were closed after a man was arrested on suspicion of explosive offences. derbyshire said they find a number of suspicious but it is not being treated as a terrorist incident incident . tv online and dab+ incident. tv online and dab+ radio is gb news now it's time for headliners . for headliners. hello, i'm leo kearse and welcome headliners. your first look at sunday's papers . me your first look at sunday's papers. me tonight are the your first look at sunday's papers . me tonight are the two papers. me tonight are the two fabulous comedians the best that are available in their price bracket in the saturday night. jonathan coogan and chris weston . but first, let's have a quick look at sunday's front pages . look at sunday's front pages. the sunday telegraph has trust . the sunday telegraph has trust. i was brought down by the left wing economic establishment. i was brought down by the left wing economic establishment . the wing economic establishment. the sunday times as sunak's threat to . pull the sunday times as sunak's threat to. pull the uk sunday times as sunak's threat to . pull the uk out of each to. pull the uk out of each

other. the sunday mirror has millionaire politic and shamed my hell as mp sleeve the sun on sunday has i took harry's virginity so we're going to be covering that later and see what she said. the sunday express has lives at risk after plan is ditched in the nhs. the daily star has has glitter brawl and those were your front pages . those were your front pages. let's kick . let's kick things let's kick. let's kick things off then what is the have in the front cover of jonathan. well so the times has rishi sunak threat to pull the uk out of eec while rishi is known his pull out game. first and foremost and rishi sunak . game. first and foremost and rishi sunak. he's prepared to take britain out of the european convention on human rights after being warned that 65,000 illegal immigrant migrants are expected to come to the this year. so official estimates there will be almost a 50% increase in illegal

on last year, when 45,000 claimed asylum. yeah, it's already pretty high. last year it was quite high and the numbers are predicted to be higher. and so sunak and suella braverman . the home secretary braverman. the home secretary a fine launching trend for the most draconian, apparently immigration legislation seen in this . officials the this country. officials say the plans unveiled weeks will plans to be unveiled weeks will take britain to boundaries take britain to the boundaries of international law. so i think they're really make they're trying to really make these rules as stringent as possible. they're still trying to keep it within barriers that previously you know that's that exist moment. so will exist at the moment. so will they away with it.7 if not, they get away with it.7 if not, they'll have to withdraw all they're pushback they're having pushback from from civil servants in the uk and some some pushback from in europe. chris, have you got anything to add to this. what have i got to add .7 yeah, i think have i got to add.7 yeah, i think he's stuck between a rock and a hard place. i mean, surely he's got be we can't have him letting us down on one of his five glittering promises. yeah so did he say, like, just me on my promise? well, yeah. judge, i want held to account. want to be held to account. well, so naturally . i don't

well, so naturally. i don't know. politicians mean it . they know. politicians mean it. they say want to held to say they want to be held to account. i think that's most the thing they don't want. but this is of this this rumbled on is some of this this rumbled on for for some time for a you know, for some time now. and, i mean year the legal channel crossings were just i mean just affecting mean they're just affecting the levels costing the levels and it's costing the country literally billions, not just billions to just millions, but billions to those the people. those and process the people. and it's a serious and it's just it's a serious situation. we've got hole situation. we've got a hole industry of lawyers, human rights lawyers up to rights lawyers sprung up to ensure that, you know, once people set foot in this country, they can stay . it's always they can stay. it's always it's not always the most as well as leaping the queue front of in front of legal migrants , but not front of legal migrants, but not always most salubrious always the most salubrious people. there's, you know, criminal elements. there have been the field maternity bomber in liverpool was . a was a it was in liverpool was. a was a it was an asylum really. well it's a very dangerous journey to make . very dangerous journey to make. so that's almost incentivising, putting yourself in a very dangerous. oh, totally. you want you want it to look rock solid. you want it to be that if this

happens, then this so that you don't under this grey area of people thinking it's worth it. sure, it's tragic. yeah. i mean, there's lots of unnecessary deaths it. yeah, is. deaths around it. yeah, it is. what's. what's best solution what's. what's the best solution to no idea. well, to this? i've no idea. well, australia reduce australia managed reduce their, their equivalent of cross—channel migrants obviously their a bit bigger because their is a bit bigger because there you they're a proper there are you they're a proper proper island they reduced proper island but they reduced it to pretty much zero by by just anybody that comes just seeing anybody that comes illegally then rescinds sentences you forfeit you don't forfeit the right to state and also you get processed offshore so you just remove that incentive to come illegally . and incentive to come illegally. and so yeah. so the telegraph now we've got someone on the liz truss. liz truss that was brought down by left wing economic establishment. so liz truss, is she going to make a comeback, isn't she all the important people are saying no . important people are saying no. but just taught me, leo but as you just taught me, leo just found out politicians don't always tell the truth. so i refuse that . it's refuse to believe that. it's shocking, isn't it? so she's on monday. there's going to be a pre—recorded interview with a

major national broadcaster. all we know is it's not the bbc. it might be as i think i think she might be as i think i think she might be as i think i think she might be on anything you think i pick it up i think know was going to be on tonight o'clock andrew. no no it's fine. okay. i reckon they're going to bump nick dixon again. no, i don't. so, yeah. exciting. we're going to seems that a lot to find out. it seems that a lot of the people got support of the people have got support for ideas about reducing tax for her ideas about reducing tax , support she's , not support for her. she's a bit a political billiono. bit of a political billiono. well, this is the thing. i mean she says you one of one of our allies says that her tax cut plan failed because of institutional barriers in a way. and it's like, no, it spooked markets didn't markets because she didn't announce any is all going to be by borrowing she didn't announce any any spending cuts to go along with the cuts. so you along with the tax cuts. so you know all this attacking we are going massively borrowing going to massively borrowing that's that's going to that's going to that's going to worry lend the worry people who lend the country you it's like country if you know it's like you lend somebody money and then all of a sudden you see them you know, borrowing even money by and rule that they don't and rule x is that they don't need you know. think if she

need you know. so i think if she if she had use public if she had a no use public sector cuts people would have had more more faith in the last thing they understand. well something out in something that jumped out me in this was that i'm this article was saying that i'm so written a 3000 word so she has written a 3000 word essay about policies and the sunday telegraph and all i can think somebody has think about is somebody has discovered gpt she's discovered that gpt she's done a homework jp to see that? that's what you come up with. oh right. and i'm running a country that's. what we need to do, we can run a netherlands robot . i'm can run a netherlands robot. i'm in the market for a competent . i in the market for a competent. i mean, normally when the country's in this sort state, you can you can vote in the conservatives fix it. but we don't have that option because are you saying you want a sex bot replace liz that. bot to replace liz truss that. well what i've read the well from what i've read the better actually. be better actually. would we be able tell difference. that's able to tell difference. that's all. all my. no, no, all. that's all my. no, no, there's. i mean she says she's going she's going to stand going to she's going to stand again in safe seat. i don't again in a safe seat. i don't think there are any safe seats for tories anymore. but for the tories anymore. but there's a story the there's also a story in the sunday times biden sunday times about biden shooting a i mean he didn't shooting down a i mean he didn't do would trump

do it himself. trump would trump would it himself. would have done it himself. spaceballs we about spaceballs are we worried about this i've been hearing this balloon? i've been hearing before. been down, but before. it's been shot down, but i understand. are i don't understand. are they taking from all the taking information from all the time when it's in the sky? or is it, old fashioned holiday it, like, old fashioned holiday snaps?i it, like, old fashioned holiday snaps? i have to wait to get it back to china and get that balloon technology as advanced lately from a box brownie lately from having a box brownie to look still got the balloon but i think it was giving stuff back there wasn't like a tail of one cable just being slowly unwound with a yoghurt ball the other end it that pleased other end it that you pleased see this balloon shot down i like to think of the kid's birthday party went wrong i think john's crying like oh yeah and the six year old being chinese would be working in a factory, making some anyway know we've been on the sunday express jonathan what have they gotten from it. yeah this isn't very nice news. so doctors warn thousands at risk after thousands lives at risk after long cancer is ditched. so long term cancer is ditched. so in letter to , the health in a letter to, the health secretary, oncologists say secretary, the oncologists say that merging the promised ten year scheme specifically targeting multi targeting cancer into a multi disease that a range of

disease strategy that a range of illnesses means services will be lost wilderness for lost in the wilderness for a decade. professor richard decade. so professor richard sullivan says will sullivan says it will leave england only a handful england as one of only a handful of countries, including north korea and afghanistan good bedfellows without a dedicated national standalone cancer plan. so it really seems what i've read here that this doesn't seem to be particularly well—thought—out. i mean, i'm sure there's a reasoning to it, but almost every country has its strategy with strategy for dealing with cancen strategy for dealing with cancer. we've of cancer. and now we've kind of merged multi disease merged it into a multi disease thing. i would have thought cancer kills many cancer is because kills so many people in fact. so people a year, in fact. so people's lives that this needs to have its own very almost a war it so speak. well they war on it so to speak. well they announced cancer some announced war on cancer some idea the yeah i it goes better in the war on drugs or the war on terror but but yeah, i mean, apparently cancer is the number of people diagnosed is set to rise by a third by 2040. so there's going to be millions of people, half a million people half million people year half million people a year diagnosed cancer i guess because we're getting people living longer . but we're getting people living

longer. but isn't this hangover from the lockdowns and the missed screening so many people heard about it. so there are so many people who didn't get to have the treatment they needed because of covid. and now it's sort of adding to that problem really. this is another of really. so this is another of wishes but one of his big wishes. but one of his big problem is part of the nhs. i mean, yeah, it says every four weeks of treatment delay increases the of death by% increases the risk of death by% right. it's got to be quicker. yeah, absolutely. and wales, northern ireland and have their own strategies . england's northern ireland and have their own strategies. england's going to be the only place . i'll go to be the only place. i'll go back and see my folks and get registered there anyway. finally, the sun on sunday and they solved the we've all been stuck on they have i'm the old me someone i'm older lady who took prince harry's virginity it was only 5 minutes. come on, there's no class in this. sasha walpole , who's 40? i don't know walpole, who's 40? i don't know if that's relevant. she she. she's. she's told the sun that it was her. she says, i'm the

woman who took harry's virginity . it was literally wham bam between two friends, literally all figurative . maybe it was all figurative. maybe it was musical . don't know. the sex was musical. don't know. the sex was passionate and sparky because we shouldn't have doing it right but he was 16, so that's not why they shouldn't have been doing it because she she was 18. yes yeah, he's yeah, yeah. yeah. that's that's good times when they see older women . i mean not they see older women. i mean not much . well no, not much. much. well no, not much. i thought they meant 40 at the time but no you are a prince you just be working your way through like supermodels every day. not like supermodels every day. not like behind the poverty. i think you'd be doing the prince andrew thing rather than the. no, no, the prince andrew thing. i'd be doing the. good prince. doing the. he's a good prince. the artist prince, formerly known . yeah, i've been doing his known. yeah, i've been doing his thing. okay. wow you'd be, like, the actual comics have low self—esteem. i think it's . self—esteem. i think it's. really great that you're bucking the trend. you despite its great. yeah. that's true. i'm let's see if i was creating too

much let's see if we break break jonathan down more after the break. those are the front pages. and coming up after the break, in a couple of minutes, we'll have nicholas sturgeon feeling the virgin muslim leaders marriage is leaders saying marriage is breeders. it's going to be breeders. well, it's going to be alive. in just a alive. we'll see you in just a couple minutes .

welcome back to headline i'm your host, leo kearse. i'm comedian panel tonight is made up of jonathan cogan and created it with an to the observer first and boris is host but the legacy has been stalled by government bureaucracy jonathan . who'd have bureaucracy jonathan. who'd have thought that the government being bureaucratic. i know they're normally so quick and efficient, of efficient, so revealed ten of bohs efficient, so revealed ten of boris promised 40 new boris johnson's promised 40 new hospital projects have permission for only a quarter of the 40 hospital construction projects that were the heart projects that were at the heart of johnson's 2019 general

of boris johnson's 2019 general election manifesto have secured full permission . so full planning permission. so ministers have claimed that the hospitals will be by 2030, despite concerns from health chiefs and economists that that woefully insufficient funding and rising costs will the plan and rising costs will the plan and put nhs capacity at risk. however, and investigations revealed that only like a of these actually have the planning permission go ahead. so what's happenedis permission go ahead. so what's happened is a politician has promised something as part of his campaign and then once he was in power has not followed through with that promise. i mean, this is a but sounded mean, this is a but it sounded like i mean , we need 40 new like i mean, we need 40 new hospitals. do we really i mean, surely we just need staff in the hospital, those that we've already you know, already got the nhs, you know, the old ones are crumbling, the old ones crumbling, some of old ones are crumbling, some of them ones. well we're them really old ones. well we're supposed them. supposed to be replacing them. still hospitals still got 284 hospitals predating the nhs oh really. predating the nhs so. oh really. and apparently lots of them the leaking there's huge leaking there's a huge maintenance backlog they maintenance backlog but they built buildings . well built the built buildings. well i peter, i do think that i think peter, i do think that also i've got some sympathy with

bohs also i've got some sympathy with boris because used to work in construct and planning is a nightmare . and just because you nightmare. and just because you don't have it today doesn't mean he should lobby his mp to give you the milk because they're very slow and. he is an mp, the right term. something about beating boris right into your mp to get some planning permission moved along . you know you can moved along. you know you can any time . yes, sir. yes, there . any time. yes, sir. yes, there. that planning risk. everything takes longer. it's more expensive and takes longer than you think. it's going to do that is across. yeah, totally it was the of my. yeah yeah it's the bane of my. yeah yeah it's very and tape, very difficult and this tape, i mean is just a sort of an mean this is just a sort of an example the red tape that's example of the red tape that's holding britain back and nimby ism and planning permission. you know, of the things are know, some of the things are really back obsolete really holding back obsolete well as well as you development and an investment in the public sector. well, the sake of sector. well, for the sake of ofcom, i disagree . could you ofcom, i disagree. could you elaborate on that? absolutely not. moving on the telegraph, do you think as boris is fault, that he shouldn't have the red tape?i that he shouldn't have the red

tape? i work for big tax. for red tape. no, i'm you. i used to work for a relatively small company that was trying to expand and planning permission. i was trying to look new i was trying to look for new sites company. right. sites for this company. right. and that was bottleneck. and it's like, well, this just it's like, well, this was just after come guys, we after covid. come on, guys, we need use economy going. to need to use economy going. we to really employment really find employment and we to take you're building houses take it. you're building houses or something, you know actually , for bruce doggy , i was working for bruce doggy day company. so day care, wonderful company. so to break that, they'd like to do for school. yeah. so it is a growing business. what be if we are allowed to i don't want game on groomed labradors running over does that make me really does this . yeah exactly cockapoo does this. yeah exactly cockapoo is they do have grooming as well actually so work for a grooming gang. that's interesting, right? the sunday telegraph. now and fraud is becoming so prevalent that it's a threat to national security. it is the government is actually going to take it more seriously fraud is going to be reclassified it as a threat

to national security under government plans is going to be to the strategic policing requirement and that means that force is going to be required by to treat fraud as a major priority. some people are saying the police are going to take this more seriously than painting their cars in rainbow colours. i don't know if that's definitely going to happen, but at moment, probably only one at the moment, probably only one in a thousand offences are actually, know, about this, actually, you know, about this, don't because to don't you? because you used to work in. yeah, i was a criminal intelligence analyst but you have row to the have one in a row to the actually are solved. i mean bear in mind that is there is a far higher rate than burglary but one in a thousand that's that's ridiculous. this is day to frauds like you know bank scams and all that kind of stuff. so my girlfriend is a complete victim for this kind of stuff. maybe every months she maybe once every months she comes new story. comes to me with a new story. i woke up about midday one day and i thought five or six messages from saying, right, i've had from her saying, right, i've had a call from i've gone from her saying, right, i've had a get from i've gone from her saying, right, i've had a get some i've gone from her saying, right, i've had a get some amazon i've gone from her saying, right, i've had a get some amazon vouchers|e from her saying, right, i've had a get some amazon vouchers from to get some amazon vouchers from the post office, but i got this whole for him. i do it. i do

that. she's like, you want break up you can do the up with her, you can just do the i do it. i like the smart i didn't do it. i like the smart one. oh, god, that's nice to me. what do you think? this this be why the police haven't been it? because as, you know, because it's seen, as, you know, almost some people. almost a crime for some people. no, not seen for your no, i'm not seen for your girlfriend. but for some people it that they bring on it is a crime that they bring on themselves. mean, if you if themselves. i mean, if you if you're you want purchase you're if you want to purchase amazon vouchers hmrc see amazon vouchers for hmrc see surely bells should amazon vouchers for hmrc see surgoing bells should amazon vouchers for hmrc see surgoing off bells should amazon vouchers for hmrc see surgoing off so bells should amazon vouchers for hmrc see surgoing off so here ells should amazon vouchers for hmrc see surgoing off so here i.ls should amazon vouchers for hmrc see surgoing off so here i thoughtd be going off so here i thought amazon the government had amazon and the government had merged it's so and merged because it's so big and they pay themselves with it and she instagram hacked. so she got her instagram hacked. so it's constant struggle it's like a constant struggle for like put out fires and for me to like put out fires and i'm particularly bright i'm not particularly bright myself, brought myself, so i kind of get brought in with the whole thing. in along with the whole thing. but apparently people but so apparently to 300 people a year, are at risk. a year, lives are at risk. and at first thought, well, that at first i thought, well, that seems bit like yes, because seems a bit like yes, because they get depressed and because they get depressed and because the boyfriend on the the boyfriend mentions on the telly, makes people self—harm telly, it makes people self—harm and rest and feel suicide, all the rest of the of it. i had to of the brunt of it. i had to sort it out. well, we're all victims, aren't we? thought i was victim stock fraud. the was victim of a stock fraud. the ding . anyway, speaking ding dong. anyway, speaking things. we're stopping, doing

smoking has fallen out of fashion in the uk as everyone's moved on to vaping. little electronic tubes, presumably get ready for the day when robots demand we fully in some countries still like to wreck the lungs the old fashioned way. jonathan hobart okay, so what world's biggest smokers revealed an map shows how almost half of adults one pacific island. i didn't say specific i almost did but still up every day but the rate is below 5% in parts of africa. so it's already the fastest nation in the world. but nauru unwanted accolades, nauru don't stop there. but the remote island nestled away in the pacific also topped the charts for smoking. so just under half of adults living there, 48.5% smoke, whereas at the other end of the spectrum, smoking prevalence are below 5. in parts of africa , the ghana comes of africa, the ghana comes bottom of the palm , according to bottom of the palm, according to the most recent global data for 2020, published by the data tracking site. but it's interesting little to see that cultural thing. there's an economic it only more economic thing to it only more wealthy countries have a

propensity or a proclivity to smoke , but they have a peak. and smoke, but they have a peak. and then it goes down again, which i guess i'm in the uk you know, there's a peak. i know my father was given a lighter on his probably 14th birthday to encourage smoke. it's encourage him to smoke. it's seen a thing to do, but seen as a good thing to do, but then declines as people work out. is bad. but out. that is that is bad. but what's interesting , know, what's interesting, you know, ghana nigeria, smoking ghana and nigeria, smoking rates are low wouldn't, you are so low, so low wouldn't, you feel a freak, a party. you feel like a freak, a party. you couldn't say, hey, you want to come outside no. nobody come outside a fact? no. nobody else . will you be, like, the else. will you be, like, the coolest at the we can coolest guy at the bar? we can do the one whatsapp we can do that. the one whatsapp we can see on the screen right there. there's actually a graphic be able see this radio, but able to see this on radio, but basically shows we've basically just shows what we've been so been talking about. so throughout russia throughout europe and russia india, southeast asia, smoking rates high , whereas in rates are very high, whereas in south america, australia and africa, smoking are generally really low . it's interesting how really low. it's interesting how the concentrate and considering tobacco came from from south america you think it'd be more popular there? yeah, well, i think the interesting is that advertising seems to make a difference i'm not stunned by

that, that's a bit nanny that, but that's a bit nanny state ish , isn't it? it's like state ish, isn't it? it's like we're being we're stopped by another but with a truly another thing but with a truly addictive and harmful substance as hard as you know the free market guy , i feel you should be market guy, i feel you should be able to advertise your product, but then it's harm. i don't know what's the answer? i do not know. yeah, if they do, if the if let them do it to if we let them do it to cigarettes, then they'll do to nutella. yeah. well that's the thing joy lift in the thing we know joy lift in the eventually. that's the eventually. well that's the thing licences you thing in off licences now you can't see cigarette boxes can't see the cigarette boxes but see the most bright but you can see the most bright displays of all these coloured vapes just like enticing. they look yeah , look like opal fruit. so yeah, my age and they taste like fruit. know that fruit. delicious, you know that 7 fruit. delicious, you know that ? them. yeah. you ? i've tried them. yeah. you don't mind walking through don't even mind walking through a cloud of smoke from a vehicle. it watermelon it smells like watermelon instead anyway, instead of bleach. anyway, the telegraph now and leaders have concerns about sexual politics straying religion. it straying into religion. it doesn't sound like there's going to be any same sex marriages happening in mosques anytime soon. of all, it's not soon. first of all, it's not just concerns. they've actually written , said muslim written a letter, said muslim leader . this written a letter, said muslim leader. this chap, paul saladin

armstrong. he's the managing director of , the association of director of, the association of british. he's written to the archbishop of canterbury, warning him about concerns to schoolchildren . so the idea is schoolchildren. so the idea is that this cause concern that muslim children start to get taken out of schools and the way he phrases , he says the lack of he phrases, he says the lack of open and inclusive regarding the traditional understanding of marriage within faith communities isn't getting a first. which is interesting because he's he's kind of using the woke language there isn't anything. you know tradition getting in in the no you getting a look in in the no you yeah it's generally well it's interesting but surely i mean this is the problem with faith in schools isn't it like we can't saying well if you're this faith you have this education and on that doesn't seem right i remember back in the assembly the jehovah's witness kids had to leave because they weren't allowed to have their birth dates , her birth dates, and they dates, her birth dates, and they didn't smarty assembly. didn't get the smarty assembly. and was highlight. well, and that was a highlight. well, the in assembly isn't the small to in assembly isn't as important it's

as important as your gcse it's oh. sexual understanding because you need to know what's. i didn't have a sexual understanding till i was halfway through secondary school. i mean, what do you what do you think i mean, did you go to think of i mean, did you go to a religious school? no no, i didn't. it was mixed. it was a language. yeah. but language. yeah. yeah yeah. but i mean, would you make the mean, would you make of the because there does seem to be a pushin because there does seem to be a push in the church england to do something open have sex something open up have same sex and sort of gender and push sort of gender ideology. having ideology. they're having their pride, altars which is pride, flags on altars which is incredibly expensive because it changes 5 minutes. so you've got in triangles for trans and all the rest of it. well yeah. i mean i do kind of see i mean it's essentially a clash of ideas and a cultural culture because it's i guess it's a more conservative religion where you would focus on traditional marriage if that's not being taught that that's where the clash is coming. and traditional marriage man and five marriage between man and five women, that's that's seems is quite an extreme claim of that. that's not being taught at all find that hard but i'm surely it's just the only teaching everything now. this is almost

like they're not like implying they're not teaching. traditional teaching. remember, traditional marriage taught in primary marriage being taught in primary schools. then just schools. it was back then just the assumption. and then there are also alternatives like yeah then what i think homeschool everyone should behind the sunday times no. and apparently nicholas recent attempt to allow rape access to women's spaces wasn't as popular as she had hopedit wasn't as popular as she had hoped it would be. you know, it didn't go down like she thought it was getting. so snp sturgeon and independents fall in poll after ala bryson trans prisoner and also support for the for nicholas sturgeon and for scottish has fallen sharply as the party's crisis over transgender rights deepened. so backing for the party has slumped to its lowest in five years. in the latest yougov poll and voting intentions for westminster , the worst since westminster, the worst since 2019. so this case which i'm sure everyone's seen, it's all over the news. it was a criminal who was male the time when he did the crimes and then that

transitioned to rape to rape convict a convicted. so these are you know these are really really horrible crimes attacks on women and then this prisoner was was so during the during the court process he decided he was actually a woman under nicola sturgeon's new gender reform bill. yeah you can just self—identify you can just say i'm a woman and i'd say don't if she convince a panel she's backed out and she's changed her mind. now she's saying that he was making up so. nicola nicholas sturgeon well there's that. a because that. there's a fruity because you was obviously you know, this was obviously a man exploited in the man who's exploited in the south. i dismissed to go to south. i dismissed him to go to a jail and a women's jail and understandably a fruity because there's a danger to there's a there's a danger to women you send a double women if you send a double rapist to a women's jail you know, vulnerable women. i know, are vulnerable women. i mean, they're mean, people say they're vulnerable. women's jail vulnerable. it's a women's jail in the least women in scotland. the least women you could get. but anyway, could possibly get. but anyway, it's a terrible idea . so it's still a terrible idea. so again, no, nicola sturgeon despite saying your anybody says that a woman is a woman she's no back then i liberation or green whatever his or her name is

depending on where you stand on the gender ideology spectrum sent him to a man's a male prison , which makes a mockery of prison, which makes a mockery of she was she was pushing through parliament and she had a keir starmer moment didn't you're a journalist trying to ask her to be clear this she couldn't be clear this and she couldn't be clear this and she couldn't be and it's interesting to me this these i mean this is obvious point but the more of this stuff that happens the more i think puts people trans i think it puts people trans rights because in the rights doesn't because in the beginning still thinking well beginning still thinking oh well maybe have a trans and maybe they can have a trans and maybe they can have a trans and maybe they can have a trans and maybe they could do this. and then you start saying, oh, no, i've been the posey i've been some of the posey parker you know, feminist parker stuff. you know, feminist who's a tough just says, who's a tough and she just says, no, not getting involved in no, i'm not getting involved in this because of course, once this because. of course, once you start to try and muddle way through it, then there might be more things need to try more things that you need to try and navigate and it just if you'd ask me two or three years ago, i would have said, oh yeah, trans people i wouldn't have i wouldn't occurred me wouldn't have occurred to me that a problem. yeah that could be a problem. yeah turns it is. but then a few turns out it is. but then a few years there probably weren't years ago there probably weren't predatory trying predatory males trying to exploit system quite the

exploit the system and quite the same because it's not trans same way because it's not trans people, want to go people, it's men that want to go and commit further sex crimes. yeah anyway, that's this yeah anyway, that's it for this . tuned shelby . these . stay tuned for shelby. these designer babies trans crazies and some other stories that don't rhyme see you after the .

break welcome back to headline . we go welcome back to headline. we go to the sunday telegraph now. we know britain is obesity epidemic has left us all disgustingly fat present excluded, of course. but did we get so far? i always it was because mars bars taste better deep fried than they do steamed . but chris, can you steamed. but chris, can you enlighten us? well, you're not far off . you'll be shocked to far off. you'll be shocked to hear that we are , a nation of hear that we are, a nation of overeaters adults in the uk, are consuming to 50% more calories than they realise . admit it's than they realise. admit it's done. they admit i mean, we've

all had a lockdown. do you ever look down started. it was like marge wasn't it. so i was having eggs every day . i've sometimes eggs every day. i've sometimes boiled mainly stuff . yeah, it's. boiled mainly stuff. yeah, it's. it's bad . everyone's, everyone's it's bad. everyone's, everyone's getting bigger. in the it's bad. everyone's, everyone's getting bigger . in the 1970s, getting bigger. in the 1970s, less than % of adults in were less than% of adults in were obese. less than% of adults in were obese . now, well, 20, 21, 25.9% obese. now, well, 20, 21, 25.9% were based. 37.9 are overweight. apparently . 50.7% of the uk diet apparently. 50.7% of the uk diet comes from processed foods. right. which is low, isn't it? there's a story tonight about processed food being linked to cancer and stroke. yeah, yeah. we went to the depression to, you know, obesity yeah, all kinds of illnesses. it was through production as well. yeah that's like the of food isn't it. it's made this super stimulus, right? i've heard this lovely phrase , hyper palatable lovely phrase, hyper palatable food. yeah okay. which is that's how i describe my comedy is helpful to no one. no. yeah. no it's a real shame because like you say the obesity rate is just

skyrocketing and it's pushed this of narrative that, yeah, you should eat the food pyramid, you should eat the food pyramid, you should eat your carbs every day. it just makes you fat and it makes you find it makes you slow and triggers insulin spike and this article is fact. and this this article is fact. the no starch us so the food no starch tricks us so as hunter gatherers it'd be very that we found food that had fat and and sugar all at once. and salt and sugar all at once. i mean, very rarely. i come across a tub of haagen—dazs as a gatherer, so. no, you know we can be. we can be tricked. it's almost like us giving us a drug or something. at least the spike in endorphins mean spike for sure. i mean, i've actually recently an app that just counts every single calorie that my girlfriend it's amazing really . girlfriend it's amazing really. it's really useful in it you're so bad and so many people complain that got like a underactive thyroid . it's like, underactive thyroid. it's like, no, you've got an overactive fridge door is what is going on there anyway. we stick the there anyway. we stick with the sunday telegraph should you sunday telegraph and should you feel guilt if you dodge redundancy. well, gb news, we believe for morale believe fires of good for morale . whoop, you've not made any big

purchases lately, jonathan . purchases lately, jonathan. right. so workers who avoid redundancy need survivor's guilt, support so our report suggests that companies not congratulate people on still a job to avoid adding to guilty feelings. so workers who avoid layoffs need survivor guilt, support . h.r. experts have support. h.r. experts have suggested that just sounds like trying to justify their jobs. oh yeah. we go fire wrong. please yeah. no, i don't get on with h.r. i've been from every job, but that's so russell h. our consulting firm based milton keynes. well, that's your first red flag as a practical support for remaining employees. help to reduce negative responses . often reduce negative responses. often this the form of regular this takes the form of regular discussions employees on a discussions with employees on a 1 1 basis. that sounds so 1 to 1 basis. that sounds so long slow and costly and. long and slow and costly and. the organisation of extra training enable survivors training to enable survivors to perform effectively . or maybe perform effectively. or maybe people stress everyone people just stress to everyone them getting fired. maybe them is getting fired. maybe that's don't feel guilt y that's good don't feel guilt y that's good don't feel guilt y that there's job security like you these tech firms you know all these tech firms just off of just laid off hundreds of thousands of people which i found quite funny, but also the

same time. it's just that that is a stress. i don't think you get survivor's guilt for that. you there's little you say that. but there's little mention remote mention down here of remote work. second page. work. i read the second page. well never remote workers fired their i feel so bad i don't. but remote workers who survive redundancy rounds are more likely to feel the guilt because they're working from their working from home. oh knows they feel guilty maybe worried that they're actually going to start working because the other people who carrying are not who are carrying them are not honest surely they wouldn't honest and surely they wouldn't need fire as people if need to fire as many people if they as many people they didn't as many people to come honest thing is, come in totally honest thing is, we should start with h.r. sakamoto and then you need like person each helping each other. it's a process , it is one chill it's a process, it is one chill guy. just one chill guy. yeah. none of none of none of none of none of it. none of these, know, equality and these, you know, equality and inclusion coordinators or training coordinators. the mandatory when i work in the pubuc mandatory when i work in the public sector, they you'd think i'd able like you know i'd be able to like you know could the sistine chapel could build the sistine chapel or like perform brains but their training had no no instead of

just no all the all the ways that i just no all the all the ways thati can just no all the all the ways that i can be called a racist. yeah, well i had ofcom training recently and i just play my game boy the whole way through. it was. really twitter for was. not really twitter for that. yeah. yeah. what the that. yeah. yeah. what would the americans don't celebrate americans we don't celebrate success don't we success do know we don't we don't much celebrate don't have much to celebrate with fair, the next with to be fair, the next negative, a story about saying it's editing the genes babies cressida you've altering your genes since i hear the previous story . yeah this is mad. i story. yeah this is mad. i i think it's mad scientist. story. yeah this is mad. i i think it's mad scientist . who think it's mad scientist. who edhed think it's mad scientist. who edited baby's genes that he acted too quickly so this this article makes it sound like this was a bit of a mad scientist yeah going in, but in i don't know to how about it because he was trying to prevent the babies being susceptible to hiv , made being susceptible to hiv, made them immune . were these babies them immune. were these babies leading a, well, risky lifestyle with the white coat? i mean, that's very good question, isn't it? and what's important is it says here that he had inadequate consent from the parents. that

was quite a yes or no issue isn't it. what does that mean he offered them a few quid i don't know served a three year know anyway served a three year prison but next month prison sentence but next month he's going to be giving a speech at oxford university, which that makes well , maybe makes me think, well, maybe there's more to this story than just mad scientist edited a just a mad scientist edited a baby's i mean, that'sjust, baby's g. i mean, that's just, you some some interesting you know, some some interesting and important things as as being completely oblivious the consent or proper procedures , which to or proper procedures, which to be fair. i mean, we've seen across a lots of medical across across a lots of medical across a lot of, you know , the consent a lot of, you know, the consent isn't always isn't available. the key thing balance astrazeneca . there's a certain astrazeneca. there's a certain of you know unless you let us this medical procedure on you and jason with this you can't do this i don't know whether the parents are allowed to keep jobs or not. yeah. so they feel guilty about it, though. that's the question. well apparently he's still in touch with the families and two the babies. families and two of the babies. he said living leading normal peace. don't know, laughing,

peace. i don't know, laughing, leading, undisturbed leading, peaceful, undisturbed lives, their privacy when lives, which their privacy when asked about third child i've got an extra leg, he replied. i'm not answering this question later adding the child is living a life and living with their parents. can we move? i don't know. i'm looking forward the know. i'm looking forward to the sort feet tall and well , sort of 45 feet tall and well, it's impossible . the sun express it's impossible. the sun express now and the tom jones classic is being cancelled. well they're trying to anyway, but fans are cancelling it. jonathan you delighted to hear. well, i didn't write that like the headuneis didn't write that like the headline is welsh rugby fans belt out delilah. despite concerns glorifying domestic violence , welsh rugby fans are violence, welsh rugby fans are still singing tom jones has hit delilah before the six nations match. they, despite the sports bosses trying to ban it over concerns its lyrics glorified domestic violence. so in lead up to the welsh ireland match today fans all around stadium were filled people belting out the song. filled people belting out the song . so the song is about a man

song. so the song is about a man who goes murders his after is after her lover leaves and it's really song but i think no one is glorifying this no one is saying, oh, this is a good thing to do. i think nobody that's what it needs to happen song. you go, go, delilah. we're probably going to pay royalties. no, but yeah nobody nobody knew the did you know it was it was a nice because i listen to the lyrics . oh i only know the lyrics. oh i only know the chorus . no i totally know. but chorus. no i totally know. but as far as i want to give the alternative view here . yeah. alternative view here. yeah. it's going to be a really difficult minute . oh what can i difficult minute. oh what can i say obviously? i mean, it's very serious. i would like to have thought that the grown ups going to see these games what to be trusted , obviously people can trusted, obviously people can get quite boisterous around sport. i think the real issue here is that people are concerned that don't hear these statistics that when the world cup i know this is rugby i know it's different different shape but more men get . rugby smaller

but more men get. rugby smaller shorts, bigger thighs. that's the oh yeah during these these events more suffer domestic don't they. and this is an acknowledgement of that. sure but basically i agree with you , but basically i agree with you, i don't think the tom jones i mean, i know you're just devil's advocate here, but what at layer for balance? we added song about killing one's husband to sort of make it even probably for make it even you probably for that yeah that's a tricky issue. well it means it's where do you stop isn't it. in their appeal. still male . i'm amazed that still male. i'm amazed that hasn't been a hit. has. well yeah if release it christmas banger. yeah if release it christmas banger . yeah, but it does seem banger. yeah, but it does seem ridiculous to assume that rugby fans as soon as they sing delilah , look at this thing, delilah, look at this thing, this tom jones song, and then look, wait a minute, i need to go home and commit domestic violence of this lyric. in this song, it's an absolute and know what you counsel next is what you counsel next this is how end up with people how we end up with people not being watch hamlet and being able to watch hamlet and i'm there's a lot more i'm sorry there's a lot more degenerate pop music the whole

point expression point of artistic expression sometimes to explore the body and you'll actually do it because that's the fun stuff is anyway the telegraph and i don't know why anyone want to know why anyone would want to join a student feminist society but court has ruled the bristol feminist can exclude feminist society can exclude trans women. lets me tell us more. well this is back to our sturgeon and in february 2021, bristol sue student union demanded raquel rosario sanchez. it's president stand down before banning her from leadership post for two years because she was tough. a trans exclusionary radical feminist knowing she she only wanted biologic women to be able to join this group and she's one so they were taken court by the students union but in response four members of the group took legal action and they've won, which is amazing . they've won, which is amazing. yeah, well, the student union was , was using their bylaw, was, was using their bylaw, which , you know, a woman is which, you know, a woman is anyone is basically anyone that

says that to women. but under the equality act of 2010 we should you know as as it's a countrywide a nationwide act override any local bylaws it says a woman is a is a female of any age which you know means that trans women aren't included in that definition of any age of any age, we typically hear people are into this saying an aduu people are into this saying an adult human female, we do . adult human female, we do. that's the thing that you usually see on a t—shirt but this is of any age a woman is can be of any age you can be a seven year old woman here that is related. i saw in podcast the other day that bristol university has a student group for king's thinking. university has a student group for king's thinking . yeah, it's for king's thinking. yeah, it's not enough that they join the why they isn't king supposed to be that you know do the whole paddung be that you know do the whole paddling because it's i don't know like your mum up to the newsletter and stuff supposed to be a bit of a secret. that's where the fun is. well, yeah.

amazing well, those are the times we in. anyway that's part three. don't coming up in the final section we have cheap for nhs workers , possibly the worst nhs workers, possibly the worst break up of all time . and a break up of all time. and a woman who lives in a roundabout seems see in a couple of minutes

welcome back to the final part of headliners. we jump straight back in with the sunday mirror and a new planet has been found in our cosmic neighbourhood . how in our cosmic neighbourhood. how long it gets gentrified . long until it gets gentrified. oh that coming for us. astronomers find a planet in the habitable zone. just 31 light years from earth. a planet called wolf 1069 nice b has been found 31 light years away from earth, which has the mass as our planet and is in the habitable . planet and is in the habitable. what habitable habitable zone do you touch temperature? i'm not an idiot, honestly. the planet which orbits a red star is

relatively close to 31 light years away from earth in that constellation and earth has similar mass. so we've discovered about 5000 exoplanets so far , basically mean planets so far, basically mean planets in other solar systems, not our own. and in the other guy, actually, we can tell them by dudes like variations in light and how it wobbles and we can work out the gravity and the size and where we are compared to the stars. but the exciting about this is it's not that far away on a cosmic scale and it's similar earth. so we ever similar to earth. so if we ever do become a space faring civilisation could possibly do become a space faring civilthat)n could possibly do become a space faring civilthat we could possibly do become a space faring civilthat we go could possibly do become a space faring civilthat we go to uld possibly do become a space faring civilthat we go to and oossibly do become a space faring civilthat we go to and ruin bly do become a space faring civilthat we go to and ruin so one that we go to and ruin so yeah so if we could travel at the speed of light would take us 31 years to get there. yes. you you want to. okay. i'd you want to. oh, okay. i'd written note saying. does written a note saying. does that mean get there in 31 mean we can get there in 31 years? you see the light, the years? if you see the light, the speed of light. so no wormholes and stuff be will be and stuff will be will be boring. hole through space and boring. a hole through space and just out of just brilliant planning out of that. you want find that. and if you do want to find more about kind of issue, more about this kind of issue, please watch my podcast called while i'm longer talking to while i'm no longer talking to white about space. oh white people about space. oh
