4:30 pm
was designated as green belt or a playing field. and the playing field eventually got the houses. the problem for any government is that that everyone wants more houses, but no one wants the estates built next door to them . yeah, but that can be an tat— . yeah, but that can be an issue. but he's— yeah, but that can be an issue. but he's making these otomtsos— issue. but he's making these promises that— issue. but he's making these promises that he's going to aotaattw— promises that he's going to actually build— promises that he's going to actually build on the green tott- — actually build on the green tott- .— actually build on the green belt. i don't— actually build on the green belt. i don't think. i think to-s— belt. i don't think. i think to-s going— belt. i don't think. i think to-s gotta to— belt. i don't think. i think he's going to get a lot of ottoottot— he's going to get a lot of objection from - he's going to get a lot of objection from that. but nigel, wtat— objection from that. but nigel, wtat-tts— objection from that. but nigel, what-his policy- what about his policy with regatt— what about his policy with. regard—tax regard to taking out the tax treats— regard to taking out the tax breaks independent schools breaks from independent schools 7 breaks from independent schools a _atoat. tts— breaks from independent schools ? _mean, the question. ? well, i mean, the question there is that i think people should be allowed their should be allowed to spend their money wish . however money as they wish. however i don't particularly as a taxpayer , want to be subsidising their choice is so if somebody wants to send their child to a private school , good luck to them. but school, good luck to them. but don't think that the taxpayer should should subsidise that and they should pay the full amount. so it seems to make sense to take away the charitable status of private schools and use that money for more teachers and the state sector. do you think that that works out? matthew i can
4:31 pm

can get a grip on crime and make our streets safer, i live not far away. i live around the corner, not far away from here. and streets do not feel and the streets do not feel safe. can deliver on safe. and if he can deliver on that, that's very good news. well, said he would. aidan well, he said he would. aidan mootwott— well, he said he would. aidan mcgivern final— well, he said he would. aidan mcgivern final word you. mcgivern final word to you. vow-o— mcgivern final word to you. voa-o— - mcgivern final word to you.| voa-o— vas- mcgivern final word to you.- you've_ yes. and you've got about 20s. yes. and i ttttt— you've got about 20s. yes. and i think starmer, think in terms of keir starmer, again, been saying, again, as we've all been saying, he changes his mind. i genuinely don't we trust him on don't think we can trust him on anything say . anything that he has to say. well, listen, thank you very mug.— well, listen, thank you very much,-stadler,- well, listen, thank you very much, stadler, nigel much, matthew stadler, nigel totsot— much, matthew stadler, nigel. nelson _ mcgovern much, matthew stadler, nigel- nelson_mcgovern . nelson and also anna mcgovern. vow-to— nelson and also anna mcgovern. touts—nata- nelson and also anna mcgovern. you're—nana covid.| nelson and also anna mcgovern. you'iis_nana covid.| nelson and also anna mcgovern. you'iis gb nana covid. nelson and also anna mcgovern. you'iis gb news nana covid. nelson and also anna mcgovern. you'iis gb news on nana covid. nelson and also anna mcgovern. you'iis gb news on tv,ia covid. nelson and also anna mcgovern. you'iis gb news on tv, online d. nelson and also anna mcgovern. you'iis gb news on tv, online on this is gb news on tv, online on the this is gb news on tv, online on tte-tatto— this is gb news on tv, online on tte-tatto .— this is gb news on tv, online on the-radio . after- this is gb news on tv, online on the-radio . after the- the digital radio. after the treat,— the digital radio. after the break, continue the digital radio. after the- break,-continue-the break, we'll continue with the goat—tts- break, we'll continue with thei great—this hour. great british debate this hour. i'm great british debate this hour. t-m—tatow-s- great british debate this hour. i'm labour's policies i'm asking are labour's policies aattttg—toat- i'm asking are labour's policiesj putting _hear the putting you off? you'll hear the ttoagtts— thoughts of my panel, broadcaster- thoughts of my panel, broadcaster lizzie broadcaster and columnist lizzie catty— broadcaster and columnist lizzie catty-atso— broadcaster and columnist lizzie cundy-also former- broadcaster and columnist lizzie cundy also former editor of cundy and also former editor of the cundy and also former editor of tte—tota— cundy and also former editor of the—peter edwards. l cundy and also former editor of the first, peter edwards. cundy and also former editor of the first, let's peter edwards. cundy and also former editor of the first, let's pettyourwards. cundy and also former editor of the first, let's pettyour latest but first, let's get your latest news-. thanks- but first, let's get your latest. news-. thanks nana. news headlines. thanks nana. tan.— news headlines. thanks nana. atoz. tm— news headlines. thanks nana. atoz. tat rav— news headlines. thanks nana. 4:32. i'm ray addison- news headlines. thanks nana. 4:32. i'm ray addison in- news headlines. thanks nana. 4:32. i'm ray addison in the newsroom. philips schofield has announced that he's stepping down from itv's flagship daytime am show this morning with immediate effect. itv has confirmed that he won't be

5:12 pm
three children previously . we. three children previously. we. we in love and decided to we fell in love and decided to get married . and obviously after get married. and obviously after getting married , can we have getting married, can we have children ? and obviously, the children? and obviously, the unfortunate thing for us was after her third delivery, she had her tubes cut. oh, no. so we had her tubes cut. oh, no. so we had to obviously circumvent that issue . and as such, we're both issue. and as such, we're both healthy young individuals. they anticipated one round. you guys should have a win . so how old should have a win. so how old was should have a win. so how old meme— should have a win. so how old was patrice at— should have a win. so how old was patrice at the— should have a win. so how old was patrice at the time?- : “ so how old was patrice at the time?

5:13 pm
tried again. we went through eight failed attempts before finally getting it a success. on our ninth, we had a little angel baby whom we called angelique. angquue baby whom we called angelique. angelique how cute. how cute. but how angelique how cute. how cute. em how we— angelique how cute. how cute. but how did you— angelique how cute. how cute. but how did you fund- ' “gmi m:mi l011 how cute. but how did you fund this then? eeeewee— but how did you fund this then? because you— but how did you fund this then? because wow |— but how did you fund this then? because you i mean, it sounds wk.— because you i mean, it sounds like wow— because you i mean, it sounds like you wem— because you i mean, it sounds like you went all— because you i mean, it sounds like you went all about the memes— like you went all about the homes me— like you went all about the houses to get— like you went all about the houses to get the money. if it's emooo. — houses to get the money. if it's emooo. vee— houses to get the money. if it's $15,000. yes every— houses to get the money. if it's $15,000. yes every time. every time — $15,000. yes every time. every me. me— $15,000. yes every time. every time. and eight— $15,000. yes every time. every time. and eight times 15,000. wee— time. and eight times 15,000. wee mem— time. and eight times 15,000. was that about— time. and eight times 15,000. was that about 150, i suppose. sememmg— was that about 150, i suppose. something like— was that about 150, i suppose. something like that. _ was that about 150, i suppose. something like that. like- was that about 150, i suppose. something like that. like that, yeah. yeah. i suppose . obviously yeah. yeah. i suppose. obviously we did all the usual things, you know, we tried to get a second mortgage on the house. we did rack up about $60,000 in credit card debt . and i think what kind card debt. and i think what kind of precipitated everything for me was that , you know, as me was that, you know, as i said, i worked there for my father. unfortunately my father and i had a bit of a tenuous relationship. and right after angquue relationship. and right after angelique was born , so angelique was born, so i borrowed some money from my dad. i didn't pay him back. borrowed some money from my dad. i didn't pay him back . and he i didn't pay him back. and he told me basically, don't ever call me again. that might sound

basically put the money in front of me. i took the money, put it into a bag. i left my total involvement with the teller was probably less than 30s, but i knew exactly what the teller was going to do. and as such, i knew i didn't need to do anything to threaten or scare the teller into doing what i wanted. but then you got caught. how did you get-ultimately— then you got caught. how did you get ultimately when get caught? ultimately when ewewmme— get caught? ultimately when everything-and- get caught? ultimately when everything and done , i everything was said and done, i reamed— everything was said and done, i reamed-wee— everything was said and done, i realised-was this- everything was said and done, i realised was this was a realised this was this was a me— realised this was this was a we wee— realised this was this was a we e— realised this was this was a this was a dead— realised this was this was a this was a dead end road. gmi. this was a dead end road. i got a job-— this was a dead end road. i got nnw job- mm— this was a dead end road. i got a new job. i'm more— this was a dead end road. i got a new job. i'm more than doubled my salary. we were ready to move on. robbed a bank. now on. i hadn't robbed a bank. now in nine months and i was robbing a bank every single month. previously so you actually doing this previously so you actually doing mm and— previously so you actually doing mm and getting— previously so you actually doing this and getting away— j”tim so you actually doing this and getting away with it? vee- — this and getting away with it? vee- wow— this and getting away with it? vee- wew — this and getting away with it? vee- wew .— this and getting away with it? yes. wow i robbed- this and getting away with it? yes. wow : �*iz�*m i“ yes. wow i robbed 12 banks in total. and after i'd robbed these 12 banks, the fbi was after me and they'd given me a moniker called the motorcycle badman bandit because i used to carry a motorcycle helmet and wear gloves. when i went into the bank. but when i left the bank, i would get into my car or my truck and there were several

almost half of working parents have been pushed into debt by child care costs and at the moment they can get some free childcare for very young children. it's not as children. but it's not as comprehensive as schooling . and comprehensive as schooling. and according to the family, childcare trust, it costs more than £14,000 a year. that's right. to keep children under the age of two. in nursery. and that's as the average cost of raising a child has risen to roughly £200,000. and all of this comes after boris johnson has announced that he's expecting his eighth child. and i think it's eighth. so for the great british debate this hour, i'm asking, should child care costs come out of our taxes ? costs come out of our taxes? right. well, i'm joined now by beunda right. well, i'm joined now by belinda de lucy. she's a former brexit party mep and political commentator rebecca reed, author and broadcaster. i'm going to start with you, belinda . you've start with you, belinda. you've got five kids, five. oh, my god . and how did you pay for all of them? just for is it four? i've added an extra. that'll be your husband, though . yeah, exactly . husband, though. yeah, exactly. he's definitely a child. yes.
