3:12 am
that everyone is telling us, we have to tell chris. no, no. you keep calm and carry on. is exactly what we've got to do. although the interesting thing is and not a lot of people know this, that that was actually never distributed the war because the government had them all rolled out. and then they thought hang on a moment, thought, hang on a moment, people aren't panicking. so they're think they they're going to think they should be panicking if we suddenly to suddenly tell them to calm, they'll thinking, on they'll be thinking, hang on a minute, i should be panicking. why should i should be panicking. they were panicking. in fact, they were never but i what else never put out, but i what else are to do? go and are we supposed to do? go and hide the duvet and hope it hide under the duvet and hope it all goes away? no everybody's got to keep calm and carry on. as say, things have been far as you say, things have been far worse. as my mother used to say to us, things about you to us, when things about you said, been through the said, we've been through the war darling. and darling. this is nothing. and she's she's right. she's correct. she's right. there's i could have there's two things i could have written. your is written. much of. your digest is today and probably better as well. way to honest well. by the way to be honest guysis well. by the way to be honest guys is this politics? i look at what labour the left are doing and really, really need them and are really, really need them to how are they to understand and how are they going piece the country back
3:13 am
going to piece the country back together know, they've made together? you know, they've made all call a coalition all this what i call a coalition of disgruntled that of the disgruntled and that isn't go away if they isn't going to go away if they the election going to the election they're going to have and what we see have to do it. and what we see here more we are the here now they're more we are the more compliant the more more compliant we are the more afraid we are the easier it is to put what us and i say this to everybody here all the time, no government made this country the people , the country made this people, the country made this country. let's give the chance. and first thing you to do is and the first thing you to do is living fear . if you got living with fear. if you got a climate activist to our children around climate change, climate change exists. but don't popular child so hard that they feel afraid for their future? well there's recognised medical there's a recognised medical complaint, isn't there? a psychological where it's like anxiety. now and it's not. and i think that's what they almost tried to do to us during, the pandemic, that sort of traumatise scared, they traumatise so scared, but they subsuming again now they succeeded in the pandemic didn't i mean, were all terrified to i mean, we were all terrified to start with, terrified to go out, terrified breathe, terrified terrified to, breathe, terrified to you to do anything. i mean, do you think. come okay not great. think. come on. okay not great. it's you know, it could be
3:14 am
better . we're not alone and, i better. we're not alone and, i think. we don't want to absolve the situation of any guilt, though, because we can't keep saying labour in the left is the tory government that has been in control for last 12 years. and i think all the stuff that you mentioned, your monologue was just testament to the tried and failed tory expert and actually we keep calm and carry on because . we can look forward to because. we can look forward to a change of government let's face this tory government too . i face this tory government too. i will say this there's no doubt that amy's correct. there has been the tory government for all that time. but let's be very, very about this. keir starmer has backed almost every single move. they have made and he has absolutely plan. he has no plan at all. so we lurch from the problem we're in now into no man's land if we are not. keir but with the lockdowns it was i want it longer. how terrible wasn't it. i mean i mean all keir starmer has to do now is keep very quiet and hope that it all lands in his lap it doesn't
3:15 am
really anything he says now is going to be analysed out of existence there is an existence because there is an outside possibility that he be prime it is going to prime minister. it is going to happenit prime minister. it is going to happen it because think that happen it because i think that with tories the of with the tories get the grip of immigration, it might but they've a whole 12 years and they've had a whole 12 years and i think this cabinet is regarded by many as the worst ever. yeah, well i know just in the last memory , the last sympathy with memory, the last sympathy with that was till you could pay it into the labour front bench. what the labour front bench. this is you have to win. you can't on the tories being terrible to lose you have to win this one. listen i would not sit here tell you huge mistakes haven't been made people would laugh if i said that but point is keir starmer and gang have not demonstrated any forward step. where is the tory gang? have pure incompetence every single level, every front immigrant in public services half the world is literally half the country is that . how hold
3:16 am
the country is that. how hold on. i'm sorry. sorry. it's my show of advertisement today. but when it comes to nhs and the strikes there in particular gdp was the same labour spending, conservative spending. so it wasn't that great under labour. so why are you just blaming the tories? because. because the wage increases have not happened . that has been 12 years in the making. had real times making. they've had a real times pay making. they've had a real times pay cut . so can't understand pay cut. so i can't understand it because of that. because the political class, including keir starmer . political class, including keir starmer. keir starmer spent that on a lockdown was interesting is what you could the tories have demonstrated poor leadership listlessness let's accept that premise. but what labour party's demonstrated poorer leadership because it's imported all of that and have no response now. so you you'd be changing to nothing. christine fox well the electorate have a very, very short memory and people come the next election and not going to remember that. keir starmer longer, further and harder on the lockdown. they're simply not
3:17 am
on strikes are political on the strikes are political strikes large they really strikes by and large they really are want bring down the are they want to bring down the government and it's not fair it's going to get worse and worse early next year. worse and come early next year. we have general strike on we will have a general strike on our cheer everybody, our just to cheer everybody, christine. mean . christine christine. but i mean. christine bailey. oh that we're see the bassoon bayley christine tallis and amy nicholl, thank you so much. right. okay still to come, is the hope, the common sense policing after they met? look at the of investigating jeremy the idea of investigating jeremy clark's meghan markle clark's ambition. meghan markle also media sensation and also, social media sensation and self—professed chief gammon slater joins me to discuss at 935. but first, is king charles right ? the cup prize coronation right? the cup prize coronation dunng right? the cup prize coronation during a cost of living crisis , during a cost of living crisis, historian david starkey goes head to head with republic's graham smith in the clash. let me know what you think on this one email us at. dunn at gbnews.uk or tweet using the handle at gb news. there's also a up at the moment you can vote on now. the results after the .
3:21 am
3:22 am
in the midst of a cost of living crisis . despite claims of the crisis. despite claims of the sovereign's initial, crisis. despite claims of the sovereign's initial , the palace sovereign's initial, the palace and government have reportedly agreed embrace full blown pomp pageantry. on may the sixth in a bid to showcase britain having taken note of the huge international in the commemorations for queen elizabeth ii after a death in september while the king's coronation is expected to be shorter and have attendees in his mother's 70 years ago. the only elements expected to be axed those deemed to be outdated cumbersome meaning we will all have a celebration fit for britain. but is this the most sensible politically for the role ? family already in a bit of role? family already in a bit of a mess on night when regular brits are having to tighten their belts . i want say if you their belts. i want say if you think king charles is right to have a cut price you know pound shop coronation joy of course
3:23 am
live in crisis send me your thoughts on dan at gbnews.uk or them to me at gb news. and while you're there, go vote in aspects of poll are bringing those results very shortly by the way but first to help you make up your mind , let me bring in your mind, let me bring in historian david starkey and graham smith, chief executive of anti—monarchy group public republic. right. get evening, gentlemen. thank you so much for joining me. okay right. okay. so the coronation initially it was going to be a prize job and we were all going to be fine that's a good thing. and now going to be all the pomp and ceremony. so, i mean, you know , at david so, i mean, you know, at david starkey this is surely going to be good for the countries and it's promoting the reason of these were promoting job it's marvellous country come and visit is a good idea yes full stop and come on dawn a price coronation do you know what a new york barrister calls a
3:24 am
espresso? because a why bother? why bother with a cut price? coroner the problem is and i'm very fond of grimm. he's a sweet, nice man. but of course, he doesn't understand britain and republicans don't. the fundamental thing is we need ceremony , as somebody who's ceremony, as somebody who's great festival forgot to celebrate jesus said man does not live by bread . you want not live by bread. you want things that bring you together collectively is all well and good to talk about what it will do for britain abroad . good to talk about what it will do for britain abroad. i'm much more concerned about what it will do for britain . that's what will do for britain. that's what the queen's death. what the extra ordinary, that extraordinary procession that progressed through the country of king charles did. we desperately need bringing together we need bringing together we need bringing together . we need together we need bringing together. we need bringing out of the dumps in exactly the same way that we did back in 1953. i was a boy. then i saw the
3:25 am
coronation the first time i'd seen television were emerging from the dark gloom of a labour government that is rationing six years beyond the war. we wanted something different . we wanted something different. we wanted to be together . we wanted to to be together. we wanted to celebrate. we wanted to belong. that his right to go to graham surely david's got a point. i mean, it's tough at the moment. yes, it's tough financially. but, you know, if cheer us up, it's a bit of colour , a bit of it's a bit of colour, a bit of light relief . and amongst all light relief. and amongst all the doom and gloom surely we can allow ourselves one day of celebrating . but no, i think celebrating. but no, i think that the problem with staunch royalist david is that they don't understand and they think then they patronised britain by suggesting that we need to bend the knee this one very ordinary family . we let's put a few family. we let's put a few things in context. firstly, charles is already king. he doesn't need a coronation at all. so i would agree the
3:26 am
comment, you know, why bother ? comment, you know, why bother? why bother? we don't need it at all. he's already king. it makes constitutional or political . and constitutional or political. and what it will do is, i think, backfire . i think that it will backfire. i think that it will certainly a focal point for republican and we'll be protesting down there on the day and in the lead up to it, it will be a slap in the to . face will be a slap in the to. face millions of people in this country who are struggling to put food the table, who are struggling to pay their rent, who are struggling to cope with where the interest rates are going up. and prince charles. so i think, charles, i'm also getting used to that. king charles is constantly putting his hands into the taxpayer's pocket and it has to stop. and there's absolutely no reason for us to be throwing tens of millions of pounds on a big look at me to offer charles when he is already king. we need to actually guarantee electricity
3:27 am
so the public money has when an american president when an american president when an american president when an american president is elected, he is elected . there is still an he is elected. there is still an enormous ceremony. there is such exactly . president macron, exactly. president macron, president macron in france is now actually being accused of imitate the kings of england . imitate the kings of england. france, because he's going of his . will to just to stop his. will to just to stop imagining that life is simply reasonable. paul graham imagines that life is just about that. it's boring , that it's dull. it's boring, that it's dull. he's typical purist. the last time . we they simply they hate time. we they simply they hate each other. they hate somehow they hate colour . they do not they hate colour. they do not provide this great idea. you just you just sort of implied that if we did go ahead with the coronation, that was a bit sort of like pomp and ceremony that
3:28 am
people would be so unhappy that be rioting on the street. some people be campaigning along the route , don't off with route to, i don't know, off with their heads , that type thing. their heads, that type of thing. nothing said there'll be nothing i said there'll be protests and there will be protests and there will be protest because i'm organising them of them and there be plenty of other people using negative publicity. usually if you look at the other big events, i mean the they're portrayed in the media, you would think the whole country is interested. they're not in the of the jubilee. 14% said that they were definitely going to be taking an interest. most people were not interested. same true ten years ago with same was true ten years ago with the jubilee. same true as in 2011. same thing with the 2018, when now most people are not that bothered by the royal family in the big that come on when lost the queen. i think the whole family that we whole family felt that surely we were all interested if we did care , how can know? within care, how can you know? within days were starting to complain about the saturation coverage. you know, was excessive it you know, it was excessive it was also disgraceful in terms of broadcasters who didn't take
3:29 am
moment to reflect very odd situation that this man very ordinary quickly if a go individual just walked into the job a head of state in a modern democracy no sort of discussion about whether not he's qualified. no discussion about or not. he has any legitimate right. that job. his mum had it. therefore he walks into it and there was no i mean there's something like 27% in a poll at the beginning of the year that is consistent, you know, about a quarter of the population want the monarchy abolished , 15% on the monarchy abolished, 15% on top of that i in don't know ten which is an increase in that support for the monarchy has dropped from 75 to 60% and none of that is reflected in the way these things are covered. i mean, at the moment republicans are outpolling political party in the country for labour, and yet none of that discussion gets included . this kind of coverage included. this kind of coverage and so people are left with the impression that the country is celebrating these big events or not. it's a good thing on gb
3:30 am
news because we give everyone the option to have an opinion. david, coming back to you mean surely this will i mean, i agree , he says, but surely it will raise more questions about the trouble with andrew and harry. do want really to open all those again, those wounds ? i don't . it again, those wounds? i don't. it will. i mean, i think that again we've had graham lecturing his own opinion andrew and meghan and harry the absolute now of pubuc and harry the absolute now of public consciousness people simply care. i think do care about the king. they care about the monarchy and what of course graham who is actually profoundly ignorant about our history as well as the state of pubuc history as well as the state of public opinion, we a republic, but we're a crown republic. and even not say i mean, that is bottom doing stuff is it. that is so much that we to respect as
3:31 am
our head of state liz and boris johnson and those before them is this is the only because in europe they are pleased . let me europe they are pleased. let me finish are the most democrat of constitutional monarchies it works we produced a biden we produced what was worse the orange man before . and if we had orange man before. and if we had as we showed with trust, as we showed with boris, we get rid of them quickly. the central figure of our nation. the thing by way, which is why almost illiteracy. they all me them the crown that swears allegiance to something above beyond politics above beyond the mere ebb and flow of opinion . the thing that touches opinion. the thing that touches us touches our history , that us touches our history, that matters, and leaves little little light . who speaks ? i saw
3:32 am
little light. who speaks? i saw you go. are you really any good going? iceland has a history. ireland has a history. finland has a history. the republics have histories . america has a have histories. america has a history. france has a history they don't forget about these things because up the things because have given up the idea of looking up to some really tedious derby people. american has a america of the remaining past of these idealise men . let me finish. not only the men. let me finish. not only the house of windsor towns is completely uninspiring, dull. you know, he's got no qualification . the job. no one qualification. the job. no one has voted for him and. if there was a free and fair election in he was a candidate, he wouldn't dare stand. and if he did, he would lose. and then sadly and the that he is therefore the fact that he is therefore a king despite the fact he would lose lose should be the reason why we get rid of the monarchy. but there's a whole lot of other reasons, abuse reasons, like the abuse of pubuc reasons, like the abuse of public money, the secrecy public money, like the secrecy lately, interfering in lately, the interfering in politics doors. politics behind closed doors. this institution this is a rotten institution that deserve to exist
3:33 am
that does not deserve to exist and. shouldn't only we need and. we shouldn't only we need to have a meeting in the glory of a house of lords that appoints tom watson with the labour party, which i'm sure know it could go to london. that on this sense, poppy, the blame is no voice. i know it's difficult it's just thank you. thank you thank you so much okay well that is called clash because it's a clash . that was because it's a clash. that was historian david starkey and graham smith, the chief executive of group. you might have spotted that bit. thank you both so much forjoining tonight. great fun to listen to both of you and very fiery a great clash. right so who do you agree with? is king charles, right? we get to cut price coronation during and cost living crisis. are you going to join the riots on the street as organised. oh come on twitter. the bigger the event the more it will pump into the british economy . of course he should be economy. of course he should be big. meanwhile richard on twitter says he now soon after

hello and welcome back. now the furious backlash surrounding jeremy clarkson's meghan markle article weekend has reached a new level of hysteria with demands for the police to get involved. the police. in his controversial column the sun the who was a millionaire who said he hated the duchess on a cellular level and was dreaming of the day when the royal was made to parade naked as the pubuc made to parade naked as the public pelted her with excrement. not content with rallying for him to lose his job and livelihood . some outraged and livelihood. some outraged readers are calling for a hate probe into the incident an idea which is thankfully been nipped in the bud by police commissioner sir mark. i think there's a line to be drawn , there's a line to be drawn, nick. it's not for the police to . get involved in anything that's about something. is it moral? is it proper? is it offensive ? the legal are only offensive? the legal are only crossed when generally when things are said that are intended or like to stir or
3:40 am
incite violence. but i don't think this is one of those cases. but of course, we'll keep a close on it . self—possessed, a close on it. self—possessed, a gammon. jane slater joins a close on it. self—possessed, a gammon. jane slaterjoins me now gammon. jane slater joins me now to tackle this one. june evening, thank you so much for joining me this afternoon. it's evening even . is there hope for evening even. is there hope for the police i mean i'm actually going to get to i don't know nicking crooks after this. what do you reckon ? well it's do you reckon? well it's certainly a breath of fresh air after what we have with cressida dick. the only thing that got with her was a certain. unfortunately, we've been victims of , been afraid to say victims of, been afraid to say what we think . anybody who what we think. anybody who speaks the mind completely is always going to be in trouble. but clark's and then he's asking him to tone it down is a bit like asking pound to mind dare not to us so much michael he's not to us so much michael he's not going to do that. he's going to be jeremy clarkson. it's what he does is outlandish as far as i can, even goes ridiculous is not not done his job is to his
3:41 am
job because as you know, don, you work publishing you live up to get this past an editor or a subeditor and someone to have said great column and published it. that's what happened to katie. passed to katie. she got it passed to editors . and then when it went editors. and then when it went out , there was this campaign to out, there was this campaign to get a council was cancelled. it's happening now with clarkson, but fortunately in this era we've got the trailblazers , the front of the trailblazers, the front of the helm. gb news, who have honest opinion from both sides of the fence. then we've got twitter itself up and. we've got this new police chief , itself up and. we've got this new police chief, mark itself up and. we've got this new police chief , mark rowley, new police chief, mark rowley, who ? well, i mean , he's right. who? well, i mean, he's right. the police there to make sure we don't break a law, we don't rob people mob people, stab people. and if sadiq khan was as bothered about london, a knife crime and acid attacks as he was 30 tweets, we've probably live in a safer this guy is a breath of fresh air and clarkson just
3:42 am
leave him back on result let him his column get on with his life . i'm no fan of the position she's something this and i think we can agree that what he said when beyond the pal it's the job of a columnist to get the column and your publication talked about and what does everyone been talking about ever. well you know the thing i have problems with as well, joan, is you've actually had mp is one their own scottish snp who who actually wrote to tv company saying don't have clerks on that tv again but do all gives an mp the right to dictate us plebs who and what can watch on tv what why are they going with this one? well, instead of calling the mps this should be called pms public because they're now seem to involve themselves in every aspect of our lives , see themselves as our lives, see themselves as much greater , more important much greater, more important figures than they are. they're there to represent us . they're there to represent us. they're not there to give their opinion . they're there to represent us
3:43 am
. and they forget that it's the people who is sovereign. we have hand to parliament for them hand over to parliament for them to behave properly and snp is lucky to even have a seat that in itself the way was elected you got basically nigel farage is part of ukip 4 million votes. i'm gonna say and scotland got 54 seats. there's 53 of them shouldn't be there as far as i'm concerned. we need a minister run scotland and these are the people, they're impostors to me because of the way the system is set up, 5 million pigs, 54 seats and the rest of is up to put up with this. i think if i haven't got the message you know they're elected to sort like try and run the country not send so what we read and what we what we watch on our tv's obviously clarkson broke no criminal so why would the police get . the other thing the police get. the other thing i wanted to ask you on matter juneis i wanted to ask you on matter june is the you know , sort of june is the you know, sort of like, you know, women have had
3:44 am
police turning obviously more behind at their doors to behind it up at their doors to question them about views question them about their views on being woman after said on being woman after they said bit of a dirty word about maybe the transgender community. so do you think that you know hopefully you know a new met face will put a stop to that one as well ? well, it's moving in as well? well, it's moving in the right . and we've got a lot the right. and we've got a lot of people to thank fox and harry miller from the butler project, which is a spin off, as it were, from the reclaim party. they've got this ball rolling because they've challenged the colleges in not only the warm and harry world before met laurence, he took up to call risk in his own house. he believed in the principle of challenging that law and this is somehow an gb news at the forefront. this is trailblazer is in on free speech. this hour. i wouldn't be sat here dom. i'm . not so we've sat here dom. i'm. not so we've got to look at all these little
3:45 am
movements that are going on. you've got the butler project with laurence. you've got gb news, got twitter up news, you've got twitter up reinstating that were reinstating dr. that were cancelled and now you've got a chief of police . sounds like one chief of police. sounds like one exact know. absolutely and i'll tell you what, i don't think my going to be that upset either, jane, because doing what she's put on earth to do, get everybody talking about her no matter isn't it absolutely matter what, isn't it absolutely making it . jane making money out of it. jane slater, thank you so much for joining tonight. a voice of joining us tonight. a voice of common, i really to common, as usual. i really to have you with us tonight right off all unions at straws by claiming government sexism is government sexism prolonging action. i'll debate that with my superstar panel and bring you the first of tomorrow's papers in the media buzz at ten. but first is solar province has illegal migrants on disused cruise ships a sensible compromise for communities being overrun or is it still too appealing an option keeping on
3:49 am
next hello. welcome back . now gb news hello. welcome back. now gb news has nana akua is tonight's outsider . has nana akua is tonight's outsider. today today 42 albanians including 32 convicted criminals was successfully deported to their home country in a big win for the government's doing that many that wasn't. however over hundred thousand illegal migrants still need emergency accommodation and the home office is now suggesting housing them on cruise ships. quizzed in them on cruise ships. quizzed in the justice and home affairs committee home secretary as well refused to deny that were afoot to house a asylum seekers on luxury vessels as well as the houday luxury vessels as well as the holiday parks and so on surplus military sites that you're looking at. there was mention of
3:50 am
cruise ships. i think it would be helpful just to know whether thatis be helpful just to know whether that is on your ships. disused ships are on your list when you talk about vessels . i would just talk about vessels. i would just say and all i can say, we are in discussions with a wide variety providers that . everything is providers that. everything is still on the table and. nothing is excluded . thank you. now this is excluded. thank you. now this would help to ease the crippling pressure on many british towns and cities to house a wave of migrants on our shores . but nana migrants on our shores. but nana , lovely and looking gorgeous . , lovely and looking gorgeous. welcome at this evening. good to talk to you. but nana the people coming from the terrible conditions of calais really need or deserve the luxury of a cruise or just crossing the channel remain an appealing opfion channel remain an appealing option under this . i mean, it's option under this. i mean, it's a cruise ship. my mum goes on cruises. she loves cruises. is this some good idea? well you know, i think that while i was watching my show about three or
3:51 am
four ago, we actually four weeks ago, we actually posed question to our posed that question to our viewers listeners . and viewers and listeners. and it turns that not a bad to turns out that it's not a bad to look. don't see what's with it look. i don't see what's with it at all. it's a brilliant idea. first of all, it would be a form of offshore processing, which is something have been something people have been arguing fighting, being on arguing for fighting, being on somebody land . so, for somebody else's land. so, for example, france would have to negotiate them. could negotiate them. you could actually some from you know, actually to some from you know, from the channel to them. so it's actually in the uk. so there's no way they can abscond and run away because that is happening. whether we like it or not, saying that what is not, we're saying that what is 45,000? so the right this year that probably tip of a that is probably tip of a massive iceberg . and what are massive iceberg. and what are our options? where offering housing them in barracks and places like that and literally disturbing the local ecosystem and the populations that are there. and, you know, the people are happy with this. so think it's a brilliant idea . what's it's a brilliant idea. what's wrong with cruise? well i mean, it's also said that you know, the asylum system costs are set to spike . to £3.5 billion next
3:52 am
to spike. to £3.5 billion next yeah to spike. to £3.5 billion next year. now can you ever imagine in a dreams it would ever be discussing ? i mean, you know, discussing? i mean, you know, the current cost discussing? i mean, you know, the current cos t £7 million a the current cost £7 million a day in hotels . can you imagine day in hotels. can you imagine in your wildest dreams it would ever be talking about this money like it was like, oh, it doesn't matter . and the ones matter. yeah. and we're the ones the money instead of paying for this right ? the money instead of paying for this right? so we're going to have to stop this. in the meantime , our troops military meantime, our troops at military who in some of the army barracks are living in substandard accommodations. out some accommodations. turns out some of those people managing that accommodation somewhat. well, i mean, i'm going to say it's obviously we know that some those people who are looking after that accommodation don't appear money in appear to be putting money in the places. certainly the right places. certainly getting living in mouldy getting better living in mouldy accommodation . and it's just you accommodation. and it's just you would for hotels, you would pay a cruise ship. these people should go on these things. we can process and if need be, send them exactly back where they come from, back to france, which is not that bad or perhaps to
3:53 am
another destination. so but do you think no matter what what answer suella comes up with, she will always be have the woke ? will always be have the woke? it's the sort of like, you know, the human lawyers. and you can't do that. you can't that about without coming with an alternative. well, i know it's ridiculous. and you know what the thing is, those people never have that accommodation of migrants living next door to them . more than happy to talk them. more than happy to talk about but as soon it happens about it. but as soon it happens in their own place, they wouldn't happy with a lot of those these. what those left. these. okay, what are the near you or are you how's the near you or what make? bedroom three. what do you make? bedroom three. if think there's if you think there's such a terrible idea putting someone terrible idea of putting someone on i mean, you would on a cruise, i mean, you would pay on a cruise, i mean, you would pay to do this, pay to go on a cruise ship. you pay to have a hotel room. is absurd that we hotel room. it is absurd that we cannot people these cannot put people up in these places without people trying to say human say it's against the human rights stay in a cruise ship rights to stay in a cruise ship or to stay . and i said, it's or to stay. and i said, it's time that we stop working against i just don't against ourselves. i just don't get why we're doing when the
3:54 am
reality is we cannot afford it and our own people , people in and our own people, people in this country are suffering . this country are suffering. armed forces , people on the armed forces, people on the streets. you haven't got decent accommodation. even a lot of the council properties, so on and so forth. people are getting ill because of mould. we should be investing in this country and for those who come here , there for those who come here, there should be proper, proper process. and i'd say nothing wrong with a lot of cruise ships moored outside this country where we can assess whether these people are legitimate if they're not, send them back. yeah. and as you say so rightly, nana. yeah. and as you say so rightly, nana . and we have people, you nana. and we have people, you know, that poor little who died recently because of the awful conditions he was living in. and we people this winter, as we have people this winter, as we have people this winter, as we who can't afford to we know who who can't afford to put their heating yet their put their heating and yet their taxes are going to pay for people currently in hotels getting three meals a day, being looked after while they are suffering. i think this is the problem here that , you know, problem here that, you know, even sort of like, you know, relative only people who would
3:55 am
consider themselves left wing are i have an with are going. i have an issue with this. how this be right? this. how can this be right? well, hear saying like, well, i hear people saying like, oh, the migrants only get oh, but the migrants only get £30 a week or whatever it is. some lik e £30 a week once all some like £30 a week once all your bills have been paid, once your bills have been paid, once your food is already on the table . a of people are in table. a lot of people are in minus money the fact that you've actually got all of that, any any medical needs that require will looked after by nhs. will be looked after by our nhs. so you're actually in not a bad position comparison to most people . some people are in people. some people are in overdrawn . they're taking loans overdrawn. they're taking loans to afford live, trying to pay their bills. you can't get anywhere . and that waiting list anywhere. and that waiting list everyone's going on strike for goodness. everyone's going on strike for goodness . we cannot afford . so goodness. we cannot afford. so we have to do something and swallow it well and, go to those cruise ships. i think there's nothing wrong with it. as long as they're in good order , which as they're in good order, which most of them will be, then i just. i just don't see what the objection could be to that at all. it has been has been all. and it has been has been suggested before us. and that was the former boss of
3:56 am
was around the former boss of board suggested this board force who suggested this idea few years ago. now idea a good few years ago. now and that was poo poo and and again, that was poo poo and it wasn't, you know, human rights, etc. etc. but now we, as you know, that horrific incident the other week where we had people drowning in the channel you know, all the time, we keep saying human rights, we can't do this. do we can't solve this. we do that. we can't solve that problem. and people are still dying. people are still crossing channel and nobody crossing the channel and nobody nana with nana is coming up with an alternative answer. that's alternative answer. well, that's right. incidentally, we're taking of the migrants taking on more of the migrants than the other countries . so the than the other countries. so the others the know that others so the migrants know that if they've been rejected, they can to us. and what we are can come to us. and what we are drawing them in with these wonderful five star wonderful hotels five star hotels, castles mean is this a joke? no. you've come to somebody else's country . you try somebody else's country. you try that in africa. you turn up, look up and say, nick garner and see if anyone's going sell this poor person. you just go on the street, to your street, you'll have to make your own way. why why do you why own way. so why why do you why do you think even other countries in europe now to get away i mean, i think in away with i mean, i think in
3:57 am
poland build a, you know, poland they build a, you know, a great big fence and no one says, oh, human rights, you can't that. yet as as we even that. and yet as soon as we even suggest up in a cruise suggest putting up in a cruise ship, by the way, it's not torture chamber in a cruise ship. like, oh, god, ship. it's like, oh, my god, joe, racist country. it's against rights. dare you? against rights. how dare you? why the ones taking stock why are we the ones taking stock all well, you've got all the time. well, you've got to yourself actually to ask yourself who is actually it? fighting ourselves . it? we're fighting ourselves. it's human rights it's our own human rights lawyers are happily making lawyers who are happily making a nice little that there's got to be a money trail here. there's a there's an industry in allowing these people to. and what will these people to. and what will these people to. and what will these people be these people do? they'll be completely discombobulated. all human will have human rights lawyers will have nothing left. and somewhere there is a trail of trash and somebody somewhere is making a bit of money organising . all of bit of money organising. all of this. and i mean, i would even go far as to say the smugglers, those who are actually smuggling people are probably involved in a of human activity as a lot of this human activity as well. probably in hock well. they're probably in hock with of people . i with some of these people. i mean, have no proof this, mean, i have no proof of this, but there's got to be some some sort of hijinks somewhere
3:58 am
because collusion, because, frankly , we are fighting frankly, we are fighting ourselves and then course, we've got the you paying courts of human rights, which seems to only want to work against us . only want to work against us. but then other eu countries seem to be able to bypass it. so i don't really understand why we're making it so difficult for us right now. no, thank so much for us. was gb news forjoining us. that was gb news on acquits and thank you on that acquits and i thank you very debate and top very much. more debate and top guests coming up right after this .

of not being treated . meanwhile, of not being treated. meanwhile, earlier today , highways workers earlier today, highways workers began strike in london and the south—east as of motorists started their christmas angry, one of these people tried some holiday. it comes as a trade union. congress general secretary baroness o'grady sent sensationally claimed mount government ministers will refusing to meet with public sector unions because many of them are led by women. i'm struggling with this one, she told the telegraph's hope. there was a suspicion that a sexist bias amongst government ministers was stopping them from entering face to face talks . entering face to face talks. lady o'grady, 69, says it's a good look to say that you won't even speak to women leaders. although i know she said that because it is probably leading unions representing predominantly women . so, i mean predominantly women. so, i mean , i'm struggling with this one, i must admit of all the excuses, i must admit of all the excuses, i think someone could come up with the fact that we're not negotiating because you're women
4:08 am
just aren't going to come to the only boy on the panel to identify you. a boy as a boy . i identify you. a boy as a boy. i mean, what what is what is going on here? i mean, all the government being sexist by not talking to the unions, all maybe other things are going on. it deeper what it firstly shows ways she's absolutely shameless. i will say anything because she has had meetings back to the health that she has met the unions and spoken it through a. second, because she needs to demonstrate that a different offer has been made to male union which simply union leaders, which simply isn't nobody isn't true. and thirdly, nobody said . the words offered at her. said. the words offered at her. nobody anything like those words. what she's doing, she's trying to rile people up and give them something hold on to that isn't true. and what really signifies the real here is these strikes are political. they're based on getting rid of the government and asking for unrealistic pay demands. government and asking for unrealistic pay demands . they're unrealistic pay demands. they're making sure that people don't speak to them so that they could play speak to them so that they could play what the government. i do
4:09 am
think they'll get to point where is it the unions versus the government. it's a huge versus the public. however i don't think claims are true think the claims are true unfounded . it really is. well unfounded. it really is. well sexist bias within the tory party is not not a new idea, but they are the of the events of three female pundits. they are, but i'm counting riddled with sexual harassment claims as the labour party alec allegation . labour party alec allegation. i'm just saying i'm legislation is where might have come to this conclusion from. but this the party that had to suspend mp for watching in the house of commons this year. he was looking at it as a tractor, like someone who has a tractor be it was a very interesting tractor . but yeah, interesting tractor. but yeah, there's an atmosphere in parliament which has been quoted by a former tory mp on to come on sex meddling reasons. but she's completely unfounded.
4:10 am
that's what i'm saying. it's it is unfounded . she's introduced is unfounded. she's introduced no evidence . she says, first of no evidence. she says, first of all, she it was a suspicion that there's a sexist bias amongst. government ministers. she's produced no evidence. and then she also says, quote it's not a good look to say that you won't even speak to women leaders who has said that they won't speak to women leaders? no but she is putting all this in. she says, you know, why put why leave that suspicion in people's. you know, why put why leave that suspicion in people's . she has suspicion in people's. she has put the suspicion with no evidence what so awful they generate it it's all it is it is a personality assassination of the government's personality. that's what she's trying to put it if you're already angry if you believe this, you would see those heads off. that's how deliberate deliberate starts. and what she what should do actually. she's taking you a fool to put this out there and suggest that somebody else did. it is taking people for a fool . it is taking people for a fool. it is taking people for a fool. i a backlash. i hope there's a backlash. i mean, mick lynch saying mean, mick lynch also saying they're talk to. they're not willing to talk to.
4:11 am
it's not a girl. it's definitely not a girl. well, ultimately, that happened. did evidence that round the table negotiated in rough table and negotiated in rough and think that's more the and i think that's more the problem the allegations of problem but the allegations of sexism i don't think are wild as to maybe the sexism all over the place amy doesn't it's not just confined to the conservatives it doesn't make it right. it's all over parliament, all over industry. it's actually in the media. it's why you that point you want silence . why you bring you want silence. why you bring that point? i want to on to the second story today on the topic of gender equality cambridge university philosopher john marathon has raised eyebrows by, claiming the reputation is feeling academic is tainted by positive discrimination . he's positive discrimination. he's actually said that women at universities cannot be sure they've got their own merit because many institutions shoehorned female candidates into shortlists just to fill quotas . so i into shortlists just to fill quotas. so i mean, it's a post of discrimination. again but you know, it's to the national i
4:12 am
really hate to think that got that job because of a pair of okay not even impressive boobs but i mean i really want to think that i got there on merit and good journalism. well you did? because in those days, i. sorry. not implying it was long ago, but in those days in 1872 it had quilp ends. in those days you would have got the job on merit just because. because the move to push women regardless wasn't there . but do you think wasn't there. but do you think it a point that in saying this that women in universities really might have got there? because we're taking boxes to filling quotas a lot of filling quotas. quite a lot of members of parliament female of parliament there of parliament got there because of taking mean were taking boxes mean who who were the they were on all female the mp they were on all female shortlists. i mean, step forward, reign of one forward, ending the reign of one queen rayner stella queen angela rayner stella creasy, phillips. were creasy, jess phillips. they were all on all women's shortlists. i'm not saying that they're not brilliant, etcetera. you brilliant, etcetera. but you have wonder . brilliant, etcetera. but you have wonder. if brilliant, etcetera. but you have wonder . if they brilliant, etcetera. but you have wonder. if they would have to wonder. if they would have to wonder. if they would have got their men up against them. what's incredible about that, those apps can't that, betty, those apps can't tell it so you are tell you what it is. so you are going to go with the shortlist.
4:13 am
look, there's a pressure here because black people have suffered for years the idea that you're here because you're black you're here because you're black you're just of failure. you're just part of failure. will will over. do you still supplies? i mean, you know, you obviously black. i mean, do you worry that maybe you get jobs? you get you know, you get hired for comment shows like this because of the colour of your skin rather than the debate you can bring to it. alison it's in the background because people said to i remember within this election southern states be, election the southern states be, well, got far well, you already got this far because, you're black. so because, you're black. so, so and grandmother, black and my grandmother, any black person program person watching this program will these words. you will have heard these words. you have work as hard. and this have to work as hard. and this whole idea of positive discrimination. and think discrimination. and i think words be at words need to be looked at a plays that and it's a real plays into that and it's a real because it that you're because it means that you're constantly trying to prove your worth but the thing is with with this particular story about women academia this isn't really the case here because in academia women are wildly and there just aren't the numbers
4:14 am
that are male academics and discrimination. since 2010 it's been illegal and actually talking about positive action so that's attracting certain types of people characteristics that aren't necessarily making up industry, workforce , group and industry, workforce, group and trying to attract them into the into the public. but so what you're saying is not a bad thing , though. what you're saying is positive action is great news. i've always said to that if you want to get black people or whatever it be covered, find whatever it is be covered, find those people. i believe the talent is this professor was talking about a very scary, pervasive atmosphere. he was talking about and he was talking about something imaginary, basically . that is about something imaginary, basically. that is this is going on. isn't the situation in what we're talking about imaginary we talk about meghan . i mean of as talk about meghan. i mean of as meghan back as he shrugged off attacks on priti patel and knowledge raj are called out on the hypocrisy is it okay to be
4:15 am

4:20 am
that allows and child abusers to change caused huge upset. but in a bid to block it, it was dramatically slapped down by just one vote. with first minister nicholas sturgeon to allow sex offenders transition under the bill, scottish conservative leader douglas ross confronted sturgeon in the chamber. the first minister's own vote means a man standing trial for rape can claim that woman and forced a victim to call them. she why did the first minister vote for this this ? in minister vote for this this? in a potentially huge twist tonight , the secretary of state for scotland, alister jack, said he scotland, alisterjack, said he was willing to consider a blocking the bill of a huge about women's safety . blocking the bill of a huge about women's safety. i'm absolutely thrilled now to welcome sharron davies, a proper heroine of sharron . welcome to heroine of sharron. welcome to the show. thank you so much for joining. this is a real passion . yours you are very vocal, very brave talking about the rights
4:21 am
of women when seems to be almost a crime. these days. sharron is this a dark new development in the battle for women's ? i mean, the battle for women's? i mean, you must be as horrified . most you must be as horrified. most women all hearing what's going on in scotland. yeah and it's lovely be here as well speaking to you. it's not like got all sponsored up because one day christmas . yes. i mean it's christmas. yes. i mean it's a really, really day. it's a dark day for women and children in really, really day. it's a dark scotland you know, this isn't about gender dysphoria or gender dysphoria , which is, you know, dysphoria, which is, you know, receive a medical diagnosis. this is about so potential sex offenders, which know exists. and we know that they will use any loopholes they possibly can, because history shows us that are now able to identify as females and to go to faces, whether that's women's changing rooms, whether that's local swimming pool, where they can change next. young girls, you know, whether that's women's toilets. so this isn't about, you know, having having an issue
4:22 am
with anyone that has genuine gender dysphoria. know, this gender dysphoria. you know, this is which really is something which is really and we need support people that we need to support people that are transgender . however, this are transgender. however, this is about self—harm and the loophole, will be will be loophole, which will be will be used by princes but only because basically what this means is that living in scotland now under the rules if you're above age of 18 living is a chosen gender for three months without any diagnosis , any minute , any any diagnosis, any minute, any medication. you know, people have the misconception and obviously malaria expertise is for and it's usually sport that i'm talking about but obviously today it's this particular bill in sport. you know, people have the misconception that if someone decides to change gender you know decide that they want for the trans woman when they're biologically male but they must have some form of surgery. that is not case. you the vast is not the case. you the vast majority over 5, do not have any form of surgery whatsoever . some form of surgery whatsoever. some suppress the test if they want
4:23 am
to meet certain guidelines in sport. but many don't even do that. sport. but many don't even do that . so, you know, the that. so, you know, the biological knee, they are 100% male and sex is binary. biological knee, they are 100% male and sex is binary . you male and sex is binary. you know, there's two guidelines, a small one and a large so many one of these to reproduce and which ever sexual male or female including anyone that's dsd difference is a sexual development. you cannot change that biological sex will be in every single gene in your body, in your chromosome, in your body. and it has things body. and know it has things like bony structures, very different your is different sides of your hips is different sides of your hips is different women give different because women give birth. so know, there's lots birth. so you know, there's lots of that affect sport and of things that affect sport and performance in particular. and these changes because someone decides to recognise themselves as an implicit sex without absolutely any medical diagnosis whatsoever, three months, you, you know , so you can travel to you know, so you can travel to scotland, live a three months and suddenly come back . and you and suddenly come back. and you know, if you're a man, you're a woman. and even though you look like a you're you're basically still man , you can say legally
4:24 am
still a man, you can say legally you are woman. but this isn't just women's , right? just about women's, right? this is children's as is about children's rights as well, because well, isn't it, sean? because i mean, we on this saying it's yeah , i mean, 15 year old 60 yeah, i mean, 15 year old 60 year olds are not allowed to , year olds are not allowed to, you know, to drink. they're not allowed to vote, they're not allowed to vote, they're not allowed to vote, they're not allowed to drive by the consulate. 17. they're not allowed to go and get a tattoo. you know, it strange that they're able to make such a very, very important decision . very, very important decision. and puberty is a horrible phrase mean. i don't know about, you know, puberty for my committee was awful. you know, i was trying train, but that was a trying to train, but that was a day and was emotional roller day and it was emotional roller coaster. and it's such a difficult time for young people. there's no doubt about it. but the trans debate is , a very the trans debate is, a very contagious one. i mean, we've got schools down here. there's a school in swindon where they have twice the national average. well, that's not there's twice as many people in that particular school in swindon are transgender. it's a contagious situation as well amongst young people and they do, you know, a
4:25 am
lot of the autistic figures are going to very very high. so kids don't feel very fizzy and are sort of finding their way into this group. and then sometimes they're making very big decisions will affect them decisions which will affect them for life. and for the rest of their life. and if we give young girls testosterone, changes their testosterone, it changes their voice. changes you voice. it changes that, you know, develops hair on their know, it develops hair on their face and on their bodies, which if come onto , will not stop if they come onto, will not stop , you know, once we once said strong it's for guys it's different if they come off the oestrogen testosterone is a much stronger chemical and it tends to take over again. but with girls. if we make the changes the young and go and have double mastectomies they're putting themselves medicalised themselves in a medicalised spirit for the rest of spirit probably for the rest of their lives. that is their lives. and that is a massive decision . make a 16 massive decision. make a 16 years old, massive. i mean, as you say, we can't you know, it's the and you can throw all the kids and you can throw all this old man up and chunk. you have been very, very vocal on this, talking rights this, talking about the rights of you're doing of and that's all you're doing and about the rights. and talking about the rights. women, clear, it women, let's be clear, it doesn't you transphobic. it doesn't make you transphobic. it
4:26 am
just talking about just makes you talking about the rights, and john, if some rights, women and john, if some of the scottish mps women campaigners in scotland have been threatened with rape and death threats what sort of response do you get from people when you do talk out? do you get the sort of reaction as well oh yeah, i mean, twitter is a little bit of a cesspit, isn't it? but it is a place where people are paying attention, listening, and you can get opinions and information of my stance with support is always been that it should be about science. the proof and we've got 16 peer abuse studies , all of 16 peer abuse studies, all of the peer review studies that's ever been done , not a single one ever been done, not a single one of them claims that you can mitigate against male pupil say so 16 peer review studies of which the last one was only a few ago out of brazil. few months ago out of brazil. the biggest ever. that the biggest study ever. and that showed even at just six showed that even at just six years suppressing to you years of suppressing to you couldn't remove all of the male physical benefits puberty against somebody so asking female athletes to compete a disadvantage when we're not male athletes to do that we're , only
4:27 am
athletes to do that we're, only asking female athletes to do that. asking female athletes to do that . so we asking female athletes to do that. so we just asking female athletes to do that . so we just need to better that. so we just need to better discuss this , come up with discuss this, come up with better ways. now, believe that better ways. now, i believe that everyone be able to everyone should be able to support, anyone that's support, including anyone that's however that females however i do that females deserve fair support too. and i'm i will fight for that right. you know i went through the east german era and that affected two generations of young girls that lost their positions, their medals, their opportunities and i want to see that happen i just want to see that happen again. yeah. and it's is again. yeah. and it's it is always women tend to be always the women tend to be suffering in these situations isn't think i write isn't it. i think i write something. sense something. so in that sense it's, it's ridiculous at the moment, you know, half of the offenders are in scottish prisons i've changed that gender after they have been put behind bars . yeah. you know why is this bars. yeah. you know why is this is this all of a sudden they're going to be put into prison that they've decided they're transgender? you know, this is a massive loophole which should be allowed to be taken advantage . allowed to be taken advantage. and i think that the was rushed
4:28 am
through. i went up holyrood with friends of mine that international sports women and we were not allowed to talk to hollyrood yet they listened to two lgbt advocates and only two lgbt experts and they were men were involved well, the only people that hollyrood to that isn't a nicholas sturgeon is a woman of women's rights campaign and british olympian sharron davies. thank you so much for that. and keep fighting the good fight . rights are coming up fight. rights are coming up after the nanny state warns brits not to get drunk over christmas. good luck. former corrie star corrie star charlie lawson debates whether boozing is becoming demonised in and cancelled at 1045. but first, come meghan like jeremy clarkson and be cancelled but priti patel nigel farage are fair game so is it okay to be offensive if left with my superstar panto attempt to get to the bottom of this one? and there's more news by the front pages the way in the
4:32 am
break let's return tomorrow's news tonight in our media buzz. front pages have just been delivered right. more front pages right in front of us. the guardian leads with the developing story just discussed. number ten threatening to block the new scottish law, allowing 16 year olds to legally change gender. meanwhile, the daily mail also leads with a scottish gender vote. one particular law, controversial clause allows sex offenders and to transition, meaning victims could be forced to address them in court. under the new pronouns . meanwhile, the the new pronouns. meanwhile, the telegraph reports the killamarsh damien bendall yesterday given a whole life sentence for fatally attacking his pregnant partner , attacking his pregnant partner, her two children and another 11
4:33 am
year old girl was freed, killed on probation blunders. how many times you hear this mistakenly him as just medium risk horrific story but we will have a merry christmas is the expresses and defiant headline . that's the defiant headline. that's the times, though, isn't it. i can split the difference and you guys, the express are all where are they? we will have a merry christmas. there you go. as what we're doing we can't we got to go on a spending spree, evidently. well, good luck. that log book and a £26 billion into the economy. she looking nervously a panel because i can't afford to do that i had a christmas and nearly 28 million shoppers hitting the high street today and tomorrow. oh, god . today and tomorrow. oh, god. meanwhile, the sun leeds a showbiz exclusive that strictly pro twitter bristol is secretly dating giovanni parva police . i dating giovanni parva police. i don't even know who those people i'm terribly sorry you know do i worry ? i don't even know the worry? i don't even know the best in the media both now with
4:34 am
tonight's superstar soprano author and commentator christine hamilton, former tory candidate shaun bailey and, writer and broadcaster. amy nicole . and broadcaster. amy nicole. and here we are looking all very festive. i now we have to go jeremy clarkson because why wouldn't his controversial column the weekend where he said he a of people throwing extra men at a naked meghan markle this is a really weird fancy his tv career may be on the line when asked about the sun column earlier this week, managing director of itv studios kevin lygo called it awful and said his hosting on who wants to be a millionaire was only safe at the moment . but don't think this moment. but don't think this clarke's controversy has exposed a rancour hypocrisy of the left daily email columnist ross clarke thinks . so writing what clarke thinks. so writing what is commentators, politicians twitter warriors erupt into outrage . columnist in outrage. columnist in a conservative newspaper . the conservative newspaper. the truth is that the left has its own despicable record of making horrible remarks. some of might
4:35 am
be said to verge on incitement, violence. now jo brand's vile comments . nigel farage after two comments. nigel farage after two milkshakes thrown over him in 2019, which forced the bbc to apologise . 2019, which forced the bbc to apologise. i'm kind of thinking why with a milkshake when you could get some battery acid , could get some battery acid, right? okay then in 2020 we saw this cruel cartoon of priti patel in the guardian . yuck. as patel in the guardian. yuck. as a hindu , the image of the former a hindu, the image of the former home secretary wildly inappropriate. the paper declined to remove it also sorry . right. okay well, i'm going to start with you on this one, because you are gorgeous left wing person sitting on the sofa tonight. i mean , it does seem tonight. i mean, it does seem a bit unfair that clarkson , as bit unfair that clarkson, as vile as his comments were, i agree it's taken to task getting sacked removed from tv. where's joe literally said it's okay to throw acid in someone's face and no one really really said
4:36 am
anything . well, i'm not sure anything. well, i'm not sure that no one really said anything, though, because i think it was just one. it was a it was . and i would never it was. and i would never condone . but crucially , the bbc condone. but crucially, the bbc apologised and. i think we're still waiting for clarkson to issue proper apology because he yet and i think all the instances that ross clarke has noted, i don't think there wasn't any fuss. i think there wasn't any fuss. i think there was first about all of those remarks , gall is who she like. remarks, gall is who she like. i think she's very funny the way she said she wanted. boris johnson die when he had to, the ofcom complaints, etc. but she's presenting christmas on tv this so that does seem to be a double standard here i think that but equally there is a difference comedy and, a comedy routine and an opinion which is actually you know it's to jeremy corbyn we have to be out there. is it if that's true defence jeremy clarkson kasab is joking but but is an opinion piece and people jokes right? no, no, no . you're
4:37 am
jokes right? no, no, no. you're missing the point. so i really am pleased. jo brand , miriam am pleased. jo brand, miriam margolyes and other people have made jokes similar jokes, which i totally reject on comedy shows . jeremy clarkson's piece was a national newspaper , just the national newspaper, just the sun, a tabloid. but was it national newspaper in a jeremy clarkson column? so can that ever be called serious? but wasn't part of a comedy routine 7 wasn't part of a comedy routine ? the others were there to be funny . that's why i like funny. that's why i like headliners on gb news. they take i mean, i like to think that jeremy clarkson said , well, of jeremy clarkson said, well, of course it was. we know that. why? but the fact somebody could say something even more and it's okay because that's how haven't seen it since. think nobody said to joe brand or whatever they should lose their job they continued it was public iraq rage unless everybody gets treated to say that there's a bias and it does like well, it does look , we're going to pursue
4:38 am
does look, we're going to pursue jeremy at his job, see what happens on itv have a forward that but you can't treat jeremy 80 different of you have one day this week and the argument i agree with you because he does it because miriam goes when she made that comment about boris johnson wasn't part of a comedy routine that was her opinion she was so that was being interviewed. so that wasn't routine that was wasn't a comedy routine that was like an opinion clip. my opinion, view that jeremy opinion, my view that jeremy clarkson is entitled to say what i but what he said, i thought was deeply horrendous. he probably assumes that everybody watches game of thrones had no idea. i didn't know what he was talking about. the only thing i could think of was lady godiva. and i thought was revolting. comment. said, his comment. and as has said, his apology was not a proper apology. it had a mocking tone about it. oh, dear, i've been caught out. so he hasn't properly and i think properly apologised and i think but i say helsing, i will but i will say helsing, i will defend to my death right. to say it. he had the right to say it and they all i mean don't. galloway when margaret thatcher died, said, may she burn in hell
4:39 am
fire. well, that's pretty offensive to our greatest prime minister on a par with winston churchill . so minister on a par with winston churchill. so i think minister on a par with winston churchill . so i think they minister on a par with winston churchill. so i think they all have a right to say it. but i do think that you matters, say whatever you want, but don't be surprised when you are taken to when account. yeah when you take into account. yeah that's it is and think he that's all it is and i think he was his jo clarkson it was was doing his jo clarkson it was so shocking it was he so shocking because it was he listed three so it was listed three women so it was clearly about their femininity. it was clearly was misogynistic. you saw it as misogynistic . it's you saw it as misogynistic. it's very much said it couldn't even be mistaken any other way because women list if because was three women list if not what he really dislikes the three things he just like nobody saying what he said was correct in all agree is a horrible thing say unnecessary. i did watch game friends it actually and you understood by public four b understood it by public four b actually. yeah but the point here if jeremy is going to lose his he's now i know his job because he's now i know to please know if jeremy not the job that everybody else should lose their job would they do similar things. you've got to treat people the same said treat people the same you said unfortunately is not. so you
4:40 am
think he should lose his job he shouldn't be on tv when you when consider as a platform do consider itv as a platform do they want to be with platforming a misogynist and this isn't like to talk sense that to defend it and i think maybe this is just perfect timing but so someone else to fill role why not have a fresh air somebody that could rather than cause in saying what he said about bbc would be remarkable she should joke on the bbc is our national broadcaster and she was renting this week . yeah the only thing this week. yeah the only thing they made out point to be made when you start cancelling people cuts will everybody. i think you can't get picky if jeremy clarkson submitted outrage it's not outrage it's political activism. it's nobody's fault been used. there's a very line between what is moral reprehensible, which i think all the examples given are morally reprehensible and what is criminal. and if it's not criminal, you can't prosecute a criminal. and there was enough
4:41 am
there was an uprising when she's miriam margolyes by the way, i hate to be pedantic, but that is how she pronounces name when miriam gleeson joe brand. there was outcry amy's right there was an outcry amy's right there was an outcry amy's right there was an outcry amy's right there was an anybody who tried was an outcry. anybody who tried to their job. is the to get theirjob. this is the thing that no one asked for them to be sacked. as amy is. just because talking because i'm talking about somebody equal somebody about equal outcomes, i think cancelling a lot think said i'm cancelling a lot of what's up . the power of what's coming up. the power is in my hands as i get to know in tonight's a greatest britain on union jack i tend to and you guys will discover which heartthrob wants to erase gendered awards categories when my panel gives their nomination at 1050. but first off, the brits are well, not to get drunk over christmas due to nhs and the telegraph. celia say she's been victimised for liking a tipple is drinking becoming demonised i'll say cheers to former corrie star lawson after the .
