paper to defend himself. we're going to start seeing all the main protagonists in this drama start throw under start to throw each other under the bus, aren't we? it's like when you arrest a bunch of criminals you the criminals and you have the police and police separate them and get into in i'm enjoying into each other in i'm enjoying this. i can't lie. it's fascinating to see these behind the discussions because fascinating to see these behind th

and schools were closed again. it was a very chaotic period with clearly competing ideas and evidence and cases being put across government. yeah i think you're very generous, tom. when you're very generous, tom. when you say they were fighting for the departments, i would say they were fighting for themselves and what i'm wondering now is the fact that they are out. i have very they are coming out. i have very little sympathy. gavin williamson saying williamson coming out and saying i best, i was i was trying my best, i was trying keep the schools open trying to keep the schools open . always schools . i always felt the schools should be there's going to should be open. there's going to be little sympathy be very little public sympathy for these characters now for some of these characters now saying, oh, well, i always knew i was the wrong thing, but i was doing the wrong thing, but i was doing the wrong thing, but i just do it anyway. i just had to do it anyway. well, suppose within well, i suppose within government you have collective responsibility make the responsibility and you make the case as best you can behind closed but then have to closed doors, but then have to present a united front . and present a united front. and ultimately every minister has to make a judgement call. are they better inside the tent trying to influence policy or outside the tent criticising that policy? but ultimately on able to influence it without a sizeable

parliamentary rebellion or the like , and clearly across many like, and clearly across many different issues , across many different issues, across many different issues, across many different years, people have taken different decisions. gavin williamson this morning saying perhaps he should have resigned, perhaps he should have resigned, perhaps that would moved perhaps that would have moved the needle. well, it was easy, although easy for him to although it's easy for him to say of course, say that. now, of course, because this only a few because this was only a few months the exams scandal months before the exams scandal that in july and august that we saw in july and august of that summer. and then, of course , he was out as education course, he was out as education secretary in september when bofis secretary in september when boris johnson reshuffled the cabinet and on ceremoniously sacked sir gavin . how damaging sacked sir gavin. how damaging is all this for the conservative party right now? it is the front page of the papers again. it's all over the news, as i say. gavin williamson is speaking out. anybody else he's dragged into i'm surprised boris into this? i'm surprised boris johnson hasn't come out more in a less flattering light at the moment. he doesn't seem to be in some of these message threads. still see as much as you might think he would have been given that he's prime minister. no the this the message that this message the message that we're with we're talking about here with regard to matt hancock and gavin

williamson is williamson and that row. this is a message between gavin williamson cabinet williamson and the cabinet secretary reason felt secretary and dan reason felt who he was trying to sort of put the case across to in describing something else that's happened . something else that's happened. we're getting sort of partial accounts all of this, because accounts of all of this, because let's not forget, this is hancock's phone. don't have hancock's phone. we don't have access phones everyone access to the phones of everyone else inquiry might else as the covid inquiry might , or the emails or the minutes of meetings and all the rest of it. so we aren't getting a partial view here. there may partial view here. so there may well been more embarrassing well have been more embarrassing conversations between boris johnson and someone else, but if they weren't had including matt hancock, we won't be seeing them . is interesting looking . but it is interesting looking at role johnson at the role of boris johnson across of the messages that across some of the messages that have been leaked. of the have been leaked. some of the group messages that we have group chat messages that we have seen. group chat messages that we have seen . he seems like a sort of seen. he seems like a sort of cunous seen. he seems like a sort of curious participant asking questions of lots of people at one point posting and article from the et, at one point posting an article from the spectator saying, hang on. the incidence fatality rate is quite low for young people. can we not

make this more voluntary? and then coming back then the scientists coming back and the things you and saying all the things you can really see, the alive discussion and that was being had within government. and the real were being real questions that were being asked as were muddling asked as they were muddling through. was such a novel through. what was such a novel situation? muddling through is certainly the right phrase. tom. i was on whatsapp groups during this had this time which had more scientific rigour some of scientific rigour than some of the messages which are being exchanged between law. exchanged between this law. there yesterday in there was a quote yesterday in one of the whatsapp space from bofis one of the whatsapp space from boris saying risk to boris johnson saying the risk to over covid is not is the over 65 from covid is not is the same falling down the stairs same as falling down the stairs and dying. we don't stop and dying. but we don't stop over climbing stairs . over 65 climbing the stairs. what these messages are raising is who then was putting pressure on them. there are these gaps. it's raising more questions that answers. this is a massive headache for the conservatives now. it's a headache for the conservatives because this was something that sort we all something that sort of we all thought had been put behind us. the conservatives really struggled this time, struggled during this time, as indeed many. you know, tom, somehow , as indeed many somehow, as indeed many governments around the world have we what have struggled. we saw what happened jacinda, done

happened to jacinda, all done just we've seen just recently. we've seen approval for governments approval ratings for governments that sort of trying to that were sort of trying to handle covid very, handle covid have been very, very tricky many countries, very tricky in many countries, but the government but ultimately the government sort itself out of that sort of dug itself out of that hole with what was broadly seen as a very successful and competently delivered vaccine rollout and that ended the lockdowns and sort of we all moved on with our lives . the moved on with our lives. the problem with dragging this all back up again is now people's sort of have at the forefront of their minds the education that their minds the education that their children missed or the exams fast that were going to happen. and then the algorithm and the rest of and sort and all the rest of it and sort of of these sort of horror of all of these sort of horror stories from two years stories from those two years coming to the fore cannot coming back to the fore cannot be good for the government, no, but good for the public. this is what we this is what we what we need. this is what we need. i, one, have gone need. tom, i, for one, have gone from thinking isabel from yesterday thinking isabel oakeshott snake. oakeshott was a complete snake. i think might have just i think she might have just performed act performed the greatest act of pubuc performed the greatest act of public in lifetime. public service in our lifetime. but thank tom. i appreciate but thank you, tom. i appreciate your always. so we your input as always. so as we were discussing then chosen, our schools by schools were affected hugely by lockdown. kingsley is the lockdown. molly kingsley is the

co—founder of for us them. good morning, molly . co—founder of for us them. good morning, molly. i imagine your blood is boiling a little bit this morning as is mine. we have been telling ourselves that the logic behind closing schools when children where it's a negligible risk of getting ill from covid there must have been something that they knew. there must been a reason. there must have been a reason. there must have been a reason. there must something they must have been something they knew it knew that we didn't. it turns out there and we knew out there wasn't. and we knew more than them. your thoughts? yeah mean, i'm yeah no, i mean, i'm incandescent with rage. i'm very sad , actually, because i think sad, actually, because i think these whatsapp messages confirm what many of us had suspected for the best part of three years now that actually children were thrown bus they thrown under the bus and they were under the bus for no were thrown under the bus for no good i think there is good reason. i think there is a callous and really quite shocking flippancy that comes out throughout these messages , out throughout these messages, given the enormity of harm that these men caused . i think, you these men caused. i think, you know , the there are children who know, the there are children who will live with the scars of these decisions. in fact, let's be honest, all our children will live with the scars of these

decisions because of the enormous debt that has been incurred to pay for the decisions. there are decisions. but there are children who will live with the mental and physical scars of these locked down school closure decisions the rest of their decisions for the rest of their aduu decisions for the rest of their adult lives . and it was seen as adult lives. and it was seen as adult lives. and it was seen as a joke by the decision makers or, you know, a sort of man boy walk again, this talk of a rearguard action . and i just rearguard action. and i just think it's staggeringly arrogant. i think it opens the door to a discussion about accountability . actually, accountability. actually, there's been a lot of talk about there's been a lot of talk about the covid inquiry. i think there is obviously an urgent need now to look at what information the covid inquiry is going to get. i mean, as you said, it's done a great service, but these whatsapp messages all refer section of the whatsapp messages . they won't include anything. obviously not from that. hancock, hancock. and we know that there are some decision as very egregious that were taken after matt left as health secretary. these need to all be

in the public domain, all the communications, organs and personally , i would say that personally, i would say that some of the decisions look so outlandish and based on such a lack of evidence, one has to ask about criminal liability. don't wait . yeah, i think we really wait. yeah, i think we really do. and what transpires, molly, is that there's a there's a huge amount of preoccupation with what will the public think of us and how will this come across to the public a complete disconnect with how actually vast swathes of the public were feeling about the fact that children were off school . and also what comes school. and also what comes across in the messages is very much what came across in some of the behaviour of some of the politicians at the time is that they weren't frightened of covid, they weren't frightened of covm, they they weren't frightened of covid, they weren't frightened of the way that the of covid in the way that the pubuc of covid in the way that the public when were public were when they were having parties and cheese and wine gatherings and whatever it was. of was. our own prime minister of course, got penalty notice for course, got a penalty notice for performing guys were not performing these guys were not scared of covid when the public was terrified and there are huge

questions to be asked about how that allowed to happen. that was allowed to happen. molly are at with the molly where are we at with the covid inquiry still covid inquiry now? it's still delayed redactions . i delayed because of redactions. i believe it's still delayed on. i mean, it seems that they will only it's still delayed. they the participants seem at the moment to be skew towards those with a lockdown position to uphold. so government departments and people and advisers like imperial college, like members of ice age that have been very , very vocal on have been very, very vocal on the need to lockdown harder and faster . it doesn't seem that the faster. it doesn't seem that the inquiry is going to look at the core question should we have locked down all the population at all? i hope it does. i hope i'm wrong in that. but at the moment, looking at the list of participants, it's not obvious who is going to ask those kind of questions. and i think just stepping you know, stepping back, that, you know, we've an issue, we've got we've got an issue, haven't we? because if it's obvious seems to be, obvious, as it now seems to be, that actually a large part of key pandemic decisions were being carried out in this very

informal way over whatsapp and presumably other equivalent messaging services. does the inquiry have access to those because if not, it should be able to do an inquiry that precedes only on the basis of partial information will be worse than useless. it will be dangerous and it will be a grotesque waste of public money to add to the already grotesque waste of public money over the last few years. so let's let's scrap that as a plan if that is the current plan or let's give the current plan or let's give the inquiry the powers it needs to get over the whatsapp messages of every minister involved in these atrocious decisions of the last three years. okay. all right . thank years. okay. all right. thank you so much for as. okay, there's a lot of ground things to be done today. molly there from ls for them the logic to kick back is saying isabel oakeshott has a had a lock down agenda. oakeshott has a had a lock down agenda . what do they even mean agenda. what do they even mean by that. she's just like all of us been asking questions for three and we want answers three years and we want answers . me know you think. . let me know what you think. gbviews@gbnews.uk so moving on, the remains of a baby's body

have found following have been found following a massive search by police for the missing child of constance martin and mark gordon. the couple face further couple will face further questions today after a magistrate granted police permission hold for permission to hold them for another 36 our national another 36 hours. our national reporter ellie costello joins us from brighton now. good morning , ali. what's the latest there? what a sad and this tale . it what a sad and this tale. it really is. it's not the outcome that anyone wanted and it's really shocked the community here. you might be able to make out over my shoulder here, there are flowers that have been left by this police cordon and candles that have been lit as well off the news that the remains of a baby has been found in woodland close to where constance martin was arrested, along with mark gordon on monday evening. now, there is going to be a postmortem examination to determine exactly how that child died. and there will also be a forensic test to establish that thatis forensic test to establish that that is mark gordon's and constant . it's martin's baby .

constant. it's martin's baby. now, the police have been granted an additional 36 hours in which to question the couple. they are currently being held on suspicion of gross negligence. mans slaughter. but you might be able to work out behind me there is still a heavy police presence here and teams are working hard to the evidence of to comb through the evidence of what is now a crime scene. and this has been a seven week hunt for mark gordon and constance marten after that car was found burnt out in the m61 near bolton on the 5th of january. they've been spotted deceased tv across the uk and they're also spotted buying camping gear in east london and that concerned officers, they were worried that this couple were looking to live off grid with this newborn baby who had not been seen by medical professionals since it was born in early january. well, then the couple were spotted by the pubuc couple were spotted by the public here in brighton on monday evening . they alerted the monday evening. they alerted the police who were on the scene in minutes, but that baby was not

where the constance martin. so that really raised concerns. it's been a huge manhunt underway for the past two and a half days involving over 200 officers. and unfortunately, last night we did get that news that the remains of an infant have been found close to where the couple were arrested. and that investigation does continue . okay. thank you, ellie ellie costello there in brighton. all right. still to come this morning, kira an which was morning, the kira an which was damaged at a school in yorkshire. well, it's been recorded as a hate incident by the police. we're going to get into that in 2 minutes. in into that in just 2 minutes. in a bit .

masks in school after boris johnson said that he wanted to basically do better than nicola sturgeon. i'm going to talk about that with narinder kaur and host of reason uk. geoff gallop is also here with me this morning. right. morning, ladies . let's talk about these messages leaked by isabel oakeshott's. you were a bit like me, narinder, in that you had some serious questions about the logic of lockdowns and the policies which affected our children. yeah, i was mad about it all. i wasn't angry with my children . suffered the children. suffered the education, , as everyone education, suffered, as everyone said. and i was mad at the time. and this doesn't make sense. where the logic? show me the where is the logic? show me the evidence course, is evidence. so this, of course, is proven or . evidence. so this, of course, is proven or. but evidence. so this, of course, is proven or . but still proven it or. but i've still got. is i. do you feel got. why is i. do you feel hancock is being made an example of when everyone was guilty? there's lot people guilty , there's a lot of people guilty, including public . the public including the public. the public were begging for more. they wanted more. i remember. i remember when i used to say how long you can't keep locking schools said, no, schools down. and they said, no, no, can't. complicated must

no, you can't. complicated must no, you can't. complicated must no in mass. no, but no. put kids in mass. no, but that because people were that was because people were genuinely frightened. and like even though you was even though i let you was questioning and was massively questioning and i was massively questioning and i was massively questioning the decisions questioning all the decisions and logic , i couldn't and why the logic, i couldn't see reason for i was see any reason for it. i was hoping these messages might prove was genuinely prove me wrong. i was genuinely hoping wrong. hoping they proved me wrong. they've entirely right they've put me entirely right and but and fully vindicated, but people's real . we do people's fear was real. we do have to remember that . and what have to remember that. and what i'm now happens from this i'm hoping now happens from this is that people realised they didn't reason to be as didn't have any reason to be as frightened as they oh, frightened as they were. oh, that doesn't make me feel bad. that make feel better to that does make me feel better to actually walk this way . i feel actually walk this way. i feel a i think it's a bit naughty of it. i think it's really nasty actually to just think, okay, he gave these messages . if i don't gave these messages. if i don't get my messages in trust to write a book and then she goes and licks them all, i think that's duty. that's duty . but is that's duty. that's duty. but is it not? an act suggests of national public interest? i think what she's done will shift the dial. some people change the conversation on that. that's dr. steve james being interviewed,

to talking sajid javid in the hospital for remembering kings. and when steve james said, i don't want a vaccine mandate, that changed the conversation. it changed the dial. this is doing that. so why do we need it, don't we? oh, yeah, absolutely. i think what she did was great for the british people. there's a difference between about between being scared about covid. about covid. everyone had fears about covid. everyone had fears about covid. difference covid. well, there's difference between these between that and false in these draconian for us having draconian for all us having rules country . i draconian for all us having rules country. i mean, rules among the country. i mean, matt hancock did this on a whim . he was afraid to bottle nicola sturgeon on this. politicians are have debates. this is are meant have debates. this is absolutely ridiculous. yeah, a lot these messages are in the lot of these messages are in the show this year. matt show again this year. matt hancock is being very thin skinned, looking for approval just like he was in the jungle. i mean, he realised that he was what he was in the jungle is how he in office. people like he was in office. people like that shouldn't in office yet, that shouldn't be in office yet, but other people in but then the other people in office been office should have been questioning we've got questioning him. and we've got that's what we have prime minister questions that's minister questions and that's what we've got westminster for is to question our employees of their question the rules their to question the rules they're making. but no one question these so question these rules. so everyone's guilty.

everyone's everyone's guilty. don't hancock the don't just make matt hancock the doormat of this. and, you doormat of all of this. and, you know human. these know what? he's human. these rules, around the rules, we're going around the world they have world and they shouldn't have been evidence for been there was no evidence for masks, having to wear masks, kids having to wear masks. and they were just like, actually, know what? not actually, you know what? not enough not enough evidence to not not enough evidence to not not enough masks, enough evidence to wear masks, just masks. it's just put them in masks. it's just put them in masks. it's just wrong. the damage is done, though but you know though. they are. but you know what? they all what wokeist to me are valueless. where me is there are valueless. where are the vile values? like where is the value set that united are the vile values? like where is the individualshat united are the vile values? like where is the individuals makingzd are the vile values? like where is the individuals making these these individuals making these huge decisions about prioritising children , sticking prioritising children, sticking by medical ethics ? you know, by medical ethics? you know, there's some valueless sort of decomposing salad of a stench spilling out on to all of us. it's better than they could win, because if they weren't protecting elderly, then protecting elderly, then protecting the children. if they're protecting the children that we're protecting, there was no and it was just blind no winning and it was just blind leading blind , leading leading the blind, leading the dome. and no questioned dome. and no one questioned other actually you. other than actually you. beverley. well, one of the very few people thank you very much and will take that. know

and i will take that. you know what? and also the i do find it ironic that the national newspaper that was very much asking more more lockdown asking for more more lockdown restrictions is now asking these questions. all these papers jumping on saying like, jumping on this now saying like, where you? where you where were you? where were you for half years when for two and a half years when this channel was the only place asking these sorts of questions for of the british for the sake of the british pubuc for the sake of the british public people? public and the british people? right. so we move on. otherwise, i'm have an absolute i'm going to have an absolute gotcha . this story is . gotcha right. this story is. yeah, the current story . yeah, yeah, the current story. yeah, right. boy, you accidentally dropped a copy of the koran at wakefield school , received death wakefield school, received death threats. what happened there? and okay, so he was told to bnngin and okay, so he was told to bring in this book as a fool for fate. why i mean, i know he's he's got autism . we have to he's got autism. we have to forgive. i'm sure the muslim community are forgiving enough to know that actually this boy is he bought book is autistic. he bought the book and is forfeit. why why was and is a forfeit. why why was a religious book used as a forfeit ? there's a lot of questions involved. it's not as simple as an autistic boy just dropped it and an accident. it's not and it was an accident. it's not as as that does seem to

in manchester for us this . good in manchester for us this. good morning sophie there at the steps of the manchester arena where this awful atrocity took place. and remind us what happened. it's a few years ago now this inquiry seems to be extremely thorough . good morning extremely thorough. good morning to you. but yes, it's absolutely a long time ago and it's been very thorough it's almost six years now since that attack on the 22nd of may in 2017. you mentioned that this is the third and final volume of the manchester arena inquiry that's going to be published this afternoon. it's a widely accepted fact. how thorough it has been, but also how necessary is too identify the key failures from that night and to prevent anything like this from happening again. the first part of the inquiry was published all the way back in june of 2021. that took in the failures of the arena itself, that took in the failures of the arena itself , the threat level arena itself, the threat level for terrorism at that time was severe, and the report found that the arena was just not. the

second part of the inquiry was published in november of last year that considered the failures of the various emergency services . in fact, it emergency services. in fact, it found that if they had better prepared, one of the 22 killed would probably survived. now, this afternoon , we're expecting this afternoon, we're expecting the publication of the third volume of the that is focusing, as you say , that on the as you say, that on the radicalisation of salman abedi and exactly what was known ahead of the attack and whether or not it could have been prevented. now of course this time is of yearis now of course this time is of year is always so difficult for the families of victims and the survivors of the attack. earlier this week i caught up with feig and murray, mother of martin hatch, who was one of the 22 killed in the attack . here's killed in the attack. here's what she had to say about life after the death of her . son after the death of her. son i remember my daughter waking me up and then it all crazy from

there on, really ? yeah and we there on, really? yeah and we got phone calls and text messages . got phone calls and text messages. his friends who were with him at the time, they all got out. but there were desperately looking for martin on may 22nd, 2017, suicide bomber salman abedi detonate , an bomber salman abedi detonate, an explosive device at manchester arena, taking the lives of 22 people. fegan 29 year old son matt , in people. fegan 29 year old son matt, in which just one of those killed today. the third volume of the manchester arena inquiry turns its focus to radicalisation and how this tragedy could have been prevented. what's your reaction to all of this ? how did you feel to all of this? how did you feel after all of those failings right from the word go, i have never really been angry. the only emotion i've ever felt right from the start is sadness. everybody who's made a mistake is aware. they made a mistake. and my view is that those people

have to look in the mirror every morning with that on their conscience . you know, that's conscience. you know, that's a difficult thing to do. mistakes were made. yes, but apologies, the sincere , in my opinion and the sincere, in my opinion and l, the sincere, in my opinion and i, for one, accept those apologies. in fact , rather than apologies. in fact, rather than feeling anger , fegan has feeling anger, fegan has channelled the loss of her son into something that could potentially save the lives of others. martyn's law is a legislation that we are asking the government to put to in have security at venues because up to this point, actually there is no legislation to keep people safe and venue. it's an option for the moment . obviously, it's too the moment. obviously, it's too late for martin, but for the children , i've got grandkids and children, i've got grandkids and i want my family and i want everybody in this country to be able to go out and enjoy themselves. but still come home at night . sophie reaper. gb news

at night. sophie reaper. gb news well , we heard that fagan well, we heard that fagan accepts the apologies of the various he made failures on that night. it's quite unusual response. over the years we've spoken to various survivors and families to victims, and they don't necessarily share her accept sense of apologies, but i think one thing that everyone involved in this can agree on is the absolute necessary nature of the absolute necessary nature of the inquiry . the absolute necessary nature of the inquiry. in order to identify those key failures and to prevent anything like this from ever happening again . okay. from ever happening again. okay. thank you, sophie. great job. so if you keep that up in manchester. okay. still to come this morning, more lockdown leaks have been revealed. matt hancock very hancock allegedly tried very hard to shut down schools during the pandemic. gavin williamson was against it. we're going to be talking about that in a moment. but first of all, the sussexes have been definitely asked vacate their windsor asked to vacate their windsor home. speculate home. we will speculate to yesterday. this happen and yesterday. this might happen and i'm joined by i'm pleased. we're joined by

story. is common story. this is common prevailing, it? think prevailing, isn't it? i think it's a step right it's a step in the right direction, although the nhs direction, although with the nhs and in general and mental health in general it's failed. many it's completely failed. so many people across the country. i mean personally of my own experiences with mental health as young going through as a young person going through come of some come as a child of some adolescent mental health services, were completely services, they were completely they said if you're as long as you're not going to kill yourself, we're going to discharge you. we need to support and destigmatize support people and destigmatize mental health. but do you think what i love about this is a saying every one for adults are prescribed potentially addictive drugs, sleeping pills, painkillers , benzodiazepines , painkillers, benzodiazepines, valium for anxiety . and now valium for anxiety. and now they're going to cut back on that. and say we will we will implement more non therapeutic methods, non pharmacists , school methods, non pharmacists, school interventions. that's that's great isn't it. i think people need more community need more stability in their lives, which isn't just a doctor going, you know , hey, here's some medicine know, hey, here's some medicine heads, help me for your problems . i think them finding more balance in their life is a

completely good thing. i can do and all can make me really depressed. that need to take an antidepressant. if the doctor said go and paint somewhere, i'll i'll be so depressed i'll be i'll be so depressed i'll be i'll be so depressed i'll stop talking long enough. yeah. i was on yeah. no to that. when i was on deep my deep depression, after my brother yeah, i was brother passed away. yeah, i was on them. i don't really helped massively and then i came off the graph. i know people who've been on anti—depressants for 13, 14, 15 years and they depend on them. so just to take them off , them. so just to take them off, i think they just need to replace the problem . but opioids replace the problem. but opioids all and, you know, diazepam, all of them, they are highly addictive . so there is a reason addictive. so there is a reason why the doctors need to get them. these people need to find them. these people need to find the things. but i don't about art but but it is costing i mean it was 8.4 million adults in england were prescribed anti depressants this past year , 8.4 depressants this past year, 8.4 million or depressed, 23% of women take antidepressants and 12% of men there clearly is a place at a time and a place for them, as you say. you know , so

them, as you say. you know, so much of modern life is are set up to help us not be depressed, is it? that's part the problem. i always think, you know, if my think if you know if i was struggling i think with mood i would go, oh, am i getting enough sleep? i getting enough sleep? am i getting properly? spending much enough sleep? am i getting propeon? spending much enough sleep? am i getting propeon tech. spending much enough sleep? am i getting propeon tech. am 1ding much enough sleep? am i getting propeon tech. am iiing much enough sleep? am i getting propeon tech. am i getting much enough sleep? am i getting propeon tech. am i getting some time on tech. am i getting some fresh air with some exercise? and if i take all those off, and if i take it all those off, then i could probably go, okay, well, need a more well, maybe i need a bit more help. that we're going help. is that where we're going wrong? a bit, yes. we don't start to look at ourselves kind of with so quick of holistically with so quick to go for tablets. think there go for tablets. i think there are many things life like are so many things in life like lockdown. help social lockdown. did it help social media doesn't help media really doesn't help endlessly sex like endlessly swiping on sex like all day that really doesn't help. think people need to help. and i think people need to spend time with their spend more time with their family with family spend more time with their as you said, their friends. as you said, healthy healthy. healthy sleeping, healthy. all these people don't these things that people don't consider going these things that people don't co the er going these things that people don't co the doctor going these things that people don't co the doctor first. going these things that people don't co the doctor first. when going to the doctor first. when reality starts tidying reality it starts just tidying your own room. can help you, right? not for a run. go right? oh, not go for a run. go for a run. go for a run. and for a run. i go for a run. and i think, yeah, you know, i feel bad after that and people don't do that. my sister has a go go for run . i'm

do that. my sister has a go go for run. i'm not to do for a run. i'm not going to do that. you feel better? yeah. that. and you feel better? yeah. so people just think so people do. i just think people. but people do need to as well. partly they are in dire straits acutely. there are times aren't it definitely aren't there, when it definitely is can be lifesaving . let me is can be lifesaving. let me know what you think, won't you ? know what you think, won't you? this morning gb views gb news dot uk . we're going to go into dot uk. we're going to go into another story now we've got childcare costs . ladies, let's childcare costs. ladies, let's have a chat about this. yeah so this is a this is a report in the paper today saying that actually many women and again, a lot of it annoyed about the fact that we talk about women in this regard, because two people create to create these children pay to work as childcare costs. so one in ten parents think you are effectively paying to work by spending their entire take home pay spending their entire take home pay more on rising childcare costs , new research has costs, new research has revealed. well, that's always been the story. now, when my kids were little i couldn't there was no put me work in because when we worked it out all of money would go on all of my money would go on childcare costs. worth childcare costs. it wasn't worth it. it then? was it a

it. why do it then? was it a conversation between you and your partner then to say, well, maybe you stay home? maybe you should stay at home? well what? we had an well you know what? we had an argument that believed or argument that they believed or not row with my not had a big row with my husband. were husband. and then we were talking about if we got divorced husband. and then we were talk i g about if we got divorced husband. and then we were talki said,yut if we got divorced husband. and then we were talki said, you: we got divorced husband. and then we were talki said, you were |ot divorced husband. and then we were talki said, you were allowed:ed husband. and then we were talki said, you were allowed to and i said, you were allowed to have a career because i stayed at home looking after your children 12, 13 years. children for ten, 12, 13 years. well in career. and well ahead in your career. and you i paid all the you said, but i paid all the bills, i all the mortgage. bills, i paid all the mortgage. i all that because i said i paid all that because i said i'm looking after the kids. oh, yes. you've got all this look forward i make and forward to and i make and motherhood. matchmaker motherhood. so i'm a matchmaker 80. it's one thing i guess it hasn't come across your desk. yes. in life but if we don't wait it's not a fair society, is it? where is if as parents, we all kind of agree that we need to have children that children are quite handy for the future and keep her keep us all looked after in our old age. we do need children to be born, but we shouldn't still penalising parents they have them, parents once they have them, should we're just should we? i mean, we're just penalising all way penalising parents all the way through, a house and through, even to get a house and be stable is be financially stable is a challenge itself. mind challenge in itself. never mind having children . i mean, my

having the children. i mean, my sister's 30. she's just now starting to be able to afford a house, settle down with her partner , when in reality my mum partner, when in reality my mum had child , she had two had a child, she had two children at like 29. you know, so that can complete , i think a so that can complete, i think a lot of reason . the biggest lot of reason. the biggest reason for that is because people can't afford it. i think people can't afford it. i think people want cecil don't want to have children, but that's not a possibility for people of my generation. and that's really bleak . it says here, poverty bleak. it says here, poverty full time nursery fees for a child under two in the uk costs an average of around £13,000. if you more than half the take home pay you more than half the take home pay of a typical £33,000 salary, according to a recent analysis. i mean, come on, £13,000 a year for childcare costs. how the government want people to be going back to work. we've got a labour shortage . how do they get labour shortage. how do they get people back to work ? more people back to work? more creative ways of solving this problem , but must be more problem, but there must be more creative ways of doing this because actually grandparents are in a lot. now,

are stepping in a lot. now, i know in their retirement they're retired and they're being but i think most, most parents ideally you'd want if you can make it work, you want a member of your family looking after your children, maybe if you have a good relationship your good relationship with your or with grandparents. maybe with the grandparents. so maybe there sort of tax there should be some sort of tax breaks encourage kind of breaks to encourage that kind of family oh, maybe work. family support. oh, maybe work. they have nurseries. they should have nurseries. i don't very hard don't know. it's just very hard because they do want to work. mums and dads, they want to work, they're unable work, but they're unable to because a and then because £13,000 a year and then we've a cost of living we've got a cost of living crisis, bills , crisis, more energy bills, mortgages, tax rises, also more than a quarter of people, parents working. we're paying or paying parents working. we're paying or paying 75% of their pay towards childcare. and a fifth paid more than half that. there's just stunning numbers , isn't it? we stunning numbers, isn't it? we continue . we've got a labour continue. we've got a labour shortage. we need people back at work. yeah, absolutely. we just want to correct what was said a little bit earlier about prince andrew. the allegations that were made against him are unfounded . i said alleged to

unfounded. i said alleged to deny that's the end of first houn deny that's the end of first hour. i'm next. we'll be talking more about the whatsapp messages from said there had from matt hancock said there had been a betrayal breach of been a betrayal and breach of trust journalist isabel trust by the journalist isabel oakeshott. you see it like oakeshott. do you see it like that hello alex deakin here that? hello alex deakin here with your latest weather . most with your latest weather. most places having a dry day today, but there are a few showers across parts of and across parts of scotland and northern ireland. southern areas enjoying the sunniest skies, still pretty chilly still feeling pretty chilly where it stays grey, high pressure is dominating around the area of pressure. the winds go so feeding in a cloud and a few showers from the north into parts of eastern scots and a few for the east of northern ireland as well. so showers continuing in southern scotland, but generally elsewhere, it's dry quite a lot of cloud for scotland. northern england and eastern england, but some spells of sunshine for southern england and south wales after the breeze here. pretty pleasant with temperatures perhaps up to 11 celsius where it stays drab seven or eight, we'll feel pretty chilly. should see some good of sunshine again, good spells of sunshine again, of course, westernmost parts of

the journalists who leaked the messages. isabel oakeshott , what messages. isabel oakeshott, what she writes. to do this well joining me now is tom harwood and also lawyer andrew abel . and also lawyer andrew abel. right, tom, anything happened since i spoke to you earlier? is this moving on. there must be a lot head scratching going on lot of head scratching going on behind now. i behind the scenes now. i bet matt got his team matt hancock's got his pr team working very to work out working very hard to work out how handle this next. well, how to handle this next. well, of course, had a statement how to handle this next. well, of co angle had a statement how to handle this next. well, of co angle a had a statement how to handle this next. well, of co angle a little) statement how to handle this next. well, of co angle a little bitatement how to handle this next. well, of co angle a little bit earliert from angle a little bit earlier this matt hancock this morning where matt hancock was pushing back against was really pushing back against some claims have been some of these claims have been made isabel oakeshott , who made by isabel oakeshott, who appeared on the this appeared on the radio this morning that morning to say that a threatening message had been sent to her by matt hancock in the early hours of the morning yesterday , sort of as the story yesterday, sort of as the story was breaking. he pushed back against that, saying, no, it wasn't a threatening message . it wasn't a threatening message. it wasn't a threatening message. it was a frustrated message because, of course, he felt that she had broken his confidence, that non—disclosure agreement that non—disclosure agreement that had been signed and then broken. but i think the biggest point that will be going on today throughout this morning

and afternoon will all of these people who know that they've texted matt hancock over the course of the last two, three years. are you one of them. and i think i. i am fairly confident that i will not be involved in it. now, if matt hancock special advisers had that phrase leaks, i would be worried. but i, i think i'm in the clear. isabel oakeshott no , no. i mean, look, oakeshott no, no. i mean, look, we're joking about it, but there is it's a really there are some serious revelations coming out . serious revelations coming out. but also, andrew bolt, i'm fascinated to know, where does isabel stand on a leak? it's really fast. i could hear the whooping coming from your home in regent's park yesterday as it broke. and what i quite like well matt in the cartoon well is matt in the cartoon today always brilliant. he was sort of saying wonderful cartoon. terrifying easily. cartoon. it's terrifying easily. whatsapp pass from whatsapp messages can pass from person to person . he's brilliant person to person. he's brilliant matt and the legal position is this and it's very very important as two issues here. one, as tom rightly said, there's an nda, a non—disclosure agreement which isobel's signed when working . matt on

when she was working. matt on the the idea was certain the book, the idea was certain information was passed in confidence what that gives whatever right some wrongs whatever the right some wrongs about content what it is about the content what it is matched the right to sue her for damages for loss that he suffered it's breach of that particular contract. he could also injunction. i'll be also get an injunction. i'll be surprised injunctions surprised if more injunctions lawyers busying themselves behind the scenes we speak to behind the scenes as we speak to stop this relevant disclosure . stop this relevant disclosure. but also in addition to the breach of contract nda, that's copyright now you might copyright law. now you might remember meghan markle against associated yet again associated newspapers yet again . it was to do with the publication of her letter to her father. now were to. so father. now they were to. so that was privacy . they that one was about privacy. they gave pound and all the gave a pound and all the newspapers contradict concentrate bit. concentrate on that bit. the biggest she got biggest bit where she got substantial damages settled was the infringement . and the copyright infringement. and as the writer observed, what you get copyright, means you get copyright, which means you can unauthorised disclosure can the unauthorised disclosure and reproduction of those works so you wouldn't have copyright over your whatsapp, would you? you absolutely everything . you do absolutely everything. you do absolutely everything. you get and i always you write, you get and i always tell repeats tell people history repeats itself i'm people and the reason

itself i'm people and the reason it repeats is because people don't learn the lessons from history. everything write everything say will get everything you say will get disclosed to people you don't want disclosed to. but you want to be disclosed to. but you do have rights. you have copyright issues anything copyright issues in anything that in a recorded that you write in a recorded thing. i mean, the thing. i mean, look, the telegraph is obviously incredibly of this, and telegraph also , of course, telegraph will also, of course, the that released the the newspaper that released the expenses scandal, scandal information ten years ago, something like that, you were primary school and i'm not even joking but they are very keen to point out the lock down files reporting team and they have a big long list of journalists names on the by—lines on this article . the telegraph obviously article. the telegraph obviously will have been had this scrutinised by their legal yeah. to the most. they must feel safe publishing this people associated newspapers in court all the time on that subject . it all the time on that subject. it doesn't get around the law. the law is very simple, but it has to be for copyright to be a substantial reproduction of the same. if you just want to reproduce what behind scenes reproduce what behind the scenes it's. but the breach of the nda

. i'll be very interesting to see what matt does with this, but also we just spoke about a couple days ago on this couple of days ago on this glorious show. glorious wonderful show. we talked green talked the launch of green hazel, his production, which he's generate he's hoping will generate millions there's millions for him if there's damage . as a he could damage. as a result, he could claim further loss of earnings in all sorts of things he can come up with interesting come up with an interesting claim. move which might claim. it's an move which might well ultimately this might be wise commercial decision from the . they might have the telegraph. they might have calculated to take a calculated we're going to take a certain of hit. my certain amount of hit. but my gosh. we going to sell a lot gosh. are we going to sell a lot of absolutely right. of these. absolutely right. absolutely. just tom absolutely. let me just ask tom whether is a good or bad whether this is a good or bad thing for richard tice in the reform party, for anybody who doesn't . richard tice, the doesn't. richard tice, the leader of the reform party is i always want to say married to isabella, but to all intents and purposes, they're in a very serious long term relationship. a lot of people are saying what isabella's done here is give reform. that little push towards the because is the next election, because is cast as an arbiter of truth and honesty and transparency in

opposition to the conservatives when it play like that. i think it's really interesting with reform because it doesn't have the same recognition name wise that sort of the ukip of the past or certainly the brexit did with reform uk because it sort of evolved from the brexit party, rebranded changed name in most focus groups , most polls most focus groups, most polls people aren't quite sure what it is. it hasn't had that penetration building of the kind of people that spend their lives watching news or perhaps have twitter accounts . we can't twitter accounts. we can't forget that most of the country don't and that's the big hurdle that they've had so far . there that they've had so far. there have been some polls that have put them ahead of the green party. have been of polls party. there have been of polls actually recently that have got them leapfrogging green them leapfrogging the green party, with the party, catching up with the liberal democrats. some polls put six, 7, which is put them on six, 7, which is certainly an increase from where they were a year ago. but to be considered that sort of major, that would have a positive knock on effect from a big story. i don't think that they're quite there yet because of course, in

these stories that everyone across the country will have heard about that matt hancock got his messages i'm not got his messages leaked. i'm not sure that would flow. sure that from that would flow. and who leaked them and the person who leaked them is in a relationship with the guy that leads a party that i've never heard of. yes, it might be a bit of a leap of faith. it is a bit of a leap of faith. it is a bit of a leap of faith. it is a bit tangential, isn't it? but interesting, interesting. if they're playing the long game, a lot of know who the lot of people know who the reform are today reform party are today that didn't who were didn't know who they were yesterday. joining now yesterday. right. joining me now is diagnostic and is diagnostic pathologist and co—chair dr. co—chair of the heart, dr. claire , who we spoke to claire craig, who we spoke to yesterday. good morning , claire. yesterday. good morning, claire. so yesterday when these so we spoke yesterday when these whatsapp message revelations came out about the fact that matt hancock hadn't insisted testing people before they went into care. and actually some people surprised people would have been surprised . that were actually in . know that you were actually in agreement hancock agreement with matt hancock that might had might that might have had limited are your limited benefit what are your takes what is your take today on the decisions that were made around closing under the auspices of minimising infection . so today i'm defending gavin

williamson because he was saying that should have kept them open. but what i think the underlying issue is we need listen to the conversation . matt hancock and conversation. matt hancock and gavin williamson , the underlying gavin williamson, the underlying driver for that making was the teachers were saying and what the teachers were saying was based on the fact that the teachers had been scared and they had been because the government nudging it had decided that they had to increase the perceived personal threat using , hard hitting, threat using, hard hitting, emotional . threat using, hard hitting, emotional. so threat using, hard hitting, emotional . so whoever made that emotional. so whoever made that decision , it's really the that's decision, it's really the that's the underlying responsibility for schools shot and the point the really important point to make is that when you look at infections in children over time infections in children over time in september of 2020 when schools went back there was no increase in infections in children . in january 2021, when children. in january 2021, when was a surge in the community. but schools were shut, there was an increase in infections in

children and then they went back to school in march 2021 and there was no increase in infections in children. and that's was driving that's because what was driving the community spread that was causing these children to have the community spread that was causspread se children to have the community spread that was causspread throughren to have the community spread that was causspread through the to have the community spread that was causspread through the air. ave the community spread that was causspread through the air. so was spread through the air. so even though you can catch it with close contact, the wider of these waves is spread through these waves is spread through the air. and so opening and shutting schools, making a difference. in meantime, the difference. and in meantime, the children's commissioner and longfield, she had been speaking out throughout . spring 2020 and out throughout. spring 2020 and onwards, trying to defend the most vulnerable children who were going to be the most impacted by these school closures. shout thing about the fact that legislation around protecting these children was being weakened instead of strengthened the very time when the resources they needed were being withdrawn and she was ignored she was ignored throughout that time. all of the damage was done. we had that report from great ormond street about the increase in child abuse. and they did it abuse. and then they did it again in the winter it's an emotional day, claire. actually

isn't it for the likes of you and i who've been trying to have our voices heard to ask these questions to receive some answers is how can you describe it emotionally how you feeling about these revelations today ? about these revelations today? well it's a funny sort of a feeling because it feels like we're rehashing old argument today. there are still people saying, well, if only we had had more restrictions , schools could more restrictions, schools could have stayed open , know how have have stayed open, know how have we got to, you know, two years in and people are still not understanding the fundamental issues here. the around it being wrong to school shut schools fundamentally because of the service they provide for children which is much much wider than education but also they believe that the more we restrict that, the fewer restrictions we need, which is the most contradictory odd thing to say in the first place. but people are still hanging on to that belief , people are still hanging on to that belief, presumably because they want to justify what they did and what they stood by the

time and that is understandable. claire isn't it? it is understandable when we've been through so enormous as a country and it affected every single family in the country in various different ways, predominant in negative ways . molly kingsley negative ways. molly kingsley from us for them was on the show earlier this morning she's obviously been contributing her advice from her organise in to the baroness hallett a covid inquiry. molly said this morning on this show. she thinks the whole thing should be ripped up and started again with a different terms of references due to these revelations in these whatsapp messages. do you agree with her? i mean, i have been a bit disappointed by the pubuc been a bit disappointed by the public inquiry. been a bit disappointed by the public inquiry . the draft terms public inquiry. the draft terms of references were not broad enough. they showed a clear biased. and when we were submitting we submitted long documents to show how these terms of reference should be expanded. it doesn't feel like they were really expanded enough and the signs, anything else? it feels like this public inquiry

is destined to take years and years, which is not good enough because harms that would because the harms that would need to be rectified now and the mistakes that were made there need to be things in place to stop them happening again as soon possible . yeah, okay. soon as possible. yeah, okay. yes, i, i'm disappointed by the pubuc yes, i, i'm disappointed by the public inquiry and i'm and i'm worried that the right voices on all voices won't be properly heard. yeah okay. thank you, claire. dr. clarke . craig. so claire. dr. clarke. craig. so essex police have announced that the remains of a baby's body have been found following a massive search for the missing child constance and child of constance marten and marc was found marc gordon. the body was found close where constance and close to where constance and marc arrested on monday marc were arrested on monday night. meanwhile post—mortem will carried a couple will be carried out. a couple will be carried out. a couple will further questions will face further questions today granted police today after granted police permission hold for another permission to hold for another 3 hours. let's to our gb news national reporter ellie costello now down in brighton . good now down in brighton. good morning, ellie. what's the latest now? good morning to you. have clearly this was not the outcome that anyone wanted in

gross negligence manslaughter. now teams, as you can see behind me, there are still a heavy police presence here and teams are continuing to comb through the evidence of what is now a crime scene. now, this all started seven weeks ago when constance marten and mark gordon's car was found burnt on the m61 near bolton. and then the m61 near bolton. and then the couple were seen with a newborn baby, which police believe was actually born in the back of that vehicle or very close to it. they were seen on cctv across the uk and liverpool , essex and in, and officers were particularly concerned when the couple was seen camping gear in east london on the 7th of january area. that sparked a manhunt for them the couple were arrested on monday evening without that newborn baby and since then there's been an operation underway with over 200 officers to try and find that baby. but before that, very sad news that the remains of an infant have been found near the spot the couple were arrested

medical gowns. oh, my goodness. now however, there's nothing in to her name. not why she didn't declare it in the house of lords. there's nothing. they've put her name out of it other than this trust that was set up for a kids for 30 million. i mean, the rich have it great and we just come in suffering because, you know what? can you can beverly? can this been proven, beverly? well, let's hope somebody is going into and try going to look into it and try and i mean, one of the and prove it. i mean, one of the things the covid inquiry must do is to look at these procurement contracts. who in the right, contracts. who was in the right, who in the wrong, this vip who was in the wrong, this vip lane, suddenly appears to lane, which suddenly appears to have a conservative have been a lot of conservative mates up companies that mates setting up companies that weren't profitable before, didn't this. didn't even exist before this. it's just just it's like they just it just smells opportunity is smells an opportunity is a shame. apparently . shame. well, apparently. shouldn't they? absolutely mean politics. politicians being in anything. and this is why we need to give more power to the people. as i was saying before, i don't believe the should have had any stake in lockdown because of corruptions like this. have highest tax this. we have the highest tax burden years. i wonder burden over 70 years. i wonder when million pound when these million pound contract are going out. where

did you completely. contract are going out. where did you completely . well. might did you completely. well. might be . yeah. yeah, it is. be corrupt. yeah. yeah, it is. it's awful . right. let's move on it's awful. right. let's move on to this is it's such a sad story . kayleigh, tit for it was the daughter she was a woman. 16 years old, who weighed three stone, almost a bmi of seven says she died in october 2020. and her mother, sarah lloyd jones, admitted manslaughter by gross neglect. and her father alan tit four denied charges. but was found guilty after a trial that got sentenced yesterday. this basically this this poor young girl daughter. she died . her body was being she died. her body was being consumed by maggots. this is really graphic stuff. and she . really graphic stuff. and she. she was incredibly she lived in squalor and degradation . she was squalor and degradation. she was sending messages to her parents when she was dying to . can you when she was dying to. can you help me? and there was messages coming back from her mother

saying she said, you know , there saying she said, you know, there there were flies on on her body eating her and her mum said maybe the flies like you love the sausage. i just you know, there's so much to . dreadful there's so much to. dreadful have actually seen the video of bedroom it's awful. don't even watch it now the thing is they were okay before covid there's a lot of things to look at. there's that they were okay. they were happy family. they were due and covid were looking after due and covid is happened and is when the demise happened and i know did the parent need i don't know did the parent need help did actually more help did they actually more help? letting off help? i'm not letting off because i know the mother . what because i know the mother. what kind of parents are this? but they were okay before covid. she was was to school. was happy was going to school. she went back to school. she never went back to school. after the schools reopened, there a lot of families there were a lot of families there's no doubt about who had children with extra needs, who were left to suffer in houses . were left to suffer in houses. what these parents did is in it's an absolute dereliction of parenting just isn't it but is a classic case of where social services stopped going in her school . her school was no longer school. her school was no longer

accepting her. and these diabolical humans who were looking after her just left us to die. i mean, like like you said, were social services when this they should be checking up on this poor girl. and this is a of loss. i think it's absolutely atrocious. this had to happen . atrocious. this had to happen. is it a consequence of that, though , or where would you put though, or where would you put the because you know, the balance? because you know, the balance? because you know, the lot people watch the way a lot of people watch this well it wasn't this and go, well it wasn't anything lockdowns. anything to do with lockdowns. this parenting. this just poor parenting. i mean, in my view, poor parenting. and it might be lockdown. think social lockdown. well, i think social services probably had a loss on their being their hand, probably being extremely overwhelmed during. lockdown. shouldn't lockdown. well, this shouldn't there a absolved of there shouldn't be a absolved of safeguarding . but the bottom safeguarding. but the bottom line is won't basically line is they won't basically they weren't going into houses that the problem. they were that was the problem. they were being can't go in being told you can't go in because poor girl might die because this poor girl might die covid. tell him, we'll covid. if you tell him, we'll and died of neglect instead but guess what doctor said the guess what the doctor said the father asked you in father said june asked you in his he let his his evidence. he had let his daughter so badly. the daughter down so badly. the removals said , i'm lazy removals worker said, i'm lazy for laziness. oh my goodness . a for laziness. oh my goodness. a sick. my daughter's 15 going on

16 to leave her in the bedroom and to have my kids in this country. how did this happen? there's many questions, beverley, around this. you know , the big question for me as well is the sentencing. so the mother six years in prison. mother got six years in prison. this she admitted guilt this because she admitted guilt and seven years and the father got seven years because didn't admit any because he didn't admit any guilt this. that very guilt for this. that seems very lenient. i think the judge lenient. but i think the judge i think the judge is taking into account actually was account that actually all was well before covid. and i think that the parents needed that i think the parents needed help. they needed social services. they needed outside help special help because she was special needs, wasn't she? they knew and they didn't involved like she had extreme needs and her weight ballooned. they were ordering 4 to 5 takeaways a week. they weren't getting the help. i know that's no excuse because i think parents and the way she died is dread like my god. but they did need help. sorry though. you stop being the victim and you stop being the victim and you stop being the one who's abusive. when your actions some people this poor girl depended on her parents and they let her down. yeah, they really, really

did . not kidding. yeah, it's did. not kidding. yeah, it's a said awful story. dreadful to awful people that. well, they've gone to prison, but possibly not long enough. right up next, it's been confirmed that the duke and duchess of sussex have been asked to vacate uk home just weeks after. harry's book, spare, was released won't it be discussing that after your morning's news with rhiannon . morning's news with rhiannon. bevan beth, thank you. it's 1132. your top stories from the gb newsroom. matt hancock says he's a victim of a massive betrayal after more 100,000 of his whatsapp messages were leaked . the former health leaked. the former health secretary handed over his texts to journalist isabel oakeshott as they collaborated on his memoirs. she then passed them on to the telegraph, the paper mr. hancock clashed with then education secretary gavin over schools during the covid pandemic. hancock reportedly said he was mounting record trade action to close schools in

december 2020. that's despite sir gavin fighting tooth and nail to them open. minister for nick gibb told gb news the pandemic meant making rapid and difficult decisions . those difficult decisions. those whatsapp messages were messages where people were saying things in the of the arguments. but i know gavin williamson very well. he respects teachers very highly and of course they're all big decisions that were being made , decisions that were being made, you know, very rapidly during that period about whether to keep schools open and so on. and but ultimately we rely on the medical evidence coming from the chief medical officer and from the department of health in making those very important decisions . the search for decisions. the search for a missing baby in brighton ended after the remains an infant were found in woodland last night. police say the body was found close to where constance and mark gordon were on monday. the couple evaded authorities for more than weeks and refused to any information on the location

or welfare of their baby . or welfare of their baby. they're currently being held on suspicion of child neglect, manslaughter. and the home secretary has reportedly blamed political correctness for creating what she calls a blind spot for islamist extremists to operate under the radar. a according to the times suella braverman said the entire concept of political correctness should punished. her comments come just hours before the release . a final report into the release. a final report into the 2017 manchester arena bombing , 2017 manchester arena bombing, in which 22 people were killed . in which 22 people were killed. tv online . ab plus radio. this tv online. ab plus radio. this is giving news. now it's back to this . harry is giving news. now it's back to this. harry and meghan have been given the boot from cottage. what is this going to for the entire royal family we'll have all of that in just a few

moments.

welcome back. it's 1136. welcome back. it's1136. this is beth tennant's day on news. so the duke and duchess of sussex have confirmed that. they've been asked to vacate the uk home just weeks after . been asked to vacate the uk home just weeks after. harry's book, spare was released. i'm joined now by our correspondent cameron walker. this was rumoured yesterday cameron but we've now had a confirmed that king charles is told to pack their bags, sling the rock and go. exactly. i had this person confirmed to me personally last that they are indeed being asked to leave frogmore cottage. we think around summer time either , just before or just after the coronation , which clearly could coronation, which clearly could cause a problems in terms of cause a few problems in terms of invitations . so this was invitations. so this was basically the property frogmore cottage, i cottage, it's cottage, i say cottage, it's five bedroom house is owned by the crown estate and reportedly king charles has sanctions. their decision to essentially kick harry and meghan out, which means they don't have a base in

the united kingdom . some people the united kingdom. some people will probably say this is the king being strong , standing up king being strong, standing up for his beliefs. obviously, grenade after grenade has been thrown, some would argue, by harry and meghan, in terms of the netflix series, the oprah interview , then of course, interview, then of course, harry's memoir as well. but clearly, this creates a problem . the frogmore cottage is within the windsor gardens. windsor estates with armed guards and harry, we know, is in the middle of a legal battle with the home office over that decision to not him to pay for his own police when he's in the united kingdom say cottage was the say frogmore cottage was the only they were guaranteed security in the and i think security in the uk and i think perhaps it gives harry and meghan's the perfect excuse to say, we can't come to the say, well, we can't come to the coronation it's nice to coronation because it's nice to see very british it's that see how very british it's that they do quite passive they do something quite passive aggressive actually have aggressive to not actually have an what's an conversation about what's going on and who is moving into frogmore cottage. then instead them what is rumoured to be prince andrew, who currently

resides in royal lodge, another massive mansion on the windsor estate that's got like 30 bedrooms or something. yeah. yes yeah. so he is being downgraded . it's a downgrade, perhaps . so . it's a downgrade, perhaps. so why did harry and meghan always have the downgraded place in the first place? and why andrews have a better place once was a working member of the royal family, meghan got family, so harry and meghan got married and became. and that just happens to the property that was available to and that was available to them and the very fond of the queen was very fond of prince rumoured to be prince andrew, rumoured to be favourite gave favourite son. the queen gave prince andrew and reported prince andrew and that reported 250 grand annual allowance , 250 grand annual allowance, which clearly is needed to upkeep it . 30 which clearly is needed to upkeep it. 30 bedroom mansion royal king charles is royal lodge king charles is reportedly cost and trying to be more efficient with the with the royal houses on the estate and discussing prince discussing cutting prince andrew's allowance which means she afford royal lodge she can't afford royal lodge will it cut it totally or just the debate a bit? i think we all have something? yeah the have something? yeah but the point. point that he's point. the point is that he's basically offered prince andrew frogmore cottage and prince andrew reportedly isn't too happy about that. my bet is

still means it. also we were still means it. but also we were talking about this. but yesterday prince andrew still lives ex wife, sarah . lives with his ex wife, sarah. so they're going to have a big decision to make now. do they stay? they can't stay necessarily a five bedroom house that in a 30 bedroom house, that much in a 30 bedroom house, one you can have half of it. one of you can have half of it. the one can off the other the other one can off the other don't really see each other. sounds almost like the perfect post—divorce arrangement, to be frank, house frank, but in that smaller house they're have now, they they're going to have now, they can't . but that it can't necessarily. but that it was it good enough for was good. it was good enough for harry meghan. why it harry and meghan. why can't it be enough for sarah and be good enough for sarah and australia? we australia? so that's what we don't know. we don't. the private conversations that happened prince andrew happened between prince andrew and we and sarah, duchess of york, we do the duchess of york. do that. the duchess of york. sarah has bought another property , mayfair, relatively property, mayfair, relatively recently , the last year or so. recently, the last year or so. so if they do have a falling out, then perhaps sarah can move into the london property instead. but i just think it's having a make any relation if how we it do come to the how we make it do come to the coronation which they will come, where stay? what are where will they stay? what are your what are your guesses?

where be staying? where will they be staying? well, several royal well, there's several royal palaces castle, palaces there. windsor castle, buckingham will buckingham palace. so they will be there. we don't be offered there. well we don't know. and we don't knowing know. and we don't know knowing that. know for a no that. i know for a fact no invitations have gone out as of yet. not expecting yet. we're not expecting official invitations really to go very near the time of the go out very near the time of the coronation. but we do understand it's going to be save the date starting to appear in the next couple of weeks. so will harry and meghan reveal their saw or the people close to them revealed that have got revealed that they have got a save dates invite who knows? save the dates invite who knows? i think it's likely that they will to save the king will get to save the dates. king charles does very much charles still does very much love son, and i think it's love his son, and i think it's a balance with him between being a loving and king. and loving father and king. and i think at point is it may the fifth, the coronation 6th of may sixth. it's may it's not that long away, really going to come around incredibly quickly in of international for people international travel for people like and meghan that she's like harry and meghan that she's not to just book an not going to just book an easyjet is she like the wait before to to before she's going to want to want to know if they're going or no, no, absolutely. mean, they no, no, absolutely. i mean, they all fly commercial, but

all known to fly commercial, but i'm say, it's not i'm sure as you say, it's not going to be easyjet, but it's all kind of very much secret so. do you think to travel for do you think you to travel for security? do you think the british public them now? british public do want them now? i i know that's a silly i mean, i know that's a silly question, alice, do you question, alice, but do you think british public would think the british public would want or you only want to see or do you only i know dying to see how you know i'm dying to see how you make be. that is make them. must be. that is daunting very silly daunting on sun. it's very silly of people to suggest that he shouldn't be there. i think. do you the latest poll you suppose the latest poll was following suggests following the memoir suggests that are not that the british public are not on with harry meghan, on side with harry and meghan, but still have but clearly they still have reporters and supporters in this country, of course. you country, of course. and if you seeing there'll seeing them, no doubt there'll be series out be another netflix series out soon and so do something soon there. and so do something else. you won't gone for else. you won't be gone for long, right moving on. thank you, so you, cameron. thanks so much. right. something you may right. this is something you may not have heard but not have heard about, but you have of have teenagers have to kind of have teenagers or people in your life, or young people in your life, some understand the some capacity to understand the force called force around something called a prime drink right jess prime energy drink right jess you are all token young person on the palace, right? no offence. right it's quite hard for people to relate to the fervour that can develop around

something as simple as sugary water. but what's happened with this brand ? so basically from my this brand? so basically from my knowledge case, i, i think it's logan paul they've released this , which is, i assume similar to monster energy, drink back my day, which was a few years ago. now quite outdated. it's it was monster energy drink was like sold on the school black market and now i assume prime i think is now banned in most schools. yeah this is what's extraordinary so these are the two characters that we're looking at here, csi. what's the other guy called? no case, no can . paul logan. paul kind be can. paul logan. paul kind be pushing him like that what does that do in a boxing match? they go. it's gone. gone boxing? yeah. he's great character. great casey, isn't it interesting that this like i said, there's two worlds of media so that's in media now. so that's world in which the teenagers and kids which the teenagers and the kids are these are are obsessed. these people are influences are, clearly influences, as they are, clearly like bit of boxing well. like a bit of boxing as well. but brought this string but they brought out this string together. yes. and they've made million and they've made a

fortune my kids fortune on this. and my kids love my sister sells this love it. my sister sells this dnnkin love it. my sister sells this drink in shop and. then all drink in her shop and. then all the customers were because the customers were mad because they overpriced, but they said it was overpriced, but it £10 than it was £10 cheaper than everywhere else. what's for a kind of drink? well, i think £25 everywhere. everywhere price has had the people was had it on for 50. the people was yes. and people queuing and it's out stock and pay is high and out of stock and pay is high and logan paul has made a fortune from an energy drink. it was launched in america in january last year. it's already brought in $250 million of sales in 2022. what's wrong with our children today jess that they are so obsessed with buying a sugary water that has just has a cat on it. they're worse ever before. i mean, as jamie oliver's dietary dictatorship may disagree with , i think may disagree with, i think there's nothing wrong with it. i think kids want to buy the sugary drink that's. absolutely fine. i'd rather than more harmful things. think this is harmful things. i think this is the woke nanny state is going mad, quite frankly . why did the

mad, quite frankly. why did the school ban it, by the way, beverly because they keep fighting the kids fighting about it. my 13 year old came home it. so my 13 year old came home last week. she went, mummy, you're never going to guess what happened. one boy in my class had a can of prime there was no drinking. it was the empty cup and course it causing and of course it was causing such in the classroom. such a fuss in the classroom. the teacher came in and said, clear that letter up and she got and and throw it and she could stay and throw it in the bed. well the whole class went, oh, no idea what you've just done. and said, well, just done. and she said, well, it's kind of drink am it's the kind of drink what am i supposed do? such is the supposed to do? such is the power of youtubers. they power of these youtubers. they like shower of these like to shower of these influences. how influences. well, how do you, you mean, used to be you know, i mean, it used to be tracksuits trainers didn't, tracksuits or trainers didn't, but now you're paying 25 quid for a of sugary water. the for a kind of sugary water. the world's what's world's gone mad, right? what's the we're talking the next story we're talking about? about their about? let's talk about their take picking okay. take away. i'm picking me. okay. this? yeah i don't have a piece of paper, but yes, i have it well done online. you like well done online. if you like your takeaways , you like your takeaways, you like your kebabs, your chicken , kebabs, you like your chicken, you look away. now you might want to look away. now because this has gone viral. it's of a takeaway

thing messing up, realising just why whopping the peas and then put in the vegan cheese back god these regulations don't really stop anyone come really want that things i that's in middlesbrough i'm not saying it looks great but is it just like a barbecue as long as it was all cleaned and the meats good it gives it like chalk and grilled feeling and i think it's okay. i think there's no we don't have anything more . hey, i'm sorry. anything more. hey, i'm sorry. doesn't comply with food standards that we have in this country. i'm sure it got to a dirty grill in the kitchen. it actually looked clean enough to me as long as it wiped it down. grill the food. who knows you know? how about for dinner with? you know, i like to think of so i tweak it. right. let's talk about trafficking victims about these trafficking victims in the uk have gone missing. this is home office data that shows 566 people who were categorised as missing between 2020 and 2022. trafficking victims. and what does this what

questions does this race for you , jess? this particular story about these people who've gone missing ? i mean, for one, missing? i mean, for one, there's two things. one, if they are genuine asylum seekers , then are genuine asylum seekers, then why isn't the government doing more to protect? we already know that the government can't control our border. you know, what's point ? i also heard what's the point? i also heard as assistant from about a year or ago that 50, around 30% or two ago that 50, around 30% of those child refugees who are turned out not to be children. many of these come from albania. albania is a safe country. and if there's a trafficking incident , then it's their incident, then it's their responsibility to sort it out . responsibility to sort it out. is it just correct me if i'm wrong? narinder is this story about people coming across the channel as asylum seekers? but the guardian describing them as people victims? yes, because it's modern slavery. cathy betteridge , director of betteridge, director of anti—trafficking and modern slavery for the salvation army , slavery for the salvation army, said criminal criminal gangs use a range of techniques to top

people . sadly, most of the people. sadly, most of the people. sadly, most of the people abscond of vietnamese nationals , and this seems to be nationals, and this seems to be unked nationals, and this seems to be linked to extreme levels of psychological abuse that they are subject to their traffickers. i mean, this is really sad. i mean, they are they are missing through the net. there's no links. there's no way tracking them. and they're being used slaves in this country . yeah. i mean . this country. yeah. i mean. well, are they or are they just going and working? no, they'll bars and takeaways. and a lot of these jobs, there's a lot of vietnamese people working there actually . if there wasn't a actually. if there wasn't a kitchen. well they could move, but that still could be slavery. there could be forced have been doing all of that. they could be forced. they slipping the net. and of finding. and there's no way of finding. and there's no way of finding. and feel terribly if they and i feel terribly sad if they are used as modern slaves are being used as modern slaves in country and they get and in this country and they get and these traffickers are criminals, they with one of crime they away with one set of crime and another said and and then another said and it continues. all right. this continues. okay all right. this last one last story. this is about tying into the covid whatsapps that we had at the beginning of the show. kids in

england have to wear masks at school at number 10 because they didn't and didn't want didn't tell us and didn't want an with. nicola an argument with. nicola sturgeon that's informed sturgeon that's what informed this which affected all this policy, which affected all our children. jess, what you our children. jess, what do you make i mean, it is make of that? i mean, it is quite saddening. you know, politicians meant debate, so politicians are meant debate, so why can't boris johnson just have the girls debate? nicola sturgeon she's five foot four. i'm sure she's. not last intimidatory, though, she intimidatory, though, isn't she ? quite i think . ? she's quite scary, i think. she didn't obviously want like a pubuc she didn't obviously want like a public argument. it obviously just wanted to appear tough, but much more protective, more patrician . he wanted to be patrician. he wanted to be better than nicola sturgeon . it better than nicola sturgeon. it was about to take masks off kids schools. nicola sturgeon said, i'm keeping in scotland and they all we thought all panicked. so what we thought did because at did stopped? because at the time, remember the public time, if you remember the public , my god, nicola sturgeon, , oh my god, nicola sturgeon, it's great leader. she's it's such a great leader. she's doing right. boris doing the right. our boris johnson wrong johnson student all wrong because want because he doesn't really want lockdowns. he's putting our health killing health at risk and killing people. so that's why the narrative was there that nicola sturgeon was this of covid sturgeon was this great of covid and actually it was ridiculous.

it was public pressure , media it was public pressure, media pressure. that's why they pressure. and that's why they couldn't make that decision . i couldn't make that decision. i don't what it was. it was don't know what it was. it was it just thought is it just that they were all looking to each other? there's still so many questions to be answered this and no telegraph will and will no the telegraph will be running more tomorrow . be running more again tomorrow. jess and right. we want to talk about. well book day as well today is it will but day today apparently is today it's a no always hear it but with book day it's always happening always be happening is the biggest happening this is the biggest pain parents your pain in parents neck are your children know i'm gold mine are older now and they that older now and they don't that anymore thank goodness but anymore so thank goodness but back day. used to back in the day. yes i used to dress up. yeah. yeah and dress them up. yeah. yeah and would get involved in work. would you get involved in work. well oh yes. i well but digest. oh yes. i remember dressing my mum remember dressing up my mum bought sheets . bought like these bed sheets. bed sheets and i had this massive wig and said massive wig and everyone said i wanted to be gandalf from lord of the and everyone called me dumbledore and i got so offended this wasn't like when i was ten, but i think , well, what do is
