5:04 am
through it. the daily telegraph violent criminals allowed to just say sorry and sven—goran eriksson on the front cover there, as if many of them revealed staggering rise in anxiety among children in the guardian. the times police have given up on punishing shoplifters. the daily mirror. don't be sorry. smile. it's been fantastic. the daily express, farage warns of shocks to come in the labour budget and finally, the daily star. our last chance to stop psycho killer robots. i bet we don't take it those were your front pages. take it those were your front pages . so are take it those were your front pages. so are we going to start with the cover of the daily telegraph? >> so the telegraph, they've got a picture of sven—goran eriksson, who sadly passed away aged 76, and they've also got a story about violent criminals being allowed to just say sorry, including sex offenders as well. sex offenders and knife people who've committed knife crime are
5:05 am
among thousands, 150,000 to be exact, who who will have no police record. they'll just be given these things called community resolutions when they're when they're caught, when they admit to their crime. so it's a sort of informal agreement between the police and the person involved in, i mean, the person involved in, i mean, the definition says a low level offence or anti—social behaviour, but obviously these are more serious and this could be part of the you know, obviously the government is running out of space in jails. i mean, it's kind of already run out of space in jails because now they want to arrest people for, you know, a sharing memes or, you know, saying things onune or, you know, saying things online or shouting at a police dog or facebook posts or, yeah, waving a waving an england flag in the wrong country, which is england. you know, things, things like that. so, i don't know , it feels like. i mean, who know, it feels like. i mean, who was it? alexander? the guy who wrote gulag archipelago, said solzhenitsyn. yeah, i wasn't going to try that, he said. he said, you know, a communist government frees criminals and criminalises and jails political dissidents. so i think that's kind of what we're seeing here.
5:06 am
>> well, yes, that is a i mean, and friend nick, who calls it a narco tyranny. that's right. where you try and distinguish between people who might be a threat to the to state, the regime, and people who are just common or garden criminals. i don't think we're trying to work out which is which any more at all. >> we're just saying there's no room, there's no room for them at all. we're giving twice as many community resolutions as actual criminal charges. now and, you know, our prisons are full, but our hearts still have space. we're accepting apologies from say sorry to the person you stabbed and molested, you know, shake hands. that's all sorted. yeah, i'm wondering whether we try giving them gifts . maybe try giving them gifts. maybe have i kisses? i might do it. >> yeah, i suppose to be serious. the question is, just how violent are they? and just. i mean, are they attempted stabbings? i mean, surely somebody who's actually stabbed somebody who's actually stabbed somebody must surely not be allowed to . allowed to. >> just an attempted stabbing is a bit worrying, don't you? >> yes. i do, i mean, they're probably much more violent than somebody who's shared a couple of pretty tame memes on facebook. >> and yeah, there doesn't seem to be any parity. and, you know,
5:07 am
if everybody who shared memes, you know, from the left and from the right went to jail, then fine. if nick lowles from hope not hate if he went to jail for sharing inflammatory demand. you know this hoax, that accusations. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> it shouldn't be the offenders saying sorry, it should be the government saying sorry for not locking people up. >> so the difference, they would say, is that they're trying to extinguish this fire before it catches the idea that people can post social media, whereas i suppose violent criminals are considered to be isolated and, you know, they're not part of a wave. they're not part. i mean, i'm not saying i agree with this, but that's the argument. >> i mean, some of the violent criminals that have been released, like there's lawson, natty. so he was involved in the machete killing of a 14 year old boy, and he's been let out of jail six months after serving six months in jail. so that people who, you know , shared people who, you know, shared memes can can go into jail for much longer. it doesn't make sense to me. >> i mean, it does seem statistically the way in which jail works is it locks people up, it keeps them off the streets, stops them re—offending. all the other stuff is commentary. >> yeah. kerry what are the express leading with? farage
5:08 am
warns of shocks to come in labour budget. i don't know why this is particularly about farage, because i thought quite a lot of people are warning about these shocks coming up which express almost certainly. well, of course. yes. that's why, but it's still it's a general warning, isn't it? at the same time, labour are saying that this isn't some horror show that's coming, but but they are warning us of ten years of pain for the uk with tax rises and so on, and they of course are justifying this with the, the black hole which has become a mantra, this kind of vague metaphor, which is not a very good metaphor because a whole, you know, a hole in the finances, in the fiscal arrangements, you fill a hole , arrangements, you fill a hole, you don't fill a black hole. that would be stupid. >> a black hole can't be something that can't be filled. it's just super massive. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> no, you can't look you can't look past the event horizon. so you know, you don't know where your money's going. so actually, maybe it's a good. maybe it's a good analogy for the labour government. >> a wormhole to a better future, though. >> well, they're certainly filling it up with everything they can. there's going to be
5:09 am
there's going to be like £18 billion more spent on asylum. asylum seekers or giving citizenship and train drivers and so on. >> they're paying out. it should be in a nice comfort for the pensioners who can't afford to heat their homes. this is, i think, at least the train drivers are being sorted out. >> nice warm cabins as well i do. i mean maybe you could make pensioners train drivers. they don't have to do anything very demanding, do they. once they're in the wheel, them in, they won't even know they're doing it. but they should see. >> well, the interesting thing is with his speech where he's, he's kind of tying this in with as a metaphor with people who cleaned up after the riots. yeah. and this is starmer saying, i feel pride in the people who cleaned up the streets, rebuilt walls and repaired the damage. and i thought the obvious parallels and imagine the pride will feel as a nation when after the hard work, clearing up the mess and he's basically trying to take that. yeah to say that's, you know, it's like i've seen people sweeping. so i thought some sweeping. so i thought some sweeping changes to the tax system, it's like it is like trying to create a really unsuitable metaphor as though we've all had some kind of riotous party for the last 14 years, the last 14 years under
5:10 am
the tory government by the own accusations of labour have been of austerity. >> that was the main complaint made against them that they were too concerned with the with the deficit and not sufficiently concerned with spraying money all over the place and now they get in and go, oh, there's no money anywhere. you know, it's like, well, i mean, it's either been a massive party. the suspicion is they're trying to use this metaphor for a black hole or, you know, damage. we're going to have to work to repair it in order to justify spending plans, which they have, which would be deeply unpopular when people actually register what they're going to spend the money on. right. and also, i think ratcheting up taxes isn't going to be as palatable as it used to be, because people who pay the most tax just aren't using the services. >> people, you know, 20 years ago, rich people would use the nhs. now rich people are all moving across the private sector and same with schools and everything else. so you know, they're not going to be moving out of the private sector for schools. >> i should think in the next year now that the vat has come in. yeah. >> but overall, you know, rich people aren't getting anything back from public services. they're not getting anything
5:11 am
back from the tax they pay. >> no they're not they're not even allowed to stand on the beaches with shotguns. >> i think it's disgraceful and it's easy for them to move as well. >> those were the days. >> those were the days. >> the cover of the guardian. quickly, please, leo, we have to sneak through this one. >> so the guardian reveals the staggering rise in anxiety among children. i mean, maybe they're reading the guardian. yeah, it seems to whip up enough fear, but over 200,000 young people have been been referred to mental health services and basically just need to put down their smartphones and go outside. but i guess we've not left the country in a good state for young people. there's, you know, there's a lot of as well as social media, which is a new thing which induces anxiety. i mean, i grew up in a sort of, you know, culturally homogeneous , you know, culturally homogeneous, safe country. it's called scotland. but but now, you know, we've got terrorism, grooming, gangs, crime, rising knife crime, especially among young people. we've got this gender nonsense in schools. so now kids, you know, don't even know if they're a girl or at least, you know, before there was this sort of cartesian, you know, absolute truth that you are a boy. now, you don't even have
5:12 am
that. and you've got critical race theory teaching people to hate their heritage and hate their hate their country and hate hate themselves based on the colour of their skin. so it's not it's not a good time to be young. i mean, it's interesting. >> the guardian would, of course, say that all the anxiety comes from the opposite. they would say that the anxiety comes from gender fascism, with people imposing gender rules on young people. and, and they would say that it was climate change and they would say that climate change, race riots, you know, those are the things that are causing anxiety. but one way or another, certainly we do create another, certainly we do create a cloud of anxiety about it. >> but we have spent decades now participation medals and telling them that they all look perfect and everyone's beautiful and so on. nothing is making any kind of difference, is it? and we're also, whilst mental illness, of course, is something important we should discuss and to help people, but we also sort of glamorised it to some extent. and i kind of blame the blame the edinburgh festival for that really more than anything. and i think there's some good shows up there, but there's an awful lot of if you haven't got some neurodiversity. >> then i went to see a few shows and some were good and some were bad. but you're absolutely right, they almost all started on that premise.
5:13 am
what's my what's my quirk? >> let's do my what's wrong with me? show >> yeah, i mean, it's almost like this year's must have accessory, isn't it ? it has been accessory, isn't it? it has been for a few years. >> and also, none of the genuinely autistic comedians did a show about their autism. it was all these perfectly socially normalised comedians doing it very quickly in 20s. >> if you wouldn't mind, on the daily star 20s, i is going to kill us. >> our last chance to stop psycho killer robots , they're psycho killer robots, they're forever warning us about this. and maybe that will be true, but to hell with it. let's see what happens. and maybe they'll be really nice. maybe they'll solve world poverty. >> well, if it does come to an end, it'll be short and sharp. i imagine. anyway. inefficient, right? the ai apocalypse. yes. yeah. much, much more efficient than hopefully they'll know what they're doing. that's the front pages. they're doing. that's the front pages . come they're doing. that's the front pages. come and join after the break for german deportations. and low expectations. we'll
5:14 am
5:15 am
5:16 am
5:17 am
and welcome back to headliners with me, simon evans, leo kearse and kiri marx. leo, we have the telegraph. olaf out loud. schultz. that's my nickname for him . oh, laugh out loud. him. oh, laugh out loud. schultz, german premier , i schultz, german premier, i assume he's the premier has promised to slam the stable door after this week's diversity in solingen. >> that's right. yes. so, olaf scholz, the german premier, is not the. not the snowman from frozen has pledged to speed up deportations after a suspected islamist knife attack in the
5:18 am
city of solingen. they say suspected, but it seemed pretty clear cut. 26 year old syrian with suspected links to the islamic state group who did actually go claim it , so, you actually go claim it, so, you know, they've they've said or somebody representing them has said that he carried it out on their behalf, stabbed, many people, i think 11 people at a festival festival of diversity in germany. >> not as part of the scheduled entertainment. >> that's the worst thing about it. if it started happening, you might think it's one of the one of the performances. >> oh, here we go. this is a little sony lumiere about. yeah. >> it's like, oh, they're showing the all the impact of diversity. yeah but yeah. so basically i mean it's horrific. three people, three people dead. and there are regional elections this week. and i think it's in the east of germany, where the afd are doing really well. so it's in saxony and thuringia. so the afd, who are the sort of , a the afd, who are the sort of, a more right wing, they're called far right. but, you know, every
5:19 am
time i see far right and then i look at what their policies are, it seems that's sensible when people are getting stabbed. >> 70s conservatives. yeah. >> 70s conservatives. yeah. >> yeah. it's like people are getting stabbed in the neck. maybe we should do something about it. you know what i mean? so. so this this is obviously threatening olaf scholz and the centrist parties. so he is saying he's going to speed up deportations. so we're seeing this across europe. sweden actually has net immigration how. >> now. >> they've started emigrating. and just i don't even know if you know about this, but it does seem the afd is alternative for deutschland, isn't it? have a much stronger base in east germany. yeah, which is interesting in itself because most of the ex—soviet nations are the ones that are particularly sceptical about the benefits of immigration. yeah you do notice that. and of course, that's within germany as well. even though germany is unified and it's just one country, there's a strong regional differentiation between those who have any interest in. yeah. >> and also whether you consider them far right or not, they're
5:20 am
still being fed. you know, even if you think this is the far right, you're not having the conversation or this conversation or this conversation , with in a more conversation, with in a more reasonable way than what can happen. you know, schulz, his nickname in germany is , schulz nickname in germany is, schulz or matt. you know, that it's just because he's he's very robotic in his demeanour. he's. oh, is he he's , like unruffled, oh, is he he's, like unruffled, which is why it's interesting. he's quite ruffled over this and yes, deportations and also eastern. but weapons controls and so on. and and there was a video of the guy who did the stabbing who said, beforehand, he said it was intended to carry out reprisals for massacres in the middle east and beyond, which isn't very specific, really, where the beyond is, like everywhere . mars. well, like everywhere. mars. well, mars. yeah. the whole every everything you can imagine of cosmic justice. >> we have to move on. kerry. sorry, but we've got to catch up telegraph again. liu an unusually relatable attitude to crime from the met, if somewhat short of actual condemnation. >> so the metropolitan police has said it is tired of seeing crime scenes at the notting hill carnival after three people, including a mother, were stabbed on sunday. so the 32 year old
5:21 am
mother was rushed to hospital with life threatening injuries after she was stabbed in front of her child at the festival in west london, and 15 officers were also assaulted and 90 arrests were made and it's interesting that this seems to be the mate actually speaking out against the establishment, speaking out against the labour party and saying like, listen, we're the people on the front line. we have to deal with this. we don't really like doing it. and you know, do we really need to have this, this, this festival? what's interesting as well is how the establishment report on it compared to how they report on, you know, say, for example, there was a sort of patriots rally and there's been a couple of them over the over the summer that passed off pretty much without incident. and the establishment, you know, were like far right bigots march evil thugs . and whereas this one evil thugs. and whereas this one is described, as they said , is described, as they said, somebody's been there's been three stabbings, but it's mostly peaceful. and it's like, no, it wasn't peaceful for the people stabbed. >> it's interesting the way they gather the statistics as well. i read a piece today by our friend
5:22 am
sam ashworth hayes in the telegraph explaining, and this was to no great surprise that the way they gather the statistics about the size of the event to begin with is largely based on the amount of people who appear in front of saint john's ambulance and so on. they have no idea how many people actually are attending the carnival in fact, it would be very hard to say so anyway, so we're demonstrations. >> we are now we're using aerial photos and using methods of counting with the with the notting hill carnival. >> they have historically based the figures and estimates on how many people attend based on how they can't move away from the historical method and say, there's a better way now. well, really, i think part of the problem is because they have, you know, historically speaking, if you had like a million people and you have three stabbings in london, you go, well, that's that's pretty much par for the course anyway, right? i mean, that's like sadiq khan has done so much to bring up the level of that argument. >> of course, we're talking about 1 million to 2 million people, which, you know, you would get those kind of figures. there you go. >> so you're saying 1 million to 2 million? i mean that's that that's quite a variance. yes, it is. >> yeah. i'm going roughly
5:23 am
somewhere between southampton and birmingham. even if it's half a million, that's quite a lot. that's quite a lot of people right. yeah. >> there's not anything like that many . that many. >> okay. i saw i saw some of the pictures today and it does look like you know, the streets just packed with thousands and thousands of people. but it's interesting, the queue for the jerk chicken. but the but but of course. and there's lots of diversity of knives. yeah going on and so many different shapes. but as you're about to move on, aren't you? >> i think this is the first time the met have really spoken out against the against the government and said, you know, listen, we're kind of a bit tired of it. >> we're tired of policing this nonsense and also getting twerked at staying with the telegraph. kerry, a little pre—debate argy bargy over hot mics, although not the way round, you might expect, >> yeah, hot mic sounds fun, doesn't it? it sounds like a kind of game, but it's not what you think it is. trump threatens to skip the debate after harris team demands hot mics. so what's interesting here is that the biden administration were against the mics being turned on. they didn't want to give give that opportunity to trump. and now kamala and her team want it the other way around because
5:24 am
they're hoping to trip him up they're hoping to trip him up the hill accidentally say something silly. so these are a load of games going on at the same time, trump is saying that he doesn't particularly want to be with, a do this on abc news because they're biased. and these, these are all games backwards and forwards. the truth is, it'd be interesting to see this. i hope it does happen because we don't know anything about kamala. we know we know kamala as she was a vice president and former senator of california. but that person has vanished, being replaced by this new kamala who's all happy and perfect and going to change america into the happiest place in the world. and joy in the morning. we're looking at some interviews with people at the democratic convention who are just they're just zombies. they're just they don't have any if they're asked about her policies, they've got nothing to say at the moment other than she's going to make it happy and america is going to be happy. >> watched a, watched a number of clips. i didn't watch the whole speeches, but chris cuomo, whole speeches, but chris cuomo, who seems to have had a bit of a sort of waking up and embracing in the last couple of years, having been quite a sort of democratic mouthpiece, was incredibly cynical about the whole process and cynical in particular about claims that the
5:25 am
democrats are the people of the party, of the, you know, the common man, and they're going to stop all this kind of corporate gouging. it's like, take a look up there. they pay $500,000 a day for those suites. you think ? day for those suites. you think? yeah, yeah. very funny. i mean, you're absolutely right. it is interesting tactically that i thought it did actually play to it helped trump that his mic the hot mic thing is his mic goes quiet while biden is speaking. he can't interrupt biden. and i think they did that because they were worried that trump would easily destabilise biden, that they would knock him off course and biden would forget where he was. but actually it was so unnecessary to do that. and it just gave biden enough rope to hang himself. >> yeah, and kamala has been really effective campaigning against trump. she's got this. there's this line that's been fed to all the media agencies. you see them all repeating it that trump is weird and he, you know, sort of gives them the ick, which is completely moronic, but very effective. and trump doesn't know how to deal with it. he's standing there going like, i'm not weird. you can ask
5:26 am
anybody. i'm not weird. i'm really normal. i'm a normal guy. and it's like he's being particularly falling for it, isn't he? >> i mean, they particularly hit vance with that and then they realised it was working so well. they just kind of rolled it out against everyone and they kind of go, you're weird. you want to you're kind of weird. in my bedroom, you're weird. you're trying to get my kid to school and you're like, you're the one who's got drag queens in their kids. anyway. bma faces a mutiny in the times against an anti cash review tabled by a man who identifies as a dolphin. i was interested to see. >> so this is the british medical association, which is the, you know, the union for, for doctors , but its members are for doctors, but its members are resigning in revolt over the bma's stance on transgender children. so the bma is tearing itself apart. the bma formally rejected the cass review, which was a review that said, you know, maybe we shouldn't, give drugs and puberty blockers and hormones to children and then you know, cut their bits off. maybe, you know, there are some
5:27 am
unforeseen consequences that we need to look into before we do that, which, you know, a drunk guy in wetherspoons could have told you instead of getting a review to do it. but, you know, it's just common sense. but now you know, the bma has come out and rejected that. but it turns out that they had this sort of almost a secret vote that passed as official bma policy. but they've got 200,000 members that weren't involved in that vote. so it was just a small body of members who did this and then passed it off. and obviously, a lot of the medical establishment don't think that we should be drugging and maiming children. >> yeah. did you spot the man dolphin? you didn't get him. he's in there. he's halfway down. >> who's who's the dolphin? >> who's who's the dolphin? >> there's a man who's called dolphin. he's called dolphin is dolphin. he's called dolphin is dolphin. his name is dolphin. and i was just saying he identified as a dolphin. >> but that's nonsense. >> but that's nonsense. >> but that's nonsense. >> but funny, but only because it comes up later. but that's the end of part two. after the break, we've got ellen and pavel contra mundum and no more
5:28 am
5:29 am
5:30 am
5:31 am
and welcome back to headliners for the second half we kick off with the daily mail. kerry, their take on elon musk standing by pavel durov and telegram. and they get a little dig in at the headunes they get a little dig in at the headlines as well. >> liberty, liberty, liberty. apparently musk has tweeted because liberty tweet as much as he likes , and he's talking about he likes, and he's talking about this. yes. the russian counterpart of durov, who owns telegram , which i've not looked telegram, which i've not looked at telegram myself , and i've
5:32 am
at telegram myself, and i've heard a lot about it. i notice that people on x on twitter call it a cesspit, so it's got to be pretty bad. but it's, but it's what we're into is really this forever war between free speech and censorship, which telegram's for free speech will always win over the people into censorship because they can call them by much nastier names that they're not prepared to use themselves. so just to just clarify, telegram is not like twitter. >> telegram is more like whatsapp, >> it's a bit more like whatsapp, and it's supposed to be encrypted messages. although i read a thing today saying they're not really that much encrypted. and if you cancel your account and go back in, apparently the messages come up again. so i'm not sure whether the encryption is working that well, but the boss, the head of telegram, has been so the elon musk equivalent has been arrested in france, which is i mean, this is pretty serious intimidation of somebody. >> and the reason for crimes against minors they've put. >> but that's not him attacking minors. >> no, that's not him. so they're saying they're saying his his app is facilitated. you know terrorism and crime and all this sort of stuff. but all the
5:33 am
apps like facebook and every single telephones like pens, pens can be used to write hate crime messages, you know, i mean, the pens post office postal or postal network was used to send letter bombs by the ira like we weren't dragging postmasters in. we should have been dragging. >> and he's got like 950 million users. so i think realistically, the idea that he can kind of camp, there's a lot of talk about exactly what might be going on below the surface, what might be kind of pressure being brought to bear. >> well, they're bringing pressure on him to they already tried to get him to install a back door so they can spy on what other people are saying, and telegram refused. previously, russia put political pressure on telegram because they're based in russia to let them see ukrainian messages and, and telegram refused and they were patted on the back for that. so now, you know, it's the west trying to get that backdoor access and, and there's a big there's a lot of pressure on social media sites at the moment because, you know, everybody in the west, all the sort of authoritarian governments are saying, oh, there's
5:34 am
misinformation. we need to stop misinformation. we need to stop misinformation. but, you know, who gets to decide what's misinformation? the same people you know, said hunter biden's laptop story was misinformation . laptop story was misinformation. sure, sure. >> and the way these things are used is just as hamas will use telegram. but at the same time , telegram. but at the same time, people in under authoritarian regimes are able to use telegram, and we're able to hear a little bit about what they have to say. so we've heard a lot from people in lebanon talking about their fears of hezbollah, fighting, even causing a war. so some of this stuff would not be coming out if it wasn't for. >> no, you're right. i mean, dunng >> no, you're right. i mean, during the, during the arab spring, you know, social media, that was the first great use of social media, wasn't it? it was seen as the weapon of the people. and a lot of the colour protests and colour riots and so on. destabilising regimes. the cia used it very effectively. it's, you know, these things can be used by everyone . telegraph be used by everyone. telegraph now, not telegram leo. and it's not okay to be white in birmingham by the sound of it. >> apparently not so racist graffiti in birmingham reading no whites and no whites allowed is being investigated by police to see if it's actually a banner
5:35 am
above, any public sector institution. and so, interestingly , the police interestingly, the police officers who are investigating this will then have to attend diversity training where they'll be told that, you know, whites are bad. so it's a bit it's a bit ironic. i mean, this is this is basically cctv footage obtained by the telegraph shows the moment a hooded figure approaches the first location at 1:20 am. in the morning and then sprays it , sprays it on the then sprays it, sprays it on the wall, but, yeah, this is this is interesting because this is critical race theory that, you know, is spread through all our institutions, and now it's manifesting itself on the streets. and even, you know, the muslims protesting in rochdale, they were they were repeating this sort of critical race theory, saying that, you know, there's systemic racism and all this sort of stuff. is it because i got the feeling it was more just like straight up racism, like just straight up no whites. >> we don't want whites around here. this is our turf. is that critical race theory or is that just old fashioned? tribalistic sort of. no, they're both old fashioned. >> tribalistic racism. they are both. >> i mean, it could lend itself .
5:36 am
>> i mean, it could lend itself. yes, because it is a theory of psychology and the way people of different colour think, and particularly white people think in an evil way. yeah. so that probably doesn't help. at the same time , what's interesting same time, what's interesting about this is the police don't like to say what colour someone was when they they offended, but this one we can be pretty sure they weren't white, >> a hooded figure who's shadow spoke for itself. anger. now kerry . anger in the independent. kerry. anger in the independent. not the wrath of achilles, but a report on the un saying of florida's tourist websites . florida's tourist websites. >> anger as florida removes lgbtq+ tourism info from a state website. the state website is called visa visit florida , and called visa visit florida, and we don't really in this story. find out why they made the decision. in fact, their spokespeople were asked and haven't said so. we're only heanng haven't said so. we're only hearing one side of it really , hearing one side of it really, we're told several florida cities have long been top us destinations for lgbtq+ tourists, but maybe not for long. i don't think that's true. i think i think gays normally know to where go. yeah, i think they'll figure it out. you know,
5:37 am
they'll figure it out. you know, they probably don't even rely on, you know, so. well, that's nice. nice thing too as well. and good luck to you. >> they wouldn't even rely on the state website would they. >> yeah, i think it's ridiculous to think though. i must go to the official ron desantis website to find out. you know, i know without knowing their reasons, we don't know in a sense, a lot of the lgbt stuff is now rainbows on top of rainbows. >> yeah, it's always been sort of rammed down. everyone's throats. yeah. maybe it's actually coming down. >> it's really hard to tell, you know, what's a bank and what's a gay bar now. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> or or a car showroom or a municipal library. i mean, florida has to be briefly serious. it has been at the forefront of fighting back against this stuff in the schools and so on, hasn't it? >> yeah. well, this is the thing. i mean, the lgbtq lobby pushed too far, and i think a lot of gay people don't like that it was pushed, pushed too far because in the independent this is the independent. so it's, you know, basically the guardian but not the guardian. they say that gay people are being erased. some of the examples are they're forbidding classroom instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity. and that's got nothing to do
5:38 am
with that. should be should be banned. they've supported a ban on gender affirming care for minors. again, you know , we minors. again, you know, we shouldn't be transitioning children as well as a law meant to keep children out of drag shows. that's not homophobia . shows. that's not homophobia. that's just drag shows aren't for children. >> in fact, if anything, transitioning is erasing gay people. yeah, yeah , that's that people. yeah, yeah, that's that was some that was the joke that used to go around the clinic wasn't it. yeah. the tavistock. yeah. yeah. >> but at the same time we don't know how. i think there's a thin line here between whether it's an ideology that's gone too far and is now easing down a little bit. but there's also, of course, the religious right in america. yeah who probably do to some extent want to erase and get rid of gay marriage if they think that's going on as well. >> the florida state tourist website says no gays allowed. and then that will be the following. >> that would definitely be a clue as to where they're coming from here. >> yes, evidence that 2024 is the new 1974 mounts. now, leo, as churches are told to resort to blankets over heaters to keep parishioners toasty. >> yeah. so give worshippers blankets instead of heating churches, vicars are told. this
5:39 am
is because apparently it's too expensive to heat the churches just for an hour and a half a week. so the reverend giles goddard, who has helped to spearhead the church of england's 2013 net zero campaign, says that heating the old stone churches is economically not worth it. i mean, it might be economically worth it if nobody comes because it's too cold. also, his own church in waterloo has had a £6 million investment to make it greener. so they could have. i mean, that's nice for all the people who aren't getting their heating bills. >> 6 million. >> 6 million. >> yeah, 6 million to make it greener. i don't know what that was. i take all the lead off the roof. >> fryston. >> fryston. >> i remember hearing this sermon and the lord said, give them blankets. i've never thought it's so cold. i must go to a church and warm up. >> churches are cold. i tell you what, it would be a nightmare i've been saying for years. if you if you could get some decent program going in the countryside that old people could go to churches and not have to heat their own homes. sure. >> you know, what we should do
5:40 am
is, is more like the pentecostal churches in america, people lurching and jumping around and saying that that'll warm them up. >> that's what you're going to say. they'd be on fire. that's the pentecostalism. our first dose of the guardian. this evening, kerry, and the latest pitiful attempt to justify vanhy pitiful attempt to justify vanity as the pressure on women to look a certain way. >> people. yeah. and it is about women as well. they don't say that at the beginning. people think that looking better means you will have a better life. why gen—z spend so much on beauty? but of course, they're talking about female. this is all women, women, women . so i assume that's women, women. so i assume that's what it's about. what's really going on here is it's bank holiday. so we're getting sunday news. this is this is so not news, this is one of these articles where we go through each character and all these different people we don't know, tell us about things we don't care about, which is that despite, once again, as i said earlier on, we've we've for ages been saying everyone's beautiful and fat doesn't matter and so on. but really people haven't changed. they still want to be attractive. and also this is spurred on by tiktok. even though there are filters now and so on. but the article is blaming everything from covid,
5:41 am
lockdown, climate change and everything else as to why girls want to look pretty. but maybe they just do. >> i wonder , though, if you have >> i wonder, though, if you have a point with the tiktok that, that people, people are always monitoring, you know , their monitoring, you know, their rivals, aren't they, to see how they're doing. and if you see everyone through a filter all the time and then you see yourself in the mirror, i wonder if that's i don't know. >> well, you can see yourself through a filter as well. yeah. that's great isn't it. >> well there's an arms race as well for women. so the amount they're spending. so this 28 year old influencer spends £500 a month on grooming appointments and then on top of that, £300 every three months on botox. i mean, it does sound expensive, but for a man, she 28, so she obviously does botox. yeah, she probably looks about 45 because of all that. >> but yet if a man spends that much on grooming, he's he's back. >> well, this is this is the thing. like it sounds expensive, but for me to increase my attractiveness by that amount, by that level, i'd have to spend ten years studying to be surgeon. >> surgeon. >> so are you trying to give us get us to give you compliments now? sorry. you're really beautiful, leo. >> the thing is, your sexual
5:42 am
marketplace value continues to rise until you're 45. leo. as you. well know, as you get past that point. >> so just the final section to go with making danish bacon. >> and what some might say the we've all been waiting for day after
5:43 am
5:44 am
5:45 am
break. and welcome back to our headliners for our final
5:46 am
section, leo. confusing or rather, just wrong headline about oasis in the mail, directly contradicted by paragraph five, but anyway, to you. >> so liam gallagher is worth eight times more than his elder brother noel. according to this, liam gallagher's net worth is said to be eight times that of his elder brother noel. but experts say they're set to make almost half £1 billion if the rumoured reunion goes ahead. they got this wrong. liam obviously isn't richer. noel is much richer, much richer because he wrote the song, so he gets the royalties from the from the songs. but liam, the important thing is that liam , who's 51 thing is that liam, who's 51 now, i can't believe that. that makes me feel old, sent tongues or i think they mean set tongues wagging that he and his brother, who's 57. oh my god, it's my age. what on earth is going on? have finally buried the hatchet after 15 years. so liam dedicated a song to noel at the reading festival, and they might be reforming because basically they need money now. >> well, it sounds like liam, once they get themselves, once they get their figures worked out and organised. as you say,
5:47 am
noel gets money every time a songis noel gets money every time a song is played on the radio and liam doesn't, but, but, or indeed a special tribute after a bomb has gone off. of course . bomb has gone off. of course. but, liam's down to his last 6 million, which actually sounds like it's not that great for a massive rock star, is it? 6 million? i mean, you could blow that in a big night when you're at the top of the game, couldn't you? yeah. >> i feel like this whole article is like they're trying to start a fight, isn't it? and also, they do get this the wrong way round. they start off with liam gallagher is worth eight times more than his elder brother noel, and just a few paragraphs down, it says noel has an estimated worth of 53 million, while his younger brother liam, 51, is worth just six. so that's a reversal of where we started. >> we just we just said all about that. >> yeah, i know, but what i'm saying is what i'm saying is they've reversed it in their own article. yeah, i also said that. >> did you. yeah okay. >> did you. yeah okay. >> say it again. i thought you said that they're getting it wrong, but not that they're getting it wrong within the article. let's go. i will argue this time afterwards, yeah. it's i mean, he's basically saying he's doing the show for the
5:48 am
money, which i think would be quite off putting if you were going along. not for the love. not because he cares about the music. >> it's like his audience. once it starts, it's all good, isn't it? fertility news from denmark in the eye. news, kerry. and how the little sperm may didn't get into this headline i don't know. >> okay, so denmark became the sperm capital of the world. the country is home to the world's biggest sperm banks and a major suppuer biggest sperm banks and a major supplier of would be parents around the world. now, more than 1% of all children born in denmark are conceived using donor sperm, and apparently we're really into denmark. donor sperm as well. over here, are we, yeah. i mean, it's like a new type of colonialism going on here. the vikings had their time, and now they're trying to do it more subtly. >> at least they're not killing people with axes first. >> yeah, well, they moved on from that. >> and it's interesting i think if you look under the microscope and they've all got little horny hats on wriggling around, i mean, it's nice to be known for something, even if it's just you've got the biggest sperm banksin you've got the biggest sperm banks in the world. >> yeah, or whether it's just the biggest sperm. maybe it's
5:49 am
just a really big sperm. >> yeah. interestingly to me, anyway, the couple who've written the story is, of course, a lesbian couple, same sex couple. i don't know whether this is an underestimated sort of source of revenue, but i have seen a couple of female comedians talk about how ludicrously expensive it is really, to get. yeah, to get like a properly accredited sperm. and you're, like, thinking, i think there's probably a cheaper way of doing it than that. yeah. if you want to just send a stamped, addressed jiffy bag into the gb news studio and we will sort you out, who could it be? >> you'll find out in 20 years in a telephone box somewhere. >> sell the sizzle over to the times now, leo. but with staying with the greatest love of all. and it's bad news for fur babies and cat mums, i'm afraid. yeah. >> so parental love activates the brain like no other bond. they've done mri scans on people and read them stories based on six different kinds of love. the for love children, for romantic partners, for close friends, for pets, for strangers in need and nature . nature. >> that's not love. >> that's not love. >> yeah, that's that's
5:50 am
annoyance. annoyance is fiercely restrained. >> irritation , >> irritation, >> irritation, >> and they found that people love their children more than anything, won't you? i mean, do they need to do a scan for that? >> yeah, i mean, if there was a house fire and you rescued the cat and then you went back with the children , i think the whole the children, i think the whole world would frown, wouldn't they? they all go. i can't imagine many people going. yeah, that's understandable. >> i think maybe it does need saying though. maybe it is nice to say when we have this massive fertility crisis that people don't perhaps quite realise just how extraordinary the love you feel for your child is. it is pretty remarkable. yeah it's interesting. >> they're showing the parts of the brain that are firing up and saying, this is definitely a physical thing, but we know it's a thing. >> well, yeah, but i think maybe people don't know. maybe people do think when they have a cat or a or a pug on their lap, they think, i've got to get everything from you without the school fees, you know? and actually, no, there's a bit more. there is something very special about it, isn't it? >> oh, yeah. no, it's incredible. it really it blew my mind. and i can't believe it's
5:51 am
sort of covered up in the in the media. and, you know, the guardian runs articles saying, oh, stay single and drink margaritas. yeah. having a kid is the most amazing thing in the world. >> have you ever hugged a tree? no >> that's blokes talking, right? yeah you know, imagine if you actually had the hormones really? to kind of turbo boost really? to kind of turbo boost real blokes , literary scholars. real blokes, literary scholars. now putting the record straight on dickens marriage career that shows dickens lied about having a bleak spouse . a bleak spouse. >> it turns out a fiction writer lied. i'm sure he wrote a description of physical description of physical description of physical description of his wife that was probably about 4 or 5 paragraphs, but apparently he wasn't telling the truth. he was probably just trying to make excuses to his new lover, and her letters to her son, who, by the way, was called. i'm going to try and get this right. you might help me. to try and get this right. you might help me . plornish maroon might help me. plornish maroon taoiseach hunter. did you read that? >> he had an odd nickname. yeah, that wasn't his christian name, but yeah, they had an that's his nickname. >> how long was his name ? i >> how long was his name? i think there's several pages. i think there's several pages. i think there's several pages. i think there's a suggestion that dickens wasn't a terribly nice
5:52 am
man in his private life. >> and he married this, this second wife who writers were. >> how many authors would turn out to be lovely people? and on the basis or something, we have to squeeze this last one in now. >> leo two tier policing and victim blaming. after a string of sexual assaults in japan. this is in the telegraph. >> so a sexually frustrated dolphin is blamed for 18 attacks on swimmers, who i assume are japanese people. so yeah, when we're used to sharks attacking people. but this is a this is a dolphin attacking people. it would only get a community. it would only get a community. it would get a tap on the wrist from the police in britain, wouldn't go to jail at all, wouldn't go to jail at all, wouldn't get to send to seaworld, send him along to the notting hill carnival. >> is he a bottlenose dolphin ? >> is he a bottlenose dolphin? incidentally, i just want to know which kind he is. >> why would that, chief? yeah well, no, i just want to know exactly what the nature of the assault is. >> well, he's a randy dolphin. they're pretty dangerous when they get randy, you know, they have very large appendixes. >> i have heard that they can become operable . operable, like, become operable. operable, like, consciously, like they have consciously, like they have conscious control over their own. have you heard that? >> well , they they are able to
5:53 am
>> well, they they are able to grip with their penis and drag someone. wow. that's a penis got arms. it's prehensile . it can arms. it's prehensile. it can move around. it can grab. it's full of muscles. yeah absolutely. >> this show is nearly over. let's take another quickly after that. let's take another quick look at tuesday's front pages. daily telegraph violent criminals allowed to just say sorry. the guardian revealed staggering rise in anxiety among children. the times police have given up on punishing shoplifters daily mirror don't be sorry . shoplifters daily mirror don't be sorry. smile. it's been fantastic. bye bye sven and the daily express farage warns of shocks to come in labour budget and finally, the daily star. this is our last chance to stop the psycho killer robots. those were your front pages. that's all we have time for. thank you to my guests , leo and kerry, and to my guests, leo and kerry, and i'll be here again tomorrow with 11 at 11 pm. with kerry again and nick dixon . if you're and nick dixon. if you're watching at 5 am, stay tuned for breakfast. otherwise, thank you and good night. >> that warm feeling inside from boxt boilers sponsors of weather
