for the whatsapps and stuff like that. well, now the government has launched a legal challenge against the inquiry that it set up. basically saying it's stepping over a line requesting pretty much everything . regret pretty much everything. regret is the word that the government are using. other people say desperate action is a more accurate word . what do you say accurate word. what do you say we will have all the latest on that and i confess it's quite rare . you'll hear me quoting rare. you'll hear me quoting greek philosopher , but aristotle

surely you would have defined right. this is right. this is what's in this is what's scope what's out of scope before you've kicked off. so the you've kicked it all off. so the fact that now you've started, you've got the ball rolling a little bit and now you're going, whoa, you know, whoa, whoa, whoa, you know, that's bit of that's a little bit out of scope. not happy this. scope. i'm not happy with this. it seems a little bit schoolboy error to me and i don't have a huge of faith. actually huge amount of faith. actually this at already this is where we're at already at stage. i'm not sure that at this stage. i'm not sure that i this process. what do i trust this process. what do you it all? well i think you make it all? well i think the idea of trusting process, given what we've been through over or 5 years, is over the last 4 or 5 years, is probably a in itself. i probably a joke in itself. i mean, every single process that tnto— this government has been noted— this government has been involved in— this government has been involved in has- this government has been involved in has gone which way? nest— involved in has gone which way? nest so— involved in has gone which way? nest so .— involved in has gone which way? west so i think— involved in has gone which way? west so i think fact this is west so i think the fact this is aneottonatte— west so i think the fact this is questionable all— west so i think the fact this is questionable all and there's tntndo— questionable all and there's tntndo tetnd— questionable all and there's things being the whatsapp, things being on the whatsapp, you things being on the whatsapp, yon—at- things being on the whatsapp, yon—at to| you know, we're looking at is nnatonpn— you know, we're looking at is dynamite-.- you know, we're looking at is nnatonpn-. tnel you know, we're looking at is whatsapp-. the is whatsapp messages. the fact is we whatsapp messages. the fact is neoan— nttn- whatsapp messages. the fact is we_saw with our. whatsapp messages. the fact is. we_saw with our own we saw what we saw with our own eyeo. — we saw what we saw with our own eyeo. ihedrd — we saw what we saw with our own eyeo. ihedrd -ne - we saw what we saw with our own eyes. - heard -we heard - eyes. we heard what we heard nttn— eyes. we heard what we heard nttn on— eyes. we heard what we heard nttn nn— eyes. we heard what we heard with our own ears— eyes. we heard what we heard with our own ears that covid ttaoco— with our own ears that covid ttaoco nao— with our own ears that covid fiasco was was— with our own ears that covid fiasco was was managed dtoaotnonoty— fiasco was was managed disastrously by the government non— disastrously by the government non day— disastrously by the government non day one— disastrously by the government non day .— disastrously by the government from day one. i would imagine tnene-tt— from day one. i would imagine tnene-tt te— from day one. i would imagine there'll be messages there with very— there'll be messages there with some very pertinent things said about— some very pertinent things said about pecpte— some very pertinent things said about people like— some very pertinent things said about people like matt hancock, for about people like matt hancock, ton notace— about people like matt hancock, for instance, and— about people like matt hancock, for instance, and his handling of for instance, and his handling ot—secnetany- for instance, and his handling of_secretary role.

6:14 pm
they're doing of an evening. if it's not related to the process of lockdown policy or the pandemic. i mean, i'm as interested in i think, to the press. and then that would be interested in i think, to the press. thed then that would be interested in i think, to the press. the circus that would be interested in i think, to the press. the circus would ould be interested in i think, to the press. the circus would begin; where the circus would begin. nett— where the circus would begin. nett, pennapo. — where the circus would begin. well, perhaps. �*" well, perhaps. but but if this is if the inquiry is serious, it will focus on the things that are serious. and if, you know, if those kind of serious conversations were being had in a informal, unprofessional a very informal, unprofessional , unguarded way on whatsapp , , unguarded way on whatsapp, then, you know, it sucks to be then, you know, it sucks to be the politicians that were doing that. their fault. but, that. that's their fault. but, you know, this point, whether you know, at this point, whether it's the hancock it's from the matt hancock whatsapp links anything else, whatsapp links or anything else, i'm mind we should i'm of a mind that we should force whole lot to be made force the whole lot to be made publicly available every inch of it and that we can decide what's important and what's not. because gary raised the you know, the question of trust . and know, the question of trust. and i think from the get go, not many of us had much trust. you know, definitely in the government. inquiry government. but in this inquiry itself, the main itself, because the main questions about, you know, the things that you've on things that you've covered on this things that gb this show, the things that gb news might interested news viewers might be interested in, whether not lockdown
6:15 pm
in, like whether or not lockdown policy worked, did more harm policy is worked, did more harm than latter stages. than good in the latter stages. what the actual of what were the actual details of the which elderly people the way in which elderly people were discussed and policy were discussed and that policy was discussed? what kind of whether they the proper whether they did the proper weighing between the harms of weighing up between the harms of closing down society from kids to sociability to the economy and everything else with the you know, the science that they were being told there was a real use and abuse of science. and i feel very sorry for a lot of the scientists that had to work with politicians across the pandemic. none of that is probably going to great scrutiny that to get the great scrutiny that it needs most. kind of it needs it most. it kind of seems still boil to down who seems to still boil to down who is it, a party? did they cake, blah, blah, blah? and i think for of that's not the for most of us, that's not the important that mattered to important thing that mattered to our lives in that in that those dystopian for 3 or 4 or five years, i saw a suggestion today. olivia when i first saw it, i ttonett— olivia when i first saw it, i tncndnt, n0,— olivia when i first saw it, i thought, no, that's a bit ridiculous.— thought, no, that's a bit ridiculous. then i thought ridiculous. and then i thought about— ridiculous. and then i thought atontla— ridiculous. and then i thought about.a.more- ridiculous. and then i thought about a more and about it a bit more and i tnondnt— about it a bit more and i thought actually it could be done— thought actually it could be quite sensible.— thought actually it could be quite sensible. well, it was a onddeotton— quite sensible. well, it was a suggestion made that actually nont— suggestion made that actually ttont—nnttl suggestion made that actuallyi ttont—nntt tne

21st, more 21st, rather than more fundamental what fundamental questions about what were risks, what were the were the risks, what were the risks to cancer patients, for example, diagnosed example, who weren't diagnosed early of lockdowns? all early because of lockdowns? all of wider questions about of these wider questions about whether these draconian lockdowns, draconian lockdowns, repeated, draconian lockdowns, repeated, draconian lockdowns, were the right response at all. they don't seem to feature in the framework. so thatis to feature in the framework. so that is what many conservative mps feel and probably what quite a few people in the country feel too. so i can see the logic to that argument politically, it would be impossible already there are claims that there's a cover up simply because rishi sunak for whatever reason, doesn't to hand over all doesn't want to hand over all these unredacted whatsapp messages. decides throw messages. if he decides to throw the altogether, the inquiry out altogether, there would be uproar and it would into labour's hands. would play into labour's hands. you going to throw it you know, i'm going to throw it open— you know, i'm going to throw it open to— you know, i'm going to throw it open to yon.— you know, i'm going to throw it open to you. would you get tnnotned— open to you. would you get involved in— open to you. would you get involved in politics in this conntnye— involved in politics in this country? because it seems that actnatty—yon- country? because it seems that actnatty—yonldet actually the second you do get tnto— actually the second you do get tnto-otnce,— actually the second you do get into-office, any- actually the second you do get into office, any notion into public office, any notion of into public office, any notion ot-done,- into public office, any notion of-gone, whether. into public office, any notion of gone, whether it's of privacy is gone, whether it's ntnnte— of privacy is gone, whether it's one minute people of privacy is gone, whether it's- one minute people _that one minute people demanded that you one minute people demanded that yon-onen— one minute people demanded that yon-cnen yon— one minute people demanded that yon-cnen yon tax— one minute people demanded that you over your tax returns, you turn over your tax returns, nnetnen— whether it's the next minute yoe— whether it's the next minute you've-inquiries- whether it's the next minute you've inquiries this, you've got inquiries into this, tnat— you've got inquiries into this, tnat and— you've got inquiries into this, tnat and tne— you've got inquiries into this, that and the other. you've got you've got inquiries into this, th.throw the other. you've got you've got inquiries into this, th.throw opentther. you've got you've got inquiries into this, th.throw open all r. you've got you've got inquiries into this, th.throw open all of’ou've got you've got inquiries into this, th.throw open all of your; got to throw open all of your nnatoappo— to throw open all of your whatsapps irrespective of nnetnen—

most. many poor most. there's so many poor people you you people now. you know, you go into the toughest estates in inner cities. as i said to you earlier, we were in earlier, we were we were up in hull our hope hull during one of our hope hacks.i hull during one of our hope hacks. i run the hope collective, which do hope hacks 120 from hull in 120 young people from hull in a local theatre. and these are kids coming from some of the toughest, affected toughest, most poverty affected areas in the in hull. and, areas in in the in hull. and, you know, some of the stories they're the they're telling about the hardships they're telling about the hardsithrough. so i think we're going through. so i think we're in we're in a greed in we're in a cost of greed crisis. we need to at that. crisis. we need to look at that. we need to think about the behaviour governments. we behaviour of governments. we talk behaviour of talk about the behaviour of citizens when i've never known i'm 63 old, be 64 i'm 63 years old, i'll be 64 this known this year. i've never known a time the government and the time when the government and the whole political estate was so fraught behaviour fraught with bad behaviour and it's it's norm. so now it's like it's norm. so now we're fingers at we're wagging our fingers at kids, our fingers we're wagging our fingers at kiipeople. our fingers we're wagging our fingers at kiipeople. it's our fingers we're wagging our fingers at kiipeople. it's top our fingers we're wagging our fingers at kiipeople. it's top down, ingers we're wagging our fingers at kiipeople. it's top down, toptrs at people. it's top down, top down culture. culture normally is do you think? well, to is what do you think? well, to a very inaccurately— ctzt “
6:27 pm
always in circumstances of their own choosing. ' t: own choosing. and i think the you know, the question really here is whether or not people have agency and the decisions they make . and i think there is they make. and i think there is a bit of a problem in the way that some of my comrades on the left, you know, talk about working class poverty and crime in that there is this kind of very patronising approach to people which says we will excuse your bad behaviour. people which says we will excuse your bad behaviour . yeah. or your bad behaviour. yeah. or youn your bad behaviour. yeah. or your, you know, your actions . your, you know, your actions. and there's obviously a question of whether a lot of crime is actually immoral. i think can actually immoral. i think we can make distinction between , you make a distinction between, you know, a for know, someone robbing a bike for a jolly someone robbing a jolly with someone robbing dinner for their kids. you know, there are shades of there are there are shades of grey in all of this. but you know, there is kind desire know, there is a kind of desire to forgive by saying you to forgive that by saying you couldn't really help it because all that, you know, you were just driven by poverty. and we know that make decisions know that people make decisions in bad all the time. you in good or bad all the time. you know, gary's also said that obviously a lot of the kind of criminality i might be criminality that i might be interested in also takes place interested in also takes place in rich households. you in very rich households. you know, it's not say know, it's not to say that simply having means that simply having money means that
6:28 pm
you virtuous person. in you become a virtuous person. in fact, the time, quite fact, a lot of the time, quite the opposite. but i suppose in relation you know, there's relation to, you know, there's some stories milling around this week about, for example, mass taking stuff off the shelves and putting them back behind closed doors so people won't nick doors so that people won't nick them. is you know, there them. this is you know, there has issue for a while. has been an issue for a while. we were talking about this before we came that, you before we came on that, you know, example, baby formula before we came on that, you knotbeen example, baby formula before we came on that, you knotbeen securityt, baby formula before we came on that, you knotbeen security taggedformula before we came on that, you knotbeen security tagged fornula before we came on that, you knotbeen security tagged for asa has been security tagged for as long as i can remember. and, you know, things like cheese know, even things like cheese have tagged in have been security tagged in shops. there is, think, shops. and so there is, i think, an question to ask. an interesting question to ask. is the fact that people can't is it the fact that people can't afford that is a afford things? and that is a question i think most question that i think most people should interested in. people should be interested in. with of living crisis with the cost of living crisis and that or is and food banks, are that or is there something else going on with breakdown of the with a kind of breakdown of the social contract in that you know, i think i'm from a working social contract in that you know,family( i'm from a working social contract in that you know,family and from a working social contract in that you know,family and irom a working social contract in that you know,family and i think working social contract in that you know,family and i think iivorking social contract in that you know,family and i think i was ng class family and i think i was always up to understand always brought up to understand that stealing wrong, not that stealing was wrong, not just but because, you just immorally, but because, you know, was would be bad for know, it was it would be bad for you you got caught. and you if you got caught. and i think thing that worries me think the thing that worries me most is that there are lots of young people out there now who

6:31 pm
breakdown in in working class politics and people being engaged . you know, i engaged in society. you know, i think mostly because there's nothing to engage people and politics pretty dire at the politics is pretty dire at the moment, but it means that stuff starts to break down the way people understand their life starts to break down. people starts to break down. people start lose but start to not just lose hope, but start to not just lose hope, but start to not just lose hope, but start to stop kind of caring. i think. and i think that does then a space where then open up a space where people do things that they wouldn't normally done. and wouldn't have normally done. and now sounding like kind now i'm sounding like i'm kind of izing or patronising of apology izing or patronising people, have to ask people, but you do have to ask the why is it if there the question, why is it if there is higher levels of criminality motty, it that that's motty, why is it that that's going just because going on? it's not just because there's suddenly a huge more amounts of poverty, because as you said, michelle, all that has always been or for a long time been a feature of the british political landscape. but what is the thing that's on? the new thing that's going on? i think i respect i a bit think and i respect i know a bit about the work that you do, and i hugely respect the work that you especially engaging you do, especially engaging people are would people that are what i would call the wrong side call often on the wrong side of the tracks for various reasons. i've got a huge amount of neonect— i've got a huge amount of respect-but- i've got a huge amount of respect-but i- i've got a huge amount of respect-but i do. respect for you, but i do

6:43 pm
from this, you know, group of people who've applied? you know, it really it was really it was really it was really instrumental. it was really cynical. and i think that that tells you a lot about the way in which these diversity drives take place, that it's not actually about any kind of sense that a woman would bring anything different to the role of a pilot than a man would. but it's just about saying it looks better if we have some skirt in there. and it really as there. and it really is as insulting think insulting as that. i think particularly for the women who would those roles if would be put in those roles if they knew that they were only being hired ahead of male colleague because of the fact that they were a woman. that is the kind of sexism, you know, in waiting that there is some kind of difference between the two of us our skill level or us in our skill level or something that should be consigned to history. we surely don't anymore, do we? don't think that anymore, do we? do you think that do you sit rlroro— do you think that do you sit there-think,— do you think that do you sit there think, actually what there and think, actually what you— there and think, actually what you-ls— there and think, actually what you-ls o— there and think, actually what you-is a woman- there and think, actually what you is a woman in this job you need is a woman in this job urol— you need is a woman in this job rlror lop— you need is a woman in this job rlror job or— you need is a woman in this job that job or whatever? i'm i'm rm— that job or whatever? i'm i'm l'mlbig— that job or whatever? i'm i'm l'mlbig rou— that job or whatever? i'm i'm i'm big fan of diversity. and i'm a big fan of diversity. and i'm a big fan of diversity. and i think diversity is very important. i think

important. but i think this is a joke subject. i mean, quite frankly, who would want get frankly, who would want to get in right about in a fighter plane right about now we're prodding the bear now when we're prodding the bear with a a big stick and the with a with a big stick and the world is completely out of kilter, see too many kilter, i don't see too many people queuing up to be pilots right it does right about now. but it does seem a crazy one. diversity seem like a crazy one. diversity in its place is absolutely right. when it's it's not right. when it's not it's not clearly it isn't here. what's right. when it's not it's not cleplace? sn't here. what's right. when it's not it's not cleplace? it's here. what's right. when it's not it's not cleplace? it's placesa/hat's right. when it's not it's not cleplace? it's places make you its place? it's places make you know, comes to down fairness. know, it comes to down fairness. again, making again, it comes down to making sure we can a balanced sure that we can have a balanced society. you know, unfortunately. well, means unfortunately. well, it means institutional a real, institutional racism is a real, real government might institutional racism is a real, real to government might institutional racism is a real, realto retract government might institutional racism is a real, real to retract that. zrnment might institutional racism is a real, realto retract that. and ent might institutional racism is a real, realto retract that. and playiight like to retract that. and play around reports as to around with race reports as to what did, rewrote it. once what they did, rewrote it. once he got to number 10 downing street. authors got the street. so the authors got the blame for saying that institutional racism didn't belong in the uk when actually that said that wasn't what they said at all. it wasn't issue. so i all. it wasn't an issue. so i think counters institutional think it counters institutional racism. um, you talked about young people getting jobs earlier. over, you earlier. it crosses over, you know, young people with certain surnames for surnames that make, for instance, sound african might find getting find themselves not getting put together short list. it together on a short list. it happens real you've together on a short list. iti happens-real you've hit together on a short list. it- happens-real you've hit on happens you real you've hit on a rosoluorlug— happens you real you've hit on a fascinating point— happens you real you've hit on a fascinating point there. and i worr— fascinating point there. and i your-ro— fascinating point there. and i your-lo ll.- fascinating point there. and i want-to it. he's- want to return to it. he's suylug— want to return to it. he's soylup sory— want to return to it. he's saving gary is- want to return to it. he's saying gary is saying, yes,
