national lead officer at he says patients lives already at risk . patients lives already at risk. and only 25% of shifts have the planned staff actually on that shift there are 133,000 vacancies across the nhs in england alone . what our members england alone. what our members are telling us is that lives are being put at risk and that people are dying now because of the state of the service . the state of the service. baroness is to take a leave of absence from the house of lords following allegations that she benefited from a covid deal. it's alleged that michelle mone and her children received millions of pounds after she recommended company to ministers at the height of the pandemic. baroness mone denied the allegations . stephen flynn has allegations. stephen flynn has been elected as the snp leader in westminster. the aberdeen south mp replaces ian blackford with immediate effect . first

last years of the most insane failed health experiment in history , we might not be facing history, we might not be facing a supplying chain , soaring a supplying chain, soaring inflation and, a cost of lockdown crisis which has played no small part in, driving so many unions to make this year. another dreadful life stopping, depressing christmas of discontent. when really we should all just be having one of the best years in forever. the then chancellor who has now been promoted from within the ranks of the politburo following coup to replace chairman truss chairman sunak oversaw in glee the creation of chairman sunak oversaw in glee the creation 0 f £1,000,000,000 the creation of £1,000,000,000 of monopoly money a day throughout the pandemic, diluting the value of our currency to the potency of a weak. i mean. i'm no economist, but even squirrel brain could fathom that when you dump all that extra money into economy, pnces that extra money into economy, prices are going to go up and up. they continue to go and the more they go up, the wider eyes become. when we look at every we get for the necessities of our everyday lives people being

forced to choose between heating eating. no wonder everyone wants go on strike . but it is strange. go on strike. but it is strange. some strikers. i have real compassion for and some i really don't . for example, firefighters don't. for example, firefighters . i really do feel for firefighters . see why shortly. firefighters. see why shortly. but anyone who was born with the mindset of when want to grow up.7 i want to be a firefighter and then actually does grow up and become a firefighter who puts their own life at risk to save others by personality type must find thought downing find the thought of downing hoses and, not fulfilling their life, calling act of last life, calling an act of last resort when they were offered such a pay rise. whilst the ppe graduates on the blue side of the house and the critical race on the red side of the house took above inflation pay rise. they were offered. i know some of them said they donate the excess to charity, but it's only by example is it right medics to, i know they didn't do themselves many favours during themselves many favours during the pandemic with the tiktok video. it's been every time or anyone else i know and is needed

critical care the overwhelming majority of time they've got it in spades and. been extremely grateful to the doctors nurses and porters and surgeons . they and porters and surgeons. they have to direct contact . the list have to direct contact. the list is too long mention. so i be happy to give both firefighters and medical staff a pay rise. dr. me especially seeing as a trainee firefighter , will soon trainee firefighter, will soon get less than someone who works in aldi let that sink in. but having said that, there is obviously some money around at the bottom of the fire services , equity and inclusion bucket because some genius turned all the remaining fire engines into non binary rainbow unicorns with wales . i also that pretty much wales. i also that pretty much any and any nhs who doesn't have direct contact with patients in hospital should have to what their job hospital should have to what theirjob is and then reapply for it . i bet theirjob is and then reapply for it. i bet you there's a few billions salaries for non—jobs which be trimmed off that big fat . but now to the real

fat. but now to the real strikers , they really , really strikers, they really, really get my goat. this is the first christmas since the madness of the last two years began when restaurants retailers could actually make some money in that crucial period running up to christmas. that is as long as their customers don't mind. not able to get the train home again after, their christmas party or shopping trip. those strikes for who sit in a chair and turn a noble day. i'm slightly less enthusiastic about . it's noble day. i'm slightly less enthusiastic about. it's mean my , silly and misanthropic. enthusiastic about. it's mean my , silly and misanthropic . but , silly and misanthropic. but then there is the other side. you start giving everyone the pubuc you start giving everyone the public sector, one in five of us a pay public sector, one in five of us a pay rise at the same point the other 4/5 are going to get. but miffed, especially seeing as they cry all the wealth in the first place. and most of them haven't a pay either. haven't had a pay rise either. there's the potential wage there's also, the potential wage price deal with if all price spiral to deal with if all of money starts of this extra money starts floating compounding the floating around, compounding the problem what problem still further. what an apt salute next. these last two years have being and we're

living out now. okay. so right . living out now. okay. so right. what do we do.7 how living out now. okay. so right. what do we do? how about we scrap the 50 billion we are spending each year to appease the sun with offerings of net zero and give some of those billions to those who work on the front line. as i say, it's a mess . there is indeed something mess. there is indeed something distasteful about. i told you so's , but we did tell you . so so's, but we did tell you. so going to. so i'm asking you. how long will you support the strikers? email me barrage? well, i'm not ferocious . email well, i'm not ferocious. email farage at gb news uk or use the hashtag barrage on gb news. well, as alluded to, more than 33,000 firefighters and control staff have started voting on whether to pay whether to strike over pay, following rejection of a 5% pay offer today . fire a 5% pay offer today. fire brigades, union members from all over travelled to westminster lobby mps to mark the start of a ballot for strikes. i went to

westminster to speak to some of the members demonstrating earlier today. these guys , these earlier today. these guys, these two gentlemen men here , put out two gentlemen men here, put out a fire in my house at midnight when i used live in in west sussex. so i would have slept through that and i would be ashes on the ground. so thank you . i think probably one fairly you. i think probably one fairly sympathetic well done . just sympathetic well done. just don't be under the illusion win we're not into striking it so but we've got no other option . but we've got no other option. and that's where. that's great. kind alliance with us. we never want go on strike. it'sjust want to go on strike. it's just worst nightmare that she community. you say community. and we, like you say . we want to save them. it's last resort and that's what we've brought, is a last we've been brought, is a last resort. realistically, we are for £4,000 below inflation over the past ten years. and then so is that 11% being offered 2% by the government ? the employers the government? the employers then came back , said a 5% offer, then came back, said a 5% offer, but that was from the government. we have to find that out on our own pockets from the employers . local supermarket employers. local supermarket will y £11. aldi will pay

will pay £11. aldi will pay pounds 11 hour 11 an hour, just for starters . the fire service for starters. the fire service pays pounds $0.05 an hour. is that that's the truth . that's that that's the truth. that's the truth. that that's the truth. that's the truth . £11.11 in aldi. that that's the truth. that's the truth. £11.11 in aldi . £11. the truth. £11.11 in aldi. £11. $0.05 in aldi. i'm sorry in the fire service. so that's insane. what would your message be to the public tonight ? i think they the public tonight? i think they just need to know that getting screwed over as much as we are. they're literally getting screwed over more than we are because they're getting the service. they believe that they're going to get. it's not that. so they're going to that. so they're then going to say they're to us say that they're going to pay us out of budget that's already out of a budget that's already on its knees. they're going on its knees. then they're going to than ever. to get worse service than ever. so need to us, if they want so they need to us, if they want the service we provide, which i'm pretty sure 100% of them do when that comes, when they when that time comes, they they want us there they want it. they want us there . they've got supporters . . so they've got supporters. joining me from westminster is greg smith, conservative mp for buckingham . greg, what is the buckingham. greg, what is the government going to do about this ? if lawrence look,

this? if lawrence look, everybody wants a pay rise, right? everybody wants an inflationary pay rise. everybody wants to have more money in their pocket. and i have enormous sympathy . the enormous sympathy. the firefighters. actually, that example was just given of the comparison between firefighter pay comparison between firefighter pay and. pay and aldi clearly isn't right. and there is got to be something done in the medium to long term to rectify that balance. but this money has to come from somewhere and as you said in your introductory remarks, we are still suffering . the aftershocks of the pandemic, the supply chain challenges , the economic challenges, the economic disruption that the lockdowns brought. neal, i voted against many, many of the lockdowns . i many, many of the lockdowns. i supported the government in the first one. but that started voting against as the pandemic went know, i felt that went on. you know, i felt that they were too damaging to our economy, our children's health, to all the other factors we've rehearsed before. but there is a reality that the aftershocks of the pandemic war in ukraine many global factors mean are short of

money and as everybody wants these double digit pay rises they're actually physically isn't the money out to pay for them right now. and i agree with you that there is a massive campaign that we can wage a war on the ways we can root that out. but that isn't going to happen christmas comes happen by time. christmas comes around . and what need to around. and what we need to happenif around. and what we need to happen if we want a successful economy across the whole united kingdom is we need all of our shops, all cafes and pubs and restaurants and, everyone that relies december for actually relies on december for actually the bulk of turnover and their profits to be able to trade. and if the rule is right, strike , we if the rule is right, strike, we can't do that because . our dear can't do that because. our dear friends, the auntie refusing to let us do that and travel around what . can the government do what. can the government do about this ? these people should about this? these people should be stopped striking. you can't cut christmas because you get enough money to turn your knob . enough money to turn your knob. the tube train . so i totally the tube train. so i totally agree with . you and i'm agree with. you and i'm frustrated. i've been pushing the government to come forward

with the minimum service legislation we've promised. we shall say everyone's , freedoms shall say everyone's, freedoms down in a day at the start of the pandemic. so i see no reason why we can't pass this emergency legislation and to stop these strikes in time for in time christmas. and at the end of the day, these guys have refused 8. let me say that again , 8% pay let me say that again, 8% pay rise. that is from than the vast majority of workers in this country are being offered at the moment. it is up to them to decide that i worked in business for 22 years and no one got a pay for 22 years and no one got a pay rise in the entire 22 years. thank you so much greg smith, conservative mp for buckingham here to give us the labour perspective is peter edwards , perspective is peter edwards, former editor of the labour right so it's one thing having training strikes is irritating and all of this stuff it when we're on ambulance sets and fire service taught taught me through logic . well first of all no one

logic. well first of all no one wants to go on strike and that applies. you work in the media or in hospital, say that that's a full circle. you can't come out with the false equivalence. nobody to go strike. nobody wants to go on strike. they you want to go on they if you didn't want to go on strike. you wouldn't go on. and you smith couple of you gave greg smith a couple of minutes. me 10 seconds, minutes. you give me 10 seconds, go. you're going to get longer. yeah. so no one wants yeah. okay. so no one wants to go strike you rightly go on strike and you rightly said people go into all sorts of industries, especially public services, because they care about people. then about helping other people. then you use the analogy or the example a train example of a train driver. i offer you some different way to twiddling his twiddling the buttons in his cup, were somehow cup, as if that were somehow a trivial. but it's about safety andifs trivial. but it's about safety and it's about getting on with the people the otherjobs, the people in the other jobs, including sector including the private sector that up as a great that you held up as a great example work so they example to get to work so they can money. so train can make money. so need train drivers just for the public drivers not just for the public sector but for everyone. and to get to school and everything else, trains else, not driving the trains well are that's point. and well are that's the point. and they're bringing they are the scrooge christmas. no we've got to stick to facts and you're obviously entitled to have a dispute. we've got to stick to facts. last times rail there

facts. our last times rail there was about 25% service. it wasn't a service. the strike we've a zero service. the strike we've got slated over christmas would be from christmas eve . there's be from christmas eve. there's an early shutdown to christmas when there's no service to boxing day. well, it's generally in the tube only and the overground. what about the week before? and of 27. well, i hope it doesn't go and actually it doesn't go ahead and actually what's and you know people might describe me moderate. what describe me as moderate. what really is both the really struck me is both the firefighters your clip didn't firefighters in your clip didn't want go on strike but also want to go on strike but also the secretaries of the the general secretaries of the rmt rail union and of unite rmt the rail union and of unite is generally a union both said on media today they didn't want a strike happen it could still be stopped. these not be stopped. so these are not gung militant people. they gung ho militant people. they want their customers, want to serve their customers, their people their their passengers. people go on strike. and i've done it in my life because feel desperate poorer . desperate or they feel poorer. they feel they're not being listened enough. but listened to. fair enough. but we're still going to have our christmas rib written by these people. well hope not. and so what i have just expressed , i what i have just expressed, i think with in a way in a way

well, in a different way to how i would feel is, you know, it's solidarity . nonetheless, solidarity. nonetheless, i didn't come on and strike every off, did i? i've expressed solidarity. what i can't put up with is the fact that we have been through the most appalling for the last two years by this ridic this government in stupid covid policies . and this year we covid policies. and this year we had a chance . make everyone feel had a chance. make everyone feel great again . and we also had great again. and we also had a chance to give back to people and give them hope and optimism and give them hope and optimism and say, we're through this . and and say, we're through this. and the rmt just turned around and went, no , we're going to get went, no, we're going to get you. and chosen the most damaged in time for businesses and for and for small businesses , medium and for small businesses, medium size, all businesses and, parties and office parties and gatherings to do this, why would you be so miserly , like and vile you be so miserly, like and vile about it? well, i disagree completely i wouldn't use word was for two reasons. first of all you and i have a different on lockdown i supported it, but that still supports it . yes but that still supports it. yes but now that is striking because i

can't afford to pay for it. but thatis can't afford to pay for it. but that is no consolation for a train or a firefighter. he's got to pay rent or pay mortgage or , to pay rent or pay mortgage or, put food on the table. no one can put food on their table . can put food on their table. well, some people can't. you know, you supported lockdown. we're now suffering consequences know, you supported lockdown. welockdown. |ffering consequences know, you supported lockdown. welockdown. noing consequences know, you supported lockdown. welockdown. no one consequences know, you supported lockdown. welockdown. no one can equences know, you supported lockdown. welockdown. no one can putances know, you supported lockdown. welockdown. no one can put food of lockdown. no one can put food on their table. and you're still saying lockdown. how saying you support lockdown. how can to you can you expect anyone to see you seriously? that's seriously? well, let me that's a good why do suppose good question. why do suppose now why in a position now and why are we in a position we all agree with? you and i have totally different. there is an economic crisis across the country there's country but my view of there's lots reasons that first lots of reasons that first of all, why crying? please all, why are you crying? please don't ukraine. it's nice to don't say ukraine. it's nice to said that. okay, it's a have always said that once and then got shamed of it very quickly. one of the reasons there's lots of is why of course, even crises like we become reliant on other countries for our grain or our energy or the government took money away fracking. so you support fracking or we money away in london so train away from tfl in london so train fares became more expensive and of course the conservative mayor that back tfl subsidy

that gave back the tfl subsidy was someone called boris johnson but for free depleting over ten years british infrastructure . years british infrastructure. we've become more reliant on other countries and then something wrong something goes wrong in those countries exposed. countries. we're exposed. we're on side . but thank you on the same side. but thank you so we believe the so much. and we believe the future building our fate. future is building our fate. we need our own energy need to create our own energy and for it we need to and go for it we do need to create our energy. britain great again, right? joining me now to discuss the potential fire bngade discuss the potential fire brigade action is trade brigade strike action is trade and paul embery . paul, and writer paul embery. paul, i'm just going to ask you some. i'm just going to ask you some. i peter why we don't just i asked peter why we don't just talking about trains and posts anymore when emergency services strike people are going to die they don't . well i hope not, but they don't. well i hope not, but obviously we take strike action there is an increased risk in that that's undeniable . but what that that's undeniable. but what i would say laurence he's never underestimate and know i was listening to some of your interviews. we saw fighters at the rally. never underestimate to the rest the fire fighters do

with their consciences whenever they take a decision like this. i've been on strike before as a firefighter. i know what it's like an agonising decision . you like an agonising decision. you never enjoy it. you never do it as a first resort. you only do it as a last resort and not genuine you think that you know this a last resort, the fire fighters, this dispute pay in the fire service has been rumbling on now for something like seven months. and you know, whether side of the divide you fall in terms of whether or not you think fire fighters are right not i'm sure everybody understands there comes a point where if you're at an impasse you as group you either capitulate as group of workers and say, well, we'll just accept what throwing just accept what you're throwing us we're going have us or we're going to have to something about i think something about it. and i think fire are of that view fire fighters are of that view now that we've been pushed doing something it . well, what something about it. well, what would you say with your experience would be a pay offer? well what what would firefighters accept . well mean? firefighters accept. well mean? i genuinely don't know what fire fighters would accept . no trade

fighters would accept. no trade unionists , as you would unionists, as you would appreciate. while these negotiations ongoing would would want to give away a bottom line anyway. but what would say is look the 5% that's on the table at a time inflation is running at a time inflation is running at 11% at a time when i've got colleagues saying to me for the first time in my 25 years in the service that they're struggling to pay their mortgage, struggling to pay their energy bills , they're worried whether bills, they're worried whether they afford christmas they can afford christmas presents for their for their children . the offer has got to children. the offer has got to something that addresses the cost of living crisis and at the moment the offer that's there simply doesn't do that so you know, firefighters are really at end of their tether. they feel they've exhausted negotiations and now they've got no other opfion and now they've got no other option but to but to that cross on the ballot form . think i on the ballot form. think i agree , i agree with you. i think agree, i agree with you. i think firefighters be held up as heroes in this country should be seen and shown as much especially to our children. thank you, paul embery firefighting trade unionist and

writer. next we shall discuss the ongoing royal racism royal rumble. funnily enough , i don't rumble. funnily enough, i don't think there's more to it than meets the eye, but that probably is. thanks .

bit of inspiration from our dear friends, the japanese .

welcome back and welcome back to some more royal lies. welcome back and welcome back to some more royal lies . this time some more royal lies. this time it's the hypocrites in chief harry and meghan . yes, the ones harry and meghan. yes, the ones we wanted to escape the limelight and the horrible press, but have released a spotify podcast to be on james corden's not very funny carpool karaoke and are now advertised in a new netflix documentary series which i am going to watch . i can't help it. could you think of a more perfect way to obtain privacy? well, the latest in this laughable couple saga is that at least for the clips in that at least for the clips in that 63 second promo are loaded . ups the beep. yeah. just 63

seconds on. it was full of inaccuracies . it's as if the inaccuracies. it's as if the scriptwriters are guardian writers in the advert. it's been reported they've used the footage of journalists waiting outside court for katie price last year to illustrate the media frenzy around the couple. given the impression a lone snapper covertly photograph harry and meghan and their son archie inside a private home when it was a pre—arranged coverage of a visit of archbishop desmond tutu, shown cameras round in them before the trailer cuts to a tearful meghan with a very , very expensive with a very, very expensive hermes blanket behind you. i mean, and when the passenger was, in fact, donald trump's ex—lawyer and claimed photographers that the harry potter film premiere. i would told you then it's so clear that harry and meghan aren't interested in the truth , just interested in the truth, just their truth. god, that's irritating me more and more every day. and the only time to tell when they're lying is when they're moving their lips . this they're moving their lips. this netflix documentary has been completely discredited even before it started. good job,

intelligent people like the good viewers of gb news know where to come for the truth . now what am come for the truth. now what am i? what the fox moment is an uplifting one from the beautiful game of football. japan put on some heroic performances. most notably knocking out the germans, giving the english another reason to cheer this world cup and sink another beer. but their efforts off the pitch alongside their fans has been equally admirable. following their exit from the tournament, a team took the time to leave the changing in the change area immaculately clean whilst their fans spent time cleaning the stadium rather than drowning their sorrows. like any brentwood , that really is giving brentwood, that really is giving something back to the people and showing respect and sportsmanship for the world to see slightly more say than england team's empty gesture of kneeling for whatever they're kneeling for whatever they're kneeling for whatever they're kneeling for nowadays , whilst kneeling for nowadays, whilst our opponents stand towering over them, utterly bemused .

over them, utterly bemused. right. so up next. i'm very excited about this. i will speak to oscar nominee hollywood star tom conti on talking pints will be back very .

soon the gb news bar is open, so that can only be one thing. yes it's talking pints now before i get chatting to my extremely famous friend and guest, chatting to my extremely famous friend and guest , take a look at friend and guest, take a look at in action in the 1983 film reuben. reuben well, the party is for me. i'm the guest of honour and bobby did ask at the seminar, like to have come. i'd like to have you come. sounds sounds tempting . i'll see. i'm sounds tempting. i'll see. i'm not really sure about the date.

thanks again, mr. geneva . the thanks again, mr. geneva. the incident on the train yesterday . you're good at attitude, you're good behaviour, you're generosity . i you're good behaviour, you're generosity. i really you're good behaviour, you're generosity . i really don't want generosity. i really don't want to talk about it any more. i want you to know that i forgive you . it is we want you to know that i forgive you. it is we are so want you to know that i forgive you . it is we are so blessed. you. it is we are so blessed. the hollywood star and oscar nominee tom conti. tom chase , nominee tom conti. tom chase, just how are you? i'd love good water. why are you in the water? i just in case i water. why are you in the water? ijust in case i say water. why are you in the water? i just in case i say something i shouldn't. well we'll get on to things that you say should. but listen, the last time you and i saw each other, i was still allowed to act . i know you want allowed to act. i know you want that. you are no longer a letter. what is this? you're not allowed to act. how? how bizarre can a thing like that happen? i

mean , agent train partner, i'm a mean, agent train partner, i'm a racist white supremacist , racist white supremacist, fascist, transphobe. i'm if i. well, i spent, what, two months with you every day and i didn't suspect any of that. no, you would. the worst with the director, do you remember? anyway for the viewers, tom and i did a play, the patriotic traitor. it was the last time they let me anywhere near a stage. and we left the good old days where people disagreed profoundly . yes, our director profoundly. yes, our director was very hard left guy . really was very hard left guy. really the day, wasn't it? yes yes. and we you argued with you argued with him to the hilt and said it all. and it was yes, but it was discussion. it was a document. exactly. rather different, isn't it? i know, but we have the power because we, the actor said we just refuse to do it. what do you make of the current cultural climate and then the climate after ? well, it's religion and after? well, it's religion and climate is a religion is the new religion, isn't it? i mean,

somebody was suggesting this since god has been such a banished is no bad thing. i have no how dare you? i like that, but. well, good luck with them . but. well, good luck with them. but you . it wasn't replaced by but you. it wasn't replaced by anything. religion wasn't it? so people find their own religion and. and the climate at the moment, whether it's or whether it's, you know, physical climate or the idea that you are talking about of the council climate is another kind of religion is something for people to hang on to and believe in and fight for. unfortunately both of these things are not worth fighting of. neither is worth fighting for, really. what what is? what is the job of an artist as an artist? i'm an actor. any artist. but let's nail it down. try to say what is the job of an actor? what should an actor do to make people feel good? it's the same as the job of a composer or a painter or anything. you do things what you hope will make people will like,

you know, make them feel good. it'll make them laugh for an evening or, you know, if they go to a into the national gallery, they see something. the ones their heart and they go to the festival hall and listen to mozart and weep, you know, all these there's all sorts of ways of entertaining people. and to me, it's to move usto fundamental . it's to move us fundamental. it's to move us from where we all have somewhere else. i think so isn't it? yeah, it's spiritually. emotionally artistically and if you think that the artists still exists at the moment , that the artists still exists at the moment, are there artists out there ? yes, i think there out there? yes, i think there might be a little bit fearful . might be a little bit fearful. that's a problem. like comics say, you know, we have to be careful what we say. well, there's an absurd it's an absurd world that you live in. if you have to be careful what you say, you know, we're not in germany in 1938. yeah. love or so , in 1938. yeah. love or so, soviet union or whatever. it's called now. no, like ghastly mad men . you're not allowed to say

men. you're not allowed to say anything . you get thrown to anything. you get thrown to siberia in a very. anything. you get thrown to siberia in a very . we have a siberia in a very. we have a cultural gulag now, which is, you know, we're sort of headed in. my descriptions were being herded down narrower and narrower lane . yes. of thought. narrower lane. yes. of thought. yes and generosity of spirit is rather important, i think, in any society. and we're slightly lacking generosity of spirit, perhaps. what would your happier moment, your most creative most most in creative beauty? not and i'm not asking about the legendary time slot. yeah i say what was the most what was the moment when you were stood in front of a camera or on a stage where you felt nice, wonderful. most connected to the to the to the end, to the best fun i had to jobs, which were tremendously good fun. one was a musical by marvin hamlisch called the playing of song with a wonderful jim mcraven . and we'd run for jim mcraven. and we'd run for a year or something of that and to

go to work every night was like going to a wonderful party. we would have all the best jokes. it was just absolutely tremendous. and the other one was was it was doing it had was it was it was doing it had been to a play called the dumbwaiter movie with dumbwaiter as a movie with bubble and, that bubble and, and, and that was just, again, fun to do, just, again, immense fun to do, mostly because of bob because he should you get with it. he should you get on with it. he was he he turned around was amazing. he he turned around to i worked with him and he to me. i worked with him and he turned to me when and do turned around to me when and do you want to change the lines in the play in the film? and i went, what? no, it's a script act as the script. you read the script important than script is less important than your . and i just thought i your shoes. and i just thought i loved how how these people are. i miss it on morning show business. and you all that way. how do you feel yourself about it, about the industry and about comfortable culture and all of these things ? well, i think these things? well, i think cancel culture is absurd . and cancel culture is absurd. and what is more absurd than the cancel culture is the fact that people buy into it instead of

just ignoring it. i mean, you, for example, your agent the morning after that program, apparently he he said, i don't want to work with you anymore. why? what was he afraid of? well, it was actually it was later because you know what? agents are like that all of the assistants in the office are called something like octavia or juuanne called something like octavia or julianne or something like that. and they're all the third daughters and extremely wealthy people. and they have brains similar in size to chickpeas. and there were a lot we feel the kids are racist and we do not want to represent him . and i'm want to represent him. and i'm just like , what is your problem? just like, what is your problem? so i got removed by the death of a thousand cuts, which , you a thousand cuts, which, you know, but what i find interesting is that you and i and jonathan lane, who directed our play, who made yes. been starring , you know, extremely starring, you know, extremely left wing dude , we would have left wing dude, we would have profound disagreements with one another, and yet it would all be

donein another, and yet it would all be done in the name of what we were trying to create. and now it seems that art has to be not done that way . and i saw this done that way. and i saw this jonah hill trailer for a film he's done . and the trailer is he's done. and the trailer is literally a black couple going . literally a black couple going. you you just came over here and did this to us. and you were expecting me to sit through 2 hours of race baiting . i'm just hours of race baiting. i'm just beyond . anyway, let's get onto beyond. anyway, let's get onto that. we most important thing that. we most important thing that we need to talk to oscar nominated actors about climate change. talk to me , talk to me. change. talk to me, talk to me. tell them , talk to me. let me tell them, talk to me. let me tell you, you've heard of this dreadfully evil gas called co2 carbon . the plants love it. carbon. the plants love it. i apparently well, that's what nobody seems to understand is the if you reduce co2 , then the the if you reduce co2, then the plants stop growing. well, they won't stop until 160 parts per minute , per million and then minute, per million and then plant death occurs with a 400 at

the moment is have been times in history but has been far higher than this. and nobody died. nobody choked to death, you know, to suggest the co2 is solely responsible for any change in the climate . what used change in the climate. what used to be called global warming . but to be called global warming. but they had to change it because they had to change it because the isn't warming. the globe isn't warming. although people , and although people, and particularly children, are being terrified into believing that every day the temperature goes up two degrees. you know, there's a hot day and they think that that is the same all over all over the planet. but in fact, the chances are that any warming, any change, not warming, any change, not warming, but change is caused really by the chaotic movement of the oceans and the atmosphere. and, of course , the atmosphere. and, of course, the sun and the sun monster and the sun and the sun monster and the sun monster doesn't know this. yeah, but the idea that, you know, if you if you here's zero parts per million and here is a million parts, right? of the atmosphere, put your finger .

atmosphere, put your finger. where do you think the amount of carbon dioxide is between there? that's zero. that's a million a bit nearer . that's zero. that's a million a bit nearer. so yeah. how about that right there. we know we're not as boris johnson says, 5 seconds to midnight or whatever he said, why? listen to the reason we're out here. what are you going to fight back? there's nothing you can. the strange thing is that no, the opposite side is not allowed to be heard . you know, i talked to a man called will harper, a professor of physics at princeton, and i met this year when i was i was playing einstein in the perfect castle, and, you know, in the interest of this new picture, oppenheimer , that's screaming in oppenheimer, that's screaming in my ear, the screaming in my. and we have to finish. oh, tom. cheers me . i love you. can we go cheers me. i love you. can we go for a beer after? don't believe the nonsense about co2 . we don't the nonsense about co2. we don't kill society . i. i the nonsense about co2. we don't kill society. i. i met tom right coming up it's mark turner. then

for stein . mark how you doing ? for stein. mark how you doing? buck up . for stein. mark how you doing? buck up. median nina conti. but neither of them are as talented as you are. i'm very excited because we've got a busy show tonight. we're going to be crunching the numbers on covid. is the consensus around the virus now beginning to crumble? we're going to speak to either cummins, something of a youtube star. he's an engineer who has actually looked at the data and argues that lockdowns masks and vaccines have failed to move the dial. also is britain in long term decline? we will a debate that with professor dr. david starkey live in the studio and oxford goes full communist . find oxford goes full communist. find out why in my big opinion
