old classic refugee, right? but actually, we shouldn't have been going for her. we should have been going for these people who

are just economic migrants and until the until that message is sent out and until people are being processed , nothing. being processed, nothing. >> do you think the rwanda scheme would have put her off making the journey across ? making the journey across? >> no. i mean, i mean, i mean, she just felt she was unlucky that she was that she literally she was she was in a hostel in portsmouth and they put her in, in jarlsberg and said, we're going to send you on the first flight to rwanda. and you just think, what are they doing? sending somebody who is a classic refugee who was in fear of persecution when we know, we know we've got lots of people in the hostels and in the hotels who are economic migrants, who are not being processed. >> the problem we've got here, claire, is, is that all the solutions that labour should be doing, and no one can disagree that we should be processing genuine refugees fairly. >> take time. >> take time. >> well it does. it takes time and it also takes manpower, and the civil service at the moment is broken because so many of

them are working from home. look at the published statistics. >> what fred has just said. yeah. but hold on. >> they're not working from home. if they're assessing migrants. i mean, the people who are working from home are the people. >> there's no one assessing migrants at the moment. it would appean migrants at the moment. it would appear. and that's what has to begin to happen. >> and that's what has to begin to happen. i mean, that's what we need. we need lots and lots more people. we need to take the money from the hotels and actually put them into processing. >> unfortunately, ladies, we have run out of time on that debate as well. but please do keep your messages coming . lots keep your messages coming. lots of very important points and i will read them out as soon as i can. i'm dawn neesom to gb news and there's loads more coming up on today's show, including why are young people feeling more isolated than older people? comes as new report shows a whopping 70% of people aged 18 to 24 have reported feeling lonely. but first, here's the news with saint francis . news with saint francis. >> dawn, thank you and very good

people have crossed the channel, i think, at least for almost 4500 of those have been in the last month or so since keir starmer took over. so we're asking do you think their approach is going we're looking at some of their policies as to whether you think they're a false. so for example, they're a false. so for example, the fact that the winter fuel allowance is likely to be removed, but then could it push pensioners into going for another support package which could then end up costing the government more? same thing with vat on private schools. if people leave all the private schools then they won't make the 1.7 billion. so we're asking about some of their policies as to whether they're false economy. and very quickly i've got an incredible guest. >> emma weber will be live talking to me at just after 5:00 about her views on some of the moves that have been put forward to try and counter knife crime that's coming up. >> brilliant show. thank you very much. now that's happening at 3:00 straight after this show. now, a new report shows young people are more likely to feel lonely than older people. we normally think it's other way

around, don't we? but it's not 70% of people aged 18 to 24 have reported feeling lonely , reported feeling lonely, compared to 32% of the over 75. so we're asking, why are young people feeling more isolated? joining me now is former member of the youth parliament zahra khan. zahra thank you very much for joining us this afternoon. zahra, this is a new report by the centre for social justice. 70% of people aged 18 to 24 admit to feeling lonely. at least some of the time. what do you what do you think the reasons are for this? >> thank you for having me. yeah. >> this report really does hit to home me when i read it. i just basically thought back to the lockdown that we faced dunng the lockdown that we faced during covid, and i'm just going to speak from a personal point of view. when the schools closed, that was a real struggle for many young people like myself, because , you know, our myself, because, you know, our whole lives changed. we had to, you know, stay away from like that face to face social

interaction that we should be having growing up as young people , we became so reliant on people, we became so reliant on using technology and i feel like, we just became so used to just sort of interacting behind a screen, which just makes it so it made it so much harder to go back to a real life, and having that face to face interaction like, is and i still feel like it's something that we all struggle with, when i speak with my peers and that was really something that i had to campaign about when i was a youth mp, we looked at how can we, you know, deliver better resources to students in schools and i really don't feel like there was enough support put in place for young people to really acknowledge this issue. so i am quite surprised that this report is only coming out now as zara just, just quickly, researchers have suggested that older people

are partially less likely to feel lonely because they engage more actually physically talking to other people, spending more time with other people. >> you know, i get what happened dunng >> you know, i get what happened during the pandemic and lockdown, but the amount of time and i don't mean to sound patronising, but the amount of time that young people spend on their phones and on social media. do you think that's something to do with it? as well? >> yeah, absolutely. i think technology can be such a powerful and dangerous tool. whilst it helps us to stay connected with people, it you can easily become addicted. i was , i used to use social media was, i used to use social media a lot and i feel like that really, led to my loneliness . really, led to my loneliness. because as i say, we became so reliant on just hiding behind a screen. we don't know that this was the way, you know, to go out and speak to people face to face. so, it's still something that i, i and my peers still struggle with, you know, having those direct to face face conversations with people, even like when you're going to a job

interview, everything is like you're having that zoom call, of course. but i just feel like society has not really encouraged people to go , you encouraged people to go, you know, and meet people in person. now when we're talking about older people, i feel like , you older people, i feel like, you know, technology was not really something that they had grown up with. so i feel like maybe they are more at an advantage now with their social skills because they have that support network already put in place that young people may not have had when they were growing up. so it just makes it even harder for to us reach out. >> okay, zara, thank you very much. that's zara khan there, joining us to talk about why younger people are feeling more lonely than older. thank you very much, zara. i'm going to come to you first on this one. when i had this conversation with my mum, who's in her 80s earlier on, she goes, well, yeah, okay. older people, we do feel lonely , but we don't feel lonely, but we don't complain about it as much. >> yeah, i could believe that. do you think? absolutely. and also. yeah. and also the older we get, the actual more work we've actually done. so i would

say to these young gen z—ers, forget about your oat milk , forget about your oat milk, forget about your oat milk, forget about your oat milk, forget about swiping right or swiping left. what's making you feel uncomfortable or feel lonely is yourself. you need to get over yourself. get a job. get out there. stop working from home. stop complaining and just get on with it. interact with people. even if it's just the bus driver or whatever. when you get on the bus, say good morning. i mean, you need to make the effort. it's not all me, me, me, me, me. you know , interesting. >> you look at my mum. yeah. in the nicest possible way to both of you. >> but look, you've got the iphone, the imac. what does it all begin with? i it's so people. it's all person centric at the moment for these gen words. >> scarlett. >> scarlett. >> no, i think it's really tough being young. >> oh, for heaven's sake, scarlett i think so. >> i remember thinking once i'd got through school, everything would be fine. and then you get into the real world and actually, nothing changes, right? >> no. that's true. >> no. that's true. >> and it's not. and it is

difficult. and you feel that that that that you should be having lots of friends. you should be going out. you should be doing all of this. and maybe it's not quite happening. so i do understand the loneliness . i do understand the loneliness. i think, you know that it's about learning about long, long friendship and everything. whereas when you're older, you've got there and of course it's terrible. i mean, what's terrible and what i mean, young people are getting over their first heartbreak, which is ghastly . i first heartbreak, which is ghastly. i mean, god, i remember mine. but the thing about older people is they're getting over the death of their spouse. they're things like that. and it's really , really tough. so it's really, really tough. so it's really, really tough. so it's tough for both of them. right but i think to say that it's easy for young is just wrong. okay. >> unfortunately we've run out of time. very strong opinions from our panellists. what do you think? who do you agree with her, i'm dawn neesom gb news. next up, it's showbiz with the lovely daniel mason. we'll be getting the latest from around the world, so don't go too far. we'll see you
