on this trip, but not least of all, because there is an expectation here that it will be unhelpful, i think, for the us president to weigh in too heavily into politics. clearly there's frustration in there's a lot of frustration in washington, london and in washington, in london and in dubun washington, in london and in dublin the that dublin too, that the fact that on the anniversary of the on the 25th anniversary of the good agreement, that good friday agreement, that storm the northern irish storm of the northern irish assembly, not assembly, the executive is not sitting here, that there is no local government in northern ireland. was a hope that ireland. there was a hope that president biden, particularly after the windsor framework, may well to belfast talk well come to belfast and talk and speak and address mlas in stormont. that is not now happening. but at the same time i think a recognition from the white house that they cannot try and twist the dup arm in all of this , that that might well this, that that might well backfire. president biden has said making that seven hour journey across the atlantic ocean well—trodden path for us ocean a well—trodden path for us presidents. bill clinton was here three times. george w bush twice. president obama has been to ireland as well. interestingly, of course , many interestingly, of course, many of those politicians claim they've got irish roots, not

least of all president biden. i think it's fair to say he's probably the most irish of us presidents that we've seen really since jfk back in the 1960s. he's often talked about his irish roots. he's talked about his keenness to come to ireland as president. he visited many times as vice president, though it must be said, the weather here in belfast, just like the rest of the island, weather here in belfast, just like “terribly of the island, weather here in belfast, just like “terribly niceie island, weather here in belfast, just like “terribly nice today. id, weather here in belfast, just like “terribly nice today. we isn't terribly nice today. we have got strong winds and quite a lot of rain and it could be quite a bumpy landing. i think, for air force one. and when it lands on the tarmac at around 9 pm. time here in the uk pm. local time here in the uk and president biden will be greeted by rishi sunak by the prime air force one prime minister off air force one tonight. into the tonight. he'll travel into the centre of belfast to a hotel. i'm currently stood outside and it's tomorrow so that he'll make that key address at the university ulster he university of ulster after he holds talks prime holds talks with the prime minister here in belfast and also with some of the political leaders. as i say, it is leaders. so as i say, it is a it's a path air force one to land at many times in ireland before there is a big irish

american community. politicians like to play to their irish roots. they know that it goes down with those tens of millions of americans who trace their heritage to ireland. joe biden no different. if anything, he , no different. if anything, he, as i say, plays on those irish roots more than anyone has done for decades. and i think there is a genuine excitement for president biden when he travels across the atlantic to meet some of his relatives, his long relatives . i of his relatives, his long relatives. i mean, his of his relatives, his long relatives . i mean, his ancestors relatives. i mean, his ancestors moved to the united states quite a long time ago. but he's someone who does and has done plays an awful lot of emphasis on his irish heritage. farage excitement. yes darren, but also security pretty tight in northern ireland. and of course, with northern ireland. and of course, niin inad— northern ireland. and of course, with that threat— northern ireland. and of course, with that threat having- \ : and of course, with that threat having been raised— with that threat having been raised already,— with that threat having been raised already, the terror inreai— raised already, the terror threat there _ raised already, the terror threat there .— raised already, the terror threat there . yeah i think threat there. yeah i think inere-s— threat there. yeah i think there's several- threat there. yeah i think there's several concerns. inere-s— there's several concerns. there's always— there's several concerns. there's always security is always tight here in northern ireland. i'm stood outside the hotel. joe biden's going to stay in tonight. the roads are blocked. officers blocked. police officers have stood are armoured cars

stood by there are armoured cars around the hotel as well . well, around the hotel as well. well, not least of all, as you say , not least of all, as you say, that the terrorism threat has been raised here in northern ireland to mean that an attack now is highly likely insane. i don't think there's any expectation the attack would be on joe biden himself. it expectation the attack would be on joe biden himself . it would on joe biden himself. it would be simply here to kind of raise the profile of extreme chemists who want to take northern ireland down a different path. we saw a sign of that yesterday in derry slash londonderry when there was minor scuffles with police couple petrol bombs police, a couple of petrol bombs chucked at police land rovers dufing chucked at police land rovers during easter day parades . but, during easter day parades. but, you know, when the us president goes anywhere, there's a hell of a lot of security. secret service agents have been in northern ireland and indeed in the in the south, in the repubuc the in the south, in the republic of ireland for weeks now preparation this now in preparation of this visit because after he leaves here tomorrow and he's only in northern ireland for around 24 hours, he's then going to travel down to dublin , where air force down to dublin, where air force one. he'll get on the plane just to go to dublin. it's not very far away with marine one. those

of what he's going to do. but ulster have now ulster university have now confirmed president biden confirmed that president biden will give a key address at their new belfast campus. but that's going be wednesday before going to be on wednesday before he travels to dublin for the next of his tour for huge next stage of his tour for huge security detail there will be throughout were skirmish throughout the were skirmish ashes last night, if you can call that. i believe the call it that. i believe the plane is now moving off the tarmac there. so we will see it hit the runway in just couple hit the runway in just a couple of but the police of minutes. but the police service northern ireland have service in northern ireland have warned motorists and tourists and area and anyone who's in the area that going big that there's going to be big delays because they need to facilitate preparation to facilitate the preparation to keep the keep joe biden and also the police themselves and our police forces themselves and our politicians safe . he will move politicians safe. he will move from belfast to dublin and he will spend at least a day in dublin. and there we go, joe biden, who makes a lot of his irish roots. i was doing a little bit of research there, actually. well tamzin was informing you of what was going on.and informing you of what was going on. and joe biden apparently traces his irish roots to traces his irish roots back to his great great his great, great great grandfather who is of the finnegan clan . and then also, as

finnegan clan. and then also, as well on another side to a family called the bluets, who did come to america , according to this to america, according to this report, anyway, in 1851. so biden's irish roots do go rather a long way back, it must be said. but he is , as you said to said. but he is, as you said to the press pack there , hoping to the press pack there, hoping to go to show, joe, that the good friday agreement and that the windsor framework as well needs to be adhered to. i think some might say slightly overplaying his when it came to his his hand when it came to his ability to help keep the peace in northern ireland. but there we that plane is going we go. and that plane is going to taking any minute. to be taking off any minute. make that you do stay make sure that you do stay locked into gb news here, though, this evening well, though, this evening as well, because course, because we will, of course, be bringing to date as bringing you bang up to date as and when that plane does touch down and biden, his down and joe biden, his movements the course down and joe biden, his mihisnents the course down and joe biden, his mihis visit; the course down and joe biden, his mihis visit there the course down and joe biden, his mihis visit there to the course down and joe biden, his mihis visit there to northern ourse of his visit there to northern ireland. coincides with the ireland. it coincides with the 25th the good 25th anniversary of the good friday agreement. yesterday they, in live this they, in fact, live on this show. reported it about this show. we reported it about this time actually . police time yesterday, actually. police were bombed in were petrol bombed in londonderry . it was a brief londonderry. it was a brief incident. are wonderful. northern ireland reporter dougie beattie who has been there, seen

it all, been involved with north irish politics and issues over many, many years , was keen to many, many years, was keen to say that, look, this is whilst it sounds sensationalist, it is something that unfortunately happens rather a lot in the police to it. so it police are used to it. so it wasn't anything too dramatic despite that quite shocking imagery petrol bombs going imagery of petrol bombs going off and all of that stuff. but joe biden will be going there and hopefully it will be a much quieter backdrop for him. no doubt there will some doubt there will be some protests and demonstrations, etcetera. biden etcetera. but yes, joe biden will taking off to fly into will be taking off to fly into belfast very , very shortly. that belfast very, very shortly. that flight expected to take around seven hours. and like i've said tonight or tomorrow, i should say tomorrow is going to be speaking at belfast, ulster university, and ahead of his trip, actually, joe biden tweeted or someone tweeted for him, 25 years ago, northern ireland's leaders chose peace. the belfast good friday agreement ended decades of violence and brought stability . violence and brought stability. i look forward to marking the anniversary in belfast,

underscoring the us commitment to preserving peace and encourage growing prosperity. some of biden's critics here at home have said that his allegiance or perceived allegiance or perceived allegiance to not just the repubuc allegiance to not just the republic of ireland, but also the european union, have maybe been getting in the way somewhat of transatlantic relations. rishi sunak will be meeting him and no doubt be hoping to and will no doubt be hoping to assure him with the new assure him that with the new windsor framework and with closer well with closer relations as well with the european union, we at the signing of the windsor framework saw sunak sunak, an eu saw rishi sunak sunak, an eu bigwig , ursula von leyen bigwig, ursula von der leyen there very lovely dodi there doing a very lovely dodi press doubt press conference, and no doubt we'll be hoping to give reassurance to american president joe biden that there is going to be peace there, that we are very close allies and friends both with our european neighbours well our neighbours and also as well our traditional allies, the americans . as that plane now americans. as that plane now pulls up the runway as joe biden will be taking off to visit northern ireland very, very shortly , he will arrive, like shortly, he will arrive, like i've said, the day after some

petrol bombs were thrown at a police vehicle in londonderry. he did also speak about violence, says. as for violence, he says. as for security concerns , we know we security concerns, we know we don't ever talk about security requirements of protecting the president, but the president is more than comfortable making this trip and he's very excited about it. that is the white house spokesman, john kirby , who house spokesman, john kirby, who released statement . and joe released that statement. and joe biden will be with a joint session of the irish parliament. he'll be going and sitting in on that. that's a joint session of the irish parliament. and then after that, and this is going to be tomorrow or thursday morning, i thursday is going be tomorrow or thursday morning, i have thursday is going be tomorrow or thursday morning, i have a thursday is going be tomorrow or thursday morning, i have a banquetday is going be tomorrow or thursday morning, i have a banquet ati is going be tomorrow or thursday morning, i have a banquet at dublinig to have a banquet at dublin castle . and course, like i've castle. and of course, like i've said, the attendance at the events marked the anniversary of the good friday agreement , the good friday agreement, reflecting america's reflecting on america's influence, trying to help underpin the peace cindy yu nafion underpin the peace cindy yu nation in northern ireland, not playing there, taking off shortly anyway, from joint base andrews in maryland and there we

go. so, yes, we'll be bringing that to you throughout the course of not just this evening when joe biden touches down, but also as well in the days to come as joe biden makes that historic trip. but closer to home now to an alarming story. it is reported that 19 suspected terrorists are in this country. and by that, i mean england, the united kingdom, after travelling across the channel in small boats. this ties into a fear that plenty of people have been banging on about since the very first boat came across the channel. what about security concerns ? do we know all these concerns? do we know all these people are what if? what if some people are what if? what if some people on board these boats are indeed actual terrorists? and the daily mail says that they're all taxpayer funded hotels . all in taxpayer funded hotels. now, suspected now, these 19 suspected terrorists and have applied for asylum, meaning they can't be deported. and the report adds that five of the men have links to islamic state. i've got a home office statement. we asked them for a statement earlier on and the home office spokesperson said this. let me know what you

make of this. our highest priority is protecting the safety security this safety and security of this country, is why the has country, which is why the uk has world police, security and world class police, security and intelligence and intelligence agencies and a robust counter—terrorism framework . so hang on a minute. framework. so hang on a minute. we're yet to see a denial that these people are here or a confirmation if an individual of national interest national security interest entered the uk as an illegal migrant , we entered the uk as an illegal migrant, we would take the firmest possible steps which could include removal all action by law enforcement or other appropriate measures . as the appropriate measures. as the prime minister has said, this government is focussed on stopping small boats and the illegal migration bill will enable us to take back control of our borders and ensure we have asylum system that is have an asylum system that is fair, safe and legal. now there isn't, i've said, isn't, like i've said, a confirmation or a denial there that there are currently 19 suspected come suspected terrorists who've come across into this country on small boats and are currently living at the taxpayers expense in hotels . dr. alan mendoza in hotels. dr. alan mendoza joins me now, the executive joins me now, is the executive director of the henry jackson society. do you society. dr. alan, what do you make the news that there make of the news that there could well be 19 terrorists who

the most important thing to bear in mind. so why why aren't they locked up ? not only are we locked up? not only are we allowing them in and risk albie to roam about freely , totally to roam about freely, totally unnecessarily , but we're doing unnecessarily, but we're doing it in the knowledge that they pose a serious aukus threat to the security and the safety of people in this country that i just i'm afraid i do not understand why we can't keep them under lock and key. what? someone we can't get rid of them. i'm sorry, but we're being raid— them. i'm sorry, but we're being raid rnar— them. i'm sorry, but we're being raid rnar rney— them. i'm sorry, but we're being told that they are— i'm sorry, but we're being told that they are claiming asyian— told that they are claiming asyian. se— told that they are claiming asylum. so they've got to go rnreagn— asylum. so they've got to go through some— asylum. so they've got to go through some form of due process. and— through some form of due process. and that means that for new-ieasd— process. and that means that for now-least, they— process. and that means that for now least, they can't be now at least, they can't be deperred.— now at least, they can't be deported. well,— now at least, they can't be deported. well, good grief, if rney— deported. well, good grief, if rney-rerrer— deported. well, good grief, if they terror, watch this deported. well, good grief, if throther terror, watch this deported. well, good grief, if throther countries. watch this deported. well, good grief, if throther countries. and h this deported. well, good grief, if throther countries. and ifthis deported. well, good grief, if throther countries. and if they in other countries. and if they are now under— in other countries. and if they are now under active investigation and monitoring by our investigation and monitoring by ear—rea- investigation and monitoring by ear—yea den-ri our security services. you don't rnink—pairiic- think the british public have a rignr— think the british public have a rignr-wander— think the british public have a right wonder they're right to wonder who they're riipping— right to wonder who they're riipping eare— right to wonder who they're flipping out? we can deport if we-deperr— flipping out? we can deport if we-deport-lot?- flipping out? we can deport if we deport lot? well we can't deport this lot? well we can't deport this lot? well ecan—r-

right? that there are correlations to labour voting and the people who are less likely to have photo id, but it's important to say that people can apply for free for a voter id as well. so if they haven't got one, they should be. they should be getting that now. and you're completely right. of course, that we course, the point is that we don't have statistics after the fact all these people fact saying all of these people successfully defrauded the electoral . and i think electoral system. and i think from perspective, would from my perspective, it would have for the have been nice for the government focus on other government to focus on other issues the the system issues with the with the system that we have. so people who aren't on the roll, for instance, is a massive kind of gap our political gap in in our kind of political or electoral but i'd or electoral system. but i'd like see that if this is like to see that if this is a system we're going to go system that we're going to go with, like they have in northern ireland, properly. ireland, that we do it properly. ireland, that we do it properly. i can you're itching to get i can see you're itching to get tnvatvet— i can see you're itching to get tnvatvet. aa— i can see you're itching to get involved. 60 on. _ i can see you're itching to get involved. 60 on. / involved. 60 on. yeah. ijust want to give you one quick example that works against what i've saying, which that i've been saying, which is that when grandmother my great when my grandmother and my great grandmother uk as grandmother arrived in the uk as refugees effectively from the, from both had from vienna, they they both had the hedi stadlen, the same name. hedi stadlen, hedvig stadlen, and great hedvig stadlen, and my great grandmother went to vote good

grandmother went to vote in good faith and voted. but it turned out that she hadn't actually been naturalised . so when my been naturalised. so when my grandmother went to vote , she grandmother went to vote, she also was called hedi stadlen and they i'm sorry, you've they said, i'm sorry, you've already voted. she no, already voted. and she said, no, i haven't voted . and it was i haven't voted. and it was because there two haiti because there were two haiti standards of one of standards and only of one of them entitled to vote and them was entitled to vote and them was entitled to vote and the wrong hedi stadlen had voted and voted for the and she'd voted for the liberals, whereas grandmother liberals, whereas my grandmother had for labour. had wanted to vote for labour. so very upset. i was so she was very upset. i was going say it so she was very upset. i was goinglsay it wasn't- i i was going say it wasn't been going to say it wasn't a been a tratten — going to say it wasn't a been a tratten tt— going to say it wasn't a been a problem if they— going to say it wasn't a been a problem if they both wanted to vate — problem if they both wanted to vate tar— problem if they both wanted to vate tar the — problem if they both wanted to vote for the same— problem if they both wanted to vote for the same party, but i tnagtne— vote for the same party, but i tnagtne that— vote for the same party, but i imagine that was— vote for the same party, but i imagine that was a that was a that— imagine that was a that was a row that erupted.— imagine that was a that was a row that erupted. look, david the— row that erupted. look, david the tartes— row that erupted. look, david the tories, final— row that erupted. look, david the tories, final you on the tories, final one to you on thts— the tories, final one to you on thts-haw— the tories, final one to you on this- now some- the tories, final one to you on this now some people this one. now some people might be this one. now some people might te savtng— this one. now some people might te savtng-tt— this one. now some people might te savtng-tt vau— this one. now some people might be saying, if you cannot be saying, look, if you cannot be saying, look, if you cannot te-ta— be saying, look, if you cannot te-ta get— be saying, look, if you cannot be _to getlfree - be saying, look, if you cannoti be _to getlfree voter be bothered to get a free voter id, be bothered to get a free voter .g, atat— be bothered to get a free voter .g, okay-then— be bothered to get a free voter id, okay, then you're id, okay, and then you're tratattv— id, okay, and then you're tratattv nat— id, okay, and then you're probably not going want probably not going to want to we— probably not going to want to vate anyway.— probably not going to want to vote anyway. what's the vote anyway. so. so what's the tanta— vote anyway. so. so what's the tatnteltust— vote anyway. so. so what's the point?ijust feel— vote anyway. so. so what's the point? just feel like why point? i just feel like why shautt— point? i just feel like why should our— point? i just feel like why should our political system run the rtst— should our political system run the rtst at— should our political system run the risk of being— should our political system run the risk of being rigged the the risk of being rigged for the tenettt— the risk of being rigged for the benefit potentially and benefit of potentially lazy and or benefit of potentially lazy and ar-teattee— benefit of potentially lazy and ar-teattee tr.- benefit of potentially lazy and or people? dr. david can or corrupt people? dr. david can you— or corrupt people? dr. david can vau see— or corrupt people? dr. david can vau tt— or corrupt people? dr. david can vau tt tran— or corrupt people? dr. david can you see it from that angle ? you see it from that angle? i'm not tt— you see it from that angle? i'm not t-t sav— you see it from that angle? i'm not sure. i'd say corrupt- you see it from that angle? i'm not sure. i'd say corrupt ,- you see it from that angle? i'm not sure. i'd say corrupt, but i do think there's something to be

this is a problem that the british government is alert to but is failing to address. no, indeed . and for a long time, indeed. and for a long time, teatte— indeed. and for a long time, teatte wee— indeed. and for a long time, people were saying,- 3: and for a long time, people were saying, well, look, thew-re— people were saying, well, look, thew-re att— people were saying, well, look, they're all fleeing— people were saying, well, look, they're all fleeing war and they are they're all fleeing war and they att— they're all fleeing war and they are all genuine— they're all fleeing war and they are all genuine refugees. and then— are all genuine refugees. and then teatte— are all genuine refugees. and then people were quite politely tatnttng— then people were quite politely tatnttng aut— then people were quite politely pointing out them that a lot pointing out to them that a lot of pointing out to them that a lot at teatte— pointing out to them that a lot at teatte wee— pointing out to them that a lot of people were fleeing of people were just fleeing attanta— of people were just fleeing attanta. ar— of people were just fleeing albania, or indeed, the case albania, or indeed, in the case of albania, or indeed, in the case at-then.— albania, or indeed, in the case of-them, france,- albania, or indeed, in the case of-them, france, in- albania, or indeed, in the case of them, france, in order of all of them, france, in order to of all of them, france, in order ta ne— of all of them, france, in order to come over here. _ of all of them, france, in order to come over here. and then teatte— people say, well, all right, what— people say, well, all right, what-those - people say, well, all right, what those genuinely what about those genuinely tteetng— what about those genuinely. fleeing—countries, fleeing the war torn countries, then— fleeing the war torn countries, then-tarn— fleeing the war torn countries, then torn countries? then the war torn countries? wett — then the war torn countries? wett havtng— then the war torn countries? well, having a— then the war torn countries? well, having a look at the auntnes— well, having a look at the countries that— well, having a look at the countries that these people are suttasettv— countries that these people are suttasettv nan— countries that these people are supposedly from, it's afghanistan. it's iraq, it's tran—tt-sl iran, it's libya, and it's sanatta.— iran, it's libya, and it's somalia-the- iran, it's libya, and it's- somalia.-the uncomfortable somalia. and the uncomfortable truth—although- somalia. and the uncomfortable truth although i'm truth about this, although i'm not truth about this, although i'm hat—tatttngi truth about this, although i'm. not—talking about not uncomfortable talking about it,-uncomfortable- not uncomfortable talking about it, uncomfortable truth it, the uncomfortable truth for anat— it, the uncomfortable truth for aiat-tteettng- it, the uncomfortable truth for a of bleeding heart a lot of the bleeding heart trtgate— a lot of the bleeding heart brigade-that— a lot of the bleeding heart brigade that some of the brigade is that some of the teatte— brigade is that some of the teatte eantng— brigade is that some of the people coming from those auntnes— people coming from those. countries—actually countries might have actually been— been responsible for the rrrrrm— been responsible for the terrorism there, not just terrorism over there, not just fleeing— terrorism over there, not just fleeingl- — terrorism over there, not just fleeingl. indeed.- terrorism over there, not just fleeing . 3: r: terrorism over there, not just- fleeingl. indeed. and you know fleeing it. indeed. and you know , there is no question of that. patrick, i know of cases where and this is a contentious issue . you know, there is a large school of thought, including within the british military,

that interpreters working for the british military in afghanistan should be given a sort of an open door to the uk. i don't agree with that. and i'll tell you why. when i was in afghanistan as well and i know of at least one case proven case where a british interpreter or an interpreter working for the british military was actually passing intelligence to the taliban. and that resulted in attacks on nato bases. now, you know, there are all sorts of reasons why that can be happening. there's coercion and so on, on the family back in afghanistan, but that can also pull levers when they're in the uk. to lot more uk. we need to be a lot more careful. and what i don't understand about this, patrick, is are people out is why there are people out there who you call them the bleeding hearts . i think they're bleeding hearts. i think they're just naive or stupid and who cannot mediate between cannot differenc mediate between an economic migrant, a refugee , an economic migrant, a refugee, an economic migrant, a refugee, a criminal, and somebody who is a criminal, and somebody who is a member of a fundamentally or terrorist group. and why they cannot understand or they refuse

to understand that those categories of people coming across the channel need to be identified and dealt with differently. this is, you know, it's as people have been saying, on on social media today. i put out something about this earlier this morning, the reactions i got were was, you know , but so got were was, you know, but so what would you do with refugees then these are not refugees. that's not who you're talking abour. — that's not who you're talking about. exactly.— that's not who you're talking about. exactly. and this is this is nrs— about. exactly. and this is this is rrrrs rs— about. exactly. and this is this is this is the— about. exactly. and this is this is this is the vital— about. exactly. and this is this is this is the vital thing. about. exactly. and this is this is this is the vital thing . now, is this is the vital thing. now, for far— is this is the vital thing. now, for far roo— is this is the vital thing. now, for far too long,— is this is the vital thing. now, for far too long, people have been— for far too long, people have been completely— for far too long, people have been completely burying their hearts— been completely burying their hearts rn— been completely burying their treats in rte— been completely burying their heads in the sand as you rightly sart— heads in the sand as you rightly said, wiri— heads in the sand as you rightly said, with the— heads in the sand as you rightly said, with the economic migrant issue— said, with the economic migrant sr— said, with the economic migrant or tr— said, with the economic migrant issue of it-and_ said, with the economic migrant issue of it and then they issue of it all. and then they tried— issue of it all. and then they triedlsav_ issue of it all. and then they tried say everyone was tried to say that everyone was fleeing— fleeing war. well, unfortunately, appears unfortunately, now it appears tiar— unfortunately, now it appears that—peoplel that we've got some people coming—wad that we've got some people- coming_war torn coming from genuinely war torn surrrrssr— coming from genuinely war torn countries-r— coming from genuinely war torn countries-i said- countries who, as i said earner,— countries who, as i said earlier, might- countries who, as i said earlier, might been earlier, might have been responsible— earlier, might have been responsible war earlier, might have been responsible _war not responsible for that war and not actuati— responsible for that war and not actually fleeing— responsible for that war and not actually fleeing it— responsible for that war and not actually fleeing it to begin with, — actually fleeing it to begin with, tur— actually fleeing it to begin with, but because they have now srppssstry— with, but because they have now supposedly applied for asylum, it supposedly applied for asylum, rr merm— supposedly applied for asylum, it means that— supposedly applied for asylum, it means that they have to go through— it means that they have to go through ere— it means that they have to go through due process and assortme— through due process and according to— through due process and according to the reports, we eer-r— according to the reports, we sent-mem- according to the reports, we. can't-them.-just can't deport them. is this just in e— can't deport them. is this just in a nutshell— can't deport them. is this just in a nutshell ,— can't deport them. is this just in a nutshell, all— can't deport them. is this just in a nutshell, all the gaming of

take account the basic rate take into account the basic rate of pay overtime for things of pay and overtime for things like shifts , etcetera. but like night shifts, etcetera. but health care systems in other countries are offering higher wages and they're not overstretching their doctors because there's a recruitment crisis. hence the junior doctors today are saying that's why a lot of us are leaving to go to places like australia and new zealand because we can get paid more and effectively. we're treated better and that's why we need to paid we think is need to be paid what we think is a deal. in terms of the two a fair deal. in terms of the two sides, still quite far sides, they're still quite far apart. is saying apart. the government is saying you to come to the table you need to come to the table and then we can talk about a figure. bma saying, no, figure. the bma is saying, no, no, you need to name a figure, a realistic pay offer, and then we'll come to the table and talk about deal. paul thank you about a deal. paul thank you very, very much. paul hawkins mere,— very, very much. paul hawkins there our— very, very much. paul hawkins there, our national— rrzryr rrzryr rt paul hawkins there, our national reporter wrs-s— there, our national reporteri who's-over-for there, our national reporter. who's-over-for us who's been all over this for us retry.— who's been all over this for us today-iwas— who's been all over this for us today..was outside- who's been all over this for us today. was outside downing today. he was outside downing street— today. he was outside downing street-mew.— today. he was outside downing street-now.-this. street there now. okay this is a teemi— street there now. okay this is a deeply controversial issue as a lot deeply controversial issue as a rer-peepie— deeply controversial issue as a rer-peepie re— deeply controversial issue as a lot people are letting me lot of people are letting me mew—ee- lot of people are letting mei know—gb views lot of people are letting me. know—gb views or know in the inbox, gb views or gb know in the inbox, gb views or es _w— know in the inbox, gb views or gb -.uk whether- know in the inbox, gb views or gb .uk whether not you gb news, .uk whether or not you rmmk— gb news, .uk whether or not you mink-rumor— gb news, .uk whether or not you think-junior doctors- think that junior doctors are remarri— think that junior doctors are actually-done- think that junior doctors are actually done by in actually that hard done by in ms—
