is exactly -the - not a betrayal of brexit. this is exactly the people who is exactly what the people who sambaiaasa— is exactly what the people who sambaiaasa tai— is exactly what the people who campaigned for brexit asked for . -nos.— campaigned for brexit asked for . -aat. bat— campaigned for brexit asked for . -n0t, but let's- campaigned for brexit asked fori . -n0t, but let's move . well, it's not, but let's move on to matthew stadler next. matthew, what do you take about the idea of it's fine and well to bring tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of nhs workers, carers and today it was announced we need 10,000 teachers from nigeria and india . but what about the idea that we're taking all the best skills from overseas, a kind of reverse colonialism ? don't we have a colonialism? don't we have a responsibility to train our own people up and stop stealing people up and stop stealing people from overseas ? yeah, i people from overseas? yeah, i don't think we're— , yeah, i don't think we're stealing bsabis— don't think we're stealing bsabis tiara — don't think we're stealing people from overseas if we allow bsabis— people from overseas if we allow bsabis ta— people from overseas if we allow bsabis ta saws— people from overseas if we allow people to come to— people from overseas if we allow people to come to this country, tbsa— people to come to this country, tbsa tbsy-as — people to come to this country, then they're perfectly entitled to then they're perfectly entitled ta by— then they're perfectly entitled to by definition— then they're perfectly entitled to by definition . to by definition. obviously, it's not ideal for the countries that are draining those people . that are draining those people. but clearly, if you look at the waiting lists on the nhs, 7.3 million is at 7.4 million people waiting for treatment or tests of some sort or another. waiting for treatment or tests of some sort or another . the waiting for treatment or tests of some sort or another. the nhs is not coping now, is it not coping? partly because there are too many people in this country . i don't know. is it not coping
12:16 pm
7 . i don't know. is it not coping ? partly because there aren't enough doctors and nurses? almost certainly , yes. and it's almost certainly, yes. and it's all very well saying we're going to upskill our own workforce . to upskill our own workforce. but that takes time. we're lagging behind. and in the meantime, are dying on meantime, people are dying on waiting we absolutely waiting lists. so we absolutely need do those jobs. need people to do those jobs. there takeaways from there are lots of takeaways from these figures. one important takeaway , i think so much takeaway, i think so much attention is put on the boats, the people coming over from the north of france and so forth, tiny, tiny percentage of the overall immigration figures of the last year are coming over on boats or in other in other ways seeking asylum. so that's a really important takeaway. another very important takeaway i thought was very comical. you showed that clip of robert jenrick . this is a man who is jenrick. this is a man who is telling us that immigration levels are far too high. those are his words , far too high. why are his words, far too high. why is it comical ? because he is is it comical? because he is literally the immigration minister, the conservative ideas have been in power now initially with the lib dems for 13 years. martin you remember when david
12:17 pm
cameron said he was going to get immigration levels down to the tens of thousands, 13 years on its record levels? now, whether you think it's a good thing or a bad thing, that stands bad thing, that it stands at 600,000, is not why people 600,000, that is not why people who voted tory voted tory. well, steven woolfe, i'll bring you back in. i totally agree with you,— back in. i totally agree with yaw, iiattbsw— back in. i totally agree with you, matthew, that- f " i totally agree with you, matthew, that this has been a sat— you, matthew, that this has been a sat at— you, matthew, that this has been a sort of cataclysmic failure to asiiwsa— a sort of cataclysmic failure to asiiwsa aa — a sort of cataclysmic failure to deliver on tory— a sort of cataclysmic failure to deliver on tory pledge in the maaitsstas— deliver on tory pledge in the manifestos all— deliver on tory pledge in the manifestos all the way through tiara— manifestos all the way through tiara seis— manifestos all the way through tiara zeio ta— manifestos all the way through from 2010 to bring numbers down. iastsaai— from 2010 to bring numbers down. iastsaa, siass— from 2010 to bring numbers down. instead, since 2019,— from 2010 to bring numbers down. instead, since 2019, seen instead, since 2019, we've seen assays— instead, since 2019, we've seen a 250% increase— instead, since 2019, we've seen a 250% increase in— instead, since 2019, we've seen a 250% increase in people coming in. bat— a 250% increase in people coming in. was tbsas— a 250% increase in people coming in. and there is— a 250% increase in people coming in. and there is a— a 250% increase in people coming in. and there is a fair point tass— in. and there is a fair point there. wolfie,— in. and there is a fair point there. wolfie, this is not just all there. wolfie, this is not just aii abaat— there. wolfie, this is not just all about the _ there. wolfie, this is not just all about the boats. this is in many— all about the boats. this is in many ways— all about the boats. this is in many ways a— all about the boats. this is in many ways a deliberate state orchestrated _ many ways a deliberate state orchestrated lowering of the bar by tbs— orchestrated lowering of the bar by tbs iaay— orchestrated lowering of the bar by the tory government to fill tabs— by the tory government to fill iabs wbisb— by the tory government to fill jobs which they— by the tory government to fill jobs which they cataclysme have taiisa— jobs which they cataclysme have taiisa at— jobs which they cataclysme have taiisa at a— jobs which they cataclysme have failed at a lack— jobs which they cataclysme have failed at a lack of— jobs which they cataclysme have failed at a lack of planning on training— failed at a lack of planning on training teachers— failed at a lack of planning on training teachers ,_ failed at a lack of planning on training teachers , a lack of training teachers, a lack of banana— training teachers, a lack of biaaaiaa aa— training teachers, a lack of planning on training nurses. the maasy— planning on training nurses. the maasy isa-t— planning on training nurses. the money isn't there— planning on training nurses. the money isn't there ._ planning on training nurses. the money isn't there . so the hiring money isn't there. so the hiring in sbsab— money isn't there. so the hiring in cheap labour— money isn't there. so the hiring in cheap labour from overseas, the in cheap labour from overseas, tbs satis— in cheap labour from overseas, the entire system— in cheap labour from overseas, the entire system ,_ in cheap labour from overseas, the entire system , stephen, is the entire system, stephen, is baatsa— the entire system, stephen, is baatsa. wat— the entire system, stephen, is broken. not just— the entire system, stephen, is broken. not just the illegals samiae— broken. not just the illegals samiag awsa— broken. not just the illegals coming over on— broken. not just the illegals coming over on the dinghies. wait.— coming over on the dinghies. wsii. tbs— coming over on the dinghies. well, the entire— coming over on the dinghies.
12:18 pm
well, the entire system- coming over on the dinghies. well, the entire system is broken and if you look at just some basic figures, this is going back to mr snowden's point about whether we need people to fill the jobs. and it is because we've got a rise in population . we've got a rise in population. our population is now over 69 million. that is 5.2, 3 million more than ten years ago. and yet we're building more housing, 260,000 a year on average . 260,000 a year on average. farage we are told by ofwat that we're 4 billion, 4,000,000,000l of water short every day in relation to a population based on 67 million. we've got infrastructure issues and hospital issues where, as we've been pointed out, there are people not being able to go and that's a direct consequence of the large scale increase in population and that is driven primarily over the past 20 years by immigration , both legal and by immigration, both legal and illegal . and if a country wants illegal. and if a country wants to be able to say, okay, let's fine, let's keep the numbers going, 1 million or 1.1 million
12:19 pm
estimated next year, you've got to have a government that is honest with its public and saying we are going to increase our population to 70 million within the next 2 to 3 years. we're therefore going to have 3 to 600,000 houses being built. you'll see your land being disappeared. you'll see crowded roads, you'll see increased hospitals because that is the direct consequence of an island who's now got density england who's now got density in england bigger anywhere else in bigger than anywhere else in europe. not we're talking the europe. not if we're talking the uk, certainly if we're uk, but certainly if we're talking england. just so people listening, listening on the radio just radio can understand. we just showed radio can understand. we just sbawsalaaabb— radio can understand. we just showedlgraph-of- radio can understand. we just showedlgraph-of the. showed a graph then of the battsaa— showed a graph then of the battsaaltbs— showed a graph then of the pattern the migration figures pattern of the migration figures and pattern of the migration figures aaaliaats— pattern of the migration figures andllooks-the_ pattern of the migration figures and looks the loch ness and it looks like the loch ness iiaastsa— and it looks like the loch ness monster.-basically- and it looks like the loch ness monster. basically got monster. it's basically got a tsw— monster. it's basically got a tsw-aaa— monster. it's basically got a few-and then- monster. it's basically got a few and then woof, monster. it's basically got a- few-and then woof, we've few humps and then woof, we've got few humps and then woof, we've sat-asst— few humps and then woof, we've eat-asst awa— few humps and then woof, we've got-neck and that's- got a big neck and that's saasatiy— got a big neck and that's- currently-christopher, currently where at christopher, i currently where at christopher, i want— currently where at christopher, i waatlsatas— currently where at christopher, i want-come -to- currently where at christopher, i want come to you. i want to come back to you. sbaaia— i want to come back to you. should-attempt- i want to come back to you. should attempt to control any should we attempt to control any of should we attempt to control any at—aas— should we attempt to control any at—aas ws— should we attempt to control any at—aas ws tast- should we attempt to control any of_are we just now. of this then, or are we just now an absa— of this then, or are we just now an open-country?- of this then, or are we just now an open country? for an open borders country? for sxambiss— an open borders country? for example?-look- an open borders country? for example?-look at. an open borders country? for. example?-look at the example? when we look at the awaabs— example? when we look at the awaabs at— example? when we look at the numbers of students coming into the numbers of students coming into tbs w,— numbers of students coming into tbs w, ias— numbers of students coming into the uk, 149 dependent family sbss— the uk, 149 dependent family members are— the uk, 149 dependent family members are coming in as well. was— members are coming in as well. was a— members are coming in as well. was a sa— members are coming in as well. that's a ten fold— members are coming in as well. that's a ten fold increase in tiws— that's a ten fold increase in tiws ysas — that's a ten fold increase in five years. when— that's a ten fold increase in five years. when we look at the awaabs— five years. when we look at the awaabs at— five years. when we look at the

numbers of nigerian students, for numbers of nigerian students, tat sxambis— numbers of nigerian students, tat sxambis ,— numbers of nigerian students, for example , there's almost for example, there's almost baaity. — for example, there's almost baaity. baboo— for example, there's almost parity. 60,000 students plus the same amount of— parity. 60,000 students plus the same amount of family members samiae— same amount of family members samiaa ia— same amount of family members coming in. should— same amount of family members coming in. should we just say, wsib— coming in. should we just say, wet, catas— coming in. should we just say, wet, ta— coming in. should we just say, well, come to britain, whoever you— well, come to britain, whoever yaa as— well, come to britain, whoever yaa at aa— well, come to britain, whoever yaa at aa ws— well, come to britain, whoever you are, or do we need some form of you are, or do we need some form at saataais— you are, or do we need some form of control? christopher well, we do of control? christopher well, we aa assa— of control? christopher well, we aa assa a— of control? christopher well, we do need a formal— of control? christopher well, we do need a formal control. �*vw�*iz; cit» do need a formal control. we do bays— do need a formal control. we do bays a— do need a formal control. we do bays a taaaaai— do need a formal control. we do have a formal control. and i think probably the government might be doing the right thing in clamping down on the dependence of students . it does dependence of students. it does seem a suspiciously high number of are moving to the of people are moving to the country permanently on the basis that they in some way that they are in some way related to of the many, many related to one of the many, many students coming in here. it should with regards to should be said with regards to students, they do bring billions of the country and of pounds into the country and most again. so most of them leave again. so it's bit misleading. it's a little bit misleading. actually. the last couple of years figures on this because the of students coming in the number of students coming in increased the increased enormously after the lockdowns they lockdowns finished and they stayed 2 or 3 three stayed for 2 or 3 years, three years usually. then they years usually. and then they leave in last leave and even in the last quarter last year, we saw quarter of last year, we saw more leaving than more students leaving than arriving. i don't think we arriving. but i don't think we should be concerned about students. they're students. as i say, they're bringing they students. as i say, they're bringi and they
12:21 pm

12:25 pm
workers here, we've only gone up 2 million in in the last 13 years of the amount of needing work in terms of the increase of those people working. yet we've had 5 million coming across the country . so we've had 3 million country. so we've had 3 million excess than necessary to do work. but the government's failed . and as for keir starmer, failed. and as for keir starmer, look, the labour party will be much worse. we know that because if you look historically , if you look historically, particularly around 2000, 2001 and 2002, the largest scale immigration that came from asylum was under the labour party. the conservative, the labour party have said that they would open the doors once more with negotiations with the european union and we've had 7.1 million eu settlement visits visas since brexit. so i think we'll see huge numbers come and they won't control the asylum issue either. so it will be effectively huge numbers coming under the labour and the conservative party. neither of them will make any dent into it at all. okay, gentlemen, that's bssa— at all. okay, gentlemen, that's bssa a— at all. okay, gentlemen, that's bssa a way— at all. okay, gentlemen, that's been a very civilised- okay, gentlemen, that's been a very civilised debate. that— been a very civilised debate. ibaat yaw—

12:27 pm
we've got the risk of the cloud pushing in from the pushing its way in from the nonh pushing its way in from the north as well. perhaps north sea as well. perhaps turning across some turning murky across some coastal of a coastal areas here. a bit of a cool night, particularly across sheltered of scotland sheltered areas of scotland where a touch frost is where a touch of frost is possible. where you see the possible. but where you see the clear overnight, clear spells overnight, that does we'll start off does mean that we'll start off sunday some bright sunday with some bright sunshine. probably to be a sunshine. probably going to be a cloudier day, though, for certainly eastern central certainly eastern and central areas england this cloud areas of england as this cloud continues push its way continues to push its way in from some hazy from the north sea. some hazy sunshine across areas of scotland, but northern ireland, wales down into southwest england, amount of england, seeing a good amount of prolonged intervals. it's prolonged sunny intervals. it's going be south—west going to be the south—west again, temperatures are again, where temperatures are the around 20 the highest, perhaps around 20 to but behind that cold to 23 c. but behind that cold front now we'll start to see some colder air digging in. so on sunday itself, around mid—teens for scotland, northern ireland, but overnight with the light winds and the clear spells, that is going to mean that turn into another chilly that we turn into another chilly one. and again, some rural frost is in the far south, is possible in the far south, though, the breeze is going to start we head into start increasing as we head into bank holiday monday that bank holiday monday and that will feeding in some will start feeding in some cooler air off from the north
12:28 pm
sea. central eastern areas of sea. so central eastern areas of england will have a bit of a cooler monday compared to sunday. whilst pressure sunday. and whilst high pressure is with us throughout is staying with us throughout the well, the forthcoming week as well, we're continue see we're going to continue to see this breeze pushing its this easterly breeze pushing its way so generally eastern way in. so generally eastern areas staying on the slightly cooler side and western areas faring best for those temperatures, but they'll still be of sunshine be a fair amount of sunshine around enjoy

1:11 pm
feel that democracy is under threat by the public order act, which is designed to kerb some of the most disruptive protests . so a few of the specific tactics that the public order act outlaws is slow, slow walking protests where protesters take to the street in march down the road at a very, very slow pace, meaning that cars have to stop disrupting everyday life, that locking on where protesters glue themselves to each other or to a railings or to a building that has now been outlawed. and the public order act and this is the thing which they object to most. the pubuc which they object to most. the public order act gives police the power to intervene in a protest which is being planned before it actually takes place . before it actually takes place. and it was under that measure that some protesters were arrested at the coronation. they were later released and the police apologised, but that is what this group here feels is threatening their democracy , threatening their democracy, threatening their democracy, threatening their democracy, threatening their voice. and i've noticed there's a big group behind me who are making a paper

1:16 pm
forward right now. so as the pnces forward right now. so as the prices come down, so they are going to be baked for in much longer than has been , you know, longer than has been, you know, for sorry, for much longer than just the summer. so it'll go through the winter. and i suspect that by the time we get to this time next year, we will increase hinckley be in a more stable place anyway. but in amongst this does, you know , amongst this does, you know, have there is also the point that we will continue to be paying that we will continue to be paying more than before the pandemic and before the war and there's very little i can see that will make us get down below about £2,000 of that annual bill because there's so much else that's on the bill that is just gas and electricity. there's all the costs of the net zero. there's the transmission and so on. those costs are significant. so yes, good news that it's coming down. good for news stability, but don't look for something like 1200. just be

1:18 pm
of this has to do with the timing. you know, when did you actually lock into those prices? just as angela was saying. and also, of course , whether you're also, of course, whether you're trying to get over all the other costs that you were experienced doing over this period. so, for example , if you look at the example, if you look at the ofgem issue and what's happening to those prices, what as angela is saying, we're already paying still standing which still standing charges, which are high, but we're also are very high, but we're also paying are very high, but we're also paying for the failed energy suppliers . so those energy suppliers. so those energy suppliers. so those energy suppliers who went and got bought with encouragement from the government by other firms or even merged with them , they have even merged with them, they have a cost, of course , for all of us a cost, of course, for all of us because they had all these clients that their customers that they were still having to service. but of course having huge losses. those losses we are paying huge losses. those losses we are paying for and also ofgem has allowed an increase in the profit margin that suppliers can make. so when you look at the formula that's been developed now, this is one of the reasons why we're quite unlikely to see
1:19 pm
much of a drop. they don't want any more of those firms to go bust. and just a final thing on on you mentioned jeremy on this. you mentioned jeremy hunt beginning how he hunt at the beginning and how he welcomed hunt welcomed this. jeremy hunt is also to have welcomed also reported to have welcomed the interest rate increase that we've and possibly we've just seen and possibly hinting that that a further hinting with that that a further interest increase. so you interest rate increase. so you give to customers on give something to customers on one side and you take it away from households on another. so there inconsistency there is huge inconsistency in government policy right now in all bills that households all the bills that households have to face. yeah, i think tbat-s— have to face. yeah, i think was a— have to face. yeah, i think that's a fair— have to face. yeah, i think that's a fair point.- i yeah, i think that's a fair point. there's a bat— that's a fair point. there's a bat at— that's a fair point. there's a bat at bsabis— that's a fair point. there's a lot of people out- that's a fair point. there's a lot of people out there would tits— lot of people out there would iits ta — lot of people out there would iits ta ta — lot of people out there would like to do something with their sissttisity— like to do something with their electricity and. _ like to do something with their electricity and. jeremy hunt i aietsss.— electricity and. jeremy hunt i aietsss.-i- electricity and. jeremy hunt i digress.-i want- electricity and. jeremy hunt i digress. -i want to. electricity and. jeremy hunt i digress. i want to bring digress. malcolm i want to bring you digress. malcolm i want to bring yaa ia— digress. malcolm i want to bring yaa ia aaw— digress. malcolm i want to bring yaa ia .— digress. malcolm i want to bring yaa ia . a— digress. malcolm i want to bring you in now , a research senior you in now, a research senior research—centrej research fellow at the centre for research fellow at the centre tat tastey— research fellow at the centre for energy policy— research fellow at the centre for energy policy and technology . saa— for energy policy and technology . caa ws— for energy policy and technology . caa ws rast— for energy policy and technology . can we just admit that a lack of . can we just admit that a lack at tatwaa— . can we just admit that a lack of forward planning a huge asbsaasasy— of forward planning a huge dependency on— of forward planning a huge dependency on imports , ation of dependency on imports, ation of gas dependency on imports, ation of eas at— dependency on imports, ation of gas of liquefied— dependency on imports, ation of gas of liquefied propane from attstisa— gas of liquefied propane from attstisa aaa— gas of liquefied propane from america and even of coal to keep our power stations— america and even of coal to keep our power stations going ? that's our power stations going? that's bssa— our power stations going? that's bssa tbs— our power stations going? that's bssa tbs aaat— our power stations going? that's been the root cause of this. we aaa-t— been the root cause of this. we aaa-t bays— been the root cause of this. we aaa-t bays a— been the root cause of this. we don't have a sensible energy baiisy— don't have a sensible energy baiisy .— don't have a sensible energy baiisy . ws— don't have a sensible energy policy . we don't— don't have a sensible energy policy . we don't have a nuclear

1:21 pm
can sort of see why government finds this difficult. the investments in energy often have investments in energy often have investment horizons of many decades. investment horizons of many decades . if you're investment horizons of many decades. if you're going to build a nuclear station or a tidal dam or whatever , or even a tidal dam or whatever, or even a new serious gas pipeline , you're new serious gas pipeline, you're not starting to get the benefit of this for five, ten years into the future , by which time the future, by which time chances are you've been voted out of office or have moved on and you don't get the benefits. and there's always this tension between putting money into the long term infrastructure , long term infrastructure, competing with money in, say , competing with money in, say, health care or something where you can get the immediate benefits . so you can understand benefits. so you can understand why governments have done this, but nonetheless , i do think it's but nonetheless, i do think it's very unfortunate the government , after government failed to , after government has failed to take a longer term view and recognise that energy is so important to our to our economy that just leaving it to the to the short term whims of individual companies is probably going to get you into trouble . going to get you into trouble. can i bring you back in here,

1:23 pm
have it much cheaper than, say, from one of the big boys, but they were buying on the short term. so as soon as the short term. so as soon as the short term market went wrong, they went bust. everybody who was their had go their customer then had to go somewhere vicky somewhere else. and as vicky has. vicky price has said all that mess in the market has been had to be picked up and the cost of that is sitting on our bills . what you can see, though, having said that, i don't think there's much that the switching is going to be back like it was before. and i doubt at the moment there'll be much of it. what there will be is there'll be different choices of tariffs offered by the different companies and at long last the regulator has come in and said suppliers have got to be properly capitalised and they've got to operate in a much less sort of wild west way than so many of those small suppliers were doing in the past. so there is some hope there. but at the same time , i think we have to same time, i think we have to get used to the fact that unless we have some form of radical
1:24 pm

. and that needs to be carefully thought through. it takes time and expertise , and i wouldn't and expertise, and i wouldn't want this pushed out in a rushed way to parts of the system that don't have the time and don't have the capacity to the experience to deal with this . experience to deal with this. dr. shields, another story tbat-s— dr. shields, another story that's caught— dr. shields, another story that's caught your eye today was on that's caught your eye today was at sty— that's caught your eye today was at sky asws— that's caught your eye today was on sky news, and— that's caught your eye today was on sky news, and that is gps wiii— on sky news, and that is gps wiii baws— on sky news, and that is gps wiii baws ta— on sky news, and that is gps will have to give— on sky news, and that is gps will have to give patients abtiaas— will have to give patients abtiaas ta— will have to give patients options to travel further or go btiwats— options to travel further or go btiwats ta — options to travel further or go private to tackle— options to travel further or go private to tackle nhs backlogs btistiy— private to tackle nhs backlogs briefly. what's— private to tackle nhs backlogs briefly. what's your take on tbas— briefly. what's your take on was — briefly. what's your take on that? well,— briefly. what's your take on that? well, again,- briefly. what's your take on that? lattice 5g?

2:17 pm
is what's really to blame for this ? michael yes. well what's this? michael yes. well what's been interesting in the past is that some of the polling on those day to day issues has been pretty unfavourable towards the snp. so pretty unfavourable towards the snp . so even when the snp were snp. so even when the snp were aaiae— snp. so even when the snp were aaiae wsii— snp. so even when the snp were aaiae wsii at— 53k 37�* so even when the snp were doing well at elections, they attsa— doing well at elections, they were often scoring badly. when bsabis— were often scoring badly. when bsabis sws— were often scoring badly. when people were asked about how tbiaes— people were asked about how tbiaes as— people were asked about how things are being— people were asked about how things are being run in terms of bsaitb— things are being run in terms of health, education— things are being run in terms of health, education and the ssy— health, education and the ssy . iis— health, education and the economy . me and the health, education and the economy. me and the snp seem to be economy. me and the snp seem to bs wsty— economy. me and the snp seem to bs wsty eaaa— economy. me and the snp seem to be very good despite— economy. me and the snp seem to be very good despite the bad bstssbtiaas— be very good despite the bad perceptions of— be very good despite the bad perceptions of these day to day at— perceptions of these day to day issues of getting— perceptions of these day to day issues of getting the result wbsa— issues of getting the result wbsa it— issues of getting the result when it came— issues of getting the result when it came to election day. bwt— when it came to election day. bwt tbs— when it came to election day. bwt tbs twa— when it came to election day. but the two issues that you tasatiaasa— but the two issues that you mentioned certainly are two tbat— mentioned certainly are two issues that are— mentioned certainly are two issues that are that are leading tbis— issues that are that are leading tbis assiias— issues that are that are leading this decline in— issues that are that are leading this decline in the— issues that are that are leading this decline in the snp vote at the this decline in the snp vote at tbs ttattsat— this decline in the snp vote at the moment. the— this decline in the snp vote at the moment. the gender reforms btstty— the moment. the gender reforms were pretty controversial and the were pretty controversial and tbs baiiss— were pretty controversial and the police investigations , the police investigations, tbiaes— the police investigations, tbiaes tits— the police investigations, things like nicola sturgeon's baass— things like nicola sturgeon's bawss bsiae— things like nicola sturgeon's house being raided as part of tbat— house being raided as part of that investigation of course has bas— that investigation of course has bas aa— that investigation of course has bas aa itabast.— that investigation of course has has an impact. there's other baiisy— has an impact. there's other baiisy issss— has an impact. there's other policy issues that are causing

2:20 pm
are taking people for granted and think that they just and they think that they just have to say the economy's fine, they just have to say the education is fine and people will they're will believe them. they're not giving credit for the, giving people credit for the, you know, their own experiences . and i hear the snp at westminster week in week out talking about this scotland which is being so much better run by the rest of the uk and that's not my lived experience and i know that it's not most scots lived experience and i think that is what we are beginning to see coming through now and the snp will pay now and what the snp will pay for at the general for at the next general election, which is their complacency and their their lack of attention to what the public have been telling them and simple taking their own voters for granted . yeah, okay. it's for granted. yeah, okay. it's ittbattaat— for granted. yeah, okay. it's itabattaat ta— 3: yeah, okay. it's important to remember, of course, that— important to remember, of course, that this will still tbs— course, that this will still mean the snp- course, that this will still mean the snp are the largest party _ mean the snp are the largest batty. ibsy-ts— mean the snp are the largest party. they're going to party. they're just going to tats— party. they're just going to tats-at— party. they're just going to tats-at a— party. they're just going to take of a momentary take a bit of a momentary battstiae— take a bit of a momentary battering. returning battering. michael, returning to you battering. michael, returning to yawltbsts-s— battering. michael, returning to youithere's been— battering. michael, returning to you there's been a lot of talk you, there's been a lot of talk abaat— you, there's been a lot of talk abawt tbs— you, there's been a lot of talk about the snp's— you, there's been a lot of talk about the snp's situation in ssttiae— about the snp's situation in ssttiae bast— about the snp's situation in setting back the dream of independence.— setting back the dream of independence. we talked earlier on independence. we talked earlier

2:22 pm
the greens, like alba and then we'll maybe see on the pro—india side what we've seen for years with the pro—union side where the vote fractures and that that means that it doesn't result in one party doing as well . but means that it doesn't result in one party doing as well. but i don't really suspect that humza yousaf is going to genuinely push the case for actually holding a referendum that hard. at the moment, because clearly there's no mass push for it among the scottish public. so if the snp really stepped things up in terms for of demanding a referendum, i think that would be slightly dangerous for them . be slightly dangerous for them. however, they're certainly going to talk about independence and humza yousaf talked about a summer of campaigning on independence. so i think there are going to be pushing the case for it. a lot, but not really expecting a vote anytime soon. ineed expecting a vote anytime soon. i need to bring christine back in i need to bring christine back it tbss— i need to bring christine back in there. christine has been a lot in there. christine has been a bat-tatt— in there. christine has been a lot-talk this— in there. christine has been a lot-talk this side- in there. christine has been a lot talk this side of the lot of talk this side of the batisw— lot of talk this side of the border about— lot of talk this side of the border about ed davey forming saws-at— border about ed davey forming saws-at bast— border about ed davey forming some of pact with keir some sort of pact with keir

2:25 pm
and everything being, you know, just speak with one voice and the discipline of the snp over the discipline of the snp over the past ten, 15 years has been unbreakable. the discipline has been, you know, par excellence . been, you know, par excellence. now it's falling apart and we can see the divisions in westminster, we can see the arguments that that are happening amongst the mps. and it's obvious that holyrood, as well. so i think what you've got is a party that's been in power a long time and now doesn't quite know where it's going or where it stands. and those divisions are going to get worse as it goes forward. and i think that the you know, when this, you know, the dust all settles on the next election, the next general election, and then the next scottish elections, i think we'll see a very different pallor in scotland politics. we've seen it in the council elections last year that the other parties had massive gains. and i think it will change and i don't think it's a blip. i think the snp have got some serious
