resign . allegations against him resign. allegations against him were upheld, and therefore he had to go. i think, a relief for rishi sunak that he chose to resign rather than being sacked . they were huge allies . dominic . they were huge allies. dominic raab was helped massively rishi sunak its leadership campaign , sunak its leadership campaign, even though it was clear that liz truss was going to get the leadership. dominic raab carried on regardless, even going as far as that if the as saying that if the conservatives put liz truss with her economic policies in, it would be like a suicide note and obviously we know what happens after the mini—budget. so he had after the mini—budget. so he had a huge debt of gratitude to dominic raab. obviously now questions asked, why did he put him in in the first place? but important to say sure, dominic raab was known as a very tough taskmaster , but of course the taskmaster, but of course the report found he didn't shout at anybody. he didn't swear at anybody. he didn't swear at anybody. you know , the report is anybody. you know, the report is very nuanced . there's many, many very nuanced. there's many, many shades of grey . and what is
12:12 pm

settled and we have left the eu. and i think we've got to just confront that reality and not talk over people. as we've heard this morning when they disagree with us, which is there was some work perceived as poor quality and dominic raab didn't have the personal skill set to provide feedback in the right way. so to bnng feedback in the right way. so to bring raquib in there— feedback in the right way. so to bring raquib in there now,- .. . g so to bring raquib in there now, are we ireeeiee— bring raquib in there now, are we heading towards a position, werew— we heading towards a position, though,-inability. we heading towards a position, though, inability to though, where the inability to eriiieise — though, where the inability to criticise poor— though, where the inability to criticise poor performance will ieee — criticise poor performance will ieee re — criticise poor performance will lead to government? just just ireeewiee— lead to government? just just becoming stodge? well i think rirer-s— becoming stodge? well i think was we— becoming stodge? well i think that's the risk— becoming stodge? well i think that's the risk as— becoming stodge? well i think that's the risk as i said, if you— that's the risk as i said, if yer sei— that's the risk as i said, if yer sei rrre— that's the risk as i said, if you set the threshold for irwiiyiep— you set the threshold for irwiiyiep ei— you set the threshold for bullying at such a low level reei— bullying at such a low level we reei— bullying at such a low level that that the _ bullying at such a low level that that the potential to pereiyse — that that the potential to paralyse government activity . paralyse government activity. by paralyse government activity. iy we— paralyse government activity. ey we wey. — paralyse government activity. ey we wey. i— paralyse government activity. by the way, i don't— paralyse government activity. by the way, i don't think- paralyse government activity. by the way, i don't think i've talked that much and luckily for me, i've got a thick skin or i might accuse you of bullying, but the point that but i'd make the point that ultimately the government and that former deputy that includes the former deputy prime minister, he believes prime minister, if he believes that he described it as that i think he described it as a small minority if a very small minority motty if he believes they are he believes that they are possibly with forms of possibly not happy with forms of government reform and they're being , then being obstructionist, then he's

1:09 pm
secretary after the fall of afghan khan in 2021 to the taliban , when he was, of course, taliban, when he was, of course, on holiday in crete. and so the sea was closed, he pushed back very strongly against that and retained the title of deputy prime minister and was moved to justice secretary. so it's very clear that although he did resign, he clearly feels that he shouldn't have had to. and although the prime minister didn't ask him directly to resign , and it was also made resign, and it was also made clear to him that given it was found that he had breached the ministerial code of conduct, that was what was expected. but he's very angry because he feels no one ever said to him until this point out that his behaviour could be construed as bullying. also, the timeline of this, these complaints were put in over a very short period of time. some of them dated back years, four years. and that he's saying, you know, in a normal environment, you'd have to put that complaint in within three months would be null and
1:10 pm
months or it would be null and void. so he obviously feels he's been wronged and he's saying that there are civil servants who basically albie wanted him out because they didn't like some of the things that he was trying to do, whether it be with brexit or with the justice system. and quite a number of fairly prominent tory mps would agree . so jacob agree with him. so jacob rees-m099— agree with him. so jacob rees—mogg-told- ggiini; “ so jacob rees—mogg told gb agree with him. so jacob- rees—mogg-told gb news, you rees—mogg also told gb news, you can rees—mogg also told gb news, you reei— rees—mogg also told gb news, you iirei ee— rees—mogg also told gb news, you can see that on our— rees—mogg also told gb news, you can see that on our youtube eireeeei— can see that on our youtube eireeeei es— can see that on our youtube channel as well,— can see that on our youtube channel as well, that it was wreee— channel as well, that it was wreee ier— channel as well, that it was wrong for rob— channel as well, that it was wrong for rob to— channel as well, that it was wrong for rob to resign and irere-s— wrong for rob to resign and iirere-s-eew— wrong for rob to resign and there's now persistent there's this now persistent iireery—ee- there's this now persistent- rireery—ee-iirei theory that won't go away that theory that won't go away that the - bureaucrats - theory that won't go away that the bureaucrats in the the unelected bureaucrats in the ewe— the unelected bureaucrats in the eivii service— the unelected bureaucrats in the civil service seem— the unelected bureaucrats in the civil service seem to have the pewer— civil service seem to have the pewerrewevel— civil service seem to have the power remove ministers they power to remove ministers they eee-r— power to remove ministers they eee-i pp...— power to remove ministers they don't like. priti_ power to remove ministers they don't like. priti patel went, of wire— don't like. priti patel went, of course, with partygate boris and iiee— course, with partygate boris and ieeir .— course, with partygate boris and ieeir . ir— course, with partygate boris and now rob . it does— course, with partygate boris and now rob . it does make you think now rob. it does make you think reei— now rob. it does make you think we reis— now rob. it does make you think we we is— now rob. it does make you think that this is starting— now rob. it does make you think that this is starting to feel iiie— that this is starting to feel iiie e— that this is starting to feel like a political— that this is starting to feel like a political a politically weiiveiee— like a political a politically motivated attack , getting rid of motivated attack, getting rid of peepie— motivated attack, getting rid of peepie wire— motivated attack, getting rid of people who don't— motivated attack, getting rid of people who don't agree with iiriees— people who don't agree with eeiees iiie— people who don't agree with things like brexit or immigration. �*jgerit;; ; immigration. well, it's certainly caused a huge debate on this, hasn't it, on the impartiality of the civil servants or certainly within some within it? but servants or certainly within some within it ? but today, lord
1:11 pm
some within it? but today, lord simon mcdonald, who was the permanent secretary in the foreign office while dominic raab was there, said that the problem is not the civil servants , that that's nonsense, servants, that that's nonsense, that the problem was with the minister's behaviour , saying minister's behaviour, saying that he'd spoken to him on several occasions, saying that he wasn't helping himself to get the most out of his team, but that he hadn't listened. so really divided opinions on this, but really , rishi sunak had no but really, rishi sunak had no choice but to make sure that dominic raab went because because he wants to put distance between himself and boris johnson when he came into power , he talked about integrity , , he talked about integrity, accountability and, you know, given the trouble that the conservative party and boris johnson got themselves into when they tried to defend owen paterson , who was found to have paterson, who was found to have broken the standards code then with partygate and then with chris pincher, you can see why. rishi sunak, although it will have pained him massively to get

1:22 pm
the report in 99 and the independent oversight of the recommendations primarily by the stephen lawrence steering group, chaired by jack straw and the parents of stephen lawrence and neville and doreen lawrence , neville and doreen lawrence, seemed to have that really significant impact because i was part of that group in the early stages as the national black police association chair. and we got more accountability , more got more accountability, more transparency. chief constables were being held to account by the home secretary, given the independent oversight and of course given real importance to equality, diversity, inclusion . equality, diversity, inclusion. unfortunately, things have unravelled over the last 13 years. since 2010, the independent oversight has gone and chief constables are right right in their own homework and the results speak for themselves. okay, laura leroy, both stephen's parents have spoken this week. his father,

1:24 pm
community, especially if they're suffering from mental health issues . so we're seeing the met issues. so we're seeing the met police has a look and feel of a pre macpherson era , which pre macpherson era, which saddens me to say, but say it because of the way in which people believe they're overpoliced and under—protected and things are not improving in the way they expected from 25 years ago when the report was published and 30 years ago when stephen was murdered by race thugs. okay, leroy , you've been thugs. okay, leroy, you've been described as one of the black officers who helped to change the mat for a positive force for good. yet you decided to leave the good. yet you decided to leave iire ierwe — good. yet you decided to leave iire ierwe wiry— good. yet you decided to leave the force. why did— 3: yet you decided to leave the force. why did you leave the iereee— the force. why did you leave the fewer eee— the force. why did you leave the force? and would _ the force. why did you leave the force? and would it— the force. why did you leave the force? and would it not be ireiier— force? and would it not be eerier ier— force? and would it not be better for you— force? and would it not be better for you to stay and reerwr— better for you to stay and reerwi iire— better for you to stay and reform the force from within in. weii— reform the force from within in. weii i— reform the force from within in. weii i eie— reform the force from within in. weii i did ze— reform the force from within in. well, i did 20 odd— reform the force from within in. well, i did 20 odd years of reierwiee— well, i did 20 odd years of reforming the— well, i did 20 odd years of reforming the force from within. i reforming the force from within. i eie— reforming the force from within. i did wy— reforming the force from within. i did my ee— reforming the force from within. i did my ee veers— reforming the force from within. i did my 30 years in— reforming the force from within. i did my 30 years in the- reforming the force from within. 30 t“ i did my 30 years in the met, and i wanted to do something that i believe i could continue doing under my own steam. um and
1:25 pm
i think it's good to understand when you finish something and you continue on, but public service for me doesn't just switch off like a tap. i'm still involved in, um, public work , involved in, um, public work, mainly through the charity sector , so i'm still an active sector, so i'm still an active advocate for change. and i find that my influence is, especially since a my autobiography, closing ranks and the film made about me by steve mcqueen has given me a platform in my own right to challenge the organisation. and i want to work with people and collaborate and i'm still doing that. and and assisting people to feel they can challenge the police service and they can then feel a sense of justice because even today, neville lawrence is saying he doesn't fully believe he's had justice because there's three outstanding young suspects. um,
1:26 pm
for the murder of his son. and he wants to know that the met police are doing the right thing to get them. and also, all the other sort of underlying issues that we're investigating the family while they were pursuing justice. so, you know, these are sort of things that are still going on. a lot of people are still going through these issues. and we cannot allow it to and we need to continue. and we need accountability and transparency in the met and other police services so that people believe that the police service is there by consent, which is the cornerstone of police legitimacy , policing by consent and having the confidence of the public. leroy, if the case of report is eesieeiiy— leroy, if the case of report is basically concluded, the exact the basically concluded, the exact we see— basically concluded, the exact the same thing— basically concluded, the exact the same thing as the original reperit— the same thing as the original reperi. wirer— the same thing as the original report, what do— the same thing as the original report, what do we need to do to fix report, what do we need to do to ix reis— report, what do we need to do to is we se— report, what do we need to do to fix this so we're— report, what do we need to do to fix this so we're not— report, what do we need to do to fix this so we're not here in 30 veers— fix this so we're not here in 30 yeers iiwe— fix this so we're not here in 30 years time having— fix this so we're not here in 30 years time having the same eeveseieer— years time having the same conversation do conversation once again. what do we—iiere— conversation once again. what do we—iieie weii- conversation once again. what do we_met? well, as. we do to fix the met? well, as i seie— we do to fix the met? well, as i seie. iw— we do to fix the met? well, as i said, i'm really— we do to fix the met? well, as i said, i'm really angry that siiii— said, i'm really angry that we're still talking about this. we we're still talking about this. we eeei— we're still talking about this. we need-ethical— we're still talking about this. we need an ethical leadership. as already said , we need
1:27 pm
as i've already said, we need the commissioner, another chief constable, recognise and fully accept that the institutional racism is there because it's only when you acknowledge something you'll do something about it. because i was in the room the macpherson report room when the macpherson report was published in february 99th. i was in the room when sir paul condon, who was the commissioner at the time , accepted the at the time, accepted the institutional racism and he saw it as an aspiration to do good, to do better , and to prove to do better, and to prove people wrong, to say, listen , people wrong, to say, listen, the police can get through this barrier and can be a service and not an occupying force. and as i said, we saw culture change that first ten years with the independent independent oversight by the stephen lawrence steering group . so lawrence steering group. so i just want to see that repeat it. we need mark rowley to acknowledge institutional racism, but because he hasn't got the political pressure from the home secretary suella braverman and she basically allowing him to say, well, i don't accept it. i know the
1:28 pm

courts. so effectively abusing the rule of law. and i think that's a very , very slippery that's a very, very slippery slope to go down. and i think that's one that is worrying many, many people . only recently many, many people. only recently we saw the former lord chief justice, and that's the lord chief justice, someone who is in charge of courts england, charge of the courts of england, not courts , not the strasbourg courts, again, saying is again, saying that this is a very, very dangerous thing to do. it sets a very bad example . do. it sets a very bad example. and i think this is one of the things that we need to really be concerned about so that by concerned about. so that by saying they're very concerned that strasbourg erg, the european union , the echr has the european union, the echr has the power to overturn british law. but into the detail of this law, is ir— but into the detail of this law, is i eeieeiiy— but into the detail of this law, is it actually going to have any were— is it actually going to have any teeth? because— is it actually going to have any teeth? because there is still a eiese— teeth? because there is still a is ie— teeth? because there is still a clause in this— teeth? because there is still a clause in this law,— teeth? because there is still a clause in this law, isn't there, iirer— clause in this law, isn't there, we ii— clause in this law, isn't there, that if people's— clause in this law, isn't there, that if people's lives are in iwwieeei— that if people's lives are in imminent danger, then they will not imminent danger, then they will eei ee— imminent danger, then they will eei ire eeie— imminent danger, then they will not be able to— imminent danger, then they will not be able to be— imminent danger, then they will not be able to be deported. and sereiy— not be able to be deported. and sereiy iirer— not be able to be deported. and surely that means— not be able to be deported. and surely that means a lot of peepie— surely that means a lot of peepie resi— surely that means a lot of people just say, well, my life is ie— people just say, well, my life is in imminent— people just say, well, my life is in imminent danger. does this law is in imminent danger. does this iew-eey— is in imminent danger. does this iew-eey fewes— is in imminent danger. does this iew-eey ieees er- is in imminent danger. does this law-any fangs or is- is in imminent danger. does this law any fangs or is it yet law have any fangs or is it yet more _from the - law have any fangs or is it yet more from the tories law have any fangs or is it yet. more _from the tories ?

2:23 pm
stop and search the offender profile. there was 93% of those people stopped were white working class lads because they were known perpetrators who were the known perpetrators who fitted profiles in fitted offender profiles in certain areas. and you're right about the racial makeup of perpetrators in london, 13% of the population are from a black origin, but 45% of people murdered are black young men. 61% of perpetrators . so by that 61% of perpetrators. so by that reckoning and following from glasgow's lead, is it not a fair assumption to make the stopping and searching young black men? isn't about racial profiling. it's about trying to save lives. of those most likely to die . of those most likely to die. let me say this marks the inference— let me say this marks the difference between the glasgow ieee— difference between the glasgow ieee eni— difference between the glasgow lead and what's— difference between the glasgow lead and what's happening here in ionion— lead and what's happening here in ionion is— lead and what's happening here in london is, is— lead and what's happening here in london is, is the racial rnekewp— in london is, is the racial rnekewp. ine— in london is, is the racial makeup. the people that were iner— makeup. the people that were we ee— makeup. the people that were that are police— makeup. the people that were that are police in— makeup. the people that were that are police in scotland are eiso— that are police in scotland are eiso e— that are police in scotland are eiso e peri— that are police in scotland are eiso e pen or— that are police in scotland are also a part of the— that are police in scotland are also a part of the mix of that verv— also a part of the mix of that verv see— also a part of the mix of that very same community. so you sen-i— very same community. so you sent reki— very same community. so you can't tell one— very same community. so you can't tell one from the other. pwi— can't tell one from the other. pwi wnei— can't tell one from the other. pwi we we — can't tell one from the other. but what we have here quite eieeriv— but what we have here quite eieeriv is— but what we have here quite eieeriv is e— but what we have here quite clearly is a different slant

2:36 pm
crystal ball. and sometimes i do like to refer to them as a mystics . but realistically, mystics. but realistically, we're not going to see the housing crash that we've had in in history's time simply because back then you could also get your mortgage on a much higher loan to your salary. so back then you could get a mortgage on 4 or 5 times your salary, whereas there's no lender that's going to do that. now so but also historically, the base rate was much, much higher at those times as well. in the early 90 seconds and late 80 seconds, we were looking at a base rate of over 14. there's no chance of us seeing that again . so that seeing that again. so that offset against the rate of inflation really won't see a housing crash come the only people that are going to really see an impact here at the moment are those that are looking to remortgage , because obviously remortgage, because obviously they're going to picking up they're going to be picking up they're going to be picking up the rates those are the new rates and those who are on rate mortgages on variable rate mortgages because obviously, it says on because obviously, as it says on the it's variable depending the tin, it's variable depending on whether the rates up or on whether the rates go up or down. now well, first of all, thank you for that. you've been
