. but cloudy weather prevented second chance. impressive this is gb news more for me shortly. now though, it's back to . now though, it's back to. loads to go out. so ladies and gentlemen, let's get stuck in to the big story at the top and that rishi sunak has been in belfast today to stormont's biggest political parties. now he's trying to secure support for the eu over for deal with the eu over post—brexit trading arrangements in northern. we all know about the there, but do p leaders there. jeffrey donaldson has said proposals go some way to addressing concerns that this boycott but some key issues still remain so going to delve into whether or not rishi sunak will get the dup onside whether it matters he just going to steamroll straight through them. but big questions but some of the big questions for on frankly, which like for me on frankly, which is like what's done to boris

what's it done to boris johnson's we johnson's legacy, know that we have boris johnson fans have a lot of boris johnson fans who watch or listen to this show. how do you about the fact that it looks though rishi that it looks as though rishi sunak have done something that it looks as though rishi s|bitk have done something that it looks as though rishi s|bit popular,�*|ave done something that it looks as though rishi s|bit popular, doneione something that it looks as though rishi s|bit popular, done the�* something a bit popular, done the unthinkable, than does unthinkable, than where does that boris your book that leave boris in your book mean? sinn fein's mean? although sinn fein's reaction a more reaction has been a lot more optimistic this deal, let's optimistic to this deal, let's go to belfast. we can go over now to belfast. we can speak news, his political speak to gb news, his political darren mccaffrey. darren, thank you very much. i mean, really , you very much. i mean, really, sunak appears to be doing a bit of a bit of a merry jig, doesn't he? yeah been on a sales tour, if you like , to a large degree. if you like, to a large degree. patrick. who's what wins it this time yesterday in parliament last night, now in belfast today. looking how it's today. and looking how it's going so far looking at the front of the newspapers today that reaction from mps, even with his own party last night, the sdlp it seems to go pretty well. it was the same in here today when was talking to today when he was talking to business leaders the business leaders who on the whole really whole seems to really, really have actually welcomed this deal . so all in all, i think he's a pretty happy chap when . it pretty happy chap when. it comes. he said he was all over

the moon. this morning, patrick. in reaction to his deal he got with the eu. however, and there is a big in this the dup are not necessarily completely on board yet. we heard from some of them yesterday saying it didn't cut the mustard this then today the mustard this and then today patrick, we heard from sir jeffrey donaldson saying yes, if you can progress is being made. he's the of the party box he's the leader of the party box but are to look into but they are going to look into this. going to the this. they're going to take the time. the lawyers time. they've got the lawyers involved. going through involved. they're going through it line by line by line, and that they're not going to be rushed back rushed into a decision to back its. indeed and he appears its. yes indeed and he appears to be that he might just steamroll over dup anyway. rishi sunak has actually been mocked. we're going to have a big debate on after you, darren. on this. after you, darren. going talking about going to be talking about whether not this is rishi whether or not this is rishi sunak's masterpiece or otherwise. mocked otherwise. and he was mocked little bit calling northern little bit for calling northern ireland the world's most exciting economic zone, which many people are saying is basically the zone that that was before brexit, which for brexiteer to say is probably a bit of a freudian slip . yeah,

bit of a freudian slip. yeah, there's been a lot of discussions. we've this actually from several ministers in last couple of days but you right twice today from the prime minister on the radio this morning then speech morning and then in a speech here in belfast at this afternoon saying essentially that got the best that northern got the best of both it's access, both worlds. it's got access, unfettered okay unfettered access. he would okay although might disagree although some might disagree to gb britain's single gb to great britain's single market but also access to the eu's single market it must be said it's one of the reasons that even with old protocol, some businesses were favour of this kind of special arrangement for northern ireland. however there were those that would point out going , well, obviously point out going, well, obviously the uk had access to the single market when we were inside the eu . so why is a brexiteer eu. so why is a brexiteer suggesting that access to the eu single market is somehow better when we've to leave now, don't you think were asked about this? they've made it clear that people did vote to at the single market entry 16. that was the whole brexit. but yes, whole point of brexit. but yes, it whole point of brexit. but yes, h been whole point of brexit. but yes, it been a contentious issue it has been a contentious issue here where many ways northern here where in many ways northern ireland's of this

ireland's irrespective of this and irrespective of what unionist think going forward, northern ireland will still be a different place a kind of different place a kind of different set of a different economic circumstance from the rest uk because it does rest of the uk because it does show that land border with the eu . one of the other big points eu. one of the other big points on this and this is absolutely from a brexit backing standpoint in a sovereignty standpoint, as well, which is northern ireland going be in charge of its own laws or is it going be at the mercy of a foreign court, as it were ? so this all kind of comes were? so this all kind of comes down to the stormont with theresa may's backstop. when we had the kind of customs border in the irish. this is now the stormont break, apparently , stormont break, apparently, which effectively stormont or to 30 and allies the chance to kind of think to argue that we do not want this eu legislation in ireland with westminster riding in behind it now jeffrey donaldson today suggests that he thinks that break could work. there's still some questions about work but the

about how it will work but the problem of course is at the moment, patrick, there is no stormont, there is no irish assembly. and that's why the dup are saying they're not going to be railroaded into this because there is an expectation of hope, a almost the reason that this discussion and this agreement is taking to try and get taking place now to try and get the dup back stormont's the dup back into stormont's ahead , the 25th anniversary of ahead, the 25th anniversary of the good friday agreement in april and. then you add to that these local here and may deep concern that if they sign up to this deal too quickly they could get outflanked by even get outflanked by those even harder line brexiteers here harder hard line brexiteers here in northern ireland. so it's a complex picture and it's a complex picture and it's a complex picture and it's a complex picture because of the politics here as well. and believe me, the dup will not be pushed in this. this is the party, the good party, of course that the good friday agreement. exactly in the first place. they're very used to or mp used to to saying no or as mp used to say, . fantastic. look, say, never. fantastic. look, darren, thank you very much. great stuff. our political editor on the scene in northern ireland. now i want to ask you just a bit about this, which is

do actually think the rishi sunakis do actually think the rishi sunak is doing have particularly good job, maybe betterjob good job, maybe a betterjob than you thought or. no, it's a mixed bag in the inbox at the moment. of you, moment. quite a few of you, including this one from kevin, who says deal was always the who says no deal was always the best should have been best deal and should have been the point. of the starting point. a couple of people rishi of people accusing rishi sunak of riding boris johnson's riding in on boris johnson's coattails finishing off coattails and finishing off something that boris johnson started. but another here has said name on this. so said no name on this. so basically said that boris now being the long grass being kicked into the long grass , although were boris found , although they were boris found originally that originally they can see that he's maybe got a nose but he's now maybe got a nose but just before go , my next guest just before i go, my next guest on we're to have on this, we're going to have debate on whether or not this is really masterpiece or otherwise if has out the old if rishi sunak has out the old northern ireland protocol, which i thought something frankly, i hope does. so the idea of to keep talking about it, if he also gets to grips a bit with the small boats and now just to give of context on that, give a bit of context on that, we are reports anyway that people are going to start coming we are reports anyway that peop differenting to start coming we are reports anyway that peop different anglestart coming we are reports anyway that peop different angles on: coming from different angles on the french which implies french coastline, which implies that usual source outflow that not usual source outflow from and dunkirk is being

from calais and dunkirk is being blocked. so it implies that something is working that we'll have to wait and sceptical have to wait and i'm sceptical as rest of you about whether as the rest of you about whether or not we'll get to where or not we'll ever get to where it so the small boats crisis now the economy we're hearing as well hunt got well that jeremy hunt has got extra billion quid play extra 56 billion quid to play with isn't particularly with which isn't particularly bad it? he sorts out bad news, is it? if he sorts out the economy , the economy sort the economy, the economy sort itself one way or the other. itself out one way or the other. that's thing. waiting that's a good thing. waiting lists the nhs, they come lists in the nhs, they can come down. they predicted to come down. they are predicted to come anyway. he has also whether or not he intended to it, it's not he intended to do it, it's happened watch. he's happened under his watch. he's seen sturgeon. he doesn't seen of sturgeon. he doesn't seem sunak the minute seem rishi sunak at the minute on of scottish on the course of scottish independence. think, fair to independence. i think, fair to say, back say, have been pushed back massively. so if play the massively. so if you play the tape forward on this and we do it a relatively optimistic it with a relatively optimistic outlook it a year outlook and, we give it a year of this. and actually of news like this. and actually it's rishi, your man. and i want to know what have to say to know what you have to say about gb views at gb news about that gb views at gb news dot uk. today right now am dot uk. but today right now i am asking is new deal rishi asking is this new deal rishi sunak's masterpiece or have we still not got brexit? does discuss this. i'm joined by conservative and former special

adviser claire pearsall and the deputy leader of . ukip adviser claire pearsall and the deputy leader of. ukip is rebecca both of thank you rebecca james, both of thank you very, very much. rebecca start with you. i normally go ladies first, no point and first, but there's no point and now that. but i will now is that. but rebecca i will start with you. do you think that this is a deal for rishi sunak are you still angry sunak or are you still angry about am still about it. about it? i am still about it. so this is a pr fluff to a from rishi sunak as ever. so we have gone through it and obviously this being glossed up, but actually we've actually got into the detail . it it actually we've actually got into the detail. it it is actually we've actually got into the detail . it it is rotten to the detail. it it is rotten to the detail. it it is rotten to the core . so let me just pick up the core. so let me just pick up a few points for you. first of all, he says that he cares about. well, me, when you about. well, for me, when you are saying that the dup does matter. and regardless , whatever matter. and regardless, whatever they said, this is probably going to go ahead. that is absolutely ludicrous . tonight of absolutely ludicrous. tonight of all you be all day. you should be absolutely with them absolutely working with them rather i'm rather than saying, well, i'm going i want anyway. it going do what i want anyway. it says that it's going to make trading easy. no, it's not actually going to fix the problem, because we are still going have border between going to have a border between northern great

northern ireland and great britain, any kind of britain, whereas any kind of border should between the border should be between the repubuc border should be between the republic ireland and republic of ireland and great britain sovereignty. he likes britain. sovereignty. he likes to say that this is restoring ireland and all the rest of it, but there's no sovereignty because are still going to have a say over laws. essentially this windsor for us is the it is its same still that he is returning small elements that should never have been away in the entire in the first place. and the stormont absolutely useless because of all the legislation that there is to actually make that happen . all actually make that happen. all right. some strong views that you coming up. right. some strong views that you coming up . and i think this you coming up. and i think this is cause for optimism , if i'm is cause for optimism, if i'm honest. 1700 pages of laws are going to be scrapped , which going to be scrapped, which means that only 3, which will still to northern ireland, which is a huge move forward. we haven't seen this . so i think haven't seen this. so i think that it can be hailed as a success. rishi sunak seems to have made the eu take more than

we ever thought it possible have, but i think he's pulled off quite a stunt and. it's always going to be difficult with the dup. we need to leave them to have time to read the agreement. but i think from the majority of people and certainly from parliamentarians in westminster that i've spoken to , they are cautiously optimistic that this is going to work and it could. the one thing that defines what she's that's premiership. rebecca were you a little bit uncomfortable by what a loving it seemed like yesterday . i always , in yesterday. i was always, in a way slightly reassured , although way slightly reassured, although we were yet to see much of the results of it but from the clear level of disdain that there appeared to be between boris johnson and a lot people in johnson and a lot of people in the like to bed the parliament like to bed because thought, okay we're because i thought, okay we're very much different sides as. very much on different sides as. it whereas the rishi it were, whereas the rishi sunak were, a bit concerned were, you were a bit concerned by he appeared to be with by how he appeared to be with ursula leyen or no? yeah ursula von der leyen or no? yeah absolutely. and said this i absolutely. and i said this i think it was about a week ago that i saw on this programme and i said that this is rishi's way

of trying to snuggle to them. and in a way he's just trying to laugh. still to work with laugh. he's still to work with them actually i country them when actually i country voted the eu the voted to leave the eu the entirety. don't need to be entirety. we don't need to be going begging to do going back begging them to do this them to do that this and begging them to do that and laws here and and keeping laws here and letting say , a say. letting them have a say, a say. you know, at the end of the day with this still not right the eu will still have the right to take action if the law is rejected. on earth is that rejected. why on earth is that acceptable ? it's not not acceptable? it's not that's not what we up for. it's not what we signed up for. it's not what we signed up for. it's not what anybody voted for. we voted to leave. i know the pied piper is on his way with his band of merry it's not. please merry men. it's not. please leave. claire, is there an leave. okay claire, is there an argument of all of argument to say that of all of the who rishi sunak the people who rishi sunak should be listening most should be listening to most about actually the about this? is actually the dupe. appears be the dupe. and that appears be the people listening to people he is not listening to about yeah no, no, i do about this. yeah no, no, i do think you're right on that. the dup's are extremely important in all of this, and it remains to be seen they're going to take from it. they want to go think about it as you naturally. but i would that something the would hope that something the stormont to that

stormont break is going to that in williams type them to in sort of williams type them to come back to get the assembly and running and to give the people northern the people northern ireland the assembly , the assembly that they assembly, the assembly that they need. it has not been active since february of 2022, which for a nation appalling it doesn't say much for devolution. so i'm hoping that this brings them back in the stormont . i them back in the stormont. i think actually a very very think it's actually a very very good mechanism for scrapping those eu decision that they see are not working for the people of northern ireland. i think that's a really good thing to have in there, but it does need. do you pay come back home and assembly and get back to work . assembly and get back to work. yeah. okay now rebecca as well, i just want to ask , i suppose i just want to ask, i suppose what you make of or not rishi sunak has actually opened the inadvertently to us rejoining the eu as a whole. he's basically said that northern ireland now with it being essentially in the single market and of course having access to both of those markets that it now is basically the best economic the world which economic zone in the world which has led to a of remainers

saying, well, want to us again i mean should he have said that and one absolute joke you made himself look complete and utter fool you actually you like you saying neither is the best place to invest in the whole entire world. well, why were people not doing that before brexit? because there's no difference in what and say. it was ridiculous. it was a literal two minute pr stunt. but yes , course, you stunt. but yes, course, you know, i've said it all the time. all she wants to do is get back there because he never really that never truly believed in brexit they never wanted it to happen. to so do it it and everybody go away and try to just it doesn't make the by the pubuc just it doesn't make the by the public people and they public and people and they absolutely don't in the slightest . so why earth why slightest. so why on earth why are you railroading the dup ? are you railroading the dup? this plan is what i want know is that why would you not do it all and then do your little pr to i mean like make sure that everybody's actually happy . he's everybody's actually happy. he's not. doing massive, not. he's doing a massive, massive job or i massive railroading job or i think i'll just squeeze one more point to disagree, man. i could see you shaking your head, so

i'll give the final whatever to you think everyone is making you. i think everyone is making all of this. the all too much of this. the minister is out there on a pr. he is hardly going to turn to belfast and say it's a bit of a mediocre place. you're going to have the best of everything. you've got, make it sound brilliant , think it's good. and brilliant, think it's good. and i think the people are reading too into it . one sentence too much into it. one sentence out everything said over the out of everything said over the past 24 hours. it's i'll tell you what is a cracking way to start show ladies. thank you very, very much. so thoroughly enjoyed that. claire pearsall is a conservative councillor former enjoyed that. claire pearsall is a conseadvisercouncillor former enjoyed that. claire pearsall is a conse adviser and cillor former enjoyed that. claire pearsall is a conse adviser and deputy rmer special adviser and deputy leader , rebecca jane. leader of ukip, rebecca jane. i'm of them. must be i'm both of them. it must be said echoing exactly said as well, echoing exactly the catastrophic round that is currently in front of currently going on in front of me my inbox. gb views. gb me in my inbox. gb views. gb news dot uk . ted says wishes he news dot uk. ted says wishes he has done a very good job. he thinks that ukip are now a busted flush then literally right above it. here he goes. we've been sold out by rishi sue now we should have had no deal from two different people that we get. that's why the nation appears to split on this. but

going to return a little bit to rishi sunak because the prime minister has been addressing business county business leaders at county antrim ireland antrim in northern ireland agreeing deal. agreeing a new brexit deal. yesterday and i've just got a little to play for you of little clip to play for you of what people. well, i'm what he told people. well, i'm confident that the windsor framework announced framework that we announced yesterday issues yesterday to resolve the issues that people have with the protocol it restores balance to the belfast good friday and that's what was needed. it does three things. it makes sure that the flow of goods around our uk internal is really smooth internal market is really smooth with green makes sure with green line. it makes sure that northern place in the union is protected . that for people is protected. that for people living northern ireland, they living in northern ireland, they get all same benefits, the get all the same benefits, the same products as they would anywhere in uk. and anywhere else in the uk. and crucially, it safeguards sovereignty and sovereignty for the people and institutions of northern ireland. with stormont ireland. with a new stormont break, allowing rules break, allowing to stop rules that don't think are right that they don't think are right for them from coming in. so taken in the round, i think it's an positive step an incredibly positive step forward what want now is forward. and what i want now is forward. and what i want now is for people to take the time to study the because there's study the detail because there's a there. but i'm a lot in there. but i'm confident it does confident that it does provide a bafis confident that it does provide a basis parties to look at it for all of us to come together and

build towards a brighter future for stormont for northern ireland. stormont break. not veto for break. it's not veto for stormont. is a break. the stormont. it is a break. the veto would be the uk government decide that they want to stop the law . do you think that that the law. do you think that that can you can tell me the circumstances where you think that you would use the strong up mean for the role of ecj? well the stormont is an incredibly powerful cross—community safeguard that we've been able to negotiate the eu. and what it means is that the people and institutions of northern are in control of their destiny . and if control of their destiny. and if there's a significant eu law that comes along that , will have that comes along that, will have lasting and significant impact on the everyday lives of people here in northern ireland that the assembly will be allowed to pull the emergency brake and it's built on something called the petition of concern mechanism is the good friday agreement institution . the agreement institution. the support of 30 mlas from two parties. and once done so be crystal clear . the uk government crystal clear. the uk government then does have an unequipped co

veto. and what i've said that the uk government wants to sit down with the parties in northern ireland, the assembly, to codify how the uk government would use that veto, to make sure that everyone reassurance that will work properly . and that it will work properly. and that's i'd like to engage that's what i'd like to engage with parties and it's with with the parties and it's one of the key parts of this deal safeguard sovereignty for the institutions of the people. institutions of northern people northern ireland is what people were the windsor were asking for. and the windsor framework delivers. it and i think it's more anyone think it's more than anyone expected and hope that's why expected and i hope that's why people that is people can see that this is a really positive. step forward. okay, where she said okay, so that's where she said that we are always going to be returning that story. some of the angles this for me is the big angles on this for me is what does it mean for boris johnson's legacy? i mean, has he taken of a nose in all of taken a bit of a nose in all of this or you still but boris, this or do you still but boris, has he opened door as well for people shouting about people who are shouting about the should rejoin the fact that we should rejoin the fact that we should rejoin the union? he did the european union? he did rather clumsily the rather clumsily say that the northern situation made northern ireland situation made northern ireland situation made northern of the world's most exciting has led exciting economic, which has led people well, earth people to say, well, why earth did leave the single did we ever leave the single market first place? but

month . tv, online and dab radio. month. tv, online and dab radio. this is gb news now back to . this is gb news now back to. patrick okay. all right. welcome back, everybody. right now i've got loads coming your way, but just before do get stuck into the big drag queen debate is it time we did a bit more serious news this year and the latest, the of living and the cost of living crisis and more evidence if we needed the cost of living crisis and moretheidence if we needed the cost of living crisis and morethe cost e if we needed the cost of living crisis and morethe cost of if we needed the cost of living crisis and morethe cost of yourve needed the cost of living crisis and morethe cost of your weekly ed that the cost of your weekly shopis that the cost of your weekly shop is still going grocery price inflation has reached record 17.1. this means that record 17.1. so this means that it's added more than £800 to the average household annual bill. now are rising fast as now prices are rising fast as across staples such as milk, eggs, margarine as well analysts to said that the latest data, which is for the four weeks up to the 19th of february, was the highest level grocery inflation. it's had ever recorded. but there is some economic good news as well and i'm going to be talking about that very shortly

, is the fact that jeremy hunt apparently a £56 billion war chest. okay to go through the good , the part of the economic good, the part of the economic news and to see if this can focus on a bit more light at the end of this tunnel. i'm joined now by gb news is business and economics. halligan economics. it's liam halligan with money . people will with on the money. people will say . what do you want the good say. what do you want the good news. the bad news first. that's should we do the bad stuff and then veer way into jeremy hunt's massive package. so a corner phrase. so no surprise that food price inflation is high. everybody that shops knows it . everybody that shops knows it. so 17.1% increase in food prices dunng so 17.1% increase in food prices during the four weeks to february 19th compared to the same period in 2022. these aren't official numbers. they're survey numbers by private sector company can to a very reputable and that's much much higher than the basic rate of inflation the bafic the basic rate of inflation the basic rate inflation at the moment is now 10.1. it peaked 11.1. but as we all know, this

massive has been driven by fuel costs , energy prices, utility costs, energy prices, utility and food and utility bills and food are still 11 each. in prices, petrol prices are back down where they were before the war in ukraine. and of course, diesel prices still 20% higher. work that one hour icon on waiting for an explanation. if i was an energy minister be banging the phones to the petrol companies every day. why is companies day every day. why is diesel more expensive than diesel% more expensive than before the war in ukraine when oil prices roughly where they were before petrol prices were before and petrol prices are where they before? are roughly where they before? yeah indeed . and as somebody who yeah indeed. and as somebody who drives a diesel like i would quite likely to be getting on the phones left, right and centre okay. can we centre and right. okay. can we talk a bit about this 56 billion quit that apparently jeremy hunt has to with because i was wondering what could we spend it all you so kind of numbers all you so that kind of numbers really but these are the games are played by broadcast sources the political media are

politicians policy makers in the run up to an after so the budgets on march the 15th i'll be on march 17th because it's some patrick's day. yes so but they were be sober on march 15th. so particularly because this brexit stuff has been put to one side. let's if there's a rebellion, i don't think there will be. but that it's now are now in the riots of this march budget and what's happened is the office of budget responsibility , as some of us responsibility, as some of us said at the time, was over gloomy in forecasting the amount of borrowing the government would have to do right . so it's would have to do right. so it's not like suddenly the government's got more money. it's that we may borrow a bit it's that we may to borrow a bit less . right. okay, so let's just less. right. okay, so let's just get right . it's not that get get right. it's not that we've extra which we've got extra money, which might not to borrow so might not need to borrow so much. that's much. that's, that's worth saying, it's a lot saying, but it's quite a lot that we might need to borrow 56 billion less. yeah. this current fiscal year and the next fiscal yeah fiscal year and the next fiscal year. so what could you do with 50 billion? i mean, that's that's pretty long. 56, followed

by nine zeros, right? it's bigger than your salary. yes. yes, it's yeah it's pretty big. yeah. so you'll get that. so 56 billion, you could cut ten pay off the bases income budget, right ? you could you could pay right? you could you could pay you could pay 1.6 million extra nurses for a year. 56 billion is more than we spend on defence. that's right. 56 billion is roughly what we spend on schools across england, across . across england, across. absolutely. huge amount of money. so this is the kind of good news. yeah the jeremy hunt really doesn't hear because it puts him under enormous pressure because now the public sector unions are to be oh, unions are to be going, oh, you've got a lot more money, chancellor, you can give us more money. one, you giving the nurses more money, give nurses more money, one to give us and then we us more money. and then we say, no, it's not. got more no, no, it's not. i've got more money, starting to borrow. money, it's starting to borrow. so want be borrowing so and we want to be borrowing less. in fact, we don't want borrowing until we only be getting national debt load. getting the national debt load. yeah, so mad yeah, right. yeah. so mad economics. also

economics. yeah. is there also and what a fashionable and this is what a fashionable thing say, but know, if thing to say, but you know, if jeremy decided he was going jeremy hunt decided he was going to this in some way, shape to use this in some way, shape or form to go to nurse public sector workers, right. here you go. sector workers, right. here you 90- pay sector workers, right. here you go. pay rise. well, go. is a big pay rise. well, they probably still wouldn't vote it anyway. you'll vote for it anyway. well, you'll have that. vote for it anyway. well, you'll have that i vote for it anyway. well, you'll have that. i do think a have ask them that. i do think a lot lot of neutral lot of a lot of neutral observers think that is observers think that there is sort some politicisation going on. do some of the more militant unions , some militant branches unions, some militant branches of some of the mainstream unions, basically just want to mess up the tory government and get labour and well, mess up the tory government and get labour and well , wouldn't be get labour and well, wouldn't be the first time, obviously trade union industrial relations. it's deeply p but big p party political as well. and it's and it's always going to be you know is democracy is the worst possible system except for all the others . yes churchill once the others. yes churchill once said exactly that. i am just trying to out how long would take me to complete destroy my own life if i was on £56 billion a year thinking about it. but but we have to be clear, you're

not going to have any other people say that. a lot of people to make the government's life difficult. it's chest. difficult. so it's a war chest. it's war chest. but know the it's a war chest. but know the way we look at the public finances in this country as a media class are some exceptions, is either is there's always either black hole war chest. he's like hole or a war chest. he's like nothing. and he at all. this is nothing. and he at all. this is not extra money. it's the fact he may may these are still predictions. yeah. particularly for next year, even for the rest of this fiscal year that ends in april he may have to borrow less than we. right. so that does not mean he's no money. he's not going to go splashing . it going to go splashing. it doesn't mean that might mean that unions say you've got that the unions say you've got extra can afford to extra money you can afford to pay- extra money you can afford to pay. no, course. right, pay. no, of course. all right, liam, very much as liam, thank you very much as even liam, thank you very much as ever, halligan now ever, liam halligan now economist, business editor. oh, i that. right. okay, now i love that. right. okay, now let's see. we've been getting in touch your thoughts on this touch with your thoughts on this rishi we are rishi sunak deal. we are obviously with it today, obviously leading with it today, although i'm going variants although i'm going to variants the surely although i'm going to variants the hold surely although i'm going to variants the hold onto surely although i'm going to variants the hold onto your surely although i'm going to variants thehold onto your house. surely so hold onto your house. shoes from carlyle's. honest from carlyle's. let's be honest about our prime minister. he's only in the job a few only been in the job a few months and he's done good than

only been in the job a few morofs and he's done good than only been in the job a few morof thed he's done good than only been in the job a few morof the three done good than only been in the job a few morof the three prime good than only been in the job a few morof the three prime ministers any of the three prime ministers trying the irish problem trying to get the irish problem sorted. irish sorted. it's not just irish problem, it? look, if problem, though, is it? look, if they together for rishi, they comes together for rishi, which might frankly which he might do, then frankly it be sheeran at the next election. don't quote me that, but possibly be. let's but it possibly should be. let's say boats crisis does say the small boats crisis does not which do appreciate not stop, which i do appreciate is exactly did would is exactly what he did say would which think was remiss of him which i think was remiss of him but massively decreases and they're signs that it might they're all signs that it might there it might there are signs that it might because traffickers because human traffickers and the are the people setting off are having from different having to go from different routes, implies that the routes, which implies that the traditional have been blocked a bit. so let's just there's a massive, decrease massive, massive decrease the amount coming across amount of people coming across the channel. well a winner the channel. well a vote winner if economy his aim saying if the economy his aim saying now not going completely to now is not going completely to and predicted and can't as many predicted that's for nicola that's a win for him. nicola sturgeon's no. how sturgeon's gone. no, no, no. how much worse you seen? i got to do with that personally, but of course idea scottish course the idea of scottish independence appears have vanished little vanished for at least a little while. the northern ireland issue. one. and issue. yeah, that's one. and i think just waiting list is supposed come down supposed to just come down anyway. in about a year's anyway. so if in about a year's time sitting thinking, time we're all sitting thinking, well, sunak the well, actually rishi sunak the britain is a much brighter place. and it the day you

place. and it was the day you took then. yeah, i think took charge then. yeah, i think potentially be for in a potentially he will be for in a lot credit. one more quick lot of credit. one more quick one. stage says we need to be positive what has positive about what rishi has achieved starmer was achieved even starmer was impressed tell. so impressed and you could tell. so instead trying instead of people trying to bnng instead of people trying to bring government, we bring down the government, we need credit where credit need to give credit where credit is yeah, am noticing is due. yeah, i am noticing a shift. germany, actually, i must say i think there are a lot of people who used to email and who just and because people who used to email and who juswasn't and because people who used to email and who juswasn't boris and because people who used to email and who juswasn't boris johnson, because people who used to email and who juswasn't boris johnson, iecause people who used to email and who juswasn't boris johnson, i thinke he wasn't boris johnson, i think the that i got all of the main gist that i got all of that in the fact that people thought he might stop boris johnson in back. but then if johnson in the back. but then if you this now, it a cause you look this now, is it a cause for optimism? is time for for optimism? is it a time for optimism as opposed to pessimism? bit of all pessimism? i'm a bit sick of all the doom and gloom, to be honest with should we just let with you. so should we just let ourselves happy. the up might ourselves be happy. the up might disagree, of after the disagree, of course. after the break, will finally talk break, we will finally talk about drag queens in schools and sex year olds. sex education for 11 year olds. oh, concerned oh, you were concerned parent, you grandparent. you were concerned grandparent. oh, someone who is oh, you may be someone who is actually one of these schools actually in one of these schools and is sick, tired of having this forced you. this stuff forced upon you. i just don't understand how. in the of all the the grand scheme of all of the things world that

things in the world that children be taught about why children can be taught about why the taxpayer having pay the taxpayer is having pay for drag what of drag queens and what out of that. so i just don't understand. vaiews@gbnews.uk see you in couple of minutes .

okay. welcome back. i'm just got an update for you now because more than 200 police officers are involved . a huge search is are involved. a huge search is underway for a two month old baby missing. aristocrat's constance martin and her boyfriend, marc were arrested in brighton. there was a big search going on for them, wasn't there? sussex have appealed to the pubuc sussex have appealed to the public search outbuildings on their own to vigilant when walking on open between brighton and newhaven. the couple were finally arrested at around 930 last night in brighton after a tip off from a member of the public. but crucially the baby was not with them and that's

what the search is all about. now we can go live now brighton and join our homeland security edhon and join our homeland security editor, mark white. mark, what and join our homeland security edit you'iark white. mark, what and join our homeland security edit you tell white. mark, what and join our homeland security edityou tell uinte. mark, what and join our homeland security edit you tell us please rk, what and join our homeland security edityou tell us please ?, what and join our homeland security edityou tell us please ? well,: can you tell us please? well, patrick, the couple have been spotted in a store not too far from here about 930, as you say, last member of the public spot heard them recognised them from the various witness appeals that there have been over the last couple of months. and called 999. now the police tell us is that within 6 minutes of that call they here they met with the couple in golf drive, which is just effectively where standing here just took the bottom of some, they were heading up towards those allotments. there was no sign, as you mentioned, in the introduction there of , in the introduction there of, this infant with them and they arrested on suspicion of child neglect have been in custody ever since . police have been ever since. police have been trying to get to the bottom of the child is clearly the couple

in that have not been cooperating talking with the police in that they have not provided the information to those officers where child is and so is what you're seeing now and so is what you're seeing now a very detailed search now told that 200 plus officers are and not many officers from the metropolitan police have come down from london. they have primacy over this investigation and officers from this local force area, sussex and surrey police as well share some of their crime operations with surrey police . so they are surrey police. so they are involved in the search activities that we've seen here as well. the search activities. patrick really on area, the allotments that we've groups of officers, a big line of officers going up methodically searching the allotments looking greenhouses under tarpaulin and

just it a good once over up and then down again it's i think in then down again it's i think in the hours and days ahead that there may be a more systematic forensic search of those allotments have also been searching wooded area around here. there's a nature and golf course nearby and of course lots of open land down towards where the couple had spotted on a number of occasions in recent weeks . so really frustrating for weeks. so really frustrating for the police because they see they are quite understandably in a race time they say they are still hopeful of finding that maybe but the more time that passes the much more perilous it becomes for the safety of that infant mark steyn he very very much not want. there are homes added to his life in brighton

and we will bring you the very latest on that incredibly concerning case. of course , hunt concerning case. of course, hunt for that baby continues. right. well, we're moving away from that now. and something quite radically different, obviously. so now the ongoing controversy around drug queens visiting schools. and it's emerged that in one incident, a drug queen told a group of 11 year olds that there was 73 genders. and it's reported when a pupil reported that there were only two genders, the drug queen said, you've upset me. and the child had to leave the class there is a catalogue of incidents like this taking place. it very much become place. it has very much become thing that drug queens go thing now that drug queens go into schools and then on of it you have some kind of sexual education element to it on top of so it's not just of that. so it's not just a performance, there's also some kind of educational, quote unquote as all as well, unquote benefit as all as well, which bit bizarre. but which i find a bit bizarre. but parents have claimed on parents have claimed that on other occasions, the other occasions, pupils at the queen high school queen elizabeth ii high school on the isle of man, have been taught and sex taught about acts and sex operations , sex education operations, sex education classes at the school have since

been suspended and it's well, it's hard to imagine . why isn't it's hard to imagine. why isn't it? with me now , lucy marsh from it? with me now, lucy marsh from the family education trust. lucy so before we talk about the what the catalogue of other issues that there are with this why all drug queens being allowed in schools they not be. no there definitely shouldn't be. we strongly believe is inappropriate. drag queens are highly sexually used. adult entertainment and we believe there should be no any schools. okay. but not. so, you know, is it just a performance? i mean, i'm trying to think what i had in school, i think we had a punch. and judy , at one point, punch. and judy, at one point, we probably had a school's rendition of something like my fair lady, which is ironic given the context that we're talking about now, is why so bad about a man drag rocking up at a school ? is what they're talking about and what they stand for. drag queens aren't pantomime dames.

drag queens perform in general in bars and nightclub pubs, and that they're adult talking about highly sexual acts of the time. adult acts and adult content, which isn't suitable for children . i mean when you think children. i mean when you think of some of the names that should just give you an indication of what kind what kind of act that they are. yes the clue is usually in the name. but one thing that i don't understand at all is the amount of risk assessments i have to take place at schools and the amount locally going around . how locally that's going around. how on earth can we have a situation where presumably teachers sit around together and they go , oh, around together and they go, oh, we know what we're going to do today. we're going bring man today. we're going to bring man in, in to teach our 11 year in, drag in to teach our 11 year old pupils about sex acts. how does this even happen . it just does this even happen. it just seems to be the inclusivity comes at the cost safeguarding at the moment at the moment it's there is the in saying i guess

there is the in saying i guess the thing to do that they see that anybody that gets involved with drag queens i mean obviously they even at the gallery over the half term they were hosting adhd from drag queen story. it seems to be that some people think that it's inclusive and progressive to host drag queens that it's gives them some kind of enhanced status on being how inclusive they are, which we don't agree with at all. we think it's inappropriate for children . do inappropriate for children. do you think that kids are confused ? so by that i mean it just appears that we've proposed some stories previously about parents saying that they weren't allowed to adopt, that kids out of pride and things like that . and the and things like that. and the kids were essentially to go to them. and then you've not just them. and then you've not just the idea a highly sexualised performance being shown to children , by the way. lucy, children, by the way. lucy, i will ask you. do you actually question why a fully grown man might want to dress up as a

woman and go into a school and perform? well quite. i mean, drag queens have got their niche generally nightclubs and another aduu generally nightclubs and another adult adult venues. so i'd understand the need for why any any man would want to dress up like that and why the need to be in contact with children . i in contact with children. i mean, people are asking that question, why do these men want be in contact with children? that's the question that doesn't seem to be asked. and even a bafic seem to be asked. and even a basic test would basic safeguarding test would would surely ask that question of why these people want to be in contact with children. it just doesn't seem to be happening in schools. yeah. i mean, i can remember sex education at my school and was a bit of a joke. i mean, i think we were taught about the birds and the bees by. a science teacher who was wearing socks and to be fair i and sandals. and to be fair if i had to hazard a guess, i would expect maybe didn't a huge expect maybe didn't know a huge amount anyway. so yeah. amount about it anyway. so yeah. so but for me, i don't your so but for me, i don't want your views ladies and views on this. ladies and gentlemen want your views on this. gb views and gb news .uk

should. they be in schools in the got loads the first place. i've got loads of and this not a good of emails and this is not a good start, it's more about sex start, but it's more about sex education isn't it? education in general, isn't it? should be taught the should they just be taught the bare do you think a bare minimum? do you think a babyis bare minimum? do you think a baby is up to the job parents to do of it from that? do the rest of it from that? because there been massive, massive from other massive concerns from other parents, about the parents, other schools about the graphic children as graphic in which children as young and have been young as ten and 11 have been taught their teachers. taught from from their teachers. and would also hazard a guess and i would also hazard a guess so maybe you don't particularly want your know that want your teach to know that individual, you? mean, individual, do you? i mean, would the geography would sandra from the geography be your child about be teaching your child about whether not they've been born whether or not they've been born into the wrong body etc. etc? into the wrong body or etc. etc? look, getting in touch. look, let's be getting in touch. and she's been on, but andy says one and these schools bring one day and these schools bring their grandparents. they have an age of six, mary. and so you go, yeah, suspect would be yeah, i suspect that would be the way it could get more the only way it could get more local ones. i believe we've got lucy now. lucy, thank you lucy back now. lucy, thank you very sorry about we. very much. yeah, sorry about we. we've resurrect we've we've wanted to resurrect you got. but, but you lucy that we got. but, but the conversation i want to have is about sex education. is about just sex education. general a really said, general a bit really said, look, i think, most people

i think, i think most people would rightly have serious reservations or not we reservations whether or not we should queen in, should bring a drag queen in, teach kids the birds and teach kids about the birds and the but there's complaints the bees. but there's complaints from the from parents about just the general way in which is general way in which sex ed is taught. it's just about reproduction anymore. i mean, do have reports in front of me have reports here in front of me about being amazed at about parents being amazed at the that year old is the fact that or 11 year old is being taught how perform very being taught how to perform very specific sexual acts and then often with that. yeah we we're getting contacted by parents probably on a weekly who are really concerned inappropriate age, inappropriate sex education in schools and things. i mean evenin in schools and things. i mean even in primary schools that are being taught about trans ideology, explicit sex acts, being taught to how how to a really young age. i mean, i had a parent recently contacted me who was concerned that her child , who was six at the time, would come home from saying that she thought that she might actually really be a boy because she she didn't like wearing dresses. really be a boy because she she

didn't like wearing dresses . and didn't like wearing dresses. and it came to light that . the it came to light that. the school had been using jigsaw as as as a as a as a result, which promotes the transgender pilot , promotes the transgender pilot, said roberta cowell. and i and the parents was like, well, why my six year old need to know about this? they surely they only need to be knowing where where babies come from. they don't need to be taught that they could be in the they perhaps could be in the wrong body. transgender wrong body. so it's transgender ideology. the explicit ideology. and then the explicit acts was being taught about acts that was being taught about which exposing children which is it's exposing children to the risk of sexual abuse, if they're being taught about stuff that they're too young to . i that they're too young to. i think the yeah, look, i agree with you, lucy, thank you very much. lucy marsh staff from the family education trust. i mean, did anybody else find it ludicrous? of that kids ludicrous? of course that kids aren't to play conkers aren't allowed to play conkers in school playground, but in the school playground, but someone walk someone with conkers can walk into , perform a dance into a school, perform a dance into a school, perform a dance in the kids. anyway, in front of the kids. anyway, patrick gb news. after patrick christys gb news. after the we will more on the the break, we will more on the search a search for that baby after a couple were arrested . brighton couple were arrested. brighton last night for a breaking news

okay. big owl heading away. ladies and gentlemen, let's get cracking it, shall we? and we'll start with our top stories. part of the best place to start really has been in belfast, trying to drum up support for his and hope that the his big deal and hope that the northern people are happy northern irish people are happy about the deal is about the success of the deal is likely depend on it likely to depend on whether it persuades the you p to end likely to depend on whether it persuades the you pto end its persuades the d you p to end its boycott of powersharing. rishi sunak seemed confident after saying his deal was a huge step forward for the people of northern. he is, of course, also threatening to essentially just plough on with anyway despite what may or may not what the dup may or may not think, crossed over down think, that's crossed over down to spades. is no to belfast spades. gb news is no doubt in, reports dougie beattie. dougie you very, very much. rishi sunak a risk of much. it's rishi sunak a risk of ignore the deal up to his peril peril . well, he is going ignore peril. well, he is going ignore them. that's exactly what he's going to try to do. and he's

actually tried to breach some back in the government he's trying to bites of back end with headunes trying to bites of back end with headlines rather than having a look the detail. and one look at the detail. and one thing that he know as thing that he should know as prime any prime minister any time any prime minister any time any prime minister any time any prime minister has ever tried paint unionism of any colour and to some sort of deal that it does not want, never works out very well either the unionists or for the prime minister must be said. i'm actually incumbent 99. why here? well this is the very place that the dup little village is like this. very place that the dup little village is like this . the village is like this. the heartlands, the dup voters that will have to buy this deal, heartlands, the dup voters that will have to buy this deal , the will have to buy this deal, the dup look at it and the minutiae of it and now know why he didn't give . the g on the dup the give. the g on the dup the detail of this deal the legal text of it before he started that's quite it's quite a sad thing actually because the deal could actually maybe work and not seeing any horses both in anywhere . but i think if you're anywhere. but i think if you're going to deal with man, you need to deal with them truthfully and straight from very straight up from the very beginning they've beginning, because they've already such a bad protocol

already seen such a bad protocol deal before . and how do we know deal before. and how do we know what's a bad protocol deal? because yesterday, rishi sunak stood house of commons stood in the house of commons and told us about boris johnson's protocol deal that was sold to the people of northern ireland as deal and rishi ireland as a deal and rishi sunak started off every yesterday, sounded as if he was reporting a gb news on bad the protocol actually . so why was protocol actually. so why was the media the last year saying hey hey the last protocol deal was and boris saying how great it was when obviously it was a bad deal . so this it was when obviously it was a bad deal. so this deal, the people starting to really, really peck it, go through it with a fine comb. there is things that are wrong with it. article six of the act to the union are still suspended. this was a dupe red line. there is the handbrake system that they talk about. well, it it is a handbrake but it's only handbrake but it's only handbrake they can pull it stormont and then go to westminster and then westminster have to go to the eu and if you

look at the, at the absolute detail of this and keep reading through it, it basically says that you can't stop legislation and put another eu territory at and put another eu territory at an unfair advantage . so an unfair advantage. so therefore it is still then leaning towards economic union with the of ireland because northern ireland can't pull a deal here. i mean i spent last week our two weeks going holland looking at how the media and the case that eu wanted thousand farms shut down their starting to look at the same thing of cattle in the republic of ireland . so if northern ireland ireland. so if northern ireland said, well , ireland. so if northern ireland said, well, we're going to said, well, we're not going to do because it would affect do that because it would affect our dairy products put the price of food well, you know of food up? well, you know what we're to we're not we're going to do? we're not going it. we'll pull the going to do it. we'll pull the handbrake. well, would be handbrake. well, that would be taken westminster if they taken to westminster if they challenge to well challenge the eu to say well sorry to do it because sorry you have to do it because it put ireland at it would put northern ireland at an advantage. so all an unfair advantage. so all these things are starting to get looked and as it starts to out, ricci is running right selling the very public way. the deal in a very public way. we'll await how that we'll await to see how that works patrick yeah, no,

works out. patrick yeah, no, indeed. works out. patrick yeah, no, indeed . very well articulated. indeed. very well articulated. diggy ever thank you very diggy as ever thank you very much. putting all into context neatly beattie. know on neatly dougie beattie. i know on reporter emphasising that reporter just emphasising that thatis reporter just emphasising that that is a big factor in this deal that is a big factor in this deal, which is whether or not northern ireland and people of northern ireland and people of northern ireland, the politicians to politicians all going to have basically legal and basically legal autonomy and despite that they tried despite the fact that they tried to in glitter it appears to roll it in glitter it appears that will not and will that no they will not and will to stop the dup getting behind it, one would suspect so. rishi sunak's pretty much. well, i'll just anyway in all of just ignore you anyway in all of this , all of should it this, all of this, should it actually be the flip side of what's going on, should it actually be that the one group of people that sunak is of people that rishi sunak is really to should be of people that rishi sunak is realdup to should be of people that rishi sunak is realdup on to should be of people that rishi sunak is realdup on the to should be of people that rishi sunak is realdup on the hilliould be of people that rishi sunak is realdup on the hill hardline is the dup on the hill hardline is maybe more ideological people when it comes to brexit. should you be listening to them as opposed to everyone else. although down the line, is anyone surprised that anyone in power really because power would it really because it's group people it's not a group of people who've let from start who've been let down from start to finish. some people would say, but let's over now. so one of the controversial of the more controversial moments yesterday. so we moments yesterday. okay, so we don't stuff in

don't need technical stuff in the that and only we the way that we are and only we at the king's meeting with the eu chief, von der leyen, eu chief, ursula von der leyen, now were covering a bit now we were covering this a bit yesterday. to into yesterday. we're going to into it because anger is it more now because the anger is still angered unionists still brewing angered unionists as sought their as rishi sunak sought their support over new post—brexit trade regarding northern trade deal regarding northern ireland. and it was absolutely fascinating the way this meeting was explained . it was it was the was explained. it was it was the king who decided that he wanted to do it then. it wasn't king at all. then it was downing street, but then it wasn't downing street. no, no then it was ursula von der leyen who wanted to we'll never know. to do it. we'll never know. but either should king have either way, should the king have actually with ursula von der actually met with ursula von der leyen? is it the politicisation of our monarchy leading tory brexiteer and of course recently of paris gb news presenter of this paris gb news presenter jacob rees—mogg said it was wrong to involve the king in the immediate political controversy but king charles acting upon but was king charles acting upon his constitutional ? this debate his constitutional? this debate writes itself. we might as well to and i'm joined by to it now. and i'm joined by royal michael cole and. joining me live in the studio is the

political commentator, a communications officer the ia is reem ibrahim . thank you very, reem ibrahim. thank you very, very michael go first. very much. and michael go first. and so i say no i will not do that. it's always ladies first on this show. sorry, michael was very, very brief. go should very, very brief. you go should king charles have met i would like obviously know think that like obviously know i think that jacob was quite right jacob rees—mogg was quite right about the political controversy around ireland around the northern ireland protocol the windsor protocol around the windsor agreement. i think it has to be clear about sort of underlying seem to think that it okay to sort of come out talk about the things they said. so they said that king charles and second line spoke about climate change. they spoke about their undying support , ukraine. look, whatever support, ukraine. look, whatever your on both of these your views on both of these issues, this should not be brought forward and constitute it is quite difficult to have these conversations. and i think these conversations. and i think the monarchy shouldn't be involved this when we're involved in this when we're thinking way the thinking about the way that the northern protocol northern ireland protocol actually did not work. i mean, look, been very clear that look, we've been very clear that the media on the the media coverage on the northern ireland protocol and sort the way that the have sort of the way that the have been sell it have have

been able to sell it have have been able to sell it have have been incorrect. they've been incorrect. i they've essentially that there's essentially said that there's huge of red tape, huge huge amounts of red tape, huge of bureaucracy that are now going be the king should not going to be the king should not be involved. matters with be involved. such matters with such political well i'll such huge political well i'll come back to you lots to come back to you room lots to michael i will finally come to you now. so do you think that king right to this live king was right to make this live on land? yes, he was the on the land? yes, he was the king, of course, as we all know , acts upon advice of the , acts upon the advice of the government. the prime minister the day the king is the monarch. but parliament is sovereign , but parliament is sovereign, however , there's nothing however, there's nothing complete neatly on wrong or in any way improper about him meeting ursula von der leyen , meeting ursula von der leyen, the president of the european union, effectively the head of state of the european superstate that would happen at any time and i would have preferred actually if i'd been asked for advice as asked me for advice, i would a preferred if he actually

seen her after had been signed off properly by parliament at westminster and in brussels. but as it is, it is not improper in any way for him to have met her and it seems very clear that it is the settled policy of our and it's going to get a parliamentary majority because labour has clearly said they are going to support the government position on this. so it's a settled policy . it would be settled policy. it would be entirely right and proper for him to have seen her as he did over cucumber sandwiches and that song. so she t tea yesterday at windsor castle and that's the kind of level of detail you've got for a proper commentator that by the way i it is one step away from telling us what colour the curtains are actually it's raining. i'll i'll bnng actually it's raining. i'll i'll bring back because. well bring you back in because. well that's all about northern bring you back in because. well that's protocol.t northern bring you back in because. well that's protocol. what hern bring you back in because. well that's protocol. what about von ireland protocol. what about von der leyen. breaking royal protocol . she's out and she protocol. she's come out and she spilled beans about spilled the beans about it.

that's well she that's a big no no. well she spill beans and i said look spill the beans and i said look i it's improper for head i do it's improper for the head of state united kingdom of state of the united kingdom for king charles to meet with ursula von der just ursula von der leyen just immediately after such huge amounts of political vulnerability within this controversy, know northern controversy, we know northern ireland protocol was incredibly controversial. we know that the there's the red tape , the there's the red tape, the bureaucracy was very difficult to to cut through. and now to cut to cut through. and now hopefully we're going to see that will change. however, that this will change. however, northern ireland is still under the jurisdiction . this is the ecj jurisdiction. this is still controversial , haven't got still controversial, haven't got the support from the dup . i the support from the dup. i think it's incredibly improper for king charles to sit there and his cucumber sandwiches and have his cucumber sandwiches and have his cucumber sandwiches and ten photographs and smiles. whilst we're still debating this in house, they've in the house, they've been passed. well, i just wonder passed. yep. well, i just wonder whether not, michael, think whether or not, michael, i think you're a bit you're alluding since a bit earlier whether or earlier on whether or not actually slightly wrong actually perhaps slightly wrong to this as to whether or to frame this as to whether or not charles is blame. not king charles is blame. the implication was implication is that he was acting downing street's acting on downing street's advice staring. so let's advice eat or staring. so let's let's chart downing let's have chart should downing street have involved him . i mean street have involved him. i mean it did appear to put the gloss

on the deal i don't that they're going to wheel him out every time they want something done. well i don't think the allegedly grey buckingham wouldn't grey men in buckingham wouldn't have without they'd had a have acted without they'd had a good nudge in the ribs from downing to do . and it is downing street to do. and it is also important . i mean, they did also important. i mean, they did also important. i mean, they did also talk climate change. they talked ukraine and other important matters . the important matters. the continental drift hasn't got me wider. we are still part of europe. good relations with europe. good relations with europe after brexit, a true brexit, a very , very important brexit, a very, very important show. it was important that should go that these are symbolic , symbolic moments, but symbolic, symbolic moments, but they have great meaning and they have great power . they have great meaning and they have great power. i don't need to tell you all the important things . the to tell you all the important things. the past to tell you all the important things . the past 1904, to tell you all the important things. the past 1904, king edward, the seventh cemented the entente cordiale with france with france, 1939, the visit of the king queen to america ensured that we had support of america during . world war ii. america during. world war ii. these are important to quit. the king has to act it absolutely

properly. here and let's just say this ursula von der leyen is an anglo . she in a way owes her an anglo. she in a way owes her life to this country because when was a young student and was under threat from the bottom line of gang and all the terrorists in west germany. she lived here under name protected by the metropolitan police perhaps they took all they got and they got to the front. perhaps they did. perhaps they did. in fact, most most europeans their lives to monica anyway we'll leave that. michael, you very michael, thank you very much. michael, thank you very much. michael commentator. michael cole, royal commentator. and the studio is and joining me in the studio is a commentator and a political commentator and communicate his opposite. the iea remember him. of iea is remember him. both of you, thank very much. you, thank you very, very much. now, as i understand it, we're going to live to a scene because there's a huge search is underway a month old baby underway. a two month old baby after missing christopher constance marten , her boyfriend, constance marten, her boyfriend, marc gordon , were arrested in marc gordon, were arrested in brighton. it was a big, big search wasn't set . the search that wasn't set. the search that wasn't set. the search does continue for that child, police child, as have sussex. police have to public to have appealed to public to search outbuildings their property, be vigilant when

they're walking in they're walking on open land in brighton and new haven. now the couple will finally at around 930 last night in brighton they got a tip off for a member of the public. but crucially that baby was not with. we go live now to brighton where we join our editor, our homeland security editor, mark white. mark, thank you. what's latest? well, we are what's the latest? well, we are waiting for an update on camera from the senior investigating officers , the metropolitan officers, the metropolitan police and from sussex police. we're are expecting them here any time really. and what you can't see is a huge big bank of cameras behind the camera and microphones here. so if they start throwing objects at me, you'll know that our senior officers are on the way and duck out of the way. but they're due to give us another update really on this investigation is going we heard about an hour ago a telephone briefing them to indicate that as far as the search for the missing child is concerned sadly, no sign of this

infant as yet . it appears that infant as yet. it appears that both constance and mark gordon are in custody on suspicion . are in custody on suspicion. child neglect have not been cooperative with the police officers giving them the kind of information that they would need to trace the whereabouts of that baby. to trace the whereabouts of that baby . so what to trace the whereabouts of that baby. so what we to trace the whereabouts of that baby . so what we have seen baby. so what we have seen throughout morning here is a very significant police operation . 200 police officers operation. 200 police officers from the metropolitan police sussex police partners in surrey police as well here searching a big allotment which is just to the left of me several hundred metres that allotment extends up the road to a line of officers have been through that allotment . throughout today throughout morning and then back again . morning and then back again. it's probable that in the hours in the days ahead we might see a more methodical for and sake search of the allotment area. we

understand that so far there's no indication yet of where this couple have been living. if they were rough anywhere around here, they were seen at convenience store, which is just a couple of minutes down the road from where i am , was about 9:30 last night i am, was about 9:30 last night . a member of the public spotted them recognise their faces from some of the many appeals there have been over the last two months and then dialled 999 sussex police tell us that they had a patrol car here at the scene within 6 minutes of that 999 call, the couple were spoken to and then arrested at the scene they're being questioned of course overnight and throughout today. but the are still trying to ascertain a proper credible story as to where that child might be. they say that they're hopeful that this child can still be found .

this child can still be found. clearly with every passing hour given , the weather conditions as given, the weather conditions as . well, we've got a northerly 20 day. it's very cold here. it's starting to read. no any child out in the open that would be very, very troublesome indeed. but you know if they are under some shelter the conditions are notideal some shelter the conditions are not ideal at all. no look, thank you very much for bringing us the very latest on that. as mark said, we are expecting to hear from the police shortly. so we will bring you that on this show. right. look coming up later, guys. we will talk later, guys. but we will talk about transgender rapist , about the transgender rapist, some formerly of course some formerly known, of course as adam graham, who was today starting an eight year prison sentence in a men's jail. remember all the controversy and the hoo ha. yeah. okay we're going delve right into that. going to delve right into that. i will see you into .

welcome back . we always cover welcome back. we always cover the most controversial topics this show. and this is no different because . transgender different because. transgender rapist tyler price, formerly known, of course, as adam graham, has been jailed now for eight years. and in will not be bars in a scottish prison. this caused a lot hoo ha a lot of people are thinking i what it will be that brings down well it turns out this in part it's a man in a wig wearing pink coat. so there we go. the judge told bryson that they are not victim in this situation. it comes as transgender women convicted of violent crimes be banned from female prisons under new rules to be introduced in england and wales. justice secretary dominic raab backed the ban, commenting that safety has to come first in our prisons hate discuss this further is the co—director of full women's scotland susan smith. susan, thank you very, very much. i mean, i suppose in a roundabout way, sanity has prevailed. has it. in a very

roundabout way, yes. but it's quite clear this was something that could have been forestalled. the people were warning about we had signs at a rally recently . we told you so . rally recently. we told you so. and you know, it's still not perfect in we still have five male people in women's prisons are exceptionally violent criminals . they are not going to criminals. they are not going to be moved as far as we're aware . be moved as far as we're aware. okay. alright. and just when it comes this now do you really think it wasn't for campaigns like yourself if it wasn't for , like yourself if it wasn't for, you know, getting a certain amount of coverage and if it wasn't a controversy with stuff about it, what would currently be happening that today? quite possibly we will be seeing a man with intact or going in to with bits intact or going in to a sex offender as . well but said a sex offender as. well but said going into woman's prison and going into a woman's prison and we what you just find we know that what you just find would have gone under the radar . yes. and you know , is we're . yes. and you know, is we're

only in february and this is only in february and this is only one of three cases involving individuals who've identified as trans that have come court this year. so, you know, there's quite a few that could been heading towards prisons, but the outcry this i think you know that picture of graham bryson outside the court in that leggings was a bit of a game changer as far as that was concerned but in a it's still an issue and we still need we still need clarity on the rest of the people in this scottish prison service . the scottish prison service. the scottish prison service is not updated the guidance properly really at all yet can i just ask you this it is relevant obviously. i hope you appreciate the tone in which i mean, but let's just say that i'll bryson goes into the men's prison and suffers as a result of a transgender woman. whatever the correct terminology is now

how would you feel about that ? how would you feel about that? look i think prisons especially for men men in prisons are very dangerous places. or can be very dangerous places. or can be very dangerous places. or can be very dangerous places. they're not always . and there are men in who always. and there are men in who are exceptionally vulnerable and we know that gay men young men and weak men, old men , men with and weak men, old men, men with learning disabilities are at risk at heightened levels of risk at heightened levels of risk . and we really need make risk. and we really need make sure the prison service keeps people safe. and that is why they have wings for vulnerable prisoners. and so should be able to cope with someone like bryson within that structure because they already have a structure coping with vulnerable men and in male prisons. coping with vulnerable men and in male prisons . you know, one in male prisons. you know, one thing that i think is escaped a lot of attention in all of this, which is that this individual has been sentenced for rape . two

has been sentenced for rape. two women and the sentence is eight years. i mean , that in itself is years. i mean, that in itself is not a particularly long time for the crimes. if you ignore all the crimes. if you ignore all the guff about whether not this individual is that mark i believe i'm asking whether or not they're a man. i mean, we all know the reality that if we ignore all of that right. i mean, eight years for two rapes sounds pretty mediocre. so poultry sentence, isn't it . well poultry sentence, isn't it. well and he went serve that you know he could well out in half that time and thing that really worries me is what happens when he comes out because yes he's in a male prison now , so that's a male prison now, so that's good. so we can be pleased about that. but when he comes out, will he be allowed to that he's a woman in a hospital or will he be allowed to go to a women's shelter? and the judge has , i shelter? and the judge has, i think that he'd be supervised for three years on release. but i don't know what that means . i don't know what that means. you know, this is somebody who has already already put himself

a college with lot of teenage girls and took advantage of that , watched them getting undressed and all this sort of thing. so know going forward, will he in that position where he is self declaring himself to be a woman and he's allowed to get away with it? this is a very sensitive i'm going to ask now . sensitive i'm going to ask now. it's a bit of a minefield get right so i apologise in advance . i don't actually but do think that sometimes in the of big woke agenda of wanting to be inclusive and diverse and accepting of everybody's differences especially apparently when it comes to sexuality . we occasionally miss sexuality. we occasionally miss warning of somebody who has got either maybe a child with learning difficulties or perhaps bit of a mental illness, and they can put on a course to transition very very early on or actual and predators who are just simply using this as disguise. do we miss that? because the priority seems to be

not being called transphobe or intolerance ? well i think intolerance? well i think i think this there were two different issues it pulled out. one is, especially what happens to children who might have other co—morbidities, who were told that this is a solution for other depression, or although it shows that they're struggling with it. so one issue, the other is the manipulative predators , is the manipulative predators, which according to ken robinson and a lot of people in the scottish parliament would never have come. now, has happened yet again in the character of bryson , and it have taken a genius to know that would because it's , know that would because it's, it's just so obvious a predator will exploit a loophole . you will exploit a loophole. you know i remained . i remain know i remained. i remain extremely frustrated by what the scottish politicians have said . scottish politicians have said. you know the outgoing first minister said she didn't have

information to know if this was a man or a woman. well, the whole point, the law that they tried to put in that nobody tried to put in was that nobody got that . nobody allowed got that. nobody was allowed information. we just had to take their word for it. and they sex bafis their word for it. and they sex basis how ridiculous that was. well exactly . and there appears well exactly. and there appears to be a bit more madness down the road especially if the humza yousaf is a it anyway. look susan thank you. thank you very much. thank you very much. susan smith. i of for women's scotland just reacting bonkers case just reacting that bonkers case really on the now really anywhere on the box now is eight is apparently in prison eight years we can look coming years so that we can look coming up racism be a key issue up should racism be a key issue in the national covid debate? get a load of this. people want race to be at the core of the covid inquiry. apparently covid might be racist. find out why it's the headlines and polly middlehurst . well, the latest middlehurst. well, the latest headunes middlehurst. well, the latest headlines this hour and you've been hearing in patrick's program right now more than 200 police officers are involved in

i'm jacob rees—mogg , member of i'm jacob rees—mogg, member of parliament for north east somerset , a parliament for north east somerset, a former government minister. for years i've walked the corridors of power in both westminster and the city of london. campaigned in the largest democratic vote in ireland. i know this ireland. story i know this country has so much to be proud of. we need to have the arguments, discussions on how we make wisdom of the make it better the wisdom of the nafion make it better the wisdom of the nation in its people. vox populi vox day. that's why i'm joining the people's channel. join me monday, thursday at 8 pm. on gb news. britain's news . channel by news. britain's news. channel by the way, right now was the pandemic that plunged en nation into lockdown. actually a

racist. the uk covid 19 public inquiry has been urged by numerous campaign groups surveys to consider structural racism in every part its investigation. that's right. so now we are going to be considering whether or not the coronavirus racist. the covid 19 virus, of course, did have a massive impact . did have a massive impact. rather, a lot of people. but yes, i want your views and all of this of course. gb views. gb news dot uk . i'm just going to news dot uk. i'm just going to pause for a moments here, ladies and gentlemen, because i'm getting a little of info in my ear that we might be able to get to white shortly. actually to mount white shortly. actually and course just on and that is of course just on the very latest incident is taking place in bright and i'm going to delve in the inbox but we just got a couple of technical issues sorted out here, gb views the gb news dot uk . thank you very much. uk. thank you very much. everyone has been emailing in. of before we go this of course, before we go to this covid stuff with my guest just to about whether

to talk me a bit about whether not we should allow drag queens schools. that's right. a bit of a seismic if people were just going to do this. what we've got a couple of bits and bobs sorted. so look, people are saying, absolutely let saying, no, absolutely not. let kids susan harris has kids be, kids. susan harris has been touch. it been in touch. susan, it obviously this particular obviously on this particular show, says, i keep hearing show, she says, i keep hearing some people why is it so some people asking why is it so for queens go into for drag queens to go into primary myself, would primary schools? myself, i would ask, men to go into ask, why do men want to go into schools with children? we're going be returning our going to be returning to our topic later in case you're topic later on in case you're wondering why we've pro bath i and well it's because it is in the believe not sex the news believe it not sex education some schools is education in some schools is apparently being taught by drag queens of that. but queens get a load of that. but we are back on track now. ladies and gentlemen, i'm going talk and gentlemen, i'm going to talk about or not the about whether or not the coronavirus racist coronavirus was indeed racist because racial because people want racial elements be at core elements of it to be at the core of all covid 19 inquiry, joining to discuss this is imani sit out activist organiser of, the activist and organiser of, the black matter protest. activist and organiser of, the black stuff. matter protest. activist and organiser of, the black stuff. sorry, r protest. great stuff. sorry, we had a little bit of an issue getting you that, but we are. so you on that, but here we are. so do think the coronavirus was racist? okay, well, me just be clear. so racism firmly interwoven society

interwoven into british society . so acts as if it has no . so it's acts as if it has no bearing. racial disparities would be utterly so in order to ensure race, equality and race equity, one would need to consider institutionalised racism. also referred to structural racism. okay so does this seem to centre around the that supposedly a disproportionate of people from minority backgrounds die as a result of the coronavirus. a lot of people are say not simply because certainly in big city areas the way that it seems to work economically was that all these people might public facing jobs. so for example whether it was bus drivers etc. etc. or indeed nurses actually who arrived at the front this , arrived at the front of this, that is not racist . that in itself is not racist. just a thing, isn't it? no, not at all. so again what? people fail to realise this is something that i've spoken about is prejudice plays a role is that prejudice plays a role in single thing we do in every single thing that we do andifs in every single thing that we do and it's also the foundation for every single form of discrimination you can think of , which includes racism, sexism, misogyny institutionalised misogyny and institutionalised racism . so let's clear on the racism. so let's be clear on the definition of institutionalised

racism . it means a culture of racism. it means a culture of prejudice. a culture prejudice within an organisation or institution , which ultimately institution, which ultimately means that policies and procedures are implemented in a way that disadvantages black and brown communities, which includes quiet what their job role is and who is given positions of power. so in other words, all of these things that influence by prejudice or prejudice , that's what prejudice, that's what ultimately the invasion ultimately led to the invasion arguments of the black and brown community. are there any white people positions in people in positions power in say, know. like the say, i don't know. like the nigerian or something say, i don't know. like the nithat|n or something say, i don't know. like the nithat structural or something say, i don't know. like the nithat structural racism something say, i don't know. like the nithat structural racism ?)mething say, i don't know. like the nithat structural racism ? let'siing is that structural racism? let's be clear. i think you're missing point here. so in times of institutionalised racism within the so that's what we're talking about here. it ultimately leads to something called the guinness class effects. you heard of that before? i have , yes. so there before? i have, yes. so there was a man who gave up a while ago. you're tempting me, but yes. carry on. all right. so think guinness glass. so it basically just a lack of

representation within senior roles. if you think of the guinness glasses, you got a nice thick white layer of foam at, the top and the brown liquid towards bottom. the brown liquid ultimately black towards bottom. the brown liquid ultirbrown black towards bottom. the brown liquid ultirbrown community black towards bottom. the brown liquid ultirbrown community andlack towards bottom. the brown liquid ultirbrown community and those and brown community and those unfortunately given of unfortunately are not given of power at the same rate their white counterparts, which means they end up having to settle for lower job roles, which also lowerjob roles, which also means line job roles, which means line job roles, which means they are more likely to be impacted by. things like prove it. very simple if you it. there's a very simple if you actually stop think about actually stop and think about it. patrick okay. all right. so what about this now? do what be done about this now? do we randomly well over we just randomly well over promote people from ethnic backgrounds to make sure all the next time have pandemic next time we have a pandemic that there are more white that well, there are more white people die . well, that one people who die. well, that one be tokenism and box ticking and i don't think that's where we're trying to do we do that sorry i got to what do we do that means understanding racial prejudice, understanding racial prejudice, understanding that that plays whites role within the workplace. it's manifest itself within the workplace. it manifests itself everywhere. and so you have to take that

consideration understanding consideration when understanding racial just like racial disparities, just like you other you would with any other circumstances factors, just circumstances or factors, just like economics and etc, etc. so all of these things and you can take an insensitive race. and that's the point. if we if we if we play the take back britain historically right the demographics britain majority demographics of britain majority white they just have been historically etc. etc. etc. so what should we have done here right . avoid a higher proportion right. avoid a higher proportion ethnic minority people dying as result of the coronavirus crisis because isn't it just natural that by virtue of the fact that people of a certain have been living in this country longer, that they would hold positions of power in that country by virtue of, simply just being here longer . virtue of, simply just being here longer. what should we have done to stop anti—racism done to stop this anti—racism and hence why you've got me here? the anti—racism activist. this is i do. this is what i talk about. you don't want tokenistic politics. you have to be anti racism. sorry. this is what i don't understand is this sorry. this is what i don't understand. right at the same

time, you don't want tokenism. so what should we have done? because shouldn't. and because we shouldn't. and we shouldn't. something shouldn't. that's something we shouldn't. that's something we shouldn't so shouldn't have. just so we shouldn't have. just so we shouldn't have. just so we shouldn't have just the most of people go to positions above people to go to positions above their station. because we their station. but because we didn't and itself is didn't do that and itself is racist. it's like double racist. so it's like double racist. so it's like double racist is it racist according to you, is it now you've what anti—racism is not. so why you're conflating the two things. so let's be clear on what anti—racism is it the practise of opposing all forms of racism. so far foremost is educating oneself and. educating oneself in regards to how prejudice manifests itself at . yes, when you start at work. yes, when you start with that , you can then lead on with that, you can then lead on to how you can mitigate against those circumstances like putting in places, putting in and you know, a certain kind of circumstances that allow you to ensure that you are being anti—racist, you are promoting anti—racism , the aim, educating anti—racism, the aim, educating yourself here about prejudice. and that's what you're failing to do. and you're kind of conflating token ism and box ticking. so if look at some of the key, if we look at some of the key, if we look at some of the key, if we look at some of the key areas where, people

sadly did die a result or they were affected. you've got you kind of obvious job so public facing jobs right so nurses example do you think that the nhs is instituted anti racist yes . of course it is again think yes. of course it is again think of the guinness here you have to remember that the majority of people at the bottom on the front job roles like how are we they are the ones that are mostly impacted those individual are typically black and brown. the reason why they are typically black and brown is because of prejudice plays a role within the workplace. this is what we're talking about again you need to understand institutionalised racism and you need to understand anti racism in all to have a genuine , cogent in all to have a genuine, cogent conversation . okay, so what do conversation. okay, so what do you want to see? what do you get several times . okay, well, what several times. okay, well, what do you want to see as a results, this covid inquiry, then you think that racism is obviously a key issue, this according to you andindeed key issue, this according to you and indeed other campaign groups as and want racism or as well. yes. and want racism or understanding to be at the core

of all covid 19 inquiry. why should that trump things like the care home disaster , the the care home disaster, the economic impact that has left people in absolutely devastated situations, the wasting money, for example, when it comes to ppe and all of this, why should race be at the core. when i get what you're saying? absolutely. but let's be honest, a lot people do vehemently disagree with what you said that . yeah. with what you said that. yeah. because of their lack of understanding . so again, it's understanding. so again, it's just purely to down ignorance, which understandable . a lot which is understandable. a lot of haven't educated of people haven't educated themselves, vicious themselves, again, this vicious cycle and. you see what i'm doing with it. so, yes i appreciate what you're saying, but honest with you here, but to be honest with you here, patrick, either and patrick, it's not either or. and that's where it comes down to just understanding what it is. i'm talking about educating. you can that. what's kind of can do that. what's kind of combating all the other issues need to be dealt with. it's not either or. it's a party that needs to be dealt with alongside many other it's just many other parties. it's just i'm keen get together best i'm keen to get together best

that i am keen to get the best understanding of what you're talking about. because one of the stood out me, the things that stood out to me, you know , in the black lives you know, in the black lives matter movement, is not matter movement, etc, is not simply just the fact that black lives matter rise also things lives matter rise is also things like radical redistribution like the radical redistribution of things it's of wealth and things that it's spoken manifesto, spoken about this manifesto, about breakdown of the traditional nuclear family. so actually, you're looking at actually, when you're looking at this. i mean, do do you also agree with those things ? we're agree with those things? we're if trying to educate if we're trying to educate ourselves, should we educate ourselves, should we educate ourselves fact maybe ourselves about the fact maybe you agree with something you also agree with something quite marxist and against the nuclear family is that worth noticing or is that not what you think? no, i'm very glad that you because it's been you said that because it's been four years now. and i've been saying last four years. saying for the last four years. so blm movement comprises of so the blm movement comprises of several different have several different. you have those believe in abolition those that believe in abolition and you have those that believe in form forming institutions in form of forming institutions that we believe be that we believe to be institutionally racist. my name is mornington, i'm a reformist. i believe in reform . i'm not i believe in reform. i'm not marxists. i don't believe in abolishing any institution or any of the comments that you

made. well, it's just a matter of fact. the extreme ends of the blm movement. so i do not represent blm, uk , i am my own represent blm, uk, i am my own entity and an anti—racism activist and within in higher education. i'm an officer as well. so none of those things should attributed to me. basically thank you very, very much. i must say i do always enjoy our interactions on this show and i know that we disagree on various things, but i do like having charts and thank you very much for. coming up and having this conversation, i'm ice this conversation, i'm on ice now. organiser of now. activist and organiser of the matter protest, the black lives matter protest, just to the idea, just reacting to the idea, anyway, issues should be at anyway, that issues should be at the core of the covid. do the core of the covid. what do you ladies and you make of that, ladies and gentlemen , right now there has gentlemen, right now there has been radio silence from some celebrities and employees who campaigned to stop the deportation of elliotts . it was deportation of elliotts. it was revealed that went on to kill with a brutal knife. i am asking whether or not mps should now apologise for that. i be back

police and sussex police have given an update to the media in the past 40 minutes or so. let's just say what they have to say. i can confirm . that they were i can confirm. that they were initially arrested on suspicion of child neglect . i can now of child neglect. i can now confirm that they have been further arrested on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter and that they remain in custody at police stations in sussex . at police stations in sussex. the baby was not with them and we have not found the baby yet . we have not found the baby yet. yes this is, of course, the case of the arrest car and her partner, who went missing a while ago. there's been a huge police search for them. both of those people arrested. no sign of that two month old baby as yet but a search involving around officers remains . around 200 officers remains. police have appealed to the pubuc police have appealed to the public to search outbuildings on their property and to be vigilant when walking on open line between. brighton and newhaven. i believe can actually cross live now to brighton and join our home and security my way. we'll have the latest on

all of those developments. you were press conference. were at that press conference. just us latest place . just give us the latest place. well is a very significant development, no doubt, because it gives a key indication about what the police feel is the likely outcome , sadly, for this likely outcome, sadly, for this child , and that is that this child, and that is that this child, and that is that this child may well be dead. now they are saying publicly that they still hold out hope, that this child may be found alive, but with every passing hour given , with every passing hour given, the fact it's freezing cold here, there's a door. northerly wind has been blowing throughout the day. it's raining off and on here. any child that is not in a warm environment is clearly going to be in a lot of just given the conditions out here have been searching and a allotment just to the north of me throughout the day teams dozens of officers going the two

or 300 metres up through those allotment and back again . in allotment and back again. in fact, we're told that the search is really quite wide . some seven is really quite wide. some seven miles by, 13 miles. a total of 91 square miles . 200 plus 91 square miles. 200 plus officers involved in the search at the moment. but that might in the hours ahead , intensify the hours ahead, intensify further as they expand the search zone towards the port of new haven , where the couple have new haven, where the couple have also been seen lately. now, interestingly, they were also talking about the condition that constant and mark were in when they were arrested and questioned , a condition that questioned, a condition that really led the investigators to cement the suspicion they had that the couple were living out in the open, living for the past two months, just the condition that they were in. and that's

why the search really is concentrated on open spaces and places like the allotments in wooded area around there's a. patrick yeah no thank you very very much smell there is our home security officer he's in brixton. he'll be across all of the latest developments as and when they come in. but obviously very, very concerning case and the one, course, was the initial one, of course, was the initial one, of course, was the were desperate to get the police were desperate to get into contact with those two individuals, two adults they describe. and her partner. they were arrested . and then on top were arrested. and then on top of that, now the police still looking for a month old baby looking for a two month old baby . they have actually kind of re—arrested those individuals , re—arrested those individuals, suspicion of gross negligence, manslaughter which, as mount warrant was saying, was a significant development to say the least. with me now is charlie hedges, a former detective thames detective with thames valley police persons police and a missing persons expert . look, charlie, thank you expert. look, charlie, thank you very for joining expert. look, charlie, thank you very forjoining me. very much forjoining me. a very, very distressing case as just in terms of the way that the police are going about this,

supposedly some 200 officers, drones , etc. i know you hate to drones, etc. i know you hate to say it, of course, but it's . say it, of course, but it's. well, i mean , are clearly, well, i mean, are clearly, clearly some specific vulnerabilities when it comes to a two month old, if indeed they have been out there for this length of time. absolutely. yes i mean, they must be really concerned the welfare of the child. considering weather conditions and the type of rain that they've been living in. but the search is just monumental, difficult. and talking about 90 square miles to be covered, that's huge. so therefore , they that's huge. so therefore, they appeal to the public to help look in their local area and also large number of officers. i'm sure that volunteer search teams will be joining just to increase the cover on the ground to try and find the baby as soon as possible. how rare is a situation like this know this particular case has got a lot of coverage and i think initially it was mainly because of the slightly odd nature of the couple there was arrest and couple okay there was arrest and then her partner who was you know obviously a very different

ilk as it were , and they were ilk as it were, and they were missing. they had a lot of cash . they were evading any kind of massive, serious for a long time . then, of course, there was this issue with the child, a couple of months old now. i mean, how unusual is this of case? they are unusual. it so there are lot of features as you've already outlined that make it make it so. and also when i heard this morning that there had been arrested. one would naturally expect that they would naturally expect that they would give some information about the whereabouts of the child but would seem to be child. but this would seem to be not case. so it does it is not the case. so it does it is unusual for that sort of situation . yeah, indeed . look, situation. yeah, indeed. look, obviously, i certainly don't want to link these two instances, but there is a relevance that the police force . police force, but a police force nonetheless got a lot of criticism for. the search effort into missing nicola bulley police force is clearly a specially in cases like this. do really have their work cut out .

really have their work cut out. they. absolute ali and i'm quite sure they'll be putting maximum number of resources into searches. a highly structured and professional activity , but and professional activity, but also an extremely difficult if you don't have the right information , you don't know information, you don't know where the person was last is just like the proverbial needle in a haystack. but so police searchers are trained to look for that sort of thing. and a police search adviser will be in charge and directing to try and maximise the chances of finding child as quickly as possible. the charlie, thank you very, very much . charlie hodge is very much. charlie hodge is a former detective with thames valley police, a missing persons expert, just reacting to this incredibly bleak isn't it? incredibly bleak news, isn't it? the been arrested on the couple have been arrested on suspicion gross negligence , suspicion of gross negligence, manslaughter and the desperate search . two old baby search. a two month old baby continues. we'll bring you any updates on that as and we updates on that as and when we get it, course. but look, i'm get it, of course. but look, i'm going to move away from that now, okay? so we'll move on from that rishi sunak has been in belfast speaking belfast today speaking to stormont's biggest political parties support parties trying to secure support for over for deal with the eu over trading arrangements with

northern ireland. dup sir northern ireland. dup leader sir jeffrey said the jeffrey donaldson has said the proposals way addressing proposals some way to addressing concerns that caused the boycott so. but potentially some elements of the dup might be on side but we'll have to wait and see but one person who is yet to comment on this is his predecessor, boris johnson. this is stood out to is something that stood out to me on. can't or me earlier on. i can't or actually what does this mean, bofis actually what does this mean, boris legacy. boris johnson's legacy. boris wasn't particularly happy with the that rishi the deal that rishi struck struck initially she still struck initially which she still has praise, has had widespread praise, widespread praise know there are elements the dup and rg and there's always going to be people who aren't happy with it. and i can fully understand the reasons happy reasons why they're not happy with way, a lot of with it. by the way, a lot of that concern is justified. but bofis that concern is justified. but boris johnson, where does this leave him now? does he damage bofis leave him now? does he damage boris some boris johnson's legacy? some tory deal is tory have suggested the deal is so it will finish so good that it will finish bofis so good that it will finish boris off. but are they right? and this move and does this latest move overshadow legacy and all of the that he brought to us? joining me now is lecturer in british politics at the university of liverpool, dr. david jeffrey.

dr. david, you very, very much. well boris johnson given a nose in just rishi sunak his deal damage boris johnson's legacy . i damage boris johnson's legacy. i think it does a bit, yes. i mean, boris johnson staked his his administration on getting brexit done . and there was this brexit done. and there was this obvious overhang around, the issue of northern ireland and a hard border with the eu single market and from what it seems anyway rishi sunak has kind of sorted that the best of anybody's expectations . so you anybody's expectations. so you know that takes one one arrow from johnson's bow that he can come back and say bring me back and i will get brexit done and rishi sunak really has played the air. yeah. what do you think this this does for boris johnson's chances of a because i suppose if simultaneously how is rishi sunak in the polls it's put boris johnson further away from a comeback hasn't it . yes. from a comeback hasn't it. yes. so the better rishi does , the so the better rishi does, the longer the odds are on boris johnson coming back any time soon. but that kind misunderstands boris johnson's appeal to people. nobody, you

know, voted for it because they thought he was a details man or perhaps that he was had a special kinship with eu higher ups. yeah, they like it because of his personality, because of he seems like he's got the kind common touch. despite his background, he seems often like a normal . so in that sense the a normal. so in that sense the fact that rishi sunak, who's always been seen as quite managerial, was able to get a deal managerial, was able to get a deal, might not damage him much, but it helps rishi in the polls. then that makes boris's job of saying you need me for the next election. much difficult. election. much more difficult. well, interesting, isn't well, it's interesting, isn't it? think of the it? because i think one of the things that a lot of people likes about was obviously likes about boris was obviously the quite clearly the fact that quite clearly french the eu didn't like french and the eu didn't like him. quite a lot of him. i think as quite a lot of brits thought, this is this brits thought, oh, this is this is we've got guy here is great. we've got a guy here who fights for our corner. he's proud to be british and he's quite thing that the quite a good thing that the french an okay french think he's an idiot. okay and actually, we've got and actually, now we've got rishi who had a monumental rishi sunak who had a monumental love von der love it with ursula von der leyen yesterday. and i think for a lot of people who staunch brexiteers, wasn't brexiteers, that wasn't necessarily of

necessarily a great look of course detail a in a course this detail in a in a deal that well prove be deal that may well prove to be good fun. but i think the optics of it weren't particularly great and i wonder whether not that and i wonder whether or not that might johnson's might play into boris johnson's favour. though rishi favour. it looks as though rishi sunak guy in suit, sunak now small guy in a suit, former banker on with is may on the now maybe the continent now that maybe that'll be good for boris johnson . i'm not really sure johnson. i'm not really sure that it would be just purely because this was a massive that was hanging over the whole of the kind of the brexit process the kind of the brexit process the role northern ireland. so the role of northern ireland. so in ways brexiteers might be in many ways brexiteers might be happy that they know opponents don't have northern ireland as an hold against them an issue to hold against them anymore. a boris anymore. it's also quite a boris is quite greek figure in the sense the some of the things that him really amongst that make him really amongst some society so his some parts of society so his personality is boisterous make him very with other people and some of those such as ursula von der leyen are the ones who he needed win over to get the deal. he wanted, which is why in the end, you know, the northern ireland protocol bill was through because he through parliament because he couldn't get satisfactory couldn't get a satisfactory agreement with , the eu.

agreement with, the eu. so i think on balance this is definitely better for rishi sunak than it is. definitely better for rishi sunak than it is . boris johnson sunak than it is. boris johnson okay . what would your advice to okay. what would your advice to bofis okay. what would your advice to boris johnson be then? do you think he should lay low for a while and then just come back when the opportunity is right ? when the opportunity is right? well, nobody likes somebody who's coming across as bit of who's coming across as a bit of a spoilt brat, so he should who's coming across as a bit of a spoilt brat , so he should say a spoilt brat, so he should say congratulations, rishi. you know, you've done well here, know, you you've done well here, but there are still issues. you know, we want in 2019 a levelling up. we need to see more commitment on that and just kind of be the kind of positive bofis kind of be the kind of positive boris that people liked boris that people really liked in interesting come here. in 2019. interesting come here. quick question. it just say we'd like to say where our people are zooming in from on this show and i couldn't help but as you said the top left corner that brazil you actually brazil . i am in you actually brazil. i am in brazil. yes and it's very warm very don't want to make any of your views jealous, but i have got my factor 50 all that we. well, thank you for interrupting . i don't know whether it's a houday . i don't know whether it's a holiday or not. we haven't got

time to find. but either way, it's nice to know that we've gone global on gb views. fantastic. dr. david jeffrey, thank lecturer british fantastic. dr. david jeffrey, th.the lecturer british fantastic. dr. david jeffrey, th.the university'er british fantastic. dr. david jeffrey, th.the university of british fantastic. dr. david jeffrey, th.the university of liverpool at the university of liverpool which a brazil which may well have a brazil campus. there we are anyway. campus. so there we are anyway. coming up, it's hands lucky day, a leading tank said the chancellor has got 6 billion quid boost the public purse quid to boost the public purse ahead of his march budget. what should and this is a this is a big one of many questions i'm asking you today. what should jeremy hunt do with his massive package? i'll see you after the

break okay. wonderful i've got loads coming your way for the remainder this hour. i've got a head to head debate as to whether or not we should allow drag queens in schools, because apparently that's kicked off. actually, angry and actually, parents are angry and they've even been talking about hyper sexualised to hyper sexualised content to kids. can't just let kids be

kids. why can't just let kids be kids. why can't just let kids be kids ? i'm also going to be kids? i'm also going to be talking about, believe it not talking about, believe it or not now, know, churchill now, you know, the churchill dogs. so whatever he dogs. oh, yeah. so whatever he says , that that's bad says right, that that's bad because we shouldn't be animals like that particular breed of dog adverts . the dog breeds dog in adverts. the dog breeds about. dog in adverts. the dog breeds about . i mean it's amazing that about. i mean it's amazing that you're allowed deeply looking people real, real faces adverts and that's portrayed as a picture of beauty but that we draw the line having a cartoon dog.so draw the line having a cartoon dog. so yes, the world's mad. but before that, jeremy hunt his lucky day. a leading economic think tank says that a fall in energy prices and a better economic means that the chancellor might just have a £56 billion boost to the public purse ahead of next month's budget. the for fiscal studies assert that our increased tax take will help the uk to avoid a prolonged recession that many experts predicted just a few months ago. but what will the treasury use extra funds for? what we spend the money on? what should our priority be? and i thought it did take a little bit of a sideways look at this. is

the fabulous and journalist it's mike parry, you absolute legend. thank you very much . right. thank you very much. right. if you are a 56 billion quid, what would what spend it on? would you what he spend it on? yeah. first of all, posh are going to say great to be on the show. thank you. you'll reference two deeply unhealthy looking people screen . i hope looking people on screen. i hope that wasn't a reference to myself, but i've got a mirror. i don't worry about it or i carry out a. patrick very seriously . out a. patrick very seriously. can i just say your last story on? this story link brilliantly because you've been talking about northern ireland and the northern ireland protocol solution, which rishi sunak come up with. but let me put this to you. northern ireland is in the united kingdom. rishi sunak prime in two weeks time will overlook chancellor jeremy hunt so much the 15 who are going to put up corporation tax in the united kingdom . to 26% from 19% united kingdom. to 26% from 19% that it united kingdom. to 26% from 19% thatitis united kingdom. to 26% from 19% that it is now sorry, 25% from

19% now a 6% rise. why would anybody don't invest in the counties ulster at 25% when if they go south of the border to ireland the corporation tax 12. literally less than half of what it's to be the united kingdom. so the point i'm making is , is so the point i'm making is, is that whilst we're all rejoicing that whilst we're all rejoicing that we've got a political solution regarding northern ireland, we are still going to inherit a economic. if ireland, we are still going to inherit a economic . if jeremy inherit a economic. if jeremy hunt goes ahead and, puts a corporation tax massively to take us from about fifth in the world. now to about 30th by walking off the corporation tax he's got 56 billion quid. now it's extra money that's come about through favourable economic terms . and the fact economic terms. and the fact that the economy is doing . the

that the economy is doing. the interest payment on the national trillion pound debt has gone down. please, mr. hunt . use that down. please, mr. hunt. use that to stick at 19% until corporation tax so low and loads of companies will come at astrazeneca to told us they're leaving and going to ireland. but it's bonkers and it's not rocket science, is it? you know, i mean, what we need, we do this is what a lot little people i don't get it right, which is the people don't people don't like the idea in this country of anyone having loads of money and they we've to rinse them they go, we've got to rinse them dry got this. but as dry and we've got this. but as you people and, we need you we need people and, we need big businesses come and big businesses to come and employ to make things employ people and to make things in this country and for our our our economy do do well. our economy to do to do well. can ask one of the areas we do can i ask one of the areas we do because he's going to jeremy is going choice here. going to have a choice here. okay. to an extent is okay. well, to an extent is going to have a choice. do we give whopping big public give a whopping great big public sector rises or do maybe give sector rises or do we maybe give some to people. what

some tax breaks to people. what would solution to would you say your solution to that? be fair, my that? because to be fair, my even i only think he could even if i only think he could give a nurse 25 gram pay rise, even, they probably still wouldn't him. yeah. wouldn't vote for him. yeah. people like me now in people going to like me now in saying nurses get saying that actually nurses get a deal saying that actually nurses get a deal. this country, a very good deal. this country, they have a steady job, they have quite a good income, have fantastic rights that fantastic pension rights that goes right through . the public goes right through. the public sector. we all know covid two or three years of lockdown. people lost jobs, businesses went bust , but they were protected. of course , worked very hard during course, worked very hard during covid, but their jobs were protected . they don't have to protected. they don't have to suffer the privations which people had to. now asked me where else we should spend it. first of all, i'd say so. and he's got a root and branch examined. the spending and the national health service. it's horribly wasteful , terribly horribly wasteful, terribly wasteful. we said every day managers in the national health service are paid hundreds of thousands of pounds for everything. patrick may i also point one specific thing. i live

on the south coast. the queen elizabeth, our aircraft carrier , came into portsmouth harbour the other day. a glorious sight , the biggest ship the royal navy's ever had, except for one thing, there are no aeroplane lanes on the deck of the queen it's a ludicrous. lanes on the deck of the queen it's a ludicrous . and you know it's a ludicrous. and you know what? that's because run the defence budget down. nothing in an era when the world is getting more and more dangerous. so, mr. holmes , say to you again, you holmes, say to you again, you push more money into the defence budget so we can defend ourselves. right. there we go . ourselves. right. there we go. so we've got some of this money, this extra wonga going to defence. we've got frankly as well people being allowed to got to off with having to pay to get off with having to pay more corporation tax. great stuff . those two good stuff. so those are two good solutions that you does not sound i'm particularly sound like. i'm particularly keen sector keen giving the public sector a whopping great pay rise. it turns out the teachers are on strike as well, but people we'll find doesn't find out later. it doesn't matter schools have matter because some schools have decided in drag queens, decided to rope in drag queens, which about. so which we'll be talking about. so there that. what else would you

do with the money. well patrick we the public sector we all that the public sector unions at moment conducting unions at the moment conducting not just what they call a battle for the rights of their you know their members and their employees. but we know from what we've seen in the background of the train disputes, you know, i'm wouldn't say train drivers because it's train workers and train drivers , you know, already train drivers, you know, already read it . there train drivers, you know, already read it. there is a train drivers, you know, already read it . there is a political read it. there is a political element to them not settling on a deal . so if element to them not settling on a deal. so if we element to them not settling on a deal . so if we know that a deal. so if we know that already the deal was never going to be, the government have got to be, the government have got to impose a deal. they've got to impose a deal and say you are better off than the guy who was a carpet fitter who came to my house three weeks ago to refit carpet and said to me , i won't carpet and said to me, i won't be able to work soon, particularly if sadiq khan the metro london introduces this ultra yes emission . and what i'm ultra yes emission. and what i'm saying is people are being taxed right it up to the hilt already

. and i want mr. hulme, the chancellor to start engineering a reduction of all taxes for everybody this country that will make more prosperous. i do that one day i introduce you as prime minister mike parry. i think that would be absolutely fantastic. thank you very much. it sounds tough. we love to say it, mike. always a fan favourite. mike parry, that broadcaster and journalist. i think we seem pretty suggestions in you're just joining , i'm in case you're just joining, i'm wondering we're parroting on wondering why we're parroting on about we spend money on and about what we spend money on and save money on. jeremy on essentially might be in possession a £56 billion windfall in a way that weren't quite expecting to have the question is in light of the fact that the budget coming up, what should that money? should he do with that money? and actually are saying, and actually people are saying, well, he could say it's cost a lot by reducing lot of it by reducing expenditure in other aspects. it could also invest military, could also invest our military, all look, i've got all of stuff. but look, i've got loads coming. your very loads more coming. your very shortly look shortly on this show and look the there on strike but the teachers there on strike but don't worry drag queens have taken that place find out

exactly what the living heck is going on there. when i come back after, your headlines, the polly middlehurst . patrick you, the middlehurst. patrick you, the top stories on gb news couple that went missing with their newborn baby in january have been further arrested on suspicion of gross negligence, manslaughter , constance marten manslaughter, constance marten and partner mark gordon were found in brighton yesterday and were initially on suspicion of child . more than 200 police child. more than 200 police officers are searching a 91 square mile area to try to find the two month old baby. sussex police say they're making assessing about the baby's welfare on an hourly basis . i welfare on an hourly basis. i think once we still have hope that the baby can be found and well, we must retain that hope. and as you see, the of officers we have deployed on that open search. however as time progresses as to the it is closing as it was last night in

terms of the cold and the coldness and the impact that have on a baby. clearly risk is getting higher and we have to be open to the fact this may not end the way we would like . a end the way we would like. a transgender rapist has been jailed for eight years after being found guilty of two women while still man. 31 year old isla bryson was convicted of the two rapes last month. crimes took place in 2016 and 2019 when bryson identified as a man and was known as adam graham. the case controversy when bryson housed in an all female prison but has since been moved to an all male setting . the prime all male setting. the prime minister says now the time to come together as he praised new brexit deal known as windsor framework. during visit to northern ireland, rishi sunak struck a new trade deal with the eu yesterday which seeks to some issues with northern ireland protocol. he said it would a

smooth flowing free trade across the uk. the deals allows for some oversight by european court of justice and dup is now addressing the detail of the document . but as the latest news document. but as the latest news headlines, i'm back at six with your full news bulletin . your full news bulletin. all right, ladies , gentlemen, all right, ladies, gentlemen, time to delve into the terrifying world of my inbox. gb views a gb news dot uk. i was asking whether you thought that rishi sunak's deal with the eu was a good thing or a bad thing. whether not it could be a turning point. as he kicked bofis turning point. as he kicked boris johnson's legacy into the long grass. sheila says and i say, fantastic. certainly say, fantastic. rishi certainly has blinder . say, fantastic. rishi certainly has blinder. no way has played a blinder. no way could boris have shown the sticking for achievement. sticking for this achievement. is unfair ? this is is this a bit unfair? this is based on fat on boris. i'll your point, sheila. and for what it's

worth, sheila, you actually you do share the same name as my do not share the same name as my hamster. that's something, hamster. so that's something, isn't says yes, isn't it? but sheila says yes, that boris johnson wouldn't have been able do this. but been able to do this. but i wonder whether or he might wonder whether or not he might anything not being cut off at the knees by covid, all of that disaster peter from disaster anyway. peter from swansea keir, the swansea says if sir keir, the man wanted a second man who wanted a second referendum, deal, has referendum, loves deal, it has to pro eu and mirrors to be pro eu and mirrors rubbish. and this a key point rubbish. and this is a key point . a bit disconcerting . was it a bit disconcerting everyone else? how lovely, lovely it was with this love on delight and rishi sunak and the fact the eu appears to fact that the eu appears to be so happy this and that. so happy about this and that. keir remainer was keir starmer our remainer was willing to wave this through and that the remaining hacks within the conservative policy are happy should he not be happy about it. should he not be more that the erg more alarm bells that the erg and dup wings of the and the dup wings of the conservative party and, the epp respectively? of course , are the respectively? of course, are the ones who appear to be most sceptical about. i.e. the sceptical about. this i.e. the brexit. is. is this. when you really drill into it, is this a deal that pleases remainers more the staunch brexiteers and presumably that should be a

concern to anyone who for brexit. a lot of people i get are completely fatigued by this though and decide that actually enough. though and decide that actually enough . enough. neil says, why enough. enough. neil says, why are you calling a brexit breakthrough? his deal means the foreign an oversight foreign court has an oversight over of the uk, which is over parts of the uk, which is a. neil, think you've hit the a. neil, i think you've hit the nail on the head that which is clearly why a lot of people are angry about it and i'm very sympathetic towards that sympathetic towards all of that for craig says of for one more. craig says one of the major uk being the major issues the uk being part eu was a lack of part of the eu was a lack of power to control policy that negatively impacts the uk. does this give us a genuine this deal give us a genuine veto? well, this is part of the problem because we don't really quite as dougie or quite as dougie beattie or northern reporter appeared to be saying earlier on essentially the stormont break could be poles, but then that would have to go to westminster at westminster will go to the eu and the eu could basically nah stick stuck stick it and then we're stuck with aren't but here's with aren't we. but here's something bit more something a little bit more interesting i think than the old northern ireland protocol, which is to discuss is we're going to discuss whether drag queens whether or not drag queens should be in primary schools because. that are

should be in primary schools b

welcome back. now are out on strike but don't do not worry because drag queens are taking their place . not quite, but it's their place. not quite, but it's good enough for a headline. an independent review has been launched, an online live man school following complaints from parents queen parents after a drunk queen guest told pupils guest reportedly told pupils there was 73 genders and made a child to a donkey that they were only to leave the classroom. yes, seven pupils were reportedly traumatised reportedly left traumatised after taught about sex after being taught about sex change and quite change operation and quite graphic sexual acts . well. is graphic sexual acts. well. is this really what we should be telling our kids at school? presumably the taxpayers expense as well. joining me now is transgender teacher and journalist debbie hayton and everybody's favourite lgbtq activist and, director of the peter tatchell foundation is peter tatchell foundation is peter tatchell. thank you very much, both of you. great to have both on the show. debbie, i will start with you. let's just keep it broad to begin with. we are drag in schools now . come on, drag in schools now. come on, then. one out. yeah, no drag .

then. one out. yeah, no drag. don't drag queens. i don't want to , turness. and it's to, turness. and it's inappropriate to bring adult entertainers who are performing, enrol in schools, schools for that, for children to learn that, for children to learn that, to learn the master english, the science, not to be to drag queens who are as said, the forming enrol in school. okay, peter , bring you into it okay, peter, bring you into it now. should we have drag queens in schools? peter tatchell well view is whatever works best, whatever helps children engage with lessons and reading a fantastic thing and these drag queens storytellers are actually encouraging young people pick up books and to start reading . now books and to start reading. now the feedback i've from many schools is that when they're mainstream , everyday teachers do mainstream, everyday teachers do this , that the kids don't pay this, that the kids don't pay much attention . when the drag much attention. when the drag queen comes in and does it. the kids are riveted. they listen, they learn, and they reading. so i think if we can encourage kids to read more , that is a

to read more, that is a brilliant, brilliant thing , i brilliant, brilliant thing, i think. yeah. i mean, i there is a question between just bringing a question between just bringing a child's attention , something i a child's attention, something i mean, to be fair, peter , if mean, to be fair, peter, if i was an 11 year old and ice one day i arrived at school and my phone teacher said , you know, phone teacher said, you know, his drag queen and they are going to detect that i'm quoting now graph it disproportionately in indecent presents of sexual acts and gender identity . i mean acts and gender identity. i mean , they would take my interest , , they would take my interest, but the question is whether or not that should be taught to kids peter done in that way. well of course relationship sex education should be age appropriate and the purpose this education is to try combat the unacceptably levels of teenage pregnancies abortions and hiv and to safeguard kids against sexual abuse . your kids need to sexual abuse. your kids need to know the end is 16. sex below the age is unlawful , but if the age is unlawful, but if they're going to have sex shouldn't. but if they do do it

safely, carefully, with respect to their selves and their partners . now, this whole issue partners. now, this whole issue is always driven by a desire to for the welfare and well—being of young kids. we know that in schools and countries that don't do this kind of education. that much higher levels , teenage much higher levels, teenage pregnancies and abortions. much higher levels, teenage pregnancies and abortions . we pregnancies and abortions. we don't want that on our kids. just i'll come back to that. i to bring debbie back in now just from peter said there said it seems to be always driven for the welfare of the children but that appears to be the opposite of what a lot of parents are say which is actually i don't want my child to be exposed to quite graphic sexualised . by a man graphic sexualised. by a man dressed as a woman at school and i just wonder, could it damage children's welfare ? well, yes it children's welfare? well, yes it could. what amazes me that schools are bringing in extra people who are not trained teachers , who are not trained teachers, who are not trained educators to be to be teaching

children something quite profound about sex education. whenever, as a teacher, you bnng whenever, as a teacher, you bring a visitor into school, you have to be very careful about what their what that person is going to is going to teach the children. sex education is something which should taught something which should be taught by teachers , not by people by teachers, not by people brought in. i'm of peter's other point about getting children engaged reading is a engaged in reading is a completely separate issue . why completely separate issue. why don't we bring in police officers into school engineers, carpenters firefighters, those sort of people come in and role and act role models to children far , better role models than an far, better role models than an adult. and to turn around, i'd suggest. peter, i've got to honest i question i do honest with you, i question i do question the motives of a fully grown man wanting to dress up as a and go into a don't know, a school sometimes primary schools and do a quite sexualised show . and do a quite sexualised show. i don't think that's peter. but can i assure you that these drag

storytellers do not normally talk about sex at all? they simply encourage young people to up books and read and they read stories with them and encourage them to carry on reading. there's no sex whatsoever in this particular case. is exceptional, unusual and we don't know the full details , don't know the full details, don't know the full details, don't know the full details, don't know exactly what was or precisely what was involved. but what we do suspect is that the young people may have asked questions, and i suspect that's what's happened. and then drag performer felt obliged to answer that questions being and upfront. if the person has said i'm refusing to answer , that i'm refusing to answer, that would have been also very . so would have been also very. so i think it's we don't know the full details that's. the point do you just just though, peter, genuinely, do you not that there might actually be a massive safeguard issue? i mean, just just looking at on paper, right. if given the health and safety that goes around at schools that the minute you plan planning a

school trip, i'm sorry, but if someone the idea someone just floated the idea of, know gary's to of, you know, gary's going to turn dress with a load turn up in a dress with a load of slop on and sit down with primary school age children, potentially all ten and 11 year olds and potentially talk about certain sex acts. i'm not sure i could mention at this time, so i won't. you wouldn't you shouldn't really let that happen , peter. sure. well this was at a secondary school. are and i believe that most of the pupils are aged 16, 17 and 18. so they were not young . this is just the were not young. this is just the young people asking and they were curious. they want to know about certain things like free. we shouldn't be kids. we shouldn't be teaching things inappropriate. and this case, which i think is exceptional . which i think is exceptional. maybe the boundaries were overstepped . i would say this. overstepped. i would say this. everybody goes into a school, including has to be checked. we've got a criminal record check. we get other checks done very felt we have to sign a

declaration of the rules of engagement within school. and what we say is monitored by the teachers and anything that goes wrong will be stopped. i've never i've never once complaint by a pupil , a never i've never once complaint by a pupil, a parent or a teacher . okay, debbie, i'll teacher. okay, debbie, i'll bnng teacher. okay, debbie, i'll bring you into this. now, i just wanted to know, is this is this a desire? maybe appease elements of the woke brigade and they decided to do it? i mean, look, you are you are a i mean i mean, is this a good learning device? maybe. maybe i'm sitting here now being incredibly bigoted and outdated and thinking, you know just because i wasn't taught by a drag queen doesn't mean the other kids can't taught by other kids can't be taught by drag debbie well, it's drag queen. debbie well, it's just completely inappropriate that who came with the idea. it's minus for wanting to if wanting to give children role models . there are lots of good models. there are lots of good role models for children to help us i doctors carpenters. you can those people into school they can read to children and perhaps

tell them about the work that they do but somebody somewhere decided that drag wasn't good . i decided that drag wasn't good. i do think debbie was funding debbie. do you think someone was too afraid to? say no to it though. this is the thing getting. someone's flows in it and they thought, oh, kilgrave, you know, i don't want you know, i don't really want this, but going to this, but i'm going to be called, going to called called, i'm going to be called all those names and actually what's happened is that we've got in got now got drag queens in schools. yeah, well, everybody you want are people want to you want who are people want to feel as if they're a good person and at some point been decided that bringing drag queens into is good people is something that good people do so when stand that the so when others stand that the then yes the fear consequences and the reaction . i just i mean and the reaction. i just i mean i to go and and the reaction. i just i mean ito go and pace i got going to say that from the research that i've seen when schools bring in external speakers on specialist subjects , they tend to have subjects, they tend to have a much higher engagement from facebook . a woman who come on

facebook. a woman who come on mount everest come into my school. i was that was that was fascinating that was gripping i think got to that footballer i think got to that footballer i think we had somebody served in the military or something like that i mean it's the only i would say is our education system crumble to the plumbing the depths what we've got the depths now what we've got we've teachers out on strike we've got teachers out on strike and the solution that we and the only solution that we can come up with boost pupil can come up with to boost pupil engagement is to is to bring up someone who moonlights in soho on evenings . why not, patrick? on evenings. why not, patrick? what works ? what i care about is what works? what i care about is what works and provide jordan are protected. we should try providing and a hand or their welfare is not damage. we should try anything. and as i said, most these talks are nothing. there's no sexual content at all. this is an exceptional, unusual example . i wouldn't unusual example. i wouldn't support it, but i do think that generally drag queen storytelling is a very effective way to encourage , to read debbie way to encourage, to read debbie find out. final one to you. i

just want to focus a bit more on some of the content that's being delivered here apparently and things about certain how skin grafts can be used to, enhance certain body, etc. certain parts of the body, etc. and should just even the and look, should just even the subject figure who's subject matter figure out who's teaching it? should that kind of subject matter be being taught to think? not to kids? do you think? not necessarily general classes necessarily to general classes of children it be of children? children it be taught maths, english, science watch children should be watch as children should be taught children. are asking taught children. are you asking specific questions then experts can answer those questions, but not in a whole class . it's not in a whole class. it's a very risky environment. start getting involved in topics like that. getting involved in topics like that . all right, look, both of that. all right, look, both of you, thank you very much. must say it was a cracking discussion and bizarre. what's a half hour? i enjoyed it. thank you very much. say is that much. i'll say is that transgender and transgender teacher and journalist said journalist debbie hayes said an lgbtq+ and director of lgbtq+ activist and director of the tatchell foundation. the peter tatchell foundation. peter just lots peter thompson i want just lots of out. think people of points out. i think people may that i was may have thought that i was weeping joy those things i've not actually for want of a better phrase brought to tears by i simply by drag queen. i simply have something and that's something in my eye. and that's the excuse sticking to. well, moving on now, animal rights

group has called for group peta has called for beloved advertising bulldog beloved advertising in bulldog churchill retired after 20 churchill to retired after 20 years our screens. you know years on our screens. you know churchill. i know . years on our screens. you know churchill. i know. is churchill. oh, yes, i know. is the group come the group claims that the advertising of flat faced bulldogs helped contribute to the popularity of the breed which are more to suffer serious health concerns . other pets with health concerns. other pets with a more normal face which i think is face ist isn't it too churchill. joining me now is jennifer whyte communications, manager. that's a thank you very very much. and why now? why are we why we? why we? well, we come enough to churchill know it's all the rage to come after churchill, but it's usually a different type one. why this dog. well, i'm going to say it's because we know that these dogs are suffering flat faced breeds like bulldog every time like english bulldog every time they take a breath are gasping for air. and because of inbreeding, they can't mate without human interference . they without human interference. they can't give birth naturally . and can't give birth naturally. and that really is just the tip of the iceberg. they have a host of

health issues. and that's why it's so vital for companies like churchill to not the depictions of these dogs even cgi ones in any of their advertising. and by doing this it really can help prevent more of these dogs from being born into a lifetime suffering. so you would that these dogs were dead or were never born than were alive. it just seemed like an odd to go after protesting animal rights . after protesting animal rights. i mean we would absolutely support the legislation prevent the breeding of these dogs because they're literally being born to suffer because of our obsession with this flat faced , obsession with this flat faced, you know, look, even though we know it is compromising their health and it's not just peta who's saying this. the british fashion associations recommends that dogs that have bred with these exaggerated features are not allowed to breed. and other countries , europe we've seen countries, europe we've seen have restricted breeding of these dogs to now. and it simply has gone too on long. i've got i've got to i've got to assess

just in light of what you said that okay if you think that these this particular breed of dog has certain physical problems that could lead to a lifetime suffering and as a result that you think that may be it might be better that they weren't born in the first place. i mean you wouldn't say that about human beings would you . about human beings would you. well, when it comes to dog breeding, there is no such thing is responsible breeding and the kennel club actively encourages the breeding of animals who are closely related , which we know closely related, which we know is morally and ethically wrong and something is condemned in humans . and that's why when we humans. and that's why when we see the likes of cross in the kennel club animals with these exaggerated features we have to speak out . and a great way of speak out. and a great way of doing that is asking like churchill to remove depictions of these dogs, which we know in some in the public institutes saying, you know, which animal they want to bring into their home. but really, if love dogs, you should love all dogs regardless how they and

regardless of how they look. and that's encourage everyone that's why we encourage everyone to the shelter to adopt from the shelter they're for what is the they're looking for what is the is i am actually is worth. i am actually massively in favour of going to the home and getting the dog's home and getting a mongrel if you're to say that ultimately that's probably still alright, isn't it? but no, i've got i also have ask this, got i also have to ask this, what that depict grossly what adverts that depict grossly unhealthy individuals. what adverts that depict grossly unhealthy individuals . we are unhealthy individuals. we are consistently being told i say this with full self—awareness of somebody is quite rotund myself that fat beautiful. okay, so why we have fat men and women adverts, but not an animated dog is where you draw the line . is where you draw the line. well, look, i'm to talk about the unnatural standards that humans are foisting on to animals . you have no choice in animals. you have no choice in this matter . you know, dogs just this matter. you know, dogs just want to be dogs. they to run around the park, play, you fat, you know, catch a ball but because of decades of inbreeding , flat faced dogs can't even do the most basic things that give them smallest amount them the smallest amount of enjoyment life and why vets enjoyment in life and why vets up and down country are

up and down the country are actually performing operations on to try and open up on these dogs to try and open up their because it's so unnatural that they look like this. oh look thank very, very much. i did enjoy our chat. look thank very, very much. i did enjoy our chat . jennifer did enjoy our chat. jennifer white. that communication manager, are reacting to the fact churchill dog well should have even been born apparently we go. next up is dewbs& co michelle dewberry michelle is right here. are you? i'm right here. how are you? i'm right, thank you. i did notice, though, when you was using the f word stuff to describe word and stuff to describe myself, notice briefing myself, i notice you briefing a little i always pretend little bit. i always pretend i did. yeah, yeah, yeah. did. yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. i do you're definitely do think you're definitely crying track. i wasn't. crying at the track. i wasn't. can't stop her. she got quiet about it. she with my and it about it. she with my eye and it appears leaking. but there appears to be leaking. but there we anyway. are allowed to we go anyway. we are allowed to cry on how to in cry better on how to cry in exercise. see, that's what i mean. you're allowed to say mean. if you're allowed to say men these days anyway, i don't know. guess what going to know. i guess what i'm going to talk okay, go on. on. talk about. okay, go on. go on. this very peculiar this is a very peculiar situation going in wakefield in a school for i've been a school for kids i've been suspend for well doing what suspend did for well doing what to the crowd yeah it's caused absolute outrage among in the
