this does of feel like comes as a of a brutal time. i mean i a bit of a brutal time. i mean i can understand why striking can understand why the striking but have to wait so but people have had to wait so long enough long for operations not enough to yeah. so do you to wait longest. yeah. so do you want for christmas? like, not your be fixed? your kid needs to be fixed? exactly. not very nice. exactly. it's not very nice. nick, you it? well, nick, would you take it? well, it's worse than things like it's even worse than things like kidneys. leo because the question will anyone question is, will anyone actually call the actually come if you call the ambulance? so this thing ambulance? so there's this thing where only be sent out where i'm may only be sent out if immediate to life, if there's an immediate to life, but doesn't make people but that doesn't make people call ambulance . right. call an ambulance. right. right. but doesn't things but that doesn't include things like so like heart and strokes. so that's what they're like on the bill. yes the storage on that. that's like on the b—list. that's like on the b—list. that's like, you know, that's like that's like low level like a that's like a low level problem. this new world. problem. now in this new world. and asked police to and they've asked the police to man ambulances and they're man the ambulances and they're saying we can't right now we're asking to step in asking the military to step in and we're asking the and do things we're asking the police. yeah, i'm through a different job the military different job but the military used in tank they're used to drive in tank so they're just try and drive over just going to try and drive over cars it's going to be an absolute get some angry drill sergeant you sponge sergeant giving you a sponge bath. asking the to work bath. yes. asking the to work on trains their for. the

trains in their own day for. the asking the police to work in ambulances, the whole. whole ambulances, the whole. the whole country's apart, it says country's falling apart, it says here. said here. health officials said patients call nine, patients should still call nine, nine, they're concerned nine, nine if they're concerned that but one that life is at risk. but one will answer yes. that's the because you can have a chat to somebody you of fade away. somebody as you of fade away. yeah, exactly. absolutely yeah, exactly. it's absolutely shocking. and yeah. mean. of course, is not course, the military is not happy coming in they've happy about coming in they've been says been asked recently that says unreasonable unaffordable unreasonable and unaffordable and it's just an absolute nightmare by calling it nightmare by people calling it the disconnect. the winter of disconnect. i think what we who think that's what we have. who knows how? of it is due to knows how? much of it is due to lockdowns. the economy's a disaster in general. the nhs doesn't work the best of times. yeah, people are yeah, so, i mean. people are talking a winter crisis, talking about a winter crisis, but nhs. but the papers but an nhs. yeah, but the papers have that story have been running that story for ten thing is, ten years. well the thing is, i mean thing is it's even worse now if every year papers run this story about winter crisis for the nhs and you know, usually can sort of scrape usually chase can sort of scrape and through. the and just, just pull through. the thing we've come a thing is because we've come a long time, got every long time, we've got every community's we're community's gone. so we're seeing flu rates or seeing flu, flu rates or the strikes rates shooting strikes and rates are shooting through the roof and also, you know, there's so much burnout in the nhs unfilled so the nhs and unfilled posts. so this were this time looks like they were

already a burnout before. we're going winter this time going into the winter this time at could really at least it could be really serious. although clapping i gave did gave them did nothing, did nothing, waste good nothing, nothing. waste of good skin well. well, skin on my hands as well. well, nick, are the guardian leaving with is gone with bully boy barclay to blame for the barclay is to blame for the nurses strike and this is quite a this is actually a ridiculous storage bonus. i mean the actual nurses is obviously nurses strike is obviously serious. but the angle that the guardian's is guardian's managed to find is that some kind of that steve barclay some kind of sexist he won't negotiate sexist and he won't negotiate with the head of the nurses because she's a woman representing largely female workforce maybe barclay is workforce and maybe barclay is this described in this monster described in article. but this seems a bit of article. but this seems a bit of a angle to me. i mean, she a silly angle to me. i mean, she says is the head of the says this is the head of the nurses union royal college nursing. so and she's saying that , you know, the more i nursing. so and she's saying that, you know, the more i think about i'm woman about it, i'm a woman negotiating for a 90% female profession to profession that's trying to operate with a government that's particularly with particularly macho, is with which leading and which you see that leading and tends operate boy tends to operate with bully boy tactics. you look tactics. so surely you can look and that the trains are in and see that the trains are in the same the border, you know, everyone's striking. so is it really case? a

really the case? it's a misogyny. yeah and also, if it's if nursing is percent female, surely you know, we should be applauded in attempts to have men you know rebalance the gender divide . oh yeah where's gender divide. oh yeah where's the male nurses come and encourage men into nursing you see, barclay's is one of those men jonathan. well i mean do we that's the thing like these kind ofjobs that's the thing like these kind of jobs people choose to do them. and it does seem to be heavily skewed towards women. i think there's that extra of caring and nurturing sort of bedside that women can bedside manner that women can just how dare you . just do the. men, how dare you. well, it's a compliment, i'm telling the council i meant to be nice. but anyway, i don't about the made up story , the about the made up story, the real story on the front cover, the guardian you do occasionally see, you know and amongst sort of clickbait pieces how of the clickbait pieces how everything racist and sexist everything is racist and sexist you do the occasional bit of you do see the occasional bit of good investing. it's of journalism the guardian here journalism by the guardian here we've the michelle moon scandal yeah. i've got a good yeah. and i've got a good overview of it leo but i'm still on some of details because i've just been handed this tolstoy

novel piece before novel love a piece just before we go on the guardian's, they've deftly gone in, they've offered like 50 article and we like a 50 page article and we know she's in trouble over know that she's in trouble over these contracts involving these puppy contracts involving med and a second med pro and, and a second company called fire diagnostics . it looks as though mona , . and it looks as though mona, her husband p metro and of her husband and p metro and of the intermediary companies he sounds a bit dodgy in the supply appear to have made in excess of 100 million in profit. yeah from government worth 203 million point to a guardian as you say not to words we only put together the say that's a 50. so you know there is the vip lane for ppe contracts. so you know government ministers, the normal rules of sort of checking out and putin could go the tender didn't didn't happen things were just rushed through but in this case it looks as if michelle moon has lobbied for these contracts over moon has lobbied for these contracts ove r £200 million and contracts over £200 million and 50% of that has been creamed as just you you know, it just cash. you you know, it looks from the outset, i don't want to get myself in legal trouble here, but considering

she's apparently fleeing the country, think i mean, country, i don't think i mean, you've to be the country you've got to be in the country to, sue someone. i mean, it looks like she's taking some time out to clear her name. yeah i not it's not really i mean, it's not it's not really being cleared so she's also being cleared so far. she's also sailing racehorse and sailing sailing a racehorse and sailing a yacht. she probably during love with income from the love time with income from the numberplate scam . and there's numberplate scam. and there's all money, you know, filed all this money, you know, filed into into offshore companies and.then into into offshore companies and. then there's all these circuitous routes that the trade to the trade the sort of it looks like they tried to launder the money through distance themselves from it, but then whistleblowers at the bank apparently told, you apparently apparently told, you know, said know, revealed this, they said a potential fraud. well, this is the of profiteering that people were saying would be taking place during the middle of the pandemic. is everyone saying no? it's just conspiracy? no one's doing would use this, doing that. no would use this, you catastrophe advantage you know, catastrophe advantage themselves. here we are. themselves. but here we are. yeah, yeah. my favourite quote is that rishi. said he was is that rishi. she said he was absolutely shocked by the report. matt report. just spoken to matt hancock some messed stuff up hancock on some messed stuff up just that satire was purely

satire that no one's done wrong. just want to be clear that for something to be more shocked if they've found a politician who hadnt they've found a politician who hadn't their pockets with taxpayer money that they managed to divert cayman islands accounts for a mere from pgp. bearin accounts for a mere from pgp. bear in mind i think the taxpayer spen t £16 billion bear in mind i think the taxpayer spent £16 billion on ppe and we just got some face masks for that. so those are some billion, though. some there that, you know, i've definitely gone into got into some some of these pockets anyway how about these pockets anyway how about the daily express jonathan. yeah so this is a story about the meghan and harry netflix documentary patronising fury over attack on queen's life's work . so that's been a bit of over attack on queen's life's work. so that's been a bit of an uproar and an outcry about the documents where meghan has sort of been, you know, i'll be disrespectful to the queen sort of making fun calling, calling the queen's work the empire 2.0, which , you know, upset a lot of which, you know, upset a lot of people. i haven't watched it. you've seen the first episode, right? what's wrong with empire

christmas even after strikes. so some routes will be cut for almost month as operators wrestle with the full impact of the overtime ban and it yeah it's going to go go on and on till tomorrow where i said the ban was meant to it was meant to be run no transits on the 18th of december. and i also expect we are unable to run any trains north banbury on its london to birmingham network after north banbury on its london to birrfour�*nam network after north banbury on its london to birrfour days1etwork after north banbury on its london to birrfour days of work after north banbury on its london to birrfour days of strikes after north banbury on its london to birrfour days of strikes end fter north banbury on its london to birrfour days of strikes end on' the four days of strikes end on 7th january. this feels like 7th of january. this feels like traffic this traffic report reading this about a4. i'm about passengers on the a4. i'm just you back information just giving you back information . yeah. so basically this strike is going to go even longer, going to destroy the trains for months it's a months to come. and it's all a total nightmare. you say, total nightmare. as you say, train don't paid, train drivers don't get paid, so they to in the army. they have to bring in the army. probably get paid as probably who get paid half as much as train driver. and yet much as a train driver. and yet we get some get some nurses we get some we get some nurses to ride the trains when the system works. the train drivers are 70, 80, 80 grand are run like 70, 80, 80 grand and they literally don't even have steering wheel, you have a steering wheel, you know what it's harder to what i mean? it's harder to drive car so. yeah, it seems drive a car so. yeah, it seems it seems that , you know, it seems unfair that, you know, so, well—paid. seems so, so well—paid. it seems almost of mafia almost they're are sort of mafia using the leverage of the power

that got a sort of that they've got a sort of monopoly over over driving trains to force to give them trains to force us to give them more we're like more money. we're like communists against rest of communists against the rest of the country. carry on. kind the country. carry on. you kind of the feeling everything's of get the feeling everything's of get the feeling everything's of apart a little bit. of falling apart a little bit. everything's strike. does everything's on strike. it does seem into seem that we're going into a second world country. it feels like that's best, how like if that's what at best, how bad ? hey, i'm positive. i'm bad? hey, i'm positive. i'm thinking, know , i think i'm thinking, you know, i think i'm half size. not i don't half the size. i'm not i don't go as far as say i sympathise with strikers to point but it's when you destroy christmas and nurses strike at same nurses go on strike at the same time and whole thing like time and the whole thing like you just collapses into a you say just collapses into a sort developed world sort of developed third world probably banana probably had okay banana republic until republic how long until automation just takes automation comes in just takes over be over everything will be automated this is part of the automated. this is part of the reason a lot of the terms that the are striking the train drivers are striking for maintain unnecessary for is to maintain unnecessary and automation and and prevent automation and prevent that allow prevent things that would allow staff to be laid off and repossession and more are very productive. i wait till a robot comes from replaces me to do this job is going to be amazing. we're working it, john, to be honest, we could do it with a

wooden spoon, murphy said. josh hawley i suppose in the first one ican hawley i suppose in the first one i can think of, i get in trouble for saying it . i one i can think of, i get in trouble for saying it. i mean, i think, you know, train drivers going on strike. it's not going to make much difference because most of the train doesn't even turn you have to get turn off anyway. you have to get on a bus, replacement bus on a bus, a replacement bus service. it's a good point when used do comedy before used to do comedy gigs before i was from comedy with was retired from comedy with just words, the bus would just the words, the bus would stop me doing the gig, you know, like because it's such a nightmare. we have to get i nightmare. we have to get well i don't leo the train don't know leo think the train i think will have a big think this will have a big impact on trying to travel at christmas you said the other day it's you so you don't it's great for you so you don't have christmas plans have to do your christmas plans but anyone else it's going but for anyone else it's going to total nightmare. i think to be a total nightmare. i think nothing is going to be a lot of relief. they're to relief. man oh, they're happy to see to see the mother in see you and to see the mother in law. yeah i mean, you've already been you. hey, the strike anyway. but think this will anyway. but i think this will actually off neutral people actually put off neutral people who sympathetic the who are more sympathetic to the right. absolutely. well, right. yeah, absolutely. well, fingers and of course, fingers crossed. and of course, keir come said keir starmer has come and said he's offer the he's actually going to offer the more bribe get more money as a bribe to get votes well thing that's just for

the nurses. but anyway, so i thought telegraph and we all want tax but want to less tax but kwasi kwarteng to make kwarteng regrets trying to make this jonathan yes indeed. this happen jonathan yes indeed. kwasi he truss kwasi kwarteng says he and truss blew presumably. blew it, presumably. boris johnson mr. kwarteng johnson so mrs. mr. kwarteng said. short lived said. liz truss short lived government during its government blew it during its time charge the country. time in charge of the country. he truss is seven he said. ms. truss is seven weeks downing street, which weeks on downing street, which culminated in her loss of complete political authority resignation get resignation so her top team get carried . they well they carried away. they well they weren't the dream team we thought they could be. they were short and know, they short lived and you know, they tanked pound its lowest tanked the pound to its lowest you amount in 37 years. i mean it came back . well, it was worth it came back. well, it was worth a pound. yeah yes. well, relative to whatever it is, gold, galleons, whatever other countries use. but he said his biggest regret was that we weren't tactically and we were too impatient. there was a brief moment people in charge moment and the people in charge , included, it. , myself included, blew it. i kind feel a bit bad them. kind of feel a bit bad them. they sort of have this. i mean, i'd actually forgotten about until article, but until i read this article, but this this legacy of in this of have this legacy of in and, not doing too well. and, out and not doing too well. well, i mean, it is a bit that

people got carried away. i mean, you know, we know quite a thing said a mile got said there was a mile got carried there was no carried away there was no tactical certainty whatsoever we noticed. between noticed. but i'm torn between having the fact that having some for the fact that they were trying to attempt growth versus fact they growth versus the fact that they squandered the opportunity and have us into this have now plunged us into this socialist what we is socialist hell what we is absurdly tax and we're just absurdly high tax and we're just the country's just getting poorer. know i found out poorer. did you know i found out they were now poorer than every single state. yeah. it's single us state. yeah. it's shocking . and guess what else? shocking. and guess what else? by shocking. and guess what else? by 2020 it's anticipated . have by 2020 it's anticipated. have a lower gdp per capita than poland. poland i mean they used to coming over here to from our economy we'll be going over there to pick their crops and all the rest of it. well are in britain in the seventies where they the man of they were the sick man of europe. we you know, economy was doing so terribly london was was hollowed know this is hollowed out you know this is this well before the boom this is well before the boom years everybody years when everybody funnelled back those up. back and pushed those prices up. so well you think it's a so yeah. well you think it's a new seventies? seventies point. oh, be. and you oh, it could well be. and you also, you saw the interview also, if you saw the interview four weeks quote, i also four weeks ago, quote, i also that told truss to slow

that he told liz truss to slow down. so he is claiming like i was saying it was too fast. but between two of them, they made a real mess of it. now we're real mess of it. and now we're all blame. but now in all that to blame. but now in the hands of the jeremy hunt's gordon brown type thinking. gordon brown type of thinking. yeah. as though, yeah. and it seems as though, you there's never going to you know, there's never going to be that's going to be a government that's going to attempt high growth, low attempt a high growth, low tax regime for, i mean, probably for another decade at least because it's been tarred by there it's now been tarred by there incompetent implementation of it. well, this guy, mark littlewood, the director of the iea , had a sort of funny analogy iea, had a sort of funny analogy about this. he said, you have the recipe making the most the recipe for making the most perfect delicious and perfect and delicious pizza. and the growth the pizza here is high growth economic . but if the chef is economic. but if the chef is hubristic or crazy or incompetent, you're not going end up with a particularly tasty pizza. that mean shouldn't pizza. does that mean shouldn't eat it just eat pizza again? no, it just means shouldn't pizza cooked means shouldn't eat pizza cooked by when you're by that chef. you when you're he's committed, you regret an analogy halfway through. yeah, he's i mean, he's got a good point i mean, he's got a good point i mean, he's there's nothing he's saying there's nothing wrong of wrong with these kind of principles, but they just didn't apply yeah okay. apply them very well. yeah okay. and now and and they're the times now and justin got locks his

justin welby got locks on his doors in a big wall his doors in a big wall in his house. but that this house. but he says that this should have open borders. nick this makes me angry. as a christian and as a person. justin welby condemns cruelty of uk's asylum policy. he's saying that he's talking about the harmful rhetoric of invading i want to be very concerned about his rhetoric. this is the his rhetoric. so this is the church again sticking its church once again sticking its war into politics and it's always a lefty or always what the labour party say the labour party would say really these liberals have really it's these liberals have infiltrated the church they should really stick to christianity but they've ditched that in favour of left wing politics and. we've had it's a very bad time because down here we've had a there was a priest on today saying that he advocates the ban on prayer near abortion centres, which is bizarre and that it was pro—abortion, which was also strange to me. but then we've also had crown prosecution also had the crown prosecution service that reading the service saying that reading the bible in public parts of may bible in public parts of it may be illegal. christianity is be illegal. so christianity is under and we're trying to under fire and we're trying to survive dwindling as survive and. well, dwindling as well. saw with the census of well. we saw with the census of the census showed that it's fallen than half . the uk

fallen to less than half. the uk is in 2050, islam is is christian in 2050, islam is going to be the largest religion in the uk. exactly. and it and you think well we would be rallying to defend christianity instead he's poke his nose into politics and loving your neighbour letting neighbour doesn't mean letting anyone into the country and then you know that doesn't love your immediate neighbour who's already you can already in the country. you can love from distance. yeah, love them from a distance. yeah, but neighbour but what about actual neighbour who's is citizen. who's already next is a citizen. yeah. so it's all this sort of woolly sort yes can always woolly sort of. yes can always find a quote to back this up, but it's just welby sticking his nose yeah. jonathan. nose in again. yeah. jonathan. no as well. no no rabidly rightwing as well. no no. i don't even know what i am so. he says a compassionate so. well he says a compassionate system not borders, system does not open borders, but disposition of and but a disposition of and readiness to welcome those who need genuinely need asylum. need who genuinely need asylum. now you can't argue with that, but then again, he's not really saying anything. it's kind of it's a bit a platitude. but i mean, i agree we should completely treat these people as individuals, as, you know, humans it humans in need of help, but it doesn't of the tough doesn't really any of the tough questions just sort questions that with it just sort of like we should be nice

of being like we should be nice like, yeah, it's nice to be nice. yeah, if you you continue to nice of an open to be nice and of an open borders as we as we borders policy as we as we basically do know with such an exploitable asylum system, you're going continue have you're going to continue to have people that people coming across making that very it's very dangerous crossing. it's a terrible system all around. it's bad bad for us. bad for them. it's bad for us. there be avenues there should be legal avenues for immigration rather this that's illegal. yeah. i mean the system we all agree it's a bad policy so well be jumping in to saying i also think it's a bad policy and i really should be representing the church it's just as it's not just not helpful as it's not it's not useful it's just not useful intervention he's not providing a solutions, which i think religious so religious should do anyway. so think mirror and the think these mirror and the government illegal give government is it illegal to give women jonathan indeed. so women? jonathan indeed. so sexual harassers . the street sexual harassers. the street will be jailed for up to two years under a new law . so people years under a new law. so people who sexually harass women in the street or on public transport face up to two years in prison under new legislation, the government has thrown its weight behind bill by behind private member's bill by minister clark to make minister greg clark to make sexual harassment a specific

offence. i thought it was already. i mean, apparently it already. i mean, apparently it already is an offence, but this already is an offence, but this a bit different. i think it's specific to women, which is if thatis specific to women, which is if that is the that's slightly confusing to me because we've got different laws apply to different people. even if you say the same thing to them, that's bit sort of a bit that's bit that's sort of a bit confusing. what like confusing. what if it was like a same sex street harassment? would that not be punishable by if a woman did it? for one? my understanding is the sex crime laws different between men laws are different between men and women . okay, obviously, bill and women. okay, obviously, bill definitely enough. fair enough . definitely enough. fair enough. but it's penalty. it's not going to be it's not going to be something like wolf. it's going to be aggressively following someone in your car or really kind of shouting abuse of somebody. is i mean, somebody. danger is i mean, following someone's this is slowly along street slowly driving along the street next to someone. i mean, with all mile hour zones all these 20 mile an hour zones in you risk trying to in london, you risk trying to keep to the speed limit and accidentally committing a hate place licence at the place on your licence at the prison. you've got yeah, prison. you've got to go. yeah, yeah. but is it. that is a dangen yeah. but is it. that is a danger. yeah. look, i'm against

the harassment of women on the street. said street. i've always said that where do nice. what you where you do it. nice. what you look there's been some look obviously there's been some horrific incidents and why they want to tackle this but what you want to tackle this but what you want more police the want is more police on the streets that's you want streets that's what you want more yeah and more visibility. yeah yeah and i've which of i've comment which is sort of ambiguous someone could say okay, leo made an obscene well bad because probably bad example because he probably did, say john did, but they could say john just obscene me. just made an obscene cover me. then you two years then they can get you two years in surely what we better in prison. surely what we better to actually protect women will be on the streets, which be more on the streets, which they'll that would they'll never do, but that would actually it. whereas is actually do it. whereas this is sort gesture politics i don't sort of gesture politics i don't think will achieve much. i mean. i think it's terrible that there's being there's this culture women being you intimidated you know harassed intimidated on street which, you know, definitely uk like definitely exists in the uk like one of female friends who live overseas , come the uk, overseas, they come to the uk, come london, they're like come to london, they're like oh my you this is this my god. you know, this is this is not somebody trying to grab me all the rest of it. and it me all the rest of it. so and it doesn't happen in canada. it doesn't happen in canada. it doesn't know, more doesn't in, you know, more civilised the way civilised places. but the way this law be worded is, you this law could be worded is, you know, again attempt to chat know, again an attempt to chat someone the street someone up in the street in a gentle, you know, non

threatening, we could be , you threatening, we could be, you know, they should give like official government chat up lines that you have to use. if you one of those, that's you say one of those, that's okay. if tv, i think okay. and if tv, i think everybody's onto everybody's being forced onto onto dating apps, forced onto tinder , we're losing that thing. tinder, we're losing that thing. and it's almost like, know, and it's almost like, you know, people, can't deal people, old people can't deal with banking apps. with the with the banking apps. so people probably can't deal with dating apps either. with with dating apps either. it's bad news for those that pick up on the day bank women for. the italian on jail and stuff. yeah they'll be perfect jacket . yes and so anyway ending jacket. yes and so anyway ending this section the guardian and buying twitter seems to have been disastrous for elon musk's finances. but what a great guy. elon musk could lose world's richest person title is tesla almost halved and his net worth has gone down about 70 billion which is never good and a tesla price has plunged 49. and tesla shareholders worry that he's spending too much time on. twitter makes it not only unnecessary tweeting , working unnecessary tweeting, working both both both tweeting

both public, both both tweeting and running but he's doing and running it, but he's doing it humanity. as we know. it for humanity. as we know. he's not it for money. of he's not doing it for money. of course, that's concern. he's course, that's a concern. he's trying all these trying to run all these businesses, had it. businesses, but he had to do it. it was great thing and it's annoying right people. annoying all the right people. i mean, john is just left mean, elton john is just left twitter today. i mean, i misinformation. i mean, i've literally released proving literally just released proving that suppressed that the people prior suppressed to and musk has fixed that and elton john's had that means misinformed because he's just a shell of the establishment. yeah and he wants to go and promote his brands. told him all that his brands. i told him all that cocaine. it and he is cocaine. yeah. yes, it and he is i think people are back on roger stone's got back on, laura lim's back on. so of course leftists don't like this big tech, don't like because we're gonna have like it because we're gonna have an again an equal playing again unless everyone mastodon everyone just goes to mastodon and flounces off. but i think it's a great thing he's on. i think it's a revolution for free speech. the question will it speech. the question is will it work will will big tech work or will will will big tech the democrats all these the democrats and all these powerful sabotage powerful people just sabotage it and turn twitter and sort of try and turn twitter into parler by just leaving and getting out who but people leave and they come back week

and they come back in a week everyone's makes big deal. everyone's makes a big deal. they leave then they just say leave and then they even yeah, they never even leave. yeah, that's classic media that's classic social media thing flip an thing to do to. flip an announcer if at departure announcer is if at departure board at an airport and you just reappear as anyone reappear as if anyone cares, like, it's always some weird like, oh, it's always some weird thing, still be here a bit thing, i'll still be here a bit to sometimes. i know. to check in sometimes. i know. shut talking. do shut up, stop talking. why do even hey reached the halfway even say hey reached the halfway point after the break we've got shark week. is racist. no, shark week. it is racist. no, apparently with everything else we've the we've got free condoms for the french. and we've also got south koreans of best remedy egypt koreans of best remedy for egypt . see you in 2 minutes.

we welcome back the headliners we've beat saturday's times now in scotland invented transgenderism with the but nicola sturgeon's plans let men self—identify as women to get access to female spaces such as prisons have been criticised .

prisons have been criticised. that's right. so headline is the snp's self—identity bill could harm women's rights in england. so uk ministers have called nicholas sturgeon to scrap plans to , let scottish people to, let scottish people self—declare as the opposite sex over fears it could to legal chaos and undermine women's rights in england under legislation expected to be passed by the scottish parliament christmas people over the of 16 will be able to the age of 16 will be able to apply for a berth with a new sex within six months without a dysphoria diagnosis. so the opfion dysphoria diagnosis. so the option in scotland is to just self—identify . get the new birth self—identify. get the new birth possible and you don't have to be by a doctor. so that's sort of no barriers now that we once were . so senior uk government were. so senior uk government figures fear move which is not available to people in england could allow biologically biologically scottish biologically male scottish prisoners sorry in prisoners in england. sorry in engush prisoners in england. sorry in english jails to demand to be placed in female only prisons. so seems to be a sort so this seems to be a sort a disconnect here between, what's allowed and what's allowed in scotland and what's not you can go people could not so you can go people could go scotland can go go up to scotland see i can go up i'm a woman. up scotland. see, i'm a woman. i get my birth certificate, then i

go down to england and i've go down to england and now i've access. i'm recognised as a access. now i'm recognised as a woman and it's like, you know passport too. yeah. they're calling tourism and calling it gender tourism and there's like kemi there's people like kemi badenoch that it badenoch pointing out that it won't fully won't be able be fully contained, be legal contained, there'll be legal chaos and they're even saying the government it, the government could take it, they the scottish they could take the scottish government to the supreme court they could take the scottish govethis. nt to the supreme court they could take the scottish govethis. soto the supreme court they could take the scottish govethis. so yeah, supreme court they could take the scottish govethis. so yeah, isrpreme court they could take the scottish govethis. so yeah, is thisne court over this. so yeah, is this typical sturgeon she has typical sturgeon stuff she has to opposite of england, to do the opposite of england, ukraine, little communist ukraine, weird little communist dictatorship , scotland it dictatorship, scotland where it doesn't to care about the effect on children it's just going to allow children to based on allow children to be based on mutual with of course having mutual aid with of course having law. mean in law. there's a huge i mean in glasgow they're treating as young as nine with puberty blockers which is you know, to me, to my mind, i'm a doctor, but it just seems way young but it just seems way too young and also there's a huge incentive for criminals to identify as women, because then it hides your previous convictions because anybody you'll convicted under your previous name , so you get a new previous name, so you get a new name, you get to call yourself susan or whatever. and then you also get to go to a female and probably continue committing crimes shocks about

crimes. what shocks me about this live north london. this is i live north london. i've spoken to the ultra liberal people in north london who disagree on everything, but disagree me on everything, but the thing they is the one thing they agree on is that wants puberty that no one wants puberty blockers especially that no one wants puberty blockechildren especially that no one wants puberty blocke children who pecially that no one wants puberty blocke children who can'tlly young children who can't properly understand the consequences i'm not sure consequences of it. i'm not sure anyone can really understand the concepts, but why is sturgeon still pushing and i can't still pushing it? and i can't believe scotland believe the people of scotland want yeah, it doesn't want it at all. yeah, it doesn't make to me anyway. the daily make any to me anyway. the daily mail is apparently on mail shark week is apparently on you is a bad idea to call them great white sharks nick. yep. that was all mistakenly . so now that was all mistakenly. so now shark week is racist. woke post claims discovery predator claims annual discovery predator fest features too many white male experts on screen and apparently too many of them are called mike. so this is all about breaking the glass of white male shark experts called . that's problem we've . mike that's a problem we've long known about . and so they long known about. and so they said there was actually more people in this thing named mike than so their day. than women. so that's their day. and like why there's and it's like why there's so many mike's mike look, it's mike. yeah, exactly . and the mike. yeah, exactly. and the other funny part is it other funny part is that it emphasised messages about sharks

like you had a bad lived experience with a shark, like an eight you or something, you know, that could can't use how do your negative. do you express your negative. yeah jonathan when shark week just dealt with , you know, good just dealt with, you know, good positive benign representations of sharks be a bit boring it would be less exciting but i do actually i'm some of the coming from a that because apparently shark attacks are so few far between compared to everyone's perception how regularly perception of how regularly i mean everyone is mean everyone's everyone is terrified sharks though terrified sharks even though that's such quite a lot though because thinks because everyone thinks since they to go in the they want things to go in the sea, get eaten i think sea, you get eaten by. i think about every time so that's about that every time so that's what the sharks live right. our perception 100% risk. yeah. perception is 100% risk. yeah. so if it's even like 50 so if even if it's even like 50 people kill, that's still people they kill, that's still a less it's still less than perception. it's still quite yeah, and that's quite a lot. yeah, and that's fair. and think part of the fair. and i think part of the problem here is that they've really just like so these shark experts, people who've experts, the people who've chosen you know, this chosen to, you know, study this field become in it and field and they become in it and now they're being now they're almost being punished being punished just for being successful it . yes. guess successful in it. yes. guess being called mike being , that is being called mike being, that is unforgivable. yeah . it's not unforgivable. but yeah. it's not

on. yeah. well the guardian on. yeah yeah. well the guardian and south koreans have been laying about their eyes just like you do on. yeah i'm 18 on it. so all south koreans to become 18 but actually 12. yeah so i know i can get on so all south koreans to become younger as traditional system scrapped this is quite exciting south korea is to scrap its traditional of counting ages and adopt international standard. a change that will knock off one or two years off people's ages official documents but could take some time to seep into daily life. so this is really good news if you're a 30 year old single woman because you're now if you're dating an now 28. but if you're dating an 18 old, news for you 18 year old, bad news for you because know they're because they know they're suddenly now 60. yeah. suddenly gay. now 60. yeah. you've become a non you've become a become a non you've become a problematic person . i don't know what the person. i don't know what the rules are yet, but yeah, it's exciting. so they basically rejig system. yeah, rejig the whole system. yeah, yeah. it's i mean, what a yeah. great. it's i mean, what a strange system you're born in and youn strange system you're born in and your, immediately and your, your, you immediately want. but then you can be, you've be born just for the you've just be born just for the 1st of january. now you're

1st of january. so now you're two. and you actually only two. yeah. and you actually only about so your age about five days old. so your age ratchets 1st of ratchets up and the 1st of january, no matter day of the year born yeah. yeah. year you're born on. yeah. yeah. and a separate system as and there's a separate system as well calculating service well for calculating service where they, where they, they find out the age, it's what it in those cases a person's age is calculated zero birth and a year is added on new year's day. so they go from 0 to 1 on tuesday other everyone goes from 1 to 1 again on to two. on tuesday. it's not even on site. what i want to say, this is south korea. this is why north korea like you have a mad system. why didn't the world step and didn't the world step in and say, guys, it's say, stop doing, guys, it's ridiculous. they finally are. i'm bit torn because i'm i'm a bit torn because i'm nationalism. but this is nationalism. but yeah, this is really so much information, but it's yeah, it's obviously mental. yeah, all of before joint of the time before joint birthday parties . that's birthday parties. yeah, that's about the odd advantage though, isn't it . i about the odd advantage though, isn't it. i mean, other than you can suddenly younger. so can now suddenly younger. so yeah, they're all relishing suddenly being but party emerged because had no their because they had no their ancient numerical system didn't have concept that's have a concept that's interesting like right interesting that's like right yeah they can can they yeah right. so they can can they just one. but when you

just invent one. but when you need zero anyway, so you know, if you're if you're michelle moon you something to moon and, you need something to add the ones after amount of add on the ones after amount of money into your account money put into your account anyway and something for anyway the no and something for the weekend. francis honda rubber journeys the young people can you see where they're coming from nick well oh i see from nick well yeah. oh i see what you did that. france announced free condoms for announced this. free condoms for 18 to 25 year olds across the country. so this is macron. he's doing to prevent easter ties doing it to prevent easter ties andifs doing it to prevent easter ties and it's interesting because it will presumably infections. right. france has a problem right. but france has a problem like much of europe with birth, they're at 1.83 birth rate, which is too . then again, leo, which is too. then again, leo, for balance , it is quite a good for balance, it is quite a good thing to have less or fewer french people. so i'm, i'm torn, save it for the match tomorrow . save it for the match tomorrow. now getting the banter in early i mean the last time i saw a french three about contraception was eight invented these sort of very tight pants that made your genhaua very tight pants that made your genitalia closed your body warming up your spermatozoa. so it basically fried it. what's

wrong that they moved on to condoms? now that's much less exciting. well, condoms seem more reliable than slightly worn both. and it's all belt and braces approach, no pun intended. do you want? intended. but what do you want? your leo, go into your tax dollars? leo, go into this because what they this because that's what they say. free. not. there's no say. it's free. not. there's no such thing a free. you get such thing as a free. you get the it's tax if you go to like a health place, which i've never, ever been to call, i don't believe they you free believe it. they give you free condoms. which part don't you believe that i'm the in check? i'd rather know. that's say i'd rather not know. that's say it's say thank it's just safer. just say thank you. it to god. you. i'll leave it to god. yeah yeah. no, exactly . i yeah. no, i mean exactly. i mean, also government procurement. you the french version . michelle moon will be version. michelle moon will be purchasing those condom for £1,000 each from our brothers company. and the money will be into the cayman islands anyway . into the cayman islands anyway. we need to put a condom. we need to get a prophylactic go for political spending. that's where it to the times. it needs to go on to the times. no.and it needs to go on to the times. no. and as boys worser and no. and as boys do, worser and worser because we're worser school because we're think should only schools be think should boy only schools be scrapped jonathan the scrapped jonathan that's the question time's up should boys schools scrapped they come in schools be scrapped they come in for boys i like male only

for boys i don't like male only spaces poor results and concerns about boys about behaviour are pushing boys schools to go co—ed but all girl institution have a different take on single sex schooling. many that many experts believe that traditional boys only schools could wiped out completely in could be wiped out completely in the decade , so quite a few the next decade, so quite a few of really famous ones like eton college , which was always, you college, which was always, you know , very kind of prestigious. know, very kind of prestigious. well a high achieving school. it's dropped out of top it's now dropped out of the top 15 fee paying schools . and that 15 fee paying schools. and that seems seems seems there seems to be a pattern with that with other all boys schools. is that just because boys lives, they because boys are lives, they don't about school because i cool don't it is cool about it i don't what it is it be maybe it's that male it must be maybe it's that male privilege i about and that privilege i hear about and that is are in school. is why men are worse in school. and then when they graduate, they're killing them in school. worse getting worse. worse or boys getting worse. because schools getting because if it's schools getting less women doing less women or women are doing better. better better. girls are doing better at maybe it's the at school yeah maybe it's the widespread men boys and widespread of men and boys and the culture and the they the culture and the fact they have aspire one have nothing to aspire to. one hates them and they just end up watching andrew videos watching andrew tape videos because that because the only one that actually about them, it actually cares about them, it could i mean,

could be that. i mean, look, boys, it's totally as boys, it's totally unequal, as you because that's going you said, because that's going to schools. but i to keep girls schools. but i just want to get rid of boys cos they'll mixed schools and they'll be mixed schools and girls what is. girls schools and what is. because are doing better because girls are doing better as say, a cynical attempt to as you say, a cynical attempt to get exams starts up, they get the exams starts up, they bnng get the exams starts up, they bring few, they get better bring in a few, they get better results they us now. results as they look at us now. but then there's no school. but then there's no boys school. so fair so yes i'm and so how that fair so yes i'm and this idea that men that they've managed to call boys toxic they brought up masculinity brought up toxic masculinity even so it's just even in the article so it's just constant not enough constant it's not good enough that doing at that you're doing worse at school. to constantly school. you've got to constantly be you're just who's be called. you're just who's actually looking out boys. actually looking out for boys. so no wonder they're going so it's no wonder they're going they're worse. educate they're getting worse. educate of course, coursework favours girls proven exams of course, coursework favours girls employees.»roven exams of course, coursework favours girls employees. yeah, exams of course, coursework favours girls employees. yeah, yeah,s saves employees. yeah, yeah, yeah. men better yeah. so where men are better you where there's a stress you know where there's a stress awful got cram awful thing you've got to cram for and then get through. for and then then get through. yes style out at the last minute. since introduction minute. yeah. since introduction of girls done better of course. but girls done better because it's more, you the because it's more, you know, the more sensible that we i say more sensible is that we i say that that's that's of like that that's that's sort of like reverse and i was sort reverse misogyny and i was sort of positive. not sure of positive. yeah i'm not sure i'll get in trouble someone i'll get in trouble with someone that sure who. yeah that but i'm not sure who. yeah but anyway little break

welcome back to the final part of today's headliners bite south of today's headliners bite south of these telegraph and useless parents are trying to blame a computer game for their own terrible failure. so how i would a bit less sort of aggressive but yeah parents can sue fortnite now because it's depnve fortnite now because it's deprive their children of sleep and showers this is in canada so yeah the kids have just been playing fortnite instead of looking after and led them looking after and it's led them forego sleep food and hygiene . forego sleep food and hygiene. of course heroin can also do that you can't heroin but so this question is are videogames addictive ? and the judges addictive? and the judges basically concluded that they are potentially addictive but there's no evidence that they

were deliberately . it's a bit were deliberately. it's a bit silly because, of course, games pretty much are designed be addictive. dopamine for addictive. you get dopamine for hitting new levels. what were you going well, yeah, you going to say? well, yeah, well, they're be they used to well, they're to be they used to be designed fun and make be designed to be fun and make you to have best you want to have the best experience and would experience possible. and would give you'd get give you dopamine and you'd get in that of cycle where you just keep wanting to beat level, keep wanting to beat the level, keep wanting to beat the level, keep back. now they keep coming back. but now they actually them be actually do engineer them to be like especially things like especially all the things like especially all the things like candy crush and stuff like that. allegedly they specifically you specifically make them, you know, the old noise. know, you get the old noise. it's one on bandit it's almost like a one on bandit machine. they yeah, they've got psychologists working companies to addictive, to try and make it addictive, you try and try and you know, just try and try and activate pathways activate those neural pathways 100% pleasure 100% hijacks your pleasure system kid i love video system. i as a kid i love video games. always playing games. i was always playing them, but i would never in a nut bath not show because of it. i would not bath because i was well, i just play . i started well, ijust play. i started saying i'm making a joke right. i will fix most . yeah, yeah. i will fix most. yeah, yeah. parents be better. don't let your kids be addicts . yeah,

your kids be addicts. yeah, yeah. it's probably it is probably the parent's responsibility then again there are some kids are just so obsessive way they get hooked into game they're almost into the game and they're almost impossible so don't know impossible to stop so don't know it's slow the it's just very slow down the middle take me there. middle of road. take me there. i see all sides of this the regular kid do you play any video games you like the video games you seem like the sort person who would sort of person who would how dare i don't anymore dare you know? i don't anymore i can play it goldeneye on all settings that that was like settings that was that was like decade week anyway . no, decade last week anyway. no, jonathan, i know you're not allowed to lego allowed to play with lego because the pieces but lego have started with crikey fury , started a war with crikey fury, a new lego set that used landmarks and city for other countries , but depicts australia countries, but depicts australia with a dusty shed. and that's what they call sydney opera house. so all about a new lego set, but depicting the country as a random s stars tossed a whole while. other countries are represented by famous . so this represented by famous. so this is this is quite funny so the lego creator postcards that is set to be released in first with different versions depicting , different versions depicting, different versions depicting, different countries. so you've got big ben in, you've got new york , the us, but the australia

york, the us, but the australia one is just a dusty wasteland because you know, they like to because you know, they like to be true to life. i love the way you gave us a date, as if we're going to. here we go. i hope we have a picture. what's that one? which australia. which one's? that's australia. nice. a set and then a nice. it's got a set and then a little thing of a kangaroo saying kangaroos and the saying kangaroos and that's the only can. are no only way you can. there are no clouds australia. that is clouds in australia. that is broadly australia broadly what australia looks like. were going to like. i mean were you going to have i mean obviously we've got big harrison is the guy for that what they a what australia have they have a load in australia but load of the in australia but that's space i've spent that's the space i've spent a lot of time in australia and it's amazing a continent it's amazing as a continent there's basically it there's basically a constant it is vast, goes from like is vast, it goes from like tropical rainforests queens tropical rainforests and queens island way island and darwin all the way down you've got the down through. you've got the deserts and then you've got temperate penguins they. temperate penguins don't they. don't melbourne. then don't by melbourne. yeah then west got west australia you've got stingray all the stingray and sharks and all the rest of it. it's amazing you want there. but i was want to live there. but i was saying you that wouldn't saying to you that you wouldn't at we'd all be at work because we'd all be asleep you try to do your asleep when you try to do your phone and tv whatever. so phone to and tv or whatever. so it's going to work it's not going to work practically yeah. i mean, practically is it. yeah. i mean, if i lived in australia i

probably wouldn't work for. you'd like a crocodile, it'd you'd be like a crocodile, it'd be australian news, be like some australian news, something could work. something i could, i could work. yeah. missed on yeah. the thing they missed on that pictures that that was that lego pictures that that was actually covid actually one those are covid detention lab we detention camps the meth lab we see i get those about it see that i get those about it it's like a joke yeah because australia did have quite an authoritarian approach to covid anyway. british anyway. the times and british waste sent into waste is going to be sent into space. nick oh yeah . now space. nick oh yeah. now ostensibly was a boring ostensibly this was a boring space until i realised it was a brilliant pro cumbria story. it was so yes , they're going to was so yes, they're going to send radioactive waste send this radioactive waste space. americium , i space. this is americium, i think it's cool. and this a game changer because we used to have to get stuff from the to get this stuff from the united states and russia, but now we've figured out this americium can extracted from americium can be extracted from nuclear not going nuclear and we're not going to need guys anymore. we're need those guys anymore. we're going our smoke going to make our own smoke onthis smoke detectors onthis using smoke detectors in most, apparently. but now they've this new use for they've found this new use for it and it's going to be great for congress because we've got all this stored sellafield all this stored at sellafield and sort of maturing, and there's a sort of maturing, like cheese maturing where the plutonium two for one decays

over time into americium , two over time into americium, two for one, and there's going to a £19 million laboratory in cambridge to incorporate in the fuel into battery like cells that can be sent space. so it's very good. so we just. the coal mining company. yeah all the lefties tried to block, but apparently it's now been approved, which amazing. now approved, which is amazing. now getting whatever this is and we're to the new going to we're going to the new going to be singapore well be the new singapore well they're block as they're going to block this as well nuclear waste, well because it's nuclear waste, which, generally left which, you know, generally left wing don't but wing people don't like that, but it's off earth going it's going somewhere else. it's assuming somewhere else. so it's assuming the rocket doesn't blow up, which it's going into all which case it's going into all of true. oh, they of houses. that's true. oh, they might some sort radioactive might some sort of radioactive monsters off on which be monsters off on which would be kind of scary. i think we should use this to try and get to the moon the first time. you know how went. oh, that's how we never went. oh, that's sorry guys . that's another ofcom sorry guys. that's another ofcom story. yeah, we did you don't have to cctv loads anyway. the daily star and a pub landlord is an legend on the striking real workers. jonathan this is some beautiful passive , aggressive beautiful passive, aggressive revenge here . angry pub landlord

revenge here. angry pub landlord cancels workers christmas bash due strikes so the bristol rail workers social and welfare fund won't be holding annual party at the city's port . we'll talk on the city's port. we'll talk on this christmas after the pub's landlord refused to accept them so this pub landlord is facing the wrath union leaders after cancelling a raucous christmas party due to the strikes his trade so he's basically had enough of all the strikes kind of getting the way of his business. people able business. people aren't able travel workers able travel their workers aren't able to had enough. so to get in. he's had enough. so what doing cancelling what he's doing is cancelling their last just to their party at the last just to stick to them. that's stick it to them. that's beautiful you agree with beautiful or not. you agree with the strikes which i think you guys have made clear that's a funny to do. yeah. and it funny thing to do. yeah. and it seems perfectly because. seems perfectly fair because. i mean, lockdown the mean, over over lockdown the train drivers were bailed out . train drivers were bailed out. hospitality workers often get didn't get any furlough money. the paid anyway and the real strikes are apparently to strikes are apparently going to cost hospitality industry cost the hospitality industry £1.5 billion probably more now because of they've announced more know it more strikes. so you know it seems fair that this president could. yeah, i think i think . could. yeah, i think i think.

yeah, service the yeah, deny deny service the strikers. absolutely yeah . strikers. absolutely yeah. strike either is pretty basic it's this all classic battle between these sort of aspirational small business owner and the union. the left unions. so it's a kind of classic british battle. and of course, i'm on the small side, having grown up above a little restaurant my mum and dad restaurant there. my mum and dad ran thought it was very ran so and i thought it was very cool it is. he said. he cool what it is. he said. he wrote a very polite email saying that while wish someone in that while i wish someone in their hoped that it would their action hoped that it would soon i couldn't accept the soon be. i couldn't accept the book would hypocrites book and it would be hypocrites got lost a lot of got me given. i've lost a lot of money because the strike. money because of the strike. i must fair. but then hit back must be fair. but then hit back and said i you boycott you. oh, that's the really nasty. yeah so bristol union council said bristol trade union council said that an workers that they were an anti workers and that union and he and that trade union and he associated society of associated the society of locomotive fireman said that locomotive and fireman said that trade that trade should avoid drinking that in to pub strike and in both the to pub strike and professional and professional capacity. well and what with we're going what you end up with we're going to some weird world to there's some weird world where you can only to where you can only go to of establishments follow establishments that follow your politics i mean that's why you work well exactly work hard. yeah well exactly yes. good point yes. well good point there. i think that we finish with the
