year old sex offender using a smartphone and reports of the asking how to access the dark web. we covered this story when he was released. we covered it yesterday well when pictures had emerged , we were asking whether emerged, we were asking whether or not he should be recalled to. and i'm even broadening. so, ladies and gentlemen, i want to know you, gbviews@gbnews.uk know from you, gbviews@gbnews.uk do be do you think that be rehabilitated? should they ever be allowed to walk the streets again ? stuff in inbox again? stuff in the inbox already. i'll go to that. but first our national reporter paul hawkins outside ministry hawkins is outside the ministry of justice for us. this of justice for us. paul, this really is a story that's got the nafion really is a story that's got the nation talking. what's the latest ? yeah, the latest latest? yeah, the latest actually on the fact he has been recalled to hmv verne. that's a category c low security prison indoor from the former head of scotland yard unit, mike haines. you said the disgraced pop star will always a danger to children after he was recalled to prison, he called arrogant, dangerous and so fixated on his offending

behaviour that he'll stop. just to remind you he to eight years of a 16 yearjail to remind you he to eight years of a 16 year jail term was jailed in 2015 for attempted four counts of indecent assault and. one of having sex with a girl under. so these are two girls he attacked aged 12 and 13 after luring them to his dressing room. this is when he was one of britain's biggest pop stars in the 1970s. and then in 1975, he crept into the bed of his third victim, a girl. he was aged ten at the time in an attempt to rape her. he's these allegations then came to light as part of operation yewtree. that's the met's operation that swung into action following the jemmy savile scandal . and then jemmy savile scandal. and then in 2015, he was subsequently jailed, released, as you say, on tagged on, and then widespread media reports, including that photo you alluded to, patrick, that he was trying to access the dark . now, for those who don't dark. now, for those who don't know the dark web is the kind of hidden part of the internet

where a lot of criminality takes place. it's a known area where can exchange images of children . he was said to be accessing it and at the moment that that that then caused to be recalled to prison. and at the moment the parole board are reassessing whether they need to rerelease him and exactly what's going on. yeah look paul, thank you very much. as hawkins, our much. as paul hawkins, our national reporter , is outside national reporter, is outside the of for us the ministry of justice for us and, was alluding to, and, as paul was alluding to, that up series of that this opens up a series of very personal questions. is the parole board fit purpose? by the way, people are saying this way, some people are saying this shows that it works, our justice system works. the was system works. the guy was allowed quickly when allowed very quickly recall when there was just a whiff of anything going on. so some people saying means people are saying that means that work . other people that he does work. other people are earth this are saying why earth was this guy allowed out ? served guy ever allowed out? served half in pretty lax half a sentence in a pretty lax prison camp files ever be rehabilitate to gbviews@gbnews.uk stuff as you can imagine already coming in to the inbox right now. and no, they need locking from linda. i'll go to that inbox very

shortly. i want your interaction on that. but paul cecil joins me now is a former scotland yard detective chief inspector and former of scotland yard former head of the scotland yard unit. you very, very unit. look, thank you very, very much for joining unit. look, thank you very, very much forjoining us and giving us some insight in this time. i'm going to with your i'm going to start with your views your as to whether or views in your as to whether or not can ever be rehabilitated . i not can ever be rehabilitated. i don't think they can were entirely reliant on them resisting what to them natural urges and to those in civilised society are entirely unnatural urges. we're completely relying on them not doing they think is okay. on them not doing they think is okay . yeah. and that i think is okay. yeah. and that i think is a really, really important but difficult point to make , which difficult point to make, which is that for a lot of people they have come, they would say anyway , they have compulsions . and , they have compulsions. and it's almost and i'm not i'm not of this view, but it's almost like a ministry responsibility

thing. is that what they claim? they do? i mean, the simple fact of the is that is that there are certain types of people that they find attractive and that will never, ever be acceptable to. and what this has shown that the system is just not fit for purpose. glitter was convicted , purpose. glitter was convicted, as your reportage just said, of four offences, all of which potentially carry a life sentence. in addition to that, when was in vietnam? had he been convicted of the offence over there, he could have potentially faced execution by firing squad and gives some sort of idea . the and gives some sort of idea. the severity of the offence is what about the impact it has on children's lives ? and obviously children's lives? and obviously as they come forward , become as they come forward, become adults, the impact it has on their their lives,. so what earth is the parole board doing even considering in this guy for release in the first place? i really don't know. i he's been sentenced to six years the is that you serve half your sentence . you know i would beg

sentence. you know i would beg question why don't you serve all your sentence and you're given remission if you actually behave well not not that you go in there knowing that you've been sentenced 16 but you're only going to do eight because it's clearly work in this man, which was convicted when he was 53. and we have to be honest, he didn't wake up when he was 53 and decide to, you know , to and decide to, you know, to start offending. it's clearly happened before because because it's he is. and since then he's been a prolific recidivist , he's been a prolific recidivist, he's done his best to travel the world to escape . he's been world to escape. he's been caughtin world to escape. he's been caught in numerous countries, banned from even more countries, and then comes back to the uk. and he's found guilty of horrific crimes against children. and yeah , he was children. and yeah, he was jailed in 2015 for attempted rape full counts of indecent assault and one with having sex with a girl under the age of 13. i'm just rattling off a few bits and bobs here. what? what what is solution there. because is the solution there. because i don't to hark back to don't want to hark back to mediaeval times know a lot of

people are getting in touch to say well the death penalty is the only thing and of this stuff and we have a death penalty debate now and again when debate every now and again when a this raises a case similar to this raises heads, where do you stand on what adequate punishment what the adequate punishment should like should be? there are things like chemical for example should be? there are things like cfullical for example should be? there are things like cfullical terms, for example should be? there are things like cfullical terms, or for example should be? there are things like cfullical terms, or what example , full life terms, or what should we i mean , when should we do? i mean, when you've got somebody that serious , as much as got those whole life term, simple as that, it committed multiple offences that carry a life sentence . whilst carry a life sentence. whilst he's been doing that, he's not shown any remorse, he's not guilty. still denying that he's a he's clearly a danger to the pubuc a he's clearly a danger to the public and those say, you know, the system works , it doesn't the system works, it doesn't because it's took a media exposure for it to be brought to the attention. those people that manage offenders and there's multiple multiple cases of where repeat offenders have been let out early and gone on to cause real serious harm to innocent people. and this yet another example that wouldn't have exposed had it not been for the

media or just very finally think he should die behind bars. absolutely. absolutely let him see out, you know , the other see out, you know, the other thing we've got to bear in mind that he's still going to be released in eight years. you know, if he if he's still with us, he's going to be released in eight years. and there's nothing we can do about it because that's what sentenced to. that's what was sentenced to. and they have an and that's if they have an opinion, know, second opinion, you know, a second opinion, you know, a second opinion out because opinion and let him out because some good the things that some do good the things that he's been rehabilitated. yeah look very there's look paul thank you very there's a insight that paul a fascinating insight that paul is scotland yard is a former scotland yard detective chief inspector. and crucially to this crucially in relation to this former scotland yard's former head of scotland yard's unit, pretty clear cut stuff from a man who would know. i think which is that he doesn't feel as though can be rehabilitated, that they do have a and that frankly should have full life tarras where you on this gbviews@gbnews.uk this inboxis this gbviews@gbnews.uk this inbox is absolutely flying at the minute and i can see with good reason people getting in touch.i good reason people getting in touch. i want me to say the retired social workers and people who've worked on wings,

etc. saying absolutely never etc. saying absolutely no, never let lot of people, a let them out. a lot of people, a death penalty, etc. i'll into the more specifics of that inbox a so i'm just a few minutes. so i'm just moving now because we are one moving on now because we are one day off chancellor's spring day off the chancellor's spring budget jeremy hunt set to budget with jeremy hunt set to make announcements including corporation tax hikes extending the current energy price guarantee, raising lifetime guarantee, raising the lifetime allowance cap pensions . allowance cap on pensions. that's an interesting one, by the way. young versus, old debate to be had there and the potential pension announcements are receiving. but could are already receiving. but could we a financial we be facing a financial collapse because hunt's budget comes at a shaky for the markets shockwaves from the collapse of the silicon valley bank rip alone rumblings about potential other crises as joining me now in the studio is our business and economics editor. it's liam halligan on the money . halligan on the money. difficulties. i want to start with this ready to be honest with this ready to be honest with you, liam. so i'm kind of going to let take it away. i mean, the pensions thing does seem to be quite controversial. i know you've been on

corporation tax as can we corporation tax as well. can we start pensions. a bit of start pensions. it's a bit of a young versus, old thing that i'm seeing online at the minute. so what chancellor probably what the chancellor is probably going tomorrow raise what the chancellor is probably goirlifetimetomorrow raise what the chancellor is probably goirlifetime allowance raise what the chancellor is probably goirlifetime allowance onaise the lifetime allowance on pension from about 1.1 pension saving from about 1.1 million quid million million quid to 1.7 million quid. yeah huge money. so the vast british vast majority of british households, this is other worldly. is a pop star worldly. this is a pop star premier footballer territory. but for the wealthiest four or 5% of people who are saving for a pension, this will go down well with them. it does seem a bit of a bound to the rich in the middle of a cost of living crisis. the government will say they to do persuade they need to do this to persuade nhs doctors to stay on longer so they get heavily penalised for their pension as they get into their pension as they get into their late fifties and early sixties . i their late fifties and early sixties. i think that's a difficult debate to have lots of other pension and lots of budget issues, knocking . but i think issues, knocking. but i think you're exactly right . the you're exactly right. the introduction that we do have to keep an eye the backdrop to keep an eye on the backdrop to this budget which is the ongoing fallout from this bank in the us it sounds really arcane, but

look, if the government and the bank of england done a deal earlier week with hsbc buying the us subsidiary of the silicon valley bank, then we would be talking about nothing else at the moment because there'd be run on british banks. we've be very careful, responsible . the very careful, responsible. the way we broadcast about this. i don't know anything more than is in the public domain. so not saying i haven't had any special briefing from anyone with the authorities, the uk authorities , but if you look at banking stocks , the us and indeed in the stocks, the us and indeed in the uk and europe, but mainland europe , well a lot of smaller europe, well a lot of smaller banks are being downgraded by investors. they are fleeing from them and depositors are putting money. the much bigger banks there seems to be a concern that lots of smaller banks and silicon bank was a pretty as a medium sized bank was one of the wall street giants pretty specialised bank specialising in tech companies. specialised bank specialising in tech companies . there are tech companies. there are concerns that the same strategy

it was pursuing basically betting on low interest rates with interest rates haven't gone up over the last year or so. their balance sheet started to look a lot more rickety than before. there's nothing to about at the moment. patrick yeah, but what i will say is that regulators are watching very very closely. and here's the thing. tomorrow, when he stands up in the house of commons, jeremy hunt would have been under huge pressure from tory backbenchers like me saying why are you doing huge rise in corporation size? why are you slowing the economy down? why aren't you starting to take some risks, get the economy moving, spending a more money, borrowing a money in order to a bit more money in order to give the economy a boost jeremy hunt now very handily for hunt can now very handily for him point to the financial market and say here's why . we've market and say here's why. we've got to be careful. we've got to be prudent, because there's a lot financial turmoil out lot of financial turmoil out there that in my view is the way he'll present it. yeah, exactly. i that we're going to i don't know that we're going to be this. going be all over this. you're going to all over this tomorrow as to be all over this tomorrow as well. again, without well. again, look, without wanting up a psycho or

wanting to whip up a psycho or anything that, but for anything like that, but for people like who have people like me, who have absolutely no shape or form as plugged into economic matters as you are, i checked the news this morning and i was very concerned to say the least. and i was worried about what the potential knock on effects might to be something south america something going south in america . well, what they be? what . well, what could they be? what where we how worried should i be? more concerned if be? it'd be more concerned if you're my with respect. and you're my age with respect. and you're my age with respect. and you remember the 2008 financial crisis of businesses crisis when a lot of businesses went bust, a lot of people lost their shirt? i don't think we're in anything like that territory at the moment. the reason for thatis at the moment. the reason for that is that banks are now much more stringently regulated than they were back . having said they were back. having said that, there's a lot of people in the banking sector, the finance lobby who've been trying to loosen those regulation , as they loosen those regulation, as they always they never learn they always do. they never learn they want to make their money like the previous generation of financiers i think they financiers did. i think they will now have efforts will now have those efforts stymied regulators hold firm stymied and regulators hold firm saying, even a really swish

saying, look even a really swish well—regarded california out by silicon valley bank if they can go bust and we have to keep these regulations stringent never say never . capitalism is never say never. capitalism is by its nature a rocky, precarious business. but i don't see any evidence. i see some market volatility . i don't see market volatility. i don't see any evidence that we're in for anything like a 2008 financial situation . but that won't stop situation. but that won't stop the chancellor using the last few days of turmoil. what's beyond the headlines? we're not really talking about it very much. keeping it on much. we're keeping it on it. the chancellor will that the chancellor will use that turmoil as a justification for why budget will why wednesday's budget will probably be quite boring . that probably be quite boring. that we go thank you. something certainly not hollywood now you can always invest with on the money right. we're moving on from that now because a woman has been jailed for falsely claiming that was raped and assaulted by an asian grooming . assaulted by an asian grooming. we will hear how some of the accused attempted to take that own lives. i'm patrick christys and. this is

gb news e yes. okay. all right. welcome back, everybody here on gb news. just to let you know, we are taking a lot of emails about this gary glitter stuff and whether or not can ever be rehabilitated. vaiews@gbnews.uk shortly i'm also going to be to talking you about the fact that there are rumblings of a big tory rebellion brewing find what's over shortly. but before all i don't williams all of i don't know, williams has sentenced to eight and a half years in prison at preston crown court for perverting the course of justice. the 22 year old woman had falsely claimed that she was a victim of an asian gang who made a series of false allegations . in may false rape allegations. in may 2022, she made a post on stating she had been beaten , abused and she had been beaten, abused and trafficked asian men. she trafficked by asian men. she shared a photo of herself injured , but the court heard injured, but the court heard that she done this to that she had done this to herself a hammer. herself with a hammer. joining me studio is our me now in the studio is our homeland security editor mark homeland security editor is mark white. can you just white. mark, can you just enlighten us a little bit on

what happened at? yeah, what on earth happened at? yeah, completely shocking this completely shocking story. this is complex of allegations she is a complex of allegations she made . one of them being that she made. one of them being that she was groomed and raped by asian grooming gang , but also claimed grooming gang, but also claimed that all kinds of other people had been involved . sexual had been involved. sexual assaults and rapes against her, including white young men as well . so it was including white young men as well. so it was right including white young men as well . so it was right across the well. so it was right across the spectrum in terms of ethnicity , spectrum in terms of ethnicity, colour and this individual really got a lot of white widespread traction when she posted that facebook picture. you've got an image of it here. it's quite disturbing, but it's a graphic illustration of lengths that she went to cause herself , to give herself more of herself, to give herself more of a credible story to tell the authorities, even part of her finger . she authorities, even part of her finger. she then tried to convince authorities that she had been trafficked that she'd been groomed, that she'd been

with heroin , so that she'd be with heroin, so that she'd be more complying as multiple people had sex with her. absolutely horrific allegations. and understandably, the police taking them very seriously indeed. taking them very seriously indeed . it soon became apparent indeed. it soon became apparent that as they delved down into what she was claiming that they were baseless. however, that didn't stop a number of people being arrested and then the names of course being revealed within the wider community and borrowing foreigners in cumbria and then all of the fallout from that. one of the people who it was claimed by her that she had groomed by this individual was mohammad ramzan, who says that, you know, his life has been . he you know, his life has been. he tried to kill himself in front of his family with so affected by what has gone . this is what by what has gone. this is what he said on the steps of the crown court at preston. although it says there's no winners here today, i feel no sense of

triumph , only sadness for the triumph, only sadness for the loss of years, the impact on my family. here are and the true impact . but this will family. here are and the true impact. but this will have on true victims. that's the loss of slavery and sexual abuse as father and an . uncle to my father and an. uncle to my amazing girls . this fills me amazing girls. this fills me with profound sadness would perform this performance . the perform this performance. the sisters only the love and unwavering support of every support of my family enabled to be do this nightmare to give me the strength i needed . and the strength i needed. and muhammad said that , you know, he muhammad said that, you know, he is not in any way trying to downplay the seriousness of the issues surrounding asian grooming gangs. that issues surrounding asian grooming gangs . that is a big grooming gangs. that is a big problem, he says in towns and cities right across country. but

the actions of this young woman in trying to suggest that posting this on facebook then all of the subsequent and reaction all me undermines the case. those who have legitimate and allegations to make about those who are doing that. yeah absolutely. mark, thank you in a way for bringing us that story about. well, i and security that is so shocking stuff that wasn't absolutely . well, we're moving absolutely. well, we're moving on now because the government's migration second migration bill passed its second reading in the commons late last night despite backbench opposition from many of its own employees and former prime minister theresa may. well, the proposed legislation seeks to deter channel crossings by those who come to the uk. illegal leave from claiming asylum. all citing modern slavery trafficking. hundreds gathered outside to protest against the measures and, claiming the government is abandoning refugees. but as we, it might be a different kind of rebellion brewing in the conservative party . we had rather a long party. we had rather a long time. we have our people. oh,

what you're doing is cruel and heartless, etc. gb news your political reporter olivia utley joins you joins us now. and olivia, you are hearing whispers around the corridors if not corridors of parliament, if not more whispers, that more than whispers, that there might another of tory might be another kind of tory rebellion. it about? yes rebellion. what's it about? yes so like will be so it sounds like there will be a different kind of tory a very different kind of tory rebellion from that rebellion from the one that perhaps many were expecting. and what night was the what happened last night was the bill reading bill passed its second reading in there was talk in the lords. there was talk from backbench mps mainly the from backbench mps mainly on the left party, suggesting left of the party, suggesting that on except that it was on except for legislation and would legislation and that it would result in poor treatment of result in very poor treatment of migrants. actually every migrants. but actually every single mp , when it came to single tory mp, when it came to crunch voted in favour the crunch time, voted in favour the bill. what we are now bill. but what we are now expecting is in the committee stage of the bill, we're expecting an amendment from mp on the right of the conservative party essentially that party who essentially feel that this doesn't far enough and this bill doesn't far enough and that measures this bill that the measures this bill essentially won't be possible to try to go ahead . the bill has no try to go ahead. the bill has no teeth for long as we are in the european court. human rights. what they're concerned about is these deportations getting so held up in the human rights

courts that . actually, no one courts that. actually, no one ever get sent to any of these third parties. so what they to do is leave the european court of human rights, which of course , bill, that wouldn't do , in this bill, that wouldn't do what talking is what talking about is essentially headbutting the international legal and hoping that we might be able get through them. and then what this group of rebels are hoping is that we can actually leave the echr . how that we can actually leave the echr. how could this echr. how big could this rebellion be? well, i'm hearing that the empties organising the bill would be very surprised if it got fewer than 50 votes in the house commons this amendment. so that is quite a big scale rebellion really. 50 right wing conservative. obviously the amendment almost wouldn't through because labour wouldn't through because labour wouldn't support it, but it wouldn't support it, but it would be very embarrassing the prime minister, if he's winning based on opposition support when his own mp is, aren't backing him. so yeah, as you say, the issue is the government has

believes it can proceed with this legislation without leaving the european of human rights. it believes there are all sorts of different workarounds. well the ndp's i'm speaking to those on the right, the party believe that that's nonsense. that's what said. and that actually it just won't be possible to proceed any of the sort of deportations to rwanda that that the prime minister is talking about, because they believe it's just going to get held over just going to get held up over and in the human and over again in the human rights the way rights courts. and the only way to get that problem is to get over that problem is simply cut through simply to cut through human rights courts by leaving the. and that would be a massive headache rishi sunak. and it headache for rishi sunak. and it would be big show of defiance would be a big show of defiance from a large section of the conservative that actually they want go whole hog this and want to go whole hog in this and they can see trouble down the road the kind of trouble, frankly, we all see down the frankly, we can all see down the road, that we don't road, which is that we don't think is going to get think this is going to get wrapped the courts. wrapped through the courts. well, just final well, absolutely. and just final thing perhaps the most thing on this. perhaps the most interesting the interesting element is that the home secretary woman home secretary so liberal woman has made clear that herself personally like see personally would like see britain the european britain leave the european court of now, said

of human rights. now, she said that government that that isn't government policy she's planning policy and she's not planning to change policy. but if change government policy. but if this issue comes to a head, it'll be rishi sunak versus suella braverman because suella braverman privately the braverman if privately on the side rebels . yeah, look, side of the rebels. yeah, look, obviously not so privately anymore that must be said. thank you very, very much, olivia, our political going political reporter. we're going to peeled for this to keep our eyes peeled for this as on because we as this story on because as we understand many of around understand it, as many of around around tory employees be around tory employees could be looking to further with illegal bill, how does that make you feel at home? lives in charge. gb views gb news. .uk. but there's loads more to come between now and and here's between now and 4:00. and here's just flavour of it all just a little flavour of it all the police a threat to women. find out how many police officers this will you by officers this will shock you by the out how many police the way find out how many police officers are accused of officers the uk are accused of violence towards women and girls and many have been disciplined as a. and get a load of this could king charles be replaced by nicola sturgeon as mp leadership frontrunner humza yousaf essentially wants to ditch the monarchy for their own head of state. we all we that's

effect it had on the accused individuals lies this woman has made investigations into grooming gangs far harder to be carried out. and yeah, this is a massive as well clearly. absolutely completely innocently twist this story and twist in this story and devastating for the people who were least three of were falsely at least three of them, according to reports anyway attempted to take their own i shows the own lives, i think shows the real of this. but mark, as you identify as well , the bigger identify as well, the bigger picture, some would the picture, some would argue the bigger the bigger picture is about the knock on effect that this might have people who claim to be have for people who claim to be victims, genuine victims of grooming gangs going . we already grooming gangs going. we already know, difficult it know, don't we, how difficult it appears to be for them to get their voices heard, for anything to about this one would to be done about this one would imagine would set that back even further says, it that further and says, how is it that carl beech got 18 years lou carl beech got 18 years and lou williams eight a half williams only got eight a half years? case? arguably years? similar case? so arguably the williams case worse, there must some sort appeal or must be some sort appeal or review i mean yep heavily terms that view marion, i feel so sorry the guys affected sorry for the poor guys affected by the lies of the awful woman . by the lies of the awful woman. but surprise because but this is no surprise because are always believed. i feel

sorry and fearful for my grandson . so that is from marion grandson. so that is from marion i mean, clearly a lot of people would disagree with that. marion got exactly the sentiment that you mean though and i think that you mean though and i think that you know, an increasingly you know, is an increasingly difficult for men although difficult age for men although given that we're about silk about police and about story of police and whether or not they are actually a danger women themselves. a danger to women themselves. and shock when and it will shock you when reveal of police reveal the number of police officers are currently officers who are currently suspected violent suspected of having been violent towards as well. towards women and girls as well. so definitely a mixed bag on that. but keep your views coming. right coming. gbviews@gbnews.uk right so could nicola so after the break, could nicola sturgeon replace sturgeon be about to replace you're to this you're not going to leave this king charles scotland as head king charles as scotland as head of yeah that's find out of state. yeah that's find out which snp leadership hopeful wants to ditch the monarchy is at least very open to the idea and we all know who the head of state be down with. we all know i'm patrick christys. this is gb news

okay welcome back, everybody. now, before i get stuck into the next story, i do want to hear you get those emails coming in. gary goes to being recalled to prison . of course, this is the prison. of course, this is the pop prison. of course, this is the pop star. a lot of people are saying he shouldn't have been allowed out. so i was the only search, half of his sentence. he was recalled after breaching his licence, appearing. licence, or at least appearing. so anyway, i am having a discussion whether discussion about whether or not the for purpose the parole is fit for purpose and frankly whether or kind and frankly whether or not kind of actually rehabilitated. of ever actually rehabilitated. so get your views coming in on that we'll talking that because we'll be talking about but on about that shortly. but on a completely different note, voting in the voting opened yesterday in the contest the candidate voting opened yesterday in the co succeed the candidate voting opened yesterday in the co succeed nicola he candidate voting opened yesterday in the co succeed nicola sturgeoniate voting opened yesterday in the co succeed nicola sturgeon ase to succeed nicola sturgeon as the leader . ballot sends out the snp leader. ballot sends out 20005 the snp leader. ballot sends out 2000s of members will allow voters choose between three voters to choose between three remaining candidates and. we've got humza yousaf kate forbes and ash regan, but it's been reported that one of these candidates would consider ditching the monarchy if scotland gained independence . scotland gained independence. can you guess who it is? in an interview with the national, the

scottish secretary, humza yousaf, told the newspaper he believes the question of whether scotland away from monarchy scotland away from the monarchy to elected of state should be to an elected of state should be considered within. the first five of independence . and five years of independence. and let's honest, we know who is let's be honest, we know who is nomination for head of state would to be shed some more light on the topic. i'm now joined the political commentator and former snp member the tenant colonel snp member is the tenant colonel stuart fantastic stuart crawford. fantastic stuff. very much for stuff. thank you very much for joining right. okay. so joining me. right. okay. so let's deal with first things first, do. scotland would first, then do. scotland would actually to the actually vote to ditch the monarchy . oh, good afternoon , monarchy. oh, good afternoon, patrick. i think the snp membership , patrick. i think the snp membership, perhaps the broader independent movement, could possibly , possibly i vote to possibly, possibly i vote to ditch the monarchy , but i don't ditch the monarchy, but i don't think the scottish public as a whole would do so . and i say whole would do so. and i say that because having witnessed the scenes in edinburgh when her majesty the queen was lying in state at st giles cathedral, it was quite clear that the bulk , was quite clear that the bulk, the scottish population as a

great affection for the british family, and i suspect will continue well into charles's reign . why suggest it, do you reign. why suggest it, do you think? why suggest that scotland could even consider ditching the monarchy and replacing it with an elected head of state? what will be the point of getting rid of a well—established, established smiths and replacing it with let's be nicola sturgeon 7 it with let's be nicola sturgeon ? well, whether it whether the monarchy would be replaced by nicolas sturgeon is another thing altogether . i certainly thing altogether. i certainly can't see a queen being queen of scots , queen of scotland. if you scots, queen of scotland. if you possibly a president. nicola is an outside possibility . but an outside possibility. but humza yousaf, who's the candidate who has suggested is basically playing to the gallery here, he well be a republican. lots of other but he's playing to the gallery the there's a very strong thread of republicanism within the snp and

the wider independence movement and it was to them that he was addressing his thoughts here, particularly as it appeared in an interview in the national, which is a scottish paper which , is the only scottish paper which is completely in favour of. and the scottish independence and which tends those sort of views in fact as you referred to as pravda up here in scotland . yes, here in scotland. yes, absolutely. fantastic. so but look, i mean, how is the use of actually getting in? i mean, there are serious question marks about that. and just in terms of competence. okay. the polling would appear to show that. whilst be the most whilst he might be the most popular snp voters, popular amongst snp voters, amongst a wider of scottish amongst a wider base of scottish voters is , not so, would the snp voters is, not so, would the snp actually be committing political suicide ? humza yousaf became suicide if? humza yousaf became their leader. suicide if? humza yousaf became their leader . well i think so their leader. well i think so and have said so publicly on a couple of occasions . he is very couple of occasions. he is very much the establishment candidate

, the continuity candidate , if , the continuity candidate, if you prefer, the current snp in a cabal would like to see succeed nicola sturgeon. he comes across and there's a great scots word for this. it comes across as being a bit sleek it which can being a bit sleek it which can being sly devious are not to say i'm and i think he has the bulk of the snp establishment behind him in terms of the wider membership and all got a vote by the single trans variable vote system. i think he will be less popular and. there are signs that far from being a shoo in his elevation to first minister is not without difficulty and is certainly a done deal. is not without difficulty and is certainly a done deal . just told certainly a done deal. just told to me very briefly about the dark plague future ahead of us where they scottish presidential motorcade rolls its way across the border and into downing

street's rishi sunak has to open the door of downing street , do the door of downing street, do a little bow as a welcome president stirred gin to guys london i mean you would have thought that that would be something beyond parody actually apparently it could. well they do think she would go for it. apparently it could. well they do think she would go for it . do do think she would go for it. do you think she would go for it? well, i can i can speak for nicola sturgeon on that one. i think mean it's almost beyond parody as you say. it's think mean it's almost beyond parody as you say . it's possible parody as you say. it's possible one only assumes that once reach the border , either berwick or the border, either berwick or just north of carlisle , she'd just north of carlisle, she'd have to produce her passport . have to produce her passport. yes. to get past the border guards and maybe change currency as well. they're not particularly clear on that at the moment as to whether they to do that. we still have we still have problems with scotland. notes can tell you, notes to london, i can tell you, but let's not go. the lowland legal tender, as they say. it's legal tender, as they say. it's legal . thank you very much.

legal. thank you very much. great to chat. great to chat. take alitalia girls. goodbye all right. okay. yeah. just the potential of whether or not scotland is going to ditch the monarchy. but there's a law working part zero. okay, so humza yousaf have to win, which he well do. then have he may well do. they then have to independence? they to vote for independence? they then vote to the then have to vote to ditch the monarchy to elect monarchy and then to elect a nicola sturgeon. know nicola sturgeon. hey, you know what? a crazy world what? we live in a crazy world people. we live in a crazy world. moving up ahead of jeremy hunfs world. moving up ahead of jeremy hunt's highly anticipate spring budget tomorrow. many are what the to do their the government plans to do their pension and this is pension funds. and this is a really interesting overseas pension funds. and this is a really debateing overseas pension funds. and this is a really debate that'sarseas pension funds. and this is a really debate that's opened here young debate that's opened here because number of reports and because a number of reports and the is planning to the chancellor is planning to raise tax free limit for raise the tax free limit for pension contributions, although it is unknown that final it is unknown what that final figure the move is figure will be. the move is hoped workers in hoped to help retain workers in several sectors. but i know a lot of people, people who rightly or wrongly their view is this, which is the people of a certain age lived in a certain time where property ownership was attainable , where they could was attainable, where they could put money aside for that pensions and that they've had a decent crack at life. okay and

they do not need the tax breaks . there is a younger generation coming through who may be being squeezed by the economy, who find it nigh on impossible to get property ladder. and get on the property ladder. and they i know loads they want a break. i know loads of people will be shouting at that telly now one way or the other, saying the oldies it other, saying the oldies have it to god. people don't have to god. young people don't have that bull and they stop that bull and they should stop smearing spending smearing on toast and spending 12 rooftop cocktails 12 quid on rooftop cocktails and instead should a bit instead they should work a bit harder back in their harder like they back in their day. why we're having day. so this is why we're having the chat i'm now the chat because i'm joined now by he's a pension by mcphail. he's a pension expert and head of retirement research at hargraves london . research at hargraves london. lansdown. lansdown lansdown. so hargreaves lansdown , where do you stand on this? because a lot of younger people will saying, excuse, excuse will be saying, excuse, excuse me, where's break? all me, where's my tax break? all these oldies , they've got these golden oldies, they've got properties. to properties. they've got to savings account, got all savings account, they've got all of . where's my tax of this stuff. where's my tax break? come on. okay, i'm going to answer question. patrick to answer that question. patrick i. on. i must just correct i. go on. i must just correct you to be. i now with a you used to be. i now with a consultancy called the cat, so i managed to get it wrong three times that much, even for me is

quite rare. so carry on going. so, yeah , very understandable. so, yeah, very understandable. young people unhappy with the pension system . you're talking pension system. you're talking about the baby boomers having stolen, the future of the escalator for houses they wrote. yes. go to pensions. they've done the right . but the done the right. but the government done a of good government has done a of good things to try and make it easier people to save money for their retirement particular they've retirement in particular they've brought legislation forcing brought in legislation forcing employers money into employers to put money into retirement savings . so for retirement savings. so for everybody including the young people. it may be hard people. so yes, it may be hard to save your own money for retirement, but if you've got a job, your employer is required by money into that by law to put money into that savings plan for you. so i think i think the journey towards saving a decent of money has undoubtedly got harder i think i think the baby boomers who the formal pension schemes formal salary pension schemes have done very well. but it's not to say the government hasn't done stuff to help the young people as well but it doesn't appear to anyway from what we can glean. so far it might can glean. so far that it might actually only really be helping the of pensioners on the wealthiest of pensioners on

top that. so it's almost top of that. so it's almost doubly young people doubly awful for young people who scratching around the who are scratching around at the minute the minute trying to get on the housing ladder. i can see you on the problem, jeremy. the particular problem, jeremy. john's fix right now john's trying fix right now these get this way doctors if it's worth a while coming back to and coming off the golf to work and coming off the golf course because the way the tax rules framed lifetime rules were framed lifetime allowance maximum annual contributions they make it contributions they could make it literally they were getting they were getting taxed for going to work it wasn't worth the while going to work wants to going back to work he wants to fix because of all fix that problem because of all the problems with nhs, we the problems with the nhs, we need more healthcare workers. so he to do something to keep the doctors happy. that was a problem . at same time had to problem. at the same time had to remember austerity back in 2010 when the george osborne government froze everything for a number of years. well, the austerity has lasted much, much longer. in fact its only now with this announcement with possibly hearing tomorrow that they're planning on getting of they're planning on getting of the pensions, austerity that has lasted since 2010. so all allowances for how much you can

put into pension, how much money you build up before been you can build up before been frozen for literally last 13 frozen for literally the last 13 years. so this is this kind of a bit overdue because the inflation pay rises and so on have all eaten away at the value of those savings pots in order to bring them up today you had to bring them up today you had to you had to do something. so i think it's good. it's actually if he does this, it will be good for everybody. right. look, for everybody. all right. look, tom very, very much, tom thank you very, very much, tom thank you very, very much, tom those pension tom thank you very, very much, tom i'll those pension tom thank you very, very much, tom i'll trythose pension tom thank you very, very much, tom i'll try and; pension tom thank you very, very much, tom i'll try and getnsion tom thank you very, very much, tom i'll try and get ition expert. i'll try and get it right this time. ahead of public affairs, the lang cat is so we'll never if i was wrong. we'll never know if i was wrong. okay moving according to okay i'm moving on. according to new released the new figures released by the national council, national police council, it's very story. this more very serious story. this more than 1500 police officers have been of violence against women and girls . a six month period and girls. a six month period with less than 1% of cases results in sacking. now, you can very much that 1 to 2 ways. so just over of the cases will conduct matters usually raised internally remaining complaints from the public . we've reported from the public. we've reported offences ranging from sexual attacks to excessive force dunng attacks to excessive force during arrest. now a national

threat assessment of the scale of violence against women and girls is due to be made next month. to break this further, i am now joined by former chief superintendent parm sandhu pom. thank you very much. so two ways of looking at this as far as i can tell. one, which is that, frankly the police are a danger to women. the other side of it is that because there's not been too much done about elements of it they've convict rates, it and they've convict in rates, as it were, it's pretty low that actually isn't really actually there isn't really a genuine towards women. genuine threat towards women. what's truth ? good what's the truth? well, good afternoon , patrick. it's really afternoon, patrick. it's really worrying . these are really worrying. these are really worrying. these are really worrying figures because . when worrying figures because. when you when you mention the 1, it means only 13 of them. it was actually only 13 people got sacked. and when you look at the complaints, nine out of ten complaints, nine out of ten complaints coming from the pubuc complaints coming from the public were closed without any further action. seven out of ten from colleague of police officers were closed with no further action. and to me is a real concern . it means that even real concern. it means that even when you raise a concern as a

police officer, if you raise concerns about a colleague and you say, i'm working david carrick and i'm concerned about his behaviour the likelihood of that case closed without any action at all was seven out of ten. a real worry now. now, this kind of the nub of it, really, because do you, in your heart of hearts , believe then that there hearts, believe then that there are cover ups and that things are cover ups and that things are deliberately not prosecuted it will result in sackings ? and it will result in sackings? and you do not believe . well, what, you do not believe. well, what, 99% of cases are not genuine ? 99% of cases are not genuine? absolutely i believe that there are cover ups and i believe it is people looking out for each other because . one of the other because. one of the biggest issues that we've got with this complaints type is that it with this complaints type is thatitis with this complaints type is that it is the police investigating themselves . so one investigating themselves. so one day i could be working tariq and cousins and laughing at their jokes. next i'm part of the complaints or the corruption unit and i'm investigating my

mates that i worked with last week. there is no independence at all. so obviously it's going to be a nod and a wink if you've been complicit you've been involved. so it's police marking their own homework . and i their own homework. and i absolutely do categoric say this is a cover up cover up. there is no transparency . and it needs to no transparency. and it needs to be looked at immediately. all right. so say i have a hypothetical daughter . and right. so say i have a hypothetical daughter. and as i'm raising , hypothetical daughter. and as i'm raising, i would hypothetical daughter. and as i'm raising , i would normally i'm raising, i would normally say to her if are in danger and you're on your own and it's you should look for police officer. would i be forgiven for telling her to not look a police officer because that might pose a threat. patrick i would say to any woman out there whether, she's your daughter or not, please do call the police if you're in danger , pick up the you're in danger, pick up the phone a majority police phone because a majority police officers good, caring officers are good, caring individuals . it's a minority individuals. it's a minority that haven't been dealt with, that haven't been dealt with, that haven't been sacked and have been gotten rid of. but

have not been gotten rid of. but the majority of police officers are there to do the right thing. and any woman, any young person, man woman , anybody who needs man or woman, anybody who needs help should pick up that phone. and when look at these and when we look at these figures, my concern is that people to lose even people are going to lose even more and confidence. and more trust and confidence. and they're going to the they're not going to pick the phone up or they're not going to go into the police station and ask on go into the police station and ask or. look. thank you ask for help or. look. thank you very stuff that parm very much. great stuff that parm sandhu is former chief sandhu that is a former chief superintendent breaking down those yes. more than superintendent breaking down thosepolice yes. more than superintendent breaking down those police officers/iore than superintendent breaking down those police officers basically , 1500 police officers basically, of violence , women and girls. of violence, women and girls. i mean, it's shocking stuff. and i suppose that quotes, quotes, conviction rate, action rate, really would be a better way of putting it at 1. i mean, i think anyone with eyes and ears and a brain in their head to fully realise that it's not 99% of those claims we made those claims that we made against police bogus. i mean against the police bogus. i mean clearly be can clearly that can't be true, can it, so we go no loads. have it, so that we go no loads. have you been in touch with you been getting in touch with your thoughts on the disgraced musician glitter, convicted musician gary glitter, convicted of charges being of child sex abuse charges being sent to prison just month sent back to prison just a month after was released on

category c prison and that's where he's spent the last eight years. he was released in february , half his 16 yearjail february, half his 16 year jail term for rape. four counts of indecent assault and one of having sex with a girl under 13. so this goes back to attacks when he was at the height of his fame in the 1970s. two girls aged 11 and 12. he invited them backstage to his dressing room and then assaulted them and then 1975, he tried to climb into bed with a girl who even ten years old at the time now these allegations came to light when the metropolitan police launched operation yewtree in wake of the jemmy savile scandal, and he was subsequently jailed in 2015. but the moment he's been recalled to jail, following those media reports that he was trying to access the dark wood, that's the part of the incident, the hidden parts of internet where a lot of criminality takes place and where a lot of are said to exchange images of children .

exchange images of children. he's back in prison now and the parole board will decide whether to release him in due course so. indeed. loophole. thank you very much for bringing us the latest on that paul hawkins days outside the ministry of justice for us and ladies and gentlemen it massive story when it was a massive story when he was released covered it extensively here a load people saying why earth is this guy saying why on earth is this guy allowed only served allowed out? he had only served half crimes half his sentence. the crimes that committed that he committed were absolutely, and absolutely, completely and utterly heinous. hard to imagine absolutely, completely and utterlycrimest. hard to imagine absolutely, completely and utterlycrimes relatively» imagine absolutely, completely and utterlycrimes relatively than gine worse crimes relatively than crimes, of course, of paedophilia . earlier we were paedophilia. earlier we were saying why has been released saying why has he been released and within a is and then within a month is breach conditions and he's breach his conditions and he's back in prison. he's not the only person of similar is it only person of similar ilk is it to done some things to have done some things similar? cases of similar? we've had the cases of colin pitchfork and it colin pitchfork example and it does to us question does lead to us the question whether or not ever be rehabilitated. i'm going to delve psychology it very delve the psychology of it very shortly i'm also going to be shortly. i'm also going to be asking frankly what the punishment because punishment should be because some a some people, well, it's a psychological illness , it's psychological illness, it's a compulsion. i don't thing compulsion. now, i don't thing that are saying it in a that people are saying it in a way their more way that makes their more forgivable , but i think it's an

forgivable, but i think it's an explanation , isn't it? other explanation, isn't it? other people lot just out and people say this lot just out and out, pure evil and should remain shackled in solitary confinement for the remainder of their lives. and this is another thing as well, because gary glitter as well can't see prison well is in i can't see prison now. i've never been to a prison, but from what we've been told, it's relatively cushy. it's certainly not maximum security, etc, a lot of people are saying, well, that's not even harsh enough if he is going to serve the rest of his life in prison, should it not be in the harshest possible conditions as well? and i've asking you well? and i've been asking you whether you that whether or not you think that they rehabilitated. they can ever be rehabilitated. and no can never and catherine says no can never change trusted. they change or be trusted. they should least serve should at the very least serve the sentence. ideally they the full sentence. ideally they should get a life sentence. yeah. where stand that? yeah. where do you stand that? should get a mandatory should they get a mandatory life sentence without parole? of course. side of this course. the other side of this again it cost the taxpayer to again is it cost the taxpayer to keep people in prison for keep these people in prison for the rest their natural lives. the rest of their natural lives. isn't and as ever, when we cover stories like this the death penalty debate its head. penalty debate rears its head. other forms , well, like other forms, well, things like chemical lot of chemical castration. a lot of people touch about people getting in touch about

all . people are saying all of that. people are saying that. i've just got one here all of that. people are saying that. from ust got one here all of that. people are saying that. from jonathan ne here all of that. people are saying that. from jonathan .5 here all of that. people are saying that. from jonathan . heere all of that. people are saying that. from jonathan . he says that from from jonathan. he says that paedophilia a sexual paedophilia is a sexual preference cannot preference that cannot be changed. and that that changed. and he says that that can't changed. lock them can't be changed. lock them up as is cure . so that's as there is no cure. so that's from john. but keep your emails in. have a stack of in. we will have a stack of guests throughout the guests on this throughout the course show. so make sure course of the show. so make sure you stay for all of that. but i'm just dipping into another story the story now because it's the spnng story now because it's the spring tomorrow with the spring budget tomorrow with the chancellor tackling chancellor set to put tackling economic inactivity at the forefront his plans. jeremy forefront of his plans. jeremy hunt is expected address hunt is expected to address changes childcare benefits, changes to childcare benefits, alcohol fuel duty bills, alcohol and fuel duty bills, pendulums, the and say he's addressing the economy and if you're a smoker you might want to consider putting down the over my toned body i smoke his face the biggest o biggest of a price hike on the hard to find out this way the biggest ever price hike cigarette to date. price hike on cigarette to date. joining me in the studio is joining me now in the studio is our business and editor liam halligan with on the money . halligan with on the money. money brakes patrick to take up

vaping some sharks. money brakes patrick to take up vaping some sharks . yeah okay vaping some sharks. yeah okay all right so in the round what is the damage. all right so in the round what is the damage . well i think is the damage. well i think tomorrow we're going to get what jeremy will style as a budget for growth but i think a lot of people the tory backbenchers i think a lot of people across the economy will think it's quite an ungenerous there won't be massive spending rises , there massive spending rises, there won't be big bangs to firms and households and there certainly won't be much in the way of tax cuts. i'm led believe jeremy hunt will will will try to make a virtue of the fact that it's a steady as you go boring budget and i think point to the financial term . well we've seen financial term. well we've seen a lot of ups and downs on global markets in the last 24, 48 hours after that bank in america went bust, the silicon valley bank. and of course, it's subsidiary, the uk subsidiary , being bought the uk subsidiary, being bought by europe's biggest bank, hsbc. i wouldn't say that financial turmoil is nothing hugely to worry about yet, but a lot of

regulators, a lot of traders are keeping a watching brief on it. and jeremy hunt will use that term to say this is why we need a steady as you go no fireworks budget yet woody you've said that anyway . is this just the that anyway. is this just the kind of guy. yes, i think it has done that but i done that anyway. but i think the of silicon valley the collapse of silicon valley bank, as long as it doesn't turn into a full blown crisis. we're not that it's not not expecting that it's not completely but it completely impossible but if it does just happen to be a school to use a kind of mariner's synonym, if you like as long as it turns out to be just a school, it's quite handy . jeremy school, it's quite handy. jeremy hunt and the treasury, because he jeremy from accountancy is mr. steady eddie is a bit beige you know oscar's copper as opposed a red oscars. yeah carpet and he doesn't want to do much that will frighten the horses a lot of people on the backbenches will say they won't be raising corporation tax from 19 to 25% the first rise in 25 years won't you bringing in tax cuts one you're helping to get

this economy moving so we can finally escape from covid lockdown, finally escape from the torpor of , this war in the torpor of, this war in ukraine. some people say a little bit like when we went into iraq and that didn't go particularly for us. and then the follow up to was when we didn't necessary intervene in syria when we quite possibly should what truss did should have. what liz truss did was is about ten eight. i remember you saying at the 45 the in the top rate of tax at a time when so many people would to pay their bills. millions of i thought it was ten eight and it backfires . okay. do you think it backfires. okay. do you think the answer no. we're now going to be overcautious ? i think we to be overcautious? i think we are being overcautious. and i've said for some months. said that for some months. i think the office of responsibility has been overcautious . i the bank overcautious. i think the bank of england its forecast thing of england in its forecast thing has overcautious. these has been overcautious. these bodies predicting bodies have been predicting recession for a long. the economy contracted for two successive quarters. i said that wouldn't happen. so far i've been proved right. we shall see. there's a long way to go. yes, there's still a cost of living

crisis. yes. the is still shouldering a of debt. on the other hand, it's a lot less debt than they thought than we thought they'd be shouldering now because they're paying less on interest, because the on their interest, because the debt is smaller , they're debt itself is smaller, they're paying debt itself is smaller, they're paying energy subsidies paying less on energy subsidies because energy prices because wholesale energy prices have actually come down and they're paying less government borrowing in general, because taxation receipts have been higher than they expected . so higher than they expected. so we've got in the finance accounts what we call fiscal headroom has got some room for manoeuvre to do some more spending , to do some tax cuts if spending, to do some tax cuts if he wants . but i just think he wants. but i just think ideologues likely he doesn't want to cynically, you could say he wants to save up those tax cuts until just before an election . and the election election. and the election probably won't be. and so you're late 2024. so probably be the budget this time next year though when he goes for the tax. thatis though when he goes for the tax. that is interesting very interesting . liam, thank you interesting. liam, thank you very much. and you're going to be this tomorrow, big be all over this tomorrow, big day tomorrow day, big day. your glass embrace because the liam

halligan now you make some business wave on the business that is a wave on the money right. okay, moving so money right. okay, moving on. so the been jailed for the woman has been jailed for lying about groomed and lying about being groomed and raped by guy. yes. we will. from one of those falsely accused. i'm patrick christys . this is gb i'm patrick christys. this is gb news. hello there i hurst. welcome to your latest broadcast from the met office . still have from the met office. still have wintry showers across the uk at the moment in cold arctic air frost and ice quite wide tonight before turning wetter and before turning mother wetter and windier and thursday can see windier. and thursday we can see nicely on the bigger picture. cold day across the uk denoted by the blue. but however, as we move through wednesday and thursday, atlantic weather systems in bringing and systems move in bringing and windy weather outbreaks of rain, sleet and snow pushing .

others, asian as well. she shared a photo of herself injured, but the court heard she had done this with herself sorry to herself with a hammer. me now in the studio is our home security is mark white. mark the details of this case beggars belief. really? yeah i mean, these are complex sets of allegations that were made by this young woman over a period of time. and among other , she of time. and among other, she claimed that she had been raped and abused by an asian grooming gang. that is, of course , issue gang. that is, of course, issue that the authorities perhaps belatedly are taking seriously . belatedly are taking seriously. and of that was the subject where very detailed investigation showed because she had gone to the trouble of effectively beating herself up. we can show you a picture on screen for those watching on television. it's you know, pretty graphic, but it is an illustration of the lengths that this young woman went . bruising this young woman went. bruising the eye as had picked up a

hammer she'd bottle it in a local supermarket it and effectively smashed herself in the face even cut off a finger to try to give credibility her story of claiming you could see the image there. as say you know it's not and the authorities faced that took what she said very seriously. what do you wouldn't you. yeah you would you. and look, before we move the potentially bigger stuff of this and what it might mean going forward as well. do we know why she decided to do ? know why she decided to do? there is no reason to. it has been given a none that have been offered in court with psychiatric prosecution. so psychiatrists said that this woman was immature for her age, that she had anger issues, but there was no underlying psychiatric problem . a defence psychiatric problem. a defence psychiatry has said that the was

delayed or ptsd resulting from childhood trauma but didn't give any indication what this childhood trauma supposedly was. and the judge sided with this psychiatrist for the prosecution . there was no underlying psychiatric , no real reason for psychiatric, no real reason for doing what she did except to really mess up the lives of a number of men who were falsely accused, including one bond called muhammad ramzan from barrow in furness, a local businessman who had really his businessman who had really his business ruined by this is house targeted by angry mobs as vehicle damage and tried to kill himself. this what he said outside preston crown although it says there's no witness here today. it says there's no witness here today . i feel no sense of today. i feel no sense of triumph , only sadness for the triumph, only sadness for the loss of years, the impact on my

family. here we are on the true impact this will have on drew. that's the loss of slavery and sexual abuse as. that's the loss of slavery and sexual abuse as . a father and an sexual abuse as. a father and an . uncle to my amazing girls . . uncle to my amazing girls. this fills me profound sadness would perform this performance on my sister's. would perform this performance on my sister's . only the love on my sister's. only the love and unwavering support of every support of my family enabled to be endured . nightmare to give me be endured. nightmare to give me the strength i needed needed . the strength i needed needed. and she still that what she said is true for the bulk of the allegations . yes, she still allegations. yes, she still claims that many of these crimes alleged crimes did happen . but alleged crimes did happen. but the prosecution and the jury obviously believed the prosecution are quite clear that

they were all made up the issues where she said that she had been trafficked, that been they tried . traffickers to sell her to pakistan, that she'd been injected with heroin to make her more compliant as she , you know, more compliant as she, you know, to perform sex with multiple . to perform sex with multiple. all of that was false and the picture assuming outlook clearly can acknowledge and should acknowledge that it was utterly horrific to be falsely accused of anything especially this and the real life impact that this had on people involved. three of them, i think, have attempted suicide . the wider aspect for suicide. the wider aspect for me, anyway, will be a concern that genuine grooming gang cases are now potentially impacted as are now potentially impacted as a result of this one, not being true, being fabricated . yeah, true, being fabricated. yeah, but i mean, you know, it's not

grooming gangs, though. it's claims made by proper, bona fide victims are being undermined by what's happened here. it's not just an allegation that she made against or about being groomed she made multiple allegations about multiple people asians and young women and as well claiming that she'd been raped and sexually so what it absolutely doesis sexually so what it absolutely does is you know cause issues quite rightly not quite rightly but you know i know don't you mean it causes for other victims of crime want their allegations to be taken seriously and it also raises of course, concerns about the in which those that are accused of serious sexual offences are named. there's been a debate for a number of years as to whether they should have

the same kind of anonymity that a victim of a sexual offence has until or unless they are convicted of that crime because of course, once that name is out there in the public realm , it there in the public realm, it doesn't matter that if at some point down road they're acquitted, not guilty of that particular or there is no to case answer in the first place and it doesn't even get to court. these people that have been accused of serious offences , this will tell you, you know , , this will tell you, you know, many people just still don't believe them. they believe and, you know , that old adage that you know, that old adage that there's no smoke without fire, you know, mud sticks , whatever you know, mud sticks, whatever you know, mud sticks, whatever you want to use a very difficult when serious allegations like this have been made against you . shake them off. look, mark, thank you much about why all home and security bring you the latest on that particular case, which is i think we can all agree, disturbing on many, many different terrible different levels. and terrible for all those involved were falsely accused on the

catastrophic impact that's held on their terrible as on their lives. terrible as going forward, we talk a lot. only about grooming gangs and how be cover how there appeared to be cover ups certainly a blind turn. ups or certainly a blind i turn. when it comes to grooming gangs rise country and rise up and down the country and all especially certain all of this, especially certain sections the media. sections of the media. well, this is going to do any this is not going to do any favours, is it, for people who want the real true extent of the grooming crisis, britain, want the real true extent of the groomingout, crisis, britain, want the real true extent of the groomingout, crknow,ritain, want the real true extent of the groomingout, crknow, someone to come out, you know, someone falsely people in this way. i'm just going to into the just going to delve into the inbox because i've got a lot coming on. we are coming your way later on. we are to talk about i went out about earlier on today and spoke to people and people just ordinary men and women on the street to see whether not they felt as whether or not they felt as though had a bias, one though the bbc had a bias, one way other. i'll bring you way or the other. i'll bring you their very. that was their views very. that was fascinating. and crucially well, whether or not they pay a voluntary to the voluntary subscription to the bbc might netflix bbc like we might do for netflix or prime if the tv or amazon prime if the tv licence removed. i suppose licence was removed. i suppose so. range of people there so. a wide range of people there actually some actually and got some fascinating you them fascinating i'll bring you them shortly but i just to return to something we're leading something that we're leading the show going to be show with and we're going to be discussing course discussing throughout the course it glitter now

patrick yes . welcome back, everybody. yes. welcome back, everybody. loads of you mean in touch? your thoughts on the disgrace . thoughts on the disgrace. musician gary glitter, convicted child sex abuse charges . he's child sex abuse charges. he's being sent back to prison now just over a month after he was released on probation. look, mel says , paedophilia is says, paedophilia is a compulsive addiction . an compulsive addiction. an internal malfunction in. the brain with no remorse and no conscience. gary glitter should behind a high fence. and i'm dwelling on this because are lots of different elements to this, because whether or not he and people like him by the way, call him pitchfork again we're seeing who a pretty seeing who served a pretty lengthy time in prison lengthy amount of time in prison for not quite the same crime, of course, similar. who is course, but similar. who is recalled very, very quickly after a release and. it leads me to the question whether or not these people can ever be rehabilitated and what should be done with them . indeed, they done with them. indeed, they can't be, louise says. i think will find it all down to the parole board. it's down to sentencing. yep, fair enough. which need change? which obviously need to change? yes. an important yes. that is an important distinction. up distinction. it will be up to the parole board whether not

he's released again in future. but have seen recent cases, but we have seen recent cases, haven't like john haven't we? people like john worboys, example, where the worboys, for example, where the parole involved and parole board were involved and came to many regard came to what many would regard as decision, as being the wrong decision, there. and it question of there. and it is a question of whether always whether or not they always really what best public really know what is best public safety. says, i work with safety. betty says, i work with a prison charity. i'm of. the people visited was a. when due people i visited was a. when due to released a bag not to. to be released a bag not to. yeah as he knew. no matter how much tried he would end up committing offences again . the committing offences again. the prison said they could prison service said they could not we had to find not keep him so we had to find a remote place for this man to move and, live out his days. and you know what? i'm that you've emailed betty emailed in about that betty because no one i think what i would hope anyway no one not even the most ardent and sympathetic psychologist alive would way, shape or form would in any way, shape or form be to make an excuse for be looking to make an excuse for the violent, depraved of the violent, depraved actions of paedophilia. but they come potentially be an explanation which is there is some massive mental defect and leads to compulsive behaviour that cannot be controlled by the individual and even if that is the case

even if that is the case and these people just out and out evil even if that is the case, what do we do them that because you can't really want to think you can't really want to think you should anyway released them out into society and wait for them to act on it again and then recall them because a life is ruined in the process. isn't it? a is ruined. and even if a life is ruined. and even if they are accessing things online, bearing as the online, bearing in as well, the guy who it was pictured guy who gets it was pictured appearing to be asking people how access dark web. we how to access the dark web. we all the kind of depravity all know the kind of depravity that dark web and what that lives on dark web and what he may have been up to. so even if it's just things like accessing those accessing pictures, those pictures people who accessing pictures, those picthaving people who accessing pictures, those picthaving their people who accessing pictures, those picthaving their livesaople who accessing pictures, those picthaving their lives ruined/ho are having their lives ruined before i just before your very eyes. i just can't help feel as, though can't help but feel as, though these people should maybe be locked away ever a lot. are locked away for ever a lot. are you in, the death you getting in, say, the death penalty? of people are penalty? a lot of people are saying well, voluntary saying as well, voluntary chemical am chemical castration. and i am fascinated views on fascinated to get your views on this. going to be talking this. we're going to be talking to psychological shortly. to psychological very shortly. and a debate and have a bit of a debate really about whether not these people should have mandatory life sentences . make sure you life sentences. make sure you keep your eyes for that. keep your eyes peeled for that. keep coming in. gb

keep your views coming in. gb views gb news .uk stating that because we have inside track because we have the inside track on first reaction over on tory first reaction over rishi the boats plan, find rishi sunak the boats plan, find out what the prime minister's critics want instead. it might surprise you. patrick surprise you. i'm patrick christys is

gb news. okay. well, a couple out of those people because one of them is championing of the government's illegal migration bill appears to be off bill appears to be paying off with the legislation having passed second in the passed its second reading in the commons but numerous commons last night. but numerous conservative did not vote. conservative mp did not vote. there's a mixed bag here because . demonstrators protested against the bill, obviously, which to tackle small boat crossings in the channel barring those come to britain those who come to britain illegally from claiming asylum and removed from the and being removed from the country. critics say that the plan may violate european convention on human rights , and convention on human rights, and they say that it's too cruel in its provisions. but with me now is gb news is political reporter olivia utley, because there's

very much another side to this. when people talking was when people were talking was some of tory rebellion. some kind of tory rebellion. they were thinking that they wanted those protests wanted join those protests outside westminster, soften the thing, it down always and thing, water it down always and say awful. what a horrible little, country little, uncompassionate country we but actually, we really are. but actually, there growing number of there are growing number of conservative base who don't . and conservative base who don't. and this far enough. this bill goes far enough. olivia so what happens last olivia yes. so what happens last night was the bill passed at second reading, although there were a number of abstentions from those on the left of the tory party who , believe that tory party who, believe that this you say of is this bill, as you say of is cruel migrant . every single cruel to migrant. every single conservative mp actually voted with the government on this bill. but we're now going into stage and what we're expecting the committee stage is a rebellion the right of the conservative party who are worried that this bill just doesn't have the that it needs to actually get anything done. so that concern is that bill states that migrants come here illegally, can be deported to a third country. yes they worry that these deportations won't actually be able to happen

because all just so tangled up in the human courts. so what they want to do is for britain to leave european convention of human rights , european human human rights, european human rights altogether , and so be no rights altogether, and so be no longer subject to restriction. now i was like, you've covering show for dan wootton months ago this flight everyone the plane was on the tarmac and we were almost doing plane watch . we had almost doing plane watch. we had it on the corner of the screen and never forget this. we just saw the lights on the plane go out. people being led off in the lines of the airport go out and everyone packed up and went home. were like, well, home. and we were like, well, what's going and what what's going on there? and what they want some these they don't want some of these jumps happen for that to jumps to happen is for that to happen again. and see it happen again. and we can see it coming mile off can't we. coming a mile off can't we. legal challenges. surprise, surprise. being surprise. the boat is not being stopped in this kind stopped and we're in this kind of vortex of inaction when it comes to actually tackling the migrant people migrant crisis, because people say we can't leave say, oh, well, we can't leave the we leave. european the echr. we leave. european court rights because court of human rights because that would allowing us with belarus russia but

belarus loose and russia but couldn't we just do something else that wouldn't make us belarus and russia? well, yes, exactly . are there are exactly. are there are conservative mps who believe that we should leave the european human right to think that we why would we be belarus or whatever if we be or whatever if we not be australia or canada? not every single civilised country in the world is in the european court of human rights. and what you were saying that i mean, i was talking to a very senior conservative mp today who was suggesting that actually ahead with this legislation without leaving the echr , he believes, leaving the echr, he believes, would be worse than doing at all. because, as you say the way that voters would see it, what they want is with the small boat. so what they'll be looking for they'll be able to watch. they'll be waiting for action. and if these deportations just keep getting so up in keep getting so tangled up in the human rights that the european human rights that they actually see they don't actually see any migrants leaving rwanda , it migrants leaving for rwanda, it will as a big loss. migrants leaving for rwanda, it will as a big loss . the will be seen as a big loss. the government the government government and the government may better leaving may have been better leaving it with fudge it was. i'm with the fudge that it was. i'm telling now something with the fudge that it was. i'm tellingweird now something with the fudge that it was. i'm tellingweird will something with the fudge that it was. i'm

tellingweird will happening with the fudge that it was. i'm tellingweird will happen with really weird will happen with the psychology , which is the public psychology, which is that public the next that the public at the next election look at rishi election will look at rishi sunak and his to stop the sunak and his plan to stop the boats and they he's not boats and they will. he's not stop boats and they will stop the boats and they will vote for a man who never wanted to stop the boats begin with. to stop the boats to begin with. and what will happen and that is what will happen now is will happen. suella is what will happen. suella braverman interesting braverman though an interesting says she is says home secretary now she is in favour was leaving echr, isn't she . so what's she going isn't she. so what's she going to do about this? well yes, this is a this is very interesting dynamic, as you say, because about months ago, suella braverman were forward braverman were move forward to a think tank pamphlet saying, braverman were move forward to a think tank pamphlet saying , that think tank pamphlet saying, that the pamphlet was saying that should leave the echr and solve the problem going forward. saying, yes, she agrees that that would be right thing to that would be the right thing to do. of course, that caused do. well, of course, that caused a a ruckus because she's a bit of a ruckus because she's the secretary government the home secretary government policy stay policy is that we should stay within the echr. so at the moment, suella braverman and rishi sunak have managed to find enough ground with this enough common ground with this immigration bill which would work around the european court of human rights. but if there is

this big rebellion, which we are expecting to see and i spoke to senior conservatives who say that legislation for this that the legislation for this amendment, essentially amendment, which essentially that britain leave the that britain should leave the echr has already been drafted it is going to be tabled and over 50 conservative mp are going to support it. then it's going to be quite awkward between suella braverman . i should be put in an braverman. i should be put in an awkward situation because i think british public is sick think the british public is sick and this. like i said, and tired of this. like i said, this it this vortex of inaction. it comes across . well, that said, comes across. well, that said, i mean, rishi sunak what he's deeply concerned that deeply concerned about is that being a counter rebellion from the of the sort of more liberal side of the sort of more liberal side of the conservative party, like robert a lot robert buckland, who hold a lot sway within the conservative party, damian who is so party, damian green, who is so far supporting these far supporting the bill. these people important too to people are important too to rishi sunak's chances of electoral success and doesn't want to annoy them. so it is a balance that he's got to strike. thank you very much, olivia utley. now political reporter bringing you up to date on the inside track here that a inside track here that we have a gb a brewing tory gb news of a brewing tory rebellion from people who want us to ditch the echr and frankly take control laws

take back control of our laws and, borders, so that can and, our borders, so that we can actually people deported actually get people deported faster all. faster or frankly, at all. really? get moving on. really? let me get moving on. according to new figures by the national police chiefs council , national police chiefs council, more than 1500 police officers have been accused of violence against and girls over a against women and girls over a six month with less than six month period with less than 1% of resulting a sacking 1% of cases, resulting a sacking just over half of the cases were conducted , usually raised conducted, usually raised internally , and the remaining internally, and the remaining were complaints from the public, with reported offences ranging from sexual attacks to excessive force during arrest a national threat assessment of scale of violence against women and girls is due to be made in the next month and it poses the question which will ask now, which is whether or not women actually are safe, not just on the streets in general, but with our police officers, which i think is pretty bleak, it? is pretty bleak, isn't it? charlotte chaudry a former charlotte chaudry is a former detective at detective superintendent at the metropolitan police. thank you very joining us. i'm very much forjoining us. i'm going to ask you a question . if going to ask you a question. if i had a daughter, should i be telling her that if she's in distress, that she's on the road

at she should at night, that she should looking for a police officer or no? the trust in place is no? look the trust in place is very, very low, but absolutely right now at that particular who else could she go to and turn to? it's really important that police do build trust and confidence. but right now , rock confidence. but right now, rock bottom. but the same time your daughter needs be protected and therefore you would give her the right advice because she wouldn't go looking to some stranger. she would all ordinarily call the police . so ordinarily call the police. so according to this 99% of complaints it's basically results , no action. i think with results, no action. i think with a brain in that has will able to say that clearly 99% of people are not making this stuff . so are not making this stuff. so what's going on then? is this some kind of large scale level cover up ? well, i there's a few cover up? well, i there's a few things. first of all, police would have to have the evidence sometime . they very quickly

sometime. they very quickly eliminated crime or , take no eliminated crime or, take no further action because i don't there's enough evidence where they actually they could have investigated further. but secondly police investigate themselves . so when you've got themselves. so when you've got perpetrators within police being the or misogynistic , sexist, the or misogynistic, sexist, racist who are perpetrators of domestic abuse and then suddenly you've got victims coming forward or there's excessive force allegations made by females in the way that they've been handled by police officers. they're not necessarily taken any further. nine out of ten complain later. police are dropped. that is absolutely appalling. and if anybody else thinks that, you know, they this is about police bashing, it's not it's about getting it right . and right now, the police are not getting it right. siobhan, thank you very, very much and challenging that. former detective superintendent at the metropolitan police and join me now is lead of national women's

group police federation national board member sue honeywell. so thank you. should women and feel threatened ? our police ? no, i threatened? our police? no, i don't think they should feel threatened by our police . we are threatened by our police. we are doing a job that is difficult and we have officers across the country dedicate , police country dedicate, police officers who are out there every putting their lives at risk . but putting their lives at risk. but we accept that one offence of police perpetrated violence really undermines tarnishes that. but the hardworking officers out there , it is officers out there, it is getting increasingly difficult to use the a few bad apples , to use the a few bad apples, isn't it. and we've had mark rowley top cop the mac coming out and saying that something along the lines of respecting a police officer in court every week for something this and that is more a few bad apples we're reading reports this now 5200 officers accused of violence towards women girls. what is

going . well police federation of going. well police federation of england and wales have been calling on police chiefs to address misogyny within policing for some time. and police perpetrated behaviours. so this is not about violence , also is not about violence, also about the culture of misogyny within policing. we are pleased to see that the police have now released these figures, albeit they are up to march 2022. i think it would be really key to see the figures moving forward as . forces across the country as. forces across the country are ensuring that their complaints processes are robust. but you are right in calling out that these numbers are too high and it needs to be addressed. and we would chiefs to continue to do so. i am very, very careful how i phrase this and i apologise in advance to anyone who is offended by what i'm about to ask. now certainly do not mean it in any way whatsoever that is in way diminishing the lived experience , horrific lived experience of people who have genuinely suffered at the hands of police

. is it in some cases, is it quite easy to accuse the police of something with no . and that of something with no. and that is why sometimes these figures might seem quite inflated when it comes to they've only taken action in these situations. is that an unfortunate fact here. sometimes people do just police officers of stuff that they've not done . i think that is right not done. i think that is right that police officers under scrutiny. you know we are here to serve the public so it's right that we have a robust process in place . but you are process in place. but you are correct , process in place. but you are correct, assuming that we do have a high number of complaints against police. but all should be investigated thoroughly and there is evidence available that need to be taken . they should be need to be taken. they should be deau need to be taken. they should be dealt with robust . so, yes, we dealt with robust. so, yes, we have a high number of complaints, but the public should expect a high service from us as police officers . from us as police officers. okay. so thank you. so, henry , okay. so thank you. so, henry, that who is the leader of

national women's group and police federation national member reacting to those shocking figures really 1500 more than 5000 police officers accused of violence towards women girls and the fact women and girls and the fact that just 1% of those cases have resulted in a sacking. so we go right. we're moving now. here's another way of definitely on here's a novel way to save on electricity bills a public swimming pool in devon has been washing machine sized special ice computers to heat their pool and the computers are surrounded oil which then captures heat produced by the machines i mean, it's quite fascinating stuff and i'm just going to throw over now to our south—west reporter jeff moody who i was hoping will be in a swimming pool, but now he's got his kit on. what's going on, geoff? you really don't want to see my man boobs. i promise you really don't. it's the way it is beautiful and warm down here. i mean, there are two facts involved here. when you have data machines that sort of store all of our data they produce a

lot of heat and it costs a lot of money to keep those machines cool. it also costs a lot of to money your swimming pool. so if you can combine two of them and have a data machine is have a data machine that is heating a swimming pool, jobs are good in peter, you're in charge this leisure centre charge of this leisure centre and around here. and other centres around here. give idea of what of give us some idea of what of a problem it was paying bills and keeping afloat . so before war in keeping afloat. so before war in ukraine, our gas bill here, exmouth leisure centre was a less than £20,000 a year. last yearit less than £20,000 a year. last year it was over £80,000 a year. so it's and that's along with a lot of other costs as well. and we're still as the leisure industry is generally recovering from covid and the pandemic. so any way in which we can reduce our energy costs would be really, welcome . this is really, really welcome. this is the first scheme in the whole country, isn't it? is hope that this can be then rolled nationwide. they're not charging you a penny for your electricity here, are you, for your energy. no, it's entirely by deepgreen. it's their project. we share the

benefits with obviously there is a benefit for them in being able to people on the cloud. so people might think that they are in the cloud actually. some of these companies are in our plant room, the benefit to is room, but the benefit to us is the from those is the generated from those is being recycled , then heating up. being recycled, then heating up. also the heat exchanger . so also the heat exchanger. so they're hoping to bring our heating costs down by 50, 60% and reduce our bill accordingly . amazing, isn't it? so when we said the picture up to the cloud, you're actually it to the pump from your local pool genius idea patrick it is jeff. thank you very much. is jeff moody or should it be jeff moving? i think after that. fascinating test for jess, can i just say spare a thought for the poor chap. to him, he couldn't hear my question to jeff. so as he was being interviewed at the first words out of jeff's mouth, well, don't want to see my well, you don't want to see my mum boobs, poor bloke must mum boobs, so poor bloke must have what show have thought, what kind of show is anyway? coming up is he on anyway? coming up following gary lineker following the gary lineker debacle, we will be debating whether wing

78 year sex was 78 year old sex offender was pictured using phone and pictured using a phone and reportedly been captured on reportedly he's been captured on video dark web video asking to how the dark web while over the of show today while over the of the show today i been asking ever i have been asking ever rehabilitated and should it also was as a society to deal the consequences of their actions should never be released. should they face the death penalty should they face chemical castration and what actions should be taken. with me now is halsey, who is a senior associate at the abuse team. hugh james solicitors, and she joins me now . now, we spoke joins me now. now, we spoke yesterday, i believe, didn't we? actually, whilst we talking about gary glitter appearing to breach his licence conditions , breach his licence conditions, well, it turned out that he was being recalled to prison that time. so, you know you were right to raise all the points that did raise. but it does make me wonder. what what what would your view be about the fact that he was ever allowed out in the place? i think this is a really difficult in terms of the question rehabilitation of sex

offenders and don't think it's necessarily excuse me a one size fits all solution . i certainly fits all solution. i certainly think it depends on the level of offending and. i think we need to be honest about that. there is a spectrum of offending when it comes to sexual abuse. i think we also need to take into account particularly the case of gary glitter that he's never shown for he's and shown remorse for what he's and he's to participate in he's refused to participate in treatment programmes while in prison . and i think those prison. and i think those factors are things that to be considered we're looking considered when we're looking at whether person who whether this is a person who should ever be released should in fact ever be released . going shortly to . i'm going to talk shortly to psychologist this to get the psychologist on this to get the kind of analysis i'm kind of mental analysis i'm going, to talk to a former police officer as well. he's got the legal the police side of things. and in your view, you you work a lot with victims presumably abuse is what do they want done when . it comes to want done when. it comes to cases like this i'm just going to emphasise again, we are going to emphasise again, we are going to jail term for to hear 16 yearjail term for sexually abusing three schoolgirls, , as schoolgirls, no remorse, as you've said, jailed in 2015, attempted rape, four counts of indecent assault, one of having

sex with a girl under the age of 13. what do your victims want done ? the victims you deal with? done? the victims you deal with? i should rephrase . i think i should rephrase. i think victims that i deal with. first of all, as a starting point want to acknowledge what's happened to acknowledge what's happened to them and apologise for it in the context of the civil justice system, work system, which is what i work with in in the context of the criminal justice system. obviously, want the obviously, they want the perpetrator convicted and perpetrator to be convicted and to sentence and i think to serve sentence and i think when you look at this case, he's received a 16 year sentence and only served eight. again, looking at other factors that i mentioned where he's shown no remorse and has refused to refuse to participate in treatment programs . you know, treatment programs. you know, that's real for the victims that's a real for the victims and survivors is that i actually half of in your view do you think that it's too easy for people to game the system. i've people to game the system. i've people get in touch claiming to in wings prisons and groups as well where they say that some

kind of quote unquote rehabilitation that take place essentially what to say in order to be able to be released . yeah to be able to be released. yeah i've heard that too. i think there's some concerns around a bunch of being in prison together and getting together and swapping notes . that's and swapping notes. that's something that you hear often . i something that you hear often. i think thing that we need think another thing that we need to fact that to look at, the fact that allowed to change their names when they're released prison and we're relying on them to then probation that changed their name. so you know there is a lot of issues around this entire system that we as a society really need to get to grips with in order to keep kids safe. yeah, indeed and look, do you in your own experience working in this field, do see high rates reoffending? do see people who almost compulsively can't help themselves behaving like this ? i themselves behaving like this? i do. i mean, i often say when i'm working with clients, sadly you

really rarely ever see just one victim. and sadly often happens is that you see that there were victims and people knew about the abuse and could have done something about it didn't. and that includes institutions very much and it meant that there much so. and it meant that there were many, many more that followed. so in my experience, it's very rare to just one victim. and so i think that that does really answer question of re—offending . these people are re—offending. these people are sick and frankly they're predators. i mean, i think that's really how we to describe them and we need to think of them and we need to think of them in terms. yeah, look, thank you very much for joining us again and. it's crazy to have you show discussing to you on the show discussing to see is senior associate see there is a senior associate in the abuse team at huge solicitors just to solicitors just want to emphasise katrina emphasise again katrina we're talking this show around talking live on this show around this yesterday then this time yesterday and then just hour it just about an hour later it emerged glitter had been emerged gary glitter had been recalled to prison. want to recalled to prison. i want to just into the inbox on this, because i have been you all your views on it gbviews@gbnews.uk. he's a monster. says susan. he should be locked and have the should be locked up and have the key away and no access

key thrown away and no access ever to. children i don't know what his actual sentence was, but years. he served but it was 16 years. he served eight a bit. he should eight and a bit. but he should be for the entire time . be locked for the entire time. he's this the thing that wasn't set because then. right, so set because then. all right, so let's he's locked for the let's say he's locked for the entire time now. well, then, if he survives i think 78 he survives i think he's 78 years now, he survives years old now, if he survives and back out and about and he's back out and about getting and getting another eight years and presumably still threat presumably he's still threat thatis presumably he's still threat that is he so is good enough. it's not enough for people it's not good enough for people again loads of people here saying frankly chemical saying look frankly chemical castration in castration is the only way in general about here general that talking about here there to overcome there are problems to overcome with what's with rehabilitation what's the solution he frankly this solution. he says frankly this is this is from darrel who basically says that we should just castrate . so there you go. just castrate. so there you go. there's a lot of this going around the minute. and again, i want as well lot of want to emphasise as well lot of people to say people getting in touch to say that work in of prisons that work in wings of prisons and hospital etc. that deal specifically with and the all of those people who were getting in touch me who i will not name obvious reasons saying that in their there is no such thing as rehabilitation. to

rehabilitation. but i want to get the now of a get the views now of a psychotherapy based on this. lucy berry's first joins me. lucy, thank. look of paid lucy, thank. look kind of paid off. rehabilitated as off. i'll be rehabilitated as kathleen said in your previous conversation, it a little bit more complicated than because some of the people who do get jailed looking at child abuse images are not necessary what you would describe as a they are probably more of the kind of person who has an adult sexual orientation but their use of so warped that they ended watching child abuse perhaps only once and they've ended up with a criminal record. and as a result , some kind of re—offend lending program and rehabilitation program and rehabilitation program would actually be very effective with , those people. effective with, those people. but if you're talking about a one, as you've just given the example of gary glitter, who was actually refused to have any or any therapy involved . and then any therapy involved. and then it does beg the question to

whether they want to be rebuilt stated and if they don't want to be repaid, then i don't necessarily see why society should actually look to release them . i want to focus on i hear them. i want to focus on i hear what you say. i absolutely hear what you say. i absolutely hear what say. and there is it's an uncomfortable thing to discuss of course but there is very much a sliding scale , i suppose, when a sliding scale, i suppose, when it comes to the kind of you're talking about. and gary glass's case, mean, in 2015 for case, i mean, jailed in 2015 for attempted rape for counts of indecent assault one indecent assault and one of actually having a girl actually having sex with a girl the age of 13. so he's gone with it on a large scale show, no remorse , etc. even if he wanted remorse, etc. even if he wanted to. and there are a lot of people out there like caricature, even if wanted to be rehabilitated , could they rehabilitated, could they actually be because ? we do hear actually be because? we do hear interviews from people who say , interviews from people who say, i will always be a danger society. i can't stop got i'm warped . where do you stand on warped. where do you stand on that so i would argue that it is unfortunately sliding scale that for every who does say that i

yes i could rehabilitated please give me help and treatment that might involve castration that actually if we are talking a sexual orientation and that is geared towards children then thatis geared towards children then that is very unlikely to change that is very unlikely to change that orientation because that's something that will be whereas you might have someone who as i say, has very different outlook and has perhaps looked at some of the child abuse material because actually become a new immune to the getting the highs that they get from watching adult. so i believe that there are some candidates for it, but the jury is still out. the research age in the uk in america , in canada is very america, in canada is very unclear as to whether what we're really talking about is a sexual orientation problem or are we talking about a moral issue and. if it's more of a moral issue , if it's more of a moral issue, then you would argue that you would be able to rehabilitate

some of these offenders . but some of these offenders. but it's just a question whether they've actually got the motivation do that as well. my argument would be is if they're not prepared to find that motivation, then they shouldn't actually be given parole just quietly and finally on this issue, would you if you were asked by a board or probation service or something like that , service or something like that, would you ever feel comfort able, say rackham , a for release able, say rackham, a for release of the yoke of gary ? let's say of the yoke of gary? let's say we're not talking about someone whose a couple of images or whatever , as bad as that is, whatever, as bad as that is, someone who's actually through and right to child. would you ever be comfortable in your professional recommending them for release ? it would take them for release? it would take them lot of persuading for me to think that that person had actually been to kerb something is very innate to all of us, which is our sexual orientation that actually we say very

frequent early that we're not to here change someone's sexual orientation . in fact the therapy orientation. in fact the therapy that reports to do that is actually shameful should be banned. so don't see why this should be any different. i personally would feel very uncomfortable that and as you say it isn't just things that have happened in the gary glitter example in the uk, but he's thrown of other he's thrown out of other countries because the countries because of the behaviour carried out. but behaviour he's carried out. but nevertheless unless somebody subscribe to a really, really watered program of therapy and tagging for the rest of their lives, we are talking probably about something that is innate . about something that is innate. it is part of their sexual orientation . lucy thank you very orientation. lucy thank you very much. lucy who is psychotherapist giving an insight into , frankly, the insight into, frankly, the dangers of ever like anyone like our glasses. back out to on the streets now. okay. moving on, people. we are moving on because we are day off. the chancellor's spnng we are day off. the chancellor's spring budget with jeremy hunt set announcements set to make announcements including, corporation tax hikes extending , the current energy

extending, the current energy price guarantee as well as measures on childcare , public measures on childcare, public sector. essentially we are less than day away now from finding than a day away now from finding out to happen to out what is about to happen to the pocket. and the money your pocket. and i know especially times this know especially times like this people concerned people very, very concerned that. but we be facing that. but could we be facing penod that. but could we be facing period of economic turmoil because hunt's budget comes at a very shaky time in the. shockwaves from that collapse of the silicon valley that rippling on. so what might the future hold for the uk economy? i've got to be honest. i woke this morning and i was seeing some of the i was thinking, the headlines. i was thinking, oh, in global territory, oh, in global crash territory, i don't shock. that was don't want to shock. that was only my view. victorian scholar joins now head of investments joins me now head of investments at interactive investor great to have on the show. first have you on the show. first thing's first can you do anyone does my blood pressure desperately me desperately try to tell me that we're not the brink of a global economic crash? please well, i can that markets are can you that the markets are actually higher today so it as though some of that turmoil is off and this is because the federal reserve us central bank and the bank england and the ecb

central banks around the world are looking the events and the collapse of sbp and thinking that this could have negative economic implications for global economy. now we've been in a rate rising cycle for over a year now we've seen interest rate hikes from the bank of england, the fed and others . england, the fed and others. perhaps those central banks are now going to put the brakes on monetary tightening because of the potential economic from sbp and are very much enjoying that prospect because remember last year that huge sell off we saw in the tech was all driven by the of interest rates and the removal of that punchbowl of cheap money that's been underpinning asset prices really since the crisis in 2008. yeah. let's localise it a bit now, victoria, and talk about the money in everyone's pockets right here. people are understandably concerned . jeremy understandably concerned. jeremy hunt is 50 shades of beige without and say i think it's fair to say some people great

this is what we need. other people say come on where's the ambition? let's go for a little bit growth and do bit of growth and try and do something exciting and boost the economy a bit more. what are we going get well, going to get. well, unfortunately you know, the lightness that the chancellor this to be a boring budget doesn't want to pull many rabbits out of the hat. he wants to send a message. he's focussed on fiscal prudence after the high levels spending during the pandemic plus. of course, government spending is inflation rate and inflation is one of the biggest economic challenges that we face right now. and it's responsible. the cost of living crisis is , why everything is crisis is, why everything is going up from fuel to energy bills to the cost of our weekly shopping supermarkets. so it is probably going to be bit of a bonng probably going to be bit of a boring budget, not for major tax cuts and we're not looking for huge spending increases . all huge spending increases. all right. look, just if you can look your crystal ball here, we're going to be the winners here we're going to be the losers hunt's big budget. losers from hunt's big budget. well, i some the focuses will well, i some of the focuses will be on childcare. this is

be firstly on childcare. this is a massive expense for parents that can often encourage them to stay home rather than going back to work and. we know that full time fees for a under two averages about £40,000 a year. so need to earn quite a lot to make it work actually go back to work so could see some changes to energy bills another one to watch at the moment they're expected to go up by £500 on average from april. but it looks as though the government's going to maintain that cap so that it'll stay somewhere around 2500 rather than going up to 3000. are looking at that corporate tax increase , 19% to 25. so, you tax increase, 19% to 25. so, you know, that's with he might try and soften that blow with some tax breaks and then of course the big focus is going to be on pubuc the big focus is going to be on public pay, which is very languishing behind private sector pay. and it's lagging behind inflation. so that's why we've seen widespread industrial

action. so hopefully the government be able to come together with some sort of pay package. public sector workers, particularly in the nhs, are going to be okay with that. victoria, thank you very, very much saying things and much for saying things and picking minefield that picking through a minefield that is beyond my intellectual is way beyond my intellectual capacity . victoria scholar. capacity. victoria scholar. that paper appropriately of paper appropriately head of investments interactive investor right ladies and gents loads more coming your way. gb news has learned that services for stationery and some tory mps are very, very unhappy with rishi. nice plan to stop the small boats crossing the channel and it's for the reason that you it's not for the reason that you might. no. it looks like they're not soft after not actually going soft after it. update on is it. we'll have an update on is promising be giant tory promising to be a giant tory revolt. stay with us on

gb news. okay, welcome back. now the government's illegal immigration bill has passed its second reading in house of commons reading in the house of commons and now pass to

and will now pass to the committee stage. are committee stage. as you are about to learn something very interesting because interesting will happen because a number the government's own a number of the government's own employees abstained. the legislation outside legislation and hundreds outside westminster . the mission to stop westminster. the mission to stop the channel crisis seems far from over . there the channel crisis seems far from over. there is a very different kind of rebellion potentially right at the heart of the conservative party and. gb news is political reporter olivia. utley has got the inside track on olivia. enlighten us so . what happened last night was the second reading of the immigration bill, the government's immigration bill pass. and there were a few murmurings in the corridors , murmurings in the corridors, westminster from a tory mp on the of the conservative party who didn't like it because they feel that it's unkind to refugees but in the end they all voted for bill voted with the government for the bill. now although the bill is going to committee and there are a number of mp on the right of the who want to propose an amendment which would cause all sorts of chaos because the amendment would essentially say that

britain should leave the european court of human rights and what government has done with the bill so far is quite go as far as say that britain as far as to say that britain should leave the echr should actually leave the echr said that can work around the said that we can work around the legislation in the european court of human rights and make that this bill doesn't contra well. the tory i've spoken to say that just work. they say it's nonsense that we can actually go ahead with deporting illegal migrants while . we're illegal migrants while. we're still in the echr because they think that what's going to happen as seen happen before is just get wound up in the courts and come to nothing . you could and come to nothing. you could argue that what they're trying to do, the quote unquote right of the tory party is save rishi from political oblivion by actually trying to make sure that he can stop the boats because people are sick and tired of seeing video footage of planes on runways supposedly taking off to rwanda only for the minute appeals and the plane not to be allowed to take off a result of some foreign judge in a foreign in the dead of night.

you never know just aren't you will never know just aren't telling in country we telling us in this country we can't some people that we can't deport some people that we don't we want to be able don't want. we want to be able to deport, you know, under the current legislation, is going current legislation, it is going to sunak to be difficult for rishi sunak actually get what he wants, isn't the senior isn't it? well the senior conservative to conservative mp who i to today said exactly same as you. he said exactly same as you. he said that actually going ahead with this bill without the echr would be worse , doing nothing at would be worse, doing nothing at all because . what people will all because. what people will see is planes on the runway unable to take off. they'll see a prime minister who tried to stop the boats and, failed to do it. i mean, said , spoke to it. i mean, that said, spoke to the of migration watch this the head of migration watch this morning a very good morning a think tank a very good this sort of thing and he thought that it is possible to go with these deportations without leaving the system difficult opinions vary but difficult so opinions vary but yes is a solid caucus tory yes there is a solid caucus tory mps i'm hearing upwards of 50 tory mps who are supportive of this bill, which is already being drafted by bill cash going go forward supportive of this which would see britain leaving the echr and we know crucially

don't we. well, yes and the most interesting fact perhaps is that suella braverman , the home suella braverman, the home secretary, has said on the record that she personally would like to see britain leave the echr now she's not planning to do anything about that , knows do anything about that, knows that it's government policy to stay in echr, but if this issue gets raised again, which it looks like it's about to, it looks like it's about to, it looks like it's about to, it looks like this. boyle about to come to the head then and rishi sunak will be in an awkward position because it'll quite hard for suella braverman to come out the record and say yes, the government is right to be pushing britain stay in the pushing britain to stay in the echr already made echr when she's already made plain personal opinion plain that her personal opinion is and she's the is that we should and she's the one copying the dispatch box when out and she's when she comes out and she's very i think it's very strong. and i think it's account some of account of some sort of providence, to be honest, usually out. she usually regularly comes out. she uses like invasion. she says things like she won't be spoken down to a bunch. whatever she down to by a bunch. whatever she says about lefties , etc. and, says about lefties, etc. and, you she comes out and says you know, she comes out and says stuff and then if she's been cut off knees potentially by off at the knees potentially by a that do

a legislature that doesn't do what wants, then how long what she wants, then how long will olivia, you will she last? olivia, thank you very you're only very much. and if you're only leader reporter, leader our political reporter, right we've got a week right okay, so we've got a week of, and of, haven't we, the bbc and lineker. the story divided opinion on many fronts, not over the political leanings . the beeb's political leanings. lineker and those who have backed the backed him within, the corporation, seen corporation, are now being seen by some example of by some as prime example of those who work there , having those who work there, having a left wing bias , pointing to the left wing bias, pointing to the fact that the match of the day presenter was attacking government policy. but there's been an equally strong feeling from those on the left who accuse the public broadcaster of having a right wing bias. they to the that its current to the fact that its current director, tim former tory director, tim is a former tory council and was appointed by the conservative government . well, conservative government. well, earlier caught up with the earlier on i caught up with the pubuc earlier on i caught up with the public to get their take on whether not they the bbc was whether or not they the bbc was biased . do you think that the biased. do you think that the bbc is biased one way or the other . no, no , bbc is biased one way or the other. no, no , no. you think other. no, no, no. you think it's completely straight down the line? yes yeah, i think so. think it can have, but don't think in general the bbc is

biased. yeah. no, i'm not sure in that space i think i there is definitely biased in there whether it's left or right wing . i think it depends on what the subject matter one or the subject matter is one way or the other. yes, i it is. which way do think is bias. what in do you think is bias. what in terms of political leaning. probably more towards the left , probably more towards the left, which has been the feels , but which has been the feels, but saying that it's always been the precursor to any sort of major media out there that are slightly more right leaning. so overall, the spectrum i comes back into the middle. but there have been the more left leaning. do you think the bbc has got a one way or the other ? oh, i'm one way or the other? oh, i'm not an arguable . oh, yeah . yes. not an arguable. oh, yeah. yes. well, there we go. particularly the liberal section of london that i the liberal section of london thati chose the liberal section of london that i chose interview about five people on have spoken so that's nation for you. with me now is, rebecca ryan, campaign director of defund bbc. we've

got two kilometres. well former head of and ethics at the bbc grace impact . so i was going to grace impact. so i was going to ask same question, but ask you the same question, but i'll it. ladies to i'll throw it. ladies first to rebecca. does bbc have a rebecca. does the bbc have a bias ? i think caught up in the bias? i think caught up in the argument about whether it has a left or right bias is actually a sort of dangerous path to go because the bbc likes to hide the fact that, you know, if both are arguing about it, then they're somewhere in the right place. factually about impartiality and. when you come to the specific and they are clearly impartial, as are the, you know, top paid bbc gary lineker clearly is not impartial that then they have a problem. but i think talking about bias one way or the other, it just ends up in a sort of cul de sac . well, that's a shame, given that scheduled a debate on that, but i'll throw it to you. do think that the bbc is bias? i'm going plough on. i don't think it's. well, is it bias ? no, i it's. well, is it bias? no, i don't think it's biased, obviously, because as think

rebecca said, everybody has a problem with bbc, whichever side you're on. i what we're you're on. i think what we're seeing, though, is i historically think it has had historically i think it has had that kind of left leaning kind bias, not because it sets out to do, but simply because of the kind have worked kind of people that have worked there in over the years. and i think i say, does it have a bias? i think it has. is actually. when you people who get to the particular of the industry at the bbc or in the bbc in particular, they tend to come from a similar kind cultural background in terms of thinking i the thinking. so i think the thinking. so i think the thinking be similar as thinking might be similar as opposed any kind of political opposed to any kind of political kind bias either way. you kind of bias either way. you know, one thing that i quite a bit the bbc . know, one thing that i quite a bit the bbc. it know, one thing that i quite a bit the bbc . it likes to bang bit is the bbc. it likes to bang on about unconscious bias lot and tell people like me that i'm unconscious bias and that actually you if you pull me actually if you if you pull me back to just erupts out of me back as to just erupts out of me and without me knowing it right behind you, does the bbc maybe have unconscious have its own unconscious bias, which if it is full of people which is if it is full of people who maybe lean to the left ? they who maybe lean to the left? they cannot necessarily say whether

or not their output is objective , impartial . actually, i think , impartial. actually, i think the thing is with the bbc that it has a bias towards the metropolitan mainly and the metropolitan mainly and the metropolitan progressive agenda that we see, particularly in sort of london groupthink. and you know, that's because where the where they all are and i myself lived in london for 15 years. i know the mindset and how people in london view people outside of the m25 . and i think outside of the m25. and i think that this is you're saying, you know, there's this of people who are outside peers who, you know, who have these horrendous opinions they don't agree with the and i think that's where the bbc goes wrong and as people have that it's not about diversity or the different diversity or the different diversity targets that they set themselves, but they want, allow or even challenge diversity of thought. and that's where they're going because they have this, you this group think that if this is running throughout the whole organisation , that is the whole organisation, that is a fascinating point. i killed. do you think that it holds mirror up to the nation, which i

suppose is what it's supposed to do or do you think it tries to tell the nation what it should be thinking. well, i suppose i should say i'm all of this conversation from my point of view full on personal view is in a full on personal capacity speaking capacity and not speaking on behalf think we've behalf of anybody. i think we've got remember that everybody got to remember that everybody works in the bbc, lives london got to remember that everybody woriworksie bbc, lives london got to remember that everybody woriworksie london.es london got to remember that everybody woriworksie london. actually, and works in london. actually, the that's why the bbc changed. that's why i said the past you have said in the past you would have argued may had that argued that it may had that metropolitan left leaning kind bias the way it bias because of the way it mainly in london. but actually if you look at it because it spent it spent so much effort spent so it spent so much effort and, money to move things outside of london, things have changed. but actually, ultimately, what you have to do but senior but the senior the senior leadership still made up of people and different people from sets and different kinds similar kinds of backgrounds, similar backgrounds . and i that's backgrounds. and i think that's the question actually how much can that kind can you challenge that kind thinking what gary thinking and what the gary lineker decision of happened had you have had with a different mindset in that kind of conversation . can i ask it's up conversation. can i ask it's up to you or not. you choose to answer this, of course. but as the of religion the former of religion and ethics bbc, know,

ethics at the bbc, you know, were you often in meetings thinking , were you often in meetings thinking, gosh, this these were you often in meetings thinking , gosh, this these they thinking, gosh, this these they don't don't really know the nafion don't don't really know the nation . well, not just of the nation. well, not just of the bbc . you know i've often been in bbc. you know i've often been in many meetings to myself, what am i doing here? and there are times when i've been i been lectured. i never been lectured by very senior the bbc, but it couldn't be any word. it could be this. i think this is not just a bbc. this goes across civil service, government name it lecturing somebody who's it and lecturing somebody who's dad to this country. my mum was refugee once before she came to pakistan accepted into this country. we did the timbuktu down of a bathroom in the no bathroom, an outside toilet. and this person was lecturing me about culture , about diversity about culture, about diversity being about class and socioeconomic background, not thinking love. you've no idea what my life my background was, but you think because of the job that i'm doing that i may the same as you. i just have a

northern accent, but actually i'm not the same as you. i think all things you're talking all those things you're talking about. through but about. i lived through but i actually you have what we now we see that people who would have hired sorry two weeks hired me i'm sorry two weeks time who have time the people who would have hired to me in the hired me and wrote to me in the early were probably people early days were probably people were go were the first generation to go to and then go to to grammar school and then go to university their university etc. in their families. didn't families. so they didn't necessarily come from a middle, upper background. upper middle class background. what now in lots of what we have now in lots of organisations, industries organisations, lots industries is people who multi you are the multi university middle class etc. and that's the problem is cracking that kind of mindset . cracking that kind of mindset. you kind of understand and maybe they can stand the life, the way of work that gary lineker has. that's why they made that decision , quite possibly. i must decision, quite possibly. i must say that was , i think, say that was, i think, fantastically articulated . fantastically well articulated. rebecca, look, are a bit past rebecca, look, we are a bit past the quickly, do the time i'm. but quickly, do you you think if it was you think do you think if it was a subscription model people would pay towards paper ? i would pay towards the paper? i think that would certainly people wanted to people out there who wanted to pay people out there who wanted to pay bbc, i think that's pay for the bbc, i think that's what would know. bbc's about

what would know. the bbc's about is people have is that the people have the choice to that. i think choice to do that. i think that's it comes to. and that's what it comes to. and as long people free to long as people are free to choose that, then yes, choose to do that, then yes, some you know, some people will. but you know, a good 60% of the country want to of the tv licence to get rid of the tv licence fee. so it would be chunk of people that do, but a huge chunk that because both that don't. because if both of you rebecca you enjoyed that. rebecca ryan, campaign from the bbc you enjoyed that. rebecca ryan, caracademy from the bbc you enjoyed that. rebecca ryan, caracademy at from the bbc you enjoyed that. rebecca ryan, caracademy at that'om the bbc you enjoyed that. rebecca ryan, caracademy at that former bbc you enjoyed that. rebecca ryan, caracademy at that former of3c an academy at that former of religion at the beeb religion and ethics at the beeb . great right time to . great stuff, right time to wrap on now with this one wrap on up now with this one because opened yesterday because voting opened yesterday and, the contest to select the candidate to succeed nicola sturgeon mp . but it's sturgeon as the mp. but it's been reported that one of the candidates would consider ditching the monarchy if scotland gained independence. in an interview with the national the scottish health humza yousaf told newspaper he believes told the newspaper he believes the question of whether scotland moves to an moves from the monarchy to an elected of state could be elected head of state could be considered if the considered basically if the monarchy within the first five years replace with, years and then replace with, i think as we all know, probably nicola sturgeon. with me now is bnan nicola sturgeon. with me now is brian menzies, former member of nicola sturgeon. with me now is briéscottishas, former member of nicola sturgeon. with me now is briéscottish parliament1ember of nicola sturgeon. with me now is briéscottish parliament who er of the scottish parliament who handled pr , the palace of

handled the pr, the palace of hollyrood from 1991 to 1998 and has lived to tell the tale clearly. fantastic. so, brian, great stuff . right. first and great stuff. right. first and foremost, do you think it is offensive that humza yousaf would even talk about scotland ditching monarchy ? well, ditching the monarchy? well, i don't think it's offensive. i think it's a childishly glib what used off is doing is appealing to his base. you've got to remember , it's the snp got to remember, it's the snp members that will vote for leader that becomes first minister and i probably expect a majority of snp members are republican . it's to say they republican. it's to say they know who they want as a king or queen to be replaced a head of state. and fact, some of them have been saying that they'd like andy murray. that's the level of the debate. personally i'd prefer kenny dalglish. after all, he's already called king . all, he's already called king. kenny. so that really got me up on the idea of the very vague

thatis on the idea of the very vague that is being driven in a show for driven car down to be rishi sunak so we can welcome andy murray and presumably his mum not far behind . well. brian what not far behind. well. brian what will be the chances of nicola sturgeon fulfilling her sturgeon finally fulfilling her in her own mind potential and becoming queen of scots . well becoming queen of scots. well i think nicola sturgeon is far more likely to be the defence her legacy which since she announced her resignation as first minister and off this electoral contest has been pulled apart and demonised not not just by a normal opponents, but by the three candidates who've all picked up various parts of her legacy that they disagree . so the idea , nicola disagree. so the idea, nicola sturgeon might be made queen of scots by popular vote i think is high highly unlikely and almost a more divisive head of state, you know. and dissipate. why win

just scotland continually to rip itself apart. we've got the old reform bill independence was being shouted across the border for ever. really, i suppose. and we've got this bizarre crowbar into the news agenda about pitting the monarchy . i mean, pitting the monarchy. i mean, can they not just chill out a bit. well, one of the things thatis bit. well, one of the things that is not often talked about is the fact that elections for hollyrood are based upon proportional representation and therefore it actually makes sense in campaign terms to appeal to a particular that will stay with you so that you can become either the largest minority party because very rarely does any one party become big enough to have an overall majority or you become a king maker. so to such as the greens by, just having a small number of politician who can then decide who's charge. so sort helping the system means that instead of trying unite the

country, the politicians play to their and they play . to the their and they play. to the populist policies that they think even if they're divisive , think even if they're divisive, will work for them and not for the whole country. brian you very, very much. brian one step. a former member of the scottish just reacting to the news that humza yousaf is open to the idea of ditching monarchy . of ditching the monarchy. and are to like head are we going to like this head of state which of course will definitely be nicola definitely not be nicola sturgeon very much for another thank you very much for another roaring show. great to have you all in patrick all on board up in patrick christys. is james co .

for making false rape

allegations. the 22 year old reckons that she'd been trafficked by an asian grooming gang , but she trafficked by an asian grooming gang, but she also trafficked by an asian grooming gang , but she also alleged rapes gang, but she also alleged rapes by a number of white men to her, lies were spread. all around the world on social media bots. the men also have their names published in the press. once they were arrested and charged , they were arrested and charged, should that end? should those accused of rape be entitled to anonymity until they are convicted ? and do you know what convicted? and do you know what sharon's sharon thing is? i almost said be careful how you say that. but anyway, it's when you take and post pictures of your children on social media and get this, i got
