out in one of those and a cloak you know to let the dead put them. yeah. so health chiefs have urged and flu victims to wear them this winter and. this has sparked concern that we're going to go back to the lockdown. we're going to have a mandatory face mask. but this is just . so, you know, just advisory. so, you know, downing street is the fended the advice said, it's just advice said, look, it's just just courtesy. you know so if just a courtesy. you know so if you do have the flu, that could prevent you transmit it if you if you coughing a with if you coughing on a bus with the , you're on a bus. the flu, you're on a bus. everybody's going to do on scan again, where does it work, if anything, the orient, as we anything, on the orient, as we used to call it. but visiting hong kong some years ago and everyone them all the everyone just wear them all the time now , just like you wear time now, just like you wear underpants. yeah, almost they underpants. yeah, almost. they saw yeah, yeah . saw this coming. yeah, yeah. they to be fair with they have lived, to be fair with , a lot of bird flu is of one kind of. yes, they do seem to . kind of. yes, they do seem to. and they see the respiratory, but don't see something. but they don't see do something. i that. well, i mean i mean do that. well, there's a reason doctors be wearing masks, doing surgery for a there's reason a long time. there's a reason how to handle there's a reason

why mothers have for centuries been you been saying, you know, when you cover mouth, when you cover your mouth, when you cough, that just cough, sneezing. that was just my who we're going to my mum who and we're going to start fatwa, but but they start with, fatwa, but but they do something. the point is do something. but the point is that everyone's wearing that unless everyone's wearing it make little it doesn't really make a little difference stop difference because they stop disease getting from someone. yeah, but if i've been in a yeah, but if you i've been in a lot coaches recently the lot of coaches recently with the train and everyone has train strikes and everyone has to cough you're not allowed on the coach and whenever if you're coughing constantly into a mask that's not healthy for the basement so yeah totally and the mask becomes gooey and awful the mick lynch is trying to kill everyone. yeah you actually goes inside a mask. i mean that's just going to make you ill isn't . well you should have the masks on. you yeah, exactly. it's just going . i dropped one on going. i dropped one on a pavement for getting on a bus dunng pavement for getting on a bus during the height of this. you couldn't get on a bus without a mask on and on paper that was just covered in. bird droppings. and now to be the i had to and now to be on the i had to put on a mask. the bird flew oven put on a mask. the bird flew over. probably picked the

over. you probably picked up the wrong man as well. my fear about it is that it is divisive. you people at other on people stare at each other on pubuc people stare at each other on public transport loathing public transport with loathing in hearts if they there in their hearts if they if there is a consensus if you're all is not a consensus if you're all wearing masks and if not going with but there's 50, with masks. but if there's 50, you train it becomes you know, i don't i don't that's healthy. i always felt that the mask thing was even during lockdown when they were mandatory because you can didn't wear one. i can just i didn't wear one. i just said it was exempt because if you don't have wear one, if you don't have to wear one, it's we should do it's the system. we should do that with driving licences and trousers as and trousers as well. and yeah, you're is 1 to 1, you're right, driving is 1 to 1, except the. and you. oh yeah . except the. and you. oh yeah. yeah. everyone to one of them. to you. they went he's, he's not exempt. it's like, it's like identifying as non—binary. it's like what you see we move to like what you see we move on to another aspect of the collapse the nhs. yeah entire the wide screen version carrier i mentioned first you got the front page in the guardian of a farewell to pele which of course was is of very impressive that he's managed as a baby boomer to

not only be a hero in sport, but the rest of his life and a baby boomer who died , without having boomer who died, without having been found out, was a or anything else. he's really impressive these days continue to be held in very high esteem. totally. and if it became of it for male virility issues, which he does great. would you remember? yeah. he was the great iraq . so dysfunction. yeah he iraq. so dysfunction. yeah he was the friendly face of it. yeah. yeah, you know it's cute to be the face of that . isn't to be the face of that. isn't that an ambition of beneath the that an ambition of beneath the that couldn't collapse in reputation the main story is fact you drink it in a pub in chelsea it probably had at least as much erectile dysfunction there were you don't get famous that really do you have the figurehead for erectile dysfunction come nobody's condemned delusional prime after he denies crisis in the nhs so he's he's denying crisis which the nhs is obviously trouble the nhs has googled itself and realised it has problems . after realised it has problems. after reading a very long and article,

it was told to go to the doctor. it's about 27,000 of the crisis . yeah, 12 days. you established it this way. it's the guardian also has is telling us that number tends to be very difficult for somebody to access the nhs. what i love when they say number 10 says rather we know is you rishi. i love to get away with that. my life is going 33. b says i haven't got any cash on me. sorry oh 3033 b says you're beautiful . so, so yeah . you're beautiful. so, so yeah. basically they're he's denying there going to be a problem this year and that the nhs can cope with . this admission of money with. this admission of money which there isn't but we've talked about this obviously can over the last couple of months. it's all been building up the general consensus. i think on this team is that obviously is in trouble. but a lot of that trouble was by the probably over enthusiastic shutting down of the nation for the previous years. yeah. there's a lot of

backlog of people will. but the nhs also needs a lot of money to get it gets a lot of money so yeah but it never before is enough. never is enough never doesit enough. never is enough never does it finally is nine and ten hour waiting list for by the way i don't understand money they've got enough money to have like forms asking 73 year old man if pregnant you may not be in there. no and i think the waste a lot of their money i think if you do i can probably fix it you know what you want needs to buy the nhs now and half the staff half the managers would probably mean. i understand what you say about officer all about diversity officer and all that and it can be that sort of thing and it can be annoying. there's fairly trivial amount of this is the amount of money to this is the problem, is the cause problem, this is the root cause which will about half of which will talk about half of the budget every year is the nhs budget every year is spent on delaying death within the last 18 months of life. right the last 18 months, this controversial . well, it is, but controversial. well, it is, but that's the reality of deciding to them off. when to knock them off. yeah. when make months of misery that make of 18 months of misery that the right thing solved overnight

can have the brand new shiny can have all the brand new shiny machines have in switzerland. you've seen that? mean. how you've seen that? no mean. how do get a feeling know do you get a feeling you know i'm when i'm 90 867 you have a choice in this so you mean compose . i'm just saying we compose. i'm just saying we don't do that. we all good about this, you know that this dystopian future you know that has. so i remember watching logan from when i was a kid how is this a thing? that's the way it should be. i think. i think there's a lot of things which is waiting list and people were waiting list and people were waiting hours. why why waiting for 9 hours. why why want me giving beepers want me giving people beepers and saying go to pub or a coffee shop? for 9 hours? shop? seriously for 9 hours? why are to sit in a place are we having to sit in a place with no plugs in or anything? misery dystopian futures. leo the telegraph apparently misery dystopian futures. leo the sunakraph apparently misery dystopian futures. leo the sunakraph some'ently misery dystopian futures. leo the sunakraph some visions misery dystopian futures. leo the britain unakraph some visions misery dystopian futures. leo the britain ,nakraph some visions misery dystopian futures. leo the britain , are raph some visions misery dystopian futures. leo thebritain , are genuinely visions for britain, are genuinely chilling stories of rishi sunak to do so through plans for a radical schools shake—up that will see every pupil study maths until . they're 18, so i'm from a until. they're 18, so i'm from a i'm from a family that's happenedin i'm from a family that's happened in so not entirely surprised by this focus on maths

you know you love a bit of maths to you know conform to any racial or anything but apparently the moment less than half of 618 to 19 year olds study maths and that look that's how about 60% is it . study maths and that look that's how about 60% is it. i'll say you have to do these studies massive . they're 18. that means massive. they're 18. that means everybody go do something they can't leave school to 16. then the what they stay on and do maths and do maths . the what they stay on and do maths and do maths. i the what they stay on and do maths and do maths . i don't know maths and do maths. i don't know i'm sure, i'm sure, i'm sure it must mean that he's close to the a—levels will also do maths. it's almost this blairite assumption everyone just assumption that everyone just has to go to college now let's say on you're 18. i mean say on until you're 18. i mean it's an extraordinary it's such an extraordinary admission if you admission of defeat. now if you want school at 16 and want to leave school at 16 and crack maths is one of crack on the maths is one of those subjects. english this is actually useful in actually really useful in whatever even if you're whatever you do, even if you're an apprentice, you got count an apprentice, you got to count to three the hammer into to three meals. the hammer into three cups of yes three three cups of tea. yes three sugars, at least one in total thought. is winning gambit. thought. this is winning gambit. he's hoping folks this is his

first speech he's planning the first speech he's planning the first major policy speech . he's first major policy speech. he's going to talk about the nhs crisis, crossing, crisis, migrant crossing, inflation cost of living, recession, strikes he's recession, damaging strikes he's really going to get into. but what going to do is have what i'm going to do is have everyone maths. yeah they're everyone do maths. yeah they're 18 i was he says every opportunity had in life began with the education i was so to receive. so why don't we send every kid to winchester college? yes fine idea. i think. every kid to winchester college? yes fine idea. i think . lot in yes fine idea. i think. lot in to do with money. i didn't. my wife has cousin who teaches so doesn't she. she's on the staff at winchester college and she still can't afford to select kids. this is her. hey, not my spirit. or i would just be great. but can she just sneak off? is that right? yeah was you learn to become anyway their son. they have a lot of stories on the front page museum loans up loan deal to repatriate elgin marbles got nothing on that i thought that was going on. that's been going on forever isn't it. yeah. just being dragged, close to

dragged, showing close to repatriating marbles also repatriating the marbles also benjamin bennion netanyahu. that's a bit of a move so he's so he's the leader of israel's most right wing i don't think it was he's always the leader was he's not always the leader but yeah it's a coalition but the actual the most right wing guys a proper full on fascist got a jewish friend of mine now today who has provided some of the things he does and he cannot quite understand . they have quite understand. they have swung so hard to the right, although largely because netanyahu teamed up with the extreme right in what he's trying to get past with the charges against him. so he has teamed up with far right teamed up with the far right right to make make deal right to make make a deal because those because they will push those charges . and this is his way of charges. and this is his way of getting around it. so but getting around it. so yeah, but it's also it's a mischievous title this israeli prime, title here, this israeli prime, a mosque visit is what we're seeing. and we've as far as the jewish people can, because there is a visit the temple mount, is a visit to the temple mount, which is the most holy place for jewish people in the world, but including at the mosque, visit a little bit naughty right in the. that it's of

that is right. it's a bit of a garden and it's bit of a like garden and it's a bit of a like that. the times has a story about immigration and another about immigration and another about carry infinite about prams carry infinite number to number of migrants ready to replace albania's. that's nice, isn't it? to that isn't it? it's to know that they've got replacements already isn't it? it's to know that they"it'siot replacements already isn't it? it's to know that they"it'siot iit'sacements already isn't it? it's to know that they"it'siot iil's an ments already isn't it? it's to know that they"it'siot iil's an infinite lready , but it's an it's an infinite number. i don't want to call it an infinite number. believe an infinite number. they believe this to go on for the this is going to go on for the rest history that influence a very big number. you know can we handle an infinite number of migrants? see that. migrants? i'd like to see that. i the of hotel i mean, the number of hotel rooms already philosophical rooms is already philosophical problem. just have to move problem. and just have to move one up each time. i remember it's cool but i would have thought the same for whatever we do as far as albanian migration concerned is going to work with with any other migrant right. it's not like like going to we have specific one for albanians and for others. yeah i think one thing tried is a big thing we haven't tried is a big sign. on the southeast coast sign. so on the southeast coast just saying f off, you know that not be possible some pictures not be possible or some pictures of it's like and say, well of what it's like and say, well okay, yeah, yeah. i there's like this kind third paragraph into the story. so shortly christmas

sunak said that a deal to return albania and i read that three times before i realised there should been a comma after christmas was good name christmas that was a good name of the christmas. sunak. if i had if i a son and called him christmas , what a fantastic name christmas, what a fantastic name to have him. we won't be so pleased to see all that anyway. also, chris yea yea. yea yea yea . a bit like that island anyway. tired of parenting the other? yes the other story is a smart stroller with a lullaby mode . a stroller with a lullaby mode. a wide brush promises to clean your teeth in 10 seconds while the makers of the eevee ring want it to be recognised as a medical. encouraging medical. i think encouraging children in 10 children to clean their in 10 seconds. is that good? really it's also got a lot of other this from see as this is from the see as conference in las vegas says conference in las vegas says conference i want a self—driving pram which has revolving knives on the on the wheels by just like in ben—hur you remember. yeah so do you trust babies that do you just down the other nannies and pushy parents. yeah yeah. you know the nanny, the group member is wired into the

babies brain so it can just drive itself around. yeah elon musk will be working on that. but this isn't even expensive for pram. prams are insanely for a pram. prams are insanely excited bought the to excited just bought out the to buy a cheap but buy trade being a cheap one but it rubbish. well buying it was rubbish. well buying second—hand. that goes for it was rubbish. well buying sec

welcome back to headline as i'm your host, simon evans. and joining me tonight, we have headliners fabricio kearse and kerry marks. so let us crack on leo wednesday's mail. kerry marks. so let us crack on leo wednesday's mail . your irish leo wednesday's mail. your irish namesake has offered an olive branch to rishi sunak. i'll tell you what, i bet it wasn't a

domestically grown olive branch . no, i don't think they i don't think they grew in ireland anything. so they have rishi sunak be welcomed. the words from irish premier rt shook leo varadkar, brexit trade varadkar, the post brexit trade rules for northern ireland were a little bit too strict. i think this something everybody knew . this something everybody knew. the eu is kind of kind of punishing , the eu is kind of kind of punishing, you know, it's imposing stringent rules , imposing these stringent rules, punishing uk for the eu and punishing the uk for the eu and also they wanted to send a signal to other countries in eu, you know, if you leave the eu we can, we can make things difficult for yeah, but no, difficult for you. yeah, but no, you been years. you know, it's been seven years. things down a bit. things have come down a bit. everybody's really, really bored of bricks, sort of of bricks, all the sort of shenanigans . you know, shenanigans around it. you know, they backed off bit the uk they backed off a bit and the uk not as this pariah state not seen as this pariah state anymore . we led the anymore. we sort of led the response on ukraine. we even one in eurovision song finals. in the eurovision song finals. yeah that's it. that's great. full it was i think for i've seen the way the wind is blowing off . yeah that's it. i don't off. yeah that's it. i don't know i really of all the things that came out of brexit i have

to say the irish protocol, the, the border in the sea and all the border in the sea and all the red that was the bit just makes my head. so i never, i don't know what it's like on the ground. i don't yeah, ground. i just don't know. yeah, i know either. but i do i don't know either. but i do think this is because the think this story is because the prime minister is backtracking to report and he's talking compromises. harsh compromises. we were too harsh before i was before and saying, i was listening i've been listening to both. i've been listening to both. i've been listening sides we listening both sides now and we have find way through this have to find way through this and compared everything have to find way through this and then compared everything have to find way through this and then this mpared everything have to find way through this and then this is)ared everything have to find way through this and then this is thed everything have to find way through this and then this is the heartything else. then this is the heart warming story. think now warming story. i think now honestly, i'm loving the humanity it. yeah, it's humanity of it. yeah, it's a story of compromise nowadays. really i think we should be before we poison it with our cynicism . yeah kerry at cynicism. yeah kerry at wednesday's metro up on a gb news interview with a tory mp already, there's something a bit more serious. a mask. there was a tv news interview. this was all okay. right. so this is mp virginia crosbie who's who's saying that she needs wear a stab proof vest when visiting her constituents not because suspicious of the constituents but of course this is following

the murders of david amess and jo cox yeah she does say that even before we even have breakfast many of us receive one or two threats which i do think the answers those have breakfast a bit earlier know maybe it's because after breakfast but yeah i can see this is a i do hesitate with the idea. i think the point of wearing a stab proof a proof vest is not to tell of when you're wearing it. sure you said it's a bit of a clue to the stabbings to go this area is not the to go for a point. yeah also also telling them to wait till summer when it's too hot to wear it. maybe a bluff, maybe she's not wearing one, but she's putting a blazer. yeah so that i fully. i fully need do this. mean, i have to need do this. i mean, i have to wear a growing guard. i come off after doing comedy stage. after doing comedy on stage. we've days of so it we've had a few days of so it happens.i we've had a few days of so it happens. i mean, it is a serious issue is horrible what happened to deserve it . jamie i seem to to deserve it. jamie i seem to remember jo cox was attacked in the street. was she not? not dunng the street. was she not? not during a job, lisa? yes, yes.

so, why the have to so, i mean, why the have to i don't know. i don't want to trivialise it, but it to me, like security could be handled sensibly exclude sensibly and more like exclude weapons from the it. that would be the obvious thing yeah be the obvious thing to do. yeah we're we're a lot we're seeing we're seeing a lot more of rancorous vitriol more sort of rancorous vitriol on both sides. yeah, there's been a sort of cleveland in america . well, there's been america. well, there's been a cleaving of the left versus the right . and i think the sort of right. and i think the sort of vitriol means we're not going to we're not going to get the best politicians. the politicians we need to actually do the job. they're of underpin as they're the kind of underpin as it is. and, you know, with all this rancorous well this rancorous underarms as well arm this we need to arm yet maybe this we need to arm yet maybe this we need to arm our politicians pmqs a lot more entrenched mean, is more entrenched. i mean, this is a woman a tory she's in a woman who a tory mp, she's in her fifties and she's an her late fifties and she's an mp. and from what i can gather, fairly rural wales. i didn't recognise the name the recognise the name of the constituency, like constituency, but it's not like in hong for something. in hong cardiff for something. yeah. mean if you're feeling yeah. i mean if you're feeling under kind of under threat in that kind of place you're tory so place where you're a tory mp so that usually indicates the that usually indicates that the place prosperous place is reasonably prosperous and quhe place is reasonably prosperous and quite right. and we haven't quite right. i don't know. i mean that's a

pretty serious isn't it. if, if you were if a labour mp in i you were if you a labour mp in i don't know like bradford or something, feel something, you might feel like. oh i see where there's oh well i can see where there's a of rank. think i'd be more a lot of rank. think i'd be more at risk if you're a tory mp in bradford elected by some statistical anomaly anyway. leo wednesdays an wednesdays telegraph an unprecedented mental health concerns have concerns among the young. i have say risk of becoming say at the risk of becoming tiresomely repetitive only somebody foreseen somebody could have foreseen this yes well, more than this coming. yes well, more than a million children needed treatment for serious mental health in past health problems in the past yean health problems in the past year, according nhs figures. year, according to nhs figures. so referrals for underage teens, increased by nearly 2/5 over the past year . so this is children past year. so this is children who are suicidal, self—harming, suffering, serious depression and anxiety and those with eating disorders is obviously is lockdown, lockdown and, social media. yeah. so lockdown . we media. yeah. so lockdown. we love children. we even though they weren't really at risk from coronavirus even less risk than than other people covered people's faces were covered. so you get that sort of the fun you didn't get see people's lips, let alone snogging. yeah, yeah .

let alone snogging. yeah, yeah. four of those 17 is this is a thing like minded, young people aren't drinking any more. let the moon of young people who don't drink is around 60. whereas when i was growing up, it was around 0. so i think these young people, if they learn how sniff, glue more, learn to how sniff, glue more, drinking . yeah, absolutely. drinking. yeah, absolutely. yeah.i drinking. yeah, absolutely. yeah. i thought we've been positive messaging for a long time. know, the fact is time. we you know, the fact is healthy, beautiful . healthy, everyone's beautiful. nothing's wrong with participation by competition , participation by competition, bad and so on. and they come out and, get a reality shock of the real world. yeah, but actually beauty accounts for everything . beauty accounts for everything. those beautiful people here, you get light and you get joy . i get light and you get joy. i have a friend who has a couple of teenage daughters and he said to me that he thinks they're pretty, you they are suffering. not hospitals anything. not like hospitals or anything. but, he said part of but, you know, he said part of the that they're the problem is that they're expected embraced all of expected to have embraced all of that . the body positive that stuff. the body positive stuff, the sex, you know, sex positive stuff. but they're not really that, is it a heart? really like that, is it a heart? they traditional . you they are quite traditional. you know, want they want to know, they want they want to

like them and they want them to be to them. they be faithful to them. and they want have quite traditional relationships and relationships with them. and that's feeling that's the kind of feeling bullied out of that. and they don't bullied out of that. and they dont be don't don't want to be genderqueer, non—binary people and all the rest of it. i don't know. mean, easy to blame know. i mean, it's easy to blame social just because social media just because it wasn't day. wasn't around in our day. i think also the catastrophizing of isn't helpful. of the future isn't helpful. yeah. mean, feeling depressed yeah. i mean, feeling depressed every do some funny every time you do some funny story about a weather in story about a weather event in buffalo york. you know, this is definitely a sign that the planet is tilting off its axis. can't be easy. forward to that. i mean, we only had nuclear war to forward to . yeah, a lot to look forward to. yeah, a lot eafien to look forward to. yeah, a lot easier. kerry hopefully will be here in now a man moaning here in china now a man moaning is certainly living up to a name of a child . but this is china of a child. but this is china criticising. the country's what they call excessive covid travel, because of course, what's happened is covid is so china has been in extreme lockdown for a very long time now incubating disease. people have come out diseases are spreading fast now and countries are wary and saying we want all these restrictions before you

come in. china is reacting by saying warning of reciprocal approaches which isn't going to be much as the chinese people have trouble getting into all countries. i i think people going into china are going find they're going to be delayed as well. people do go into china. i mean i'm not being funny, but i don't think it's like a top destination. is it mainly business there's business people? so there's a there's i've been to china there's a lot i've been to china to try to transfer to other countries , right. yeah. i've countries, right. yeah. i've travelled through china doing gigs and stuff. it's a few gigs there but they are mainly for there but they are mainly for the audience. the english expat audience. i think has to face it. think china has to face it. there's been lot of diseases there's been a lot of diseases coming all seem to coming out of all this seem to be coming out. i don't get conspiracy really but from covid bird flu songs there's been the hong flu and the asian flu hong kong flu and the asian flu . so that was a very good cartoon. i know my favourite and china is this book of diseases. i think what diseases might be from yeah that might be related to . two or two of them. i don't

to. two or two of them. i don't know. so i don't think, i don't think it's racist to say there is a problem with wet markets and with the fact that well if they're we talk a lot about diet and we should no problem with wet markets that would be but of course conspiracy theory course the conspiracy theory which has gained is which has gained traction is that it isn't the wet market. well, let's start with the international vanessa the reality of where markets first know reality that the know but the reality is that the cadavers the animals from the cadavers of the animals from the from the laboratory were being sold the market that sold at the wet market that opening victor disease. okay that's a fairly they're making loads of money they're making their money selling these these dead animals produce a bit rich for china to around to like for china to turn around to like oh listen other countries, you know covid rules too know covid rules are too stringent. just had stringent. so you've just had three the most three years of the most stringent in the world. stringent rules in the world. yeah, i'm sick, know, mock yeah, i'm sick, you know, mock of the cold in the flat of disease the cold in the flat thatis of disease the cold in the flat that is two in part three we have uk prisons going woes and knife smells tumours. not all, but actually tumours and it is the british countryside. is it

to want middle class or is that a myth too. we'll see in a couple of minutes .

and welcome by the headliners leo times to kick us off . uk leo times to kick us off. uk prisons are spending billions on growing diversity. i was under the impression that the prison sector was one where minorities were actually quite well represented . oh well. within represented. oh well. within walking of diseases. represented. oh well. within walking of diseases . well, what walking of diseases. well, what can i do to top the so. yeah, but prisons have spent mean prisons is also another area of pubuc prisons is also another area of public sector. they're always being told this grotesquely underfunded by the by the horrible tories but apparently prisoners have spent more than £11 million on equality diversity and inclusion stuff in jails over the past two years, according this this investigation , some of the some

investigation, some of the some of the prisons have three staff deaung of the prisons have three staff dealing with equality, diversity and inclusion . we i mean, do we and inclusion. we i mean, do we understand is this true? i suppose facilities hate diversity on the staff among the among the screws as they used to be known or is this so? is it's among the staff and ensuring that they have the correct views so indoctrinating them with it wherever walking but also the training to prisoners i'm sure the most vital thing are dealing with somebody you know a rapist or a burglar or something . yeah or a burglar or something. yeah it's to make sure that they've got the correct feminist attitudes through a training programme with a therapist . attitudes through a training programme with a therapist. i mean, i have never spent time in a under a hashtag, but i have watched certain and some of them purport to be quite realistic. i believe the prison know the prison is one of those places where the gangs are very much along ethnic lines that that that's generally i think seen that's generally i think seen that a lot with american prisons . whether but i do . i don't know whether but i do think it's always been the ambition someone who's told ambition of someone who's told you're for

you're going to prison for x amount of time to achieve to do their without being beaten or sexually. but it's a of they sexually. but now it's a of they want to do their time whilst promoting equality diversity and inclusion which i don't really think of as much of a prison thing, but it's also the case of stanley fletcher getting involved in the you used to want to he wanted a job in library didn't he. right so i guess that was true . this would exactly was true. this would be exactly the thing he'd be these the sort of thing he'd be these aren't huge amounts of money, but same time with the but the same time with the police g £10 police force spending £10 million undercover million on undercover testing and on, he said, is coming at and so on, he said, is coming at and so on, he said, is coming at a we want for a time. we want striking for more. it's rude to be spending in don't know in that way and i don't know how. just the cost of the how. it's just the cost of the actual staff. there's also the opportunity cost lost. you know, when we deliver 1000000 hours of treatment, that's a million working hours lost to people who are attending the training who do do you i mean we've all do just do you i mean we've all been to terrible, you know, diversity training and it's all terrible. it's terrible. it's all point, it's all nonsense. kind of like all nonsense. you kind of like train mean, not it's train to i mean, it's not it's not as if they chance or anything is a hotbed of one of

us like the footage that emerged out shortly out of afghanistan shortly after. troops were pulled after. the troops were pulled out there out catastrophically and there was that of trying was that footage of women trying to mullahs about to teach afghani mullahs about french modern art stuff ? and french modern art stuff? and you've got to you've got to make that kind of message fit. oh, yeah, she said. have you? there are more useful things they could be learning about state lock picking, that sort of thing strange jail . do not pass go, do strange jail. do not pass go, do not collect £200, carry something even more needs addressing than quotas issues one this one's more like these female guards doing what they're supposed to do, having sex with a prisoner and they call it the daily mail, call it corruption . daily mail, call it corruption. and that really counts as corruption. but what's happened with these three so that you've got three female guards who've been having sex with the prisoners. they're obviously into prisoners and. as a result, they've sent to prison. for they've been sent to prison. for so this is a landscape for i mean, they're into i mean, don't sound derogatory about that. sound too derogatory about that. they have been sent to a female prison. they were prison. well, they were different. didn't what, prison. well, they were

difthe nt. didn't what, prison. well, they were difthe female didn't what, prison. well, they were difthe female prisoners? what, prison. well, they were difthe female prisoners? yeah:, prison. well, they were difthe female prisoners? yeah no to the female prisoners? yeah no difference scotland . oh, is difference in scotland. oh, is that all? the man identifying. well nowadays. yeah the tate, the daily mail. i think it really just that prison is getting a bit of action by choice that in prison but there's a list here of different officers committed to you know sex with with prison is an odd one here a court that one called gotten also in a pair of knickers for the prisoner inside her bra which which seems off because it's a much easier way for a woman to smuggle in apparently entirely unnoticed when you're a woman i think you can really wear a pair of knickers into most without them . and what goes on in general now they lost that. phones obviously seem to be changing handsis obviously seem to be changing hands is money. there's all sorts going on. one of sorts of stuff going on. one of them receiving snaps. yeah, right. was a photograph of right. there was a photograph of the of prison officer . i the picture of prison officer. i see a gun kissing khuram razzak inside his cell was almost like a professionally taken portrait . did you see? it was in the.

it's in the newspaper. well, they shouldn't allow portray just like a funeral in a way so that daft that was again cool it was actually i mean it was quite it was quite nicely set, you know they were look, it was almost like like a wedding shot. yeah. yeah. well mobile phone smuggling. i mean, this has got to be getting more and more painful. are huge. you painful. it phones are huge. you know much baffled as know obviously much baffled as this story is really about women still like bad boys this is going on over to the guardian the rival to the swiss army knife has. something a bit more impressive than point , impressive than the point, getting of horses. so getting stones out of horses. so yeah, researchers at imperial college london actually done something for a change something useful for a change instead of doing doing mod research into it is to visit this nice, nice invented this knife, pulled a knife that can reliably diagnose cancer and help thousands of healthy women get the all clear quicker. you might wonder this so it can smell tumours wonder how it can smell tumours wonder how it can smell given that it's got no

nose but, it uses electrical currents to differentiate between cancerous and healthy tissue by analysing the smoke this emitted when the tissues are vaporised. so it saves time in the biopsy , not as precise as in the biopsy, not as precise as the biopsy by biopsy urine for three weeks. and those are the most paranoid weeks of your life. what is this? let's you know, presumably, although it's called an ai knife, it's not actually a knife it doesn't penetrate the it's just penetrate the flesh. it's just placed against the flesh. it's a good good knife. i think good it's a good knife. i think it's one of these bad knives. it doesn't is surgical knife. oh, it could knife. you're so it could knife. you're wrong. so i fact you read through i love the fact you read through the it talks the entire article. it talks about and no point about the benefit and no point the who was ever not next. the knife who was ever not next. so come out with a knife that can detect been stabbed can detect whether been stabbed all . is also all by it. this is also sometimes called the sniffing scalpel . they're working on the scalpel. they're working on the genius bullet. they're working on a testicular cancer that can be felt by a castrato . i mean, be felt by a castrato. i mean, all right, now what i'm saying is, come up with a name . the

is, come up with a name. the thing i want to be sure, whether is a knife that does slice into flesh. and then now it looks like the same thing. it looks like the same thing. it looks like a no sort of it's like a skull no sort of it's a light thing. it it doesn't really stab. but they are working on a knife that detects haemorrhoids so would haemorrhoids so which would be a bit slap dark . come bit of a slap in the dark. come on now. it was i'm not here for nothing . the people , however, nothing. the people, however, just like it is like a work of bad jokes. i don't want this is by wednesday times it seems the tradition of papillon as a rule from the league gentlemen it's been abandoned by netflix. it continues in catalonia this the black face rail that hit spain it's the oldest feast of three kings parade where everybody with people black i was in pictures of this and there's loads of people blacked up and this now become an issue on the 3rd of january when it happens on the sixth, don't you think it would have been an issue earlier like during last year or the last few, rather then suddenly it's come up three days before the in the the event. so this is in the country bullfighting is country where bullfighting is

still as still happening, right as i think 35,000 bulls a year are still killed . bullfights and in still killed. bullfights and in the office. okay, that's fine then. isn't it just but you know, you know, 90% of the last part, the oldest americans you go and watch them they they don't realise what they let themselves for in and 90% never return. but anyway so what is return. but anyway so what it is it's the celebrate of they picked one of the wise men . picked one of the wise men. yeah. from the story and believe i believe that supposed to be i don't know whether he's written the story of be black so they think they can celebrate him mocking him recently is i think what's going on here is balthasar he's always presented as black on christmas cards and so on. the three kings, they know where they were when it was six and he was definitely white. six year old child, i think i remember. did he have a boot? black on his face then? no, no. his brother dead, very progressive school, i need to say. scotland the eighties. probably to be fair, this is an organisation called afro

feminists, who i think have mass indifference from people of spain. yeah i don't think it's having much effect . there's having much effect. there's another petition which is the camel's not be used in the event that attracted vast more signatures. right. well i told i think i'm totally against them. i mean, reading the women wearing camel toe, that's nice. how would you like to see why they get really upset to get the camels the in the camels in the in the bullfighting to bullfighting ring? get them to the spear? yes camel fighting, camel is a way to camel wrestling is a way to solve these things, leo, onto the telegraph , it seems tropes the telegraph, it seems tropes established by the league of gentlemen. same with this. the countryside is it in fact racist 7 countryside is it in fact racist ? is it is it a myth? well, the bbc presenter, nigel often yaki . i think that's how you pronounce his name. radio 5. he says the countryside, the british, white and middle class image puts off asian visitors. this looks like you know a piece of it. it looks like another thing. they know the countryside's racist, but actually what you're is actually what you're seeing is there is he feels that there there is he feels that there's a perception perpetuated by trolls that the

by social media trolls that the countryside inherently white countryside is inherently white and class and he said and middle class and he said i mean imagine if people said reversed it and said something else about birmingham or whatever but and he says you know , there's this image but know, there's this image but actually it's not it's not true. and you to the countryside, and you go to the countryside, people are happy see you. people are happy to see you. everybody's so and he says everybody's fun. so and he says he's , surprised how few asian he's, surprised by how few asian families he sees the peak families he sees in the peak district when communities of manchester sheffield are so manchester and sheffield are so close? i mean, maybe called. close? no, i mean, maybe called. i mean, maybe it's just not enough , you know, immigrant enough food, you know, immigrant are sometimes a bit more common sense. yeah. and british people, they don't like leave to walk up a mountain . there's someone at a mountain. there's someone at the top of the mountain to do. they inherited this they haven't inherited this tradition. that is an way to spend the weekend . we've just spend the weekend. we've just sort of accepted it because . sort of accepted it because. it's been done for generations before things netflix came before things like netflix came along. they have better along. yeah, they have better entertainment. yeah although i will is actually walking will say it is actually walking and up elevated is a and walking up elevated is a good way to get the heart thumping. and when you meet

people the is very people on the path it is very friendly and is i think in friendly and it is i think in fact it's nice he's saying that when he walks along the path as a lankan, it's people wave a lankan, it's people that wave and hello. doesn't and say hello. and he doesn't really they're actually really realise they're actually planning , but he's planning to hunt him, but he's strong and he says i'm often surprised how few asian see in surprised how few asian i see in the district. that's the peak district. that's because all been hunted because they've all been hunted and he says it's the this is one of the most tolerant countries on the planet which he'll probably get killed for that because that's of like although he did have daniel sloss on his show and daniel so he's is a scottish comedian. yeah and he slacked off this show . did he. slacked off this show. did he. did. he said there's no he said there's real comedians or gb news. you emmanuel. daniel news. oh you emmanuel. daniel sloss. single sloss. well tonight every single on this panel is better than you most nights. i mean, there are a few tough ones, mostly since every camera cameras zooming every camera cameras now zooming in, like you notice in, people face like you notice this hill . in, people face like you notice this hill. i'm a friend of daniel strauss and i actually agree with him. we're rubbish it's like it's like neat. he said said not kerry. you never

saw that. but he did not mention uk or . daniel saw that. but he did not mention uk or. daniel sort itself out. me is a good lad. he can have us on and we can set the story straight on that one anyway. in the meantime we go well we got to come with a commercial break now. that is it for part three. join after the break for why join us after the break for why spain spain. they want us spain still spain. they want us to their rubbish. why to clean up their rubbish. why germany wants people to literally rubbish the literally eat rubbish and the world's most rubbish boyfriend. we'll in couple minutes .

and back to headline news for the fourth. and generally speaking segment. so carry over to germany now and wednesday's and the practise of been diving or what i prefer to call post yellow label retrieval . this has yellow label retrieval. this has been a criminal offence joan

germany's plans to legalise bean which i thought of first it was it was dustbins diving the ocean which sound like great fun but it's not it is people diving dustbins but they don't call it that call it reclaiming food which sounds it sounds a lot nicer and i think this is news to most people in countries. you don't have any laws on binge diving. we have really thought around europe been diving that first hitchhiking know there were two things we would do the occasional if we occasional runner if we were feeling yeah and then feeling fit. yeah and then diving evenings, diving most evenings, our main meal from around meal came from hanging around bins mcdonald's or we bins outside mcdonald's or we were in the 1980s. remember the brand name you actually die for you use first and see what else the waistband yeah it's surprising so right over yeah it's like a party game. yeah something quite warm out of. i mean we are quite near to a major retailer here of course in the evening we all get the yellow labels, but i'm assuming they all then go to a homeless shelter something don't shelter or something don't they afterwards. but mean, afterwards. they do. but i mean, i think they can take i don't think they can take everything you give a homeless

shelter. you 12 no shelter. you 12 chickens. no suppose not. where do you suppose not. so where do you reckon to. i don't know. i'm reckon go to. i don't know. i'm going no going look. going to look. no going to look. yeah. right. next the yeah. we all right. next the canals. probably put them canals. they probably put them on a barge and take them up to the not going to the ships. now, i'm not going to play the ships. now, i'm not going to play all kinds of interesting opfions play all kinds of interesting options you have. i know i'm extra i'm funny that you make it illegal as people get trapped in ships don't think should be illegal or compulsory you have to dump it and dive into a been in venezuelan government made it compulsory . in venezuelan government made it compulsory. if you want to in venezuelan government made it compulsory . if you want to stay compulsory. if you want to stay alive you've got to bend dive. you've got to eat your dog as well he's certainly can't claim benefits until you explore that wednesday's guardian leo a heatwave is smashing temperatures records across the continent and spain plans to make tobacco companies empty. the ashtrays on the titanic the seems a bit futile to me. those drinks, they're going to make tobacco companies. spain's government is going to make tobacco for paying tobacco responsible for paying tobacco responsible for paying to clear the way cigarette . and to clear the way cigarette. and one of the ways they're going to do this this comes as as a raft of measures they're also banning

single use plastic cutlery and plates will make it plates which will make it difficult dumpster difficult for those dumpster divers. also cotton buds, divers. they also cotton buds, expanded polystyrene cups and plastic straws and. they're going to put scheme on where can redeem each cigarette that you collect for $0.20. so $0.20, $0.20 like the old bringing back bottle in the here, right? yeah. yeah. okay 20 smaller, bottle in the here, right? yeah. yeah. okay 20 smaller , £20 of a yeah. okay 20 smaller, £20 of a euro. yeah, yeah yeah, yeah. i mean so it's quite a lot it's quite a lot of money. yeah. so it's to go on the price of a packet of cigarettes but i mean luckily they're alread y £187 a luckily they're already £187 a packet. yeah. who's going to notice. isn't that nice. the people live the street. they people live on the street. they can, they can pick up bus and take them in and get some and so on so and yeah, i do, on and so on and yeah, i do, i can get the of this. but there's another principle involved which is, how bad is, you know, no matter how bad the companies if the tobacco companies are, if dropping that's their dropping litter, that's their fault, right? not it's not the company's fault. you use someone's a cigarette someone's throwing a cigarette on i know. on the bed. i don't know. i think that. you get

think they've done that. you get blame the. i know they. make blame for the. i know they. make lots of money. they're evil. everything else. but still everything else. but i still think whoever dropping the. but that's yeah that's their fault, right yeah but catch can but you can't catch them can you. it's too easy. whereas the tobacco are making tobacco companies are making a product invariably end product that invariably does end up quite up and these things are quite toxic. they don't toxic. right they don't disperse, oily disperse, and particularly oily and are billion and the oceans are 5 billion cigarette ocean. and cigarette ends in the ocean. and they i've done a bit of they really i've done a bit of scuba dive and they're really chalk the coral incredibly polluting ocean sloshing polluting to the ocean sloshing away marshes away through the marshes swimming butts swimming against cigarette butts everywhere probably ten years everywhere in probably ten years ten years to decompose. why aren't making that decompose? aren't we making that decompose? yeah i mean, 20, 22 shouldn't even do that until . like yeah i mean, 20, 22 shouldn't even do that until. like in the old days. yeah, well, they've all moved on. you can get your nicotine from a vaping machine. now, there really is no excuse anymore, is there? you know, i like a libertarian on these like to a libertarian on these things, probably they things, it's probably time they were out then. yeah i'm were phased out then. yeah i'm not sure i. don't know. i've got a feeling the vapes that there's going be something that's going to be something that's going to be something that's going in a few years going to turn up in a few years time it does any time like it does with any worse. smoking you have to worse. smoking is you have to give for but

give them up for sure, but single worst killer on what you meant the lights came out. meant when the lights came out. then they there were that people thought were better for thought they were better for a long smoked cigarette long time since smoked cigarette lighter. a lighter. yes, they did for a long time. this light of that light coming. knew light coming. they knew they better a lie, that better that it was a lie, that they couldn't know because it was a lot of research that showed was getting to the showed it was getting to the bottom and actually doing bottom of the and actually doing more that that took more damage that that took ten years. yes were taking years. yes they were taking before was light. before because it was light. i was overall it worse i was was overall it got worse i was ready my capstone on ready to smoke my capstone on tipped yeah yes. you tipped. yeah right yes. you always good decisions always make such good decisions but it the mouth and but to hold it in the mouth and then like a cigar. yeah, then just like a cigar. yeah, yeah. just go for the cancer over to the now kerry. and what else you find in the mirror but a failure. a husband and a father. the mirror . the mirror father. the mirror. the mirror is taken its stories from is now taken its stories from red. it seems my boyfriend shame me for embarrassing him was i gave to our child this is an actual of a woman she's giving birth and a boyfriend the whole way through. he's saying things like, can you stop screaming? you're really embarrassing me. and of everyone reddit you're really embarrassing me. and had everyone reddit you're really embarrassing me. and had a everyone reddit you're really embarrassing me. and had a completeyne reddit

the prince even, who then fell in love with robin, then each of the musketeers and then, as is levi, is currently in a relationship with a video game character. we see from the game ensemble stars you know in a relationship with you know a relationship with you know a relationship is a two way thing yes this is a video game character wasn't given any concern for you to over them and then later it actually says , then later it actually says, well, i found out am autistic. and that's a big that's too big to impose on anyone else at the moment. and i'm also so this just feels lot safer when it is safe because it's nothing. it's not a thing. but also is happening. all those things you just described , all the required just described, all the required things for a guardian reader to go in and do something. also you have to fall in love . all the have to fall in love. all the musketeers. can't one vs, musketeers. you can't do one vs, one one i do all know one an and one i do all know that you are also says on here in the article it says that they even have their own flag. it's like everyone's got their own flag now that's world we flag now that's the world we live it you it you believe live in it you it you believe a thing but you say something

really and really controversial and upset a lot you know, when it lot of people you know, when it comes to falling in love with fictional i know many of you want believe but millions want to believe me but millions of love this bloke called of people love this bloke called jesus kind of way. jesus. he all that kind of way. as a rule. i do. i don't know. i've spoken some of them. i i've spoken to some of them. i don't was anything don't think i was anything remotely unusual about this. they're trying create the idea that created a new that they've created a new i mean, whole point of mean, the whole point of romantic fiction throughout the centuries you fall in centuries has been you fall in love with each cliff, you fall in. know, jane what in. yeah. you know, jane what about when not jane abbott? you know i mean, it's like the know what, i mean, it's like the whole that there's whole point is that there's something is evoked something that is evoked in fiction don't fiction humans, i don't think anybody would say that they're currently relationship currently in a relationship that's not a flag on their twitter biography, not with the cartoon fox that plays with ivanhoe , the inspiration for ivanhoe, the inspiration for robin hood, apparently this was the other day . this guy had the other day. this guy had a whole people fall in love with building a really nice time for god. it was 52 acts of kindness. carrie, though some of them are close to harassment . this is.

close to harassment. this is. yes, the guardian is suggesting 52 acts of kindness for us all to spread joy in every week of 2023. it's actually quite nice list, but except for being to spread joy which never makes any of us feel. but it's quite condescending article that i'll read this. there's another way to be better by doing something kind. this doesn't mean giving money welcome though that always is. it's about giving your time empathy thought finding empathy and thought in finding to help people around . so and it to help people around. so and it carries on like this get a gym membership do this. so some of the things you can do is give blood, walk a dog, buy a big issue. target is food banks. be prepared. i think it's to do with helping struggling be you learn to revive a tired or struggling struggling that's about scale i'm up for that for tonight. thank you so much for tuning in. i've been simon evans i won't my baby with me on this occasion but for the next week. thanks to my panel leo kearse and kerry marks headline as we bet with evening with bet tomorrow with evening with josh mechanics and all
