not been up to scratch. i'm going to have to take a very long, hard look how they've conducted all of this, not only the investigation, but much the communication. and i hope that the wider british police take some lessons from all of this because quite frankly , if you because quite frankly, if you get the messaging wrong , people get the messaging wrong, people don't believe you. they're not going to trust you. investigations and that, i think, is part of the reason why so many people turned up. so mark was a lot a former conservative jailed for sexually assaulting teenager has been freed from prison after serving half his term . imran ahmed khan half his term. imran ahmed khan jailed for 18 months last may for groping a 15 year old boy after a party in 2008. the 49 year old lost a court of appeal challenge against his conviction and sentence in december december . the and sentence in december december. the foreign and northern ireland secretaries will hold fresh with the eu this

shortly. i spoke to. patrick okay people. well big, big, big noises about resignation letters at the ready. and i will tell you why in the cabinet, because former cabinet minister rees—mogg has accused rishi of imitating the failed brexit strategy of his predecessor twice theresa may. that reports the prime minister is now facing potential cabinet resignations over the northern ireland protocol. so the government's current trying to hammer out a deal with leaders to get powersharing stormont up and running again. but it means the passage of the northern ireland protocol bill which if passed, would the uk to unilaterally obey london pass the eu withdrawal agreement? and it's been paused in parliament, so that much of that is staying really prominent tory brexiteers because boris has urged the pm to not abandon legislation . to not abandon legislation. look, i am not going to get bogged down, said ladies and gentlemen, in the finer points,

the northern ireland protocol. why? is so . and we why? because is so, so. and we all hate it. it could bring to a glass eye. but what i am concerned about is potential cabinet resignation and whether or not rishi sunak is essentially going to bethe pro—brexit elements of his party. would that be political suicide? i'm joined now by our political reporter olivia utley and olivia rumours that some people might go . well, the people might go. well, the rumours all were hearing this morning that there's a chance of suella braverman the home secretary resigning . it doesn't secretary resigning. it doesn't sound that is imminent at sound like that is imminent at all, but isn't happy with what she's heard of the deal. and just to reiterate that no one really knows what the deal because rishi sunak has kept it under wraps. he's had these meetings with the northern irish leaders but actually leaders but hasn't actually shown that the text of the deal. so trying to engage with so he's trying to engage with them his own them and with his own conservative ministers and backbench sort of the backbench mp just in sort of the vaguest, broadest without vaguest, broadest terms without getting detail . there getting into the detail. there were that. chris were rumours that. chris heaton—harris the northern irish, the northern ireland secretary of state think he was.

it doesn't look he is it it doesn't look like he is it says he is backing the government's deal which makes. he's who's negotiated it he's the one who's negotiated it and name which keep and the other name which we keep is baker. he isn't is steve baker. he isn't secretary of state level level minister. he's a minister of for northern ireland. but a very influential figure in the conservative party. he was chairman of the that group of back brexiteers who are extremely influential . in 16 to extremely influential. in 16 to 2017 and he holds a lot of sway among brexiteers in the party. if rishi sunak were to lose him, that would be a very, very big on the org saying about it now because they are really the kind of brexit bigwigs in this party. they are the core. it could be argued essentially how right wing eurosceptic elements, some would say that's the fabric in the day to an of the conservative party. where are they on this. well, they're worried indeed about it. and they have rodin completely behind dup, if anything. they're taking a harder stance than the

dup. what worried about are these not get into too much detail because i know it is bonng. detail because i know it is boring . it's important to know boring. it's important to know what the row is actually about. yes. so there are there are two things that they worried about with the what they know of with the with what they know of the deal don't the new deal and they don't exactly it is. but one exactly know what it is. but one is the continued jurisdiction of the european courts of over events that taking place in events that are taking place in northern ireland. so eu disputes happening in northern ireland would to ecj would be subject to ecj jurisdiction. so essentially you would foreign would have foreign courts overseeing law being made in a part of uk. and the other issue is this issue of customs checks on. goods going. goods made in northern ireland coming in to great britain would be subject to customs checks , which to customs checks, which essentially means that northern would still be in all but name part of the single market, which again would very difficult if i mean difficult in principle generally, but perhaps actually difficult if uk , which difficult if uk, which brexiteers hope it will, starts diverge from eu law, then it would be very difficult for many

factories in northern ireland. business people in northern to trade with people in their own country. but this really the fascinating bit because rishi sunakis fascinating bit because rishi sunak is keeping his cards incredibly close to his chest. he's doing a lot with what theresa did, a little bit about what he first what david cameron when he first went eu and tries to get went to the eu and tries to get some of renegotiated deal some form of renegotiated deal with them. but if he comes back and he goes right, i want to sign off on this. and he goes right, i want to sign off on this . it means that sign off on this. it means that northern ireland still subject to the ecj and any goods coming out northern ireland into great britain will be subject customs checks, i.e. northern ireland essentially in many ways what the european union we lose some of our sovereign territory . not of our sovereign territory. not really what president roosevelt. they voted for brexit. if that does happen realistically , the does happen realistically, the likes of suella braverman, i'm afraid have go, don't they? well it'll be very interesting. i mean, it's thought rishi sunak. he sort of wouldn't let it get that far. and his own mpc now him that he would have to get the onside before he went ahead with said he's

with it. that said he's had a meeting him his backbench meeting him with his backbench this afternoon and it's being reported that he was very snap in this meeting and irritable and suggesting that he is now the right wing of his party now pushing him too hard and risking electoral oblivion if they push him too hard. so it does a bit as though he's beginning to call their bluff and say, well, you shot me down all you like, but we will lose the election if you carry on doing this. so it has reached a of an impasse. now reached a bit of an impasse. now it's fascinating, really, and i'm these i'm going be having these discussions course of discussions about the course of the for that. olivia the show. thank for that. olivia olivia our political. olivia utley that our political. i'm have a series of i'm going to have a series of guests mps past present guests mps past and present ministers actually ministers and present actually potentially discuss this potentially to discuss this because me it's more about because for me it's more about the personality elements of this. okay. will there be cabinet resignations? if there are, who will go some big names potentially tapped. but we'll have to and see. but also have to wait and see. but also just practically going forward . just practically going forward. rishi the right rishi sunak ignore the right wing elements of, his party and does he get propped up by labour

and what would that look like? what that mean for you? do what would that mean for you? do you feel as though rishi sunak would be dead in the water if he ignores wing eurosceptic ignores right wing eurosceptic elements of? his party, especially considering that he's at the moment not doing too much about immigration illegal and legal. so gbviews@gbnews.uk . legal. so gbviews@gbnews.uk. okay, keep your views coming in. we'll bring updates on that as expected to developments . but expected to be developments. but yes, rg said that right wing yes, the rg said that right wing of tory party angry at of the tory party very angry at rishi sunak and well, will they bnng rishi sunak and well, will they bring him down. we'll have to wait but questions need wait and see, but questions need to on now to be answered moving on now about case of bulley, about the case of nicola bulley, because media watchdog ofcom because the media watchdog ofcom has expressed extreme concern about the actions of some media outlets after nicholas explicitly certain broadcasters for contacting them when the news of a body being discovered first broke and of course that was allegedly anyway tv and itv and fingers have already been pointed at lancashire police as . they begin to undertake their

own internal into their handling the case after a huge public backlash was sparked over the decision to release. sensitive details. well, look i've got a lot of questions on this . this lot of questions on this. this is clearly is anyone who watches show will know a case that i have personally covered massively on this particular channel on this particular show. and it's always a difficult one to get right and massive public interest in it. huge public interest in it. huge public interest and was huge public interest and was huge public interest in the search for missing nicola bulley and because that wasn't necessarily a coherent message coming from the police that can fuel speculation but undoubtedly the allegations from the family are that some media outlets went far too far. joining me now for the policing perspective former senior investigating officer the met peter cook and peter thank you very, very much . good you very, very much. good afternoon. the police feel they've got the press . i'm they've got the press. i'm parched by some of the things that they said, but not not

deliberately is it's really difficult know and as investigating officer it's really difficult to know how what you saying is going to be taken up the media so sometimes you have a press release that you have a press release that you think is going to really take off and it hardly takes off until other times you something that pays to you . oh, i we might that pays to you. oh, i we might look. peter oh we might have lost peter so i will try get him back, essentially. i know lot of you at home and our viewers and our listeners and just the pubucin our listeners and just the public in general had very, very mixed feelings. the nicola bulley press coverage and this is kind of where i'm at on it, really, which is this is a deeply troubling case. and there were massive appeals for any information, the case, of course, and it really gripped the nation, think, initially the nation, i think, initially because mr. as it was. because of how mr. as it was. yes, think the police's yes, i think that the police's messaging the start was messaging at the start was bizarre and that did fuel people

to lead people down initiating the issue, not. and then the river issue, not. and then that leads to a massive, massive speculation at the time speculation but at the same time , there is that huge public interest element of it. you interest element of it. and you only have look at when people only have to look at when people talk this particular case racing's spike when you racing's only spike up. when you see people put clips out on twitter from talking about this case, they get massively viewed online. and so it does fuel it in that sense, doesn't it? so there is undoubtedly the public interest element to it, which clearly allows the press, a media to continue talk about something. but there is the moral of it isn't that and did the press in some cases too far and certainly that line that came out yesterday from the family i was reporting on that live here. in fact that press conference took place live on this show yesterday that for me , i thought was a signal of the press going too far of some outlets. they named scott and he's in itv. so they them and they said that they'd made contact with the family after the body found despite the

family asking for privacy. so where's the line for you in all of this was that too far were you actually annoyed with the media coverage . hey, if you media coverage. hey, if you think i got it wrong , let me think i got it wrong, let me know. gb views a gb news don't you think the reality it was a massive case and a case of quite significant mystery really and maybe not everyone always got it right. your viewers gb views the gbnews.uk fault. let's see what some of actually think of the media's treatment now, because media's treatment now, because me on gb news view is harris, who is in bristol and we've got sue as well in felixstowe. thank you very much, both of you. great to have you on the show leigh the discussion today around nicola bulley is around nicola bulley case is basically behaved basically have the press behaved like the press? what is your view ? yeah, i agree with what view? yeah, i agree with what you just said actually. yes i think they have gone way too far . the coverage of this case has been appalling the police do some serious questions to answer . that was handled at the start.

like you pointed out, some of the information they put out. seems very personal and completely . that led to completely. that led to speculate . but nicola bulley speculate. but nicola bulley family were absolutely right . family were absolutely right. specifically call out sky news anditv specifically call out sky news and itv and news being particularly bad. they should hang their heads in shame. so called on the spot record reports anglers crass rubbernecking the worst kind . it rubbernecking the worst kind. it was embarrassing and uncomfortable to watch. it was a shameless scramble for advertising revenue and social media claims. and you're right gutter journalism. media claims. and you're right gutterjournalism. i personally found it quite awful watching kay bailey retracing her steps and sensationalising this sad story . i know she's not here to story. i know she's not here to defend herself. it's just my personal. my personal view. i watched it for about 5 minutes and i had to turn it off. i genuinely felt like i was the family's privacy just by it. well, that was strong views and they're all certainly very welcome on show. again, just emphasise obviously sky tv's

etcetera may well have different views. that's fair enough leave out to them to pick through the mess there. sue cox is in felixstowe, so thank you very much. i'll ask you the same because there is i was a huge interest in the nicola bulley disappearance. did press go too far, in your view , sue? i do far, in your view, sue? i do think the press went too far. but i have to say i found this situation quite unusual in that 400 people more or less go missing every day. and a lot of those children and the press doesn't give them any attention . i think in this case, for the first couple of days, the media was because she was a relatively young mum with two very young children and was a very unlikely candidate to go missing. and i think the two pieces of evidence sorry, the abandoned phone and dog intrigued the press, and it also intrigued the public. and i

think, you know, for the first couple of days, it was very important for a person to focus on this, to get information from people that might have seen something or, dash cams or suchlike . but i think once the suchlike. but i think once the media circus began, it turn into a media circus. i think everybody wanted to try their hat into the ring because they wanted to scope. i don't really think it out of consideration for the family because if it hadnt for the family because if it hadn't been they have behaved like that . you know, i think it like that. you know, i think it has drawn some of the most bizarre of humanity, including germany journalists and. you know, aside from the loss of this poor woman, there were two people that should have been at any cost and is a grandmother. i just feel so sorry , those two just feel so sorry, those two girls, because what, they would not have been able to be protected from this. it would be possible for them not to know what was on. and i think , you what was on. and i think, you know, the press should watch certain areas of the press and certain areas of the press and

certain coverage or i should hang their heads in shame . well, hang their heads in shame. well, look, both of you here are stay where you are for if that's all right. our producers are going to keep you on the line. i'm going to bring peter kirkham back in. he was, of course, a former cop at the met. it's peter. thank you. sorry we lost you briefly. look, forgive you briefly. now, look, forgive me, i'm certainly don't want me, i. i'm certainly don't want anyone to think that i am shilling for kay burley and covered for that covered sky news or itv for that matter. i just want ask matter. but i just want to ask you views on this thing. is you your views on this thing. is it useful the police it quite useful for the police in the midst of many are in the midst of what many are saying? was not the best investigation and made and will be done into the investigation is it quite useful for them to now? hide behind the press. make the press enemy number. oh, you were sick. you were calling family afterwards. actually police got a lot wrong as well. then they the police got some things wrong and that areas of judgement call of professional judgement call of professional judgement call of professional judgement call rather than absolute black and white, you

know, you got it wrong. you didn't do and you should have doneit didn't do and you should have done it or something like. but the media and they've got the two, two outlets that's sort of in firing line of ofcom . but i in firing line of ofcom. but i think most the problem actually came from social media and we know that that's a wild west . it know that that's a wild west. it was the first time i've ever seen anything like this where people have been flocking to the scene , doing their own detective scene, doing their own detective , detective work , coming up with , detective work, coming up with various theories ranging from the very sensible through to the utterly and so i think is maybe first example of what we're to come to expect in the and the police to learn from it. i don't think that hiding behind the media, both the police and the media, both the police and the media questions to answer , i media questions to answer, i would say that there mistakes have been made, that judgements

calls that have been made. but some of the media stuff as well, certainly from the mainstream media outlet. certainly from the mainstream media outlet . well, what kind of media outlet. well, what kind of can i ask you this? and, you know of a lot to think i'm a relatively straightforward so i can take it on the chin if you give me an honest answer back , give me an honest answer back, you know, do you think that people like me shouldn't have been hammering the police as much as when it got to, i think, day 20 odd. right. and you know, she missing first she was missing for three weeks. i think it was the three week mark where i made a bit of a decision where i made a bit of a decision where i thought actually, i really think the police have made mistakes here. and that was singularly based on the fact that we haven't found nicola. do you think she was too harsh on the police ? i don't think it's the police? i don't think it's valid to look at something and say this has been going on for x amount of days or weeks and we haven't got a result yet. therefore the police have messed

something up and you can have enquiries where there simply is no evidence be found. you can have enquiries where the evidence is that to be found is going to some considerable time to find for a variety of reasons and you can have enquiries where the evidence is jumping up, screaming at the first officers on the scene. so it's solved really before anybody doing anything at all. and so there's anything at all. and so there's a whole range of enquiries and unless you're an investigator later you aren't really in a position to estimate what's going on. and even i as an investigator out here in the pubuc investigator out here in the public sector i've got no access to , all the information the to, all the information the police have, i'm trying to second guess to a certain read between the lines from they're saying and what they're doing and try and understand what that actually means is to be happening in there instead of right or not. peter, thank you very much. great to get you back on. peter kirkham, the former mayor officer. i'm just going to bnngin

mayor officer. i'm just going to bring in very quickly back some of our that have been of our viewers that have been listening lee harris listening to that is lee harris in bristol. sue cox in felixstowe lee on what what what peter you know, do you peter said that you know, do you think media nicola think the media owe nicola bulley unfair the bulley family an unfair the police an apology ? yeah i'm not police an apology? yeah i'm not sure about the police just yet, but yes, i'm all for freedom of the press. but they were absolutely right to hold them accountable. they should be there should be inquiry. you there should be an inquiry. you know, was glad i've know, i was glad see, i've called for extremely called in for extremely concerned yeah hopefully they concerned so yeah hopefully they i rights called i think their rights called them out tried inquiry out and tried to feed inquiry lee thank you. sue just a final quick one for me, if that's all right, in order to make sure that something this doesn't that something like this doesn't happen do do happen again, how do they do that do do? i mean, that what do they do? i mean, you can't really put press restrictions on reporting missing persons case, can you? it's tough so . well, think. it's a tough so. well, i think. it's a tough so. well, i think. ihope it's a tough so. well, i think. i hope the media will from this because the distress and anguish that they have actually caused families. i'm sorry i hang their headsin families. i'm sorry i hang their heads in shame, but have no consideration for the family at

all, even though they were masquerading under that premise that, you know, they were about the family. they were concerned. but they you think ? i think but they you think? i think that. yeah i get what you say. you think it crossed the line so you don't you. i think from it being about reporting the facts into a actually rather shamelessly being let's see how many views and clicks we can but by maybe people think i did the same thing i hope don't but same thing i hope you don't but maybe gbviews@gbnews.uk maybe do gbviews@gbnews.uk of you. very much. you. thank you very much. tough stuff ali harris in stuff that is you, ali harris in bristol and sue cox in felixstowe. right we're going to twist to this now because we've got loads, more got loads, loads, loads more your me patrick christys your way. we me patrick christys on now was hotly tipped to on now she was hotly tipped to replace nicola sturgeon but kate forbes killed off her chances apparently of becoming snp leader by saying that she opposes gay marriage is . this opposes gay marriage is. this the case of someone with christine values and elements christian values simply not being able to stand for high office in this christian country

intensive negotiations continue in a bid to resolve the outstanding issues. rishi sunak says three main areas are being addressed . safeguarding northern addressed. safeguarding northern ireland's place within the union. protecting belfast agreement and ensuring the free flow of trade . tv, online and flow of trade. tv, online and dab+ radio is gb news now is back to . patrick okay people is back to. patrick okay people is hotting up north of border now just a day ago kate forbes as the favourite to become the new leader the snp but it only took forbes just a few hours for it to make a comment that could frankly kill off bizarre in my opinion her hopes replacing opinion her hopes of replacing nicola sturgeon, even more nicola sturgeon, which even more bizarrely opens up race now bizarrely opens up the race now for humza yousaf, who has got a chequered past, to the chequered past, to say the least. we'll about that least. we'll talk about that shortly. finance shortly. the scottish finance secretary. he's a devout christian. it's okay . one about christian. it's okay. one about now that she'd have now revealed that she'd have voted against gay marriage because of religious beliefs because of her religious beliefs . so that's her religious

beliefs . that's her moral beliefs. that's her moral compass, as it were does her decision . right. so that's what decision. right. so that's what she said. now it's fair to say that of these comments hasn't down well with a number of senior snp figures saying they would longer support. so would know longer support. so because she has a particular denomination of christianity these they are out in a these views they are out in a christian but that we get the scottish health secretary. however, humza yousaf is now the now to win the leadership race rather would like to go out. and joining me i have the perfect man to do it is journalist at the spectator. it's simmons. michael go again. so michael here we go again. so kate appears to be out of kate forbes appears to be out of the running because she was essentially honest about her religious . essentially honest about her religious. is essentially honest about her religious . is that right? well, religious. is that right? well, it does look like that has taken her from bookies and the pollsters favour and to know sort of further on lost in the race and it does seem to be specifically comment she made that she would have voted equal marriage this kind of done her. everyone who's kind of followed

scottish politics knew that she these divided religious views but it's first time that she's articulate i she would have actually voted them and i think that's kind of interesting that she's done that politically because scotland is overwhelming supportive of equal marriage and certainly over the last eight years of snp rule move themselves from a socially conservative to a progressive party. so and people thought kate forbes will have this view , she'll dodge the question or keep quiet for the sake of her leadership. and so fact that she's come out and said it is kind of fascinating. well, it is fascinating. but i would argue that when you look at who this is presenting, she left it on a plate for until other people might be come in. it's humza yousaf and i've just got two headunes yousaf and i've just got two headlines me now. headlines in front of me now. i'm to read them back to i'm going to read them back to back minister, this is back transport minister, this is going minister going to transport minister yousaf apologises for without insurance . so there's that and insurance. so there's that and then we've got a headline in the

guardian humza yousaf has formally dropped discrimination case against nursery , and this case against nursery, and this was an incident where they felt as though their daughter was twice refused a place at a particular nursery because had, quote, sounding name quote, a muslim sounding name while people had white while other people had white names and they were offered places interesting they places as interesting that they have dropped that that have now dropped that and that has called baseless legal has been called a baseless legal action the nursery which action by the nursery which ironically name little scholars actually in question here just forgive me about this now someone with a maybe slightly maybe a disagreeable moral compass i.e. kate forbes into her religious views about same sex marriage , etc, but somebody sex marriage, etc, but somebody who , as if the headlines is be who, as if the headlines is be believe driven without insurance, will transport minister. i made a quote based this legal action relating to that non racism . that's okay. is that non racism. that's okay. is it so yousaf is frontrunner . it so yousaf is frontrunner. well certainly walking around westminster today and the scottish labour believe their

luck because kate was the person that they feared might lead scotland to independence might do a competent job of running the government. humza yousaf as you point those are two examples. but you know any ministerial role he's had he's made a real mess of and so people just cannot believe this but i think from the snp's point of view a lot of their electoral strategy now is tied to this idea . progressive politics. it idea. progressive politics. it would be a huge u—turn if we if they were going to say we actually now accept kate forbes views and we don't go along with this of progressive, progressive politics. so for them , they politics. so for them, they would have someone who would rather have someone who see as incompetent humza yousaf , but at least speaks the party on progressive issues and is where we are, isn't it now? so if the snp are given binary choice between someone who might be competent but fundamentalist religious views , which i do religious views, which i do appreciate, by the way , maybe appreciate, by the way, maybe not in line with modern society and okay. i mean , there's a lot

and okay. i mean, there's a lot and okay. i mean, there's a lot a far cry from maybe having those views and actually going out and, you know, forcibly stopping gay people from getting married or this stuff is her views right ? married or this stuff is her views right? humza married or this stuff is her views right ? humza yousaf you views right? humza yousaf you mentioned that he's had several key roles and maybe hasn't always had the best run of it. could you shine bit more light on that for us, please? well, you know, as you mentioned when he was transport secretary he was stopped by police for driving without insurance. you know, i think that speaks for itself. he then was in the role where he had to introduce the controversial hate crime legislation that potentially legislation that was potentially going criminalise dinner table conversation that's been so difficult for the police to out how to implement that. it's not enforced. on his most recent ministerial post that has been and as health secretary just before christmas had the leaders of the scottish nhs saying that it was on the brink of collapse. so he, you know, he he has just not done a good job as health secretary and his you know i think his record for itself. just worth drilling down a little this free speech

little bit on this free speech stuff yeah focusing more stuff and yeah am focusing more on yousaf mainly because on humza yousaf mainly because supposedly the number one candidate so not. candidate at the minute so not. as currently stands if there as it currently stands if there was on today was a vote on it today supposedly humza yousef is leading of border so we leading of the border so we might well focus a bit on might as well focus a bit on this free speech element of so if you and i are chatting around the dinner table in yousaf the dinner table in humza yousaf in what happens can in scotland, what happens can get is the police get what report is the police for saying something a bit fruity this specific part of fruity so this specific part of the bill the opposition and i think managed to sort of temper block but basically the idea was that if you said something that could be seen as inciting hatred or causing hatred to people that that was going to be a crime even if it was in your own home now, i say that bit didn't make it the but that was as sort it into the but that was as sort of intended by the of originally intended by the scottish know is that scottish government know is that essentially . well something uses essentially. well something uses to lose unless somebody else comes in a way expecting any lights entries . i don't think so lights entries. i don't think so . nominations are open until

friday. in theory, someone could say, you know, everyone here is rubbish. kate's blowing up her chances, stick my hat in the ring. but it does look, it's become hundreds to lose and b on friday he'll be leading the race i'm potentially a bit like you said potentially absolute gift scottish tories and scottish labour because there is rather a lot to go out . labour because there is rather a lot to go out. i'm just going to emphasise again a particular hardline snp politician . his hardline snp politician. his wife claim their daughter was denied place because of her muslim sounding name . they muslim sounding name. they kicked off big time about that. they then withdrew that particular which particular complaint which i just out absolutely . just find out absolutely. bizarre. but michael, thank you very, very much is data journalist the spectator, journalist at the spectator, michael look, michael symonds. right. look, it's busy day here at gb news, it's a busy day here at gb news, as you can probably us should. prince harry have to pay for his own protection in the uk ? own armed protection in the uk? you'd be surprised how many people think he should then. you might also be surprised at how much legal fight is already costing. it's all of legal fees. meghan markle reportedly is

considered offering suing south park. yes, that's. you just couldn't make this up. are back in just a couple of minutes now we'll tell you exactly how many people i think prince harry should have to put his hand in pocket and pay for his own police protection and then attack .

okay. two more big ones to take us to reach the top of the hour. we're going to be discussing whether not harry should pay for his own police protection. how many of you shockingly actually think, shouldn't. but think, that he shouldn't. but after doom and gloom, he's after the doom and gloom, he's a little bit of good economic news. because news. that's right? because survey evidence released this, morning suggest the morning suggestions suggest the uk has shown a surprise uk economy has shown a surprise return to growth and now looks set to avoid a widely predicted recession. who could have predicted that? oh, to all you

can always in business and it's a liam halligan with on the money . take it away, liam . broad money. take it away, liam. broad causes of very quick to cover the doom and gloom. patrick so let's cover something quite interesting . these aren't gdp interesting. these aren't gdp numbers . these aren't official numbers. these aren't official growth numbers . but there's a growth numbers. but there's a very, very well—regarded , highly very, very well—regarded, highly authoritative, serious numbers called the purchasing managers index, which surveys of commercial leaders , owners. and commercial leaders, owners. and they're like , they pre—empt gdp they're like, they pre—empt gdp and the purchasing manager index number january and february that numberjanuary and february that we could actually avoid recession. let's have a quick look at some of the numbers here. so back in december 2022, the purchasing manager index was down at 49. in january , it was down at 49. in january, it was at 48.5, which is even lower. and in february, despite lot of people saying it would be 47, it was actually 53. and in mind, patrick, with these pmi numbers

, if the reading is 50 all or more than 50, that is what indicate it's economic growth . indicate it's economic growth. okay, so what's this? what is this is suggesting that in february, according surveys of business leaders , they fill in business leaders, they fill in these surveys and they suggest what they think is happening . what they think is happening. they're going to invest, whether they're going to grow. their orders have gone up , whether orders have gone up, whether they're pubs, they're running pubs, restaurants , factories or restaurants, factories or whatever doing . and it's whatever they're doing. and it's if pmi says the gdp figures if the pmi says the gdp figures are going to better, they nearly always get better. so for months and months , we've had people and months, we've had people saying, of course , we're going saying, of course, we're going to go into recession in the uk, slowest growing economy, etc, etc. it looks like we've dodged this bullet. it like we aren't going go into recession now going to go into recession now at least strength of at least on the strength of these numbers, which is good these pmi numbers, which is good news people in news this will give people in boardrooms across , country, boardrooms across, the country, whether is a big, whether the boardroom is a big, tall office building or their kitchen table, it will give strength of mind to invest and to carry growing. you know, it's

great this because i think if you listen to a lot of broadcasters and media outlets, if you stick your head out the you would expect to see britain in middle of some kind of in the middle of some kind of nuclear and nuclear armageddon and everything's absolutely and it's all have anchor and all going to have an anchor and the clearly not. but the balance is clearly not. but what will this mean going forward jeremy well, forward for jeremy hunt? well, we've got budget coming up we've got the budget coming up on march the 15th. i say to you pretty much every day when we have these chats in the studio, each and there's so much going on behind the scenes, we've got that big tax row that i've talking about over the last couple of days. a lot of conservative backbenchers don't want tax going from want corporation tax going from 19 to 25, which is currently the law. it's going to go up in april. you've now got some national newspapers behind that campaign well, including my campaign as well, including my own paper, the telegraph , the own paper, the telegraph, the daily mail. that's a mighty formidable combination. you've got george osborne, the former chancellor. no of rishi sunak , chancellor. no of rishi sunak, quite frankly, a remainer and a brexiteer , saying that brexiteer, saying that corporation tax shouldn't go up either . but what we've also had

either. but what we've also had today apart from these frankly, really quite interesting and encouraging pmi numbers, we've had numbers , patrick, and again, had numbers, patrick, and again, i think woefully underreport it from the treasury , from the from the treasury, from the office for national statistics, showing that in april sorry, in january the uk government was actually in surplus. quite a healthy so they got a lot more revenue in than they took in than they actually spent and surplus is about £54 billion. the treasury thinking this there would be no surplus in january and if you go april last year to january so that's most of the tax year april to april the obe the office budget responsibility has now under that the health of the uk is public finances by about 30 billion wow pounds the estimates back in november a £30 billion off so that is an awful lot of fiscal headroom. so

you're going to get trade unionists looking at these numbers, saying oh, so you can afford pay more to afford to pay us more money to try and these strikes and you also tory backbenchers saying oh so you can't afford to cut taxes this is good news the treasury but it's the kind of good news that jeremy hunt is not going to want to hear. he got lay it down, gisela was obviously a go matches they've got a good our economics and business editor rise okay so good news but rise okay so some good news but us out now a recent yougov poll has suggested that the majority of brits think harry should receive police protection but is the catch harry only if he pays for it himself. so the poll also showed that more than a quarter of people thought the second son of people thought the second son of the king, the spare or where as his book is called, shouldn't get any police protection. it's all it comes. as the duke of sussex launched battle sussex launched legal battle with office the with the home office over, the decision his decision to reduce his protection whilst in the uk a couple arrests . well supposedly couple arrests. well supposedly that has cost us you, the that has cost us you, me, the taxpayer around that has cost us you, me, the taxpayer aroun d £300,000 already

taxpayer around £300,000 already just this legal wrangling. sorry, clearly not doing too much to care the british taxpayer there but the decision was made back in february 2020, shortly after the duke that he was stepping back from royal dufies was stepping back from royal duties on the legal case. like i've said, it has already cost us a whopping 300 grand. joining me right now is royal broadcaster helena charge. helena thank you very much. great stuff. well, apparently, princess anne doesn't even get full time protection and she was nearly kidnapped back in 1974. and her former was actually shot. so what makes harry think he's so special ? hey, shot. so what makes harry think he's so special? hey, jake. hi you know, i think it's i actually think it's the amount of people as well that feel that he should get police protection is quite high surprisingly , you is quite high surprisingly, you know, the home office act, prince andrew's scotland yard protection way back and quite obviously. and i find it bizarre that prince harry feels that he

should have 24 seven protection when in the uk at him and his family i did get it i mean launching you know he's back and talking about how many times soldiers killed i mean he's done this , though, hasn't he? and this, though, hasn't he? and this, though, hasn't he? and this is the thing people are going to be asking him maybe. yeah, he's he's in this to himself in a sense, though. and i obviously wish that a will on harry whatsoever. i certainly don't wish him any harm. but the reality is, if you're going to kill on the amount actual kill on the amount of actual terrorists that you've killed, you probably shouldn't be surprised threat surprised if the terror threat to you your even to you and your family, even your and if you your kids rise, is and if you aren't going to essentially if you are going essentially mug you are going to essentially mug britain off on the way out and a lot brits, the majority of lot of brits, the majority of brits, think again you're brits, i think again you're going to get pushback here . oh, going to get pushback here. oh, it's all right. i don't want it. we've lost that. we've lost a lot of that, obviously. but we can have this chat amongst

ourselves. i suggest varanasi, because this is a big one. so i'm going read you some of i'm going to read you some of the facts figures on this. the facts and figures on this. so harry should so prince harry should have police this this police protection. this is this is brits, according to is what most brits, according to a but they pay for a yougov poll, but they pay for it himself. so more half the it himself. so more half of the pubuc it himself. so more half of the public think that second son public think that the second son of he should have of the king, he should have police protection. but 37% of people should pay for police protection. but 37% of pehimself. should pay for police protection. but 37% of pehimself. i should pay for police protection. but 37% of pehimself. i franklyhould pay for police protection. but 37% of pehimself. i frankly think pay for police protection. but 37% of pehimself. i frankly think that for it himself. i frankly think that is reasonable. pay for it is reasonable. they pay for it himself. he not want to himself. does he not want to have his cake and eat it here? at this point? wants to have at this point? he wants to have freedom the royal family and freedom for the royal family and yet continues battle on about yet continues a battle on about them. wants freedom britain, them. he wants freedom britain, but time he but then at the same time he wants be mean about wants to be quite mean about throughout course of throughout the course of everything saying everything that he's saying he wants racism, his wife wants to cry racism, his wife cw wants to cry racism, his wife cry racism, then not name cry racism, but then not name the quotes in quotes royal racist and now to top it all, off he goes. well, if you don't give me armed police protection , then i'm not coming. all right, know, right, harry. well, you know, the don't go to it. the airport is don't go to it. if you don't particularly want to come. that would be view. to come. that would be my view. but course want to know but of course i want to know yours. gb views gb news dot, you take of you suggesting that take lots of you suggesting that harry, he police

harry, if he wants police protection, netflix protection, should get netflix to for it, maybe into to pay for it, maybe dip into his pay for it. his trust fund to pay for it. maybe could get meghan markle maybe he could get meghan markle to it. she's worth a few to pay for it. she's worth a few quid as well. and talking of meghan markle did you know we're going covering this the going to be covering this in the next the markle is next hour. the meghan markle is reportedly action against reportedly legal action against south creators of south park. the creators of south park. the creators of south of that remains south all of that remains unconfirmed, but it's interesting never interesting discussion never that last because actually if it can't even take a little joke about themselves resonates with can't even take a little joke ailott themselves resonates with can't even take a little joke ailot of1emselves resonates with can't even take a little joke allot of people es resonates with can't even take a little joke allot of people ,s resonates with can't even take a little joke allot of people , mainlyites with can't even take a little joke allot of people , mainly because a lot of people, mainly because the joke was true. i think the joke was quite true. i think that what's the point that actually what's the point of them keep your emails coming in and of you have been in and lots of you have been getting in touch with what's going our main topic of the day which is rishi being warned which is rishi soon being warned by members his cabinet they by members his cabinet that they might handling might resign over his handling of northern ireland protocol of the northern ireland protocol deal of the northern ireland protocol deal. that was deal. now i know that there was northern ireland protocol northern ireland and protocol bnng northern ireland and protocol bring a glass eye. bring a tear to a glass eye. they want to go into they just if you want to go into a coma delve into the nitty a coma just delve into the nitty gritty the northern ireland protocol and i will be that protocol and i will not be that today. ladies and gents, but what will doing is talking what i will be doing is talking about potential cabinet about the potential cabinet resignations. on resignations. we all possibly on cabinet resignation and what

there are rumours that suella braverman secretary, braverman the home secretary, she's before . she knows she's resigned before. she knows where paper is . she where the pen and paper is. she might if she might potentially go if she feels as though is being feels as though brexit is being betrayed by virtue of northern ireland, maybe being syphoned off. so the european union. do you think that sunak is toast, if he ignores the right wing of the party, barry says, is to do with, say, knocking no in the right within the conservative party. it's to do with sunak ignonng party. it's to do with sunak ignoring the brexit referendum result. but i believe ignoring the referendum has the referendum result has happened yet. jeff says happened already yet. jeff says time for one more thing. if sunak cannot the dup's to agree a with members of his own cabinet still goes ahead. democracy be dead in the water in a very tricky position at rishi sunak because if he has got the argy your pen research group, you would argue i suppose proper brexiteers right wing of the tory party. many people think that's the tory base , think that's the tory base, that's maybe the fabric in the dna of traditional conservative party if he can't keep them and he can't get them onside and he

can't get the dup onside, what going to have to try to do is rely on and keir starmer to prop him up and get these votes through and i suspect a couple of things will happen here. rosie nations potentially from cabinet ministers also i think it will open the floodgates of dissent in the conservative party which are valuable , be party which are valuable, be bursting at the seams now. but they now he's just about staved off for a while, but know what else i think will happen? i think you see a lot of people, especially in red wall, decide to for another. i think to vote for another. and i think that will be labour i'm that policy will be labour i'm told that policy, course, told that policy, of course, will conservative party. told that policy, of course, vicertainly conservative party. told that policy, of course, vicertainly don't ervative party. told that policy, of course, vicertainly don't think le party. told that policy, of course, vicertainly don't think it party. told that policy, of course, vicertainly don't think it willy. i certainly don't think it will be although could be the lib dems, although could be the lib dems, although could be i wonder whether or be wrong. i wonder whether or not fertile ground now for not is fertile ground now for another do quite well. another party to do quite well. we're going to be watching this throughout of the show throughout course of the show because potentially anyway resignation dropped and resignation may well dropped and this more from this is time for one more from jockeys the tories are jockeys as the tories are already to lose the already on course to lose the next why is really next election. why is really trying sell brexiteers down trying to sell brexiteers down the river on his way out and this is again does the conservative party and rishi

conservative party and the rishi sunak actually stand for anything conservative, does it actually stand for anything like quite some right wing politics? where is it really when it comes to mass immigration? where is he out when it comes to illegal immigration? that's all still rumbling on. and now will he put the cherry on top of that potential resignation cake by saying, know what, saying, actually, you know what, i'm basically i'm going to do? i'm basically going over northern going to hand over northern ireland the european union. i ireland to the european union. i think that would be an absolute disaster. but we're expecting more developments that throughout the course of the show. bring them to you show. i will bring them to you and later on, and a little bit later on, something bit light hearted something a bit light hearted lives jesuits not doom lives in jesuits not all doom and right. i will and gloom. that's right. i will try find live air. i will try to find live on air. i will try to find live on air. i will try to find prince andrew a new job supposedly is at risk of being turfed out of his gaff. and can't have that. conway and we can't have that. conway gbviews@gbnews.uk , i want to gbviews@gbnews.uk, i want to know you, you think know from you, do you think rishi is absolutely dead rishi sunak is absolutely dead in the water? i'm finished. if the alien names the right wing his party i patrick we'll see you in just a couple of minutes

chat.

right. that is 4:00. you're with me. patrick christys on gb news. and i tell you what, the inbox is absolutely flying. why what? because rishi sunak's cabinet is on the ropes. yes. people we are on the ropes. yes. people we are on resignation watch reports this afternoon that home secretary is at least thinking quitting and the prime minister could be about to lose the right wing of his party is all going pete already for rishi isn't it? well, why? because there are rumours he wants to sign off on a deal that would essentially hand ireland over to hand northern ireland over to the eu. as we understand it, heavy hitting tory brexiteers. well, a massive day well, i happy it's a massive day for we'll you the for rishi. we'll bring you the updates that as get now

updates on that as get it. now this is another important one obviously and i definitely want your this because your involvement on this because i for obvious reasons i think for obvious reasons maybe not placed to give my maybe not best placed to give my view on this all the press in wrong when it comes to that reporting of nicola bulley media wants to go off coma said it is extremely by comments from the family and it written to itv family and it is written to itv on sky to explain to them their actions. and this is of course in the wake of them allegedly anyway contacting family after a body had been found. is this the return of gossip press or have the media been responding to massive public interest ? your massive public interest? your views in on that? i want to hear from you and get this as well. we'll get across live to warsaw to from the us president joe biden whenever he decides to shuffle in within the hour shuffle in within the half hour as visits poland . mark the as he visits poland. mark the first anniversary russia's of first anniversary of russia's of ukraine. you can see crowds gathering already there live, images from warsaw. we'll bring you that because it opens up a massive for us people a lot of people out there right now are

saying not a penny more for ukraine now. it's a penny more. that's enough. where skin it time that we stop sending our support the fight against. support in the fight against. i'm to be asking and i'm going to be asking and meghan markle sue south park for taking the mickey out of and the artist formerly as prince harry. oh yeah i'll try and find em. i'll land a job as well. prince andrew gb views of did the press go too far with the nicola bulley case? gbviews@gbnews.uk though, is your latest headlines the one about polly middlehurst . patrick thank you and good afternoon to you. well the top story on gb news today is that the us secretary of state antony says russia's decision to suspend its participate in a nuclear treaty is deeply unfortunate and a response possible vladimir putin may announcement during a major speech on the war in ukraine where also accused the west of trying to acquire limitless

but in other news, get a load of this because we are supposedly anyway on cabinet resignation , anyway on cabinet resignation, there's some serious strong rumours . the address there's some serious strong rumours. the address you there's some serious strong rumours . the address you see rumours. the address you see that might be facing massive backlash several pro—brexit backlash from several pro—brexit right elements of his party. well, why is that ? well, it's in well, why is that? well, it's in relation, of course, to this northern ireland deal. some people say that it would basically hand northern ireland back to the european union and that was to be a massive invasion of our national. there are reports that prime are reports that the prime minister now facing minister could now be facing that cabinet and the that cabinet revolt and the government currently trying government is currently trying to a deal with leaders to to get a deal with eu leaders to see to power sharing see a return to power sharing government in stormont. the government in stormont. but the passage the northern protocol passage of the northern protocol bill passed , would bill which if passed, would allow to unilaterally allow the uk to unilaterally parts of the eu withdrawal agreement has been paused in parliament. essentially, the prospects ditching the bill has been met with dismay from euroskeptic tories. and today jacob rees—mogg accused the prime minister of imitating theresa may's failed brexit. i am not massively bothered by the intricacies and the very fabric

and the fibres , the dna and the and the fibres, the dna and the nitty gritty of the northern ireland protocol. i've said it before. i'll say again, it's really don't. but what i am bothered about is whether or not we're about lose another tory prime minister. whether or not that minister to that tory prime minister is to side potentially with the labour party as opposed to maybe the right wing eurosceptic elements of his own party. and what would that mean for your vote would be to pick through this whole mess? is our reporter olivia. olivia thank you very much. who's thank you very much. so who's angry well, the main name angry and. well, the main name that keeps coming up, steve baken that keeps coming up, steve baker, who isn't secretary of state level position , but he is state level position, but he is a minister state and he holds a lot of sway . the party. he was lot of sway. the party. he was the chairman of the eog that very influential group conservative backbenchers sort of hard line brexiteers as were. and it is as though he could resign if rishi sunak goes ahead pushes through this deal. now a question mark over whether rishi sunak would go ahead. if the dup isn't onside and earlier today

we were saying all he was saying that i thought that he probably wouldn't ahead. now it's looking more likely that he might. he's getting so fed up with what's happening in his own party. he wants to get this over the line. he is very worried about the northern ireland protocol bill, which robert buckland, a former justice secretary, is saying might, now might even be legal, might, now might even be legal, might not be legally binding . might not be legally binding. he's very about that. he he's very worried about that. he wants avoid that whole wants to avoid that whole situation, circumvent it by pushing his brexit pushing through his own brexit deal pushing through his own brexit deal. knows that it would deal. and he knows that it would pass parliament. has the pass in parliament. it has the support labour. so looks support of labour. so it looks possible he could ride possible that he could ride roughshod the wishes . the roughshod over the wishes. the dup and the. and just go ahead with this . but he runs the risk. with this. but he runs the risk. then not only of a backbench conservative revolt which is looking bigger. number ten originally feared , but also of originally feared, but also of losing steve baker, his northern ireland minister. not a good look at losing a northern ireland minister in the middle of this and steve baker is known a serious brexiteer. he has the backing of a lot of conservative

brexit supporting mps. he even people were considering backing him to run for prime minister. so although he might not be a secretary of state, we shouldn't underestimate his influence. but also fundamentally should british prime minister , who british prime minister, who supposedly supported brexit himself, who is in charge of a brexit voting country, be backing kind of deal that would give foreign court jurisdiction over a piece of sovereign territory and allow customs checks for products that are made in northern ireland for entering his own territory now. great britain . why would he do great britain. why would he do this? he's already a he might have seen of sturgeon in scotland. we're not going to leave scotland time soon. leave scotland any time soon. i think just as a piece of paper in his last northern. well, the brexit is there are brexiteers in and outside the in the party and outside the party nigel farage sees party actually nigel farage sees the this deal the merits of this deal interestingly. but there are brexiteers within the party who say that this isn't akin to signing northern ireland over to brussels . the northern ireland brussels. the northern ireland

protocol quite a messy protocol bill quite a messy piece of legislation which might not really work and would ruin our relationship with brussels, whereas sort of fudge whereas this is a sort of fudge which actually in some respects even dup , it's got its even the dup, it's got its merits because . it would stop merits because. it would stop the customs checks on british goods going over to northern ireland, is really the ireland, which is really the main problem. so is an main problem. so there is an argument that , this this is argument that, this is a this is argument that, this is a this is a good position to have reached and that brexit supporters can support it with with a clear . support it with with a clear. but there are plenty people who feel as you say, as though is essentially signing away some of our sovereignty. well, this is he's facing a potentially massive ruction within his own party here that ructions , i party here and that ructions, i suspect. by way. suspect. thank you, by the way. olivia. olivia our political reporter will olivia. olivia our political reporterwill essentially reporter will be essentially about or he decides about whether or not he decides to the erg, the right wing eurosceptic of his conservative party, the likes of which some would argue embody the fabric or the tradition of the conservative party. more of its core values. if he ignores that and he ends up being propped up by labour's keir starmer , i

by labour's keir starmer, i think that's a bad look, but i've got a sneaky suspicion that if he does that, what this means is that people will be able to say rishi sunak does not say that rishi sunak does not support traditional support right traditional conservative elements of his party, does not support eurosceptic elements of his party then people will dig party and then people will dig down and go, well, hang on a minute actual proper minute well, actual proper conservative policies is rishi sunak presiding over what is the new the new the tory party actually stand for? where is he on mass migration ? where is he on mass migration? where is he on mass migration? where is he on illegal immigration for that matter? he on tax? matter? where is he on tax? where this big net zero where is on this big net zero agenda and all of a sudden i think it opens the market up for other parties. and joining me, by the way, in 45 minutes, i'm going to be here in live from nigel farage, the man himself, olivia, mentioned that will olivia, mentioned that that will be . farage join be interesting. farage will join me live on this show shortly. but before i've got deputy leader of ukip rebecca jane. rebecca, thank very much. great to have you on the show. do you feel as though if rishi ignores the right wing elements of his

party, the eurosceptic elements of his party? he is dead in the water. i so because there's one thing about rishi in my opinion , he is the modern day judas . he , he is the modern day judas. he is trying to sell out northern ireland for his 30 pieces of silver all the way through this . and even suella braverman has this that northern ireland being used as a bargaining tool and our biggest bargaining tool there is the problem of the not actually considering people and the wishes of northern of the uk and of everybody voted for brexit. there's one thing and i just don't understand why they don't get this. we voted to leave the eu in its entirety the left part of ireland behind with them and now we are in a very sticky situation . so i most sticky situation. so i most certainly hope that he does face revolt because now what he's trying to do is going through the back door , back to the eu, the back door, back to the eu, begging , the back door, back to the eu, begging, pleading, listen to

what your people wanted leave in the entirety and stop trying to do a backdoor . well, does it do a backdoor. well, does it potentially indicate, rebecca, as i've got an email here from david actually you said you know i'm paraphrasing here david is this you know what i'm saying this you know what i'm saying this is more about the ideological elements. this this really is about the future of our united kingdom. and of course, he's right about would any prime minister who really believes in the united kingdom really believes in national sovereignty even be entity any kind of deal like that will possibly leave old in ireland under the jurisdiction of foreign judges and massive customs checks ? absolutely customs checks? absolutely lutely not like do we not get to stay as a anymore? does our word not anything. we voted to leave northern a part of the united kingdom ? why on earth are they kingdom? why on earth are they being forgotten the good people? and just because have got a bit of c in between us it doesn't mean that that views in their

thoughts don't even matter. that being forgotten all of this and how on earth can we allow to happen so i most certainly hope that any mp or anybody that she's involved in politics who does not support rishi resign for goodness don't let this happen. for goodness don't let this happen . so the rumours are that happen. so the rumours are that supposedly suella braverman very very concerned about all of this. steve baker. very, very concerned about all this as well in your views should suella braverman resign immediately if she's not with what rishi brings to the table? yes those are the reasons why i think that she should resign as well. however, obviously, we have some people within the current government who do speak up on our but not wholeheartedly . well, the wholeheartedly. well, the problem is, is that we have the conservatives leading way on this, and it's a party that never this to happen in the first place. they did this token gesture. they thought we would want to stay in the eu and they did it well when we didn't they

went, oh goodness, now do went, oh goodness, now what do went, oh goodness, now what do we we've got a huge we do so we've got a huge problem on our hands. i would love something . people who love something. people who represent our views to stay , but represent our views to stay, but we have to make a stand and we to leave but we have to make it known not happy. but if known we're not happy. but if rishi sunak decides to go down a route that pleases remainers and the labour party more than , it the labour party more than, it pleases the dup and the eurosceptic wing of the conservative party. surely that indicates that frankly he doesn't really care about euroskeptics or people who are in the dup's way. what would that mean for you? what would you be looking at this and thinking, well, presumably there's fertile ground here for people like your party to go and sweep up people who don't as though the conservative party is actually conservative anymore . actually conservative anymore. yeah, we're already doing that, you know, and i'm i am obviously pleased with that. but you know, the bottom , the ukip heart and the bottom, the ukip heart and certainly at my heart is that

care about people and we care about them being protected and getting a job done. yes, of course. i want many people coming over to us as absolutely possible. but more than that we want people to, you know, to be part of politics, to be listened . that's the important thing for me. so i'm not going to sit here and glow to go more for us and all the rest of it, because that's not what i stand for , a that's not what i stand for, a human. well i think it's very much a case of watch this space, because he's seen as keeping his cards close to his chest. but seriously think there will be resignations over this noises that hearing behind that we're hearing about behind the there will be the scenes to there will be resignations plans ahead. resignations if. he plans ahead. and mean for the and what does that mean for the future of the conservative party? i will be talking very very as well to very soon anyway as well to nigel farage. she's got his views whether or not views about whether or not this alienating right wing , a alienating a right wing, a eurosceptic of the tory eurosceptic element of the tory party rebecca, you very party rebecca, thank you very much on the show. much for coming on the show. rebecca is the deputy rebecca jane is the deputy leader going to leader. ukip now i'm going to gearchange a bit here people because i want a lot of your interaction i always really interaction i always do really but on this

but especially on this one because this is the nicola bulley case that the nation it was rumbling on for more than three weeks and came to a tragic end. in fact, live on this show, of course we revealed that the police revealed that the body had identified as of had been identified as that of nicola bulley. with it came another statement the family statement it's that opened statement and it's that opened up a discussion that i want to have with you all at home and for listening your or for listening your cars or onune for listening your cars or online or you're doing online or whatever you're doing here. in the last few moments on tv have confirmed that they will cope with media watchdog cope fully with media watchdog ofcom's request to explain its actions over the nicola bulley case that's followed following comments made by a family. case that's followed following comments made by a family . so comments made by a family. so they they were devastated they said they were devastated by of that mother and by loss of that mother and friend this is a family statement, but also they put the media very much under scrutiny for the treatment of the case andifs for the treatment of the case and it's hope that lessons will be learned all round. in case you missed it, basically family massively stuck. it just gone easy on tv and said that allegedly, allegedly they tried

to comment. they tried contact the family after . to comment. they tried contact the family after. a body had been found despite the family asking privacy. i know that media attention to this has been a source of big public controversy. plenty of people sent emails on a daily basis saying that we shouldn't have been talking about nicola bulley as much as it was. plenty of people clearly were absolutely gnpped people clearly were absolutely gripped by this and were gripped by this case and were for news about it. so there is that side of it, isn't there? joining me now is former senior investigating officer at the met police is simon hardy. simon, thank you. you very much. initially what do you make of just this offer that we're leading with before we talk, the police really, which is that family have absolutely slammed certain elements of the press going saying that going use on tv, saying that they behaved despicably. i mean, in your view is that kind of behaviour just the gutter press . well, i think i mean , i've . well, i think i mean, i've been a senior investigating officer on quite a number of murders. and i think i've never experienced where the press have

come in at that point. you know, when there's been a confirmation to a family that the person found in whatever circumstance , found in whatever circumstance, you know, the they come in there, there's the press know of there, there's the press know of the protocols around policing in terms of families and officers and the and the restrictions you put around the family and the support you them and they know you know to play the game with the police terms of you know we do talk to each other and we use each other for that for the benefit of trying to find who are wanted or or reassure the pubuc are wanted or or reassure the public or whatever is. so i, public or whatever it is. so i, you know , if that has happened, you know, if that has happened, then you say allegedly , that then you say allegedly, if that has that's has happened, that's that's that's show from that's a really poor show from people . do think this is people. do you think this is quite useful for police, though? and not and i'm certainly not necessarily at all necessarily standing up at all for the way that certain elements of the media behaved in this either. obviously know what elements of the media behaved in this doing, obviously know what elements of the media behaved in this doing, but/iously know what elements of the media behaved in this doing, but is usly know what elements of the media behaved in this doing, but is it ly know what elements of the media behaved in this doing, but is it quite w what i'm doing, but is it quite useful the police now that the narrative has shifted on to certain elements the media certain elements that the media may away , what many people may be away, what many people

thought been quite a thought might been quite a bungled investigation of the nicola bulley . case? yeah, i'm nicola bulley. case? yeah, i'm sure any deflection is. i is good at this moment time but you know it's still very raw. don't forget, this is only yesterday they that that it was they found out that that it was nicola and i think you know if i was to look forward i think and that's what people start to do the certain cases that in this country that change the way that things happen and this could be one of those cases and if nicola was to legacy would be to was to have a legacy would be to stop this happening to other families and you and change the way that this social media has behaved as well you know to , behaved as well you know to, have a positive outcome a positive legacy, which is going to be obviously in the future when there's been a debrief and a thought section of everything that's happened from the police in press and everybody else in the press and everybody else but know, will open up but, you know, this will open up discussions , all sorts of discussions about, all sorts of things also including, know, things also including, you know, part this as well that you look at is that nicola you know if we are to understand that she was

suffering from of mental suffering from a form of mental health, depression brought on by the menopause alcohol you the menopause and alcohol you know, she was perfectly what, what would consider what people would consider perfectly normal for the minutes up until she then obviously if that's case went into the river at that point and that's said that's another discussion is that's another discussion is that you know you see how people can just change you suffer from mental and no matter mental illness and no matter what upheaval is it what sort of upheaval it is it is. it looks mean you is. yeah it looks mean you mentioned about what was going forward i you talked about forward i know you talked about the there and if any the media there and if any change is going to be made to the it's reported. and i the way it's reported. and i find it difficult to see how that practical terms that in practical terms could change really without putting massive press freedoms out . i massive press freedoms out. i think will be pushed back think that will be pushed back to that to to the potential for that to creep other areas. i don't. creep into other areas. i don't. but terms of what next but just in terms of what next in this case, what will be if there'll be there'll be an inquest that just demand talking to see how these things normally . yeah. just to touch on that one point. i mean i don't think many ceos would want to have a complete shutdown of that with the because as i said, we

the press because as i said, we need each other in these particular especially you know, when trying find when you're trying to find people want do people who will want to do a dangerous important but dangerous that's important but the is i mean the next stage is really i mean i think we've heard about i don't think we've heard about the result of a post mortem yet to explain exact cause of death i mean is a bit of know, i mean is a bit of you know, again horrible speculation last night the potential nicola night about the potential nicola was put in there as a deposition afterwards know no evidence afterwards you know no evidence of whatsoever are the of whatsoever but these are the things that need to be sorted out so you'll have the results of the post mortem it out so you'll have the results of the postmortem it might take up to eight weeks for things like toxicology where you understand what's in her bloodstream that could take bloodstream. that could take quite while, come and quite a while, come back and then move towards the then you move towards at the moment what is expected to be a coroner's inquest and that's when the coroner gets the information and an inquest will take place to . explain what the take place to. explain what the know and how nicola comforts died or. well, look, thank you very, very much. that is simon harding. that who is a former senior investigating officer at the met police . and yeah, i've

the met police. and yeah, i've been asking you, ladies and gentlemen, you feel about this, but we'll go to those now. it's a very busy day here at gb news. we will hear president we will hear from us president joe biden very, very shortly . joe biden very, very shortly. and it opens up a discussion. we're going to be having off the back of it, straight off the back of it, straight off the back a single penny to back it a single penny more to ukraine, no i'll see you ukraine, yes or no i'll see you

in two. okay welcome back to gb news. now in a few minutes time, i'm going to be crossing live to warsaw and we're going to hear from the us president joe biden. now he's visiting poland to mark the first anniversary of russia's invasion , ukraine. but russia's invasion, ukraine. but i really think it's throws up a huge amount of questions. americans, by the way, not all of them, obviously, but an increasing number of them are very, very angry amount very, very angry at the amount of money that is still being

sent to ukraine in light of the fact that joe biden has quite a few issues at to deal with infrastructure issues that people feel as though he's neglecting them. i think opens up again in another debate where you on screen, by you watching on your screen, by the way, the polish leader, duda , and those are live images from warsaw. it opens a huge, warsaw. but it opens up a huge, huge, discussion when huge, huge discussion here when it what's happening it comes to what's happening right here at home and calls today liz truss, she's today from liz truss, she's trying resurrect and trying to resurrect herself and bofis trying to resurrect herself and boris as , well, saying boris johnson as, well, saying we fighter jets to we should send fighter jets to ukraine. i know we have this shot last week, but really a discussion about whether or not we should send a single penny more actually, when you look at it, got this massive tax it, we've got this massive tax surplus at the moment. so suppose italy, britain is quids into them and not going to into them and we're not going to go recession anyway. go into a recession anyway. great we're on a great and we're sitting on a load access money, 30 billion load of access money, 30 billion quid than were quid more than we were anticipate it have at anticipate. is it to have at this point as a nation. well, i can't help but wonder. i don't know you much of that know about you how much of that money going to its way money is going to find its way over of course loads over to ukraine of course loads of think that should

of people think that it should and frankly as well there are a lot of people there and the lot of people out there and the polls suggest there polls would suggest there are a lot of people out there, majority of people do support us continuing money into continuing to pump money into ukraine, continuing help with ukraine, continuing to help with our against our defence efforts against russia. just wonder how russia. but i just wonder how long this go on what long can this go on for what national. so you've got rishi sunak and you've lots of joe sunak and you've got lots of joe biden go abroad start biden go abroad and start helping to prop up other nations at vast, vast, vast tens of billions of dollars expense out to that respective taxpayer . so to that respective taxpayer. so at what point does the sympathy out when they say that they haven't got for things over here and they haven't got money to help people through cost of help people through a cost of living are live living crisis? those are live images warsaw. i'm images from warsaw. what i'm going going to dip back going to do is going to dip back into that when joe biden emerges. but i've got loads coming your way. so we'll go to biden he manages to biden as and when he manages to make on stage. before make it on stage. but before that, a recent yougov poll has suggested that the majority of brits think prince harry should receive police protection only if pays for it himself . the if he pays for it himself. the poll also show that more than a

quarter people thought that quarter of people thought that he shouldn't get any police protection . joining now is protection. joining me now is historian licenced lay historian and licenced lay minister church of minister for the church of england is martin whittaker. there he is. thank you very much, martin. right. okay. do you think that prince harry deserves taxpayer funded police . right. okay. i think. okay. what is that deserve because with quite a few people my sympathy harry has run pretty recently okay nevertheless i would be of the majority of people i of course if it's 37% think he should pay that means there's a majority of people that think he shouldn't. so i put myself on reflection and that's one of those people that thinks that while he is in this country that in fact, he should get taxpayer funded protection simply because he is a key member of the royal family even though he has retired from , that though he has retired from, that at the moment and god forbid , at the moment and god forbid, did anything happen to the prince of wales and his family

then in fact, that's point at which harry would realise that being a spare put you a lot closer to the crown than i am for example. and so i think when here for example , i think we do here for example, i think we do need to protect him because has a constitutional significance even though i think he has let a lot of people down. so don't get me wrong, you know, i've got a lot of problems with harry, but i think when he's here we do owe him that constitutional protection. feeling protection. that's my feeling following all following him and we're all skin. it looks as skin. and when it looks as though we're probably about to leave a lot more money over to ukraine harry with his ukraine can't harry with his bumper and rich bumper netflix deal and his rich wife it himself else wife pay for it himself else before started talking wife pay for it himself else before mummy's�*ted talking wife pay for it himself else before mummy's trust, lking wife pay for it himself else before mummy's trust, isn't it. about mummy's trust, isn't it. yeah, well, i'm not towards that, but just that while he's that, but i just that while he's here that that constitutes here that is, that constitutes no we do pay a small no role. we do pay for a small number of, of now as may number of, of now as you may know, the monarch and spouse prince of wales, prince or princess of wales, their get get close their children get get close protection princess anne doesn't prince and sophie wessex don't get partial when their own key business. but i think that because of his particular role

current feeling and i'm willing to be persuaded on this but my current feeling that because of his constitutional role and close to the throne we do need to protect him and his family. but like i say, i mean, i'm not i'm not happy with the way in which he's behaved. but i just think that of his think that because of his particular role, is particular role, spencer is still close to the crown still very close to the crown and we still to protect and we still need to protect that constitute a position, in my i do take your my opinion. but i do take your point. from i'm point. i understand from i'm going assess, right. because going to assess, right. because obviously nobody in their right mind would harry any and mind would harry any harm. and i think there is a massive massive chasm get in place protection do don't wrong but has he don't get me wrong but has he brought a lot of this upon himself i mean before harry an incredibly popular individual when he when the popularity when he was when the popularity polls were about him and polls were done about him and then decides stick two then he decides stick two fingers up britain and brits fingers up to britain and brits the and then top of the way out and then on top of that, massively ramped up that, he's massively ramped up the virtue of the islamist threat by virtue of revealing members the revealing how many members the taliban then taliban he killed. and then describing them as chess pieces . and sorry, but has he done . and i'm sorry, but has he done this a bit to himself in terms of the threat ? well, yes,

of the threat? well, yes, i agree with you. i think he has. sadly, i think he has. you know, i was one of many people who was thrilled to bits at that wedding when he married meghan markle. i thought, this is this represents, you know , a complex, represents, you know, a complex, cosmopolitan that we are cosmopolitan nation that we are now citizens. the world is wonderful and, obviously. i still wish them individually the best but i think he and his wife have behaved very and i think they've brought a great deal. it's on themselves. and i'm very sad. i'm one of those people who is very, very saddened by what's happened since the days and happened since that the days and the happiness of wedding the happiness all of the wedding all ago. now so i all those years ago. now so i think he has brought a great of this on himself. so i would make the position i for constitutional protection reasons . i to say i've reasons. but i have to say i've put myself in camp of people put myself in the camp of people who deeply disappointed with who are deeply disappointed with harry. he disappointed, i have to say that i've loads of to say that i've got loads of emails in on this down the line for me, if that's all right. rather hilariously i will say actually alice, that we should get police protection from

prince, which i think is quite funny. we've also got a lady he's saying, no, we don't think he's saying, no, we don't think he he's virtually he should get it. he's virtually this billy , he's this is from billy, he's virtually so he virtually abdicated. so he should himself. harry should pay for himself. harry should pay for himself. harry should not be allowed armed protection . and even if he pays protection. and even if he pays for it, as constitutional role in the coronation he pays for, it opens up door for any of the to celeb pay the matt to have armed protection. armed police are for not hire that's for men and that's interesting view actually because it happens whenever george walks over here can he pay them and take bobbies off? over here and up. off? i'll be over here and up. going on protection, i suppose is i'm just going to is that one. i'm just going to ask you something bit different on this topic now. have you heard the fact that meghan heard about the fact that meghan markle going to markle is reported going to reportedly suing reportedly thinking of suing netflix, not netflix , south netflix, not netflix, south park? so i'll get it right. and then south park over this with a quite witty takedown of . the me quite witty takedown of. the me you've mentioned that is a spare is book called spare south park called it where which i thought was quite funny. do you think that this absolutely take that this just absolutely take a joke one in harry's don't take

it himself so seriously. i think it himself so seriously. i think it is really very sad. i think he's got a damaged young man it sounds like meghan is as well and i think, you know in many ways the whole reaction with people does show a great deal of damage. i i've a really based off of a genuine womanly do and i for that healing. i pray for that healing. but i do also think they do need to take themselves seriously. they do to think about what they do need to think about what they can do to damage. you know, if you want to harmony in a family and a family, it takes both sides . i'm and a family, it takes both sides. i'm sure things will happen on the other side. absolutely that's the case. absolutely sure that's the case. i'm doubt that discussion i'm no doubt that discussion that both guys. i think that from both guys. but i think what done is they've what they've done is they've deepened basically don't deepened it and basically don't negotiate your way back . a negotiate your way back. a heaung negotiate your way back. a healing situation by megaphone . healing situation by megaphone. and i think that's the tragic view of what they've done. megaphone diplomacy does not heal any family split. so yeah, i would say protect them for constitutional reasons . i wish constitutional reasons. i wish them no harm whatsoever. of course, but i do feel they have a great deal of this on

themselves. yes, i do. i'm very saddened by irony is that saddened by the irony is that the constitutional reasons and i appreciate what saying, appreciate what you're saying, i'm protectiveness i'm slightly of protectiveness guy of where he is in guy because of where he is in line despite the fact line the throne despite the fact that he has done some would say so much damage the institution of monarchy . i your of the monarchy. i take your point both and thank point on both marks and thank you really enjoyed that. martin was historian, a licence lay was it historian, a licence lay minister church of minister for the church of england the news? england reacting to the news? the brits think prince the 37% of brits think prince harry should , for his own police harry should, for his own police protection and now into this inbox because , surely i'm going inbox because, surely i'm going to going to warsaw in to hear to be going to warsaw in to hear from joe. it is surprise really taking him rather a long time to up to that podium of but i want to know from you do you think now that there should be a penny more sent to ukraine americans are increasingly becoming angry about the amount money that president over ? we president is sending over? we had truss chime in saying had liz truss chime in saying fine suggests we have boris johnson previously saying the jazz christine's been to on and christine says no, no, now enoughis christine says no, no, now enough is enough. our own people are struggling. but then just

two above, got one two emails above, i've got one from says definitely from richard who says definitely they keep sending money. ukraine where do we go from here, ladies and gentlemen? that's what i want and out of the back of president biden talking and presumably promising as i'm presumably promising as well i'm going to be whether or not we'll have debate on this whether or have a debate on this whether or not we should be sending a single penny more ukraine. single penny more to ukraine. there very very strong views there are very very strong views on both sides of that get coming in i put those views in now and i can put those views to our debaters . in now and i can put those views to our debaters. for in now and i can put those views to our debaters . for those of to our debaters. for those of you watching on tv, you can actually see now as thousands of people are gathering to watch is eagerly anticipated speech by biden who of course it comes after as well doesn't it? president putin delivered his state of the nation address in moscow . he claimed that ukraine moscow. he claimed that ukraine has become a hostage of the kyiv regime and its western masters, which have effectively occupied the country now downing . street the country now downing. street for what it's worth, they said that they will not in their support for ukraine soon. he's under pressure to do more to aid the of ukraine. let's

this war. we can end this war whenever wants to. but what this does for us now is open up a big discussion on this because we've got today just hours really before joe biden took to the stage that is this show force in a show of unity say nato's back baby we're not going to let you run roughshod over. vladimir putin. what we've had over here is liz truss coming out and saying that she be in favour of fighter jets. saying that she be in favour of fighterjets. boris saying that she be in favour of fighter jets. boris johnson we know in favour of sending know is in favour of sending fighter jets. know is in favour of sending fighterjets. i think there even fighter jets. i think there even a saying it quite fancy a quote saying it quite fancy sending all of our fighter jets to seemed like maybe to ukraine seemed like maybe slightly error slightly a strategic error if you there we go. and you ask me. but there we go. and it's going to up it's going to open up a discussion us, which we're going to shortly, should to have shortly, which is should we a single penny we actually send a single penny more because we're more to. because if we're looking find looking our only only find answers here in this country. now they're getting better. we're we of we're being that we have, of course, issues. comes to course, got issues. it comes to the of living crisis as we the cost of living crisis as we are told that we can't are being told that we can't give sector a pay give public sector workers a pay rise. certainly anything rise. certainly not anything like they want. like the pay rise they want. but then we're also being told the economic figures on way avoid economic figures on way to avoid a the

a recession. oh, has the benefits growth, have we got benefits of growth, have we got a n £30 billion left to us an £30 billion left for to us spend? we be spending spend? should we be spending that right home or that money right here at home or should sending that to should we be sending that to ukraine? because i think that if that to ukraine, more and that money to ukraine, more and more are to be more people are going to be quite about it. are you quite angry about it. are you getting in touch just to react straight the of straight away? off the back of biden ? i chris has said biden? i mean, chris has said that up to switch off that he's up to switch off because joe biden is not a natural. i've got sympathy for you, chris although just you, chris although you just emailed that emailed him, which implies that you are actually watching. you are actually still watching. so there we go. keep keep the fight. keep the faith. biden is a hypocrite. this is from phil. he's talking about he's saying he's talking about sovereignty. he doesn't particularly own and particularly enjoy our own and say, going be say, look, we're going to be talking and am going to talking that and i am going to be about whether or not be talking about whether or not we spend a penny to we should spend a penny to ukraine this block and white. i know. but that's the discussion i'm going to shortly i'm going to have shortly a penny more ukraine, possibly penny more to ukraine, possibly . and in just . no, possibly. and in just a few minutes. crucially, i am going to be hearing from nigel farage, because that was the big that we were talking about earlier today, is about sell earlier today, is about to sell out the brexit backing element

of his party in of being propped up of his party in of being propped ”p by of his party in of being propped up by the labour party leader keir starmer. so that you can get the northern ireland deal through and will that mean talk of cabinet resignations? talk of massive, massive disquiet and discomfort the back rooms of discomfort in the back rooms of the tory party? nigel will be with me live when come back. but right now it's the headlines with polly . good evening with polly. good evening. it's 5:04 and gb news has. the with polly. good evening. it's 5:04 and gb news has . the latest 5:04 and gb news has. the latest news headlines for you. and as you've just been saying. us president joe biden has pledged the united states and nato's support for ukraine will not waver. a year on from russia's invasion. biden was speaking to thousands gathered the centre of warsaw, telling the crowds the ukrainian people's love of their country will prevail in the war against russia. it follows talks he held this afternoon the president of poland, a day after his surprise visit to ukraine. the two leaders addressed

security issues and growing nato's. in poland . the united nato's. in poland. the united states and nations of europe do not seek control or destroy russia . the west was not russia. the west was not plotting to attack russia and putin. today it believes russian citizens only want to live in peace with their neighbours. are not the enemy . this war is never not the enemy. this war is never a necessity. it's a tragedy . a necessity. it's a tragedy. president putin chose this war every day war continues as his choice . he could end the war, choice. he could end the war, the world. it simple. if russia's invading ukraine, it would end the war. if ukraine stop defending itself against, russia, it would be the end of ukraine ukraine. well was u.s. ukraine ukraine. well was us. president biden in warsaw? just a few moments ago and earlier , a few moments ago and earlier, us secretary of state antony blinken . russia's decision to

blinken. russia's decision to its participation in a nuclear treaty is deeply and irresponsible . vladimir putin irresponsible. vladimir putin made the announcement during a major speech on the war in ukraine, where he also accused west of trying to acquire limited power. russia has now summoned the us ambassador over what it describes as an aggressive course set by washington . but russia does washington. but russia does abandon the treaty, but suspend its participation before resuming the discussion of this treaty , we must first understand treaty, we must first understand what such countries have nato like france and great britain, aspire to do. and how will we take that strategic also into account ? well i news at home the account? well i news at home the media regulator says it's extremely concerned and by the actions of two particular broadcasters following comments made by nicola bulley family both and sky news contacted the 45 year old's relatives after the body found in the river wyre

on sunday. despite an appeal from the family for privacy, ofcom has written to both companies asking them to themselves. police also being criticised over the way they handled the case. former detective peter blakesley told gb news that he feels the investor nation hasn't quite been up to scratch . it's going been up to scratch. it's going to have to take a very long, hard look how they've conducted of this not only the investigation but very much the communication. and i hope that the wider british police take some lessons from all of this because quite frankly, if you get the messaging wrong people don't believe you they're not going to trust you investigations and that think is part of the reason why so many people turned up. so mark was on what a former conservative mp jailed for sexually assaulting teenager has been freed from prison serving half his term. imran khan was jailed for 18

months last may for , groping months last may for, groping a 15 year old boy after a party in thousand and eight. the 49 year old lost a court of appeal challenge against his conviction and sentence in december . and sentence in december. consuming news supermarkets are expanding the list of fruits and vegetables that they'll be limiting for. vegetables that they'll be limiting for . asda is one limiting for. asda is one supermarket that's going to be customers to a maximum of three items from a list of eight which includes tomato , broccoli and includes tomato, broccoli and raspberries. morrisons will also be introducing similar restrictions from wednesday , but restrictions from wednesday, but weather across europe and africa being blamed for the disruption in supply chains. retailers warning could last for weeks . warning could last for weeks. the uk's medical officer has criticised the marketing of vapes. criticised the marketing of vapes . chris whitty described vapes. chris whitty described them as appalling, saying it's clear some products are designed to appeal to children. research published last july found the number of young people is

about levels of discomfort and disquiet in the tory party. cabinet resignation fashion watch is well and truly on the. will suella braverman stand down. she's not happy about this deal that rishi supposedly want signed in relation to northern ireland. other hard line brexiteers , it would appear as brexiteers, it would appear as well, potentially on the ropes. steve baker and others to add to that list. is rishi sunak potentially to sell out the brexiteer backing elements of his own party, of his party in order to get something through to cosy up to the european union and with it as well, to cosy up to the european union and with it as well , massively and with it as well, massively strengthen. sir keir starmer stands to be the next prime minister , the united kingdom, by minister, the united kingdom, by allowing him wave this through. big debates whether or not anyone will go. but another question for me frankly is that are the eurosceptic of the are the eurosceptic wings of the conservative party being sold down the river? if they are, where do they go ? joining me now where do they go? joining me now to talk about this is gb news presenter farage. nigel presenter is nigel farage. nigel you very much. sorry you were held biden. they're not held up by biden. they're not the be held up by

the only people to be held up by him. take on. do him. but look, your take on. do you reckon? do reckon? the you reckon? do you reckon? the rishi going to sell out rishi sunak is going to sell out the orgy . well, look, he won't the orgy. well, look, he won't call this a sell—out. he will say that the agreement he's reached with the european union is significantly better than that. is significantly better than that . that was agreed by is significantly better than that. that was agreed by boris johnson . and actually, in terms johnson. and actually, in terms of a deal itself. he'll be right , because at least with a green channel, the goods that are going the mainland into northern ireland are not on to the republic. if it genuinely a green line that would be a significant improvement on the mess of where we are now. now there is of course this potential legislation on the table that says we could just the whole thing. there's not a cash in hell of him and hunt doing that. i don't think boris johnson himself either would ever have pulled that trigger . ever have pulled that trigger. and he will gamble . sunak will and he will gamble. sunak will gamble that however much the may

be rattled . at the end of the be rattled. at the end of the day , most conservatives are not day, most conservatives are not as brave when . it comes to going as brave when. it comes to going through the lobby on a three line whip as they are in the weeks leading up to it. line whip as they are in the weeks leading up to it . and he weeks leading up to it. and he will gamble that they won't actually be any resignations. that's my take. yeah. so this could be a do you think he'll basically say to them, look, if you that you're going to resign? well, you can wave goodbye to the tories being in charge at the tories being in charge at the next election that's already pretty so think pretty shaky. so do you think down she braverman etc. down she suella braverman etc. steve will talk . good game steve baker will talk. good game but they will stand firm . well, but they will stand firm. well, steve baker, i mean, you know he resigns day and he's back the next i mean i wouldn't worry about him too much. there'll be huge on braverman from huge pressure on braverman from the eurosceptic wing and she's i mean, she's a very, very genuine eurosceptic in every regard . but eurosceptic in every regard. but do i see a giving up the job of home secretary over the fact that the have a continued role ? that the have a continued role? i wouldn't have thought so. no

really wouldn't have thought so . there'd be the usual 30 or 40 backbenchers. i don't see this turning out into an all out rebellion. i really, really don't . does the conservative don't. does the conservative party actually stand for traditional conservative values more? nigel i've no idea patrick what it stands for. more? nigel i've no idea patrick what it stands for . literally. what it stands for. literally. noidea what it stands for. literally. no idea whatsoever. and nor most of them all. i do know is they believe in the big state. the state must intervene in every aspect of our lives . the state aspect of our lives. the state knows best individual personal responsibility is out of the window and frankly, you know you can't differentiate much now between them and keir starmer's labour party especially now that corbyn has really been out and just in this high tax , low just in this high tax, low growth getting i mean not breaking away from the european open border, immigration i mean, frankly, but people like the whole thing is very , very

whole thing is very, very depressing indeed. i can imagine you can read in the paper between the two main parties. nigel, i'll just leave you by this. what we got coming up on your show. well, we're going to be tonight very much be talking tonight very much about about what putin had to say earlier on today and whether there's actually any in sight for this war at all. on the one hand, we have trusts and johnson, both of whom seem to want to send the entire r.a.f. to go and support president zelenskyy on the other, we have language over nuclear arms limitation treaties from . putin limitation treaties from. putin and it looks to me like we're in for a very, very long that'll last many, many years . and the last many, many years. and the risk of escalation i think becomes more real with each day. nigel, thank you very much. it'll be gripping stuff as ever. farage i make sure that catch him coming up live on tv screens. i don't go radios seven p. right okay look as we just heard in the last few minutes

from president joe biden, he was speaking in warsaw, the us president warned russia that tougher sanctions in response to the invasion of ukraine would this week. he also praised western nations for putting on a united . it was a bit of a tub united. it was a bit of a tub thumping speech. well as far as joe biden can deliver, it is a tough touching speech, really saying that nato was now more unhed saying that nato was now more united than ever. liz truss, as you just heard from nigel that liz and boris johnson, liz truss and boris johnson, that demanding uk supplies ukraine fighter on top of ukraine fighter jets on top of the £23 billion worth of military aid. that's been given. you can add that to all the other aid that we've given them as well. and you're in the realms of it being around 12 billion. you are what are on your there? volodymyr your screens there? volodymyr zelenskyy steps zelenskyy walking up the steps of sunak that of downing with rishi sunak that was from the latest trip for volodymyr zelenskyy where he turned course, and turned up, of course, and essentially thanked us in advance for fighter jets, which we yet them. before he we have not yet them. before he went around the european and asked them for the very same thing. with some analysts thing. but with some analysts predicting growing

predicting a long war, growing problems at home as well, shall we continue to watch send money to ukraine. there's massive , to ukraine. there's massive, massive annoyance around america at the minute is joe biden yet to visit the site and he wants a big disaster in america by the way that's taken place recently with that train crash and that kind that's taken kind of chemical that's taken place. signing another $500 place. the signing another $500 million already, $112 billion in total to ukraine. and people there in america say, well, what about at home here, joe? and people are starting to say that right how we have right now. how on can we have the money keep sending it the money to keep sending it over to ukraine when we have people here who afford to people here who can't afford to pay people here who can't afford to pay rise? but then gary makes a great before i go to my guests i want to this across because want to get this across because this is where the debate this really is where the debate is on inbox as patrick is gary on the inbox as patrick you're talking about saving pennies. biden talking pennies. joe biden is talking about that is the about freedom and that is the most commodity. and most priceless commodity. and that a of people that is where a lot of people are. you are saying we are. loads of you are saying we have ukraine. i just have to funding ukraine. i just want whether or not we should want to whether or not we should send them a penny more. with me is dr. peter adams , who is is dr. peter adams, who is a nafive is dr. peter adams, who is a native historian, journalist and

an act reserve officer. look you very, very much. should we send ukraine a penny more ? we should ukraine a penny more? we should send them whatever it for. however this goes on, we can't look into the future and. know how long this this war will go on. but i. the improved wisdom the moment is that it's going to go on for months. if not years. and can you put a cost on freedom. you know, we have a moral responsibility . help these moral responsibility. help these people. well, this is the thing . and you're trying to put a price on it. well, i am trying to put a price on it because you have people over here will feel as though they can't get a pay rise at all for an public. services are in the toilet and people are choosing between heating and eating . and then all heating and eating. and then all of a sudden our economy potentially does better than expected, maybe a growth, not recession, maybe we have extra 30 billion quid to play with and then they that 30 billion quid

going to kyiv and not crewe or somewhere could rebuild crewe for 30 billion was be fair but the people i think would have would have a right to wonder whether or not a government is acting in its own best national interest. thoughts on that ? interest. thoughts on that? well, this some well, let's give this some context . president biden in kyiv context. president biden in kyiv yesterday was very like president john f kennedy in berlin in june 1963. so standing up to the russians , threats in up to the russians, threats in the middle of the cold war and this is we're in then we're back in a new cold war. and significant proportion of the uk gdp went to preserving freedom partly in terms of uk armaments and the armed forces but aid to our compatriot and colleagues overseas and that's where we are again . and nobody in those sort again. and nobody in those sort of said, oh, we remember the winter of discontent. this was the same summer time. no one in

those days sort of said it's either all you know, this is the real world we're in. it's got to be both . okay. oh these people be both. okay. oh these people who are freezing and starving just the same as people in the united kingdom , moral and united kingdom, moral and physical help that we can give them. but we have to look our foreign population. but it's not either or it can't be. well a lot of people. i think , are lot of people. i think, are becoming increasingly uncomfortable about very, very high stakes decisions being made behind closed doors . so let's behind closed doors. so let's say five suggests an example. let's you and i wake up one morning and by the way, you might think is the right thing to do. i i'm staying out of whether or not i think is right to send the suggest i'm just saying that if we were to wake up one morning and we sent five suggests ukraine and reacted suggests to ukraine and reacted to by saying this is world to that by saying this is world war iii. now the british public never have a say on that. never have had a say on that. the american would have the american would never have had on that. and we are

had a say on that. and we are already sending over a lot of if we continue that and this we continue to do that and this does result in world war three. the grey suits without the grey in suits without consulting male viewers or listeners conceivably would have made strategic that could have cost us all our lives and i find that a bit rubbish right. that's not going to happen. we all know near world war three we were far closer . the cold war that ended closer. the cold war that ended 1989, 1990 than we are today. putin makes all these threats. he made a threat almost a year ago, saying he'd put his nuclear on extra alert. it never happened. none of the russian in ukraine have got embassy equipment . you don't launch equipment. you don't launch nuclear weapons unless you protect your own troops . none of protect your own troops. none of the none of the missiles gone out on any special exercises . out on any special exercises. and believe you me, we would know that because all satellites tracking them all. so there's not a iota of a move to or towards that kind of escalation . but all we're doing is talking

the fear factor amongst ourselves which putin is very happy about. i saying we're edging closer to world war three. that's not going happen. now, the point about great men in grey suits going to war. i mean, do united kingdom when it declares war. this isn't a sort of session general election type . it's politicians are dealing with very , very sensitive with very, very sensitive intelligence , but they can't intelligence, but they can't share with us now because normally some sort vote unless there's normally some sort and some of that very reassuring obviously to be fair , there's obviously to be fair, there's normally sort of vote in normally some sort of vote in parliament. but my concern is that it wouldn't be very that it wouldn't be a very important be our important i mean, it will be our actions that politicians take they're sending fighter jets. don't vote don't know if we'd have to vote or not parliament they've, or not in parliament they've, not on anything else pretty not vote on anything else pretty much so if much so far, have they. so if they a device us, have they send a device to us, have that and then that caused escalation, this would be mind really. i wonder really. and i just wonder whether or it's becoming

whether or not it's becoming increasing any hard to justify whether or not it's becoming incr

heading. all right. good stuff . heading. all right. good stuff. thank you very, very much, dr. peter. out of that nature, historian, journalist, actress of officer. i've spent a lot of those questions that are about, frankly, whether or not we should a single more should send a single more commonly, emailing it commonly, we believe emailing it would bag would look very much a mixed bag as the is with ukraine in the inbox pretty much 5050 quite a lot you saying look this a big waste of etc. this sound waste of money etc. this sound horrible i think we horrible but i don't think we should money. we also should send that money. we also have where andrew have an individual where andrew says, to really says, look, i used to really like you, patrick, but i've got to admit, i you're wrong on this. basically say this. and basically say two things. support just to things. i support putin just to god absolutely what god for i absolutely doubt what i concerned the i am concerned about is the british staring down the barrel of massive, massive, massive, out—of—control annual it's out—of—control annual and it's having isn't it about how having that isn't it about how much are you to accept when maybe things aren't great at home? the minute but yeah very much a mixed bag but all views welcome gbviews@gbnews.uk. well moving on from that now we'll talk about another one that has proved yet again very content yes actually on have confirmed that they collapse right that they will collapse right with ofcom's request to explain

its actions over the nicola bulley case following comments by her family about the invasive media treatment received from certain broadcasters , a body was certain broadcasters, a body was found in the river. the media watchdog said they were extremely concerned the extremely concerned about the actions outlets in actions of some outlets in approaching close to approaching those close to nicola, criticism has also nicola, but criticism has also been directed towards lancashire police putting sensitive police for putting sensitive information there. all information out there. we all know school that now know the school about that now joining now to give joining me now to give us insight from media insight from the media perspective this element perspective, this or an element of the perspective is of the media perspective is newspaper and media newspaper editor and media consultant neil wallace. neil, thank you i you've been on thank you i know you've been on the for a while there. the line for a while there. right. so do you think that the likes of sky and itv were bowing out of order point of it out of order to the point of it being suppressed . they contacted being suppressed. they contacted nicola's allegedly a body nicola's family allegedly a body had found . i don't know the had been found. i don't know the exact details. i was very surprised by it . exact details. i was very surprised by it. i exact details. i was very surprised by it . i don't know surprised by it. i don't know what level the contact was made in terms of seniority within itv sky. they're both very reliable,

broad casters. but i think this is a very, very common and frankly unusual situation when you think that . to certain you think that. to certain extent the bully family had become very disillusioned with the actions of the lancashire police, they were desperate for the story not to be true that she had fallen in the river then you had this freelance independent search expert allegedly come along who then stood up and said she is not in the water. they crossed that with great . on relief and what with great. on relief and what happened after that? we had ten days, two weeks of just constant headunes days, two weeks of just constant headlines about, where is she, etc. and that's understand how that happened . but what you have

that happened. but what you have is the bully family. that happened. but what you have is the bully family . frankly, is the bully family. frankly, they embraced the contact with they embraced the contact with the and they embraced it because it kept the story , the it kept the story, the headlines, which is where they want was the big problem with this has been the behaviour yet again on social media and the tarring of the regular media to a large extent because it's neil i'm just going to interject if that's all right because there's a lot of absolute filth on social media. the point i will make is there always what the bully family was overtly name skilling on tv. now i've got these papers in front of me. i've had them in front of me every day for however long. and it's nicola bulley nicola bulley. now there's two fold things to that, isn't there? because other of this because the other side of this is now they would not is interest. now they would not have kept putting the nicola bulley story, the front page, if

it didn't sell newspapers . we it didn't sell newspapers. we would know of continued to talk about it and then not being a big public interest on. the inbox on the clips that we put on social i'm certainly not bracketing those in the same bracket, but otherwise it's gone on tv. so were press legitimate in going as big as they did on this nicola bulley missing persons case because actually were they being fuelled like it or low that by the amount of people in the public it wanted to there's a certain catch 22 to that there wasn't the you know if your viewers want to watch and eat up every word about this story then that's what you provide now you do it in contacts , do it in balance you contacts, do it in balance you make sure that you do is . contacts, do it in balance you make sure that you do is. in appropriate way. but know when

you when you as a tv station for instance, and newspapers and all of those other are being fed material by the lancashire about nicola bulley and her private health, etc, then that is going to fuel the news isn't it. it just and that's been the way of, of these things i was very, very surprised that itv and sky got so badly wrong and i think they will pay a price that. but you know what, we're all human mistakes made it was something of a bombshell. it came through that a body had been found and maybe judgement has failed , that maybe judgement has failed, that they were not all perfect , but they were not all perfect, but is the truth of the matter that where the mainstream media was

concerned they were part of a relationship of if you like then i think answers yes, they were is the sad fact maybe that if somebody in a newsroom had not made contact with the family once they knew a body had been found that maybe they would have been shouting out by their bosses for, say, a funeral and gone to the family for comment on this. they are in a news industry and they want they want to be able to at say they've contacted the family to get their views to their next headune. their views to their next headline . i think the that headline. i think the that inevitably must be but similarly a case this high profile i would be very very surprised if a report on the ground simply it upon themselves now whether a reporter on the ground misjudged their relationship with the bully family and thought that

they had a better more intimate than they really did. that's a different matter . but that's not different matter. but that's not the sort of call i would have expected. a reporter on a paper, any paper that i worked for to have made off their own bat, they would they would talk to their bosses or. thank you very, very much now. oh interesting insight, i think, into the inner workings , the media landscape. workings, the media landscape. neil wallace is a former newspaper editor of media consultant. right. massively busy day here on gb news. should prince harry have to pay for his own own protection in the uk? lots apparently think he lots of you apparently think he should his police should pay for his police protection. be discussing protection. i'll be discussing all of that very shortly .

duke of sussex , a legal battle duke of sussex, a legal battle with the home office over the decision to reduce his protection whilst in the uk. the decision was made back in february 2020, shortly , the duke february 2020, shortly, the duke announced that he was stepping back from royal duties. finding freedom safe. the legal case already cost the taxpayer a whopping 300 grand. joining me now is , the former head of now is, the former head of scotland yard royalty protection command is dying davy's dying. thank you. great to have you on the show. first and foremost, does harry even need armed protection. if he's in the uk . protection. if he's in the uk. well, good afternoon . no, unless well, good afternoon. no, unless the threat says he does . and i'd the threat says he does. and i'd just like to explain a huge process that goes in to actually assessing threat. it's not only from in this country , it's also from in this country, it's also from in this country, it's also from five other countries which have a partnership sharing, their intelligence. so i assure you, there's a full audit trail that goes in to assessing whether he needs it. and the

truth is, he get it and has got it when as he came to his grandmother's funeral and grandfather's funeral , he got grandfather's funeral, he got it. he will get if the assessment is there and if and when he is with other royal. so if he decides to come back for the coronation there will be a risk assessment done on his behalf and they will determine whether or not in their he needs armed protection. it said so. so really the situation be out of his control because if the level of security across different countries decide that prince harry does not need armed guards then he's a cheek. ask if you want to stay . well, the king's want to stay. well, the king's king's council actually represent the home office actually used , the word actually used, the word arrogant. i think he's arrogant. i think by his own behaviour and publishing some of the detail inside his book about the internal security of his

father's residence, balmoral all his own. i mean , the word idiot his own. i mean, the word idiot comes to mind , if i'm honest. comes to mind, if i'm honest. yeah, die and. you know, people will say, well, he can surely it himself. is there a bigger issue here? all metropolitan police being for hire. here? all metropolitan police being for hire . so if prince being for hire. so if prince harry decided that , well, i'll harry decided that, well, i'll love you a load of cash whoever pays for it. i love a load of cash. and all of a sudden we've got mac police officers, that being his armed guard, i mean, they be attended to. they should be attended to. stabbings they should be tending to domestic abuse cases. it should to everything should be tending to everything really, shouldn't they? and yet, prince presumably will be prince harry presumably will be perfectly beck and perfectly happy for his beck and these bobbies to be taken off the. well, they wouldn't be taken off of . they're highly taken off of. they're highly trained individuals. and but yes, they should go where. the threat is actually greatest. clearly, at the moment we protect the king, his family , protect the king, his family, the future king and his . the the future king and his. the rest of them do get protection on an ad basis, as and when

required . that's what i'm required. that's what i'm saying. but there's never in all so far as i know, 300 years of history that i've looked at, there's never been a precedent for an individual paying , for for an individual paying, for royalty protection from . the royalty protection from. the royal protection and vip. come on, it's never been done. that's never to say it shouldn't be done. but in my humble one, at the moment it doesn't appear as if requires it. but i think a penod if requires it. but i think a period where he keeps his big mouth would be advantageous to his own security. but if you look at history as i have, because i lecture on it in terms of royalty security, the number of royalty security, the number of times royalty protection officer has had to throughout history pull a gun out and point anybody is so small. it wouldn't even go on any growth . the truth even go on any growth. the truth is, yes, they are armed as and when necessary . but the truth when necessary. but the truth is, if, as i have done, you look at attacks , assassinations at attacks, assassinations throughout history , it is very throughout history, it is very rare a protection officer pulls his guns out and does need it.

so evidence is in one sense, he doesn't it? he's got a huge retinue of police officers from this country, american ex—special forces, the great respect he doesn't need the rest of his paying anything. now, look , thank you very, very much. look, thank you very, very much. has done dave is there, who is a former head scotland yard royalty protection command, who's basically saying , who's basically saying, according to him anyway, the assessment will be done on harry and if they decide that he doesn't need an armed then that's that frankly in the matter shouldn't be made to do it. highly trained officers should it. should be made to do it. taxpayers to pay for it. taxpayers have to pay for it. and indeed it is quite arrogant to ask for it. but there's another royal story. coal another royal story. the coal mine. not the mine. no, it's not the possibility meghan possibility of meghan potentially park . potentially suing south park. no, it's the that no, in fact, it's the fact that prince has and all shed a prince andrew has and all shed a tear at this point. i think. and gentlemen, supposedly fallen gentlemen, as supposedly fallen on and how on earth on hard times and how on earth can poor little andy who is was given a house by the queen a wedding present but chose to sell it to a kazakh billionaire

for £50 million in two thousand and seven. how can afford the maintenance of the swimming pool on his aristocratic estate if he stops getting handouts? this is the news of the crushing reality for prince andrew because he might have to move out of his lovely lovely estate in windsor because supposedly he's going to get cut off by charles and his £249,000 and a year grant really maintenance allowance will be stopped. well we have a solution for prince andrew, something that's been bothering me for a while. and i decided the solution for is probably just to get a job like a normal person. so i'm going to try to tart up prince cv for him and let's see if we can get on to a job bloke. suggestions for a for job andrew more than welcome vaiews@gbnews.uk so i was thinking right. we know that he doesn't sweat so. abbey fine operating a furnace and then that got me thinking again,

which is always dangerous i know, but what kind of place uses a furnace ? pizza parlours. uses a furnace? pizza parlours. okay we know he likes a pizza. we know he's a fan of pizza express. don't and as luck would have it. as luck would have it, i was talking to the internet and there is a job going it's live now this job as a senior pizza chef, a pizza express in kingston upon thames he would earn up to £11 hour. earn up to £11 an hour. apparently which is, i think , apparently which is, i think, decent for him. and it comes with . so the job out of the ties with. so the job out of the ties is that it comes with a free tasty pizza shift to keep you going at a 50% discount to treat yourself your friends and your family, drinks included. and they get see my mom, what else could he do? what could he do? so, wow he's been looking after the queen's corgis, supposedly after her majesty sadly passed last well, good of london last year. well, good of london are advertise saying for a driver on a day care are advertise saying for a driver on a day car e £24,000 driver on a day care £24,000 a year he'd get a van he'd get 400 quid monthly allowance , his own quid monthly allowance, his own dog. he must be english to at

least a conversational though he literally speaks the queen's disney so i imagine he could walk them around the grounds one house it's pretty one more out there is no one else could he do what else want? i know he's a massive of international travel, isn't? yes, exactly. you don't get a name like and miles without globetrotting just little smidgen do you and he could earn. i think we found a winner here on day he earn up to £90,000 a year as a worldwide travel agent for daniel, a flight the only deal candidate got this needs to be this is a jobs alive now can check him out needs to be highly service orientated and of course will help you build their customer base. help you build their customer base . well andrew got to earn base. well andrew got to earn across eastern loads of public service i as we all know his networking skills up oh i mean chefs kiss to that so time him guys chefs kiss to that so time him guys applying chefs kiss to that so time him guys applying i think not sure how he doing the interview though but that we go so jobs

for and anyway caitlin coming in gbviews@gbnews.uk next people the agency responsive for providing covid test kits for the uk has been accused of letting down the british taxpayer. find out what. back

in to. all right. so gb news for you now, people, the responsible for securing covid kits for the uk has been of failing to the interests of the taxpayers. so uk health security agency awarded multi—million pound government contract to . medco, government contract to. medco, a global company but one of metro's main competitors , says metro's main competitors, says that other companies who wanted provide test kits were ignored andifs provide test kits were ignored and it's accusing uk health security of cronyism . says brits security of cronyism. says brits are now paying more for the case than they should be. here the man himself to talk about this, charlie peters. he has the story. charlie, explain this . so

story. charlie, explain this. so it's a it's a strong statement from competitor from. this competitor today, a man called frederick fitz, writes a thank a director of supply is for medical equipments and some gloves . he runs two and some gloves. he runs two companies, novum group and nb medtech. he sold gb news the very bold statement that the uk hca is engaged in cronyism. he believes in how. it's awarding these contracts they gave believes in how. it's awarding these contracts they gav e £238 these contracts they gave £238 million to worth contracts to this company. medco week to run from yesterday , february 20th from yesterday, february 20th until august the 20th in supplying lateral flow . now, supplying lateral flow. now, more controversially , this issue more controversially, this issue is that filter tried to tank this competitor and dozens other suppliers have been applying for the same contract since it went up june the 13th of last year. so over six months they've not been evaluated. this thing called a dynamic pricing system . in 2021, the average time be evaluated was just under two weeks. now it's been one over six months. a lot of these companies are saying, well, why weren't why don't we looked

weren't we? why don't we looked at assessed? so at why weren't we assessed? so this this competitor spoke to me earlier. he said that cronyism it near impossible to break into central procurement which is underpinned by personal relationships so very strong terms the health agency terms here the health agency obviously got back to us on this. yes, they gave us a statement, but got a statement out saying so they they picked out saying so they they picked out particular the issue that they were extending contract they were extending contract they course they already had. but of course they already had. but of course the said, well , why the competitor said, well, why didn't you come to us and ask us for on this ? and they also for input on this? and they also went on say that these evaluations have taken over a two stage process and that because they've got enough for now . they're not going to now. they're not going to continue to evaluate anyone else and opposing evaluations for other companies. now, that's news to these suppliers . they've news to these suppliers. they've been applying for six months. they've been asking for the agency to get back to them , ask agency to get back to them, ask them for the standards of testing and. they've heard nothing. so this is the first time, i think, that the agency

has announced on this particular pricing system, on this application , that they're application, that they're pausing them . now, what is the pausing them. now, what is the effect on the benefits as well as we hook the story? well, a lot of these competitive things that might be making things more expensive. example, expensive. we know, for example, that competitor , that lithuania, a competitor, the purchasing its most the eu for purchasing its most efficient bid , was $0.44 per efficient bid, was $0.44 per test. by contrast in britain the most efficient bid we've ever had is $0.95 a test. so 117% increase on the most efficient lithuanian bid is not being caused by poor procurement, while debate is still on. on that the debate is sample. charlie, thank you very much for bringing us that. yes exclusive there from charlie peters. thank you. so right. so we more on you. so, so right. so we more on that no doubt. we won't be lying. that won't go up . michael lying. that won't go up. michael gove moving on has been levelling dancefloor in levelling up the dancefloor in his aberdeen. not for levelling up the dancefloor in his first aberdeen. not for levelling up the dancefloor in his first timeiberdeen. not for levelling up the dancefloor in his first time he �*deen. not for levelling up the dancefloor in his first time he was]. not for levelling up the dancefloor in his first time he was videoedr levelling up the dancefloor in his first time he was videoed in the first time he was videoed in a 1980s themed club, throwing shakes with a dance partner. i believe we have a look at him in

action . action. fantasy got me going. i look . fantasy got me going. i look. hi. there you go . but he's not hi. there you go. but he's not the first mp to show us that moves he can. i just say it does appear a lot like whenever michael gove to update. he has an absolute cracker of it's odd because there was a time before it wasn't so long ago i've always it little cut in always on it does little cut in shapes as well yes he's not shapes as well but yes he's not the first mp to show us that moves. thought it's all okay moves. i thought it's all okay about is dancing, you moves. i thought it's all okay about is dancing , you know, about mp is dancing, you know, being in the public eye. the former conservative minister as strictly come dancing superstar star is ann widdecombe . thank star is ann widdecombe. thank you very much. well, look what would what would len goodman , would what would len goodman, whoever is on the panel of strictly come dancing these days have michael go for his moves. do you think ? oh, i think he do you think? oh, i think he probably have got about three. i

certainly have got more than i ever did. but i used to get one. so i think michael would probably have got about three. yeah yeah. okay. now for a bad context here before i get is a comment a bit more, we can have a little a little look at card. you said you were robbed because you were in favour. your performances on strictly come dancing. i think got a little clip way . clip way. oh he was such a good sport. well but you know i think there is something good more politicians should do normal people things going out on a dancer on a night out or something like that. well, you said you didn't want to do strictly come dancing while you're a serving mp. that's for that's us not anti but i don't see reason why an mp shouldn't just go out on a friday or saturday night and dance like the rest of the population does. the problem is if you're mp and

particularly if you're a high mp and you do that , you can and you do that, you can absolutely guarantee that it's going to be on everybody. so social media the next day so be well i would you ever entertain the idea of a of even maybe you know be dance partner i want anything with all respect patrick i'm sure that if there was anybody that i would like dance with more it would only be anton du it wouldn't be anybody . but nevertheless , i think . but nevertheless, i think i might call popping days behind . might call popping days behind. i've to go over believe that i've to go over believe that i've just been turned down by whittaker but thank you very much and you take your always such a good sport and i'm sorry this short and sweet, but i've really enjoyed every of it. you take care. i'm in when it comes that regulator on giving strictly come down so former conservative mp as well you've been patrick christys been with me patrick christys on gb with the line gb news although with the line

up bit and how many for up a little bit and how many for jonesy filling for in jonesy now she's filling for in gbc tomorrow at three. good afternoon. i'm alex deakin and this your latest weather update from the met office but write right around tomorrow haven't seen of that so far this seen much of that so far this month some spots will brighten up i think one will notice a cold feel the moment very cold feel at the moment very mild these weather mild between these two weather fronts. comes a cold fronts. but here comes a cold fronts. but here comes a cold front and tomorrow front overnight and tomorrow pushes across the country and introduces chillier weather. it's not going to especially cold, as i say, you will cold, but as i say, you will nofice cold, but as i say, you will notice the difference. it's also going to bring some rain this evening into western and northern that cold northern ireland. that cold front will then spread some rain . parts england and . western parts of england and course wales during the early a few showers possible across east, particularly the southeast. but many eastern parts of england will stay dry. it'll be a mild one for most as well, but that cold front clears late the night we could get down to two or three in the northwest . cold weather is moving in . that cold weather is moving in and certainly a chillier feel tomorrow . of great start, tomorrow. bit of a great start, certainly for most of england and wales, the rain going to be

kind patchy places, but kind of patchy in places, but it's kind of patchy in places, but ifs unger kind of patchy in places, but it's linger on and off it's going to linger on and off across eastern england well into the a few showers the afternoon, a few showers will come into north wales, the midlands and northern scotland where in the where there will be snow in the hills. but we should see some brightest guys. southern scotland, ireland, scotland, northern ireland, northern england through the afternoon. we've been into the temperatures we've been into the teens days ten at best teens over days ten at best tomorrow most places seven are right about average the time of yeah right about average the time of year. but as i said it feel colder than it has done now. the rain doesn't really clear east anglia and the south—east. it pretty here even into pretty damp here even into thursday morning. but where we do clear skies with the colder in place, we are going to see much more of a on thursday morning certainly in the countryside over northern england scotland and northern ireland. no frost in the southeast, but it fairly southeast, but it will fairly dull damp, suspect. again dull and damp, i suspect. again for thursday morning, for much of thursday morning, perhaps through the day . perhaps drier through the day. rain coming to the north rain coming in to the north dunng rain coming in to the north during thursday. but in between large chunks of the country looking on thursday, dry and bright , looking on thursday, dry and bright, sunny looking on thursday, dry and bright , sunny spells looking on thursday, dry and bright, sunny spells again ,

bright, sunny spells again, there'll be a frosty start, but temperatures will be about come the afternoon .

true. now there are a few things that have been troubling. troubling me a little bit today. so i'm going to get them off my chest, see what you think. the treatment of kate forbes. kate is , of course, one of the is, of course, one of the candidates running for the snp leadership. she is a christian, an evangelical one at that. so it should come as no surprise that she believes in the teachings of the church to which she belongs, including that marriage is between a man and a woman , that her personal woman, that her personal preference is not to have children out of wedlock and that she
