1:20 pm
i think china making loads of cheap for the whole world cheap stuff for the whole world is another we've had low is another reason we've had low inflation for years inflation for about 15 years until last couple of years. until the last couple of years. and reason why was, you and a big reason why was, you know, into the know, immigration into the labour particularly for labour market, particularly for things goods, things like agricultural goods, food building. et food processing, building. et cetera. construction cetera. et cetera. construction ian one thing. ian so that's one thing. it's helped inflation and helped keep inflation low. and of we'd of course, politicians say we'd like inflation low. i like to keep inflation low. i think it really doesn't it doesn't really matter. it's let me a counter example me give you a counter example here. china, for instance, here. so china, for instance, has around million people has around 1.1 million people even now , i'm going from country even now, i'm going from country to city every year. and that's a high growth economy. it's becoming a more innovative economy of what that economy because of what that looks like. so you can see a world we have very large immigration in this country and it still leads to high gdp, high growth, rising productivity. it's plausible in the realms of abstraction. i mean, look at somewhere like dubai or the uae. you know, an economic you know, it's an economic powerhouse the back of powerhouse off the back of immigration. however that isn't the that had . but the model that we've had. but you absolute massive 20, 25 you have absolute massive 20, 25 years. you absolutely years. you have absolutely massive places massive inequality in places like , of course, places like dubai, of course, places like dubai, of course, places like kong , you have

1:22 pm
he said that britain, by 2050 is predicted to be 50% white, roughly around 85% now, and 75% non—white in primary schools by 2050. now, this indicates clearly a very rapid and very strong cultural change and dare i say it, religious change as well. and the evidence of how integration hasn't necessarily always worked is plain to see in places like bradford, russia, wakefield , etcetera. we all know wakefield, etcetera. we all know the kind of areas around the uk, so rapid high speed population growth that involves different cultures and different religions who are, by the way, very keen and in some ways i've got massive respect for them because i wish the british people were keen, as keen to cling on to their culture as some people coming of coming from different parts of the world, but people who were very to their very keen to cling on to their cultures, therefore cultures, then therefore obviously end up dominating obviously can end up dominating areas real areas and that can be a real risk. but you know , it's not so risk. but you know, it's not so much about this, you know, much just about this, you know, racial differences anything much just about this, you know, racis'thatferences anything much just about this, you know, racis'that orences anything much just about this, you know, racis'that or religiousanything like that or religious differences or cultural differences. i really do think it's pace it. it's the
1:23 pm
it's the pace of it. it's the absolutely pace of it. and absolutely rapid pace of it. and when those when you look at those demographic predictions, it is reasonable we reasonable to suggest that we have reached the point have already reached the point of return . yeah and just very of no return. yeah and just very tasty— of no return. yeah and just very tasttv to— of no return. yeah and just very tasttv to tnat— of no return. yeah and just very lastly to that point,— of no return. yeah and just very lastly to that point, you- / and just very lastly to that point, you you i ton-t— lastly to that point, you you i ton-t tnint— lastly to that point, you you i don't think you— lastly to that point, you you i don't think you answered that point— don't think you answered that point eartier— don't think you answered that point earlier in— don't think you answered that point earlier in the discussion . to— point earlier in the discussion . to vot— point earlier in the discussion . to vot tnint— point earlier in the discussion . do you think that it is a prottem — . do you think that it is a problem that— . do you think that it is a problem that we're seeing such rapit— problem that we're seeing such rapid cultural— problem that we're seeing such rapid cultural change in this sotntrve — rapid cultural change in this country? well,— rapid cultural change in this country? well, i- rapid cultural change in this country? epic: rapid cultural change in this country? well, i think what matters is to voters think it's a problem. you know, i mean, i can give my two bobs one, aaron, doesit can give my two bobs one, aaron, does it worry you? does it worry you?— does it worry you? does it worry you? i— does it worry you? does it worry you? i mean— does it worry you? does it worry you? i ,— does it worry you? does it worry you? i , it— does it worry you? does it worry you? i mean , it depends- : g 7 does it worry you? i mean , it depends where, you? i mean, it depends where, for you? i mean, it depends where, tor istanse— you? i mean, it depends where, tor istanse i— you? i mean, it depends where, for instance, i disagree with too— for instance, i disagree with too peopte— for instance, i disagree with 300 people being dumped in a smatt— 300 people being dumped in a smatt vittage— 300 people being dumped in a small village who are claiming asvttm.— small village who are claiming asvttm. — small village who are claiming asvttm. |ttint— small village who are claiming asylum. ithink if— small village who are claiming asylum. �*" : asylum. i think if london has an extra 100,000 people who are brown or black, i don't think that makes the slightest difference. so in terms of in terms of migrants going to larger cities high larger cities with high population already very population density already very mixed, frankly mixed, i don't think i frankly think very people would think very few people would nofice think very few people would notice and think this actually gets core of what gets to the core of what happened with brexit. lots of people said, places with people said, oh, the places with the are the
1:24 pm
the least immigration are the most . they oppose brexit. most racist. they oppose brexit. but you look at someone like boston, instance, the boston, for instance, the capital of brexit, it yes, it had still very white, but had it was still very white, but actually it's in most actually it's in the most demographic after demographic change after 2004. so even though it's still very white, seemingly very white, still seemingly very homogenous, had homogenous, it had changed a great and i think what great deal. and i think what we're this wave we're seeing now with this wave is a different. mean, is a bit different. i mean, let's see. but because of the educational of elements of educational kind of elements of it, these people are generally gravitating towards university towns, larger cities, places which be honest, are more which let's be honest, are more comfortable demographic comfortable with demographic change of change and the pace of demographic so i'm not demographic change. so i'm not making any conclusions off the back i think that back of that, but i think that looks little bit different to looks a little bit different to say, eastern european is say, central eastern european is going bognor or going to boston or bognor or skegness in the mid 2000. yeah, well, what we do know- skegness in the mid 2000. yeah, well, what we do know is- g 1�* r: $7000 yeah, well, what we do know is that tnis— well, what we do know is that tnislgoing— well, what we do know is that tnislgoing to— well, what we do know is that this-going to be— well, what we do know is that this-going to be a- well, what we do know is that this going to be a massive this is going to be a massive neatasne— this is going to be a massive headache for— this is going to be a massive headache for the— this is going to be a massive headache for the government to try headache for the government to trvlevptain— headache for the government to try-explain these— headache for the government to try explain these figures to try to explain these figures to the try to explain these figures to tne ptttis— try to explain these figures to the public who— try to explain these figures to the public who thought that theyj were trying to bring the numbers tovn— were trying to bring the numbers town—naivetv. l down anyway. perhaps naively. inant— down anyway. perhaps naively. inant vot— down anyway. perhaps naively. inant vot verv— down anyway. perhaps naively. thank you very much indeed. aaron— thank you very much indeed. aaron co—founder aaron bastani, co—founder of novara— aaron bastani, co—founder of novara media— aaron bastani, co—founder of novara media and news novara media and gb news presenter— novara media and gb news presenter there _ novara media and gb news presenter there patrick christys tatt— presenter there patrick christys iatt ts— presenter there patrick christys talk us through— presenter there patrick christys talk us through those potential net migration—

hhah-s— the common fisheries policy. so has she— the common fisheries policy. so that's one that,— the common fisheries policy. so that's one that, for— the common fisheries policy. so that's one that, for example , that's one that, for example, shaaha— that's one that, for example, shaaha 90— that's one that, for example, should go because ministers in the should go because ministers in hhe hh— should go because ministers in the uk cannot— should go because ministers in the uk cannot make decisions as to the uk cannot make decisions as ha ha— the uk cannot make decisions as to do something— the uk cannot make decisions as to do something slightly shherehh— to do something slightly different to _ to do something slightly different to diverge from the eu in hhah— different to diverge from the eu in that respect. _ different to diverge from the eu in that respect. whilst that's shah— in that respect. whilst that's shhhh ah— in that respect. whilst that's shhhh ah hhe— in that respect. whilst that's still on the statute books. so heh-s— still on the statute books. so as ea— still on the statute books. so as aeh rah— still on the statute books. so let's get rid of— still on the statute books. so let's get rid of that. it has hhe— let's get rid of that. it has hhe aawer— let's get rid of that. it has hhe aawer ah— let's get rid of that. it has the power of law, it's enforceable.- the power of law, it's enforceable. state member states have— enforceable. state member states have ha— enforceable. state member states have ha sarhahy— enforceable. state member states have to comply with it. it's shah— have to comply with it. it's still sitting _ have to comply with it. it's still sitting there. so those sarh— still sitting there. so those sarh ah— still sitting there. so those sort of things— still sitting there. so those sort of things to change. sort of things need to change. hah— sort of things need to change. hahlhhe— sort of things need to change. but-the other— sort of things need to change. but the other hand, are but on the other hand, there are ahsa— but on the other hand, there are also regulations— but on the other hand, there are also regulations there that also regulations in there that arewehh— also regulations in there that arewehh-hrhaarh- also regulations in there that prevent import and prevent that the import and ehaarh— prevent that the import and ehaahlaaa— prevent that the import and export-dog and- prevent that the import and export dog and cat fur. \r:irri export of dog and cat fur. now haw— export of dog and cat fur. now haw many— export of dog and cat fur. now haw many-hhas- export of dog and cat fur. now how many this country how many people in this country would to see the uk would really like to see the uk importing exporting dog or importing and exporting dog or cat fur? probably very, very few. — cat fur? probably very, very few. sa — cat fur? probably very, very few. so that— cat fur? probably very, very few. so that regulation actually has some, um, some merit, but that's in there to be removed as well without any particular replacement. and if you look at in detailed way uk law, the parliament has or the government has introduced a law that now gives the secretary of state the power using a statutory instrument to bypass that and to allow now the import and export
2:15 pm
import and export of dog fur. do we want that? so i don't think this has been thought through by the government fully. and the result is they presented this as 4000 pieces of eu legislation that must go to break away from the european union and have suddenly found that actually some of it is actually quite useful and some of it they don't really know what the consequence is. ah, they haven't thought it through. my final point on that just very quickly is that this signifies the real betrayal of brexit, which is that the government in fact no politician in this country has presented a clear vision and a clear roadmap as to how we achieve that vision. post brexit, what do we want to be? what do we want to do with agriculture, fisheries, defence security? immigration, borders trade? never borders, trade? this never happened. borders, trade? this never happened . it still never happened. it still never happened. it still never happened and therefore , how do happened and therefore, how do you draw up a really relevant list of eu legislation that you want to get of that that's want to get rid of that that's there prevents you from developing new policy? so there's a whole load of things
2:16 pm
to unpack on this. it's a failure of government and failure of government and failure of government and failure of public administration and a failure to which i've always said there's nothing new in what i'm saying here of brexiteers as leading brexiteers , elected and otherwise , to lay , elected and otherwise, to lay down a clear vision and say that's where we want to go, that still needs to be done. well, there you go. i mean,- g : : well, there you go. i mean, it's very shhhsahh— there you go. i mean, it's very difficult for— there you go. i mean, it's very difficult for the _ there you go. i mean, it's very difficult for the conservative aawerhrhehh— difficult for the conservative government under its new heaaershha— government under its new leadership to— government under its new leadership to do so , knowing leadership to do so, knowing hhah— leadership to do so, knowing hhah a— leadership to do so, knowing that a general— leadership to do so, knowing that a general election is sarhha— that a general election is sarhha very— that a general election is coming very soon and with aaaaharhhy— coming very soon and with popularity pretty low to set out awhahe— popularity pretty low to set out awhahe ew— popularity pretty low to set out a whole new vision . but i take a whole new vision. but i take yaar— a whole new vision. but i take yaar rahh— a whole new vision. but i take yaar aahh hhah— a whole new vision. but i take your point that they they haweh-h— your point that they they haven't done— your point that they they haven't done so yet. dennis what do haven't done so yet. dennis what has yaa— haven't done so yet. dennis what has yaa hhhhh— haven't done so yet. dennis what has yaa hhhha a— haven't done so yet. dennis what do you think? a lot— haven't done so yet. dennis what do you think? a lot of brexiteers _ do you think? a lot of brexiteers thought that one of the brexiteers thought that one of hhe hrsh— brexiteers thought that one of the first things— brexiteers thought that one of the first things the government waaha— the first things the government waaha aa— the first things the government would do would— the first things the government would do would be to go through all would do would be to go through ahh ah— would do would be to go through ahh a hhese— would do would be to go through all of these eu— would do would be to go through all of these eu laws and regulations— all of these eu laws and regulations with a fine tooth saah— regulations with a fine tooth comb, decide _ regulations with a fine tooth comb, decide which ones benefit our economy, benefit our shhhzehs — our economy, benefit our citizens, which- our economy, benefit our citizens, which ones don't , citizens, which ones don't, whhsh— citizens, which ones don't, whhsh shes— citizens, which ones don't, which ones can— citizens, which ones don't, which ones can be amended a ahhe— which ones can be amended a hhhhhe ha.— which ones can be amended a little bit. it's— which ones can be amended a little bit. it's not— which ones can be amended a little bit. it's not beyond the wit little bit. it's not beyond the whh ah— little bit. it's not beyond the whh a shah— little bit. it's not beyond the whh a .— little bit. it's not beyond the wit of man , is— little bit. it's not beyond the wit of man , is it? are the civil wit of man, is it? are the civil serwahhs— wit of man, is it? are the civil serwahhs ah— wit of man, is it? are the civil servants at fault— wit of man, is it? are the civil servants at fault here? c: servants at fault here? good hara— servants at fault here? good harsh ha— servants at fault here? good harsh ha .— servants at fault here? good harsh ha . h— servants at fault here? good lord, no . i mean,-

democratic vote this country has ever known decided not to stay in the eu and be governed by its laws. deceitful politicians in westminster have decided that they are above the will of the british public. it does appear that way, lucy says . i shall that way, lucy says. i shall never regret voting for brexit, but we have been disastrously let down by our politicians, especially sunak, who is not our elected prime minister. he has reneged on promises to shred thousands of eu laws and protect our borders. well, this does link to crazy net link to those crazy net migration figures that we may well be seeing come the end of the month. for the past year , the month. for the past year, people voted to brexit control our borders, take back control and it seems like our politicians have very much lost control anyway . clive says the control anyway. clive says the eu laws were determined by the eu laws were determined by the eu members at the time. one of which was the uk. they are our laws. well there's the alternative view. we accepted them, then we should accept them now. we should in our now. we should keep them in our statute i think that statute books. i think that we should through of them, should look through all of them, decide serve us, decide which ones serve us, which ones don't, and go from

2:30 pm
just, you know, it's a huge problem affecting the economy and affecting the rest of the health care service . and many health care service. and many have had to turn to private savings in order to pay for operations and may even be fleecing themselves , you know, fleecing themselves, you know, of thousands of pounds that they may not have or borrowing money. so it's a huge ripple effect . so it's a huge ripple effect. yes. and lucy, it seems to me hhah— yes. and lucy, it seems to me hhah hs— yes. and lucy, it seems to me hhah hh-s hhe— yes. and lucy, it seems to me that it's the way— yes. and lucy, it seems to me that it's the way you receive aas— that it's the way you receive nhs treatment— that it's the way you receive nhs treatment .— that it's the way you receive nhs treatment . it differs nhs treatment. it differs areahhy— nhs treatment. it differs greatly depending on where ye— greatly depending on where you're situated— greatly depending on where you're situated . we've seen you're situated. we've seen heaahhes— you're situated. we've seen headlines this— you're situated. we've seen headlines this week 1010 nhs hrashs— headlines this week 1010 nhs trusts responsible for nearly hah— trusts responsible for nearly hah ah— trusts responsible for nearly hah a hh-s— trusts responsible for nearly half of uk's patient backlog. so it half of uk's patient backlog. so a easy— half of uk's patient backlog. so a reahhy hs— half of uk's patient backlog. so a reahhy as a— half of uk's patient backlog. so it really is a bit— half of uk's patient backlog. so it really is a bit of— half of uk's patient backlog. so it really is a bit of a postcode hahhery— it really is a bit of a postcode hahhery wheh— it really is a bit of a postcode lottery when it— it really is a bit of a postcode lottery when it comes to how aahshhy— lottery when it comes to how aahshhy yaa-re— lottery when it comes to how quickly you're going to be seen aha— quickly you're going to be seen and hreahesh— quickly you're going to be seen and treated. now,— quickly you're going to be seen and treated. now, the prime washer.— and treated. now, the prime minister, i'm— and treated. now, the prime minister, i'm sure you've reaarhea— minister, i'm sure you've reaahea ah— minister, i'm sure you've reported on this, he's come out to reported on this, he's come out ha say— reported on this, he's come out ha say were— reported on this, he's come out ha say going— reported on this, he's come out to say we're going to have more warh— to say we're going to have more warh ha— to say we're going to have more work to pharmacists to give gp's wesh— work to pharmacists to give gp's wehh ha— work to pharmacists to give gp's well to reduce— work to pharmacists to give gp's well to reduce their— work to pharmacists to give gp's well to reduce their workload aha— well to reduce their workload and sa— well to reduce their workload and sa hhah— well to reduce their workload and so that people get seen more aahshhy— and so that people get seen more aahshhy. whah-s— and so that people get seen more quickly. what's the— and so that people get seen more quickly. what's the response yae— quickly. what's the response you've seen to— quickly. what's the response you've seen to that policy idea

7 you've seen to that policy idea a wash— you've seen to that policy idea a wash hhe— you've seen to that policy idea ? well, the pharmacists- you've seen to that policy idea 7 you've seen to that policy idea ? well, the pharmacists are keen to do more work and they want to be more involved in health care , but they claim they don't have the resources to do it. they say that they've got about a million, £1 billion worth of debt or a hole in their funding from government over the last ten years, and that the money that's going towards encouraging them or bringing them into doing more treatment for patients is not nearly enough. it's about 624 million over the next two years. so they say they can't do it. they haven't got the resources to do it. and some doctors are very worried as well about pharmacists taking on decisions that they think need a lot of training . some doctors lot of training. some doctors are saying to me that it actually takes a lot of clinical skill to decide if someone needs antibiotics, for example . and if antibiotics, for example. and if you get it wrong, obviously
2:32 pm
someone can die and if you're over prescribing antibiotics, you end up risking an increase in multiple resistant or drug resistant antibacterial or bacterial infections , which can bacterial infections, which can be deadly. so that's a difficult decision. but most of the work that the pharmacists are being asked to do probably doesn't involve many drugs or any drugs. most earaches , coughs, colds most earaches, coughs, colds just get better on their own. so it's not going to take much of the work off the health care service, which really is dealing with doctors are dealing with very complex cases . an ageing very complex cases. an ageing population . and the problem is population. and the problem is that we have reform after reform and we have to somehow wrestle the political posturing out of the political posturing out of the health care service . we have the health care service. we have to look at how to look long term instead of short term fixes and headune instead of short term fixes and headline grabbing news. and
2:33 pm
really, it needs to we need an it system that works. we need a weekend work. we'd actually increase the throughput, but the doctors won't do i mean, to do that and social care is lucy i mean a lot of us think there should be root and branch reform of the nhs . instead, we have of the nhs. instead, we have aahhhhshahs— of the nhs. instead, we have politicians around— \r instead, we have politicians around the edges for aahhhhsah— politicians around the edges for political reasons.— politicians around the edges for political reasons. we'll see whah— political reasons. we'll see whah happens. — political reasons. we'll see what happens. but it's hardly sararhsha. — what happens. but it's hardly surprising. after— what happens. but it's hardly surprising. after lockdown that our surprising. after lockdown that wahhha— surprising. after lockdown that our waiting list— surprising. after lockdown that our waiting list are so high. we shay— our waiting list are so high. we shay ahher— our waiting list are so high. we see story after story of thousands— see story after story of thousands of- see story after story of thousands of people not getting ahaahases— thousands of people not getting diagnoses-left— thousands of people not getting diagnoses left and now on diagnoses being left and now on wahhha— diagnoses being left and now on wahhha hhshs— diagnoses being left and now on waiting lists. it— diagnoses being left and now on waiting lists. it really is a herrhhhe— waiting lists. it really is a terrible state _ waiting lists. it really is a terrible state affairs. but terrible state of affairs. but hhahh— terrible state of affairs. but thank-much- terrible state of affairs. but thank-much for. terrible state of affairs. but- thank-much for bringing thank you very much for bringing us thank you very much for bringing as aa— thank you very much for bringing as as ha— thank you very much for bringing as as ha hahe— thank you very much for bringing us up to date. lucy— thank you very much for bringing us up to date. lucy johnston hhere— us up to date. lucy johnston there. health— us up to date. lucy johnston there. health social affairs there. health and social affairs esahar— there. health and social affairs esahar-sahaay- editor at the sunday express. vaa— editor at the sunday express. you course, watching and you are, of course, watching and ashehha— you are, of course, watching and listening—sunday. listening to gb news sunday with me, listening to gb news sunday with rue-cane..— listening to gb news sunday with me,-c.we..-got- listening to gb news sunday with me,-carver.-got lotsi me, emily carver. we've got lots sashe— me, emily carver. we've got lots sarhha aa— me, emily carver. we've got lots more coming up on— me, emily carver. we've got lots more coming up on today's show. hahaar— more coming up on today's show. hahaar wahhs— more coming up on today's show. labour wants expand the labour wants to expand the hrahshhse— labour wants to expand the franchise nationals. is franchise to eu nationals. is hear— franchise to eu nationals. is keir starmer— franchise to eu nationals. is keir starmer trying to rig hahhe— keir starmer trying to rig wahha—hhsl keir starmer trying to rig- voting_his remainer voting to appease his remainer hahs?— voting to appease his remainer hahs-a hah— voting to appease his remainer pals? but first,— voting to appease his remainer pals? but first, let's get the wahh— pals? but first, let's get the news with rory— pals? but first, let's get the

2:47 pm
history, but i think there are some real dangers of taking that to, know, a literal degree. to, you know, a literal degree. no taxation without representation . and the representation. and the interesting thing, way, interesting thing, by the way, about at and i7, about votes at 16 and i7, normally it's the masses who are demand in an extension of the vote. and the elites who are usually trying to resist it with votes at 1617, it's actually an inversion of that. it's the other way round. it tends to be the elites and broadly the liberal elites who are demanding votes for 16 and 17 year olds. and most of the people out there kind of think, well, actually i couldn't be trusted with the vote. i couldn't be trusted with a at 16 years of age, let a kettle at 16 years of age, let alone vote. so, you know, alone the vote. so, you know, i think most people out there in the court public public the court of public public opinion their eyebrow opinion raised their eyebrow and say, not 16 and 17 say, um, no, not for 16 and 17 year olds and think of their own kind and activities at kind of views and activities at that age and think, i couldn't have been trusted with choosing a i was still a government. i was still getting at school. so getting detention at school. so the, idea, i think, is the, the whole idea, i think, is a nonsense and should a complete nonsense and should be rejected. i think so that's all we've time for on that all we've got time for on that
