repeated misogyny over decades . repeated misogyny over decades. and as leaders our mindset should have been determined to spot and root out such a misogynist . so as i. i apologise misogynist. so as i. i apologise to his victims and. i want to say sorry to all the women across who feel let down by this and whose trust in policing is shaken by this . an afghan asylum shaken by this. an afghan asylum seeker has been to life in prison with a minimum of 29 years languishing . abdul rahim years languishing. abdul rahim zai was fined guilty of the murder of 21 year old thomas roberts this week. it followed an argument reportedly involving an argument reportedly involving an outside a takeaway in bournemouth. abdul rahim's ii had previously found guilty of a double murder in serbia and workers in the uk are striking for the first time in a dispute, overpay . the tech giant says overpay. the tech giant says a tiny proportion its workforce involved claiming they're proud to offer competitive pay in a system that recognise is great

performance. but staff at the company's coventry warehouse rejected a proposed pay rise of $0.50 an hour as derisory because the severe conditions its employees , including tiny its employees, including tiny toilet . rugby union member toilet. rugby union member workers have had enough. a pressure cooker environment that they in any way with the target that they're expected to reach. you know they just wear a mouse , get rid of a reply. some after all that they just offered a $0.50 pay increase in the biggest cost of living crisis that we've had in. and i think when workers got nothing to lose, you see, coming out fighting , this is gb news more fighting, this is gb news more as it happens. as always but now it is back to . it is back to. patrick welcome aboard people quite literally actually because we start this hour with breaking

news has can exclusively reveal hundreds of migrants have crossed the channel to reach the uk on small boats with hundreds more expected. still to come , more expected. still to come, it's believed over a thousand illegal migrants will attempt . illegal migrants will attempt. the crossing today alone . the the crossing today alone. the poor weather has taken of the pressure off rishi sunak's government . the prime minister government. the prime minister promised to get tough on those abusing the uk's system. let's go live now to dover. let's not mess around . stocks rise. in mess around. stocks rise. in short, we were years home as security editor. why? and mark, i believe that you've got a bit of an update for us. you yes. just as we speak, another border force vessel has come into dover harbour for the process setting centre here with the occupants of two small boat loads that have been picked up in the middle of the english channel. that's about hundred people taken to dover. and that the total so far . today of those total so far. today of those who've arrived here two 450 in

nine small boats the first of these small boats just after midnight last night. we've got a break in the weather conditions has been pretty horrendous out in the channel for most of the last two months there have only been a few days since the new year when weather conditions have just about been good enough for these inflatables to be able make that voyage the channel. and every time, not happens. and of course , the criminal gangs of course, the criminal gangs will attempt to push them out, as many as they can. well, today is a much calmer day, but it's only very short lived calm day. weather conditions are already starting to close in the channel starting to close in the channel, so a very small window for them to try get across. now, sources had suggested to us that a thousand might attempt the crossing . we know of the 450 crossing. we know of the 450 who've six fully excuse me successfully made it in addition to that several other boats had

attempted to get into uk waters . they didn't make it that far. what often happens, patrick, that they run out of either fuel on these little outboard motors that they have the tides take, a hold of them and they're pushed further up and therefore it's really to storm back towards france. several vessels are being forced to go back to france . there was another couple france. there was another couple of incidents around cali where a french actually managed to enter groups of migrants as they were running towards the water to get their vessels onto the water and then out to sea. but before they got into the water. they managed to puncture these boats . the to puncture these boats. the migrants have run off into the dunes , of course, to regroup to dunes, of course, to regroup to be supplied with another boat and no doubt try on another day. so activity still continuing for the moment. patrick but the weather window, as i see no fast if they're not in the water it's

unlike clear that they'll be able to set off now from france . yes, indeed. and that is the breaking line that just in the last few minutes as you were heanng last few minutes as you were hearing now from a wide around 100 or so others have now arrived in the uk, bringing our total to, as we understand it, around migrants in around around 450 migrants in around nine small boats so far today. we'll have to wait to see if there is any more. do we still have one? is it possible for me to go back to me i'll just go about some up because mark, i think a lot of people will be wondering now whether or not there's been any impact whatsoever some the whatsoever to some of the measures supposedly measures that we're supposedly seeing implemented, whether it's, you know, border force offices french beaches, in offices on french beaches, in french etc. french patrol stations, etc. doesn't be making much doesn't appear to be making much difference the. yeah i mean difference at the. yeah i mean let's dive into some of those supposed measures a little more detail. the french or the british officers on beaches, that's two or three liaison officers . i was in france acting officers. i was in france acting

in just that capacity as liaison officers . isn't dozens, hundreds officers. isn't dozens, hundreds officers. isn't dozens, hundreds of border force officers making any meaningful difference to the efforts to the small boats ? so efforts to the small boats? so that's not happening. what is happening in a few days time is that we will have border force resuming come mind and control of channel migrant operations. you'll remember since april of last year as announced by then minister boris johnson and, the then home secretary, priti patel, the military took over and control. now it's reverting back to border force under what is called a new small boats operational command which will bnng operational command which will bring together border force the military and, the national crime agency . that will do according agency. that will do according to the authorities, is to make the operations, to intercept and detect those migrants much more effective , pinpoint where they effective, pinpoint where they are, get them picked up. but it's not going stop them from pushing off from france in the

first place. well, no , quite first place. well, no, quite frankly. but another thing they are doing is improving cooperation with the french, with a view to going the migrants , those people smugglers migrants, those people smugglers on the other side of the channel thatis on the other side of the channel that is not a quick fix , though. that is not a quick fix, though. it's going to take some time and all of the time as the weather conditions improve, these small boats as we've seen today, are still and will still arrive in large numbers . mark, thank you large numbers. mark, thank you very much. as ever , our home very much. as ever, our home security editor, mark white there live in dover . got some there live in dover. got some intel yesterday , suggest that intel yesterday, suggest that there were going to be potentially record numbers crossing the channel today. he's been stationed there all day and the results are there for all see at the bottom of your screens, around 450 migrants have arrived so far in around nine small boats, we're going be keeping you up to date on all that. but ladies and gentlemen, it was time really to return to a story, some would argue slightly lengths, more slightly lengths. was that we were

lengths. and it was that we were going big on yesterday with good reason. it made me angry. and i know a fact that it made a lot of you genuinely angry . i just of you genuinely angry. i just want you to take a little moments and listen to this with me, my world my life and my hopes have been ripped away. i can't look at photos without sobbing. i'm not the same . can't look at photos without sobbing. i'm not the same. i will never be the same . i will will never be the same. i will never live like i did. i'm trapped in an endless cycle of despair . and trapped in an endless cycle of despair. and this as well . trapped in an endless cycle of despair. and this as well. his life was cut short by. a murderer and his murderer just murderer and his murdererjust kill him. he killed part of each and every one of the family. kill him. he killed part of each and every one of the family . and and every one of the family. and it is a part of us which can never be replaced . there is now never be replaced. there is now a massive hole in our lives where tommy should have been . where tommy should have been. that's the voice of the families impacted by afghan asylum and convicted triple murderer allowing gain. abdul ramzi .

allowing gain. abdul ramzi. earlier today he was sentenced life imprisonment for the murder of 21 year old aspiring royal marine thomas roberts after an argument outside a subway takeaway that really hammers home doesn't say it and i think it does certainly for me anyway that question of who's who's human rights, are we really trying to protect here? we can go our south—west of england. reporter jeff moody , who is reporter jeff moody, who is outside salisbury crown court us now abdul ramzi has been sent as jeff thank you very much . bring jeff thank you very much. bring us up to date please as these statements were very powerful or weren't they, patrick? very powerful . hear them weren't they, patrick? very powerful. hear them in court, too. well the judge in his sentencing today said thomas roberts did , nothing wrong that roberts did, nothing wrong that notes he was simply unlucky be in the wrong place at, the wrong time. he went on to talk about allowing in abdul rahim. i looked at his mitigating circumstances. he said that he would have suffered trauma earlier on in his life and the

said there can be no doubt of the effects of the horrors of growing up in afghanistan . i growing up in afghanistan. i accept that his past life experiences have left him very damaged and affected how he reacts to some situations and this does have set the judge some effect on his culpability , some effect on his culpability, but only to a small extent extreme violence is wholly unjustified , judge said he went unjustified, judge said he went out seeking trouble with a knife in his belt. the 26 second argument that led to his tragedy was entirely of his own making . was entirely of his own making. well, earlier on today, simon hooks to the senior investigating officer had this to say. are with the family and loved of thomas roberts and i want to thank for the dignified way that they have conducted themselves throughout the investigation and court proceedings . i would also like proceedings. i would also like to thank all those dorset police

and prosecution team have worked tirelessly to achieve justice for tommy and his family. tommy's family and loved ones have suffered an unspeakable loss as a result of this horrific incident . a knife . if horrific incident. a knife. if anyone out there believes someone in possession of a knife , offensive weapon , please , offensive weapon, please contact the police immediately matter relating to the defendant's background and previous convictions have been shared with relevant to ensure appropriate reviews carried out and for learning identify it. however focus and that of my teams. the nine months has been to gather evidence relating to the brutal murder of tommy and

ensure that his has been brought to justice. we. yes, and we were heanng to justice. we. yes, and we were hearing earlier on very harrowing statements from the family that talked , living family that talked, living there, being trapped , an endless there, being trapped, an endless cycle of disbelief while he sentenced to life imprisonment . sentenced to life imprisonment. and he will serve at least 29 years. jeff thank you very much. jeff brady, that report saying outside salisbury crown court where abdul rahim was sentenced just bit of context. if you're just bit of context. if you're just joining us, maybe didn't see the show yesterday. we were leading with this did it leading with this and did it throughout yesterday. throughout the show yesterday. as correct to do so as i it was correct to do so because it is a deeply shocking case with, a load of different layers of frankly utter lunacy case with, a load of different layerzthisrankly utter lunacy case with, a load of different layerzthis particularzr lunacy case with, a load of different layerzthis particular chap acy to it. this particular chap posed as a 14 year old boy when he was a man. and i think most people would argue it's pretty obvious he was a man previously convicted . a double murder in convicted. a double murder in serbia denied asylum in norway for drug dealing, etc, was men for drug dealing, etc, was men for money on the street and was

posing with knives on social media was of course, crucially and i think this has gone underreported placed in a school with children reports from those parents suggesting that there was assaults taking place there etc. and also as well some pictures from female classmates going to him which again is another layer of sickening behaviour here, isn't there then? now of course he committed a murder for which he's been sentenced to 29 years. i've had emails coming on this thick and fast. gb views. gb news .uk and the overbearing one that i can see at the minute is what do you have do get a full life term? have do to get a full life term? okay, minimum 29 years. it's long time. what do you have to do be the kind of individual do to be the kind of individual that our justice system thinks should never see the light of day well, to day and well, joining me to discuss this is migration research fellow at the group is benjamin lock name benjamin. i obviously incredibly obviously feel incredibly strongly this do you strongly about this what do you have to do to get for life to well look this is the saying i mean you know he's not he's not

that old really is he? you think about it in terms of 29 years. he'll be out of some point and, you know, he'll be the streets possibly going to it again. you never know . he really should never know. he really should probably get a full life term, but better than that, he should be deported and he shouldn't have first place. have been there the first place. and we proper system and if we had a proper system and we were able to pull people have right to be here when have no right to be here when they we know they got no they in and we know they got no right to be here. this would you know, probably not have happened in place. it was in the first place. it was avoidable. and the concern avoidable. and the big concern for like him are for me is how many like him are there? this has exposed what people you . and i have been people like you. and i have been talking for a very long talking about for a very long time, that whilst we time, which is that whilst we would everyone well is would wish everyone well who is a genuine seeker and who is well meaning and who was genuinely fleeing and persecution in fleeing war and persecution in the factors , clearly the absolute factors, clearly are not tracing people who are murdering drug addicts with murderous when they get to britain . yeah, well, this is the britain. yeah, well, this is the problem with when you have a border system where people can walk in, they don't have to prove who they are. we have no

idea who they are we don't know where they're coming from. we don't what. criminal don't know what. criminal convictions what convictions will ask what history don't know history they have. we don't know what capable of. don't what we're capable of. we don't know what they present to know what danger they present to the in this country. and the people in this country. and it's able to bring it's not charity able to bring these in and we're these people in here and we're going in our country going to hide you in our country to look you when it hurts the of this country at risk. when you have people like this coming in line age, that over 18 line their age, that is over 18 going school with, you going into school with, you know, we're know, young kids we're safeguarding where's safeguarding that. where's the charity that, putting charity in doing that, putting those at risk and a danger and not just the kids but the entire country you know this is a bad idea . and if you hold up a sign idea. and if you hold up a sign that says refugees, welcome and you march in the streets. i you know, we're very compassionate. we are lovely that you will somehow do something . actually, somehow do something. actually, what you're doing is you're putting a lot of people at risk. you've hit the nail, the head there. because thinking there. because i was thinking this night, how many this last night, how many people's rights had to people's human rights had to suffer result trying suffer as a result of trying to protect individual. yeah protect this individual. yeah human rights you look at his foster they had a narrow

foster family, they had a narrow escape in the case escape, wider public in the case of this individual, the poor royal aspiring royal marine, he didn't have escape . all didn't have a narrow escape. all he to death. there's he was stabbed to death. there's of this particular of events of this particular individual , of events of this particular individual, all fighting men for money street. a lot money on the street. a lot of the time know he was carrying the time we know he was carrying knives anyway. i think knives anyway. and i think benjamin there's i benjamin, there's something i would comment on would like you to comment on now. girls in now. the young girls in classrooms, presumably around territory, who are looking behind them and thinking who is 20, 30, 40 year old money? my math class, benjamin yeah. it's disgraceful . think you know any disgraceful. think you know any parents who see happening in the schools their children are at best thing you can possibly do is to you got to protect your children. you've to take them away that situation. it away from that situation. it does a lot of people's does destroy a lot of people's lives when you allow people to infiltrate, lie about who they are, lie about where they're from and you know, at fairly maliciously or terrible way , the maliciously or terrible way, the things that they're doing and they take advantage of how soft we are because really take we brought out the red carpet. we

get them, we bring them in, we put in hotels, give them put them in hotels, we give them pizzas. they say they're pizzas. if they say they're 14. yes, they're 14. and go to our schools, in our classrooms schools, sit in our classrooms and. you get and. then eventually you get these tragedies where people die or, know , you see other or, you know, you see other terrible crimes being committed as well. it's just the murders that are the problem . but, you that are the problem. but, you know, we're allowing the and frankly, it's out of control and we in the name of we do it in the name of compassion and charity. i don't think anything think there's anything passionate just just passionate about this, just just quickly, benjamin, i've got to ask , what is the solution we can ask, what is the solution we can identify the problems, and we are rightly outraged them. are rightly outraged about them. and to highlight and we're right to highlight them. some point, someone them. but at some point, someone has some has to come up with some solutions. are the solutions. are you the man? yeah. we need to get to yeah. well we need to get to gnps yeah. well we need to get to grips the human rights problem in this country. but human in this country. but the human rights enables a lot rights act, which enables a lot of to it of of these people to take it of kindness and no willingness to believe that people have legitimate claims coming , that legitimate claims coming, that we need to get at least so we can start deporting people that right to be here. we effectively just need to toughen up a bit as

a country so soft, we say, you know , we let people take know, we let people take advantage of and then we wonder why things this happened. why things like this happened. i think get back to brass think need to get back to brass taxes actually with taxes is actually dealing with these you very as these benjamin thank you very as even these benjamin thank you very as ever. benjamin lot nine is migration research fellow at the bio group just reacting to the sentencing of that afghan asylum seeker poses a chill and went on to stop man to death a responding royal marine no less after having already been convicted a double murder, a string of drug offences denied asylum elsewhere passing through safe being put in a safe countries, being put in a school couldn't make it school kids you couldn't make it up. you've got to make up. you're with me. patrick christys on gb news coming up, more on how the labour leader and the prime minister. well in bit of prime minister. well in a bit of a quashing the commons earlier open he always open to things that he always talks about, it was wasn't it. it a bit punch and judy, it it was a bit punch and judy, it was a little bit theatrical. that's where we're at that's i suppose, where we're at now, it? two of now, isn't it? two blocks of wood at other. we will wood go at each other. we will have latest with olivia have the latest with olivia utley after this very short .

break well, it's time to dip ourselves back into the men's club, which is i'm now calling prime minister's questions because rishi sunak has defended his of the two teams a how we tax row dunng the two teams a how we tax row during today's pmqs he acknowledged that he hadn't been given the full picture about the tory financial tory chairman's financial matters told employees matters when he told employees week that zahawi had given week that mr. zahawi had given a full account. keir starmer him on a little bit of a ding dong. with me now, gb news is political reporter olivia utley levy. how was the domain's club today ? well, at the start of today? well, at the start of pmqs was very clear that rishi sunak was on the back foot. instead focusing at the very beginning on the nadhim zahawi affair , keir starmer chose to affair, keir starmer chose to talk about horrific zara aleena case and the general state, the probation services after 13 years of tory rule and that made

initially look like the sort of statesman of the pair. instead of focusing on the sordid goings on in one. he's looking at the issues that really matter to the country. then when he did get to the themes of hallway effect, i mean the change of tone from rishi sunak was quite something to behold. last he stood up in pmqs and essentially defended nadhim zahawi to the hilt . now nadhim zahawi to the hilt. now the prime minister seems to have sort of washed his hands of him, cut adrift said, i can only cut adrift and said, i can only go on what i know. i told the whole story basically and more detail allows me come out. i briefed properly by the cabinet office . of course that does office. of course that does raise questions. office. of course that does raise questions . questions for raise questions. questions for the cabinet office in particular. simon case , who of particular. simon case, who of course oversaw the rich chart affair as well. so he's in a bit . an awkward position. but it also raises the question of why when rishi sunak promised to restore integrity to public life , did he not probe a little bit further when? it's clear that there were questions over nadhim zahawi behaviour. overall, it

like keir starmer , could have like keir starmer, could have landed harder blows than he did. he was very sort of forensic and lawyerly , which worked up to lawyerly, which worked up to a point , but it lawyerly, which worked up to a point, but it did feel like rishi sunak's be in real at the end of that pmqs and the punches didn't quite hit home. you managed to turn his sort of political naivety in perhaps into into a strength by saying, you know, he's a man who plays by the books and he's going to let due process be out, play out. and keir starmer sort of allowed that to happen. yes, indeed.i allowed that to happen. yes, indeed. i say i kind of got quite a similar impression. i'd say watching, i think i've actually seen it all have been relieved over. relieved that it was over. starmer probably annoyed that he didn't have another of questions asked him and didn't necessarily any blows. rishi any of those killer blows. rishi sunak did spin it back to him, didn't he ? obviously. well, didn't he? obviously. well, i know he reads off script, but maybe he should listen to what i say, and i can't help but feel that they could both be saying about other, could they?

about each other, could they? well, sunak said well, exactly. rishi sunak said that line, which was a good line, good from the line, got good reaction from the conservative backbenches and then back his then immediately went back his own script, which has a bit of a feature of the offs between these two men over the pmqs exchanges that we've seen that never seems to be the fire that we've seen with with previous altercations. as you say , think altercations. as you say, think yes rishi sunak will be pleased oven yes rishi sunak will be pleased over. but in some respects did manage to hold his own . i think manage to hold his own. i think this line that he's going to stick to due process works relatively well with some of the conservative backbenchers are relieved to see his kind of cautious step by step approach . cautious step by step approach. the more turbulent tenures of bofis the more turbulent tenures of boris johnson and liz truss . boris johnson and liz truss. look, olivier, thank you very, very much as ever. gb news, this political reporter olivia utley that from westminster reacting to the prime minister's questions. apart from the zara aleena lead in with that which i think we can all agree was incredibly appropriate and serious question our serious question marks our justice the justice system, which, by the way, be returning to

way, we're going be returning to a bit in the a little bit later on in the show. focus there on the themes are always rather interesting isn't the album feel as though yes. i know are yes. all right. i know there are questions about honesty, integrity of power integrity at the heart of power and important. but and those are important. but what that really what are the main that really matter you and often do you matter to you and often do you actually hear them actually really hear them discussed at pmqs? a lot of the time it is internal westminster stuff, but talking of your views on what matters to you of you have been getting in touch with thoughts on shock horror the current migrant crisis gb news can exclusively reveal. and we did just a few minutes ago with the wonderful mogwai, a total of 450 people have arrived in dover today alone. don says, i wish the government would stop lying to the people of this country. we're going to stop migration, they say all they is talk and yes nothing appears to be happening. fact, happening. in fact, the situation is predicted get situation is predicted to get quite lot worse. eric says this is getting of hand. eric has already got out of hand anyway. this is getting out of hand. we need get the armed forces need to get the armed forces involved . the inflatables involved. the inflatables will

be it absolutely be a good start. it absolutely boggles my eric that the boggles my mind eric that the full of interpol europol whatever our security services are on the ground over there as well seems absolutely unable to stop the transportation and manufacturing of small boats and them arriving in calais before being filled with people and pushed offshore. i it's almost like not trying isn't it? jeff says. like not trying isn't it? jeff says . i think the like not trying isn't it? jeff says. i think the more money we give france, the more migrants they will send us all the way out to the bribing france to us, these people. it won't change until country stands up until the country stands up and does something just on the. now i joking bit there i know you're joking bit there about us bribing which about us bribing france which obviously clearly that obviously mean clearly that would bribe, would be a terrible bribe, wouldn't you make wouldn't it? but jeff, you make a is that it won't a point which is that it won't until country stands and until the country stands up and does something and i have massive massive genuinely about where this country is going to headin where this country is going to head in terms of public dissatisfaction , rather dissatisfaction, rather distasteful things on the streets if people keep being put in harm's way, if people keep being told there's no for , money being told there's no for, money x, y and z, but there's money for this stuff. frankly, in the

welcome now number 10 has voiced concerns after a transgender woman of raping two women. wow there were a man is being held a women's prison. it's an absolute minefield , isn't it? there we minefield, isn't it? there we go. i le parisien the crimes whilst called adam and began transition ing only after he was charged with rape . many have charged with rape. many have stated that such events will be more common under nicholas sturgeon as proposed. gender reform bill and a lot of you will remember that that was big on.the will remember that that was big on. the agenda last week and the week before. and he's back on the agenda now because of this. me now is dr. kate coleman, director of keep prisons single sex . thank you very much. great sex. thank you very much. great to have you on the show. your initial reaction to this case, it should probably be more than it should probably be more than it is, unfortunately . well, i it is, unfortunately. well, i mean, here we are again on i

mean, here we are again on i mean, this this case has got everything has a name. we've got somebody been convicted of two counts of rape referred to in court as she and her the now not uncommon but completely nonsensical phrase with her penis used he clearly still has his penis from the photographs that we've seen and remarkably he's barrister tried to the facts of his quote unquote transition which as you quite rightly said came about after he was charged with these offences . his defence barrister tried to use this as a case for him being acquitted of these crimes . you acquitted of these crimes. you know, we've we've seen a trans identity being used to try to get a lesser sentence or for certain crimes non—custodial sentence . but here we have sentence. but here we have a barrister leveraging it for acquittal . what can i say is acquittal. what can i say is absolutely shocking i'm just

going to use this man's original name adam , of course, is going. name adam, of course, is going. yeah so adam began transitioning only after being arrested . only after being arrested. charged, which i think says something doesn't say. and now will, as far as we understand be settled with his full equipment, as it were, into a woman's prison. well, i mean, why wouldn't you ? frankly, why wouldn't you? frankly, why wouldn't you? frankly, why wouldn't you? frankly, why wouldn't you? i mean there's all sorts of advanced it. can you get special treatment if you're you have to be sent to the male estate. you've got the ultimate goal of being sent to the female estate . apparently your defence estate. apparently your defence barrister can now leverage it to try and get you an acquittal. why wouldn't you try this ? yes. why wouldn't you try this? yes. i mean, we understand that he's now been sent to court in veil, which is a female prison . now been sent to court in veil, which is a female prison. he's apparently being held in segregation. but i understand from rhona hotchkiss, he's a former governor, that the way

the segregation is work is that it's kind of on a 72 hour basis , and then you have to reapply. and she says that the chances of this person being six fully held in segregation are for the entirety of the until he's due to be sent are slim to none and then. to be sent are slim to none and then . yes. what what's going to then. yes. what what's going to happen to him . i mean, we know happen to him. i mean, we know that there are violent and sexual offenders , including sexual offenders, including within male genitalia held in female state. why would this as his defence barrister termed it, vulnerable . be any different? vulnerable. be any different? it's absolutely astonishing. i mean, i actually watched a video, albeit from the united states, but you can imagine it's only a matter of time before it comes over here. this morning, on the way of kindergarten age children being told about them potentially being born into the wrong bodies and adults lapping up when four and five year olds

are talking about, people potentially being non—binary , potentially being non—binary, etc. and it put a very , very etc. and it put a very, very uneasy feeling in my stomach, as it were. but nicholas sturgeon is this proposed gender reform bill was towards the top of the news agenda for a brief period of time. i want you to bring it back up there for us, because why that make things like this more likely ? well, this more likely? well, this president doesn't have a gender recognition certificate . i think recognition certificate. i think that's important to say . recognition certificate. i think that's important to say. but what nicholas sturgeon bill would do would mean it was much easier for people like adam to get a gender recognition certificate with comparative . i certificate with comparative. i mean i think it's important to point out that the current system that we've got, which has a more onerous and lengthy process, that somebody has to undergo before getting a jail , undergo before getting a jail, that's not akin to at all the fact that something's more difficult doesn't make it safer . it just means that fewer

people are probably able to go through the process . but through the process. but sturgeon's bill removes many of these difficult makes it extremely to get a grc on the bafis extremely to get a grc on the basis self i.d. extremely to get a grc on the basis self id. no medical diagnosis required. you've just got to live as a woman. whatever means for a three month period and opens it up to six year olds as well . so this increase makes as well. so this increase makes it a much easier process. as well. so this increase makes it a much easier process . and it a much easier process. and you know, although having a gender recognition certificate, it's not an absolute guarantee of being sent to a women's prison . when we look at the prison. when we look at the situation south of the border with the ministry of justice, it increases chances hugely of being sent to a women's prison. and i know that the scottish pfisons and i know that the scottish prisons service and they reiterated holyrood today in response to a question asked by russell findlay that they pay scant regard to gender recognition certificates status

. but what's key to not note is that by their own admission, they've never had to deal with a prisoner with gender recognition certificate . so it's not so open certificate. so it's not so open what's actually going to happen? is it ? it is what's actually going to happen? is it? it is worthwhile pointing out. actually, we were bringing about a recovery. this a bit later in the show as well. and we're getting a variety of different gaffes on one of which is a former prison governor who just basically said it was which was enough. i never had to deal with, i don't know. so with, so i don't really know. so he's coming out. but that's he's not coming out. but that's the you've just made. the point that you've just made. this much new ground this is very much new ground conscious. what are you to put something this to a public something like this to a public referendum? because as far as i can it is just very, can see, it is just a very, very, very small vocal minority of people who appear to have captivated . it's a very small captivated. it's a very small element of our ruling elite . element of our ruling elite. they happen to be the ones able to make decisions, and they think that they're doing it for the wider public benefit. but i suspect the public vote will put them box. when them back in that box. when i say mean it is true, the

say i mean it is true, the general public are, they're in agreement with us. this is absolutely ridiculous that men are men women are women, male is female is female . you can have female is female. you can have whatever personality want, but it doesn't change your sex. and that sex matters matters in life. it matters in law it matters in policy. it matters everywhere . i mean, in terms of everywhere. i mean, in terms of a referendum , i mean, i think a referendum, i mean, i think it's quite ridiculous that you'd put something like this to a pubuc put something like this to a public vote in order to obtain change in law. i think that i think that's nonsensical. frankly, it would be like putting it putting it to the vote. you know something about gravity or , the law of gravity or, the law of thermodynamics . so one plus one thermodynamics. so one plus one equals two. you wouldn't put something that to a public referendum. so why would you put something as obvious as this politician ? you need to wake up politician? you need to wake up and they do need to realise that the general public are not in favour of this. this woke agenda

which causes real harm. it's not a culture war. it's causing real, real harm across the board . yeah, i couldn't agree more. very much. and good luck to you. i'm sure. we'll talk very very soon. kate coleman, the director . keep prisons, single sex. i mean, look, just wait on this is absolutely astonishing, isn't . absolutely astonishing, isn't. that's an individual in found guilty rapes can be sent with you know everything in as it were into a women's and will by me by no means be the only person in the world gone. so as i can tell, we're moving on from that now because the metropolitan commissioner has said today that several police officers face legal action and his attempt to root corruption in the force . it comes after in the force. it comes after former pc david craig pleaded guilty to 14 on sexual offence crimes and was officially sacked from the force last week. gb news national reporter ellie costello has a lot more detail on what sir mark rowley's desire to clamp down on police conduct

when in front of the police and crime committee here at the london assembly, there was a stunning from sir mark rowley, who is the commissioner of the police. he said that there were 2 to 3 officers facing criminal charges in court every single week at the moment, which does just the scale of , this just the scale of, this operation to root out these rogue officers . he admitted that rogue officers. he admitted that there would very many more of cases to come. he said that londoners would see progress from the metropolitan police and that they must improve dramatically for. he said that at the moment they are lifting the stone and revealing painful truths and that will not happen . he prepared londoners for these stories will be coming out about metropolitan police officers and retired metropolitan officers in the next few weeks and months. he

promised that it wouldn't be rapid. it could be painful, but it will be fair. rapid. it could be painful, but it will be fair . and he appealed it will be fair. and he appealed for londoners not to lose heart as they confront these issues . as they confront these issues. okay. well, joining me now , dr. okay. well, joining me now, dr. margaret heffernan, who is an adviser to the casey review culture and standards of behaviour of the metropolitan police and professor in practise at the university of bath. thank you very much for joining us. the wider public now might be looking around and thinking, well, i am a law abiding citizen. i like law and order, a supporter of the police thinks maybe they gets a bit of a raw from time to time. but then you look at the fact that the head of the met is saying that what was it, two, three or four of them a week. but we in court. it's shocking stuff. well is it's shocking stuff. well it is shocking. and i think everybody who's been on who's seen what's been on unveiled in the last couple of months, metropolitan police months, the metropolitan police , is deeply, deeply worrying . , is deeply, deeply worrying. it's why the casey report was in

the first place, because terrible cases keep coming out of the woodwork. and i think mark riley is exactly right to warn people. that this is not going to be susceptible to an easy fix . that a couple of quick easy fix. that a couple of quick initiatives aren't going to solve the problem . and i think solve the problem. and i think in doing so he's showing is a commitment to try to fix this problem for real not through spin. and i really admire him for showing that and being honest about saying it's going to be very . it's going to take to be very. it's going to take a lot of work . it's to be very. it's going to take a lot of work. it's going to affect a lot of people . and, you affect a lot of people. and, you know, there aren't any magic . know, there aren't any magic. magic ways to solve these kinds of problems. now indeed. but how on earth have we ended up here? one would have thought that when you're in the police is possibly more scrutiny ever with an old police phone or police laptops or whatever it is, and yet,

clearly there's been an torrent of abuse of behaviour ranging. well from the violent to the criminal , the sexual issues. i criminal, the sexual issues. i mean, it's right across the board . well, i think it is right board. well, i think it is right across . the board. and i think across. the board. and i think that's one reason why it's so important not to just kind of go in for some symbol like action, but to actually dig deep into the foundations of this problem and deal with it once and for all. i think, you know, there's another huge problem implicit in this, which is that people don't trust the police . let's be trust the police. let's be honest. many many women now don't . i you know, certainly my don't. i you know, certainly my generation, they don't trust the police. they're afraid of the police. they're afraid of the police. they're afraid of the police. they wouldn't go to the police. they wouldn't go to the police if they were in trouble . police if they were in trouble. this is a huge problem because police depend on public support and trust to be able to function. so they're relationship between society and

the police needs to be renegotiated . but it only can be renegotiated. but it only can be when people start to feel that the police are being honest with themselves about the depth of their difficulty and committed to, fixing it and committing to not just passing the buck and blaming it on government or government, blaming the police or police blaming the police commissioners. but or police blaming the police commissioners . but actually what commissioners. but actually what i really have to admire is honest truth. it's going to be long. it's going to be difficult . and it's not going to be over tomorrow. i think one of the reasons it's taken long for this to have a properly is because everybody's always falling on the bad apples theory. it's just a couple of bad apples . well, a couple of bad apples. well, after a while, everybody can see it isn't that this is in dummett it's systemic and so to have such horrible tragic scandals emerge involving the death of

women like sarah everard smallman biba . you know to have smallman biba. you know to have these terrible things in our newspapers suggest not just that there are people in the met, but there are people in the met, but there also people in them who have suggestions, anxieties and do not voice them. and so for this of systemic problem, you need systemic silence, which you have to reinvent a culture where when people are uncovered or uncertain about their colleagues there is a safe, proper to deal with that . yes, indeed . my with that. yes, indeed. my concern will be that, as in person as it is, that they clear up mess. it's also how they behave afterwards. because you mentioned there are about policing by consent and about trust the police and how important all of that is. at the same time needing to root out these bad apples and corruption and corrosive behaviour. i don't believe that the vast majority of the british public want police force to go woke. i don't

. they want to be taking . they want them to be taking the the i don't the knee all the time. i don't think they want doing think they want them to be doing the macarena lgbtq+ march. the macarena at lgbtq+ march. you know they want this and it's a fine the police a very, very fine for the police to tread, is it not, between enforcing law and order in a way that the vast majority that i think the vast majority of public would them to of the public would want them to do with real vigour and do so with real vigour and firmness. frankly and also ensuring officers ensuring that of their officers cross line. it's a. i don't cross that line. it's a. i don't think it's actually a delicate thing, as you suggest. i don't think the are committing huge amounts of time and effort to appearin amounts of time and effort to appear in what in the slightest . i think that they they funding difficulties. i think they have employment and retention difficult days. i think they have staffing and they have gigantic issues which at the moment would be a profound disincentive to really great people wanting to join the police. so i think i don't think that i don't think is a problem. i think all of those much more serious issues are the heart of the matter. dr. margaret, thank you very much. as ever. dr.

margaret heffernan, that who is an adviser to the casey review into culture standards of into culture and standards of behaviour the met and behaviour at the met and a professor in practise at the university of bath reacting well frankly, line that frankly, that shocking line that every week three four every single week three or four police officers are going be police officers are going to be appearing in court for variety police officers are going to be ap differentn court for variety police officers are going to be ap different crimes, for variety police officers are going to be ap different crimes, which ety police officers are going to be ap different crimes, which is( of different crimes, which is not great, is it? not particularly great, is it? maybe the of wales is gearing up to launch a major campaign to help young children improve their life chances. now she's believed have called on believed to have called on experts across board to experts from across the board to make aware of the make people aware of the importance early development. importance of early development. joining me live now from windsor is gb news is royal it's cameron walker on duty doing work helping people out says has been going on isn't that nice the royal doing that certainly is patching afternoon yes it's really a project she's been working on the princess of wales for over a decade now and she is geanng for over a decade now and she is gearing up, as you say, to launch a national campaign next focussed on early childhood development. and it's all about

to 450 migrants who have now been taken here to dover , to the been taken here to dover, to the processing centre for border force at dover harbour. they were taken off nine small boats that first of those border force vessels arrived with cargo of migrant just after midnight last night. and then really as we got into the early hours this morning and into daylight the boats have kept on coming. now addition to the nine boats that have made it uk waters we're aware of several boats that try to make it. they've not been able to get to that line into uk waters and had to turn back. that's quite common part of it because these flimsy little inflatables with the low powered outboard , they often run out of outboard, they often run out of fuel or they don't have enough power to get the tides that are running in the channel as well and it forces them to return back to france. several vessels to return back to, as we speak .

to return back to, as we speak. boat has been spotted and is under escort by a french naval vessel. it is custom in practise for the french not to intervene to push the boats back to france. the french. that's too dangerous. it could result in loss of life . so they stand by loss of life. so they stand by at a sort reasonable distance and shut of these boats until or the either get to uk waters or they turn back. and if you get into the intervene. this vessel still out there at the moment we understand that the border force vessel defender is heading to the uk french demarcation line in the channel to wait to see that small boat makes across. but really this weather is pretty much closing in. we're told the weather conditions no in the middle of the channel, patrick, are worsening. there's only a short window less than a day but a chance for the people

smugglers who can read the winds and the tides now after years of pushing migrant boats out into the channel. they were waiting en masse to put these boats out. they've made it partially we were told that potentially up to a thousand migrants could be pushed into the water maybe close to that. of course , close to that. of course, because in addition to those vessels that had to turn back to france , another two on the beach france, another two on the beach near calais , the french police near calais, the french police got to and they punctured before they could into the water. the migrants have scattered back into the dunes but they'll just regroup. they'll get another and they'll try again another day . they'll try again another day. mark can i just ask as well as we understand that another boat is potentially the way being escorted to a particular by the french and then picked up by border force. you mentioned something to us yesterday . i'm something to us yesterday. i'm just keen to reiterate if people are just joining us that it relates to what happens when they get here. we know about they get here. so we know about they get here. so we know about the we've heard haven't the hotels. we've heard haven't we people . supposedly the

we about people. supposedly the reports are being kidnapped from those hotels . maybe a little bit those hotels. maybe a little bit more to. i just to move on a little bit. just talk to me about that . yes. so what about that. yes. so what happening with the 450 who've arrived today? there was another 440 arrived at the weekend. they were taken after they're initially checked out at the processing centre behind me in dover harbour. they're taken to manston airbase, which is just further down the coastline in kent. they're taking their to the proper processing for anything up to two or three days as detailed checks are taking place . and then they are place. and then they are accommodation usually and not at all satisfactorily as far as the government is concerned, they say they want to move away from this, but they are norm put in accommodation in hotels and of course people have been disappearing from hotels at a rate of knots. the story that

has been doing the rounds and a few of the newspaper was talking about children kidnapped from hotels . the information that hotels. the information that i've got from sources is suggest that perhaps that's a bit ways off the mark. it's not necessarily kidnappings , but necessarily kidnappings, but it's prearranged meetings to pick up . these people know pick up. these people know whether they were children not is another moot point because . is another moot point because. so many of those that come across authorities believe are actually told to lie about their age if they are in their late teens or early 2020s, they can get with passing as a child to see that because it guarantees them that they are into a system to parallel to the asylum system . but it makes it far more difficult for the authorities to return an undocumented child asylum seeker if that's what they are believed to be at end of the day. but i should say, patrick it's not just children and actually are the least of the ones who are disappearing

from hotel is pretty much a i would say the majority of albanians who are put into hotels asylum hotels go after about two or three days because for many of them they don't to enter the asylum system in the first place. they're coming here because they want to work in construction in car washes . many construction in car washes. many of them want to go and join up with criminal gangs and working cannabis farms. with criminal gangs and working cannabis farms . quite lucrative cannabis farms. quite lucrative for them if they can not to get arrested . they do that for six arrested. they do that for six months, a year and then they return to albie india with all the money they've made here . the money they've made here. mark, thank you very, very much. mark, thank you very, very much. mark why that home is called k2 reporting live to us from dover. now, just to summarise is going on there there is as mark understands anyway a boat currently on its way across the channel a small boat being escorted by the french and we are paying a lot of money to be picked up at the dividing line by british forces brought to

england to the uk where they will then be i suppose processed you could say puts hotels and mount was saying it is all too easy and all often the people are simply adults are simply lying about their age and saying that they are children and then it becomes very difficult . well, it becomes very difficult. well, if they do abscond, of course to keep tracks on them and that is i think especially personal when it comes the next story the because you're talking about now because you're talking about now because earlier today afghanistan seeker and convicted triple murderer hlongwane abdul ramzi who entered the uk posing as a child was sentenced to life imprisonment for the murder. 21 year old thomas in westminster immigration minister robert jenrick has promised a home office investigation into the misread flags which led to the fatal stabbing and indicated the age verification measures could be on the cards in an attempt to prevent such tragedy in future just summarised up a traffic free measures pretty basic stuff that be done these days is in

cases deemed to be against these people human right in this individual's . we had a fully individual's. we had a fully grown man who had already killed two people convicted of drug offences, been rejected from asylum , another country and asylum, another country and allowed to wander numerous different countries being different safe countries being put in a foster home in country fighting memphis street for money on the streets in of knives. he was flown to this on social media placed in a classroom full of children before to on murder. an before going to on murder. an aspiring royal marine whose human rights are we really protecting any he has protecting in any way? he has been that sentence today. been given that sentence today. we our southwest we can go now to our southwest of england reporter jeff moody. he's outside salisbury court for us. i was us. what abdul rahim, i was thank you very, very much. what is latest then? you is the latest there then? you want summarise it for want to just summarise it for us? sure . well, in his us? please sure. well, in his sentencing , the judge said that sentencing, the judge said that thomas roberts did wrong at all that night . thomas roberts did wrong at all that night. he was simply unlucky to be in the wrong place and at the wrong time. various mitigating circumstances were brought up in and the judge

addressed these directly , said addressed these directly, said that low on gain, abdul rahman ramzi would have trauma earlier in his growing up in afghanistan. he there can be no doubt of the effect of growing up in afghanistan and witnessing the horrors of the war there. he said. i accept his past life experiences have left him very damaged . how he react to other damaged. how he react to other people and to sentence but he said and he said this does have some effect his culpability but only to a very small extent there is extreme violence was wholly unjustified he goes on to say that he had gone out seeking trouble that night with a knife in his pocket . the 22nd, 26th. in his pocket. the 22nd, 26th. second argument that led to the tragedy was entirely of his own making . well, simon huckster, making. well, simon huckster, the senior investigator officer, spoke to us earlier this afternoon . thoughts are with the

afternoon. thoughts are with the family and loved ones , thomas family and loved ones, thomas roberts. and i want to thank them for the dignified way that they have conduct themselves throughout investigation and court . i would also like to court. i would also like to thank all those who talked police and the prosecutor and team who've worked tirelessly to achieve for tommy and his family . tommy family and loved ones suffered an unspeakable loss as a result of this horrific incident involving a knife . if incident involving a knife. if anyone out there believes someone is in a possession of a knife or offensive weapon . knife or offensive weapon. please contact the police immediately . matters relating to immediately. matters relating to the background and previous have been shared with relevant agencies to ensure appropriate

reviews are carried out and areas for learning. i identified . however, my focus and that of my teams for the last nine months has been to gather the evidence relating to the brutal murder of tommy and ensure that his killer has been to . justice his killer has been to. justice well before the sentencing, we heard some pretty harrowing victim statements, particularly from thomas's girlfriend , who from thomas's girlfriend, who talked about life. now as being trapped in an endless cycle of disbelief . well, he was disbelief. well, he was sentenced life in prison this and he will serve at least 29 years . thank and he will serve at least 29 years. thank you very much, and he will serve at least 29 years . thank you very much, jeff years. thank you very much, jeff moody. that i said crown court just reacting to what is i think really a flagship incident and one of which we hope we don't see any of. but i think the british public have a right to

be concerned that unfortunately we will. i'm going to go to the inbox quickly now, because lots of you've been in with of you've been in touch with your on this convicted your thoughts on this convicted asylum murdered an asylum seeker who murdered an aspiring royal marine. and john said, i'm very worried that one day i will witness a terrorist attack, a scale this country has never seen before. we're opening ourselves up to great when we let these asylum seekers in. let all these asylum seekers in. when our government going when is our government going to safeguard people first? safeguard british people first? and your fears suspect was it john? it was john. hour echoed right across the country the moment and it is a say to as i've said it before, i'll say again how many human rights were affected out the as affected out the moment as a result of this particular individual's human rights supposedly anyway being protected. of course with protected. he of course with a foster family, he was placed in classroom full of children. how many people were put out rest before he even went on to starve death in a spying role. maureen, joining me now, crime justice in policing commentator is danny short. danny, thank very short. danny, thank thanks very much. for coming into much. thank you for coming into the just that note, the studio. just that note,

clearly case highlighted, clearly this case highlighted, we do not if someone is, for example a double murderer convicted, drug offender. in fact , we can let them into fact, we can let them into classrooms with kids , into classrooms with kids, into a foster family and then on top of that as well, we have new reports coming out about people absconding or taken from hotels . british public have a right be concerned. absolutely i mean, it shows that the asylum and immigration system in the border system is broken. in essence . i system is broken. in essence. i mean, if you look at this particular case this was a failure . border staff at, the uk failure. border staff at, the uk border, that's things go wrong. first of all, this man was allowed into the uk. even he'd had an asylum claim reject it in norway he was allowed in even though his fingerprints were taken by the italian authorities and he claimed that he was a child when fact he was an adult . that has taken far long to resolve that particular dispute and the conviction that had for

his double murder in serbia. it looks as though that information not passed on to the uk authorities until he had tragically admitted this other murder and it's important to say this is obviously the absolute worst case scenario, it's difficult to imagine if you were to even just make up a worst case scenario, it's to imagine one as bad as this. but it is scenario nonetheless . when we scenario nonetheless. when we look at the numbers of people coming across and unfortunately, we're not sorting out border controls the moment, is controls at the moment, is reasonable to expect that something might happen something like this might happen again. as would hate again. as much as you would hate to crisis , for to say a wider crisis, for example, i mean, how do we gee, if i was going to ask a different question, why on earth would we paying this guy in would we paying for this guy in our for the next 29 our prisons for the next 29 years? well, that's the law he's committed a grave crime in britain , and therefore, he's britain, and therefore, he's he's put on trial. he's sentenced 29 year minimum term . sentenced 29 year minimum term. i'm not quite clear as to whether he'll serve all of that

here or if some of it will be served. serbia, where, of course, he was sentenced in his absence for double murder there. it's possible will be some agreement or some arrangement. the serbian authorities not clear about. but the main thing is now at least he is off the streets. he's in custody and he won't present a threat to any and anyone else in the community. but there was serious clear red flags which were not acted in this case, a failure by.the acted in this case, a failure by. the immigration and border authorities . and then he clearly authorities. and then he clearly hoodwinked the authorities into into thinking that he was a child and that took too long resolve. i mean, that could have been with much more quickly and he wouldn't have been in a school and he wouldn't have been in a position where he could have threatened the devastating truth about if i ask the truth about this is if i ask the question how many more people exactly guy are exactly like this guy are currently out there the currently out there in the streets, the answer, unfortunately, know. unfortunately, is we don't know. we don't how many. i mean, there will be we that the asylum system is creaking there are

150,000 applicant s waiting for their cases to be determined . their cases to be determined. some of them are staying in hotels . we've heard about the hotels. we've heard about the problems there when you've got children staying in hotels who are unaccompanied, some of them go missing . 200 at least are go missing. 200 at least are still missing . the whole system still missing. the whole system is really deluged with cases. if you tackle the backlogs and you've got a system that was sped and fair and affect, you've got a system that was sped and fair and affect , then sped and fair and affect, then these sorts of problems wouldn't exist. but it is the unfortunate truth for a lot of people who want to see our asylum backlog . want to see our asylum backlog. what would you so eliminate it really i suppose you could say is that the only way to do that is that the only way to do that is to ramp up the amount of people we deport. and it appears to be incredibly difficult to deport people. deportations have really slowed over the past five or six years, not just deportations of people whose asylum have failed, but deportation of foreign national offenders. people serious convictions in this country . the

convictions in this country. the numbers have dropped over the last few years. there there are some reasons for that which we can explain covid pandemic, etc. may travel difficult are the reasons do with the countries we're to send them to won't accept them . won't accept they accept them. won't accept they won't accept the documents option. but also there have been made about agreements with foreign countries to accept some of these people not enough those agreements and they haven't been enforced clearly enough. so there's a range of different problems, but it takes hard work, patrick, to tackle these problems , not soundbites. well, problems, not soundbites. well, this it , say problems, not soundbites. well, this it, say and i am getting this is it, say and i am getting sick and tired. i'm sure lots of people are. i've been sitting here every day and it feels like you're banging your head against a brick wall, doesn't it? but there go. look thank there we go. look danny, thank you much. appreciate coming you very much. appreciate coming into well. danny into the as well. that's danny shaw crime, justice shaw that who is crime, justice and commentator and policing commentator reacting that reacting anyway to that that came 29 years is the came to you 29 years is the minimum sentence for the asylum seeker who murdered a aspiring marine on the streets of this country. the first time country. not the first time he killed, course, as are well

killed, of course, as are well aware how, many more people, unfortunately, out there , unfortunately, are out there, this guy. and the answer is that we know would mean we don't know it would mean patrick on gb news. patrick christys on gb news. coming starmer has coming up, keir starmer has accused sunak's being accused rishi sunak's of being too the teams at too weak to sack the teams at home chancellor's home over the was chancellor's financial affairs . the hit financial affairs. the pm's hit back and find out what he back and we'll find out what he had to say very shortly. that's coming up after this central break .

break okay, welcome back. let's rock on because rishi sunak defended his handling of the themes of how he's tax conduct during today's pmqs. it came when labour leader sir keir starmer accused of being too weak to sack chancellor over his financial issues in question. it could , before i was prime could, before i was prime minister with record with regard

to the appointment . with regard to the appointment. with regard to the appointment. with regard to the appointment of the minister. without the usual appointments process was followed no issues no issues were raised with me. when he was appointed to his current and since i commented on this matter last week more information has come forward and that is why i have asked the independent adviser to look the matter. now i obviously can't prejudge the outcome of that, but it is right and it is right that we fully investigate this matter and establish all the facts , not. establish all the facts, not. well, joining me now is gb news political reporter olivia utley . there she is, olivia. yes. okay. i mean, is the teams are we dead in the water? well, at the moment , we dead in the water? well, at the moment, number 10 is not

actually throwing him out to the wolves . but rishi sunak is wolves. but rishi sunak is certainly to distance himself from the teams. certainly to distance himself from the teams . we last week he from the teams. we last week he was defending him to the hilt. now he's essentially saying, not my problem, guv. the investigation , his tax affairs investigation, his tax affairs happened before i was prime minister was told by the cabinet office that it was okay to appoint him. if there are further issues , then i'll leave further issues, then i'll leave that to the. i didn't what was going on. that's not great news for nadhim zahawi. i wouldn't say, but the prime minister has since that pmqs come out and said that the minister might not even sacked the zahawi, even if he's found have breached the ministerial code. there's been a change of rules, which means that the prime minister wouldn't be obliged to sack zahawi. so he cungs be obliged to sack zahawi. so he clings for now. and of course it must be remembered that the conservatives will have some problems if they lose their party chair the lead up to party chair in the lead up to the elections and indeed the local elections and indeed zahawi popular among

zahawi is pretty popular among mps and it's pretty charismatic with the members , although it with the members, although it could well be argued that he's more of a hindrance that help at this point as job is literally to go out on the media rounds and defend the conservative party, which pretty party, which is pretty difficult. position that difficult. and the position that he's moment point he's in at the moment point about pmqs olivia the public i think often say well there's a disconnect between ourselves and what's been going on in parlour months this highlights months and maybe this highlights that it was always tax that when it was always tax affairs not many of us 5 billion quid back the couch. quid on the back of the couch. do we. but is there a disconnect generally of the topics generally in terms of the topics they minister's they raise at prime minister's question time, what were some of the raised today? inbox the topics raised today? inbox is people well, is full of people going well, hang anyone say anything hang on. did anyone say anything about killer asylum seeker? about this killer asylum seeker? anything about what's on anything about what's going on in was in the channel there was something top. think something at the top. i think that thought that people will have thought was the big stories of was one of the big stories of the day. definitely yes. so keir starmer , actually it was it was starmer, actually it was it was rumoured beforehand that he would use all six of his allocated questions to talk about nadhim zahawi affair. about the nadhim zahawi affair. actually, used his first actually, he used his first three it may even have been

three or it may even have been four questions about . four questions to talk about. zara, horrific which zara, alina case horrific which has gripped the nation this week and the state of the probate services. the problem, of course, is that this man who went out and killed zara, alina , was on probation and was deemed a risk. that's a medium risk. and, of course, actually he was a high risk offender. and that did as though keir starmer was sort of hitting the nail on the head of the issues that really matter to the country. but yes, there is certainly a feeling that sometimes pmqs doesn't really reflect the wider concerns of great britain and to use end question to talk about the regime to how we affair which is in some ways a sort of one issue might been deemed by some as as not the most sensible use of his questioning . olivia, use of his questioning. olivia, thank you very much. and there the gb news reports that live from westminster getting some reaction to promises on the nadhim zahawi latest. well, i've got absolutely loads your way,

including i am asking you to get including i am asking you to get in touch. gbviews@gbnews.uk keep those emails coming in because going to be talking a lot about whether or not you think that killer of asylum seekers have got a full life he's got got a full life term. he's got a minimum 29 years. we're paying for case. jasmine, so for that case. and jasmine, so congratulations to taxpayer congratulations to the taxpayer also well asking it's not also as well asking it's not a prison theme going on here whether or not you think men should be allowed into women's prisons of the fact prisons in light of the fact that a now transitioning into that a is now transitioning into womanhood, who raped women that a is now transitioning into won be 1ood, who raped women that a is now transitioning into wonbe allowedo raped women that a is now transitioning into wonbe allowedo rapaj women that a is now transitioning into wonbe allowedo rapa women'snen will be allowed into a women's prison shocking stuff. prison. it's shocking stuff. going about all going to be talking about all that. your views coming in that. get your views coming in gb views, gbnews.uk. coming gb views, gbnews.uk. but coming up immediate future up in the immediate future anyway, rousing over long anyway, a rousing over how long foreign university students can stay the country without a job after the end of that course, apparently soon reported, the home secretary sort of. brafman wants to reform system so international pupils remain for just six months. that's from two years. she i think it's fair to say, views it as a bit of a back door immigration policy into britain. apparently the department for education is saying, you that

saying, whoa, you can't do that as an epic round kicking off. we'll to bottom of it we'll get to the bottom of it shortly. now have . for 32. shortly. but now have. for 32. the top story . the prime the top story. the prime minister has insisted due process is being followed regarding the former chancellor nadhim zahawi. tax affairs. no issues were raised with me when he appointed to a ministerial role. role at a heated pmqs earlier today, the labour leader accused rishi sunak of being too weak to the party chairman, sir keir said an mp who sought to avoid paying tax was not to be chancellor. mn has suggested it would have been politically expedient to sack mn zahawi instead , he's awaiting the instead, he's awaiting the findings of an investigation into the matter. the leader of his also his party chair both urged me and the government to appoint an independent adviser and now he objects for that independent adviser doing that

job. can't even tell with tax avoiders in his own cabinet yet . is he starting to wonder ? this . is he starting to wonder? this job is just too big for him . job is just too big for him. germany has confirmed it will supply 14 leopard to battle tanks to and will authorised their re—export from other countries , paving the way for countries, paving the way for others to follow suit. the united states is expected to pledge at least 30 of its abrams tanks later . the pledge at least 30 of its abrams tanks later. the kremlin has described the move as a blatant provocation and says us tanks in ukraine burn like all the rest . ukraine burn like all the rest. hundreds illegal migrants are attempting to cross the english channel today. attempting to cross the english channel today . gb news can channel today. gb news can reveal around 450 migrants have already been intercepted on nine small boats . after a break in small boats. after a break in the bad weather , several other the bad weather, several other small boats attempted to reach the kent coast but didn't make it into uk waters . a surge in it into uk waters. a surge in small boat arrivals had been

predicted today as the strong winds have been prevailing over recent . times have died down, recent. times have died down, but those winds have picked up again afternoon. those are your latest news headlines. you up to date on tv, online and radio with gb news. back in just a moment .

well we kick start with a catastrophic row that's erupted between the home office and department for education. over how long foreign university students can stay in the country without a job after the end of that course, that's once they finish their course. that's according the times. and it says the home secretary is trying to reform the system. so international pupils can't remain country of work remain the country out of work for the two years that they can

now . many people for the two years that they can now. many people think for the two years that they can now . many people think that's now. many people think that's just backdoor . now. many people think that's just backdoor. britain just a backdoor. britain basically new proposals, basically under new proposals, students will reportedly be allowed to stay in the uk for just months, but supposedly the department for education has kicked right and said no, we can't possibly have this. joining me now is the journalist from the who broke the story. who better go. so it's mark who better to go. so it's mark dayton you much. dayton. thank you very much. he's the affairs editor. he's the home affairs editor. the great stuff. well, the paper, great stuff. well, take this one for take you the bones. this one for me. is there a row. me. now, why is there a row. well, there's a row because the department believes that the graduate is a key factor in attracting international students , the uk and the type of students, the uk and the type of education is quite proud to have already met the government's targets , reaching 600 foreign targets, reaching 600 foreign students. but while that original target was by 2030. it meant that target almost two years ago and. it says that if you if you cut on the graduate route, it will make the uk much less attractive for foreign students to come here and study.

obviously opposed to that is the target by the home office to try reduce the number of foreign students coming to the country because they believe that reducing the number of foreign students could be quite an easy and quick way of reducing overall immigration , which overall immigration, which obviously is a very key target and pledge made by rishi sunak by the next election . yeah, how by the next election. yeah, how silly. i suppose this whole lives and dies by how much of a backdoor into brexit is it. if you come here to study and then can stay two years without a job job. exactly. and the latest figures published in november show that 60,000 students used well were issued with a graduate visa in year to september. so that shows you that there are tens of thousands of graduates using this route. and they will also of that some of them would have relatives dependants with them and that's almost a relatively small amount compared to the half a million net migration reached last year. but

the study one of around three or four proposals being considered by the home office and about department for education to reduce the number of foreign students coming to the uk. yeah, indeed. and i mean, look, it would make dent in it. and clearly immigration at least on paper or in the spoken in the house of commons is something that conservative is that a conservative party is supposed to about. and so supposed to care about. and so if this is a way that they can get those figures, one would have that suella have thought that suella braverman the braverman like to jump at the chance actually damage chance would actually damage britain being britain in terms it being an unappealing place to. come and study. i mean could argue you couldn't realistically couldn't either realistically not education it not about the education if it makes it's because makes it appealing, it's because it's appealing you stay it's less appealing you to stay on afterwards, get worse. on afterwards, not to get worse. education yes, that's the argument that the home office, some in the home office are saying is that six months is enough time for if a foreign to find job if they are going be adding to i guess the uk economy that's their argument the part of education argues that we need

to try and retain the talent coming to our country after we've sort of sold them the education. we may as well try and keep that talent after we've skilled and train them up and the department argues that we currently in line with most of our competitors, offering them the chance stay here for two years to try and find a job and the only outlier in that is the is the us which offers students yean is the us which offers students year. i'm not so that's the argument that the two departments are very far apart to be honest it's not overly surprising because the part of education would always argue in favour of more intensive students and the home office would always argue for fair money. if we just quickly. so i'm going to move on. but is it a money as far as the department of education are concerned? is it foreign students just a cash cow essentially, but not cow? essentially, yes, but not for government, for universities, because they argue that foreign students help to cross—subsidise onto other courses. so that would and the more argument is if you reduce the number of foreign students,

then might then universities might have to increase fees domestic increase their fees for domestic , got greater. increase their fees for domestic , got greater . well, increase their fees for domestic , got greater. well, thank you very much. my day denies the home affairs editor at the paper wrote that report in the times. do you make sure you go check out of row between the home out of that row between the home office and department for office and the department for education about well, basically how can stay in how long students can stay in the without a job? two years is a time isn't it two years a long time isn't it two years to find a job if you're skilled, intelligent, foreign student. now, you would have thought that would me now now, you would have thought that wcdiscuss me now now, you would have thought that wc discuss what me now now, you would have thought that wc discuss what this me now now, you would have thought that wc discuss what this policyne now to discuss what this policy would universities is would make the universities is nick he's the director nick hillman. he's the director of higher policy of the higher education policy institute . thank you very much, institute. thank you very much, nick. now, look, nick if these foreign students are coming here on getting a decent degree not a mickey degree, decent mickey mouse degree, a decent university, got university, and they've got a bit them are six months is bit about them are six months is long enough to find yourself a job, it . yes. that most of job, isn't it. yes. that most of them. well first of all, most international students who come to the uk, go home they don't actually stay here to work some do to stay to work and all do want to stay to work and all the evidence is they typically go into areas where there's a

massive shortage of skilled including the public sector but this they're not sitting for two years not doing anything what happensin years not doing anything what happens in these two years is they can do any job on any sort of contract if you are in the skilled worker migration category , there's all sorts of category, there's all sorts of other rules that kick , including other rules that kick, including lots of costs for employers who don't want to pay those costs . don't want to pay those costs. so what these two years, it doesn't mean these people are sitting around doing nothing, they don't come here to study for years and then just for three years and then just around two years those around for two years in those years, might be doing lots years, they might be doing lots of term contracts. of short term contracts. they might be on time limited contracts , their employers might contracts, their employers might be testing them out, and then converting them into the skilled worker . two years later. oh worker. two years later. oh yeah. and yes, some of them bnng yeah. and yes, some of them bring dependants with but you know, only some them are allowed to bring dependants with and they have to prove they've got enough money to look after those before they arrive in the

country . well, that's the country. well, that's the argument, isn't that a lot of people actually are bringing relatives over and using it as a backdoor into britain . yes it is backdoor into britain. yes it is the argument the reason it's off is the we've always had lots of chinese students, the chinese students typically here without dependents and go home again very quickly . well, it's very quickly. well, it's happenedin very quickly. well, it's happened in the past couple of years, been a really big increase in the numbers coming from india, nigeria, a pakistan, places like that. and they are more likely to bring dependents with them and more likely to want to stay here afterwards. but and large, those are all good things . talk to employers. good things. talk to employers. employers are crying out for skilled workers and can't get the staff they need currently. well, these highly skilled people who've chosen to come to our and want to work you know we should make use of them . well, should make use of them. well, yes, absolutely. nick, thank you very much. nick hillman, that director of the higher education policy wonder who policy is used. i wonder who

will win, ladies and gentlemen. well, profitability partner well, as profitability partner for that i for education. i remember that i was once in a seminar at the university of nottingham studying politics where it was me chinese people. none me and six chinese people. none of a word english at of whom spoke a word english at all. remarkably managed to get better grades in male. that probably says about me. the government spokesperson told the times. points based system times. our points based system is flexible is designed to be flexible according to the uk's needs, including attracting top class talent across the to talent from across the to contribute the uk's accent. contribute to the uk's accent. academic great and to help keep our universities competitive on the world stage. we keep all immigration policies under constant review to ensure they best serve the country and reflects the public's priorities . now that's out the way back to our top story, gb news can reveal hundreds of migrants have crossed the channel to reach the uk on small boats with hundreds more expensive before . the end more expensive before. the end of day and want to dip of the day and i want to dip back that because want to back into that because i want to dip my inbox. loads of dip back into my inbox. loads of you getting in touch. you have been getting in touch. gb views a gbnews.uk. when gb views a gbnews.uk. jenny when are going to get in charge are we going to get in charge that will the british

been sentenced today actually to a of 29 years in prison. a minimum of 29 years in prison. a of you in my inbox saying a lot of you in my inbox saying what you have to do. he's got full life term, but we're moving from that now. more on commissioner raleigh's mission to root out corruption misconduct in the police force. he assembly, he told the london assembly, police police crime police crime, police and crime committee, sorry that most more metropolitan officers metropolitan police officers expected appear in court each expected to appear in court each week to face criminal charges in the coming months. and it follows a flurry of scandals clouding trust in police forces, including last week's exposure of pc david carrick as one of the country's most prolific rapists. joining me now in the studio gb news is national reporter ellie costello. thanks very much. good to have you in the studio . this is a huge task the studio. this is a huge task is to get trust back in the met. yes. what a stunning from some growly this morning in front of the police and crime committee essentially saying that for the next few months are going to see 2 to 3 police officers in court every single week facing criminal charges . mean that is

criminal charges. mean that is stark, isn't it ? and that is how stark, isn't it? and that is how he opened that session this morning. but he is very transparent about that , that transparent about that, that they need to root out these rogue police officers. but he did warn us that were going to be much more of these of cases to come down track, i'm afraid. and he open that session this morning talking about david carrick didn't he wasn't asked any questions. it he just said, can ican any questions. it he just said, can i can i speak about this can i give a statement and david carrick is of course officer who has pled guilty to 49 offences, including 20 counts of rape against 12 women spanning two decades as a serving metropolitan police officer . and metropolitan police officer. and so mike rowley was saying , so mike rowley was saying, talking about the appalling criminality of david carrick and he said there are hundreds of police officers that shouldn't be here , which was very open. be here, which was very open. again, he his apologies the victims and he spoke about action he's promised action especially on women and building trust up for women in the

metropolitan police force which i think many of us can agree is very. he did speak about operation onyx as well, which basically that any historical of sexual misconduct or domestic by a police officer that has already been investigated is to be looked at again to make sure they got the decision right. because the case of david carrick , they didn't. he carrick, they didn't. he continued to be as a metropolitan police officer whilst these allegations surrounded him so pretty open from sir mike rowley and this what he had to say about the cleaning up of the metropolitan police. you will see progress from us step by step as we chase more trust, less crime and high standards, which i'm focusing on here here . we must improve here here. we must improve dramatically for london london . dramatically for london london. but lifting stone and revealing painful truths will not be resolved overnight . and i resolved overnight. and i mustn't . it will do. and i hope mustn't. it will do. and i hope you understand that that can't

be done . we have to prepare more be done. we have to prepare more painful stories as we confront the issues that we face. we've we've discussed before sort of the systemic failings that , the systemic failings that, create these problems of officers, of character, integrity . and as we put in more integrity. and as we put in more resource more assertive tactics , as we are more open to people reporting incidents to us from within and from without the organisation as we more determined to take these cases , determined to take these cases, it will tackle the problems that we face. but it won't it won't be rapid . it we face. but it won't it won't be rapid. it will be we face. but it won't it won't be rapid . it will be painful we face. but it won't it won't be rapid. it will be painful in that context . we need your that context. we need your support and, the support of people of london . please don't people of london. please don't lose heart . we confront these lose heart. we confront these issues as we do necessary, painful work to confine to confront those and rid the organisation of those. corrupt our integrity . we'll have a go. our integrity. we'll have a go. that was an astonishing statement, really. but this it's

emerged that a police officer attached for a north london school has admitted child sexual offences . while the timing of offences. while the timing of this hearing is really significant as we just received the latest really on of pc hussain charb he pled guilty to child sex yesterday he's a serving metropolitan police officer actually stationed a school at the moment . he school at the moment. he admitted four counts of sexual activity with a girl aged between 13 and 15, three counts of making indecent photograph of a child and sexual communicates with a child as well. he be sentenced in march . he did go sentenced in march. he did go through a vetting , but because through a vetting, but because it had actually hadn't been reported as a crime yet, of course it didn't. snuck up on the system. this is exactly what sir mark rowley is talking about, that in order to drain the swamp if you like. it is to look lot worse before it gets look a lot worse before it gets any better. and i think very much ellie costello our national reporter. gosh, right . well, reporter. gosh, right. well, we're moving away from that now because the princess wales is

geanng because the princess wales is gearing up to launch a major campaign help young children campaign to help young children their chances. she's their life chances. she's believed to have called on experts from the board make experts from the board to make people aware of the importance of childhood . all gb news of early childhood. all gb news reports to come. walker joins live from windsor. cameron it's got a lot of talk because the last time i spoke to and what's been going on that was happening yet patrick a looked darker and cold and rainy as well i'm afraid . but yes, the princess of afraid. but yes, the princess of wales has been inside the castle not outside four projects already. she's been working for over a decade now and it's about how the first five years of a child's life can really dramatically their life chances more. what i mean by that that for example is if a child has a bad in life, the chances of having mental health problems , having mental health problems, unemployment's homelessness and so on dramatically does go up. so the princess has met eight experts. she's appointed eight experts. she's appointed eight experts to her panel. and she met them at windsor castle to say really come up with some

kind of strategy to attempt to tackle this. and yesterday i spoke one of those experts, a doctor allan gregory. he told me the princess is really keen to try and tackle particularly the social and developing issues to do with children in the united kingdom is an enormous personal commitment from the princess of wales and it is a highly well informed, intelligent one. she really understood the science behind all this and really is committed to making a big difference to everyone's lives . difference to everyone's lives. now, the princess constitutionally has to be non—political , but for her it's non—political, but for her it's about raising and every question . what is the state of provision 7 . what is the state of provision ? early childhood development in the uk ? not great, according to the uk? not great, according to one experts i spoke to last at nursery in luton, which princess was visiting, and neil lynn, the chief exec of years alliance.

and he told me that 5000, more than 5000 early years providers been forced to shut in the last 12 months. that's partly due to a lack of government funding . a lack of government funding. now, the royal foundation, which looks after the prince and princess of wales, is charity work they appointed work they have appointed a former downing street adviser to , david cameron, who leads this childhood project with , the childhood project with, the princess of wales. it was launched in 2021, the princess has been to denmark to see how they do things their to do with childhood development. they're seen as a world leader in this field . and as you mentioned at field. and as you mentioned at the start, patrick, it's understood that the princess is launching big national campaign next week and it's expected very much to be legacy . cameron much to be legacy. cameron walker , you very much in there walker, you very much in there outside it very much not inside. unfortunately in windsor for i suppose if you're around the area maybe they come in like a scarf or a hot drink or something. blessed me. looks freezing doesn't see it that way. all right. so to on

failure to sack him. the whole country could see what's going on shows. how hopelessly weak he is. a prime minister overseeing chaos, overwhelmed every turn. he can't say what ambulances will get to. heart attack victims . he will get to. heart attack victims. he can't say will get to. heart attack victims . he can't say whether victims. he can't say whether the prison system will keep street again. he can't tell. with tax avoiders in own cabinet . is he starting to wonder if this job is just too big for him? yeah . well, in his away him? yeah. well, in his away from home ukraine has welcomed germany's decision . send 14 germany's decision. send 14 leopard 2 two tanks to ukraine with the united states expected to pledge at least 30 advanced battles. tanks later . president battles. tanks later. president volodymyr zelenskyy says he's sincerely grateful . germany's sincerely grateful. germany's commitment. the chancellor olaf scholz authorised other countries to send their vehicles to following weeks of international pressure. he says it's the decision in the face of

aggression and urged his country to trust him and. the government. the kremlin responded, describing the decision a blatant provocation saying us tanks in ukraine burn like the rest here . hundreds of like the rest here. hundreds of illegal migrants are attempting cross the english channel once today. gb news exclusively reveal around 450 migrants have already been intercepted on nine small boats. after a break, bad weather. several other small boats attempted to reach the kent coast today but didn't make it into uk waters . a surge in it into uk waters. a surge in small boat arrivals had been predicted for today as strong winds had died down briefly before picking up once again this afternoon . the met police this afternoon. the met police commissioner has apologised to the public and says painful stories will, as two or even three officers face criminal court appearances each and week. that says the force attempts to

root out of corrupt officers somewhat rarely has apologised . somewhat rarely has apologised. the victims of the former officer david carrick, who pleaded guilty to 49 criminal charges, including 24 counts of rape . i think we failed rape. i think we failed investigators where we should have been more intrusive and join the dots over his misogyny over decades and as leaders our mindset should have been more determined to spot and root out such a misogynist . so as to say such a misogynist. so as to say i apologise to his victims and i want to say sorry to all the women across london who feel let down this and whose trust in policing is shaken by this . the policing is shaken by this. the funeral of 26 year old elle edwards was fatally shot outside pub on the world on christmas has taken place today in wallasey. ms. edwards was out with friends when a gunman opened fire shortly before midnight. she isn't believed to

that we've had in decades. and i think when workers have nothing to lose, you see them out fighting . now, let's just bring fighting. now, let's just bring some breaking news we're receiving in the last moments here at gb news we're hearing that us president joe biden has said the us will be sending 31 abrams tanks to ukraine and the us will train ukrainian troops to use them as soon as possible. that coming of course on the back of the news that the german chancellor olaf scholz has given the go ahead for leopard 2 tanks 14 of them to be sent ukraine as well. more detail on that coming in the next half hour. patrick gb news reveal almost 500

migrants have crossed the channel to reach the uk on small boats, with hundreds more expected potentially anyway before . the of the day. the before. the end of the day. the poor weather some the poor weather taking some of the pressure off rishi sunak's government after the prime minister tough on those minister to get tough on those abusing the uk's immigration system. i'm going to get stuck straight ahead and go live now to dover gb news his home to dover wood gb news his home security why has security editor. mark, why has a bit of intel that came through which suggested it today was potentially to record potentially going to be a record day? time spoke to you, day? last time i spoke to you, mark, understood there was mark, we understood there was another way in the another boat on its way in the channel escorted by channel being escorted over by the updates ? yeah the latest the any updates? yeah the latest on that is thought to port lord appear to have been picked up by the french and is now returning back to france. having said that though another small boat appeared in the waters in french waters the moment trying to make it to sort of demarcation line to uk waters . it seems that it to sort of demarcation line to uk waters. it seems that many boats that have crossed today, just as many haven't actually

made it now . not unusual. it's made it now. not unusual. it's tough going for these flimsy little inflatable with very small and power outboard motors attached to them to try to get across with, you know, quite strong that are going through the channel. it's flat out there today, but it's still, as i say, tough going in. it's not unusual tough going in. it's not unusual to see a significant percentage of the boats that leave the french beach trying to get to the uk , eventually having to the uk, eventually having to turn round because you just can't make it any further. they out of fuel or whatever problem is and then the return france. but having said nine boats have made it across so far today with more than 450 migrants on board taken to that processing centre at dover harbour. initially for those initial checks before, then going to on the main processing base down the road at

manston in kent where they'll be held for two or three days before , then of course being before, then of course being shipped out usually to hotel accommodation . and as they await accommodation. and as they await more semi or permanent accommodation , even as they wait accommodation, even as they wait will be undoubtedly a long process of trying to determine whether asylum claims are legitimate or not. mark, you've been there day and the weather to have broken some of course now it's getting darker and presumably a bit colder as well. but yes , fact is that they're but yes, fact is that they're showing no sign of is it, despite the fact that it's a year and rishi sunak pledging to get tough. this is still happening . yeah well we've , happening. yeah well we've, heard it from the prime minister. this is a top priority. he wants to grips with the small boat crisis . but today the small boat crisis. but today has shown absolutely that any time there's a break in the you'll get a surge in small boats coming. they've not been

able to do it really for many days over the past couple of months , unlike year, november months, unlike year, november actually was a month of the year last year. this november and december were very bad in the channel that's continued into january . so channel that's continued into january. so since january is the fastest been a few days. the has been whether that's about possible for these boats to come today much better . that's why today much better. that's why we're getting high numbers again today. and the last support to come in to dover was about an hour an, hour and a half ago. and it's that border force vessel was carrying the occupants of two small boats, about 100 people that were plucked from the middle of the engush plucked from the middle of the english channel and taken here to harbour. and as i see, just goes to show that, you know, whatever rishi rishi sunak might about the government's determination and actually whatever the implement it will not be quick and it will be

simple because . they can be more simple because. they can be more effective in terms of the operations in the channel in other words, identifying the boats as they come across and up those on board boats, but actually trying to the people smuggling gangs on the other side of the channel is much more difficult. the national crime agency is working ever more closely with the french colleagues, but it's a lucrative business. the criminal gangs are highly organised now . they have highly organised now. they have a ready supply boats coming from china . they go to turkey and china. they go to turkey and then are shipped to germany for onward transfer all to france where they're assembled and sent across . there's no shortage of across. there's no shortage of suppues across. there's no shortage of supplies there's no shortage of criminals willing to take up an enterprise on a good week connect the many of pounds . connect the many of pounds. exactly mark. and as you were talking there, we were playing some footage that came to us about an hour ago anyway of those boats that you were those very boats that you were talking those very people you talking of those very people you were in of the

were talking. and in of the story that i'm going to cover next, which is about this seeker who convicted of a double who was convicted of a double murder different country , murder in a different country, drug came over here, drug dealing came over here, pretended to a child was in a school with british kids did go on to murder and royal marine as well. mark, the public i think now more than ever have a right to be concerned about safety given what is going on in the channel down that well, one of the biggest issues , i think as the biggest issues, i think as far as the authorities are concerned is they just don't a handle on who is across because the way in which people smuggling operation works is that the people gangs the criminal gangs tell those coming across that the best way to ensure the most favourable outcome in the asylum process is clearly to have a good and a strong story and that will often require them . as far as the require them. as far as the people smugglers are concerned throwing away passports, other

mobile phones , we've captured mobile phones, we've captured images of them doing just that late last year, tossing their mobile phones into the channel now that doing that endeavour makes it so much more difficult for authorities here to try to bottom out who these people , if bottom out who these people, if they are coming from the country they are coming from the country they say they're coming from, if they say they're coming from, if they are the age they say they are, what the back story is and you're facing that kind of difficult ante in trying to get that background information on individuals, then it is very at the end of the day to determine whether someone has a legitimate claim to asylum and often what the authorities here will is to air on the side of the asylum seeker if there is no evidence to the contrary. but regardless of what they do, there's a huge logjam because of the of people who've have been coming across 46,000 last year and the

authorities expecting the pattern show for another significant surge in small boat arrivals year depending of course on weather that's the one saving grace for this government really is the weather over the last few months they would have been much more pressure on rishi sunak on his government. been much more pressure on rishi sunak on his government . well, sunak on his government. well, exactly. look, mark, thank you very . marathon stint for very. and a marathon stint for us there in dover. it's now home and added to why has and security added to why has been you exclusive been bringing you live exclusive reporting from the numbers of people who've making way people who've been making way across today at across the channel today at least nine small boats potentially under one on the potentially under the one on the way well, course, it way as. well, and of course, it does come into doesn't say does all come into doesn't say after afternoon asylum after this afternoon asylum seeker stopped aspiring royal seeker he stopped aspiring royal marine to death was sentenced to life imprisonment murder a minimum of 29 years. lots of questions about that. a lot of you getting in touch saying do you getting in touch saying do you have to do to get a full life term? are we, the life term? why are we, the british taxpayer, paying for it to be in prison? well, afghan killer gain, abdul ramzi killer lwanga gain, abdul ramzi was he to the uk was entered. he went to the uk posing a child will spend at

least nine years behind bars for murder of 21 year old thomas roberts . the killer was on the roberts. the killer was on the run from murder in serbia when he arrived in the uk, but his violent past went gb news is south—east of england. reports of jeff moody was the courtroom dunng of jeff moody was the courtroom during the sentencing . in his during the sentencing. in his sentencing this afternoon , judge sentencing this afternoon, judge said thomas roberts did nothing wrong. that night. he was simply unlucky to be in the wrong place at the wrong time . he went on to at the wrong time. he went on to address some the mitigating circumstances that have been presented in court. he said that lounging abdul rahim i would have suffered trauma earlier in his life growing up in afghanistan, he said there can be no doubt of the effects , the be no doubt of the effects, the horrors of growing up in. and he said i accept that his past life experiences have left him very damaged has affected how he reacts to certain situations and the judge said that this does have some effect on his culpability but only to a small

extent extreme violence is wholly unjustified . he went out wholly unjustified. he went out seeking trouble with a knife in his belt the 26 second argument that led to his tragedy was entirely of his own making . entirely of his own making. well, simon huxley, the senior investigating officer, spoke us earlier on this afternoon. this what he had to say. thoughts are with the family and loved ones of roberts . and i want to thank of roberts. and i want to thank them for the dignified way that they have conducted throughout they have conducted throughout the investigation and court proceedings . i would also like proceedings. i would also like to all those who dorset police and the prosecution team who've worked tyler slee to achieve justice for tommy and his family , tommy's family and, loved ones have suffered and speak of loss as a result of this horrific incident involving a knife . if

incident involving a knife. if anyone out there believes someone is in possession of a knife offensive weapon , please knife offensive weapon, please contact police immediately . matt contact police immediately. matt is relating to the defendant's background and previous convictions have been shared with relevant agencies to appropriate reviews are carried out and for learning. identify it. however my focus and that of my teams. the last nine months has been to gather the evidence relating the brutal murder of tommy and ensure that his has been brought to with the absolutely shocking stuff. unbelievable yes. and i can't help but feel as though doing it to ourselves. and i can't help but feel as well that various different news outlets out there who are as far as i can see at the minute, not really reporting

on this. maybe if they highlighted the with as highlighted the issue with as much to much vigorously due to apparently this thing apparently covering this thing up will be done up there maybe more will be done about me now is about it. but joining me now is beunda about it. but joining me now is belinda lucy, former brexit belinda de lucy, former brexit party mep and crucially a mum of four belinda final is four and belinda that final is of relevance because this of direct relevance because this is that want to is something that i want to bnng is something that i want to bring much attention to as bring as much attention to as possible this show. we possible on this show. we currently in this country, belinda, no idea how many belinda, have no idea how many fully men with potentially criminal pasts are opposed as children having come across channel or any other route into britain and are sitting in classrooms with teenage or younger girls. and that is a scandal , is younger girls. and that is a scandal, is it not? oh it's a complete scandal, but it's an utter betrayal. and it's the conservative party who are to a lot for this. there have been loop holes for years over our asylum system being abused and the conservative party have done nothing about it whatsoever. you know , if one of my children had know, if one of my children had to sit in a class next to an aduh to sit in a class next to an adult male pretending to be a

child, i mean, it's orwellian where they tell you to believe the evidence in front of eyes. these, these men especially, shouldn't even be to apply for asylum if they come to this country with documents whatsoever . it's not just about whatsoever. it's not just about the adults posing as children, which is utterly unbelievable. it is about the men coming here claiming their refugee is throwing their passports away . throwing their passports away. they should be rejected automatically because it's a gift for criminals. our country is a gift for criminals all over the world to come here and start a new life. there was a line that came out yesterday, shockingly underreported. i can hardly see anywhere now about who were saying that they were parents, teenage girls in the where this triple killer was, who daughters were coerced into allegedly sending in photographs that has gone massively underreported . it has been underreported. it has been brushed under the carpet right now. huge human rights are more important at the minute in this

country. and the likes of this triple killer or, the likes of your daughter. well, there's a certain version of liberalism really infected the machinery at the heart of westminster they're the heart of westminster they're the open borders type . you see, the open borders type. you see, the open borders type. you see, the world is just a landmass of buyers and sellers and see no value in national solid solidarity or social democracy or the safety of our . those are or the safety of our. those are all things they're to sacrifice just so that they get to open the borders good about themselves and also grow the economy. i mean, it was interesting, wasn't patrick earlier this month, philip, former tory mp , actually let the former tory mp, actually let the cat out of the bag and in an interview explained wonderful mass immigration was and how goodit mass immigration was and how good it would be for the and unfortunately i think this is what a lot of westminster believes the civil service sees migrants as economic figures . migrants as economic figures. the black market lends gives this country the black market lends gives this countr y £200 billion a this country £200 billion a yean this country £200 billion a year. so there is this motivation for government to

allow everyone. it is the safety of the pup. yeah, exactly. look for what it's worth, obviously, as we all know, the line is, wow, look, we're doing everything that we can. we're looking at the lessons learned. yeah and not just in terms them doing all they can from i'm sitting something that they could do be to go okay right . sitting something that they could do be to go okay right. no more asylum seekers allowed into schools unless they are very obviously children. that would just be a safety mechanism . just be a safety mechanism. surely. would you support that? lee anderson said detention centres indefinitely ? pretty centres indefinitely? pretty much. what about a on people going into schools ? a 100. you going into schools? a 100. you know, our children are at risk anyway in this modern age that they're having so many safety barriers removed from them by progressive liberals and now they're wanting adult males to mix them in the classroom. strangers could be killers, rapists, criminals , but also rapists, criminals, but also it's only tinkering the government needs to do much, much more than this. i'm pretty

keeps blaming blaming the civil service. oh, it's the civil pushing back. it's the ministry of justice not letting us deliver what the people voted for. well, who governs who? and if the conservatives can't that civil service, then the point in even voting conservatives the civil servants are unaccountable . they are a lot to blame for this . at my horrific premonition this. at my horrific premonition for the future. is that unfortunate ? going to get a lot unfortunate? going to get a lot more of this and i hate to say it, but when you look at the numbers across even just a small percentage, even just a small percentage, even just a small percentage of absolute wrong is like this individual. now is still a lot of people and still to many people. belinda, thank you very much. going to leave it there. belinda lacey, former there. belinda de lacey, former brexit mep mum of brexit party mep and mum of four. i can only imagine horror of parents rise across the country now. thank you. who send their children off to school and wonder what is this? 40 year old man doing in my kid's math class? anyway, you're with me. patrick christys on. coming up earlier, the met commissioner made shocking revelations that

several his own officers will several of his own officers will face charges as part face criminal charges as part of his root his mission to root out corruption critic .

welcome back. now several met police officers face criminal charges as part of a bid to rid the force of corruption. that is according to commissioner sir mark rowley, who say he's determined to deal with misconduct within the ranks. it follows flurry of scandals clouding public trust in police forces, including week's exposure of . pc david carrick as exposure of. pc david carrick as one of the country's most prolific rapist. joining me in the studio right now is gb news national reporter ellie

costello. ellie this is a huge task to try to rebuild trust in the matter, isn't it? yes and it's a stunning admission , it's a stunning admission, really, from the commissioner of the met police, sir mark rowley , saying that 2 to 3 officers will be in a criminal court every single week facing criminal charges. now, if you put that on average for a year , put that on average for a year, that's about 130 officers, which gives us an indication quite how big this task is. i mean, it is still a small percentage. and when talk about a few bad apples, it's more than that, but it is still there are 35,000 police officers in the metropolitan police right now. so it is important to keep those in context . but so it is important to keep those in context. but sir mark, broadly speaking, today being very open and honest about challenges in front of him he said there are hundreds of in policing that simply be there. he said he felt sorry for the metropolitan police's failings up until this point and he knows he's got to on the trust of the

pubuc he's got to on the trust of the public especially women and girls . he has public especially women and girls. he has promised action and he says there's going to be and he says there's going to be a ruthless rooting out for all those who question his integrity. and he did speak about operation on it. so project on how we like to call , project on how we like to call, which is basically going over any claim of sexual misconduct by a police officer, even if they've already been investigated, they're going go over them again to make the right decision was made because in the case of david carrick, for example, he was investigated and to serve as metropolitan officers, they're going to go through every single historical case over thousand of them. well, earlier spoke to susan hall, who's the chairman of the police and crime committee and. she told me how important it is that we restore trust in the met. we need to go back to the days when everybody would say , days when everybody would say, if , go and find a if you're lost, go and find a police officer. if frightened, go and find a police officer. i still would. i still have faith in the police . but we need to in the police. but we need to make sure other people do and especially younger people, these

days. so that's where like us to get to i'm sure it's where some rally would like to us get to and i have confidence that given time we will but as i've said, i think will get worse before they get better. if you had a daughter , would you be confident daughter, would you be confident in telling them to go up to a police officer if they ever found in trouble? i do have a daughter . i found in trouble? i do have a daughter. i would found in trouble? i do have a daughter . i would absolutely daughter. i would absolutely tell her to go to a police officer . she was tell her to go to a police officer. she was in trouble. i think twice about that . and i've think twice about that. and i've got granddaughters and i tell them the same. the police are inherently very good people. there's a few more than a few, unfortunately , are bad apples. i unfortunately, are bad apples. i had that several. he and his team will make sure are removed by police force . yeah i mean, by police force. yeah i mean, it's a desperately awful situation , obviously, and situation, obviously, and unfortunately it gets worse, doesn't it ? today there was doesn't it? today there was right on cue, obviously. another shocking case, wasn't it? yeah, literally just minutes before

this hearing started this morning we had the latest news this is of pc hussain chap and he guilty to child sex offences yesterday he's a serving metropolitan police officer who's actually stationed at a school in enfield in london and he pled to four counts of sexual assault activity with a girl age between 13 and 15. three counts of making indecent photographs of making indecent photographs of a child and sexual with a child so he will be sentenced in march. now the met say there's no evidence that this criminality linked to his role at the school but he had actually been vetted and because those crimes hadn't yet been reported to the police of it didn't flag up on the system. but this is exactly what sir mark rowley is talking about. but are going to have this draining of the swamp, if you like, all of these cases going to come out in the next few and months. and unfortunately is going a lot worse before going to look a lot worse before . better. ali, . it gets any better. ali, thanks very ellie costello. there are national reports he's been over that story today

been all over that story today for you would patrick for you would mean patrick christys gb news loads more christys on gb news loads more to come way and final half to come way and the final half hour of show so don't you dare move the decision place move the decision to place a trans gender woman man convicted raping two women while was a man in a women's prison. it's a minefield this seems to have been given the seal of approval from a senior member. the scottish parliament is absolutely astonishing a nutshell. a man, right. two women transitions into womanhood whilst on trial, despite keeping all of his male genitalia and will end up in a women's prison. the world has gone mad. more on next with kelly j. the fabulous tiger came first. it's your latest news headlines. don't move, people . patrick, thank move, people. patrick, thank you. and the top stories this hour. you. and the top stories this hour . prime you. and the top stories this hour. prime minister has insisted due process is being followed . former chancellor followed. former chancellor nadhim zahawi , tax affairs nadhim zahawi, tax affairs claiming issues were raised with me . he said when a point when he

countries . their tanks are the countries. their tanks are the most capable tanks in the world and they're also extremely complex to operate and maintain . so we're also giving ukraine the parts and equipment necessary effectively sustain these tanks on the battlefield. when we began will began to train ukrainian troops on issues of sustainment logistic and maintenance soon as possible , maintenance soon as possible, delivering these tanks to the fields going to take time, time that we'll see. we'll use make sure the ukrainians are fully prepared to integrate the abrams tanks into defences . russian tanks into defences. russian reaction to that statement and the kremlin kremlin's described it as a blatant provocation . in it as a blatant provocation. in other news today, a 61 year old man has been arrested on of assaulting the former health secretary hancock on the london underground british transport police say they received a report that a man had been yesterday morning. the suspect remains in custody and enquiries are ongoing . those latest are ongoing. those latest headunes are ongoing. those latest headlines , you are up to date on

headlines, you are up to date on tv, online and dab, plus radio with gb news. stay .

us okay people . scotland's justice okay people. scotland's justice secretary has expressed faith in the scottish service's decision to place transgender woman convicted of raping two women while . he was a man in a women's while. he was a man in a women's prison. to be honest with you , prison. to be honest with you, difficult for me to say all of that actually, all the prison began her transition, his transition become a woman after being found guilty of two rapes as a man currently being held in as a man currently being held in a segregated unit in stirling women's prison. will be up to officials which gendered he will be incarcerated . with me now is be incarcerated. with me now is kelly keane, founder of standing for women . kelly, this is an

for women. kelly, this is an absolute shocker on quite literally struggle to say the words not because of any fear of misgendering anyone just because apparently political correctness gets in the way of all this nonsense. so we have a who raped . two women and then transitioned into womanhood. womanhood during a trial who's now going to be in a women's prison , have woken up and gone prison, have woken up and gone to how shocked i'm to tell you. i'm absolutely shocked that somebody convicted two violent, grotesque would then call themselves woman to try and get into a woman prison. i mean, it's hilarious because it's preposterous . but actually, for preposterous. but actually, for those women in those prisons, it must be scary as hell. do you think that right at the core of this , there is something that this, there is something that thinks that. well female convicts don't have rights ? i convicts don't have rights? i think must be somewhat some of

that attitude to women who end up in prison . i don't think we up in prison. i don't think we do care about prisoners much at all. you know, most of us would to see presidents rehabilitated and coming back into society as better citizens and than when they went into prison. i don't think that actually is prisons achieve in this country. i they're overcrowded. they're underfunded . and often they're a underfunded. and often they're a little bit too weirdly easy and bizarre ways. but they don't seem to do the job, but they're certainly not doing the job. when you allow someone i mean, any man in a woman's prison, as far as i'm concerned, is an absolute no. i don't care what they've done. you're born male. you commit a crime, you go into a man's prison. end of story. however to then sort of do it in the first place is grotesque. but to send someone convicted of crimes violent sexual crimes against women and, you know, just for a pink handbag, a bad

coat and a terrible wig he can now go into a women's prison is preposterous. but but is literally that though isn't it? it's a wake on it's a frock ism bag and a change of from the original, which is adam graham, which i think is probably the name that i'm going to continue to use throughout the course of now. what would you say to trans rights campaigners and the age are which refusal to recognise someone gender may constitute a violation of the rights act . violation of the rights act. gosh where to start? what would i say to them? i'd probably start with grow up and but but you girl pants on it's just grow up it's just come on we're not falling for it. most people appued falling for it. most people applied to truthful in issue and they will say it how people in power and authority who are

supposed to be paid a good salary for doing a good job, get away with such idiocy . i am just away with such idiocy. i am just staggered . i used to think when staggered. i used to think when i was younger. i couldn't possibly be an mp because i'm not qualified and now, every day of the week i think i'm massively overqualified for such a role because there is a big political angle to this as the gender recognition bill is going through and we told constantly about numerous different things in this country, by the way, but we're told, oh, well, don't worry, this kind will worry, this kind of thing will be an this case be an outlier. this case scenario situation will almost never bingo , we are male rapist never bingo, we are male rapist in a woman's. does this bill make any likely that this stuff will happen on the rack ?100. will happen on the rack? 100. the gender recognition act in the united kingdom, when they were debating it back in the nineties , probably before you nineties, probably before you were born, patrick when they were born, patrick when they were debating it back in the nineties. norman talked about

the danger of these men and prisons. and he was treated as if he was saying the most ridiculous thing anybody had ever heard that would never happen. and in scotland. there are more men per capita serving time as women than there are in england and wales. time as women than there are in england and wales . we're doing a england and wales. we're doing a little bit better in england and wales and scotland are just that diving head into the most ludicrous of all situations with that gender reform bill. and i think we should just get rid of all of it altogether. there is no such thing, far as i'm concerned, as a sex. get very, very quickly kelly so to put the squeeze on you on this situation what you back some kind of pubuc what you back some kind of public vote on this because is where it all falls down for me. you have a of a percentage of people for whom they actually really care this. an even really care about this. an even smaller are smaller percentage who are bonkers makers, bonkers decision makers, somewhat argue in various different our different houses of our political forums this country political forums in this country making decisions public vote making the decisions public vote would miss out pound. would not miss out the pound. not would, but women's

not a public would, but women's groups would have be given the opportunity to because we are all too often silenced . but yes, all too often silenced. but yes, all too often silenced. but yes, a public vote . kelly, thank you a public vote. kelly, thank you very much. as i have now found out standing for women right. moving on from that, i've got any time to do this, but important stuff. prince harry has set more one record with his debut memoir. yes, has set more one record with his debut memoir . yes, that's right. debut memoir. yes, that's right. while sparing jones's accolade of fastest selling non—fiction book of all his popularity, especially in the us, is moving quickly in the opposite direction. you hate say it in an exclusive poll for newsweek magazine results that prince harry had dropped a whopping five points in public opinion in the us, while meghan had dropped 36 points. the in popularity coincided with release of harry's memoir and various bombshell interviews. the netflix documentary don't bring it up. | netflix documentary don't bring it up. i told your people, bring up the fact that i was in anyway. joining me now live from the states is royal expert kinsey schofield. kinsey, they about as popular as novichok

over that are night. i remember heanng over that are night. i remember hearing your voice on that documentary. patrick and i got goose bumps. but, you know, they could learn a lot from. the royal family less is more. this the i think this is the result overexposure. and you know, they're way too much they're sharing way too much information did not know need to know the elizabeth know about the elizabeth arden cream etc. so i think cream etc. etc. etc. so i think that this is just a result oversharing. yes. and it's interesting because . i think interesting because. i think it's one thing moving away from britain it's another thing moving to america and being popular over there. but clearly , and meghan are not , harry and meghan are not popular there, which leads me to think maybe they're not think that maybe they're not popular . well, you know, i think popular. well, you know, i think americans are waiting for them to begin life of service and problem with fame, which meghan markle chased all of her life , markle chased all of her life, is that the bigger you get, the more, the public holds you accountable . and we're seeing accountable. and we're seeing a lot of lies we're stumbling upon a lot of remember when they left the royal family. they told us they were going to be working

with grass roots independent journalists. that's not anderson cooper. journalists. that's not anderson cooper . that's not, you know, cooper. that's not, you know, itv beef with harry. so i think that americans are looking at them starting to question a lot of their motives and starting to really pay attention to what they say versus what they do . i they say versus what they do. i can't help but wonder kinsey, if harry's popularity falling to near levels, what does this mean for the marriage ? oh, you are so for the marriage? oh, you are so bad . you know what this means bad. you know what this means for the marriage? is going to be johnny depp and amber heard to point out, you know, exactly what this means for marriage. but i do think that if you were if harry and meghan with the popularity is today popularity the way it is today were to netflix or were to approach netflix or there's they would get there's no way they would get there's no way they would get the kind of paycheques that they got for those projects, the return on investment is clearly not this point in time, not there at this point in time, and time them to. well, and it's time for them to. well, this . how do they do it then? this is. how do they do it then? i mean, we don't want to give too many tips, but there too many tips, but is there anything and meghan anything that harry and meghan could point to could do from this point to wrestle popularity wrestle those popularity back up with audience ? i'm

with the american audience? i'm going to tell you something you do want to here in do not want to hear here in states. conversation is states. the conversation is harry and meghan need to apologise and they need move apologise and they need to move back uk. that is back to the uk. that is literally we're saying here literally what we're saying here in that. need to in america that. they need to move the uk. i know that move back to the uk. i know that that's thing you want, that's the last thing you want, so i apologise for bringing you that. so i apologise for bringing you that . well, we will apparently that. well, we will apparently almost anyone back in so it doesn't to match the statements and so they will find their way back in. but so do american fans seriously. now one harry and meghan leave america . i don't meghan leave america. i don't know if we want them to leave america. i just think that we realise that the only thing interesting about them are their relative jobs. they're not interesting people , not exciting interesting people, not exciting people. they really provide no , people. they really provide no, you know, there's nothing inside of they don't provide anything. and i think that what we liked about them was their relation to the british royal family so if they want to continue to be a value to , anybody, i think that value to, anybody, i think that they've got to be closer to the british royal family there you

go. you've heard it here. first, the voice of the american public, schofield, public, kinsey schofield, revealing news revealing live here on gb news that the way harry and that the only way harry and meghan become popular in meghan to become more popular in america they came back america is if they came back here the kinsey always, here to the u.k. kinsey always, always absolute pleasure. thank you much . and i will talk to you so much. and i will talk to you so much. and i will talk to you very, very soon. you again very, very soon. kinsey schofield, is from kinsey schofield, who is from the states and is course a royal expert, reacting the bombshell lack of popularity for harry and meghan. who would have thunk i would have known get more of me in netflix series that's in the netflix series that's what they needed lots of you've been getting touch with your been getting in touch with your thoughts transgender thoughts on that transgender individual who is currently being segregation being held segregation unit a woman's raping woman's in scotland for raping women they were a man. yeah women when they were a man. yeah i know many. the poll says surely if a crime is committed by male, they should be tried as a male uncapped male prison. a male uncapped in male prison. it interesting reports it is interesting that reports say individual started say that this individual started transitioning once they'd charged as well. so this this whole transition which as far as i involves a wig , a pink i tell, involves a wig, a pink jacket and a handbag, because supposedly all of the equipment is still there . that happened

is still there. that happened only after they were caught . and only after they were caught. and alexander she should have alexander says she should have known prison is known better. women's prison is most absurd statement. yeah, i it is how anyone can think that is right but it appears to that they're just trying to desperately a fraction of a percentage of people at the expense of one society. and then breaking up is being progressed and welcome. good how what is progressive what can good about a rapist put a women's a male rapist put in a women's prison . it's almost as absurd prison. it's almost as absurd isn't it is having a double murderer in a kid's school the uk. there we go. that uk. but there we go. that happened jane says happened as well. jane says surely this a huge risk for the safety female inmates. this safety of female inmates. this person has been person in question has been charged right now. in charged of right now. in a nutshell is it, jane? yes. gareth says he my opinion sturgeon's gender sturgeon's scottish gender recognition bill is evil and this case is a prime example of why our government is rightly blocked to look for anyone who goes well to come on. it's just the odd little case. well here's straight off the bat, as i say, and i expect that more and more of this will be done. you have to question them. sorry, but

to question them. i'm sorry, but you to question the motives you have to question the motives of who's charged, of somebody who's charged, convicted serious convicted of such a serious offences desperate offences rape, who is desperate get women's prison get into a women's prison anyway. well that's i would anyway. okay well that's i would argue some very serious stuff that now got out of the that we've now got out of the way. thank very much for everyone who's been emailing vaiews@gbnews.uk. we are now thankfully moving on to something little bit something a little bit different, different , different, rather different, actually a much needed break. i from all of that serious heavy stuff scots around the world are celebrating burns night tonight and a celebration of the country's national poet . in the country's national poet. in the spirit of this, my producers thought it would be good idea what it means to sample some of scotland's delicacies . here we scotland's delicacies. here we go. joining me first is tom cause he's scottish haggis champion. we go scottish haggis champions is 29 saving grace duff thank you very . well happy duff thank you very. well happy happy burn's evening it is now evening isn't taking hours and are your top dog in the game. what's in a haggis.

in scotland. and i've never tasted a bad one, but like for scale i would say all haggis is good but some are better than others. it's just down to the blend of spaces that go into it. yeah. sorry oh i was listening to see but i'm just trying to tone . this is fantastic . it tone. this is fantastic. it feels like a guilty pleasure. some people, to be fair, are put off by haggis there because well, it's awful . well, what well, it's awful. well, what people eat awful and other ways know liver, kidneys, tripe . back know liver, kidneys, tripe. back in the days of rugby bottoms, haggis was seen as a peasant food, cheap to make , but has food, cheap to make, but has evolved since then into something of a delicacy and you can find it on the menus of the dining and restaurants throughout the uk now. absolutely do you think haggis is going to become a gourmet delight ? because no. is going to become a gourmet delight? because no. i mean, there's no why. no, i'm eating this particular one. and whilst it's not going to be as good as your champion haggis, a numerous multiple champion haggis, it must be said it's pretty good .
