tonight. let's go. first. yeah. so the rest of the media, they're really telling you one side of this. so called royal racism row. i'm going to present the other in just a moment. but, you know, we did the news first here on this show. so tats that tatiana sanchez now with the headlines . sanchez now with the headlines. at nine. dan, thank you very much . the latest from the gb much. the latest from the gb newsroom, the founder of a domestic abuse charity has told gb news she felt like she was being interrogated during a reception at buckingham palace. ngozi fulani described comments made by prince william's godmother as an acceptable and she was shocked by her behaviour dunng she was shocked by her behaviour during a royal reception . lady during a royal reception. lady susan hussey was forced to apologise and resign for repeatedly asking ms. villani where she really came from. i mean, if you want to find out

something about somebody, you ask a question once or twice. once you've got the answer. you move on, right? and because this whole thing is about domestic abuse, there were other questions. but when the first thing she did as well is to take my hair and move it out of the way. that's the first thing. no. hello? no, nothing. you just actually, you know, and i've never done that. i've really think that we need to respect people's personal . space people's personal. space ambulance waiting times are now higher than they were at any point last winter. new data shows nearly a third of patients in england had to wait more than half an hour to be handed over to a&e last week. an average of 13,000 patients were also stuck in hospital beds each day, despite being ready to be discharged. prime minister rishi sunak says investing in social care will help ease the burden on the nhs. i want to see ambulance waiting times come down and that's why in spite of the difficult decisions we've had to make, we've put more

money into the nhs to help address the waiting times that people are experiencing. one of the ways we're going to do that is by moving people out of hospitals back to their homes, back into the communities, and that's why we've invested in social care, because that money will provide more capacity will help provide more capacity . can free up those . and if we can free up those beds , that will stop some of the beds, that will stop some of the delays that we're seeing. gb news understand more than 44,000 migrants have crossed the channel so far this year. that's after around 200 people made the journey this morning. the overall figure is significantly higher than last year's total , higher than last year's total, when almost 29,000 people crossed. a surge in the number of people attempting the trip. this week coincides with better weather conditions . the met weather conditions. the met police commissioner sam rowley says he's going after corrupt officers within the force . officers within the force. measures such as an anonymous hotline have been introduced to help identify them and root out racism, misogyny and other toxic

conduct. and the christmas tree lies have been turned on at trafalgar square while . crowds trafalgar square while. crowds gathered to see the lights go on this evening. the tree is an annual gift from norway as a thank you for support during the second world war tv online and dab+ radio. this is gb news. now it's back to dan wootton tonight . it's back to dan wootton tonight. if you've consumed the hysterical mainstream media over the past day , you'd think the the past day, you'd think the british royal family and actually the uk itself is riddled with racism . the very riddled with racism. the very reason i joined gb news is reason ijoined gb news is provide to provide balance really to the woke establishment authored oxi. so let me be very

clear. there is now a very transparent attempt by the sussex squad and other haters and wreckers of the british monarchy to our royal family as racist . asked don, not, and the racist. asked don, not, and the palace must not give in to these woke attacks that undermine the late queen's life's work. i am , late queen's life's work. i am, of course, referring to the media hysteria around 83 year old lady susan hussey's unfortunate conversation with the activist charity box ngozi fulani , in which she asked fulani, in which she asked multiple times where she was from. and that's been taken as proof by most of the media that the monarchy is guilty of structural racism and making just must have been a victim to . but yesterday i revealed there is much more to this story than meets the eye, which has been ignored by the woke media because it doesn't fit the anti monarchy narrative. now that includes the fact that phil honeyis includes the fact that phil honey is an extremist supporter of harry and meghan, who has

bizarre only accused king charles and queen camilla of being guilty of domestic violence towards their daughter in law . now, she's been on in law. now, she's been on a media blitz today. the bbc didn't ask about it. sly news didn't ask about it. sly news didn't ask about it. sly news didn't ask about it. but jeremy vine sought to watch this . and vine sought to watch this. and it's also about obviously, buckingham palace and what goes on in there. and i know you've i think you've previously tweeted about the treatment of meghan is you feeling that this this actually makes makes you think that some of what meghan said about the way she was treated must been bang on. i have must have been bang on. i have never tweeted about meghan. i have not joined that conversation. and i won't do that now because as i said, the focus needs to be on what happened within buckingham palace a couple of days ago. and now forlani is either mistaken or been deliberately misleading with that answer because from the account of her charity sister space and signed off with

her name, she tweeted in march last year , our charity supports last year, our charity supports black women , domestic violence black women, domestic violence survivors. i can't stay silent about this. i admire meghan for speaking out. according to clear definition, it seems. meghan is a survivor of domestic violence from her in—laws past. i'm glad hypocrite piers has left itv. and then another tweet from may this year. she seemingly wrote in regards to the decision by the late queen for harry and meghan not to appear on the bpp balcony during the platinum jubilee because they are non—working royals. harry and meghan won't be allowed on the balcony. they are in a completely different category to andrew. linked to sexual andrew. he's linked to sexual crimes. harry married and had children with a black woman and all exclusively white balcony . all exclusively white balcony. the only black people banned racism . so look, while it's racism. so look, while it's terrible, she was made to feel uncomfortable by 83 year old

lady hussy , a member, i should lady hussy, a member, i should say , of a different generation. say, of a different generation. clearly unaware of the woke language that now dominates our culture . her preconceived culture. her preconceived loyalty to harry and meghan before the palace visit is at the very least, important content about what forlani is now claiming. but when it comes to the royal family at the moment in the woke media, anyway, a parent's is always outweigh reality. so the bbc allows her unchallenged to say she was a victim of abuse at buckingham palace . then i have buckingham palace. then i have to really question how this can happenin to really question how this can happen in any space that's supposed to do protect women against all kinds of violence . against all kinds of violence. although it's not physical violence is an abuse. so i loved her reaction. did she then as this conversation continued, like did did she did she did she laugh or did how did she walk off in the end? what happened ?

off in the end? what happened? like an interrogation , i guess like an interrogation, i guess the only way i can explain it, she is determined. where are you from? where are your people from? where are your people from? no pushback at all to the claim that she suffered from abuse because of questionable buckingham palace. so i believe there is a clear agenda here to destroy the british monarchy , destroy the british monarchy, starting with the prince and princess of wales now overshadowed us to following the race. well, they were subjected to a lecture on colonialism at their own opening event by reverend mariama white hammond , reverend mariama white hammond, left wing, boston's chief of environment, energy and open space and even exposed booze at the basket ball. i invite us all to consider the legacy of colonialism and racism, the ways it has impacted people across the world, and its connection, its deep connection to the degradation of land and our

planet that we are all seeking to reverse . so that reaction is why it's important that our media critically analyses these claims of racism against the royal family rather than giving in to the harry and meghan fuelled hatred of the monarchy. remember the monarchy that the vast majority of us love and support ? to respond now, my superstar panel , the author and panel, the author and broadcaster christine hamilton, the esteemed political journalist john sargeant , and journalist john sargeant, and the author and broadcaster amy nicholl . christine hamilton nicholl. christine hamilton i thought it was important to bnng thought it was important to bring everything together that

i've experienced and found out about the story over the past 24 hours. because if you've watched any mainstream media coverage of this, you wouldn't have heard anything like it. no, indeed not. and i think it's important to bear in mind that people are taking as read that this is a transcript of the conversation. it's not it's one person's recollection . unless she had recollection. unless she had a recording device and then you would want to know why she took a recording device into buckingham palace unless she was planning to. if she had a recording device, we would have heard the recording by now. so i don't think she did. this was her recollection . and by her own her recollection. and by her own admission, she said the rest of it was a bit of a blur. what i cannot understand is why she must forlani. she goes to buckingham palace in a dress to which she is entirely entitled to her heritage. she's obviously proud of her heritage . proud of her heritage. otherwise, she if i imagine if i'd gone to buckingham palace dressed like that, that would be an outrage. it would have been cultural appropriation. so she

feels entitled wear that feels entitled to wear that lady. susan hussey, as you said, she comes from a different age. she understand the way she doesn't understand the way these you have to be so these nuances you have to be so careful about treading on eggshells. she didn't understand . probably interested to . she was probably interested to know where she came with her heritage was what was the costume, what was the outfit, what did it represent? what is wrong with that? she was just being polite. she was called making polite conversation. and i think her outrage i think you're right. i think she went there. i wouldn't say she went there. i wouldn't say she went there determined to be offended, but, my goodness, she got but, my goodness, when she got the opportunity and the slightest opportunity and the slightest opportunity and the all blown to the way it's all blown up to know white in this know white people in this country were made to feel country now were made to feel racist existing. racist just for even existing. i mean, that's what i feel now as a a middle aged, white, a as a middle aged, white, middle class woman. i people assume that i'm going to be a racist, which i'm not. and all this sort of thing just fuels that. and it's not good for race relations basically. it's relations is basically. no, it's counterproductive. idea counterproductive. but the idea that the royal family exhibited domestic towards meghan domestic violence towards meghan and harry, but of course,

domestic violence isn't what maybe you or would think of as maybe you or i would think of as domestic violence. john serjeant that that's believe that that that's why i believe that the squad are involved the sussex squad are involved here those that here because those tweets that straight of the sussex squad straight out of the sussex squad playbook, you can playbook, i mean, you can criticise charles and camilla and you can say maybe they weren't welcoming enough to back. and now personally i don't agree with that. charles walked her the aisle, but is her down the aisle, but that is at least debate. but to at least a fair debate. but to suggest they inflicted suggest that they inflicted domestic violence upon meghan, domestic violence upon meghan, do you agree with me that that is an extremist view? that certainly is going way too far. but the simple point is that the royal family, the king and the queen consort must have believed the account they were given of this encounter. presume because apparently else they would have checked this with susan hussey . checked this with susan hussey. so there's no doubt that there was enough there for them to say , right, you're out, you're out of the system , which is pretty of the system, which is pretty serious. so the idea that christine gives this innocent dear of 83 didn't know dear old lady of 83 didn't know anything ,

dear old lady of 83 didn't know anything, didn't know dear old lady of 83 didn't know anything , didn't know what was anything, didn't know what was going on, woke enough. going on, wasn't woke enough. but the follow up but some of the follow up questions were plain ignorant. but i think christine's wait a minute. can i just make this? yes, please. please. because i can't. it's quite complicated business. you follow the business. but if you follow the conversation as described where she says but where are you from? and nkosi fulani then says no records were kept. now that's quite poignant because of course, if you're in the west indies and you've come originally from a slave family , originally from a slave family, you don't know where you are from in africa because they were shipped often in british ships. i'm not making a sort of political point. i'm making a factual point. they were often shipped in british ships. no records were kept of where they were, which village they came from. originally so these aren't points which we all should know. they're not. they don't sort of obscure history that you think are relevant to a question, though. you must have known perfectly well what ? she's not a perfectly well what? she's not a stupid woman. she knew susan hussey, them. but why hussey, neither of them. but why didn't ? she must have

didn't suzanne? she must have known. what susan hussey didn't suzanne? she must have kn0\was what susan hussey didn't suzanne? she must have kn0\was driving|at susan hussey didn't suzanne? she must have kn0\was driving at.susan hussey didn't suzanne? she must have kn0\was driving at. shen hussey didn't suzanne? she must have kn0\was driving at. she mustsey was was driving at. she must have known what she wanted to know. she was wanting to know because you know, i've because she said, you know, i've come hackney, must have come from hackney, she must have known. can i just ask known. but john, can i just ask you question let's just you a question now? let's just assume i actually agree assume because i actually agree with was clearly some sort of there was clearly some sort of altercation between the two of them. we don't we cannot say for sure that this tried to separate the king and the queen consort must have agreed them for must have agreed with them for the purpose of this question, have since apologised to the royal family. well i think that was of desperation. but was because of desperation. but can for the purposes of can we just for the purposes of this fine. we'll this question, fine. we'll accept transcript was accept that. the transcript was accurate. been on accurate. forlani has been on a media blitz today describing lady hussey as racist. multiple times. do you think any of the questions that lady hussey asked makes her racist? no, they made her know. they made her not very sensitive , if not very sensible sensitive, if not very sensible for someone who is meant to as part of her job, to advise diana

part of herjob, to advise diana . but no one knows. wait a moment . no, but her job was to moment. no, but herjob was to advise diana, then to advise fergie, then to advise. amazingly, meghan markle herself how to be a royal . well, that's how to be a royal. well, that's quite a big gap , given that one quite a big gap, given that one of the point of the reason i just want it. but the reason i just want it. but the reason i just want it. but the reason i just want to dig down on the racism point, though, is because this transcript has been used to suggest that the royal family is institutionally stone, institutionally in stone, though. no, because that's another they're another point. they're not institutionally i never institutionally racist. i never said that. but it's quite clear this particular incident and of course it is people always use using every argument they can . using every argument they can. the point, of course , the overall point, of course, they're not institutionally racist and as as prince william said , they're not a racist said, they're not a racist family. i completely accept that. do you accept that? i mean, a coward? i think it was a racist question because i think when you say, well, you really from your saying that you cannot be british based on the way that you appear , and that is you appear, and that is undeniably racist. the thing

that has this has sparked is it sparked conversation between all the people that have experienced being asked this question as well. and they have said how it has made them feel. so really , has made them feel. so really, can we learn from this and say that's not a question that's not an appropriate question anymore 7 an appropriate question anymore ? maybe it was once, but it's not now . so let's just we don't not now. so let's just we don't need go too woke training do need to go too woke training do i know would never i would i know i would never i would neverin i know i would never i would never in a million years have said, you know, where are you really exactly? if really from exactly? but if i want to know what somebody's heritage that heritage is, i ask that question, it, christine? question, what is it, christine? you that when you've question, what is it, christine? you met that when you've question, what is it, christine? you met somebody nhen you've question, what is it, christine? you met somebody atan you've question, what is it, christine? you met somebody at a you've question, what is it, christine? you met somebody at a meeting just met somebody at a meeting that should do with a lot of people. as i said on the show last night, i had a great conversation with my taxi driver the other night, who is from pakistan. i asked where he's from, but he talked to me about his passion for cricket. it sparked a great conversation, sparked up a great conversation, actually. i think the actually. i don't think the question is and the problem question is race and the problem is what we are doing all the time criminalising time now is criminalising language are cancelling an language. we are cancelling an 83 year old woman and i think it

stinks. well, there is an agenda for certain sections of community , the community to see community, the community to see racism wherever it exists. and even if it doesn't exist, they are determined . and i know are determined. and i know assange on this and i can i just can i make this simple story final point about 20 years ago, i met a black england footballer , sol campbell, great guy , and , sol campbell, great guy, and we met in a radio studio . the we met in a radio studio. the first thing he said to me was where are you from originally? did you racist? this was 20 years ago and i just i was thinking about what we were about to do in the in the studio. and i said, oh well i'm originally from oxfordshire and it only afterwards that it was only afterwards that i thought, oh, it's because he cares so much about this particular and i then particular question. and i then read morning that he read this morning that when he was young player , a trainer was a young player, a trainer said him , you'll be pleased. said to him, you'll be pleased. and he said, please don't want naysayers, please the naysayers, you will please the west are playing cricket west indies are playing cricket against england and the west indies are doing very well now. he's so campbell said that was aninqu he's so campbell said that was an insult so i mean this whole

thing has got a long history of people being a not sensitive enoughi people being a not sensitive enough i don't care . well, the enough i don't care. well, the point is my point is, as i as i've been very clear about, i am asked constantly and consistently , very often in rude consistently, very often in rude terms about where i'm from, because i have a funny action that's based on your i me. i'm a british citizen. i'm a pretty different it's completely different it's completely different looking at somebody. why is my daughter going, you can't be british is very different to my voice and making a judgement about my because there is from within the new zealand accent from britain there are plenty of black and brown people born in britain who are british. that's a difference. yes but i'm british, despite the fact i have a new zealand accent. that's the point that i'm making and i don't look to be offended. compston but look, we're going to susan did not say, i don't believe you're british. she wanted to find out . she's 83 years old. she should be old enough to not be a bigot by now. shouldn't be in that job. i mean, it can be advice on

hudson. christine appleton, my superstar panel who were here all night. but coming up, words like king queen, and like king, queen, consort and prince wales . wrong to bow to prince of wales. wrong to bow to the baying mob by sacking hussey . two of my royal masterminds , . two of my royal masterminds, lady colin campbell and phil dampier , give their take at 935. dampier, give their take at 935. but first is out king of the north, lee anderson write that the tories should pursue a next zero immigration policy. political commentator benjamin lock name and actress jenny barnet do battle over britain's borders and the clash next, i want to know what you think. email me down at gb news dot uk. tweet me at gb news. our poll running there to results running there to their results after the break .

time now for the clash today. gb news exclusively revealed the number of migrants who have illegally crossed the channel this has topped 44,000. this year has topped 44,000. nearly double the 2021 number. this is after around 200 folk on small boats landed on british shores this morning . meanwhile, shores this morning. meanwhile, net migration has also hit a record high, 504,000, roughly the equivalent of the population of liverpool landing on our doorstep during a cost of living crisis . it doorstep during a cost of living crisis. it seems doorstep during a cost of living crisis . it seems precious few crisis. it seems precious few tories that bothered. however, aside from notable outliers like superwoman solo and now king of the north, lee anderson, who last night made this radical proposal while speaking out

against acts, government plans to turn back the boats . i'm on to turn back the boats. i'm on this net zero journey. that is net zero nonsense. let's have a net zero nonsense. let's have a net zero nonsense. let's have a net zero immigration. one in, one out. if we've got a skill shortage, let's go to the labour force. we've got plenty on the dole in this country that need jobs. only 14 the jobs. only 14 into the workforce, do you say? tales of thousands? to me, i thousands? actually, to me, i think net zero. migration think it's a net zero. migration is to come a point in time is going to come a point in time in 20, 30, 40, 50 years time when our children and grandchildren going say grandchildren are going to say that , why don't you that granddad, why don't you sort out ? we're full. we sort this out? we're full. we can't house. we can't get can't get a house. we can't get a appointment. can't a doctor's appointment. we can't get a school place. you let this happen. we've let this happen. we of we should be ashamed of ourselves. illegal ourselves. so with illegal channel at an all time channel crossings at an all time high, , anderson high, easily, anderson writes that tories keep that the tories should keep legal migration shape by legal migration in shape by pursuing a net zero immigration policy to an gbnews.uk vote. in our poll at gb news. but duking it out now , i'm joined by the it out now, i'm joined by the conservative political commentator benjamin lock. nine, and the broadcaster and actor jenny bonnet. benjamin he's got

a point, doesn't he? because it's not saying that no one can enter the country. i mean, about 500,000 folk left last year and he's just saying, let's replace those people. yeah, he's absolutely correct in terms of numbers . we do need to bring the numbers. we do need to bring the numbers. we do need to bring the numbers down. but the problem with the idea of one in, one out is, you know, it's quality, not quantity. need to make sure quantity. we need to make sure that we have the right people in and the wrong people if you and the wrong people out. if you send loads of we've send away loads of doctors we've trained people, we've trained in our nhs people, we've put our schools with put through our schools with taxpayer we taxpayer money, people we put through universe and through our universe fees and then they're leaving for better paid abroad and replacing paid jobs abroad and replacing them pickers, them with fruit pickers, for example. that is a positive example. that is not a positive policy. yes , one in, policy. so, yes, one in, one out. need to ensure that out. but we need to ensure that it's as as quality. it's quality as well as quality. yes still using the points yes it's still using the points based , but using based system, but using it properly. is that properly. jenny but why is that wrong? it makes sense . wrong? surely it makes sense. well, i think we have to look at the i'm going to have to read some of my notes because asylum allocations are half what they were 20 years ago, that half

fewer people are now being processed . the more people are processed. the more people are hanging around . so we know that hanging around. so we know that there's something wrong. we know that something's going on because of the cost of living price , food prices. we've got price, food prices. we've got people saying they are parasites are coming into this country, then they are criminals that terrorists, if they're not not coming here to don't they're coming here to don't they're coming here to work. they're coming here to work. they're coming here to find relatives that are coming here in situations . and what's happening situations. and what's happening is because of our infrastructure , which has gone down. people don't know where to run them. they are choosing blame these people coming in on boats. 70, 14.4. and it was coming in here. but lord have stopped with their investment and we now have a home office that's full each . home office that's full each. okay. sorry. we just as he knew that , jenny but we've we've got that, jenny but we've we've got the. benjamin, how do you respond to that? but i think, you know, it's one thing to talk about it being a small amount,

but it's about principle. but it's about the principle. it's about the number it's not just about the number of coming across of people coming across illegally. we're illegally. when we're talking about albanians about a number of albanians coming, no war in coming, there's no war in albania. it shouldn't be about, oh, well, it's only few. it oh, well, it's only a few. it should absolutely zero. these should be absolutely zero. these people legitimate asylum people are not legitimate asylum seekers. they're not refugees . seekers. they're not refugees. these are people who are gaming the system. they're using a loophole. using gap in loophole. they using a gap in our security in order to our border security in order to exploit country. and it's exploit this country. and it's not just, you know, it's them who are doing the worst part. it's our government. by allowing it happen, letting it to happen, they're letting down public and they down the british public and they will punished polls at will be punished at the polls at the election if they the next election if they continue allow this happen. continue to allow this happen. the simply not stand the people will simply not stand for now and the thing is, for it. now and the thing is, jenny, you can see that our pubuc jenny, you can see that our public services are coping. public services are not coping. so why do we actually want to increase our numbers at all? i yeah, i hear what you're saying, but something that our man said 2 minutes ago is that we are turning away not just from terrorists . we are turning away terrorists. we are turning away doctors and lawyers and cleaners

and people. we're not turning many of them away, jenny. we're not turning many of them like 98% of the folk from india who appued 98% of the folk from india who applied for a visa over the course of the last year, got what? so that's hardly been particularly selective or picky , is it? jd come on, we're talking about a particular group. people are talking about dinghies and i'm i do say that they do exist. many people on they do exist. many people on the left are saying that we do have to have control immigration because we need to see what's going to happen in the. but let me quote the benefits of freedom of movement have been cited by michael clement. we see the signing of at the centre for global development . if all global development. if all barriers to labour mobility for to be removed, the gdp would increase by 100. this is human . increase by 100. this is human. so, so, benjamin, let's just get rid of our borders. forget it. why why bother? be in the united kingdom. let's throw them open .

kingdom. let's throw them open. that's what the left really think, isn't it, benjamin? that is the truth of what the left really think. it's absolute ridiculous, this sort of shake neri with figures can't be allowed. it's like saying if we bnng allowed. it's like saying if we bring everyone to britain , bring everyone to britain, britain will have the biggest gdp the world. of gdp in the world. well, of course, be no course, because there'll be no one else to create one anywhere else to create economic prosperity economic movement and prosperity . look, at the end of the day, wherever going be wherever there's going to be people, going to be people, there's going to be domestic it's, you domestic product. it's, you know, put those know, wherever you put those people. quality people. but it's about quality of life. it's about the distribution of that domestic product. it's not just about creating endless territory. creating this endless territory. good point. but look, fascinating debate. you diametrically , which i diametrically opposed, which i love. that was the political commentator benjamin long and the broadcaster and actress jenny so who do you jenny bartlett. so who do you agree should the tories agree with? should the tories pursue a net zero migration policy? connor twitter says policy? connor on twitter says the uk is capacity. our interests arc should public service budgets and home building projects can never keep pace with increasing demand. we cannot a great standard cannot provide a great standard of life to citizens real refugees shut the borders . it's

refugees shut the borders. it's the sensible common sense , the sensible common sense, centrist position from iain conserve lives of the policy of mass migration as proven by the massive increase over the last 12 years. and from julian via email, we can have all the debates you like on immigration until we leave the chart. nothing will change. and do you know what julian? i completely agree i've been agree with you and i've been advocating for us to leave the channel for a long time now. and your verdict is now in our interest in this, 69% of you agree with lee anderson that we need a net zero migration policy. 31% of you oppose . policy. 31% of you oppose. coming up, as boris johnson announces he'll stand again at the next election is a churchillian return to number. the only way to stop reform uk surge in support for liverpool firebrand ann widdecombe explains why rishi should be worried. ambiguity style at 950. but next my royal masterminds colin campbell and phil dampier give their take on the decision to sack lady hussey, despite 60 years of loyally service to late

queen elizabeth, the great lady see and phil alive straight after. to the break .

now the woke media hysteria surrounding the palace race row is showing no sign of letting up after . 83 year old lady susan after. 83 year old lady susan hussey's unfortunate conversation with the charity boss ngozi fulani in which she

asked the activist where she was from. the late queen's lady in waiting since apologised and resigned from her role in the royal household, she had no though did she given her own godson, prince william had slammed the door firmly behind her, saying racism has no place in society . prime her, saying racism has no place in society. prime minister rishi sunak echoed those comments tonight . sunak echoed those comments tonight. some of the things that i experienced when i was a kid and a young person i don't think would happen today because our country's made incredible progress in tackling racism. but the job is never done. and that's why whenever we see it, we must confront it . and it's we must confront it. and it's right that we continue learn right that we continue to learn the lessons and move to a better future. now by our royal masterminds for their take on this developing story , philip this developing story, philip dampier and lady colin campbell. so ladies, see at the top of the show tonight, i the other side of this story because there is another side of it and the other side is that this woman, by all

accounts, even if she was offended, appears to be someone who's a member of the sussex squad, someone who has actively campaigned for harry and meghan and accused charles and camilla as being perpetrators of domestic violence against meghan, which is racist, which is just ridiculous. and we'll come to that in just a moment, ladies. but the first thing i wanted to ask you, we've got the prime minister now weighing in on this controversy, just taking in that what lady hussey in as rage that what lady hussey said was racist, is there anything racist , lady said was racist, is there anything racist, lady c about asking someone where they come from ? that's absolutely nothing from? that's absolutely nothing racist . not only is there racist. not only is there nothing racist about it, the fact of the matter is traditionally you always ask questions when you strange i do. when people come to the castle and they do it at the palace, you ask a variety of questions around where where someone is

from , you know, how long has it from, you know, how long has it taken you have you have long to travel. where are you from ? you travel. where are you from? you know, you asked a blonde from bristol where they're from. they're not going to take offence to it. most black people don't take offence. i thought this . first don't take offence. i thought this. first of don't take offence. i thought this . first of all, don't take offence. i thought this. first of all, was don't take offence. i thought this . first of all, was she this. first of all, was she dressed in a tribal way ? and dressed in a tribal way? and also if you dressed in tribal or national dress is , polite for national dress is, polite for your host took all where it is from or you are from. so i mean she actually a pair intended that she would be asked and you have to ask yourself why did she know go this she must have known that she was going to provoke the reaction she do. and you know, so jenny hussey, i have to tell you , had a great admirer in

tell you, had a great admirer in nelson mandela , really came nelson mandela, really came across . that's right. he came , across. that's right. he came, you know, and many of the household as well . and he sang household as well. and he sang the praises of all about so for this woman. i have to tell you also what she did is the sartorial equivalent of blackface , because she's not blackface, because she's notf she had no immediate origins from africa. her parents were beige. her real name is not and go see for now it is marlene . i go see for now it is marlene. i mean, she is a total invention of herself . and i would imagine of herself. and i would imagine what she really did to that about the question what that she was going to have to say basic actually, and not from africa and tricks didn't even close and my name is and go on fascinating

phil dampier we now live in a world where an 83 year old who has provided 68 years of loyal service to the late queen. i mean, let's just remember, lady susan hussey was the woman who queen elizabeth, the great chose to ride in that solemn and sombre car journey to the funeral of her husband, phil. and because of a social media outrage and a bunch of woke warriors in the media going mad , she's thrown under the bus. but you say this is something prince william and king charles had to do . i think i can had to do. i think i can understand why they did it. and that evening i can understand that evening i can understand that they didn't want it to overshadow the trip to boston. they panicking, but they they were panicking, but they have to around have something to throw around this. and someone who's given 60, as you can say, a great friend of the queen, 60, is a service. i think kate , a service. i think kate, a complete overreaction. and it is bowing down to the that's that

takes a moral if you like. i mean it's the sort of thing that she said to the prince philip used to say on a regular basis. i mean, i've written two books full his quotes. you spoke to full of his quotes. you spoke to guests saying this sort of thing, because ago, his thing, because 15 years ago, his more but what i more accessible. but what i don't understand about this woman gold that on her woman in gold is that on her website her twitter feed, website and on her twitter feed, it says that she's been website and on her twitter feed, it campaigning that she's been website and on her twitter feed, it campaigning fort she's been website and on her twitter feed, it campaigning fort she's iofen in campaigning for women of african caribbean heritage. in campaigning for women of africyet caribbean heritage. in campaigning for women of africyet when|ribbean heritage. in campaigning for women of africyet when ladyean heritage. in campaigning for women of africyet when ladyean h sheige. and yet when lady how she finally nailed it down that's where that was a heritage from that was all wrong. so i don't quite know what they we quite know what they want. we see risk i think of where see the risk i think of where the royal family is going under charles and william is that they have immediately got rid of the queen's philosophy of never complain , they'd never complain, they'd never explained. that's out the window . now ladies are acting more like politicians or more like celebrities. but the risk of that lady c is not going to have to keep on giving in to the woke mob. and the woke mob, especially in america , is out to especially in america, is out to destroy the royal family and

destroy the royal family and destroy the royal family and destroy the british monarchy . so destroy the british monarchy. so don't they have to sort of start standing up against this nonsense rather than giving into it ? well, i actually think that it? well, i actually think that their comments and reactions have been perceived epithets, ill advised and premature . you ill advised and premature. you know, it's the knee jerk reaction , a panicked reaction , reaction, a panicked reaction, because this woman who doesn't even go on to her real name and doesn't wear clothes from her royal rage, even though she's really pretending or presenting a selfie , she's not. oh, you a selfie, she's not. oh, you know, they they should have been more considered . and i tell you more considered. and i tell you what, they should, because i was at magdalene last night when all of this broke with spread. and one of them made the point that the palestinians reaction was wildly inappropriate. all they needed to say. but this is a

very regrettable, misguided standing, and that's what they should have done. and they should have done. and they should have done. and they should have made it clear that susan hussey is apt, deliberately not racist . she has deliberately not racist. she has interacted with black leaders for the last 60 to. oh yeah , 62 for the last 60 to. oh yeah, 62 years without a problem . then years without a problem. then all of a sudden she comes across this meghan appalled and she said, who? who who is dressed like a christmas tree? and when she asked where are you from? oh she asked where are you from? oh she takes offence. why did she take the face? the fact of the matter is that none of this should be happening and should have had a very measured response , which was lady susan response, which was lady susan has been a member of this. yeah so i mean, look, i loved i loved the dress . i so i mean, look, i loved i loved the dress. i had no problem so i mean, look, i loved i loved the dress . i had no problem with the dress. i had no problem with the dress. i had no problem with the dress. i had no problem with the dress . i thought she looked the dress. i thought she looked great, but it was the sort of dress, i guess, that does spark

quest channing fell or at least people pointed out interest . people pointed out interest. what concerns me, dan, is what's going to happen if harry name's in his book or in this netflix the royal who so—called but the alleged royal we're asked about archie's skin skin colour we'll talk about tom bower whose hair later in his book has already named that individual as camilla and charles right so as commander in chief. so what are they going to do? how are they going to react to that? are they going to react to that? are they going to react to that? are they going to apologise for rex? are they going to exactly take opened up the floodgates? as you say, no to it. is say, there's no end to it. is you what, how they're you know what, how they're actually going react actually going to react to something that, because something like that, because once drop never once you drop the never complain, explain, you'll complain, never explain, you'll stop road of stop down this this road of trying to justify. and it's very, very dangerous. and very, very dangerous. yes. and also, are not also, remember, they are not just to appeal people just trying to appeal to people now to destroy the now who are out to destroy the royal family. these same people also want the united kingdom in bankrupt by decades and decades

of reparations. and actually, that's where it's headed. and i think the royals reaction to this has been i agree with the abc, i think it's been knee jerk and it could have repercussions in the future. but look, fascinating to hear both of the perspectives of our royal masterminds. best authors, phil dampier and lady colin campbell . but coming up, as chris whitty and patrick vallance finally admit, lockdowns are killers, should the government commit to never forcing us and locking us inside our homes again by superstar panel, we turn to debate that in the was a ten and we'll have the first of tomorrow newspapers too. but first, with reform uk surging the polls is bofis reform uk surging the polls is boris to announcement boris johnson to announcement that stand at the that he'll stand at the next election . music ears of election. music to the ears of red wall mps fearing their red wall mps fearing for their seats . political firebrand ann seats. political firebrand ann widdecombe breaks that down. big whitney style coming up straight after break .

time now for a big, witty style. and prime minister fishy rishi sunak has been in charge for a little more than a month, but already he's facing serious electoral threats . firstly, electoral threats. firstly, reform growing in appeal. reform uk growing in appeal. according to the latest yougov poll not poll as tweeted. not surprisingly by reform party leader richard tice, who's here on monday night, they've hit a new high of 9% voting intention, with ties rating on points it upwards double figures . upwards into double figures. what's worse is that telegraph has revealed today that former pm boris johnson, perhaps the only man capable knocking only man capable of knocking down the great wall once more and stopping reform has and of stopping reform uk has officially he will officially announced he will stand again at the next general action. so with boris, the man who likely would have eton rishi in the leadership race had he not pulled stayed the not pulled out, stayed in the political how far can he political ring, how far can he go look to real challenges go and look to real challenges for rishi sunak here a surge, surging reform uk and the not going anywhere. boris johnson

who's the biggest threat to you? well, i think the bigger one is, is probably boris because of the membership . we now know from membership. we now know from polls the membership did not like budget. the membership want it. trotter nomics and if she hadnt it. trotter nomics and if she hadn't so come apprehensively bungled the delivery of it and we might have a whole new conservative resurgence but we haven't . and all he is doing is haven't. and all he is doing is more of the same. so he's not inspiring anybody. now, whatever you may think about boris and i think lots of things about boris, but whatever you may think about boris, he does inspire people. now, as for the reform party, the brutal truth is it's not a huge respect , but is it's not a huge respect, but the brutal truth is that when general elections come along , general elections come along, small parties do not prevail. and we saw that with the mighty usdp . i mean, you had very, very usdp. i mean, you had very, very big , significant figures and you big, significant figures and you kept and you kept . and then, of kept and you kept. and then, of course, the brexit party in 2019, when you have a general

election, people's minds are concentrated not on what they want , but on concentrated not on what they want, but on what concentrated not on what they want , but on what they don't want, but on what they don't want, but on what they don't want . and so if they don't want want. and so if they don't want corbyn or they don't want starmer, they don't want miliband , whoever it might be , miliband, whoever it might be, it looks like it's going to be. we'll have that now. they're going to vote. they're not going to you know they're going to vote. you know they're going to vote. you know they're going to conservative. no to vote conservative. no circumstances, any other circumstances, not for any other party. their party. because in their reasoning , the conservatives are reasoning, the conservatives are the who can actually the only one who can actually defeat what they not want. defeat what they do not want. now that is the mentality with which people approach the election. at the election. but of course at the last election and it was this deal that nigel and the deal that nigel farage and the brexit party, which you were a member of at the time, very reluctantly agreed to that allowed boris to secure that landslide. you know, they they stood down in the seats where a sense surely they would have provided a spoiler alert to stop the tories winning viraj and tie are both being absolutely certain that come the next election they are going hard.

they're running in every seat. there is no deal to be had . there is no deal to be had. well, of course the conservatives would not do a deal with the brexit party last time and they probably thought when they saw the size of the majority that they had done the right thing . but of course what right thing. but of course what they left behind was a people who distrusting them on brexit. and it turns out to be right that we did not trust them on brexit, who distrusted them on brexit, who distrusted them on brexit will take advantage in the future . so i feel very the future. so i feel very strong. you know, we've had all these comments about, you know, brexit has had a negative impact on the economy done, it hasn't had a negative, it hasn't had a positive because nobody's done anything with brexit . i don't. anything with brexit. i don't. and instead they've been distracted by terrible lockdown downs, by a war in ukraine and not doing anything positive, which is why we had hope, didn't we? i know we both did with charles. yeah can we just talk

about boris, though? because let me put a scenario to you. if reform uk continue to sneak up in the polls and let's just say the may local elections are at 15, that's the key . or maybe 15, that's the key. or maybe even 20% had of the tory party really going to stick by sunak when they have an electoral well, a proven election winner saying guys, i'm ready , i think saying guys, i'm ready, i think they will stick by sunak for one reason only they've had enough changes. now they can't afford another. situation of chaos is the one thing they can't afford . and frankly, i think if sunak went out and committed mass murder, they would still say, well, we must stick with that because they do not want a replay of the ludicrous circumstance it means that they are going to be wiped out. the backbenchesi are going to be wiped out. the backbenches i think you will find that the backbench is think that's inevitable anyway . i mean that's inevitable anyway. i mean that's inevitable anyway. i mean that there is a terrible bunker

mentality, whereas what there ought to be is what truss in a very brief period was at least offering, which is go out there, grab the agenda , make the most grab the agenda, make the most of brexit , become competitive of brexit, become competitive with the eu, lower taxes , make with the eu, lower taxes, make this the sort of country that people want to come and work in. i mean, why would you want to come and work in britain? give them the tax rate? it's insane. if you in £125,000, you know, the daily telegraph said this week, certain situations you week, in certain situations you could actually be paying on some of pound 93 p in taxes. of your pound 93 p in taxes. well, do you know what i'm going to say? i still think there's a chance of boris being leader by the next election, because i don't see sunak shifting these polls. i really don't. and i think he is working in a sensible way to build up his support on the backbench. he pulled out of the last leadership contest to try and be magnanimous. i don't know. i just don't rule it out. i think he pulled out of the last leadership contest not to be magnanimous , but because magnanimous, but because he

fought , you know, there was fought, you know, there was nothing but trouble ahead. he fought, you know, there was nche ng but trouble ahead. he fought, you know, there was nche tookrt trouble ahead. he fought, you know, there was nche took ittrouble ahead. he fought, you know, there was nche took it onrble ahead. he fought, you know, there was nche took it on again1ead. he fought, you know, there was nche took it on again .zad. he fought, you know, there was nche took it on again . so. he if he took it on again. so i think he needs a bit of time before coming back . but the key before coming back. but the key what you passed over very quickly is what happens in the local election . yeah, that's the local election. yeah, that's the key . but i am local election. yeah, that's the key. but i am predicting a tory wipe—out and i think the key point will be what percentage does reform uk get to and that could provide the real impetus to potentially have another lead. i think one of your big problems is that if you took a microphone out onto the streets , an awful lot of people couldn't tell you anything about the reform party. indeed and that's there may need to be that's why there may need to be the faraj factor at some point to know who and where he can go. right. to see it coming up. oh, the sussexes deliberately sabotaging william and kate's royal tour and the monarchy itself by revealing a new bombshell trailer for the netflix reality show. well, esteemed royal biographer tom bower and our special correspondent for kate and wills, us to samantha markle

journalist john sage, and the author and broadcaster amy nicholl. now if you wondered about the curious disappearance of the government's chief covid scare , officer chris whitty. scare, officer chris whitty. well, i have some news for you, like mild respiratory virus making a seasonal return . whitty making a seasonal return. whitty has made a sensational public reappearance today to finally admit what we've been moaning about for years . the madness of about for years. the madness of lockdowns and his draconian response to covid, which is killing people. the uk's chief medical officer said britain was for in a, quote, prolonged penod for in a, quote, prolonged period of high death rates because people stayed away from the nhs during the pandemic who could not get treatment . and in could not get treatment. and in a sick punchline in he and vallance, the chief scientific adviser, acknowledged that obsessive pleas to protect the nhs during covid will likely now lead to significant numbers of brits dying of conditions such as heart disease and cancer. in the months and years ahead ,

the months and years ahead, which he was paid the months and years ahead, which he was pai d £200,000 a which he was paid £200,000 a year by us for this kind of information. people like me and actually countless others here at gb news and beyond have been telling you for free and much earlier that this is exactly what would happen . in fact, what would happen. in fact, we've been the only broadcast willing to cover the spiralling access death scandal post covid for more than half a year, with reported, investigated and questioned. what could be causing thousands more brits to die before their time? while the likes of the bbc sky news , itv likes of the bbc sky news, itv and channel 4 haven't given a. ridiculously despite their late realisation today , whitty and realisation today, whitty and vallance say the next virus could lead to longer lockdowns and more social distancing . so and more social distancing. so it feels like they have learnt nothing . in the case of covid. nothing. in the case of covid. the cure was worse than the disease . but we told you that disease. but we told you that already . and christine hamilton already. and christine hamilton , i thought earlier tonight

about one of those early press conferences , you know, the conferences, you know, the government, we were all locked in our homes. government used to a press conference every night. we gathered around the television waiting for the press . and so particular day, . and so this particular day, bofis . and so this particular day, boris was on. and i knew boris johnson was on. and i knew i going to be asking one of i was going to be asking one of the press the questions at the press conference, and i reached out to my friend, who's a regular on the professor the show, professor carol sikora, was telling sikora, because he was telling me constant basis how me on a constant basis how concerned he was about the ticking cancer timebomb as a result of lockdowns . and this result of lockdowns. and this was in the first lockdown. this is back in 2020. and at that press conference, boris johnson guaranteed that no one would miss out on life saving cancer treatment. look at what's happened now . and these idiots, happened now. and these idiots, not boris or the rest of these idiots, were still telling us to lockdown in december last year . lockdown in december last year. i know. it's like the return of the vampires. we now get you know, dr. grim and dr. ripper coming back on our screens to tell us what we were telling

them. people like you and others, when they said we were conspiracy theorists, i mean, granny killers. exactly. and they have people have been bombarding them with with the fact that have now fact that they have now amazingly that people amazingly discovered that people are dying of other are going to be dying of other things. is it is things. i mean, it is it is unbelievable . and man, unbelievable. and this man, whitty, is the chief health whitty, he is the chief health officer . he whitty, he is the chief health officer. he wasn't whitty, he is the chief health officer . he wasn't the whitty, he is the chief health officer. he wasn't the chief covid avoidance officer. he was the chief health officer. his job was overall health of the nafion job was overall health of the nation . and he the fact that he nation. and he the fact that he couldn't see what he was doing by lockdown, i mean , it is by lockdown, i mean, it is absolutely mind boggling . and as absolutely mind boggling. and as you say, pa y £200,000 a year to you say, pay £200,000 a year to help plunge this economy into doom and gloom. i mean, and the nhs untold worst the exception because part of the reason why we're in such a mess now and we've got, you know, spiralling inflation and high taxes, etc. it's a covid living crisis. well, i'd say i'd say it's the whole reason. well, it's at least putin has some at least a large part of a large part to how they have the nerve not to

come forward and say, oh, my goodness, some people are going to die of other things. well and i mean, they are dying in their droves. i remember a time and time again during 2020, say this cure is worse than the disease . cure is worse than the disease. i draw issue at that, though, because i don't think that's conclusive at all. i believe it's completely up for debate and actually a lot of scientists would suggest that we should have looked down earlier for a shorter . you have looked down earlier for a shorter. you may have asked me. i mean, i'm sorry. i've got to do you genuinely think if we'd locked down two weeks earlier, we would be in a better place? look at china. they're all cut. china has a massacre of scientists. an economist that would agree with me on that and rather than you and i don't think they're completely the villain people like. i thinks we should have done a very covid policy in this country. i mean, it just you must you must deny vilifying. vilifying to scientists who were paid to model, not predict the future . model, not predict the future. and they've said they never said

a lockdown would be good. they just said these are the is the least bad of the options. and, of course, there are going to be side effects. and a lot of them are really, really negative. but that cost of covid. but that is the cost of covid. but those rather than lockdown, entirely lockdown also is a side effect of covid leaked to the media and presented in a disastrous way , leaving the disastrous way, leaving the politicians with very little choice, although personally , i choice, although personally, i think they should have the politicians not take the advice the whole way through. proving my point that we should have lockdown earlier had they taken . but i mean, if you look at china and still think the answer is really a long shot as economies is short shops economies is short in shops across the you two combined. one journalist somebody like this just way off into exaggeration about thousands of their sun . we about thousands of their sun. we don't care they're trying to murder. never mention what you talk about repairs. you know it's these two is two eminent properties . it's these two is two eminent properties. their job it's these two is two eminent properties . theirjob should be properties. theirjob should be trying to kill people that is going to now. all right,

christine, can i just have just no.can christine, can i just have just no. can we just have a little bit more sense out of this? there pointing out that, in fact, as amy said, there was no there were no good options. it was always the least bad option . it's much easier to consider these things with hindsight, of course, they knew perfectly well that people were not getting the care that they would normally get the lockdown . get because of the lockdown. everybody knew they knew everybody knew this. they knew that and providing that schools and providing a proper education. wait a minute. and come on, daniel, you've had a really good go this, you a really good go at this, you two if these people are sort two as if these people are sort of sinister public servants . of sinister public servants. they're they're eminent they're not. they're eminent people who are trying to do their in an extraordinary their best in an extraordinary moment. so you can get towards the scientists . i don't have the scientists. i don't have anger towards these particular pubuc anger towards these particular public servants. i do not feel ferguson no, not going to ferguson no, i'm not going to over everything goes on, as you talked about, covid no, he was not there a lot. neil fergus i'm not there a lot. neil fergus i'm not talking him. these two not talking about him. these two pubuc not talking about him. these two public had an appalling public servants had an appalling in difficult their in me, difficult job on their hands. other thing to hands. and the other thing to bear mind sometimes when

bear in mind is sometimes when you on all this, like you look back on all this, like the second world war, you think, oh, we shouldn't done oh, we shouldn't have done that. shouldn't wrong, shouldn't the raid was wrong, all things were wrong. all kinds of things were wrong. what you have what you what you could have remember that at a time like remember is that at a time like that, politicians are being screamed at public . do screamed at by the public. do something. so they then something. yeah. so they then respond. and part of what they're doing is to keep morale up of the public . when you look up of the public. when you look back on these things with your logic, you simply say, oh, that was unnecessary and that was unnecessary. at the time. i give you jolly clap if you examine you a jolly clap if you examine the time, the answers to what they were calling for so long. that's too much. sometimes we need leaders who are brave are going unpopular going to make unpopular decisions churchill did decisions like churchill did dunng decisions like churchill did during ii. kristie, during world war ii. kristie, people were nobody's saying that they were evil or had evil intent where you were going in the ground, regardless of how, goodness sake. that a goodness sake. that was a throwaway joke. well, joke throwaway joke. well, some joke , vilification of these is , a vilification of these two is they do anything all. i'm they do anything at all. i'm sorry, actually a sorry, john. i actually think a lot of the actions of these scientists was completely evil because they actually did ,

because what they actually did, what they actually ended up doing , john, destroying doing, john, was destroying lives , taking away young people. lives, taking away young people. this is i mean, you're destroying me for a virus with a 99 point . thank you all for the, 99 point. thank you all for the, let's say, 1% of the population died . that's a pretty big died. that's a pretty big number. i think they're really trying to point 8% survivals. it was 1110 you you are destroying and leading this language by using phrases like evil and all. oh, no , these people were not oh, no, these people were not well. okay you speak to me. no, they are. what i people who have lost relatives and you out of lockdown policies which are unnecessary and they believe that those policies were . of that those policies were. of course, i know you can't with people in that position and all you can do is say, i'm very sorry for your loss. you cannot say, i'm going to argue out of this. of course not. they'll always feel better about it. now feel world was a the whole feel the world was a the whole world was against them. and there flip it do the there you can flip it and do the

people died, you can make people that died, you can make it better them. it's not it better for them. it's not possible. well, i'm not possible. nobody. well, i'm not saying that they were intentionally i not intentionally evil. i did not say what i do say is say that. but what i do say is that i am astonished that now they round agree they turn round and agree with what very large number of what a very large number of people are saying. yes they were shown they made very tough. shown they they made very tough. nobody like i who were warning says all this. they did they said that we were doing a shouting stop here. you've got to allow our reply. they were not at any point. no, no. alright but they were not saying dunng alright but they were not saying during the lockdown and all the time that we were watching and following events as closely as we could, they were not saying, but don't worry, it'll be brilliant, this is brilliant, it'll be okay. your health concerns will be answered by war and you get no. then i can actually present you. i just told you about boris. i know in that press conference sign on the record, flanked by whitty and hancock. don't worry if you've got cancer, you are absolutely going to get your life saving treatment. lied life saving treatment. they lied to us, so you want to show

to us, john. so you want to show we couldn't go to jail? we couldn't that can go back. couldn't go to that can go back. we see dale. we couldn't go we can see dale. we couldn't go to gp , we couldn't to to the gp, we couldn't go to hospital. so we knew our health was suffering, was wrong. well, of was wrong . and of of course it was wrong. and of course you shouldn't have had the but we were in no the pandemic, but we were in no position to control it like that. can't can't. that. you can't you can't. couple shouldn't had the couple we shouldn't have had the pandemic shouldn't have couple we shouldn't have had the pan

people have lost the plot. they were mad and unfortunately were power mad and unfortunately i this inquiry into covid i think this inquiry into covid is all going to be stacked in the favour of the scientists. so you cannot rule out a lockdown. and if future pandemics, you just can't be trusted . now you just can't be trusted. now you become prime minister. mean, become prime minister. i mean, madness trusted. just madness to be trusted. just that. think she i know that. and i think she i know what very sensible worst what very sensible the worst prime british prime minister in british history happened to the establishment . that's what establishment. that's what happened now . do you think she happened now. do you think she would be the great prime minister certainly no example of other and are other countries. and there are other countries. and there are other countries. and there are other countries such other countries not have such a serious she came out serious lockdown. she came out of in a much better state, of it in a much better state, but they're very different countries, very different example generally. example of sweden generally. they government, so they trust their government, so they much they followed advice much more than would them all have than we would have them all have today. so here we are. i do presenting you with evidence of a country where actually they took a much more sensible approach and they allowed the sage to make them more intelligent than us because they know. i'm not saying some things that they live by. so it's another thing is they live in.

tell us, do they trust the government? no, it was just the right policy. we don't know yet. that's the real answer, isn't it? we don't tell this one. we do know one point about florida , one point about sweden. they're spread out. you can go to your you can retire to your homes with a lot of countryside around you. you're banging around you. you're not banging together are on this together like we are on this country. more there's country. even more now. there's high population density. it's much harder to do that. and so you can go back in time. what if we lockdown? you can't do that . we lockdown? you can't do that. so we don't know. we know china is suffering them. those we know because reality problem is for folk like you , you know, you folk like you, you know, you have typically normal. i know you have to, but you were hoodwinked by the government . hoodwinked by the government. you had to be pulled over your eyes. so you have to go with this because you had because this because you had to. because otherwise on earth can otherwise how on earth can you accept oh, goodness, we accept that? oh, my goodness, we gave up two years of our lives on necessarily. you have to on necessarily. so you have to go that narrative. but go with that narrative. but look, i'm going to couch john. sergeant christine hamilton, thanks fight coming

sergeant christine hamilton, tha|as fight coming sergeant christine hamilton, tha|as the fight coming sergeant christine hamilton, tha|as the governmentt coming sergeant christine hamilton, tha|as the government runs ing sergeant christine hamilton, tha|as the government runs out up, as the government runs out of cells, is it time to reform the british justice system and send people to prison or send fewer people to prison or do we need to build more prisons now , my superstar are now, my superstar panel are going debate that in going to debate that in mediabuzz, but first, harry mediabuzz, too. but first, harry and deliver at least and meghan deliver at least sabotaging william and kate's royal tour and the monarchy itself by releasing new itself by releasing their new bombshell. netflix trailer. esteemed royal biographer tom bower and meghan's estranged sister, the mark. we'll sister, cement the mark. we'll tackle straight after the tackle that straight after the break .

time now for another dose of unrivalled royal analysis. and yesterday, the prince and princess of wales touched down for the first american visit in eight years to buoyantly promote the earthshot prize awards , but the earthshot prize awards, but they couldn't have expected from their boston base camp was the montecito miss . while that montecito miss. while that threatened to torpedo their entire trip with harry and meghan releasing this angry trailer for their long awaited netflix reality show today , why netflix reality show today, why did you want to make this documentary . you documentary. you. no one sees what's happening behind closed

doors . i what's happening behind closed doors. i do what's happening behind closed doors . i do everything i could doors. i do everything i could to protect my family . when to protect my family. when the stakes are this high , does it stakes are this high, does it make more sense to hear our story from us ? so who better to story from us? so who better to dissect this all out attack from the duke and duchess of woke the meghan markle's biographer, tom bower, and her estranged sister, samantha markle, our special correspondent for the wales state side to a so look tom if anyone was in any that harry and meghan are not only out to destroy kate and william's tour , but potentially the future of the monarchy itself. i think this trailer puts that debate . this trailer puts that debate. oh, absolutely. i was in buckingham palace tonight. i'd be terrified is the worst nightmare come true? because in

that syrupy trailer , the that syrupy trailer, the mournful tears for duchess and the prince saying about his own family how to protect . but in family how to protect. but in the end, it's a threat . i mean, the end, it's a threat. i mean, they've declared war and the war is we're going to give our version of events and we're going to tell it in our terms. and netflix have put so much money effort into it. we're talking about everyone else's as well . and it's going to really well. and it's going to really cause the damage that they want to see. to mark mil disney to meghan markle and prince harry want to do , which is to destroy want to do, which is to destroy the british royal family as an act of as i called my book revenge . and tom, when you look revenge. and tom, when you look at the way that the trailer was produced and remember, they would have had total involvement in this , the way that kate and in this, the way that kate and william in particular is portrayed by the choice of the image, the selection of music is that they are the horrible , bad

that they are the horrible, bad colonialists , monarchy versus colonialists, monarchy versus the heroic, woke and honest , not the heroic, woke and honest, not sussexes the big issue is, of course, is that because of royal tradition, the sussexes know full well that charles and camilla and william and kate, the other ones that are silenced, that's the irony in this. they can't fight back , can this. they can't fight back, can they? they can't speak out . they? they can't speak out. well, they can't speak out. they've chosen not to speak out. i think in the end they will have to speak out because i think the attack is going to be so vicious and poisonous that the king will have to make some sort of statement, some sort of explanation, as will william. the point is when i mean, they don't want to get into the gutter with the sussexes and they don't want to boost harry's book so to but it book sales. so to speak. but it will strip their titles now. book sales. so to speak. but it will si'ip their titles now. book sales. so to speak. but it will si think ir titles now. book sales. so to speak. but it will si think you'lls now. book sales. so to speak. but it will si think you'll have'. book sales. so to speak. but it will si think you'll have to do sure. i think you'll have to do something. he that's the least he can do . but i do think at he can do. but i do think at some stage they're going to have to put their side of the story, which is meghan was welcome in britain. she was given every

opportunity , but she never opportunity, but she never really wanted to stay . she saw really wanted to stay. she saw the whole thing as an opportunity to build her own career . and opportunity to build her own career. and this is what the this is what the trade is all about. she's an actress in this regard. well, yeah, she is an actress and she's acting. but to me, this was a 59 second declare nafion me, this was a 59 second declare nation of all out. well, is exactly we've discussed over the last months. well, of course, of course. but tom, it's still absolute shocking when you think the queen has been dead a matter of weeks . charles is still angry of weeks. charles is still angry . he hasn't even had his coronation. and yet they are pressing ahead , pressing ahead pressing ahead, pressing ahead because there's money in it and there's their fame in it. and of course, until the coronation and every other week, they'll be pontificating. and it really it is really terrifying for the monarchy and for britain, because in the end, it's not just the monarchy which has been damaged, but they're trashing britain. they're trashing our reputation. our institute, our

values everything, all for their own purpose. and it's terribly disloyal of harry. it's treacherous of harry to go along with . what is meghan's plot, with. what is meghan's plot, aided by netflix for their own profits, right? sure. it's very good word. well, look, tom, i want to cross now to the us where we bring in our special state side correspondent for william and kate's to us, samantha markle, who is, of course, the duchess sussex's, estranged sister. samantha, you will reaction to this bombshell trailer, please ? wow. wow well, trailer, please? wow. wow well, you all know, i mean, first of all, we're in this era of totally contrary definitions . totally contrary definitions. you know, so many things seem to be completely opposite of what really are. we're redefining everything . and so the job everything. and so the job i think the jaw dropper for me was harry can saying that he's going to do he's had to do everything

he could to protect his family and, you know, when i got out the dictionary, i couldn't find the dictionary, i couldn't find the way they treated the royal family. are our family anywhere in the in the dictionary under protect ? it's like i thought, protect? it's like i thought, what is he talking about? this is not protection . it's you is not protection. it's you know, if we're watching a series over here, the one we're watching is like a series of attacks , one after the other , attacks, one after the other, and it seems irreparable . it and it seems irreparable. it makes no sense whatsoever . so makes no sense whatsoever. so the touchy feely netflix clip was like a really bad slice of life commercial. and when you contrast it with what's going on in reality, it makes no sense whatsoever. it is the most atrocious decoy, in my opinion . atrocious decoy, in my opinion. and so this concocted from reality, it's quite it's quite sad it's i've in shocking for all of us and of course they timed the release of this

trailer didn't they, to completely overshadow kate and william's work in the us. absolutely. this is this is like al khor pone plotting from chicago . how to do that his best chicago. how to do that his best to destroy not just the royal family, but kate and william's river, of course, is they've got a form on this a long time ago when kate and william did a trip to pakistan , harry and meghan to pakistan, harry and meghan plotted the destruction of that trip by announcing their suits and writs against the mail on sunday. i mean, is she's very, very clever. meghan no one should underestimate the way in which she plans and plots to promote herself and her narrative and everyone else's expense. and samantha and her father know full well , as father know full well, as samantha said rightly warned the british royal family right at the beginning of this horrendous relationship , that just as the relationship, that just as the same as meghan did to her father, she'll do to harry's father, she'll do to harry's father and his family , you would

father and his family, you would say, right, samantha ? and no one say, right, samantha? and no one paid enough attention to you then and now we've been warning for ages on this program how this netflix series and harry's bookis this netflix series and harry's book is to cause irreparable damage. am i fear is that the palace will not be swift enough and ruthless enough and pointed enough to make sure that the sussexes get there just as somehow i fear they're going to get away with it. i agree. look final final question, samantha, to you are you worried from a markle family prospect negative about negative revelation involving you in the reality series? because, of course, there are images in that trailer of meghan looking very upset on her phone, images of newspapers . possibly there will be some attacks on both you and your brother and also your father . brother and also your father. no, actually, i'm not, because so far everything has just been, you know , my opinion. i think

you know, my opinion. i think the world has you know, most journalists have come out and attested to the fact that we've witnessed, like after lie. and so i think that seems to be status quo . and on those status quo. and on those grounds, i'm not worried about it, you know, and god, you mentioned music . if i were to mentioned music. if i were to put a music bed to that clip. yes. instead of whatever the tosh was, they had go on that was weak and fluffy. i think i would more appropriately put something like the thompson twins lines under. something like the thompson twins lines under . yeah, as the twins lines under. yeah, as the sound, but it was just it was ridiculous. yeah okay. that's that's probably a good note to end it on, i imagine. samantha markle , a special correspondent markle, a special correspondent for kate and william's us tour and the top royal author , meghan and the top royal author, meghan markle's biographer, tom bower. thank you both so much. but coming up, has ofcom warns lower income households to persist on the underserved by the corporation? is it further proof that the british bashing

corporation is only interested in entertaining lefty snobs and the woke elite? while our man of the woke elite? while our man of the people, charlie lawson, has all the answers, he joins me at 1045. the next to in the media bias as the government runs out of cells. should we reform by sending people prison or sending less people to prison or should more prisons should we build more prisons to keep delivering tough justice by superstar panel returns debate that after the break .

let's turn to tomorrow as you sign out in the media buzz. first, front pages in. and while it's been quite a day for covid in san jose, hasn't it? the mail reports revelation from former health secretary matt hancock to expose his new book that ministers bonkers ministers considered a bonkers plan thousands of plan to release thousands of prisoners the pandemic . prisoners during the pandemic. also, i just think it's very fascinating way that they've pulled out that iron flattering image of kate used in the netflix trailer , which allies of

netflix trailer, which allies of william say is a declaration of war. that's exactly how i described it in my column for the mail online today, the daily telegraph reports on a major setback in the war for common sense. a free speech law designed to prevent universities from cancelling controversial speakers has watered down speakers has been watered down by government. by the government. cancel culture now only be culture victims will now only be able sue over freedom of able to sue over freedom of speech breaches as a last resort will have to prove they suffered a and hsc union chiefs plan a loss and hsc union chiefs plan to meet to talk about a joint christmas strike . that's christmas strike. that's according to the guardian. the nhs is set to grind to a halt on december 20th, under plans by nurses, ambulance workers and hospital shame on them . hospital staff. shame on them. the sussexes dominate the express front page following the trailer revealed for the netflix series. the publication runs the but very pertinent question. harry, do you really hate your family so much ? i'm afraid the family so much? i'm afraid the answer to that is yes. the daily star also leaning on harry and meghan. this is the best coverage of it, though.

absolutely. adore this pointed out that the world shows global celebrities promise tell celebrities who promise to tell the world about their the entire world about their innermost secrets in their news series they headline publicity shy couple share most intimate secrets with 8 billion people. brilliant and more in the media house now with tonight's superstar panel, the author and broadcaster christine hamilton, the political the esteemed political journalist john sargeant , and journalist john sargeant, and the author and broadcaster amy nicholl. this week, prisons minister damian hinds announced that he has operation safeguard , which allows convicted criminals to be housed in local police stations, rather than designated prisons. crisis hit jails nearly at capacity . over jails nearly at capacity. over 83,000 inmates across england and wales . and the scandal means and wales. and the scandal means taxpayers will face forking out millions to house criminals in police cells. at on e £50 police cells. at one £50 a night. around 1500 extra convicts have been jailed in the past two months with the crisis at its worst in the north of england. the shortage is only temporary, but it poses a bigger question are we giving up on proper justice? john sargeant

surely the answer is we just build more prisons . well, no, build more prisons. well, no, the we try and make sure that the we try and make sure that the criminal barristers don't go on strike . we also make sure . on strike. we also make sure. but when whenever a judge is put in a position of i would like to convict you, but i can't, because there aren't enough places in prison . i mean, that places in prison. i mean, that is really terrible . you can't be is really terrible. you can't be in that position. so the government gets full blame if we place now down. this is one of those cases where the total blame goes on the government. they should have had more spaces available. it's not a matter of shouting about whether prison works or doesn't work. the system at the moment is perfectly clear. there are people sent prison. people being sent to prison. they must have prison spaces for them . another completely them. another completely separate argument is does prison work? and that kind of thing. i'm not considering that for the moment. the moment i'm moment. at the moment i'm thinking straight thinking this is straight forward. friend forward. our old friend incompetence. if incompetence. okay. but if we if we if we don't have enough places, suggest places, does that suggest that the are overpopulated the prisons are overpopulated with shouldn't be in with people that shouldn't be in prison? well, who you say a

very, very quick remedy to this would be taking out the 20% of people, the prison population , people, the prison population, who are in the for drugs related charges, who arguably shouldn't be there. what you making? 5. oh really? well, 45. even better . a really? well, 45. even better. a nafion really? well, 45. even better. a nation of drugs and immigration detention accounts for nearly 50% of people who are. if i remember writing that you don't believe in prisons at all. do you know? because if prisons worked? we would see results and we wouldn't see re—offending rates to sky rocketing as they are. prison doesn't work . it's are. prison doesn't work. it's been proven not to work. it's to keep very dangerous people out of society. and for those people , absolutely, prison is necessary. but the bulk of the prison population, it does no good being that. and it just proves them to re—offend when they come out and it does nothing. christine prison is about being a deterrent. i mean, what is it? it shouldn't be a deterrent and it should be. anchorage, lesotho said that people this is what happens do if that. but let me just if you do that. but let me just think. well of course we do. and

this is another example of lack hindsight. have been hindsight. we should have been building more nuclear power stations years we stations 20, ten years ago. we didn't. should been didn't. and we should have been building more prison out of our out 80,000, roughly prisoners, 3500 are albanian , 725 are 3500 are albanian, 725 are romanian . so that's a very small romanian. so that's a very small we have plenty of foreign nationals in our prisons. maybe we should repatriate them so they can serve their sentence elsewhere. indeed. but we know. but it's not the drugs and immigration and all the stuff. but you mentioned you mentioned the courts very, very quickly. there an enormous number there are an enormous number of people in prison people who are still in prison on remand, waiting for their cases handled right. cases to be handled right. however, that's what's causing these striking criminal barristers. they negotiated and they got 13% pay rise. so the they got a 13% pay rise. so the now. yes, but that's not just over a year backlog is getting as usual. these things are much more . we will throw more complicated. we will throw these around . oh, they these figures around. oh, they get 30. they get this. everything on did everything depends on when did they have pay increase. they last have a pay increase. but my point is that but i think my point is that negotiations can have no

business as usual, which she was . strategy would also mean that this country would, in a spiralling inflation and because of all of the pay rises. but that's a whole other story. now forget leave. we remain. it's time we finally tackled the defining of our era. is defining question of our era. is it jam or cream that goes first on scone ? well, if you ask on scone? well, if you ask comedian dawn french, anyone who doesn't follow the traditions of her adopted home of cornwall is dead to her. and in fact, she might just kill you of herself . might just kill you of herself. here's what she had to say to loutish leftie cathy patel podcast. if the correct way is scud batteries optional, then there is the jab jam first always cream is the crowd no other way. the other way is the way of go of satan . well, and way of go of satan. well, and you know what? it makes sense, though. i think it does, because how can you put jam on top of. exactly. and that's probably want to hide the cream. well that's , people who think cream

that's, people who think cream is butter, they're very wrong. yeah, yeah. because you spread jam, dollop. great yeah. jam, you dollop. great yeah. it's absolute madness to do it the other way round. and anyone who the other way round who did it the other way round at my wake. would be off at my wake. yeah. would be off like squid games, right? yeah. i'd be killed by ashes with rifles . ah. so so it's a jam jar rifles. ah. so so it's a jam jar . i totally agree. jon shuts stanford, particularly in cornwall. so you can, you can very . so cornwall. so you can, you can very. so normal cornwall. so you can, you can very . so normal people say what very. so normal people say what do you what do you say? i mean you can do. i thought you spread the cream. you because it was a subject substitute for butter and then the jam jam is heavier than the cream. so if you put the jam on last it blew. i think the jam on last it blew. i think the key the key thing is to have your decision before you start doing this. so if you know it's going to be jam carry that can you just there's going to be three convicts on it course resident couldn't your area and what's that going to make

graham's coffee was another day christine hamilton do stand by because coming up is the royal royal aid lady hussy my great british hero, rather than the villain, the emcee of a painting her out to be with. that's the view of one of my superstar is find out who as i crowned this week's final crisis person in union jack has at 1050. but first as ofcom warns lower , first as ofcom warns lower, income households are persistently underserved by the bbc is auntie only interested in entertaining the woke elite man of the people? charlie lawson is tackling the week in woke straight after the break .

it's time now for cancelled and this is where a person's top comment speak out on controversial issues without the fear of the cancel culture sweeping the rest of the media. surprise surprise. well, maybe not. the bbc has now been

officially exposed as being a turnoff for ordinary folk . turnoff for ordinary folk. analysis from the regular to ofcom world and the corporation is persistently underserved in lower income households and must do more to connect with poorer communities. not only less well—off people not keen on beeb shows, but they particularly think bbc news isn't doing enough to shake off its reputation for biased news reporting. probably because it's the most biased news organisation in the country. former coronation star and man of the people. charlie lawson. so is this proof, charlie, that the beeb is a self—serve bean salad dough and soya snobs club . the salad dough and soya snobs club. the islington well ofcom have got a point here you and i and many others have been saying this for quite a while, know that the bbc andindeed quite a while, know that the bbc and indeed all i would exclude gb news from this. of course , gb news from this. of course, but they do pander to that part of islington or inadvertently

with it, but definitely sites of watford and it's patronising in the extreme because us folk appearin the extreme because us folk appear in the north, whether that be north of watford, whether not be ireland, scotland or whatever else, the north—east, the northwest or wherever we are perfect. they capable of dealing with facts, figures and all the rest. but we and we get sick of having to listen to the same people on question time from upper street buying on giving us all this crap that they and you know what? they're going to find out as the general election whenever . that may be because people people, if you like , from red people, if you like, from red wall seats or working class areas or however you want to put it of just about had enough of all this crap and they will vote. they have no no worries at all about saying shall not appear today because you know

that's the way people feel . yeah that's the way people feel. yeah well yeah. and also when it comes to the bbc, they don't even pay the licence fee are they. sorry, charlie. no, i mean and i really have an outlook and i all an awful lot to be off pleasure. i've worked in their drama the cartoon for over 40 years off and on and thank god politics hasn't really entered the drama game on the floor on this stage, if you know what i mean. you just get on with it. you're a performer. you're an but . i i don't blame people for but. i i don't blame people for not paying their licence. but now the bbc know that all a lot is going to have to change eventually when they will. and i think this will speed it up now, charlie, look, one of your namesakes hits the headlines this for cracking an this week for cracking an alleged joke the alleged racist joke at the british curry this is british curry awards. this is a great guy, i think, and he's great guy, i think, and i he's charlie mullins. you know, he was the boss of pimlico plumbers often have a look often on this show. have a look that comes in the tone of a team in the world cup because every time they get a corner they want

to open up a shop . yeah, i know. cha to open up a shop. yeah, i know. cha backlash . he had to apologise . backlash. he had to apologise. look. well, let me tell you. done. and, charlie, if you're listening and some here, here's one of the secrets about comedy . if you're going to tell a joke , for christ's sake, tell it . , for christ's sake, tell it. well, that was crap so. but to simply leave the joke, don't to believe you're a hot plumber of the year, you're telling gags yeah the year, you're telling gags year. but look , we're all year. but look, we're all hopkins son, billy connolly are hardly there . when will people. hardly there. when will people. yeah they would know a joke as a joke. as a joke. they would say humour is humour. we can hardly humour is humour. we can hardly humour is humour. we can hardly humour is a mainstay to offend isn't it. it's meant to sustain, but it doesn't work if you can't do it well , it's okay. so do it well, it's okay. so charlie should have been practising in the mirror a bit more of a charlie. we regularly

poke fun here, don't we, at the french for waving the white flag. but actually i sort of feel they've put us to shame when it comes to, you know, the eco terror charlie who are blocking the streets is how they deal with them. france . you deal with them. in france. you know . they're . know. they're. not . sure why not. sure why. oh, that's the police. that's what we need here, charlie . that's what i here, charlie. that's what i would encourage. and you know, you know where i live, folks, if you know where i live, folks, if you want to arrest me, i'm inciting people to get out of their vehicles and ship these themselves. and if the police are there, go up and have a word

in their ear and say what the name of jesus are you doing, lads? why are we doing your job? i think it's great. well done. the well done. the french. and we don't often say that . so we don't often say that. so charlie laws, now man of the. thank you so much, charlie . and thank you so much, charlie. and we will speak next week . but we will speak next week. but it's we will speak next week. but wsfime we will speak next week. but it's time now to reveal tonight's greatest person in the union. jack has. okay, tonight's greatest person in the union. jack has . okay, christine union. jack has. okay, christine hamilton , who's the gb nominee hamilton, who's the gb nominee by nominee is lady susan hussey, who has been cruelly dumped by the palace after . 60 years of the palace after. 60 years of devoted , loyal service to her devoted, loyal service to her majesty the queen, completely unpaid. she is a great britain. johnson's giant, your greatest britain nominee will be rob burrow . he is britain nominee will be rob burrow. he is the britain nominee will be rob burrow . he is the rugby league burrow. he is the rugby league player who has been suffering badly suffering from motor neurone disease. you can't , but neurone disease. you can't, but they've managed to send the signs, his voice. and he's reading a story on cbb is much to the delight of his little children. it's amazing is that should we have a little look?
