9:04 pm
steam, run out of ideas and isn't able to deal with the problems of the nhs . and so problems of the nhs. and so they're resorting to sticking plasters. and finally members of britain's hindu and communities have been protest sitting at bbc buildings across country over a documentary on narendra modi here the bbc . and bbc. documentary on narendra modi here the bbc . and bbc . well here the bbc. and bbc. well people gathered in london newcastle and birmingham in response the programme, which examines claims over the indian prime minister's role in riots in 2002, in which thousands of muslims died. the protesters are calling for a boycott of the bbc and for it to be defunded . we're and for it to be defunded. we're on tv online and on dab plus radio. this is the people's channel gb news back. now to mark dolan .

9:06 pm
news uk this programme has a golden rule. we don't do boring on my watch. i just want out of it. so there you go. lots to get through. big opinions, big stories , big guests. let's start stories, big guests. let's start with this this . by firing tory with this this. by firing tory party chairman nadhim zahawi, where sunak may just have fired up his premiership . and whilst up his premiership. and whilst i acknowledge he hasn't the world on fire since his arrival at number 10, it's my view that shares in rishi sunak are low as he marks 100 days in office this week, which is a long time in the job by recent. it's all to play the job by recent. it's all to play for a week is a long time in politics and two years which is how long he's got until the next election is an eternity . next election is an eternity. the firing of zahawi is what we need to see more of from sunak his side as pursues his five point plan to halve inflation
9:07 pm
and cut the debt. fix the nhs waiting lists boost economic and tackle the migrant crisis. now the tories , not for the first the tories, not for the first time in their history, are by allegations of sleaze which may or may not have merits . but or may not have merits. but however unedifying, these stories about financial impropriety may be they are ultimately little more than plot lines in westminster, soap opera . correct me if i'm wrong, but i would humbly what matters more to you , the british people , is to you, the british people, is the value of the pound in your pockets. how much your rent costs or your mortgage energy bills . your job security. the bills. yourjob security. the safety , the streets, your safety, the streets, your ability to . get a gp appointment ability to. get a gp appointment , good schools for your kids. and so on with the cervix free. leader of opposition to keir starmer ahead in the polls. i would say be careful what you wish for . yes is a million times wish for. yes is a million times better than jeremy corbyn. many
9:08 pm
would argue labour deserve a shot at power . after 13 years of shot at power. after 13 years of tory misrule . commentators say tory misrule. commentators say that starmer has transformed his party ridding them the scourge of antisemitism and dragging them kicking and screaming into them kicking and screaming into the political centre ground . the political centre ground. allow tony blair. starmer is talking about nhs reform , talking about nhs reform, stopping the boats and fixing the economy. he even likes brexit. now they say that starmer couldn't do any worse than the tories who crashed the economy. as a result, many think it's economy. as a result, many think wsfime economy. as a result, many think it's time for labour really labour the answer to industrial strife and the striking unions when they're in the pockets of the union barons themselves. let me tell you, it's very hard to stand up to upon whom you are financially dependent . is labour financially dependent. is labour really the answer ? the migrant really the answer? the migrant crisis, when they've blocked the rwanda plan and promised a deal with france . good luck with that
9:09 pm
with france. good luck with that one. bombshells are labour really the answer ? it comes to really the answer? it comes to woke political correctness which is driving so many brits mad. jeremy clarkson's been writing about it he points out quite correctly in the sunday times last weekend that woke culture is slowly eating away at the fabnc is slowly eating away at the fabric this country teaching us to hate our history and divide our society with bonkers ideas like critical race theory , which like critical race theory, which links racism to skin and gender, ideology which says a man is a woman and vice . how can starmer woman and vice. how can starmer push back that when he can't even define a woman is even though married to one? starmer on record as saying, and i quote the phrase only have a cervix is that shouldn't be said. it's not right and he'll tackle extreme political correctness and woke nonsense , will he? for the nonsense, will he? for the record only women have a service
9:10 pm
i should know. i spent nine months next to one as i grew inside my mother's. only women have a womb as well. by the way . is labour really the to inflation when they'll be under enormous pressure to hand out bonanza. public sector pay rises given that's where their support politically is labour really the answer to our energy when they want to start a 1970s style state run energy firm which invests borrowed billions on flaky renewables . now green flaky renewables. now green energy could be the future. but should taxpayers be taking that bet in the end. sunak settled the nerves of the international or bond markets upon whom are unfortunately now reliance with the cost of government borrowing having fallen and with trust . having fallen and with trust. britain as an investment, having sygnia efficiently recovered internationally . yes, taxes too internationally. yes, taxes too high. illegal immigration is too high. illegal immigration is too high. inflate and is too high.
9:11 pm
waiting lists are too high enough to make you sick . but waiting lists are too high enough to make you sick. but in his next hundred days, there's every chance that sunak . if he every chance that sunak. if he stays focussed , keeps his eye on stays focussed, keeps his eye on the prize , could make the prize, could make significant progress . all those significant progress. all those areas . and if he does so, areas. and if he does so, i believe he narrows the gap on starmer and flirts with a narrow victory at the next election . in victory at the next election. in the end, it's a choice between two prime ministers rishi sunak or sir keir starmer. two prime ministers rishi sunak or sir keir starmer . who would or sir keir starmer. who would you rather have at ten? look, sunak lacks boris speechmaking skills and those instagram and videos he does are about wooden as the new forest . and he's as the new forest. and he's hardly a man of the people. out of touch, privately educated rich banker who's married to a billionaire, but who cares? you don't have to for a pint with him or be his best mate. he doesn't have to say all the
9:12 pm
right things doesn't have to be a great person. he has to be great. prime minister. and it's my view that after a solid hundred days in office, he's got makings of just that . his first makings of just that. his first 100 days won't be last . your 100 days won't be last. your reaction at gbnews.uk . all reaction at gbnews.uk. all shares in rishi sunak to low he celebrates 100 days in office this week. what's your appraisal? it gets your email shortly, but let's get the views now of my fantastic panel. brand new. a fantastic new recruit to mark dolan tonight former mep and political commentator . a and political commentator. a non—starter. rees—mogg tv and radio presenter broadcasting legend neil fox and journalist and political commentator and playwright emma burnell a non—starter . playwright emma burnell a non—starter. let me start with you. your appraisal . rishi you. your appraisal. rishi sunak's first 100 days. i think we have to face the obvious fact
9:13 pm
that he came in at a very very difficult point not only in his country's future but his future and far he has done nothing to make that any worse. so that in itself is an achievement that it wasn't always certain he would get to. however, i think there have been errors the way and i'm hopeful that he will sort those out, get rid of the problems that he's had as having nadhim zahawi being investigated and accused of breaking them in the stereo code. but now cleared that out. let's hope he can get and sort out the real problems that country faces. a non—starter . should he have non—starter. should he have sacked nadhim zahawi soon than he did? i wasn't inside his head and his thinking process. i think we were all pretty certain a week ago of where this going. but if you've got a due process, it's wise to stick to it . it's wise to stick to it. interesting stuff. neil fox ,
9:14 pm
interesting stuff. neil fox, what do you think about this 100 days of rishi sunak, i believe shares in sunak are too low . shares in sunak are too low. yeah, i have to say . shares in sunak are too low. yeah, i have to say. i was i was noting along to your monologue because i hope none of those nodding in agreement be pleased to know, because i think you made a lot of good points. look i think he's done a pretty good job. in at a really job. he came in at a really tough time. i mean, last year, it was insane, wasn't it ? tough time. i mean, last year, it was insane, wasn't it? be honest. and he had to steady a unstable ship . and i think he's unstable ship. and i think he's done that pretty well. and i remember being on this programme some months ago when the leadership election was going on and just saying, actually, you know, don't necessarily the know, i don't necessarily the most charismatic , the best most charismatic, the best person to make videos or make funny liners. all i just want is actually potentially quite bonng actually potentially quite boring just to be really good at theirjob. boring just to be really good at their job. just a boring just to be really good at theirjob. just a steady boring just to be really good at their job. just a steady things down because there are an awful lot of really big issues facing our country at the moment. some may be the government's making some the ones that have been internationally made, but you just some a steady ship,
9:15 pm
just need some a steady ship, really. and i think the first hundred days has been have hundred days has been a bit have been pretty steady they have been pretty steady. they have been pretty steady. they have been wooden places. i did been quite wooden places. i did smile at new forest . i smile at the new forest. i mentioned at last very good. but again he pretty steady and stable obviously. mr. zahawi , stable obviously. mr. zahawi, this sacking probably has right. but but i agree that there is a due process and instead of a knee jerking all the time and instantly sacking people, you have to actually through and work out whether anything been done wrong . they worked out, yes done wrong. they worked out, yes . so he had to go and. now he's made the decision and now we have to move on. do i think it should be boris johnson, please? no i think although that sounds like an inhumane easy fix and a charismatic , i don't think that charismatic, i don't think that would be right for the country or party. but i'm sure we'll or the party. but i'm sure we'll discuss more later on. but so far, i think a pretty solid 100 days. there's much work days. but there's so much work to five points they to do. these five points they want to fix, they need want to fix, they all need fixing. emma the inconvenient for labour is that rishi sunak is doing a solid job. i'm, i
9:16 pm
mean, he's solidly 20 points behind. it doesn't . feel that behind. it doesn't. feel that inconvenient he's better than liz truss great. i honestly you've made the best fist of making a case for rishi sunak and i applaud you for that. mark i really do. but i think that, you know, in your heart that the country wants change and think rishi sunak knows that in his heart too. there are just times when the political wind changes and it just feels like this government is clapped out . they government is clapped out. they haven't actually done anything in those hundred days. 100 days has been of all tidying up the absolute disaster was left behind from the previous two tory prime ministers but in the meantime, there's no new legislation and it's not like we're a country that isn't going. we need stuff to happen . going. we need stuff to happen. we need things to change. so that needs to be so much more dynamism. and i just don't think
9:17 pm
either he has that in him or that the party is behind him in being willing to come together to make the changes that they would want. say, i don't see are to the clocks against us, but you're pretty close to some important figures in the conservative party . do you feel conservative party. do you feel that as a political force they are running out of steam? are they tired ? do they need a break they tired? do they need a break from power . they tired? do they need a break from power. no, i think there was a definite exhaustion after covid was an extraordinary time in our country and in the world and an awful lot of energy and effort went into that. but they've regrouped , got together, they've regrouped, got together, and our support saying, rishi, that they actually seem united in a way that although he had his huge fans, they weren't necessarily fully behind boris johnson as we've seen at his . johnson as we've seen at his. but i think together and finding a way forward to solve the really serious problems our country's facing economically and socially . we will see them
9:18 pm
and socially. we will see them through . okay, we'll look. through. okay, we'll look. coming up in the news agenda with my panel. should johnson replace nadhim zahawi ? we as replace nadhim zahawi? we as conservative party ? my mark conservative party? my mark means guest tory mp danny kruger done to producer holly for booking dining at the very last minute and what a booking this guy is a former aide to boris johnson , a chief speechwriter johnson, a chief speechwriter for, david cameron, and quite the life story, by the way, one of the little thing his mum is prue leith from the bake off. so i'll be asking him how delicious his childhood was. but next in the big question has labour changed keir starmer? i'll changed from keir starmer? i'll be asking x labour minister denis and tory firebrand ann widdecombe. don't go anywhere anywhere .
9:19 pm
9:20 pm
9:21 pm
well, i believe that shares keir starmer are too low. i think he's undervalued and i think he
9:22 pm
has a narrow chance of winning the next election. there you go. i said a week is a long time in politics. years is an eternity but. what do you think, mark at gb news dot uk. trevor is not having it. trevor says hi mark. i've always conservative, but what can they do in the next 15 months that they haven't done the last 12 years? they're finished and i'm voting reform next, martin says to steady and stable to win the next election unless he pulls a rabbit out of a money tree. the conservative motives are toast. high illegal immigration and plan for growth. they are finished . bad news. the they are finished. bad news. the sunak and the tories. let's have a look at this one from sarah . a look at this one from sarah. hi, sarah, how are you? thanks for your email tonight. anyone who has shares in sunak ditch them. let us not forget who was responsible for getting the economy the mess it's in. economy in the mess it's in. yes, in his leadership yes, sunak in his leadership which he lost in case you'd forgotten, he promised to stop the boats in 100 days. he has failed. so there go. sarah's failed. so there we go. sarah's email goes on. it's fascinating
9:23 pm
and thank you for it, sarah. i wish i had time for more. last but not least, richard ricci is superintelligent , an immense superintelligent, an immense work ethic. i'm no fan. i didn't want him, but think he needs to be given more time to, see if he is hot or the real deal. is hot air or the real deal. thank you, richard. keep those emails coming. market gbnews.uk . but time waits for no man and time certainly doesn't wait for and let's do this . yes, it's and let's do this. yes, it's time for the big question in which we tackle a news story of the day . tonight's addressing the day. tonight's addressing labour's london regional conference. sir keir starmer outline how he has transformed his own party. never has had what labour failed to grasp . what labour failed to grasp. stability is the foundation of our ambitions. never will labour allow hate spread unchallenged . allow hate spread unchallenged. we've changed party and we're
9:24 pm
ready change britain . so that's ready change britain. so that's tonight's big question has labour changed? sir keir starmer would they change britain for the better has he reinvented his party the way that tony blair did in the 1990s to debate this? i'm delighted to welcome former conservative government bestselling author and television personality ann widdecombe , former labour widdecombe, former labour minister for europe . political minister for europe. political commentator dennis macshane. hi, dennis, welcome back to the show. has labour changed under keir starmer. show. has labour changed under keir starmer . well yes. i mean keir starmer. well yes. i mean if you actually read the labour blogs , the poor left , my old blogs, the poor left, my old mates are tearing their hair out . they have finally been told this country not up for radical left very socialist programme and we've perfectly competent leader . not and we've perfectly competent leader. not dramatic drama
9:25 pm
starmer who just sit in hand cleaning up a lot of the self—evident mistakes i mean culminating today this ludicrous business i mean i'd a year ago when i was in government the idea that some advice to the government to rush in is reported like typekit out double quick then the prime minister uses it to fire a bad he expressed full confidence . it's expressed full confidence. it's just never been seen before in british politics over the tories frankly are in a pretty bad way at the moment. however dan is focusing on labour for the moment. does keir starmer have the x factor ? does he have tony the x factor? does he have tony blair's charisma charisma ? he's blair's charisma charisma? he's not a superstar in insensitively became again with tony blair was described as bambi by the tories . many on the left of the labour party didn't really rate him, but he's just explained what he
9:26 pm
thought needed to be done . his thought needed to be done. his explanation was accepted by the country, but in a very different way, if you like, a bit like joe biden in the united states, it's steady and sure we're past the flush. harry moment in politics. but as goes the boris johnson's , the sort of drama queens , , the sort of drama queens, drama kings and people just want a competent, steady manager. but taking decisions in broad best interests of the country . joe interests of the country. joe biden steady , safe, all the biden steady, safe, all the other . although on the contrary, other. although on the contrary, i mean all the very contrary. but i know laughing away. i mean , i watched the daily telegraph on speed, the plain fact is that biden unbelievably kept control of the senate which no other president has done with term. he's got very low unemployment, better . he's got some stuff better. he's got some stuff a lot of people don't like is called the for industrial relations reform act he's facing
9:27 pm
down putin. i if i had a penny or two i would i would i would put it on biden winning or holding the white house at the next us election just wait and see. well, i suppose pigs might fly. dennis, you're entitled your view but and let's focus on labouri your view but and let's focus on labour i think dennis reveals a lot in his answers. he's not that keen talk about labour and that keen talk about labour and that wasn't exactly a ringing endorsement of the leader was it 7 endorsement of the leader was it ? no. and i mean any comparison , biden is farcical. i mean, biden is senile. and the idea he's going to win his next election, i think is far fetched. however concentrate on this country. let's concentrate on stoma. first of all is in hock the unions and he hasn't said about how he's going cope with strikes . secondly, he has with strikes. secondly, he has got no clear policy at all on immigration, which is now on illegal immigration is now a
9:28 pm
serious of a pretty well everybody in the country he's got no policies for getting rid of woke and getting the country back to common sense . in fact, back to common sense. in fact, he's adding to work he doesn't know what a woman is , can't know what a woman is, can't define a woman on. and i always point out , although i'm aware point out, although i'm aware a lot of people have lost sight of this, was he who when was running the crime? prosecutor service began the measures which alison saunders then took on but began the measures which led to so many false allegations against men because the victim always to be believed and you know that initial movement on the part of starmer was what eventually led to foster's operation midland . and i know operation midland. and i know people tend to forget that i remember it . and finally this . remember it. and finally this. what have we heard from him this week at a time when the nhs is in crisis, there are strikes all
9:29 pm
over the public sector. we have a war in ukraine and all we could talk about from the despatch box was the politics of personal destruction in. this case, it was nadhim zahawi . now case, it was nadhim zahawi. now i believe whatever else where she should not because or wrong. but he is right to say innocent until proven not going to take measures while there is an investigation going on make that investor gation very quick and then take decisive action when you've got the can't see anything with that. but starmer starmer already the dispatch box wanted to brush aside any of innocence any need for a proper investigate and just to go in like a bull in a china shop. oh look . dennis like a bull in a china shop. oh look. dennis dennis perhaps. and if so effusive perhaps she's sweating because she knows deep down that starmer will be our next minister. but how would you
9:30 pm
respond to what an has said ? respond to what an has said? keir starmer well, it's a lot of froth, isn't it? there's nothing really substantial there . what really substantial there. what stories does that i mean you sell his biggest fan. oh, i didn't interrupt you. please. we used to refer to a courteous with you the house of commons try to get you your you'll enjoy life a lot more now still keir is modernising modernising re century re century reset tree getting rid of all along of the old barnacles other been slightly too labour for far too long certainly between 2010 and up to 2020. i think the people probably liking what they are see and all the opinion polls suggest that haven't had any byelections to actually test it. so i, i think , you know, time so i, i think, you know, time for a change is how our democracy works with whigs didn't stay power forever .
9:31 pm
didn't stay power forever. liberals didn't stay power conserve and stay power forever. tories have been in power for 30 years now it's ended in farce. it is small hours of the morning, frankly , i don't blame morning, frankly, i don't blame rishi sunak the way that some said it was tory stooges related withdrawal the right but were gb news not the labor party we all like it was prime that do stay there. it'sjust like it was prime that do stay there. it's just a sheer inexperience , lack of political inexperience, lack of political nous , his lack of a political nous, his lack of a political nose, the smell or you said you'll go out for a drink with people. he doesn't drink he doesn't really go out with people when he does meet them as. see these some of these as. we see these some of these staged events. he seems staged on tv events. he seems very , very uncomfortable easily. very, very uncomfortable easily. can golden can jefferson golden bank, goldman sachs banker, hedge fund manager, multi—billionaire as. you said without the faintest of the life the vast majority of middle class and other people in this country . middle class and other people in this country. so if he middle class and other people in this country . so if he stays on this country. so if he stays on as pm, who knows maybe boris will try and oust him again because he's got the loyalty of
9:32 pm
a sort of ferry on the heat of boris. a sort of ferry on the heat of bofis.theni a sort of ferry on the heat of boris. then i think he if he stays on i'm afraid probably he's not going to be the prime minister 18 months or 20 months time and. i've just got a couple of seconds left. closing thoughts. well wonderful, isn't it ? i mean, starmer is praised it? i mean, starmer is praised being like the senile old man in the castle. the prime minister is criticised because he doesn't dnnk. is criticised because he doesn't drink . never is criticised because he doesn't drink. never heard a politician before criticise because he doesn't drink. i'm part of the opposite. sometimes i. and on that alcoholic note , my sincere that alcoholic note, my sincere thanks to ann widdecombe , the thanks to ann widdecombe, the former government minister, bestselling author and television personality and is with us every sunday night. she is the star of mark dolan tonight and always a highlight on a sunday. a delight on a sunday. and what a delight to the former labour to welcome the former labour minister political minister for europe, political commentator macshane . commentator dennis macshane. dennis, forward to our dennis, i look forward to our next on air encounter. thanks for your time and your reaction, folks. market gbnews.uk coming

9:37 pm
neil fox , journalist and neil fox, journalist and political commentator . now the political commentator. now the conservative mp and soon to be gb news starjacob rees—mogg responded to the news of nadhim zahawi sacking by suggesting bofis zahawi sacking by suggesting boris johnson would be perfect replacement as conservative party chairman. here he is talking to our very own camilla tominey this morning . talking to our very own camilla tominey this morning. i think it's very difficult to bring back boris johnson in a subordinate role that he's such a big figure that he would dominate any cabinet that he was in, even as a lesson , a figure in, even as a lesson, a figure then prime minister. so i think that would be very to do. but he has the right attributes for party. he so should boris johnson stage a political comeback ? the new chairman of comeback? the new chairman of the tory party , would he be the tory party, would he be rishi sunak's secret weapon or a thorn in his neil? i think ultimately he'd be a big thorn in his side because as quite
9:38 pm
rightly was said that he's a huge figure in politics still a bit marmite were discussing amongst the three of us so you do love him or, you hate him and he does. he does seem to connect very. well, he is an orator communicator. you know, we know he can connect well with people and he be happy just to be the chairman. or is he sitting there all the time just, oh, i actually want to be back in number 10. and i think that would be the because you always have remember reason why have to remember the reason why he prime minister. he ended up not prime minister. we such memories, but we have such short memories, but the sleaze and the amount of sleaze and problems ups that happened problems and ups that happened in those years before leading up to when he left. you know, they haven't away and they haven't changed. those are there changed. so those are all there to brought back and against to be brought back and against him actually against the him and actually against the party and i don't know whether maybe need something fresh maybe just need something fresh and what fresh and new. i don't know what fresh and new. i don't know what fresh a is in this department, but a new is in this department, but i don't necessarily think it's the emma, you're the right. move. emma, you're something human something of a student of human nature. you're playwright. nature. you're a playwright. perceptive. would an perceptive. and this would an extraordinary drama , wouldn't extraordinary drama, wouldn't it? having having boris johnson
9:39 pm
as chairman of the party and rishi sunak as leader , it really rishi sunak as leader, it really words. i mean as a labour supporter, i couldn't welcome it enough. let's at what the job of conservative chair is to do a it's to be the person who goes on the media around and defends the government. the story of the day. now the thing about boris is he's always the story of the day he will be, you know, throughout all this time we have not seen we've only just seen the date set for the investigation around partygate and all of that . so that's all and all of that. so that's all yet to come . he's still tainting yet to come. he's still tainting everything that he's ever touched. the part of the story last week , the secondary story last week, the secondary story from from nadhim zahawi was this loan. it was organised through the thames to boris johnson because there's some reason he didn't have enough money and needed 800 grand more . so just needed 800 grand more. so just every time. so that would be every time. so that would be every time. so that would be every time he's on that he wouldn't be able to defend the
9:40 pm
government, he would be talking about boris johnson, he wouldn't be help himself. be able to help himself. secondly, their job is to organise party and them onto organise the party and them onto an election footing. now, boris johnson a man had to johnson is a man who had to through three number tens in his short in power because he short time in power because he just couldn't get that personnel management right. so he's not the guy that's going to go the conservative hq and sit down role as slaves and sort out that who can do these jobs well rather than who's to be good for boris? so again, i just don't see him taking that role on well for the tories. so please let him do it and don't say ask. it's fascinating isn't it. i think it's a dilemma for sunak because if sunak at a certain point becomes convinced that he will lose the next election , will lose the next election, bofis will lose the next election, boris johnson becomes the kitchen sink option. i don't think he does because i think he would actually garner huge support around the country that the members who left in droves over the last 12 months would return. that would bring in
9:41 pm
money he would bring membership, he would bring in door knockers and leaflet deliveries . and it and leaflet deliveries. and it would go down extremely with conservative supporters in the seats that it looks like is set to lose . however i think setting to lose. however i think setting up a massive between the prime minister and his party outside of parliament would be a big mistake and whether it was intentional or not that division would exist. do you think party is having trouble moving on from bofis is having trouble moving on from boris johnson? are they sort of deifying the man now and is he the new issue that splits the party because previously previously it was europe wasn't it? now it feels like it's boris that splits the party as he filled that everyone needs to disagree about something. i think boris johnson is marmite that's neil said. but it was peanut butter. maybe i don't like either stilton cheese, but yeah, i get your point. he does have a very , very strong group
9:42 pm
have a very, very strong group core supporters . that's why he core supporters. that's why he got the landslide election victory. he did in 2019 and we it would be an to forget that. however think he is quite happy now proper money. i suspect his wife is appreciating not having live completely in the public eye and decide our children. it is not a great lifestyle . is not a great lifestyle. however nice number might look on paper or have many beautiful sofas and wallpapers you have . sofas and wallpapers you have. but he does have a group of supporters that could change the outcome of the election . and for outcome of the election. and for the conservatives, i think where she's seen that wants to have him onside but he doesn't want her set him up with a platform of his own to potentially undermine whether on or not rishi's leadership . johnson is, rishi's leadership. johnson is, however , a resource and the however, a resource and the tories are in the polls. so if you will rishi sunak and your sat there in number 10, drinking
9:43 pm
from your quid thermos mug gifted to you by your billionaire wife in your posh moccasins, i'm not that i'm jealous . what does he do with jealous. what does he do with bofis jealous. what does he do with boris ? well, how does he deploy boris? well, how does he deploy this resource after all? boris johnson is a conservative. he is a conservative. and that why he does have support up and the country and why he want an in the way that he did . rishi sunak the way that he did. rishi sunak has to offer some kind of olive branch and they need to get on for the sake of the party and. so that would suit boris then . so that would suit boris then. mean, deputy prime mean, i guess, deputy prime minister be stretch. i think minister be a stretch. i think it's secretary. i think that they have a broad. i think it's unlikely to be an actual i unlikely to be an actual job. i think let get on with it. but show that you can be friends for good of the country. the good of the party. yeah yeah. i think one of the problems is that bofisis one of the problems is that boris is such figure that boris is such a big figure that you're absolutely right, emma, that would get that whenever boris would get in front camera, he would kind front of a camera, he would kind of it all about of dominate it and it all about bofis of dominate it and it all about boris actually about boris's
9:44 pm
boris and actually about boris's history and what he's about. what may is he going to do what may what is he going to do in and won't be about in future? and it won't be about the that people he the issues that people have. he should talking about maybe the party they're party and whatever they're trying defend day trying to defend that day or maybe their policy should maybe what their policy should be. that's the be. and i think that's the problem he's almost too problem. he's he's almost too big. like a one man, you big. he's like a one man, you know, one man sort of role. well, it's going say one man well, it's going to say one man sort caterpillartractor. well, it's going to say one man sort caterpillar tractor. he sort of caterpillar tractor. he just his way through. just blocks his way through. however sure i buy your however i'm not sure i buy your idea that boris idea that you'd boris johnson back public , because the back in public, because the bottom line is he's very popular, especially those popular, especially among those wall labour voters . he was wall labour voters. he was popular with of those voters. but there are some real things that were missed in terms of what happened in that election. first of all, labour gifted , the first of all, labour gifted, the bofis first of all, labour gifted, the boris johnson like conservative party at absolute own go in the aec the leadership of jeremy corbyn and be the disastrous approach that that leadership took to 2019 and the difference between the way that labour's
9:45 pm
approach 2017 and 2019 was was to monumental predominantly , to monumental predominantly, predominantly brexit second referendum. second referendum, but also just by that point the, the issues internally in the had gone from behind the scenes to spilling out massively the pubuc spilling out massively the public and the things like the shameful, the things around antisemitism and you know, they were really big issues that needed to be dealt with and weren't. so that gave a much easier ride . also, boris johnson easier ride. also, boris johnson is really incredibly popular with one group of voters. he's also equally incredibly close , also equally incredibly close, by almost as large, a separate group of voters. and there are very few people who can be won over way in the middle. yeah so actually he's not persuasive politician. he's a popular that expands his own voter base but he's not someone who brings over wavering voters. and i think that's what the tories right now will look fascinating debate. what's your view? i'll get to your emails next on that market
9:46 pm
gbnews.uk. do you think that bofis gbnews.uk. do you think that boris johnson would be good party chairman . let me know your party chairman. let me know your thoughts now. we've been asking you on twitter your view on this should boris make come back as tory party chairman . 52% said tory party chairman. 52% said yes and 48% said no . brexit yes and 48% said no. brexit yesterday . what about about yesterday. what about about a second vote? should we go again on that one? i will accept the result. fair, not. there you go. more than half of you want, boris. back at least in a big job in politics, if not number 10. coming up in next very looking forward to my take it ten big changes and efficiencies a plan for the nhs about time and my mart meats guest is tory mp danny kruger. not only is he prue leith son of course that woman, that wonderful from bake off, but he holds mba and in fact is one of the most important tory insiders you will find. former speech writer to

9:52 pm
mordaunt into number 10 and then things might really take off . things might really take off. i'll get some more of your emails shortly. market gbnews.uk . but let's head now to issues north of the border as . you have north of the border as. you have heard in the news headlines scotland's . first minister scotland's. first minister nicholas sturgeon has had to row back on her plans to accommodate women rapists in scottish prisons following public anger around the case of adam graham, who raped two women is a man who then to identify as female and who qualified for a place in a women's prison . even though he women's prison. even though he is still a biological man. nicholas sturgeon has committed huge political capital to her new gender i.d. law, in which people can unilaterally change gender by which they identify without a medical examination . without a medical examination. after just a few months , many after just a few months, many women feel this new law will impact women's safety and female only spaces. so has nicholas sturgeon bitten off more than she can chew? is this the end of political career and the dream of independence by cancelling
9:53 pm
women? has sturgeon cancelled herself ? let us now speak to a herself? let us now speak to a good friend of the show, former snp city councillor austin sheridan. hi austin, great to have you on the programme. is it game over for sturgeon and for independence . absolutely that's independence. absolutely that's one thing that i would just like to correct just. and you don't mean there is that cost option has never planned to have every and female just like any politician of any complexion you would would want that to be the case. what we don't see and which the scottish presidency have is they are review missing them come to a conclusion the correct conclusion that a rapist should never and you be allowed to serve and a female present alongside other females personally and i believe that was a mistake. and if took place and so that person if it puts them in a female prison cotton vale in scotland they are going to doing a review and also that
9:54 pm
came about and i would certainly expect the outcome of that review should mean that that situation should never rise again. we are concerned . again. woman we are concerned. women have right to be women have a right to be concerned and obviously concerned and obviously concerned well . but i see concerned as well. but i see this a lot about them to be and so absolutely. i'm glad those that have taken place and i hope that have taken place and i hope that some of that will be without that. issues should never rise again. however, and i take your point, austin, if trans women, rapists are not accommodated in prisons that . is accommodated in prisons that. is the scottish government saying they're women? can we confirm that they're not women because they don't go a women's prison ? they don't go a women's prison? no, the way that i as few crime as modern such as rape sexual assault and then that is the way that action should be punished. that situation i think that would be i think that that would be as a reasonable and to have and so goes to turn seats and in terms of how these prisoners you
9:55 pm
know are and to benefit end of the prison service it should be noted and discussion was isolated isolation. they had no access to our prisoners any prisoners and our 2004 claim such as they are sexual assault. they are always isolated . the they are always isolated. the investigation is carried out . investigation is carried out. assessment takes into account key points and direct to that prisoner all the if two other prisoners and the to prison staff and. the scottish prison service are very good at general and carried out these assessments and more often than not come to the correct conclusion . we also are hearing conclusion. we also are hearing stories of a sex attacker that's accommodated in a prison that identifies as a baby and wears a nappy nicholas sturgeon has lost control of the country, hasn't she , though? that's not she, though? that's not something that i'm aware of, and i'm not entirely sure someone could get in that prison a female chose not to. in any
9:56 pm
prison that you are not a county , that kind of thing. and so and as i say that that doesn't absolute at all. and that connection has not lost control of the country. that question , of the country. that question, you know, and as i say, has put faith in the scottish prison service. i safely scratch the surface of it, come to that i conclusion over the viral and that was sent and to an absolute great outcome of that was there was they should never be allowed and you know and to make sure that if people population because one of the things they have to decide on female prisoners as lot of women who are in prison have been subject to so to sexual assault previous to so to sexual assault previous to self and prison. i mean it's actually make sure that we take into account and you know the rights women should feel safe in and we've been said that you would never find me of doing anything about them women should feel safe when they're in prison. okay austin, great to have you on the show. have you back on the show. thanks for your time. we'll speak a former snp speak again. a former snp glasgow city councillor austin very my mark meets

10:02 pm
zahawi was negotiated creating with hmrc and the huge penalty that he had to pay pointed rishi sunak's say in parliament that all questions had been about this affair and why on earth is the prime minister holding up this rogue's gallery of conservative ministers with others who ? obviously have others who? obviously have broken security rules are subject to allegations of very serious bullying and yet the prime minister seems to seek to act against them . now, newly act against them. now, newly transgender person , a history of transgender person, a history of violence against women be placed in female prisons in scotland. the temporary aim to ensure that the safety of inmates while the management trans prisoners is examined. the decision comes ahead of an urgent into lessons learned by. the case of convicted, double racist rapist rather isla , who was originally rather isla, who was originally sent to a women's prison . a 16 sent to a women's prison. a16 year old boy has been charged

10:04 pm
government's half the number of district nurses who are essential to provide support in the community. i think this is a government that's run of steam, run out of ideas and isn't able to deal with the fundamental problems of the nhs . so they're problems of the nhs. so they're resorting to sticking plasters and members of britain's hindu and members of britain's hindu and indian communities have protesting at bbc buildings across country over a documentary on narendra modi . on documentary on narendra modi. on bbc people gathered in london , bbc people gathered in london, newcastle and birmingham in response to the programme, which examines claims the indian prime minister's role in riots in 2002. in which thousands of muslims died. protesters are calling for boycott of the bbc and for it to be defunded on onune and for it to be defunded on online and on tv radio. this is gb news. now to .

10:06 pm
top tory mp danny kruger. but first my take it . ten alongside first my take it. ten alongside the economy and immigration surely this government's other great priority the nhs. it's a scandal that over 7 million people are on a waiting list for treatment. what's that? almost one in ten of the population. and we know the issues the pandemic and i've mentioned before dreadful levels public health in this country. so for example obesity and other lifestyle related illnesses bringing the service to its knees , threatening to ultimately knees, threatening to ultimately bankrupt it. but the prescription clear and unprecedented focus on public health through education encourage the public , starting encourage the public, starting with kids at school , adopt a with kids at school, adopt a healthy diet, maybe teach kids how to cook at school and the nhs can be from what it currently does , which is currently does, which is essentially to facilitate and
10:07 pm
underwrites our unhealthy lifestyles and its management of covid. the nhs was clearly trying to save lives . they trying to save lives. they feared becoming over whelmed. i understand , but in my view it understand, but in my view it was a disastrous in which so much focus on one disease came at the expense of more serious illnesses like cancer, mental health type two diabetes and dementia , with excess deaths in dementia, with excess deaths in early january of this year, the highest since february 20, 21, at the height of the pandemic. it doesn't speak well for government's lockdown policy or even the vaccine rollout , after even the vaccine rollout, after both of which you would expect excess deaths to be below, not above average was the point. so the nhs must change or die. which is why i'm pleased to see that at last we are having a grown up national conversation about the service . it's very
10:08 pm
about the service. it's very clear that the nurses , doctors, clear that the nurses, doctors, the hospital, porters the cooks, the hospital, porters the cooks, the security guards, you name it , they are the best have. we love them and doctors and nurses have been through hell during the pandemic. but at a cost of £13,000 per household. the nhs is problems are no longer about cash. most of the public accept this money pit no longer be filled and change is the answer. not withstanding a government's injection of more billions over the next two years to catch up from pandemic. this money rightly be combined with real reform and fresh ideas. for example as reported in today's sunday telegraph, the idea of opening more so—called virtual wards so the frail and elderly be monitored at home by doctors using video and other technology. now, don't worry , technology. now, don't worry, won't be stuck at home with an ipad or an iphone. they not have
10:09 pm
one. importantly this will work with the backup of community teams visit people in their homes taking pressure off hospitals and improving patient care so that you go to the doctor will see you now home what's not to like we can debate the rights and wrongs of these ideas but it's clear system we have at the moment is not working. drastic changes needed to save the patient . i think we to save the patient. i think we should start by diversity offices middle managers on sixth figure salaries . the nhs needs figure salaries. the nhs needs to be leaner , meaner and yes , to be leaner, meaner and yes, smaller. it's often proudly said that the nhs , the biggest that the nhs, the biggest employer in europe apparently the third biggest employer in the third biggest employer in the world. why is that a boast . the world. why is that a boast. thatis the world. why is that a boast. that is a shameful admission of its wild inefficiency . be clear. its wild inefficiency. be clear. i don't want to see the nhs privatise and i do not want an american system in which you
10:10 pm
have to reach for a card when you break your leg . absolutely you break your leg. absolutely not. but it's good that we're having a conversation about how private enterprise can be deployed to save costs and to deliver a better service for patients. even labour is saying that now . it's good that we're that now. it's good that we're having a conversation about charging for gp appointments which could potentially prevent missed appointments and stop so many people taking our so—called health service for granted . health service for granted. maybe it's a bad policy. maybe it's a good one. but let's talk about it. let's debate it a of reckoning is coming for our health service. if it is to survive , the nhs is no longer survive, the nhs is no longer a political sacred cow . yes, the political sacred cow. yes, the staff are utterly brilliant . but staff are utterly brilliant. but its middle managers are full of bull. the health service has been milking us for too long, and given the nhs has presided over decades of declining public health. i got beef with it . the health. i got beef with it. the stakes are high, so they must take stock and go hell for
10:11 pm
leather. if we don't embrace , we leather. if we don't embrace, we risk days on the nhs. sacre and cow has become a mad cow. but it's too soon for the just yet . it's too soon for the just yet. what's your prescription for nhs mark at gb news? what do you think about idea of a virtual wards? the idea is to save money and take pressure off hospitals . i think we should look at it. i think actually got to do some big thinking about the nhs. let's get the views of my all star panel. former mep annunziata rees—mogg . tv and annunziata rees—mogg. tv and radio presenter neil. and journalist and political commentator. emma burnell . let's commentator. emma burnell. let's let's ask you about this . the let's ask you about this. the nhs. it's not about money any more, is it? it's got to change, survive. i think it's a little bit of both. it was underfunded for a very long and while
10:12 pm
funding is returned back to the average as it was for ten years. it didn't have that that. i i don't mean to interrupt you because, you know, that's not my style. but for example the nhs was protected during it was ring fenced it was because more money was pumped in during the pandemic. costs went up the spending as a percentage down dunng spending as a percentage down during that time . and then it during that time. and then it went back up during . so we had went back up during. so we had ten years where it was going down. we had time when it went back up. but there is also a conversation to be had about the different type society we have now from when the nhs was set up and how we can develop a health care system that is about positive health. i agree with you that much more public health prevent if measures would make so much more difference. part of the problem is always that we always say we want to see prevent of health. the corollary
10:13 pm
of much more preventative health would be fewer hospitals . and we would be fewer hospitals. and we all go, that would be great in theory. then you have an whose local hospital might once be closed down. not such a happy bunny. closed down. not such a happy bunny . so we need to be able bunny. so we need to be able manage this as a whole system in a way , brings the staff, manage this as a whole system in a way , brings the staff , the a way, brings the staff, the patients, the politicians and the taxpayers together than always seen as in opposition to each other and actually develops a system that works , that keeps a system that works, that keeps us healthier , but also happier us healthier, but also happier and. i think that's not beyond the wit of man. but at the moment , too often this becomes moment, too often this becomes just a cudgel us to fight each other with an onslaught. your for the nhs . i think it needs to for the nhs. i think it needs to change or . it for the nhs. i think it needs to change or. it will die as many people very sadly do that it's somehow got upside down. we don't put enough emphasis on primary care, so people end up
10:14 pm
in hospital . the nanny is from in hospital. the nanny is from much worse than had they been spotted or treated in a more minor way much earlier on. and i think we've really got to rethink where the focus is , rethink where the focus is, whether it's from the care and making sure that people have those terrible foods that need massive hip replacements , etc, massive hip replacements, etc, that they are in a safe environment, that perhaps some of this online digital idea is going work. i am no expert . i going work. i am no expert. i think it's got to be a beginning to make sure people get the care early so that it doesn't to the very major problems later on. and that's true of virtually the diseases the nhs is worldwide, but not in the way the british think it . but not in the way the british think it. it's outcomes are not up with our european neighbours . neil fox yeah, i mean people are justifiably proud of the nhs
10:15 pm
and having this, you know, free health care and i think we want to do that, make sure that it's really efficient. the problem , really efficient. the problem, it's obviously just become very efficient and now what we really needis efficient and now what we really need is to work out why is it become inefficient? is it because there's too much middle management? i hear a lot. i've never worked in the nhs, so , you never worked in the nhs, so, you know, just, i'm just really know, i'm just, i'm just really spouting people have spouting what other people have said. need to why? said. but we need to work. why? it's inefficient because if you have private health care in this company, in this country , maybe company, in this country, maybe we get bupa. aviva and we need to get bupa. aviva and all other companies to try all the other companies to try and this problem, they and help look this problem, they run businesses and run them as businesses and they're efficient. make they're efficient. they make sure money. they sure they don't the money. they may sure would send may make sure would send centrally by resources so that pennies million or say no parasite tomorrow costs pennies million or say no parasite tomorrow cost s £2 a parasite tomorrow costs £2 a pack not ten. quit a pack . you pack not ten. quit a pack. you know, we had all these crazy stories coming out. so things like that are really obvious that needs out . but also that needs sorting out. but also what we need to do is we do need to modernise and sure, to modernise and make sure, people miss appointments people don't miss appointments or doctors or waste with our local doctors
10:16 pm
are local health care centre which was brilliant during lockdown have to say they did an awful lot of stuff virtually and they said they got through ten times as many patients. it was super efficient and the vast majority didn't need go in and they could get the advice they needed potentially online not so good maybe for a very elderly or a of clients or patients, a set of clients or patients, but i guess with a younger generation who will up with tech everyone getting better at that. also your local chemists they an awful lot you know they also been to medical school using wisdom wisely so people don't get go to the health centre or the hospital. there seems to be an awful lot can be done. i'm really glad that people are talking about it now not like a political hot potato, but just something we need talk about something we need to talk about . conversation has started. . the conversation has started. let's hope a really let's hope we get a really sensible solution to save it, to make it. efficient. i don't see arterielle against us. you want to jump in there? i might. gp was also fantastic in lockdown,
10:17 pm
but of the really worrying things that they told me was that so people come for appointments because they feel lost because they are lonely is very little outreach in our community and those are the people that need help most but also do up valuable time that doesn't they don't need to be seen and i think that's a brilliant point and what want is those people getting that support and not turning up at their local hospital because don't have an alternative. fascinating points what's your prescription for the nhs market? gbnews.uk well, next up , former gbnews.uk well, next up, former chief speechwriter to david cameron, former top aide to bofis cameron, former top aide to boris johnson . what does danny boris johnson. what does danny kruger mp make ? rishi sunak? can kruger mp make? rishi sunak? can he make brexit as a success. can he make brexit as a success. can he win the next election? he'll answer those questions .
10:18 pm
10:19 pm
10:20 pm
next what's your prescription ? the
10:21 pm
what's your prescription? the nhs? a quick one from richard. the nhs cannot be allowed to raise our taxes any more. we must confront the elephant in the and it's a dinosaur of the and agree it's a dinosaur of grotesque inefficiency that needs streamlining and partial privatisation. and i've got a similar email in relation to the german system from i'll get some more of your feedback , but it's more of your feedback, but it's time now for this . yes, it's time now for this. yes, it's time now for this. yes, it's time for malcolm eats in. i speak to the biggest names in the world of politics sport, showbiz and beyond. tonight the conservative mp danny kruger, who represents the historic market town of devon . i knew i'd market town of devon. i knew i'd struggle that. devizes in wiltshire . and i've been wiltshire. and i've been practising it all day . he first practising it all day. he first made his name in the party behind the scenes as speech to david cameron before political secretary to the then prime minister boris johnson . he that minister boris johnson. he that was of course, in the run up to 2019. he voted leave in 2016. sees brexit as an opportunity
10:22 pm
and believes our best days lie ahead. danny kruger welcome to gb news. thank you. mark. thank you. good to be with you. it's great to have you on the program. thank you forjoining program. thank you for joining us at the 11th hour. danny, what made you a conservative in the first place . good question. first place. good question. i was always a conservative. i was a different sort of conservative when i was younger. i was a thatcherite it's a small state libertarian. then i edmund burke at university and realised there's more to life than the pursuit of self—interest , the pursuit of self—interest, the invisible hand of the market. important as those things are and i became a communitarian and and i became a communitarian and a believer in tradition and in the inheritance of our country . the inheritance of our country. so, you know, i mean , i grew up so, you know, i mean, i grew up as a child of entrepreneurs and always was a prosperous, stable . my parents were immigrants in this country from south. so i've got a sense of loving this country, as it were , the
10:23 pm
country, as it were, the outside, even though i was born here. so i've got a mix of impulses, i guess, but i'm a i'm just an instinctive tory i just i know in my guts that it's right. but you were the recipient of an mba upon which i congratulate you for your work in the community. incredible work. for over a decade, you founded only connect, a project working in prisons to stop criminals reoffending. danny is the prison system working? and if not how do we fix it ? if it's if not how do we fix it? if it's not working ? it's absolutely not working? it's absolutely terrible. i'm it's a it's a sad indictment of many generations of were the efforts to reform it. i mean we sent too many the wrong people to prison we don't caption of criminals obviously we have a chronic crime we have a chronic reoffending problem. so the prison system not so the prison system is not fixing that fixing the criminals that we send that no because send in that it's no because they spend 23 hours a day lying on their backs watching tv and
10:24 pm
deaung on their backs watching tv and dealing drugs to each other. so the system is, i'm afraid to say, letting down both the general public and the potential victims of crime . but because victims of crime. but because it's letting down the criminals themselves who urgently need reform and it is possible to reform, most people , and we reform, most people, and we should be much ambitious about what we can do with the prison system and with the justice system and with the justice system as a whole. i'm not sure that we should be sending everyone we do send prison. everyone we do send to prison. while also need to while we also need to be catching serious criminals catching the serious criminals and them away for and putting them away for longer. you work closely, danny and putting them away for l
10:25 pm
there was prospect of breaking the logjam except by his courage and determination to do . and he and determination to do. and he followed a really good plan . so followed a really good plan. so i always honour him for that . i always honour him for that. but i'm afraid i think by the end when it came to it, the support in the party had just fallen away and he hadn't done enough to shore it up. and obviously covid we can all blame covid and you know. right that was the that was the of him but i'm afraid it was inevitable by by last summer. yeah i've got no doubt that rishi enjoys your fulsome support . doubt that rishi enjoys your fulsome support. i think that shares in rishi sunak are too low. that's the theme of my big opinion monologue, which people can watch on twitter at gb news. however, notwithstanding your support for our new prime minister , what does he need to minister, what does he need to do better ? needs to reassemble do better? needs to reassemble the coalition that swept us to
10:26 pm
power in 2019. we have lost millions of voters to labour , to millions of voters to labour, to fringe parties on right and worst all to apathy and indifference and, disillusionment and boris's achievement in 2019 was to mobilise people who believed in our country we believed in the potential of brexit and of conservatism and they spent the whole nation and we bought in virtually never voted votes before as well as mobilising our own base . so that's the own base. so that's the challenge. and we're not doing sufficient at the moment. we can all understand what happened last year, which led to rishi coming in with a very, very difficult political situation , difficult political situation, he hasn't yet been able to in the polls, but it's early days and he's doing the primary job that he came in to do what she had to do just to stabilise opposition as a nation economically and stabilise opposition labour as the government . the challenge now
10:27 pm
government. the challenge now over the next 18 months until the election is to be more radical, more authentically conservative, but in a way that genuinely connects with those floating voters are might, might or might not vote for us. and that isn't easy. but i think there is a root to it. and it's about reconnecting with the without 2019 coalition. so it's been much more successful and tough and getting it right on. the small boats and on on immigration. i think that means leaving the easier for i don't think we ever going to fix the small boats without that there's economic reforms to take place which we could discuss. but the other would mention, and i other thing would mention, and i think our appeal think is crucial to, our appeal and wasn't something that and it wasn't something that bofis and it wasn't something that boris of , but i and it wasn't something that boris of, but i think boris made much of, but i think is really crucial is invest it properly families, making properly in families, making families feel that the government's on their side, making system work making tax system work for families children families with children with dependent adults with older parents who need support. there's a hope set of reforms i think about that it being really authentically pro—family as well
10:28 pm
as supporting the community life that we all depend on locally and that is so crucial to people's sense of identity, the sense of security. so investment for communities and for families and communities and getting national story getting the national story right, particularly around immigration. are immigration. i think those are that's path victory for us. that's path to victory for us. you've amazing career former you've an amazing career former chief leader, writer , columnist chief leader, writer, columnist for, the telegraph newspaper , for, the telegraph newspaper, also great charity work. i mentioned that prison organisation and also you've done work with . the youth with done work with. the youth with young people and children and of course you were chief speechwriter for david cameron who i would humbly suggest a very underrated prime in what was an underrated government the coalition government who inherited an economic crisis but very much steadied the ship with the lib dems over five years on a future occasion have to have that conversation before we let you go, because we've got the papers coming in and we need to those shortly a quick on your rather talented mums . she's

10:33 pm
in two it's just gone 1030. it's time for tomorrow's papers. don't forget in the news agenda with my panel , do forget in the news agenda with my panel, do we demonise dieting ? is it old fashioned for the man to pay for dinner? but first, let's do this . yes, first, let's do this. yes, indeed. we've got monday's papers off the press with full panel reaction. let's have a look at the daily express and they lead with the following. bofis they lead with the following. boris putin told me i could kill you in a minute. boris johnson revealed that vladimir putin made astonishing and chilling threat to him in a phone call. i don't want to hurt you but with a missile it would only take 1 minutes and freddie explain to save headline and an explosive story . okay let's get some mail story. okay let's get some mail now. putin's to kill boris. i don't want to hurt , but with don't want to hurt, but with a missile, it would take seconds that story. once again, it's going to dominate a few
10:34 pm
headlines. i've got no doubt, and gives you a flavour of how vladimir putin conducts himself and what we're up against. by the way, we also have a very sad front page story in relation to broadcasting . esther rantzen . broadcasting. esther rantzen. i'm fighting lung cancer, but i'm fighting lung cancer, but i'm still optimistic. if you want to just come to me for a second, sam, because i would like to say that esther rantzen has been on this programme times. she's the ultimate professional when she's on. you wouldn't believe 82. she's wouldn't believe she's 82. she's articulate. she's still an amazing broadcaster. when i was growing up, i had three broadcasting heroes and they were terry wogan , cilla black were terry wogan, cilla black and esther rantzen , and she and esther rantzen, and she rightly sits on that list tv greats and we wish her a speedy recovery and can't wait to have esther back on the show soon. let's have a look at the eye paper next and what they lead with is sunak. paper next and what they lead with is sunak . and of course, with is sunak. and of course, that was the topic of my big opinion monologue sunak's allies blame johnson for tory sleaze after the pm sacked zahawi mp is
10:35 pm
it's a legacy of boris johnson's time in power encouraged tory chairman to try to cling on and is preventing rishi sunak being able to appeal to voters. oh, it seems like it's the blame boris campaign . okay, the independent campaign. okay, the independent next. what you so long rishi pm finally zahawi six months after we expose the scandal that's the independent seven ministerial code breaches include untrue claims about the independent he lashes out at media but to apologise i've got to say great journalism by the independent who in the end got their man the mirror now tories engulfed by rotten to the core sunak finally sacks zahawi over tax scandal but dithering under fire. the metro shamed zahawi , sacked, but metro shamed zahawi, sacked, but he's not sorry at all. tory chairman for serious breach of ministerial rules but blames the press also in the metro . we're press also in the metro. we're such bloomin good pals. katie
10:36 pm
katie, pericles, pop singer, her out with fiance they and his ex hashtag awkward . daily star hashtag awkward. daily star analysis and proper journalism pommy the librarian can't judge a baywatch pinup gal by her cover red hot pamela anderson wanted to a librarian but lost interest after being asked to appearin interest after being asked to appear in a men's mag. as you do . okay let's look at the telegraph. pm sacked zahawi be without a fair hearing allies tory chairman say sunak rushed remove him for political expediency and has ordered to reveal true a&e times and putin's threat to kill johnson. that story of herring the telegraph as well . and last but telegraph as well. and last but not least, the times. it's zahawi axed as sunak gets tough on standards rishi, sunak will take a zero tolerance approach to future breaches of the ministerial. to future breaches of the ministerial . after sacking ministerial. after sacking nadhim zahawi for failing to be honest about his tax affairs.
10:37 pm
according to senior allies . according to senior allies. also, millions will miss school in biggest strikes a decade. families face disruption on wednesday as striking teachers forced up to four and a half million pupils to stay away from school on the biggest day of industrial action for. a decade. those are your front pages reacting to that might all star panel we have former mep brexit party mep and art at rees—mogg television and radio presenter neil fox and playwright and political commentator emma burnell . terrific look at the burnell. terrific look at the striking teachers story . after striking teachers story. after two and a half years of lockdowns and doing lessons on zoom, this is the last thing young and children need, isn't it? emma i it's a very very upsetting situation for everyone . know a lot of teachers you'd that wouldn't you left north dwelling liberal like me when i know i've got in that game i to
10:38 pm
go to go on strike. yeah but they are feeling desperate they exhausted genuine lay not just that kind of exhaustion you get at the end of the day that kind of exhaustion, you get the end of exhaustion, you get the end of life five years. they are just so run down, so ground down. they're losing so many colleagues who are not being replaced. so people are doing more and more and for what feels because of inflation less and, less and less. and it just can't go on. so yes of course, i mean, i don't a single teacher who gets into it because of the money that go into it because they care about these. but they've also got be able to look after and live a healthy, sustainable life and the moment too many of them are failing that they just can't do that. and that's why they've reached the end of their tether. well, my view and then see alter is that no it does still action that no no it does still action by nhs staff should affect patients but it clearly has and
10:39 pm
will no industrial action by teaching staff should affect pupils, but it will and that's the rub industrial action and inevitably affects people using the service and children in this country don't have a choice but to use our educations service and i don't yet know because teachers don't have to toe head teachers don't have to toe head teachers whether they're striking or not whether my children will be at school on wednesday or not. it's also the same day as a train strike. i think teachers have to do so much in the that's not teaching and that is one of the problems. social workers, police officers. absolutely they've got to feed the kids when they come in. often breakfast for breakfast clubs, afterschool clubs, they're so much wraparound around that isn't teaching responsibility and that has put too great a burden on an awful lot of . our teachers and they lot of. our teachers and they have an absolute right but is
10:40 pm
becoming so but i don't our role the answer is we think teachers should be it's rather just about should be it's ratherjust about money strikes out more often about as much about terms and conditions as they are about money. so i do think it's important to make that case with i was with the unions that if they said fine, we'll change the terms and conditions but because of inflation there will be no pay of inflation there will be no pay rise. well there has to be some rise because everyone some pay rise because everyone it's inflation but try it's good inflation but you try to recently the old to buy your recently the old days you feel that the days no i hear you feel that the 5% that's been offered given the fact we've got a national debt 0 trillion, i is of £2.1 trillion, i mean, is balance of both and any deal will be about negotiating a balance of both. but you do to negotiate that and you have to in in good faith and negotiate it properly. and i think all of us have been very hard and we've discussed in discussed this before in this programme during for programme that during covid, for example money , trillions example magic money, trillions seem to be just thrown at a problem. but we'll just print money and we'll just buy whatever . we post—covid whatever. we need and post—covid . suddenly the money's all dried
10:41 pm
up and i think people probably thinking, on, we have thinking, well, hang on, we have been going through years now of where been getting where we have been getting proper pay rises and can't have one. now we've got to force the issue.i one. now we've got to force the issue. i mean, this is a much wider like the nhs is going to have be reformed, i think the have to be reformed, i think the education system they are talking needs talking about it now needs reforming obsession with reforming the obsession with exams the obsession with how young our necessarily maybe young our kids necessarily maybe go and everything go to school and everything he was breakfast and was saying. breakfast clubs and teachers often funding these teachers are often funding these breakfast yourselves . it's breakfast clubs yourselves. it's not just for charity now or councils authorities . they're councils or authorities. they're often putting their hands in their pockets because they their own pockets because they see coming in. so see these kids coming in. so now, whether that's now, now, whether that's a family breakdown, why their parents are potentially feeding them before they go off to school, i do not. but it's obviously a much wider issue. but it's something these teachers definitely having to deal did a lot stuff deal with. we did a lot of stuff with breakfast and i was with breakfast clubs and i was amazed like amazed that something like one in kids london, for in four kids in london, for example, go to a example, actually go to a breakfast club. was quite breakfast club. and i was quite staggered , that statistic. so staggered, that statistic. so all that and being police and
10:42 pm
all of that and being police and health care can't teach kids in other countries they will sit in a class, they will be because they can't be physically . yeah. they can't be physically. yeah. well i have a personal anecdote a of a family friend who's a primary teacher who was moved to tears when they opened a lunch box and found a kit—kat and a can of . red bull. and this box and found a kit—kat and a can of. red bull. and this is obviously probably a rare occurrence, but indicative of what teachers often face. yeah let's have a look at the and on c r to zahawi as sunak gets tough standards, are we seeing a difference side to the prime minister now and has he fixed and solved the problem by firing him? i very easy to argue both ways that he did follow due process, that he had said he would and at the end of it it would and at the end of it it would seem that the very final moments were slightly rushed through. but he got the conclusions and acted very, very quickly now that seems fair
10:43 pm
enough but has he set a precedent for what happens ? precedent for what happens? anyone else breaks the minister or code in any way indeed. but wasn't that the spot of boris johnson that he couldn't fire people? for example, he didn't fire. matt hancock after the camera, six scenes that we all enjoyed . he didn't fire dominic enjoyed. he didn't fire dominic cummings for the ridiculous pantomime in, the rose garden of number ten. this was a prime minister that suffered political damage from not firing people. he but you can suffer damage from . and if you alienate people from. and if you alienate people by firing too hastily, you can lose that wing of support. by firing too hastily, you can lose that wing of support . and lose that wing of support. and if you let people hang around and cause more trouble , you lose and cause more trouble, you lose different wing of support . and i different wing of support. and i think actually on this one, cenac has probably tread trodden the right course to have a process to follow the conclusion we were talking nicknames last night neil i'm just wondering whether we now have ruthless
10:44 pm
rishi i don't think ruthless. rishi i don't think ruthless. rishi you earlier on it was a case of the innocent until proven guilty. okay and so they've done the due process they've done the due process they've worked out and then okay he has broken the code , he needs he has broken the code, he needs to go and then he's acted pretty swiftly, very swiftly and he has gone. swiftly, very swiftly and he has gone . it's now left to another gone. it's now left to another problem. of course, it's the blame game going now as to, you know , whose fault is all this , know, whose fault is all this, doesn't it feel like a contrast 7 doesn't it feel like a contrast ? boris johnson's administration doesn't feel decisive. it's been nipped in the bud. well, it does . look, the very top of the show we were talking about in your 100 days of the first hundred days, nothing's been particularly crazy or loud . it's particularly crazy or loud. it's just been a bit stable . that's just been a bit stable. that's in a way what i think we need as a nation. but it brings not bad every now and again. it shouldn't soap opera shouldn't be giant soap opera every because it's become every day because it's become a bit like that. politics and actually when i was a kid growing it was just a bit growing up, it was just a bit dull. they got on with dull. but they got on with a job, hopefully, and that's all we care about. are they good at
10:45 pm
their job? we care about. are they good at theirjob? because i don't need him be brilliant. so him to be funny brilliant. so come a poem with me. come and have a poem with me. it's well, i know all it's a job. well, i know all them. they to agree? them. do they tend to agree? that the theme of my that was the theme of my monologue is it doesn't have to be a great he has be a great be a great he has to be a great prime minister the issue is labour supporters sunak has labour supporters that sunak has acted he solved acted decisively, he solved a political and now he political problem and now he move he's had days in move on. he's had 100 days in office . this story has been office. this story has been rumbling on for at least 14 of them. that's quite percentage of those hundred days that he's been dealing with this personnel problem . if he had suspended problem. if he had suspended zahawi during the investigation that would have been decisive . that would have been decisive. this was not decisive. you have to pmqs ago. he was saying to see here a week later me saying, oh, myself up an inquiry. a week after that, he that it's not decisive . i think you're i think decisive. i think you're i think you're doing a lovely job at trying to tell yourself that it is but you even though it's not mark you're not in it. well what i did say on yesterday's show is i did say on yesterday's show is i think should have stepped
10:46 pm
aside this emerged. yeah. because he should have been made to step aside if he he's a good guy. i've interviewed him on the show but he should have done that because if there was no case to answer and he was cleared any wrongdoing, he cleared of any wrongdoing, he could glorious political could make a glorious political comeback he comeback, which i'm sure he would i think if you would have. but i think if you look three different look at these three different front pages , you've got the old front pages, you've got the old saying, sunak ali's blame allies blame tories . you've blame johnson for tories. you've got the daily telegraph, pm sacked zahawi without a fair heanng sacked zahawi without a fair hearing . and then you've got the hearing. and then you've got the times saying zahawi axe too soon. it gets tough on standards. there is no echo in a narrative that is being set and thatis narrative that is being set and that is a real. narrative that is being set and that is a real . okay, we'll that is a real. okay, we'll we'll get to more big stories from papers next including do we demonise dieting? is it old fashioned the man to pay for dinner and that story in the sun newspaper , orlando bloom's in newspaper, orlando bloom's in touch with his ex. how does the wife feel about that one. we'll discuss that .

10:51 pm
swaps pizza , a salad with the swaps pizza, a salad with the rise of eating disorders and obesity. she wants to be considerate and careful with the language around dieting and send the right message to her kids. it begs the question, do we demonise dieting ? well shouldn't demonise dieting? well shouldn't demonise dieting? well shouldn't demonise dieting, but think what we have to do is try and why potentially we or people are overweight and we need to actually focus on body shape necessarily, but on health, health, fitness and eating . and health, fitness and eating. and that's got to start at home. it's got to start in the school as well. but my team were talking about it earlier in the show and. they were saying that quite often, if go on a diet, people try to talk you out of it you so it's like oh go on you know so it's like oh go on you know so it's like oh go on you you can have this cake you can you can have this cake and all that peer and then there's other thing where go on there's other thing where go on the which is very the keto diet which is very popular. and people oh popular. yeah and people say oh no do that, i can kill no you can't do that, i can kill you. that's really unhealthy. well that like cake to work, well that was like cake to work, you can't that you know. now you can't that anymore you're in a anymore because you're in a way
10:52 pm
helping people fatter and helping people get fatter and unhealthy. you mustn't do that anymore. look, these things all come seems it's all come to down it seems it's all got bit unbalance at the got a bit unbalance just at the moment. i need to moment. you know, i need to a few pounds. i've told my i'm really to try and lose a really going to try and lose a few don't think it's few pounds. i don't think it's bad tell my kids trying to do bad to tell my kids trying to do that. they're very healthy that. they're all very healthy and go, okay, dad, and you kind of go, okay, dad, you lose a pounds. and you to lose a few pounds. and actually if they were to that, don't eat a slice of pizza. you have to sort of well, have to sort of go, well, i shouldn't but demonising i think it think we it would be crazy i think we just have to be sense well and have a conversation that is about all of the social about and not all of the social media people are paranoid while they look like all the time so rightly. yeah. i i think rightly. yeah. i mean i think the is also is that the issue is also is that i think sometimes when people go on diets they don't feel very supportive . i i obviously have supportive. i i obviously have very complex feelings around this. i used be 25 and a half stone and i put on a bit of weight over christmas. i'm to lose it again. but i have an incredibly you look at my body weight so unbelievable and partly i had some surgery to
