departments have to make cuts elsewhere to fund higher pay rises for public sector workers? well president zelenskyy has expressed his gratitude for what we've done on a number of occasions, and not least in his incredibly moving address that he made to parliament earlier this year. >> and he's done so again to me as he has done countless times when i've met him . so i know he when i've met him. so i know he and his people are incredibly grateful for the support the uk has shown, the welcome that we've provided to many ukrainian families, also the families, but also the leadership shown leadership that we've shown throughout this conflict. as i mentioned, often being the first to move support forward, whether it was with the provision of tanks or indeed long—range weapons. and as i say, he's enormously grateful for that . enormously grateful for that. but people across ukraine are also fighting for their lives and freedom every single day , and freedom every single day, and freedom every single day, and they're paying a terrible price for it. so i completely understand. vlad himars desire to do everything he can to protect his people to and stop this war. and we will continue to give him the support that he

needs with regard to public sector pay. you know, i said no . what i've said previously is that we'll be guided by a couple of principles. the first is fairness. fairness for our pubuc fairness. fairness for our public sector workers, because we want to make sure that they're rewarded for they're rewarded fairly for their work, also their hard work, but also fairness for tax payers who ultimately to foot the ultimately have to foot the bill for rises and the other for pay rises and the other thing we'll be guided by is responsibility. i think everyone knows the economic context that we're we make we're in, and we need to make sure that government decisions, particularly when it comes to not , are made not borrowing more, are made responsibly don't responsibly so that we don't fuel it worse, fuel inflation, make it worse, or last for longer. so those are the things that we'll be guided by fairness and responsibility . by fairness and responsibility. can i turn to next sky news? thank you . thank you. >> thank you. just quickly , >> thank you. just quickly, following up on ben wallace's remarks, he also likened nato allies to being like amazon giving delivery of weapons , giving delivery of weapons, weapons and protections for the ukrainians. are you worried that that might offend president zelenskyy who you have a good

relationship with? and just following up on president zelenskyy in your talks today, you talked clearly about full nato membership in the future . nato membership in the future. once this war is over. do you think that accession will happen quickly in the way the sort of time line that it did with finland and now sweden? so how quickly do you see that membership happening? and you've had a very successful summit, but back home, it's tough. you're 20 plus points behind in the polls. you could face three by—election defeats next week and all of your five pledges are in doubt. now you're a prime minister who doesn't like to promise what he cannot deliver for. are you beginning to worry that you have over promised domestic policy and that you could be punished at the ballot box not just next week, but in a general election too? thank you. so with regard to nato membership , actually, i think membership, actually, i think this summit has been, as i said,

a very important moment because you had the alliance affirming unequivocally that ukraine's rightful place is in nato and ukraine will become a member of nato . nato. >> that's something that uk has said it was great that the alliance has that alliance has echoed that position and we saw at this summit meaningful progress on that path towards eventual membership. you've seen the removal of the membership action plan as the secretary general described it. that's turned the process from a two step process into a one step process, recognising what has already happened. you've seen the comprehensive assistance program be supported and that will provide support to ukraine. but also what you've seen is ukraine sitting alongside me and other allies in the first meeting of the nato ukraine council. these are very significant moves . it's are very significant moves. it's moments along ukraine's journey to membership and all of that

was complemented by by the declaration from the g7 allies to provide long term multi lateral security guarantees . lateral security guarantees. something that i said i spoke aboutin something that i said i spoke about in february at the munich security conference . and i'm security conference. and i'm highly confident that very quickly what you will see is other countries signing up to that same pledge . it won't just that same pledge. it won't just be the g7, it will be others. and if you take all of that together , i think what you've together, i think what you've got is actually president zelenskyy's words are probably better than mine to describe it. but he's just described it by saying that the outcome of the vilnius meaningful vilnius summit is a meaningful success for ukraine and that he is bringing home significant security victory for ukraine, for his country and for its people . those are president people. those are president zelenskyy's words about what this summit has achieved for him and for his people. and i'm very proud and everyone should be very proud that the uk has had a leading role to play in that outcome. and with regard to your other question about all, i'd say is, look, i am absolutely

laser focussed on delivering for the british people. you know, their priorities are my priorities. halving inflation because that's the best way that we ease burden on them we can ease the burden on them and cost living cutting and the cost of living cutting waiting lists because it's wrong that people have to wait as long as they are currently, and about stopping the boats because that's about simple. >> so that is of course, >> okay. so that is of course, rishi sunak at the nato summit. >> it is 3:05. »- >> it is 3:05. >> this is patrick christys and this is gb news big hour coming your way. >> the bbc's scandal. >> the bbc's scandal. >> i think we're all wondering what next, aren't we? the bbc appears to be in civil war. >> i will take you live to new broadcasting house in just a couple of seconds. time other couple of seconds. time in other news, though, is it time now to have mandatory age tests for anybody the channel >> our immigration minister seems so. seems to think so. >> before time. >> not before time. >> not before time. >> you ask me. >> if you ask me. >> if you ask me. >> in other i'm going to >> in other news, i'm going to be a lot as well. be talking a lot as well. >> of course, about nhs. >> of course, about nhs. >> look at this. you're >> take a look at this. you're in the you're full of in the nhs, you're full of you're of illness, you're full of illness, etcetera. then they try to etcetera. and then they try to pump full spaghetti.

pump you full of spaghetti. >> whoops, having a look >> whoops, we're having a look at the state of nhs food. i'm also going to be talking about this. >> a terrorist link to the manchester bombing could manchester arena bombing could well be out very, shortly. well be out very, very shortly. >> madness the streets of britain. >> patrick christys. gb news. >> patrick christys. gb news. >> look loads to go out today. vaiews@gbnews.com >> i am going to go straight away of course to mark white, our homeland security editor who is outside new broadcasting house for us as the bbc scandal rumbles on. >> we've had a couple of bbc stars now coming out and saying that they think that the individual in question should indeed be revealing their identity . identity. >> mark white joins me now. mark, is the very latest, please? >> well , there are kind of stuck >> well, there are kind of stuck in in limbo here, really as far as the corporation is concerned, because although we've had a number of new allegations, one of these allegations is made by the bbc's own news division , the bbc's own news division, they can't actually actively

investigate that those allegations because they've been told to halt any kind of investigation into this unnamed presenter . investigation into this unnamed presenter. while the metropolitan police scope out the possibility of launching a criminal investigation . you criminal investigation. you remember, of course, the flash or the splash, i should say that was in the sun newspaper on friday of last week that set all of this in motion. as far as this very public developing scandal is concerned . and, well, scandal is concerned. and, well, the police have said that they are looking into the possibility of whether to launch a criminal investigation. but while they do that, they don't want the corporation to continue with their inaya investigations into any allegations surrounding those presenters. so they can't do anything at the moment, even though , as i say, the bbc were though, as i say, the bbc were reporting a new allegation yesterday afternoon in the sun newspaper. again then overnight this morning reporting these two

other alleged incidents or four incidents in total involving four sets, megxit individual st giles' and the bbc can do nothing about actually getting to the bottom of it until we know what scotland yard is going to do. patrick no, absolutely. >> mark and of course we have had a slightly bizarre situation. >> jeremy vine coming out saying that he believes that the star should reveal themselves for want of a better phrase. >> and as you've said there, more allegations. >> people wondering what is next. >> wokeist i suppose is the, is the big thing that jeremy vine's tweet is on our screens now . tweet is on our screens now. >> i'll just read it if we leave it up there. i'm starting to think the bbc presenter involved in the scandal should now come forward these new forward publicly. these new allegations yet allegations will result in yet more being thrown at more vitriol being thrown at perfectly colleagues of perfectly innocent colleagues of his and the bbc, which i'm sure he , is on its knees with he loves, is on its knees with this . but it is his he loves, is on its knees with this. but it is his decision and his alone and the latest mark, as we understand it as well, is that the bbc star in question is

reportedly extremely angry at the moment, feeling as though their name , although not their name, although not revealed officially of course, is being dragged through the mud i >> -- >> yeah, exam >> yeah, this has come from another former bbc presenter, jon sopel , speaking of his ex jon sopel, speaking of his ex colleague and saying that he is aware that this unnamed presenter is extremely angry that they feel that the sun is just digging, trying to find whatever dirt they can on him to continue to, to tarnish his reputation. well as i say that jon sopel is opinion that he has sort of mentioned on his podcast today. sort of mentioned on his podcast today . jeremy vine you read out today. jeremy vine you read out the tweet there . he also spoke the tweet there. he also spoke on channel five this morning. i don't know if we still have that clip of available patrick, but he was very robust actually went further than the tweet that he put out last night saying that

absolutely this place is being destroyed by the allegations. that's been very badly damaged. and that his colleague needs to now come forward and present their side of this story. yeah mark, thank you very, very much. >> we will, of course, be going back and forth to mark white outside bbc hq throughout the course of this show . i outside bbc hq throughout the course of this show. i think it is reasonable to expect that there may well be some developments over the course of the next three hours here. the way that this drip, drip, drip is going is worth just a little bit a recap did bit of a recap as mark did there, of now four there, of the now four allegation that are allegation stations that are being forward and the being put forward and the potential issues that would arise as a result of those. there's claim one, of course, which is the alleged payment of money to somebody who may have been 17 at the time. we all know the connotations to that. that is why potentially there's potentially going to be some police involvement . we'll police involvement. we'll obviously have to wait and see what happens. their claim two is messages an abrasive, abusive

messages of an abrasive, abusive and threatening nature that raises questions there of an abuse of power, etcetera. claim three, of course, is the breaking of lockdown rules, which you know, seems to be almost fashionable the way that that was going on then. but then also claim four about these kind of reported creepy messages that have been sent. and you know, how long is it before it's just open season, really . but open season, really. but pressure is mounting now on this presenter to come forward . i'm presenter to come forward. i'm going to be doing a lot on this dark the course of the show, but i wanted to know what it is like to be the subject, dare i say it, of public discussion, public ridicule, public allegations . as ridicule, public allegations. as neil parish joins me now, who resigned as a tory mp after he was caught watching on his phone in the house of commons. neil, i'm sure you don't like to be reminded of that too much, but what was it like when the kind of drip, drip, drip came out and what was your approach to

handung what was your approach to handling that ? handling that? >> yes, patrick it's interesting because there were sort of 3 or 4 days of intense sort of pressure from the paparazzi kwasi mainly all the tabloids trying to find other issues . for trying to find other issues. for me. they didn't. they unfortunately for them, they didn't find any. so of course, i resigned quickly and that should have settled the issue. but it still carried on for quite a while. so i think what they do is they, you know, i actually owned to i did . is they, you know, i actually owned to i did. ithink owned up to what i did. i think they probably thought there was more wasn't. more to come, but there wasn't. so i think this one's interesting because as you see what's out there is it's not good, is it? but it's not absolutely terrible either. and so, i mean, it will be for the individual really to come clean. i think. so eventually and let the police sort it out. but, you know, the trouble is, so many people's reputations can be destroyed over perhaps what may be a real problem or what may not be. and i very rarely have sympathy for the bbc, but on this occasion, i probably have a

little sympathy for them because, you know, you only have to go back to the cliff. richard's days others where richard's days and others where people of hauled out. people were sort of hauled out. they were guilty until they could prove their innocence. and of course, were actually of course, they were actually innocent. so it is a real problem. >> yeah, is . >> yeah, it is. >> yeah, it is. >> and think you make an >> and i think you make an interesting the interesting point about the seriousness otherwise of some seriousness or otherwise of some of these allegations . and, you of these allegations. and, you know, okay, if it involves if it involves images of somebody who is not of legal age, then obviously that in itself is serious. >> if indeed it is true of course it is. >> but i take your point. >> but i take your point. >> but i take your point. >> but but i take your point completely when it comes to things like, you know, a threatening message or something along those lines, that is more of a cumulative effect, isn't it? and then when you mentioned an interesting point there, neil, the press get neil, about when the press get a get a whiff of something, they then opens the floodgates for then it opens the floodgates for them to just look for anything else. i suspect that's what else. and i suspect that's what we're we're seeing here and what we're we're seeing here and what we may well go on to see, which is things like quotes and

quotes, creepy instagram messages. mean, i've got to messages. i mean, i've got to admit that from what i have seen in these reported messages, i wouldn't have said that they were deeply seedy . right? but were deeply seedy. right? but then you add it to the other things that we see before and it gains this of momentum, gains this kind of momentum, doesn't so with you, doesn't it? so with you, they were digging absolutely were digging around? absolutely everything your were they? >> well, yeah. i mean, my office said, you know, chris, what have iseen? said, you know, chris, what have i seen? your guy said, i could have made a fortune on you because you know, they were ringing office every ringing up the office every five minutes what i had minutes to find out what i had on you. and of course, you know, he didn't actually anything he didn't actually have anything on also, was a they on me. but also, he was a they were very good office staff as well. so but, you know, they do they know, they were they try you know, they were hanging the for farm a hanging around the for farm a second day, third day. a couple stayed for almost a fourth day. i think what on earth they were expecting to i don't know. expecting to find? i don't know. but didn't find it. so but they didn't find it. so i think, you know, this is a problem where i think, you know, if you're not careful, it's sort of trial by media. and if the guy sorry, you know, if the

individual it's not not necessarily a guy or a woman. so i mustn't say anything like that. but like i said, whoever it is, i think, you know, in the end probably will have to make some sort of statement because i don't think the press will be happy until they have named somebody . i happy until they have named somebody. i do think that you raise another interesting point there. >> and it's a similar point actually to what harvey proctor said to me about this time yesterday, which was that in his case as well, when he came forward and did a press conference and when you resigned and obviously very different matters there. but when you resigned as well, matters there. but when you resigned as well , fundamentally resigned as well, fundamentally for both of you, there was nothing else that could have really come out and i wonder whether or not this is part of the problem that we're seeing at the problem that we're seeing at the moment with a lack of interaction potentially. of course, now, i was glued to the house of commons earlier for what actually turned out to be yet terrible instalment yet another terrible instalment of question

of prime minister's question time. i mean, tend do time. i mean, i tend to do a feature on this show called we are being run by idiots. and actually just play you actually i could just play you an hour that, for goodness an hour of that, for goodness sake, no. no mp used sake, but no. mp no mp used parliamentary privilege to name this individual . where are you this individual. where are you on that? i'm assuming you don't think should . think they should. >> i don't think they should, no, i think it's for the no, because i think it's for the individual to decide. i mean, if there is some real problem with victims here, then, yes, you know, in the end, this must come out properly. if there isn't, then do you destroy somebody's and their reputation and everything for i mean, some of this stuff in the sun is a bit hearsay, isn't it, to say the very least. and so therefore, i think, you know, i think the decision is for the individual . decision is for the individual. well, i think the problem that other bbc presenters have, of course, is that they're going around, you know, saying , is it around, you know, saying, is it you?is around, you know, saying, is it you? is it you, is it you? and i think it is a real problem. but but i think, you know, they it is really down now to the individual , is really down now to the individual, isn't it? >> just very, very, very , very

quickly. >> and finally. well, i've got you your mental health. when all of this was blowing up around you, how how was that ? you, how how was that? >> it was it was very bad, actually . but i'm better now and actually. but i'm better now and i'm getting on with life. and i've just done a series for channel 4 called banged up and when that goes out, you might see me in a slightly different light. so but we will see. but no, seriously, it was awful putting it bluntly. but you get through it. but you, you know, when your whole political career and i did have a good one and i did work very hard when it all blows up in five minutes. he albeit your own fault it is it is pretty nasty. yeah. okay >> well, look, neil, thank you very much. we've covered a range of stuff there, says neil parish there, former conservative mp. that was what we were going in on today, which is, you know, the very latest when it comes to this, the allegations facing this, the allegations facing this as yet unnamed bbc star and the impact that that can have on

people that's like over people and what that's like over the of the show. we'll be the course of the show. we'll be talking, course, to other talking, of course, to other people involved in this story. we'll bring you updates we'll bring you any updates as and get throughout and when we get them throughout the course of it. you can get loads more story on our loads more on this story on our website. gbnews.com it's the fastest growing national news website all the website in the country. all the best opinion and best analysis, big opinion and the breaking news and in the latest breaking news and in case been living the case you've been living on the moon with your fingers in your ears, gb also ears, gb news is also campaigning uk campaigning to stop the uk becoming cashless society. the becoming a cashless society. the campaign don't kill becoming a cashless society. the cancash, don't kill becoming a cashless society. the cancash, and don't kill becoming a cashless society. the cancash, and it's don't kill becoming a cashless society. the cancash, and it's proving kill becoming a cashless society. the cancash, and it's proving tol becoming a cashless society. the cancash, and it's proving to be the cash, and it's proving to be very, very popular. we launched a petition last monday. we've already than 210,000 already got more than 210,000 signatures code on signatures that qr code is on your right now . hold your your screen right now. hold your phone it and the rest phone against it and the rest becomes immediately obvious. you can to gbnews.com can also go to gbnews.com forward slash cash . right. okay. forward slash cash. right. okay. but rishi sunak has just given a news conference at the nato wmmw news conference at the nato summit. let's go now to vilnius to speak to gb news political editor darren mccaffrey. darren, thank you very, very much. so what was the what was the upshot

then of rishi sunak at nato narrowing down? >> yeah, very good afternoon to you, patrick. well, we've just heard from the prime minister in this very room on that podium behind me. >> he was effectively trying to communicate what a success at this summit was. >> perhaps unsurprising. >> perhaps unsurprising. >> we've just come actually >> ali, we've just come actually from the summit g7 leaders from the summit where g7 leaders had gathered , everyone from had gathered, everyone from president through to president biden through to emmanuel macron of france and president zelenskyy, where the g7 had committed themselves to providing effectively a hell of a more extra support when it a lot more extra support when it comes to military aid for ukraine, including some support when it comes to cyber as well. >> but prime minister having to defend to a degree the comments made by the defence secretary, ben wallace, this afternoon in which he talked about how ukraine needs to show gratitude for the uk's support, the millions of dollars worth of weapons that have been spent and also that ukrainian officials last year were effectively treating in many ways the west

as an amazon service when it comes to military equipment that is something i think that made the prime minister feel a little uncomfortable. >> well, clearly, he was with president zelenskyy today. they get on well. but in saying get on quite well. but in saying that the focus has been that a lot of the focus has been on this succession, whether and when how ukraine could join when and how ukraine could join nato . the prime minister dodging nato. the prime minister dodging questions that today. we know questions on that today. we know vladimir zelenskyy was not pleased the fact nato pleased with the fact that nato effectively the effectively kicked it into the long yesterday patrick long grass yesterday. patrick so in end , he wasn't really in the end, he wasn't really able answer that. and there able to answer that. and there has a bit of division, but has been a bit of division, but today's a good day for today's been a good day for ukraine that it's ukraine in the sense that it's got hell of lot of extra got a hell of a lot of extra support from the west and that i think, will something that think, will be something that president can sell think, will be something that presimuch can sell think, will be something that presimuch at can sell think, will be something that presimuch at home. can sell very much at home. >> thank you very, >> darren, thank you very, very much. darren mccaffrey there, our editor is, of our political editor who is, of course, vilnius for us. course, in vilnius for us. i thought that was absolutely fascinating, actually, what ben wallace on wallace was saying earlier on about how ukraine, in his view anyway, of treating us about how ukraine, in his view a|little, of treating us about how ukraine, in his view a|little bit of treating us about how ukraine, in his view a|little bit like of treating us about how ukraine, in his view a|little bit like an of treating us about how ukraine, in his view a|little bit like an amazon ng us a little bit like an amazon service. he says, i'm not a i am not amazon appears to be the line during the raj presenting him with a shopping list and a

wish weapons. wish list of weapons. and i think that's fascinating. him saying maybe there saying as well that maybe there needs be more needs to be a bit more gratitude. rishi sunak pushed back look in the next back on that. look in the next few minutes i will get the latest from the high court. probably only a matter time probably only a matter of time until there myself, until i'm there myself, isn't it? to it? but the high court battle to stop 2000 being housed stop 2000 migrants being housed at legendary home of the at the legendary home of the dambuster as that is very much hotting and also asking hotting up. and i am also asking as whether or not really as well whether or not it really is now have mandatory is now time to have mandatory age checks for anybody who comes across channel. right across the channel. but right now weather, the now it's your weather, the temperatures rising , boxt solar temperatures rising, boxt solar proud sponsors of weather on . gb proud sponsors of weather on. gb news afternoon. i'm alex deakin. this is your latest weather update for gb news from the met office more heavy showers to come this afternoon . if you come this afternoon. if you dodge them every now and then, the pop out, but it the sun will pop out, but it doesn't feel too warm out there. thanks a brisk breeze, thanks to a brisk breeze, low pressure to dominate pressure continuing to dominate . around that we are just . and around that we are just seeing of showers moving seeing bands of showers moving in. now. some parts of the south haven't seen too many showers,

but some places here have just seen after another. they're seen one after another. they're kind in lines, plenty of slow kind of in lines, plenty of slow moving. heavy showers across northern this evening. northern scotland this evening. but generally through the evening, the showers will tend to fade away. certainly a good chunk of england and wales will become dry overnight. northern ireland, too. with clear ireland, too. and with clear skies, temperatures down skies, temperatures dipping down in even into in rural spots, maybe even into single towns single figures. but most towns and staying at 11 to 14 and cities staying at 11 to 14 tomorrow may well start fine and sunny for quite a good part of the country . but we will sunny for quite a good part of the country. but we will again see some showers developing now, not as many, not as widespread , not as many, not as widespread, not as many, not as widespread, not as many, not as widespread, not as heavy as today, but there could still be some lively ones over the midlands, east and england, and particularly central northern scotland central and northern scotland dunng central and northern scotland during but much during the afternoon. but much of northern ireland, wales, southwest england, good chance of day tomorrow . a bit of a dry day tomorrow. a bit more sunshine, lighter winds feeling little bit warmer as feeling a little bit warmer as well for many will start the day dry friday. but look at this, dry on friday. but look at this, a mass of wet and windy weather swinging the south—west. swinging up from the south—west. that going be unseasonal that is going to be unseasonal windy and some windy in the south and some pretty heavy rain to go with

that too. again, that wet weather, too. again, temperatures generally high teens or low 20s as the temperatures rising. >> boxed solar proud sponsors of weather on . gb news. weather on. gb news. >> yes, let's continue to try to breathe some life into this news agenda today, shall we? a lincolnshire council is indeed in the high court today. that is in the high court today. that is in the high court today. that is in the fight to stop 2000 migrants being housed at a famous raf we are also famous raf base. we are also heanng famous raf base. we are also hearing that another hearing rumblings that another raf has secretly on the raf base has secretly on the quiet welcome some asylum seekers already. i'll be talking about that. a mandatory age checks for people who cross the channel patrick christys on gb news. britain's news

news radio. >> well get this it turns out that hospital food might actually cause you to develop cancen actually cause you to develop cancer. and there is news of the islamic state terrorist linked to the manchester arena bombing

who could be freed from prison by christmas. but first, the fight to stop 2000 migrants being housed at the home of the legendary dambusters is in the high court today. west lindsey district council is opposing plans raf scampton as plans to use raf scampton as accommodation for the asylum seekers. now that hearing will determine whether the case can proceed to full judicial proceed to a full judicial review too. but as i understand it, there might be a little bit more on the agenda as well. our political catherine political reporter catherine forster royal courts forster is at the royal courts of justice . cameron, there is of justice. cameron, there is news as well. cameron catherine sorry, catherine, there's news as well about a different raf base. as well about a different raf base . there's been identified as base. there's been identified as a base for migrants as well, isn't it? do you want to start us with that, please ? us with that, please? >> yes . so basically there are >> yes. so basically there are three appeals going on at the high court over the next couple of days regarding two raf bases that the government really wants to put channel migrants on. there is raf scampton will come back to you in a second and

there's raf wethersfield in essex. there's raf wethersfield in essex . now that base can essex. now that base can accommodate up to 1.7 thousand six. all male migrants and the case representing one of the people bringing this case today said that today migrants had already arrived at at the site, although reporters there apparently hadn't seen them. but certainly they will be there today, which is curious, given there's a court battle going on behind me. and if they win the right to appeal for judicial review, that again, could take considerable amounts of time. we might ultimately be looking at a position in which migrants that have already been put there might have to be removed, but basically another court battle for the government, another headache for wherever the government tries to put these migrants. there is local opposition and in both the cases of lincolnshire scampton and

wethersfield in essex, they are saying that locals were not properly consulted, not properly thought about that they don't have the right infra structure, that these are rural areas and are simply not suited to taking these sorts of numbers. and also for the current home secretary, suella braverman, the former home secretary, priti patel, has waded in in the last couple of days. also to say that she thinks that the site in essex, that's wethersfield , is totally that's wethersfield, is totally and utterly unsuitable. yeah no indeed. >> and i think that will be absolutely shocking , if not that absolutely shocking, if not that unsurprising for people if they find out that whilst there is an appeal going on at the moment in that court building behind you, they've decided to just plough ahead and plonk people at that site. but yeah, just coming to on the rf scampton issue, which you mentioned there as well , on the rf scampton issue, which you mentioned there as well, and spoke a bit a bit about, you mentioned there as well, and spoke a bit a bit about , there spoke a bit a bit about, there is of course massive backlash to that as well . what's it sounding

that as well. what's it sounding like in the courts at the moment then they've only just started discuss scampton in the last half hour. >> so we're still to get into the nitty gritty of that. but of course that site is particularly complex ofsted, isn't it? because it's fraught with historical significance . it was historical significance. it was the home of the dambusters and they're supposed to be a £300 million regeneration project of that base. so understandably, locals are very concerned because they think that this potentially housing up to 2000 migrants there puts that all in jeopardy . and they were hoping jeopardy. and they were hoping that that was going to bring lots of investments , lots of lots of investments, lots of jobs, and ultimately lots of tourists to that area. so we will continue with this case tomorrow when we will get the judgement, whether it will be tomorrow or at a later date. that >> catherine, thank you very, very much. it's catherine force there. our political reporter outside the royal courts of

justice. fascinating that development, isn't development, though, isn't it? clearly on the clearly trying to keep it on the qt. that despite an appeal q.t. that despite an appeal process going through, despite massive just massive opposition, they're just going a load these going to bus a load of these asylum seekers into base asylum seekers into a base anyway. be honest, anyway. and let's be honest, doesn't much more doesn't that make it much more difficult get them out of difficult to get them out of there, even if the courts decide that shouldn't in that there shouldn't be there in the place? people on the first place? some people on twitter already describing twitter are already describing it coward. act it as a coward. act gbviews@gbnews.com. what are your views on that? have they tried to secretly plonk a load of asylum seekers in a very contested site? but between now and 4 pm. there is news that dozens of hospitals are serving food that has been linked to the development of cancer care. i have got some rather startling images of some, well, substandard hospital food, to say the least . so we're going to say the least. so we're going to be talking about all of that. and, of course, we're asking about mandatory free age tests for channel migrants and a terrorist that could be out early. but right now, it's your headunes early. but right now, it's your headlines with rory .

radio , then count yourself radio, then count yourself incredibly lucky . let's bring incredibly lucky. let's bring the first picture up. we managed to glean these from various sources on line. i believe we might be able to show you in just a second. i think this is yes, that's sausage and mash. now well, i mean, is it really it looks like someone smeared a bit of mashed potato on the bottom of some polythene and then punched it and quite a horrific looking sausage, i believe. got couple of believe. i've got a couple of others you now. let's bring others for you now. let's bring them there we go. so them up as well. there we go. so this this is mashed this right, this is mashed potato tin spaghetti, hoops and supposedly somewhere underneath what like let's be honest what looks like let's be honest with you, a bowl sick is a with you, a bowl of sick is a vegetarian sausage. so i actually wonder whether or not the bowl is sick would have been preferable. and someone in my area said, that all right. area said, that looks all right. that more about you than that says more about you than me, mate. okay what else have me, mate. okay so what else have we here? what have we we got here? what else have we got? think we've got a couple got? i think we've got a couple of i honestly don't of others now. i honestly don't know what this does look know what this is. it does look like a cat has just coughed up a hairball and. right. nice side order rice. i i can see

order of rice. i think i can see one pea in the rice there. so that's a day. jamie oliver that's 185 a day. jamie oliver will that's185 a day. jamie oliver will be absolutely buzzing. what else got? more. else have we got? one more. i think we've more. here think we've got one more. here we come on. let's a we go. come on. let's have a look. that is the inside of what is allegedly mouldy jacket, is allegedly a mouldy jacket, potato. you go. anyway, potato. so there you go. anyway, see? one more, apparently. see? got one more, apparently. there more grief. there we go. one more grief. thatis there we go. one more grief. that is , i think. what would you that is, i think. what would you say that is donelan eaten, plain boiled rice. so there we are anyway. right? basically it's not particularly good, is it? you're going to hospital. you're already in a bad state. you don't want to be eating that absolute rubbish. but now it gets worse because emerged gets worse because it's emerged that the food bad, that not only is the food bad, but it could cause you to have cancen but it could cause you to have cancer. nhs trusts in england cancer. 61 nhs trusts in england are meat containing are serving meat containing chemicals that scientists say could lead to the development of cancer. could lead to the development of cancer . let's get the thoughts cancer. let's get the thoughts of the former presenter of fat families. let's honest families. and let's be honest with complete and with you, absolute, complete and utter fan favourite. utter gb news fan favourite. it's miller. steve look, it's steve miller. steve look, you're going to the nhs to get better, not to get cancer . better, not to get cancer. >> listen, i thought of it like this. if someone comes to my

house today and they're a scientist and also someone comes to my house today and there are food safe safety expert and they say to me, you know that bacon you're eating, you know that sausage you're stuffing in your mouth, etcetera . there's mouth, etcetera. there's nitrates, right ? stop eating it nitrates, right? stop eating it because there's a good possibility that you might get cancen possibility that you might get cancer. what am i going to do? i'm going to use some common sense. i'm going to either moderate it or i'm going to stop eating it. but guess what? we've had from the nhs, the response from the nhs, a load of old waffle. in fact , i think on the waffle. in fact, i think on the guardian article it actually said they're not available for comment , they're not available comment, they're not available for comment . when we're talking for comment. when we're talking about the quality of food and the potential of what they're dishing up could cause cancer , i dishing up could cause cancer, i think that's an outrage. and i think that's an outrage. and i think the other thing to say here is the quality of care, home food, you know , i have home food, you know, i have a special interest in the care sector and some of the slop that

some of these private care homes put in front of their residents. it is a disgrace. and there's a big link between these chemicals we're talking about and dementia. the acceleration of dementia. the acceleration of dementia and death by dementia as well. this is actually very, very serious. you've got the top scientists saying this has got to be sorted quick. you've also got children's hospitals here as well. we're talking about kids hospitals where they're serving this stuff . now, common sense this stuff. now, common sense says review it, change your menus. i mean, surely they can call a meeting. they have enough meetings for different things, have a meeting to change the menus start at least menus and start at least moderating the amount of this type of food that you're dishing up for people , especially when up for people, especially when it comes to sausage. yeah, absolutely , steve. absolutely, steve. >> and this is this is a massive problem, not just because of the cancer causing side of it, but every time i've been hospitalised to visit a relative or someone like that and they're

on the ward there is almost always someone on that ward who has actually got a relative to like bring them in a mcdonald's or something. and he's sitting there and you think, gosh, you know , you're in hospital. right? know, you're in hospital. right? and not the idea. you know and it's not the idea. you know what? in a hospital bed what? if i was in a hospital bed and feeling i'm and i'm feeling rough, i'm feeling awful, and someone bnngs feeling awful, and someone brings what looks like brings me what looks like someone has punched out like a student dinner and served it up to me, you're done , right? i'm to me, you're done, right? i'm getting on the phone to uber eats and i'm getting them to bnng eats and i'm getting them to bring chinese or bring me round a chinese or something. should be something. but we should be having much better food in hospitals. maybe jamie oliver should hospital should go and do a hospital special . special. >> well, i think maybe he should . and know, and you're right . and you know, and you're right . i do want to balance this, though, because are some though, because there are some hospitals that serve up brilliant menus for in fact, am a few years ago. i don't know what it's like now, but a few years ago i was at the george eliot hospital visiting and actually the food that they delivered was really quite good. and was a good variety of and there was a good variety of it . the crux of what we're

it. the crux of what we're talking about here, though, is that the experts, the science lists and the food safety experts are saying you've got to be careful here because all this food with nitrate rich food, bacon, sausage and hams , it it bacon, sausage and hams, it it there's a distinct possibility it can cause cancer. yeah. common sense in stop blaming. well, serving and they can't go there's no way they're going to say to me and expect me to believe it. >> they go, well this is this is the cheapest thing that we can get. it cannot be cheaper to serve, you know, a pretty low grade sausage or rasher of bacon as opposed to a salad for goodness sake, or, you know, even even like a bit of couscous i >> -- >> of course, i mean it, you know, and there are hospitals like i just mentioned, doing a good job. and the ones that are serving this trashy potential food that could potentially cause cancer , they need to pull cause cancer, they need to pull their socks up, stop being so lazy . look at the nhs trusts lazy. look at the nhs trusts that are doing really well. take a leaf out of their book and

change this. we don't need more review after review after review, not when the scientists and the health experts are telling us that these foods can cause cancer. just get on and do it . just flaming do it. that's it. just flaming do it. that's what i say. >> i'll tell you what, i'm glad you said flaming. >> all right, steve, thank you very, very much. my my, my heart, my heart was in my mouth there for a second look. thank you very much. rather that than some the food that's being some of the food that's being served up, though, the wonderful steve everybody, served up, though, the wonderful stevvery, everybody, served up, though, the wonderful stevvery, veryeverybody, served up, though, the wonderful stevvery, very much. dy, served up, though, the wonderful stevvery, very much. steve you very, very much. steve miller, course, star, miller, of course, the tv star, former presenter of families, no doubt nhs will, course, doubt the nhs will, of course, deny its food is deny that all of its food is absolute rubbish it absolute rubbish and indeed it isn't. a couple of you isn't. i know a couple of you are getting in touch with me now to i've been a to say, look, i've been on a couple of wards and the food is great. i get that, i get that. but look, we've just sent you some there and showing some examples there and showing you it being you some examples of it being utterly it is utterly rubbish. and it is a common isn't it, that common theme, isn't it, that actually food that you get on kind of low budget airlines can actually be than you actually be better than what you get hospitals. i do think it

get in hospitals. i do think it is an absolute disgrace. you know, people that know, you've got people that especially especially especially again, i'll keep banging the drum this drum for the elderly on this show. old and you've show. if you are old and you've maybe not got a huge amount of relatives who can bring you in something or something nice from m&s or tesco's or some home made stuff and are stuck there and you are just stuck there with rubbish and it's with that rubbish and it's towards end of the day and towards the end of the day and you're the last person on your wards get the grub they wards to get the grub and they just what's and just give you what's left. and it is absolutely naff. i mean look on your screens look at that on your screens right of mashed right now. a bit of mashed potato which they've had to flatten to make it look like flatten out to make it look like they're more of they're giving you more of it. and a monkey sausage. and a monkey looking sausage. this is a that is that is a student dinner that they're serving. there is no way that somebody just having somebody is in there just having had bypass is going had a heart bypass is going to feel better get any feel any better or get any better after having eaten that is think we should is a campaign i think we should be behind here. better be getting behind here. better hospital anyway. gb views hospital food anyway. gb views gbnews.com matters gbnews.com now get this matters a serious. okay. an a lot more serious. okay. an islamic terrorist with islamic state terrorist with links the manchester arena links to the manchester arena suicide bomber released suicide bomber could be released from a few weeks from prison in just a few weeks time. this was time. apparently this guy was already up parole, was already up for parole, was denied bad behaviour. so

denied it for bad behaviour. so it's he's been on his it's not as if he's been on his best behaviour behind bars, is it? why or why or why? yet again , are releasing these people , are we releasing these people out streets? are the out onto the streets? are the ordinary has to ordinary man and woman has to deal the consequences of deal with the consequences of this christys on this stuff. patrick christys on gb news

radio. now then lee anderson here join me on gb news on my new show , the real world. every new show, the real world. every friday at 7 pm. where real people get to meet those in power and hold them to account every week we'll be hearing your views from up and down the country. in the real world. join me at 7:00 on gb news, britain's news . channel news. channel >> right. well, at 4:00, i will have the very latest on the bbc presenter who is facing now allegations from four separate people for a variety of different issues . we'll be going different issues. we'll be going to new broadcasting house, bbc stars are now essentially in

open revolt and civil war over this. jeremy vine came out and said that he believes that that star should name themselves because it is casting aspersions on other people . and then some on other people. and then some other bbc stars are coming out and saying, yeah, fine, all right, innocent until proven guilty. there is all of that. but also people saying, well, hang on a minute. once people know it's not you like jeremy vine, does all really vine, then does it all really any matter what is fascinating is i have now spoken to a whole host different pr branding host of different pr branding experts , acas lawyers. crucially experts, acas lawyers. crucially as well, and indeed neil parish, who's the former conservative mp who's the former conservative mp who was embroiled in his own quite salacious scandal for watching in the house of commons. and they all said a variety of same thing. which variety of the same thing. which is is up to this individual is it is up to this individual in question now to completely in question now to be completely honest whoever it is that honest with whoever it is that is advising them , if they are is advising them, if they are going to make any kind of public statement . it is also absolutely statement. it is also absolutely vital that they believe that there is nothing more to hide as and when they if they do make

that statement . otherwise it that statement. otherwise it completely gets worse, doesn't it? what i strongly suspect is going to happen is that we're going to happen is that we're going to happen is that we're going to see open season and a drip, drip, drip . and it really drip, drip, drip. and it really is going to push the boundaries now about what is the right to privacy and in the public interest. so we're going to be talking a lot about that. but an islamic state terrorist linked to the manchester arena bomber could be released from prison before christmas as one of the people recruited to isis by abdul allah. ahmed jama farah was an associate of salman abedi, who killed 22 people in 2017. jama farah , who is 2017. jama farah, who is originally from manchester, face his a parole hearing in october. i am joined now by counter—terror expert chris phillips. chris, thank you very, very much. is the sunday reality for the british public that we have to accept that we can catch terrorists, we can put them behind bars for a bit, but at some point they are just going to walk the streets with us

again. to walk the streets with us agawell, is the issue. and >> well, that is the issue. and it's big because we know it's a big issue because we know that not being reformed that they're not being reformed in it's not as in prison. patrick, it's not as though they're, you know, going to out and be absolutely to come out and be absolutely fantastic. people. we know that they're they come out more they're often they come out more extreme than they go in. so we've got a series of people if this was only one person, you know, he's one of probably 50 people that have been released over the last few years. all of whom are highly dangerous to the british public. >> part of me and look, we obviously can't do this for, again, a variety of very good reasons, chris. but part of me wants to say to them, look, if you are absolutely desperate to wage jihad somewhere in the middle east, then you can go to the middle as opposed to the middle east as opposed to walking streets walking around the streets of burnage in manchester or somewhere but somewhere like that. but of course, we can't do that, can we? >> no, but i mean, if you think it's not just people that want to go abroad and commit crime, commit people commit terrorism, this is people that to do this. that want to do this. >> in the uk, we don't forget now it's, you know, it's 20 odd

years since the war on terror sort of began . and in that time sort of began. and in that time , at that time, many people were convicted. and those people are now back on the streets . it's now back on the streets. it's a really dangerous situation . and really dangerous situation. and to think that the police and security services can keep an eye on these people, can keep them under observation is nonsense. we know that's not happening . happening. >> we know. i mean, we have a succession of incredibly dangerous people who've been allowed out. there are individuals who wanted to blow up the london stock exchange. there are people who wanted to do absolute atrocities in places like birmingham, in manchester as well, of course. and indeed , as well, of course. and indeed, the associates people this is the associates of people this is the associates of people this is the big issue which you alluded to straight off the bat, actually, which prison is not actually, which is prison is not actually, which is prison is not a reform centre for terrorists. in fact, very often they come out radical than the day out more radical than the day that that is the that they went in that is the concern, isn't it ? concern, isn't it? >> it is a massive concern and we know for a fact and studies have been done on this, that that prisons just aren't reforming people . all they in

reforming people. all they in fact, what happens is they form the biggest gang in prisons and then people are put under pressure to actually become extreme islamic followers . so extreme islamic followers. so this is a major issue. extreme islamic followers. so this is a major issue . and there this is a major issue. and there are enormous number of people now that have been released into into society. we've had to do really serious terrorist attacks committed by people who have just been released. yeah we need to learn some lessons on this and it would be a really good thing. patrick if the people that got sentenced to prison actually did the number of years that they were actually sentenced to, that would be a good start. >> well, this is the other thing, isn't it? that the only thing, isn't it? that the only thing is a minimum point of respect for the british public? if we aren't being asked to tolerate on the tolerate radical islam on the streets of britain, which frankly, are , if we are being frankly, we are, if we are being asked to tolerate that at times, in view, there incredibly in my view, there are incredibly lenient sentences we're being asked to tolerate these asked to tolerate that these people will be allowed out eventually . i it's eventually. kwasi i think it's only fair for the british public

that these serve their that these people serve their full term . full term. >> yeah, absolutely. when someone's sentenced to 15 years in prison, you don't expect them to do 7 or 8. you expect them to get 15. and i think i think this is the big lie that our criminal justice system gives the public in the uk that, you know, they get a big sentence, but they don't do anywhere near that. and to think that they come out and suddenly are to going be really good members the public is good members of the public is just nonsense . just a nonsense. >> yeah, is an absolute >> yeah, it is an absolute nonsense . there a ready nonsense. and there is a ready made market for terrorism waiting them the outside waiting for them on the outside . no doubt they will have . and no doubt they will have got of their got the social kudos of their friends for having radicalised people on the inside as well. just reading another headline here as well, which is linked to this, parole board directs this, the parole board directs the prison release of terrorist friend of london bridge friend of the london bridge killer nizam hussain was jailed alongside khan in 2012 after a plot to blow up the london stock exchange. so that we go anyway. look thank you very look chris, thank you very, very much. as ever. and much. great stuff. as ever. and a for people well. a warning for people as well. just sure that you stay

just make sure that you stay vigilant there because vigilant out there because unfortunately, do a unfortunately, we do live in a country can either country where you can either plot a mass terror attack, carry out attack, or be out a terror attack, or be friends people and be privy friends with people and be privy to a terror attack. and then you can just get essentially a slap on the wrist, go to prison, which as far as can tell, is which as far as i can tell, is some kind of jihadi training camp. wander back camp. and then you wander back out the streets of britain out onto the streets of britain again to terrorise us all once more. no doubt. phillips more. no doubt. chris phillips their expert, their counter terrorism expert, look been look loads of people have been getting about a segment getting in touch about a segment that did on about that i did earlier on about hospital food. okay. and it really divided people. really has divided people. vaiews@gbnews.com. people are sending their sending in pictures of their disappointing but also great hospital saying this hospital food. i'm saying this now because apparently some hospital linked now because apparently some ho causing linked now because apparently some hocausing cancer, linked now because apparently some ho causing cancer, which linked now because apparently some hocausing cancer, which isiked to causing cancer, which is apparently polar opposite of apparently the polar opposite of what expect our what you would expect from our national service. national health service. get those coming in. patrick those views coming in. patrick i remember when my late dad was in hospital years ago and we hospital 12 years ago and we took him . we snuck him out to took him. we snuck him out to take him to a sweet shop because the meals were that bad then. and that is from lee. there's quite a lot of this. keep your views coming in and like i said

presenter scandal. the unnamed star is now facing allegations from four separate people . bbc from four separate people. bbc radio two host jeremy vine, who was falsely accused of being the presenter in question along with a whole host of others. it must be said, has repeated his call for that person to come forward now i find this interesting because they're starting to break aren't and break ranks, aren't they, and pile pressure on. i'm just pile the pressure on. i'm just going to play you a little clip now of what he actually had to say show this morning . say on his show this morning. >> it's his decision , but he >> it's his decision, but he needs to come forward now. >> i think i know his survival instinct has kicked in and i know he saw what happened to phillip schofield. >> but my god, look at the damage to the bbc. see? look at the damage to his friends and to those falsely accused . and the those falsely accused. and the longer he leaves it, the worse it will for be him . it will for be him. >> well, that is actually really powerful stuff from a very, very big name in the media. and a bbc colleague as well. meanwhile,

bbc presenter nicky campbell spoke out as he left his radio show this morning . so he said show this morning. so he said that he was drawing a line and didn't want to comment any further on the allegations or his own complaint to police about malicious messages sent to him on social media. so that is what nicky campbell had to say. the there well, on monday, the bbc met with the met police and this is something that i think could do with a little bit more clarity. so that's why i'm going to be talking about it right now. it's about the police involved with all of this. why is there any police involvement at all? what will the police be looking at? and what could happen really ? so the met police happen really? so the met police have asked the bbc to pause its investigations into the allegations while they scope out future work. so it's quite broad. they're keeping it broad.

they're keeping it vague. i can understand that at this stage. but what will the police be doing now and this is the thing, isn't it? because the old phillip schofield stuff was deemed to be, you know, unwise but not illegal. but is there a point of difference here? i'm joined by dai davies , who's a joined by dai davies, who's a former divisional commander in the metropolitan police. di, thank you very, very much. now one of one of the allegations here appears to be whether or not images are involved of somebody who was said 17 at the time . what will the police be time. what will the police be doing now? because they've not officially launched an investigation ? investigation? >> well, a very good afternoon to you. >> well, i've questioned why it's taking so long, frankly , it's taking so long, frankly, and i've never heard the word scope before. >> you've had five, six days now in for order the police to

investigate it, i always say if you don't get off your backside and go and investigate , then and go and investigate, then clearly you won't find evidence. now, this has been going on for some time , and contrary to some some time, and contrary to some claims, the family allegedly did go and report this to the police . i don't know who they reported it to. i'd like to know. i'd like to know why. they said at that initial stage there was no evidence of anything. i say again and i said it with bashir, i said it with some members of the royal family, unless you investigate, you won't find evidence. what i find extraordinary, frankly , is now extraordinary, frankly, is now day six. why haven't we sent a couple of detectives round to see the family? look at the evidence, go to the sun, say give us your details , give us give us your details, give us what you're alleging . that what you're alleging. that surely doesn't take week upon week to carry on. >> well, that is another good point . i'm >> well, that is another good point. i'm going to be having that discussion a bit later on.

di about the sun. there are some noises now just to say put up or shut up. i can understand from a commercial perspective why they might want this to run on for as long possible. but the sun, long as possible. but the sun, according said according to reports, has said we have to prove this to we don't have to prove this to the public. have to prove the public. we have to prove this police, which might this to the police, which might imply some imply that there is some involvement out there. and again, evidence of again, if there is evidence of criminality, would expect criminality, one would expect that they indeed going that maybe they are indeed going into the but into it with the police. but there a is a what i there is a there is a what i call it, a quirk of british law, maybe i will call quirk of maybe i will call it a quirk of british law, whereby an individual could engage in sexual acts with somebody as long as they are over the age of 16, physically. but when it comes to photographs , there is comes to photographs, there is that's not okay unless they're 18, is that right? >> well, yes . 18, is that right? >> well, yes. i'm not a 18, is that right? >> well, yes . i'm not a lawyer >> well, yes. i'm not a lawyer and i'm a little bit out of touch in some of this. i merely talk, as i've said to you many times with half a century of experience, there does seem to be an anomaly here that you can get married and have sex when

you're 16, get married and have sex when you're16, and get married and have sex when you're 16, and yet you can't knowingly choose to send images on the web. and of course , the on the web. and of course, the protection of children act of 1978 from memory. also says you're under 18. you can't acquiesce to it. so there are some anomalies , as you rightly some anomalies, as you rightly point out. clearly if this man was over 18 and he wasn't subjected to any force or any other kind of maltreatment to provide this , then i don't think provide this, then i don't think any offences have been committed ethically and morally. then clearly there are questions to be asked . so the first job of be asked. so the first job of the police is to investigate. go and see the all the parties concerned and if necessary , concerned and if necessary, speak to the announcer under caution. if you've got evidence . and let's see where that takes us. but this nonsense going on and on and on where we have a potential of nuclear war in the ukraine. well, it just beggars

belief. >> well , quite, belief. >> well, quite, quite. and i do know a lot of people are saying, look, there is a lot more important stuff on. and i get that. i get that completely . that. i get that completely. but, you know, this is also quite big and quite, quite explosive . and so there is explosive. and so there is clearly a demand to be discussing it. clearly a demand to be discussing it . and there is also discussing it. and there is also as well, the impending sense of more with this story. he's got the drip, drip, drip feel to it. and indeed, it has been, hasn't it, over the course of the last few days. so you don't quite get as someone who's been very high up in the met police why we are in a situation six days later where my on the face of it have been you know, evidence made available to them and we are no further along with a police investigation or anything along those lines. you find that slightly baffling . slightly baffling. >> well, i find it baffling . you >> well, i find it baffling. you know, in my old day, you send to detective round took your statements when you've got credible evidence, you went then

arrested people. that's how we used to do it. now there seems to be one rule for the bbc as we saw with mr bashir and others. now we're in the same place again where they're snooping wherever that means. and i say again , how long does it take for again, how long does it take for again, how long does it take for a two detective or however many you want to go and see all the parties concerned , gather the parties concerned, gather the evidence, and then start questioning and investigate , questioning and investigate, waiting. if at the end of that there is no criminal factors involved, then then tell us. but this is as you rightly say, and i don't blame you or anyone else carrying on with this , it is a carrying on with this, it is a matter of legitimate and the fact that this guy has chosen and we all know who he is, has chosen to hide among his lawyers . well, so be it. >> yeah. yeah and when it comes to police involvement with a massive story involving celebrity, right . is there one

celebrity, right. is there one rule for the way that they handle that? an unspoken rule, maybe for the way that they handle that as opposed to the way that they go after joe bloggs ? bloggs? >> well, you might think that i can't discuss the current policy or the current leadership, but it's crying out for somebody to get a grip. and whether that's the bbc or whether it's the police or anyone else remains to be seen. and it continues, as you say, to be a drip, drip . i you say, to be a drip, drip. i say, please, mr plod, go round, get the evidence. if there is a tell us and then let the bbc do their internal whatever . there their internal whatever. there is a moral and ethical case in this, but whether it's a criminal remains to be seen. >> you know, you know what actually, you make a really good point there because there's a huge amount of pressure on the bbc. people slating them, what are you doing ? you know, you're are you doing? you know, you're not naming this individual or have you dragged your feet investigate dating this? have you nothing from you learned nothing from previous of that previous mistakes? all of that stuff . there's also onus on

stuff. there's also an onus on the individual in question who even jeremy vine is absolutely calling for him to come out more than more than once. so there is that pressure on that person. but i think, you know what, maybe there should be more pressure on the met, maybe there should pressure on the should be more pressure on the police. if the police come police. look, if the police come out quickly and say, right, nothing criminal has happened here at all, then i don't think i don't know if it all goes away. but certainly, certainly it takes the sting out of it, doesn't it? the longer the met go on with this, the longer it bangs on. >> well, that's what i say. i say again in my day, you're going out. if you needed a warrant, get a warrant, go and nick them. i'm old school. if in doubt, nick em and get the statements first. in my day , you statements first. in my day, you got your statements. you sent your detectives round and then your detectives round and then you went and arrested. who? the evidence pointed you at. if they're innocent , they can tell they're innocent, they can tell you they can be questioned under caution. but again, we go back. what evidence actually exists? well, evidence does the sun have

and what evidence does the bbc have ? and why did the police have? and why did the police weeks and weeks ago, in their wisdom , who was it? at what rank wisdom, who was it? at what rank decide when the stepfather went to see them? and everybody forgets this. they did tell the police . that's why allegedly police. that's why allegedly they went on to whoever and whatever. and that's why eventually the allegedly the frustrated parents went to the son. and so we have this concoction on somebody needs to get a grip. >> something's got to give at the moment can be the police get on with it. >> i say , okay, look, di, thank >> i say, okay, look, di, thank you very much. >> always an absolute pleasure. it's di davies. he's a former divisional commander within the met something met police. look, something has to to give. to give. something has to give. we possibly , possibly going to give. something has to give. webe possibly , possibly going to give. something has to give. webe in)ossibly , possibly going to give. something has to give. webe in assibly , possibly going to give. something has to give. webe in a situation)ssibly going to give. something has to give. webe in a situation where going to be in a situation where there's this continual drip out of allegations, as it were, that arrange from the potentially criminal all the way through to the. a bit creepy, i suppose you could say, maybe in terms of

messages to whether or not lockdown was broken , to whether lockdown was broken, to whether or not threats were made, whether or there was an whether or not there was an abuse power. all this is abuse of power. all of this is going continue until somebody going to continue until somebody makes whether or not makes a decision whether or not the themselves the individual themselves comes forward. i find that increasingly unlikely. actually because i would have thought that they have that maybe they would have done it and as everybody it by now. and as everybody keeps me as well, when keeps telling me as well, when i talk or pr experts, talk to lawyers or pr experts, well, they going to come well, if they are going to come forward, have to be forward, they have to be absolutely certain or honest about idea there's about the idea that there's going else to come going to be nothing else to come out. i'm not we live in out. and i'm not sure we live in that situation at the moment with this, do we? the bbc clearly have feeling as though with this, do we? the bbc clearly gotz feeling as though with this, do we? the bbc clearly got theiring as though with this, do we? the bbc clearly got their handsthough with this, do we? the bbc clearly got their hands tied gh with this, do we? the bbc clearly got their hands tied to they've got their hands tied to it? met, don't it? the met, i don't know, dragging feet. we're dragging their feet. so we're caughtin dragging their feet. so we're caught in this vortex, aren't we? of gbnews.com but we? gb views of gbnews.com but loads on story on our loads more on this story on our website. to gbnews.com it's website. head to gbnews.com it's the fastest growing national news country. news website in the country. it's analysis, big it's got the best analysis, big opinion and all of the latest breaking of course, breaking news we are of course, relentlessly to stop relentlessly campaign to stop the becoming a cashless the uk becoming a cashless society. campaign called society. the campaign is called don't it's don't kill cash, and it's proving hugely popular. proving to be hugely popular. we launched a petition monday. launched a petition last monday. we now 210,000

every now and then, the sun will p0p every now and then, the sun will pop out, but it doesn't feel to warm there thanks to brisk warm out there thanks to a brisk breeze, low pressure continuing to around that we to dominate. and around that we are just seeing of showers are just seeing bands of showers moving in. now. parts of moving in. now. some parts of the haven't seen too many the south haven't seen too many showers, but some places here have just seen one after another. they're kind of in lines, plenty of slow moving. heavy northern heavy showers across northern scotland but scotland this evening. but generally through the evening, the showers will tend to fade away. certainly a good chunk of england and wales will become dry overnight. northern ireland, too, skies, too, and with clear skies, temperatures down in temperatures dipping down in rural maybe into rural spots, maybe even into single figures. but most towns and cities staying at 11 to 14 tomorrow may well start fine and sunny for quite a good part of the country. but we will again see some showers developing now, not as many, not as widespread , not as many, not as widespread, not as many, not as widespread, not as many, not as widespread, not as heavy as today, but there could some lively ones could still be some lively ones over the midlands, east and england, and particularly central scotland central and northern scotland dunng central and northern scotland during the afternoon. much during the afternoon. but much of northern ireland, wales, southwest england, good chance of dry tomorrow . a bit of a dry day tomorrow. a bit more sunshine, lighter winds

feeling bit warmer as feeling a little bit warmer as well. many will start the day dry on friday. but look at this a mass of wet and windy weather swinging from south—west. swinging up from the south—west. that to be on season. that is going to be on season. windy in the south and some pretty heavy rain to go with that wet weather, too. again temperatures generally high teens low 20s , a brighter teens or low 20s, a brighter outlook with boxt solar proud sponsors of weather on . gb news. sponsors of weather on. gb news. yes. okay. all right. well in the next few moments, i will get the next few moments, i will get the latest on that high court battle to stop to thousand migrants being housed at the legendary home the dambusters legendary home of the dambusters . and it is looking increasingly likely, way, increasingly likely, by the way, increasingly likely, by the way, increasingly likely that some asylum seekers have been moved in on the tuc to a different base. another military base in wethersfield. despite the fact that there is still a court battle going on about that, that all feels very, very cowardly. it feels very,

very cowardly. it feels very, very underhand, doesn't it? and frankly as well, we can all agree it makes it a lot more difficult to actually get them out of there, even if a court decides that they should. so there we go. we've managed to plumb gb the gb plumb new depths gb views the gb news but yes, in just news dot com. but yes, in just a tick will be talking to you tick i will be talking to you now about individual who was now about the individual who was a was bitten by a robber who was bitten by a police and is apparently police dog and is apparently suing police over that. yep, suing the police over that. yep,

channel yeah well shortly i will get the latest on the high court battle to stop 2000 migrants being housed at the legendary home of the dambusters. >> there is a more to that >> there is a lot more to that as as i understand it as well. as i understand it here. something pretty here. anyway, something pretty underhand appears to have been going another military going on at another military base as well. will bring you base as well. i will bring you the on that shortly after the latest on that shortly after 5 pm. we will have a lot on that. so just keep your eyes and ears peeled. but but there ears peeled. okay. but but there is that the government is is news that the government is set to bring in age tests for asylum seekers who claim be asylum seekers who claim to be children year. we'll be children this year. we'll be talking but here talking about that. but here is a justice, a case of woof justice, a convicted robber is suing the police after he was bitten by one of their dogs after stealing a motorbike. sonny was a motorbike. sonny soto was jailed for four and a half years after admitting attempted robbery, aggravated vehicle taking and driving while disqualified on june the 5th. lovely guy , a nice guy, but lovely guy, a nice guy, but solicitors are now taking action against the police after he was bitten in the abdomen by a police dog. i'm joined now by

colin tennant, who is a former police dog handler. colin, thank you very much. has the world gone mad ? gone mad? >> yes . >> yes. >> yes. >> good. now you call him ? no. >> good. now you call him? no. okay. so go on. you take it away. i've dealt with a number of these cases over the years. >> the best way of describing it is crazy. >> but i dealt with the case about two years ago, and the police dog bit a man on the floor. this man had walked up the high street, punched a woman in the face, attacked 2 or 3 other men, and eventually the police dog handler came in a van and arrested him. >> and during the arrest, he was kicking and violent and the police dog bit him . police dog bit him. >> he subsequently got his lawyer to contact me because as an expert witness, it's not my job to defend the for or work for the prosecution or the defence, but only for the court . so i gave my opinion that what

the police dog did and what the handler did was correct and that did not go ahead . and different did not go ahead. and different police forces have different systems. so so hampshire police, to the best of my knowledge, they tend to fight these and generally they'll probably win because justifiably so. but the way the police see it is this way the police see it is this way is if the cost of defending it, say, is 5 or £10,000, they can offer £3,000 to the criminal who's been convicted and they go for the cheaper option . for the cheaper option. >> but but this is this is just i mean, if you can try and go out on the rob and commit a string of other offences as well, it must be said at and be attacked by a police dog and then get paid for it. i just find that remarkable. really. i mean, what this would potentially spell the end for police dogs if all of these cases go through now. >> well , it's cases go through now. >> well, it's just a cost

analysis . analysis. >> when i was in the police, that never occurred . and so as that never occurred. and so as lawyers have found that they can make money by doing these cases where they don't charge a fee unless they win. and, of course, the criminal fraternity, what they'll do is they go on on social media. the all boast about how much money they got off the police having been bitten. yeah. and so subsequently, whilst they were committing a crime . committing a crime. >> um, so when i was in the police, there was no social media, so that wouldn't have got around. now, all these around. but now, like all these things, it's like lightning and it's adapted to human behaviour. >> if you think you can get a payout , however small, a large , payout, however small, a large, these people tend not to have these people tend not to have the morals that we have. they go for it. >> yeah, they go for it. i mean, there were cases a while back when the old health and safety stuff came in where people would when the old health and safety stuff (into in where people would when the old health and safety stuff (into especially)eople would when the old health and safety stuff (into especially commercialj break into especially commercial properties at night and try and whether nick off whether trying to nick led off the whatever they're the roof or whatever they're doing. and then they'd bail out

of upstairs window, of an upstairs window, they'd land on the ground land on a spike on the ground and they'd do the poor person who owned commercial who owned that commercial property them, even property for injuring them, even if were tucked in bed, if they were tucked up in bed, they'd the alarm on their they'd set the alarm on their warehouse the warehouse or whatever, and the next know, you know, next thing they know, you know, a from wherever to a skully from wherever tried to break into it and nick everything. and they end up paying everything. and they end up paying privilege of paying them for the privilege of doing that. talk to me a doing all of that. talk to me a little bit about the police dogs, though. i had the dubious honour tact by a honour of being a tact by a police once. it was all for police dog once. it was all for all camera, though nothing. all for camera, though nothing. not night out, but these not me on a night out, but these are these are absolutely well trained though, trained these things, though, aren't police dog aren't they? so this police dog would just been doing its would have just been doing its job the whole. job on the whole. >> police are well trained >> police dogs are well trained and or 2 occasionally are mis and 1 or 2 occasionally are mis trained or they're not suitable dogs. but generally, probably 95% are trained, but they are animals eyes and they react with animals eyes and they react with an animal instinct. and contrary to popular belief, domestic animals still have the wild in them. they are wild animals that have been moderated by domestic action. so when you train them to bite or attack , they often

to bite or attack, they often react to the way the person who they're attacking responds. if they're attacking responds. if the person stands still and doesn't create too much fuss, which is not always easy when a dog's on your arm, then they will tend to come off quite quickly. but if people are violent , they it's more violent, they it's more difficult sometimes to get them off because the person still being violent. >> but there's got to there's got to be a sense of what position, what position you put yourself in. >> right. because because if you if you've decided to go out and try to nick a motorbike and then try to nick a motorbike and then try to nick a motorbike and then try to evade police and whatever else is going on as well, we have to live in a society where people maybe hold their hands up or at least somebody does and 90, or at least somebody does and go, you've yourself in that go, you've put yourself in that position where you have now opened up the possibility that a police officer might set a dog on you. and those are the consequences for your actions. but to leave but we're going to have to leave it colin, i'm afraid. it there, colin, i'm afraid. thank you very, very much. great to have you on. hope to talk to have you on. i hope to talk to have you on. i hope to talk to you about this again as

through what we what we know ? through what we what we know? >> yes. so this is three appeals that have been lodged at the high court behind me asking for permission to have a judicial review into the government's attempts to send migrants to two sites. raf scampton in lincolnshire, home of the dambusters, of course, very historic and also rf wethersfield in essex. now this morning the kc represents one of the individuals bringing the case against the government for the site at essex said that migrants had already arrived at that site . and we had learned in that site. and we had learned in the papers in the last day or two that the government had said people could arrive there. this week, which is curious considering there's a court case going on behind me. but as for raf scampton, that it could potentially hold 2000 single male migrants and of course

locals there, as in essex, as in all these sites are saying that they haven't been properly consulted, that they haven't give proper thought to the infra structure or the lack of it in these rural areas. and the effects that having these people for what's probably not very temporary will have . they're temporary will have. they're saying that the government have been rather disingenuous , saying been rather disingenuous, saying that these are temporary measures , but then not giving measures, but then not giving any guidance of how temporary that might be. they think that these people could be here for years . so a lot of these people could be here for years. so a lot of unhappiness. but of course, the government is desperate to get the hotel bill down. we're spending 6 million a day housing migrant in hotels. and we found out yesterday , and we found out yesterday, didn't we, that we're spending half a million a day on empty hotel rooms that the government need to keep available just in case we have a big surge of migrants crossing the channel >> okay, catherine, thank you very, very much. catherine

forster there at the royal courts of justice for us. and i've just had some information fed that we can fed through to me that we can now reveal that 46 asylum seekers have been moved to in the base at wethersfield . so the base at wethersfield. so thatis the base at wethersfield. so that is the breaking line that 46 asylum seekers have now moved in to that military base at wethersfield . we are going to be wethersfield. we are going to be covering this a lot because there is an ongoing court case about whether or not this should be allowed to happen. the local mp there happens to be the foreign secretary , james foreign secretary, james cleverly, who is against it. priti patel is also against it. there are a lot of people who are, of course, all against it, including the residents and that's hence why it's in court. and so the idea now that 46 people have already been bused in and we're going to be hopefully going to wethersfield shortly to speak to a resident. so i'll bring that to you as and when we get it. but that certainly is a very, very underhand thing to have done. and i think we can all

understand that once people are in there , then it becomes even in there, then it becomes even more difficult to remove them. doesn't it? so that is remarkable really, that they've been moved in whilst there is an ongoing court case. but we'll bnng ongoing court case. but we'll bring more of that to you very shortly. but look, this ties into it. we're going to be talking a lot about it. age, checks, mandates, age checks for asylum seekers. but i wanted to ask you this. would you be opening your home to an asylum seeker, a new report essentially says that wealthy, worthy lefties should throw their doors open to asylum seekers to help reduce the £22 billion cost of housing them in hotels. well, we all know that won't happen, don't we? the people who preach about refugees welcome are usually the least affected by the issue, and they're happy for people in working class communities to take the brunt of the asylum madness . but i think the asylum madness. but i think this way of getting this is a good way of getting support for the illegal migration bill. tell anybody with four spare bedrooms or more that they're going to have to

start housing channel. migrants unless we turn the boats back or we start deporting more people . we start deporting more people. it was one thing housing ukrainian refugees. they were women and children fleeing a clear and obvious war zone. but housing young men from places like iran, afghans , iran, syria, like iran, afghans, iran, syria, iraq, albania or increasingly, india. well, that's a different matter altogether, isn't it? i suspect that another key reason that poshos wouldn't actually want a channel migrant living in their house is because they know deep down that there's a good chance even those claiming to be children won't actually be children. well immigration minister robert jenrick says that he wants to introduce mandatory age testing. apparently that should be done as standard anyway, but i bet a lot of these people telling their friends in the queue at waitrose that we need to be kind and compassionate and that aren't the tories evil and forcing a man with a beard to prove he's a child before we let him into a school with 14 year old girls. is against his human rights. yeah. okay well, they

wouldn't let one of them in their home because they know it isn't that it is the isn't safe. that it is the reality. the analysis done by the policy exchange think tank found cost of found that the annual cost of supporting asylum seekers in the uk around £35 billion, uk totalled around £35 billion, including hotels, allowances, health care , school places and health care, school places and new bodies such as the small boats, operational command in ordinary working class communities are doing their bit . we are all paying an extortionate amount of money in tax as it is for everything we are living . the nightmare of are living. the nightmare of this ongoing political battle where our mps and our lords cannot get their heads together and sort out the migrant crisis. this is their fault. this is their mess. communities are having their beating heart pred having their beating heart ripped out of them by having margaret hotels london on them. social housing is being used to accommodate asylum seekers and not british people. public services are being impacted. local safety is being compromised and nobody else knows dodi else and this is vital is coming up with a solution. it'sjust vital is coming up with a solution. it's just waffle about kindness and into national

cooperation, which doesn't actually mean anything. it's time for the lefty lovey poshos to step up to the plate. put up or shut up. i tell you what, wouldn't it be fascinating to see the resistance from labour and the lib dems about people with full spare rooms being forced take somebody can forced to take somebody in? can you imagine commotion in the you imagine the commotion in the lords? like in america lords? it's like in america where flew 50 where ron desantis flew 50 venezuelan to venezuelan asylum seekers to martha's vineyard, where multi—millionaire politicians have their private estates make these people put their money where their mouths are. it can't just be people in big cities or northern towns or welsh villages face being the brunt of it. tell them to open their doors to the people that they claim to love. so much and what support for the illegal migration bill go through the roof ? well, that's through the roof? well, that's what i think . anyway. i want to what i think. anyway. i want to hear from you. of course. email me gb views. gb news dot com. let's get more now on this plan to bring in age test for migrants. i'm joined by kevin saunders. he's former chief saunders. he's a former chief immigration the uk immigration officer for the uk

border calais. kevin, border force at calais. kevin, thank much. to thank you very much. great to have on the show. right, have you on the show. right, kevin? mandatory age kevin? look is mandatory age testing against somebody's human rights? how do you do it? well this is the difficult problem at the moment. >> um, mandates free age testing is a good idea , but what device is a good idea, but what device are you going to use now? i've heard people suggest x rays , but heard people suggest x rays, but we can't because under the 2004, um , as legislation from 2004 um, as legislation from 2004 preclude us using x rays to age assess people. >> so it's going to mean changing legislation. >> it's a really difficult one. patrick but it is one that we really need to get our heads around. >> no, indeed . but there are >> no, indeed. but there are different ways to do it. i suppose one of the other questions is exactly how accurate it is. but our current system is not particularly accurate, whereby a couple of social workers or representatives from the home office essentially sit down and

they have, like you do, literally at tescos when you want to buy booze. they have like a challenge 25 policy where actually if you are , if you look actually if you are, if you look 24 hours in their eyes, they essentially will give you the benefit of the doubt, which is bonkers. no >> yeah . >> yeah. >> yeah. >> i mean the, the system that we're using at the moment isn't, isn't brilliant. and in fact, what's happening is that we're veering on on the on the side of the immigrant, um , so if he says the immigrant, um, so if he says he's , he's 16 or 17 and we think he's, he's 16 or 17 and we think he's, he's 16 or 17 and we think he might be a little bit more if we can't prove he is, then we have to accept his word. and this really goes back. patrick to the fact that these migrants are throwing their documents away . if they didn't throw their away. if they didn't throw their documents away, it would be dead easy for everybody. for us and the migrants and we wouldn't have these ridiculous system

nations. >> no , absolutely not. but it is >> no, absolutely not. but it is a step in the right direction. i think that if we are indeed going to bring in age tests for anyone who claims to be children and that they are going to start this year, that is to according immigration minister robert jenrick after year old jenrick after a 41 year old asylum who posed as a asylum seeker who posed as a youngster , 41 year old asylum youngster, 41 year old asylum seeker posing as a youngster. scientific age assessments of migrants who claim to be children will actually start this year. it's a step in the right direction. but again, i mean, how many fully grown big, hairy blokes have had to have wander through the corridors of a secondary school or wherever, whatever else? i mean, you can see one of them now, can't you, in a young scouts uniform or something? utterly ridiculous. and it's just absolute madness that let it to this that we've let it get to this particular situation. but yeah, there you go. a 41 year old. i like the fact that this was this was tipping point. we were was the tipping point. we were all with olds. we all right with 30 year olds. we were right with 35 year were all right with 35 year olds. year old was olds. but the 41 year old was the when we all

the point when we went, all right, now enough's enough. it's getting silly. look, thank you very kevin. great to have very much, kevin. great to have you saunders, our you on. kevin saunders, our former officer you on. kevin saunders, our for|uk officer you on. kevin saunders, our for|uk border officer you on. kevin saunders, our for|uk border force. officer you on. kevin saunders, our for|uk border force. look,)fficer you on. kevin saunders, our for|uk border force. look, we've for uk border force. look, we've got doing this. and do got to start doing this. and do people care if if people really care if it's if it's how invasive is an x ray? the question big question the question is the big question is how accurate is it? the big question is how accurate is it? but remain convinced if but i'm remain convinced that if we people to the moon, we can send people to the moon, then we must able to create then we must be able to create some kind of scientific system whereby we can actually tell how old is. get load old somebody is. but get a load of this. want everyone to of this. vegans want everyone to stop yes some stop eating meat. yes well, some of to be fair. but now of them do, to be fair. but now experts are saying that their diet might not be healthy as diet might not be as healthy as they that's right. they claim. yes, that's right. this be a setback this could well be a big setback for vegan community. for the vegan community. apparently, them are apparently, some of them are indeed unhealthy. will indeed more unhealthy. i will also have an update for you also also have an update for you on that breaking news. brought on that breaking news. i brought to earlier apparently, to you earlier on. apparently, 46 a rather 46 people having a rather underhand clandestine manner been base. been moved into a military base. asylum the fact that that's up despite the fact that that's up in court, christys and in court, patrick christys and gb britain's news.

8 pm. on. gb news. >> welcome back. well, at 5:00, i will have more on that big breaking news. 46 migrants have been moved into raf wethersfield in essex. bear in mind that that place is currently undergoing a court at the minute see court case at the minute to see whether not they should be whether or not they should be there. they've there. well, they've just been moved to go to moved in. we're going to go to the very shortly, but it's the scene very shortly, but it's bad news for vegans today. oh

yes, it looks like refusing to eat fish cheese could eat meat. fish and cheese could actually experts actually be bad for you. experts are saying i believe that are saying that. i believe that is a plate that does have meat on anyway, we go. on it. but anyway, there we go. experts that vegans experts are saying that vegans and over 60 are and people over 60 are particular risk of suffering from fog, which apparently from brain fog, which apparently i just did them for a second. but that's associated with a lack of vitamin b12, which is found in meat and other foodstuffs that vegans won't touch with a barge pole. but it's not present in plant. joining me now is media and communications manager at peta. jennifer white, who it says in my autocue, who i believe is a vegan. so i now believe you are a vegan. there you go. right. good stuff . do you ever suffer good stuff. do you ever suffer from brain fog ? from brain fog? >> i mean, i hope not, but i'm really glad that you've actually brought up the issue of b12 because there are so many myths surrounding it. because there are so many myths surrounding it . and often if you surrounding it. and often if you look at the b12 blood levels in a vegan and a meat eater , there a vegan and a meat eater, there is no difference. and it's because it's all down to the individual's ability to absorb

this vitamin. and that's why in the article it also mentioned people who are over 60. and it's because as you age, you naturally just find it a bit harder to absorb those vitamins. but if you are a vegan and you're eating a nutritionally balanced diet, then you really shouldn't have anything to worry about. and so many vegan foods are fortified with b12 like milk cereals, plant based meats. so you know, anyone who is worried can take a supplement. but really, as long as you're eating healthily , this is it, isn't it, healthily, this is it, isn't it, having to take a load of supplements and stuff is it actually 100% safe to raise a child as a vegan ? child as a vegan? >> are you doing them a disservice because , i mean, disservice because, i mean, we're not meant to be vegan, are we? >> well, we know that vegans are some of the healthiest people on the planet and they are less likely to vegan. >> so this is the thing. this is the thing . when do you know? the thing. when do you know? >> have you always been. i wasn't born a vegan, but i've been vegan for ten years, so i

feel your audience is in good hands. and we know that vegans are some of the healthiest people planet and they people on the planet and they suffer know, suffer less, you know, less obesity, heart disease, obesity, less heart disease, less bowel cancer , inaya and, less bowel cancer, inaya and, you know, if you want to talk about something that is shocking and is extreme, it's the fact that nhs is still serving that the nhs is still serving processed meat which is classed by the world health organisation as class one carcinogen to as a class one carcinogen to sick patients . so that's what we sick patients. so that's what we should be talking about today. >> no, no, we have we had a big discussion on it earlier on actually about this. i mean that is an absolute shocker, to be honest you. the is honest with you. the nhs is serving people that may serving people food that may well actually giving them well end up actually giving them cancen well end up actually giving them cancer, is mean, yeah, cancer, which is i mean, yeah, 100. mean, give me me 100. i mean, give me give me tofu over cancer sausage any day. look, thank you very much. it short and sweet, but it was short and sweet, but i think you've managed to the think you've managed to set the world a bit there. world to rights a bit there. jennifer white there, who we have now confirmed indeed have now confirmed is indeed a vegan. apparently it's vegan. yes. so apparently it's not vegans who suffer from not just vegans who suffer from a bit of brain fog. if take a bit of brain fog. if they take their supplements, it will be all so the all right also. so do the elderly. apparently but yeah, get your b12 in, people. you've

houn the news that broke in the last hour. the first migrants have arrived at an raf base in essex. despite fervent local opposition and frankly , more to the point, and frankly, more to the point, and frankly, more to the point, an ongoing court asylum an ongoing court case. 46 asylum seekers who crossed the channel on small boats weekend , all on small boats last weekend, all of are men, by way, are of whom are men, by the way, are now wethersfield . well, now in raf wethersfield. well, here is what i'm going to go there very shortly. actually, i'm going to go there very shortly because one thing is fascinating, they're talking about far protesters have about far right protesters have gathered outside. i remain unconvinced lot of these unconvinced that a lot of these people indeed right. people are indeed far right. there's just concerned there's a lot of just concerned residents, frankly, this label that going but we're that is going about. but we're going the scene shortly going to go to the scene shortly anyway. it just feels very underhand, this clandestine underhand, this very clandestine and bizarre considering what is currently going on in court. but here is what the immigration minister, robert jenrick , had to minister, robert jenrick, had to say earlier on. >> well, the first migrants have now arrived at our site in wethersfield in essex and those who will be coming to the barge in portland in dorset will arrive in due course. it's right that we house those people

who've come across in small boats in appropriate accommodation . nye bevan it was accommodation. nye bevan it was never fair to the british taxpayer that people were being housed in expensive forms of accommodation and the sites that we're bringing forward now provide decent but not luxurious accommodation and we'll be standing up more in the future. >> well, this is absolutely the right policy in the national interest because it's not fair or right to the british taxpayer that migrants those people have come across illegally in small boats, were being housed in expensive forms of accommodation i >> -- >> but we completely understand the legitimate concerns of local residents , and that's why we've residents, and that's why we've set out in the months and weeks that have passed since we announced this policy to mitigate as many of those issues as possible. >> and we're going continue >> and we're going to continue to work with local councils and members of parliament in the weeks to these weeks ahead to make these policies succeed . policies succeed. >> but on a national scale , it >> but on a national scale, it has to be right that we house those people who come across illegal in appropriate forms of

accommodation like this, which is less expensive to the taxpayer . taxpayer. >> and that's exactly what all of our european neighbours are doing as well. >> large sites are being used in germany. >> barges are being used in belgium and the netherlands. and so we're just making the same choices that other countries are making to house people in appropriate and less expensive forms of accommodation . forms of accommodation. >> what do you make of that? trying to sell this as a win, as a victory for the british taxpayer? i mean, another one that's undergoing that's currently undergoing basically the same court case is, of course , scampton that was is, of course, scampton that was due to have a £300 million regeneration project . and i regeneration project. and i suppose you could argue the money that they saved the taxpayer there is that on the amount of cutbacks that they've had to make doing the place had to make by doing the place up, it is up, maybe. i mean, it is bonkers, isn't and this idea bonkers, isn't it? and this idea now that we have 46 asylum seekers who've crossed the channel site is due channel there, this site is due to house around 1700 men in and supposedly anyway , they're only supposedly anyway, they're only going to be there for 180 days

each. well, if we just keep a little tab of the and a note of the date, they're now all i dare say that that base will be full. very, very shortly and that those people there will no doubt end up staying a lot longer than the 180 days because we're not really deporting anybody, are we? and we don't have that as a deterrent. so it's all very well and good for robert jenrick, our immigration minister, to come out and say, well, look, we are saving taxpayer money here. saving the taxpayer money here. now, house 1700 now, if that house is 1700 people, we've had 1700 people, okay, we've had 1700 people, okay, we've had 1700 people cross the channel since thursday . so that's and thursday. so that's them. and then if the weather remains good , then that carries on. and then where are those people going to go? because we're processing go? because we're not processing them there's even talk them in time. there's even talk of an amnesty 10,000 people. of an amnesty for 10,000 people. that the news yesterday or that was the news yesterday or the day before . so 10,000 people the day before. so 10,000 people are be given just an are going to be given just an amnesty right. well, where amnesty or. right. well, where do it's all very well do they go? it's all very well and saying we won't deport and good saying we won't deport you. but there again, we're not really anybody. really deporting anybody. are we? braverman we? suella braverman has tried to am a fan of suella, to use who i am a fan of suella, but hands are tied to an

but her hands are tied to an extent with this. she's trying to use this rare emergency declaration bypass normal declaration to bypass normal planning the planning permission for the military . so what military bases. so what she's saying is that this is obviously an emergency and therefore we don't have to go through the normal planning routes which would up and then would hold things up and then people can moved in which is would hold things up and then peonhat's moved in which is would hold things up and then peonhat's happened. in which is would hold things up and then peonhat's happened. buthich is would hold things up and then peonhat's happened. but it's is now what's happened. but it's interesting you've former interesting, you've got former home priti patel among home secretary priti patel among those opposing the plans. james cleverly our current foreign secretary is opposing these plans . local resident groups are plans. local resident groups are all opposing these plans. it's actually in court at the moment. so what happens now if in a week's time or indeed a days time at the high court, it's decided that it is wrong for these people to be housed there ? these people have just moved in. are they really going to be evicted ? where do they go? evicted? where do they go? i don't quite understand what the procedure is going to be there. a barrister representing the local residents has told the high court that the government has acted unlawfully and did not have permission to house asylum

seekers at wethersfield . so the seekers at wethersfield. so the local residents are saying that this is illegal, but it also now appears to be incredibly underhand . so as local residents underhand. so as local residents walked into a high court hearing today to try to say that what the home office is doing, in their view, is illegal, the home office was moving people in to their base at wethersfield this morning . the first number of morning. the first number of asylum seekers have been moved onto the site, so it carries a particular pertinence. alex goodman, kc said the asylum seekers have been moved in today. the use is in progress. the question is whether that is deemed a grant of planning permission . apparently the permission. apparently the planning bypass applied covered an emergency development for 12 months. the home office indicates covid that wethersfield could be used for much longer than 12 months. so there's kind of layer upon layer of questioning and scrutiny that needs to go into all of this. apparently, this site could be

occupied for as long as five years or quotes as long as it remains expedient to do so. well, that really hinckley is probably going to be forever evenisnt probably going to be forever ever, isn't it? can you imagine being a local resident there thinking, well, that's all right, we'll go through due process, to court. process, we'll take it to court. surely we've got a chance of winning here. and then on the day you arrive at court, 46 day that you arrive at court, 46 male asylum seekers begin to be housed at the raf base. despite it, the local opposition . well, it, the local opposition. well, today's announcement about raf wethersfield, hopefully we are going to go there shortly comes as west lindsey council in lincolnshire is challenging the government's plans to house migrants at raf scampton. now beanng migrants at raf scampton. now bearing in mind those people in raf scampton and around that local will have seen local area will have just seen what's happened here. and am what's happened here. and i am reading things online at the moment that appears to suggest that of the reasons why that one of the reasons why a lot of the local press who've been gates here been gathered at the gates here didn't actually the asylum didn't actually see the asylum seekers in is seekers being brought in is because brought in. because they were brought in. apparently different apparently through a different entrance. there's entrance. so again, there's clearly of trying to

clearly an element of trying to hide cover this up, hide this and cover this up, isn't yes, apparently isn't there? but yes, apparently the scampton case is still the raf scampton case is still being as well . that is, of being heard as well. that is, of course, the home of the dambusters political reporter catherine joins from dambusters political reporter catherirthe joins from dambusters political reporter catherirthe high joins from dambusters political reporter catherirthe high court. from dambusters political reporter catherirthe high court. so, rom dambusters political reporter catherirthe high court. so, yes, outside the high court. so, yes, thatis outside the high court. so, yes, that is now the revelation that was mentioned in court earlier. we've heard from the immigration minister, robert jenrick there. his this is great his line is that this is great news for the british taxpayer. but as those people now representing, whether field essentially rocked up at the high court today, they were greeted with the information that that base that they've left back at home is currently being filled with the very people that they are trying to protest against. >> yes, it's quite extraordinary, isn't it, patrick? and of course, this court case that's taking place today and tomorrow . well, three today and tomorrow. well, three jointly to try to block the government from sending people to this raf base in essex, which clearly they're doing anyway, to and the raf scampton in

lincolnshire shire, the very historic famous home of course, of the dambusters during the war. but this hearing is only to ask for permission , ian, to then ask for permission, ian, to then get a judicial review so that would be another court case at another day which could rumble on for weeks and weeks and weeks. so no end in sight to this. and raf scampton in particular, of course , they particular, of course, they share the same concerns as the people in essex. in scampton case, they could house up to 2000 asylum seekers, but also they had a £300 million regeneration regional station project earmarked for their making it a heritage site. with all the investment, the jobs, the tourism that that would bring. the tourism that that would bnng.and the tourism that that would bring. and of course the government have said, oh, this is only temporary. they've got, as you've mentioned, these temporary permit development rights supposedly for around a yeah rights supposedly for around a year. but it's deeply unclear

how long these sites will be used for. and they were saying before it could be up to five years, which doesn't sound very temporary to many, many people. >> well, it's not. is it? ashley? catherine, thank you very much. catherine force who's been doing stellar stuff out for us outside the royal courts of justice today. as promised , i justice today. as promised, i can get more on the decision to move 46 migrants into raf wethersfield i'm very pleased to say that. joining me now is dave price . oh, i'm not pleased to price. oh, i'm not pleased to say that because unfortunately dave has just dropped off the line. but hopefully at some point somebody tells me that we do andi point somebody tells me that we do and i might do have dave price and i might be to actually talk to him, be able to actually talk to him, which would absolutely which would be absolutely lovely. to fill lovely. but yes, just to fill you of course, is the you in, of course, this is the very at the moment, which very latest at the moment, which is that 46 people have been moved in that particular moved to in that particular base. going delve base. i'm just going to delve into terrifying world of my into the terrifying world of my inbox, views news dot inbox, gb views at gb news dot com. doesn't matter what the com. it doesn't matter what the people about asylum people think about the asylum seekers that housed, this seekers that get housed, this government does what it likes and that feel to and it does have that feel to it, doesn't think at the

it, doesn't it? i think at the moment the that no matter whether local are whether or not local mps are against it, local cabinet ministers against the ministers are against it. the pubuc ministers are against it. the public are against it and indeed it is going through a due process in in in courts. it would appear that the government can go and do what it can just go ahead and do what it wants i'll just refer people wants and i'll just refer people back to what i was saying before, which is it's all very well and good for a lot of the kind of lefty lobby millionaires with 4 5 bedrooms to spare with 4 or 5 bedrooms to spare say, oh, look, it's all all right. and for people in the house of lords for mps house of lords for and our mps to just knock the illegal migration back and forth migration bill back and forth and start making these ridiculous assertions as we just need more international need to do more international cooperation, all about safe cooperation, it's all about safe and legal routes, right? fine. well, look , more international well, look, more international cooperation would safe cooperation would be nice, safe and routes. okay. and legal routes. yes. okay. that nice. but in the that would be nice. but in the meantime, ongoing meantime, we have an ongoing crisis and it is ordinary working people who are having to face up the brunt of this. face up to the brunt of this. and really and if the government really wants garner public support, and if the government really viwould garner public support, and if the government really viwould stronglypublic support, and if the government really viwould strongly suggestrpport, and if the government really viwould strongly suggest thatt, i would strongly suggest that they should start saying to people, you know what, we will plonk your area and find

plonk them in your area and find the wealthy parts, find the areas that are voting for the mps who are blocking all of this asylum seeker solutions and start saying, well, we're going to plonk a load of them there then. and i reckon you would suddenly see the support for an illegal migration bill go through roof. on this through the roof. more on this vaiews@gbnews.uk com. vaiews@gbnews.uk. com. patrick this is absolutely this accommodation is absolutely not , john says robert not suitable, john says robert jenrick is. the immigration minister said what he had to say to justify people being taken to wethersfield . but for me that wethersfield. but for me that says that the government is underhand to the umpteenth degree d and in no way will i ever vote for them again , he ever vote for them again, he says. he goes on to say , says. he goes on to say, politically, i see no hope for the uk . this is what we are the uk. this is what we are seeing a lot , the uk. this is what we are seeing a lot, isn't it? the uk. this is what we are seeing a lot , isn't it? today seeing a lot, isn't it? today i've done two of these stories. one from the same bloke, robert jenrick first saying, oh jenrick first one saying, oh god, want to start age god, i really want to start age testing the channel migrants. and he knows that's going to get people knows that's people going. he knows that's why of people want he why a lot of people want he knows sick and

knows that people are sick and tired some bloke his 40s tired of some bloke in his 40s rocking a school and rocking up at a school and pretending to be a child. okay, so that all sounds good, but then the same breath we have then in the same breath we have people secretly bused people being secretly bused into a contested former military base. that's just a okay and base. and that's just a okay and the local residents have to suffer look, suffer that. well, look, hopefully will get a little hopefully we will get a little bit more this story in just bit more on this story in just two six. make you stay with two six. make sure you stay with us. we are desperately trying to get to wethersfield, get to the wethersfield, gb views gb news.com views and gbnews.com is that inbox. popped off inbox. it has popped right off the migrant is a complete the migrant crisis is a complete mess, julie. yes, indeed. mess, says julie. yes, indeed. it right. on this on it is. right. more on this on our website gbnews.com. it's the fastest news fastest growing national news website it's got website in our country. it's got the best analysis, all the big opinion and the latest breaking news. and yes, i will be going there very shortly. hopefully but first, it is the weather for the fifth time, a brighter outlook with boxt solar proud sponsors of weather on . gb news afternoon. >> i'm alex deakin. this is your latest weather update for gb news from the met office.

channel right ? right? >> as promised, we can get more on the decision to move 46 migrants into raf wethersfield . migrants into raf wethersfield. joining me now, fingers crossed is dave price, who is a local resident . dave, thank you very resident. dave, thank you very much. good stuff . right. okay. much. good stuff. right. okay. so how do you feel about the idea that you've got a court case going on at the moment to

decide whether or not it's actually really legal, what's going on now? and the home office have just literally dnven office have just literally driven full of asylum driven a bus full of asylum seekers your area and seekers into your local area and plonked there. well i think plonked them there. well i think like people , we feel like most people, we feel unhappy about it. >> you know, we're in a situation where they're still going through court process, going through the court process, at the home office could at least the home office could show courtesy to the system show some courtesy to the system . are . . we are. >> yeah. okay and you must have been quite the driving things through . yeah, you must have through. yeah, you must have been quite surprised , dave. no. been quite surprised, dave. no. were you to learn that on the day of the high court case, actually they decided today was the day where these people were going moved in. no, no , going to be moved in. no, no, nothing surprises me about the home office and the way how it's treating local residents, not just in wethersfield, but all the surrounding villages. >> i think that's what, you know, people say wethersfield village. well, actually, this finchingfield village, the civil headingham , there's shalford. headingham, there's shalford. there's bardfield. they're all within easy walking distance

from the airbase. and we've only had one repeat, one meeting with the home office , which is the home office, which is absolutely appalling . and that absolutely appalling. and that is about eight weeks ago, we asked a lot of questions. they said to get back to us with answers. and you know what the answers. and you know what the answers are just not existent, not what a fake . not what a fake. >> you've had more meetings with the home office in court than you have just as a courtesy, which i think says a lot about this situation . i would imagine this situation. i would imagine dave , you will be worried now dave, you will be worried now that they've done this deliberately and in quite an underhand manner to make it more difficult to actually remove these people . let's be honest, these people. let's be honest, it's still ongoing through the courts. so you're going to end up even if you are successful this time, you're going to end up having to have another court case by which time it's reasonable expect that this reasonable to expect that this place will be full, which makes it more difficult to get it even more difficult to get these of there. these people out of there. so essentially your

essentially they've tied your hands back and led hands behind your back and led you out side and metaphorically speaking, put a bullet in the back your head. speaking, put a bullet in the bacit's your head. speaking, put a bullet in the bacit's notrr head. speaking, put a bullet in the bacit's not faread. speaking, put a bullet in the bacit's not far from it. they've >> it's not far from it. they've been sneaky, even in been really sneaky, even in terms the way how they terms of the way how they brought them in today. there's they brought them in through another gate well away from all the media cameras that were there, well away from the journalists and away from residents and other people who were protesting about the whole concept of using such a small village . farage so, you know, village. farage so, you know, using their base, i should say, so close to such a small village, you know, 7300 residents, that's all the villages around here. you know, there are about 6700. and the ratio is appalling. you know, compare this with napier, which is what the home office often say is their model. you've got about 400 residents next to folkestone and hythe with a population of 110,000. and not only that, but the roads around

here are really, really bad . and here are really, really bad. and you've had two accidents in this village in the past three weeks simply because the roads are that bad. the amount of increased traffic and actually the risk to the asylum seekers, there's no decent pavement down from the base canal, there's no decent pavement down from the base canal , cutting it from the base canal, cutting it with various villages is the home office hasn't even bothered to put pedestrians in the road leading up to the base . leading up to the base. >> dave we just played a clip earlier on from our immigration minister robert jenrick, who said that this what's happening right now is good news for the british taxpayer. this is a good story because they're going to stop using the hotel. they're putting them in accommodation. that's just about right. it's not luxurious . it's not too not luxurious. it's not too expensive . and that basically expensive. and that basically he's trying to spin it as the taxpayer should be happy about this. you're a taxpayer, dave . this. you're a taxpayer, dave. >> well , i'm

this. you're a taxpayer, dave. >> well, i'm pretty unhappy , as >> well, i'm pretty unhappy, as are many, in fact , most of the are many, in fact, most of the residents of wethersfield . the residents of wethersfield. the reality is that anyway, the present moment in time, the spending money on mbappe hotel rooms, 5000 rooms are available for them to use. they're paying for them to use. they're paying for them to use. they're paying for them . they're empty. and for them. they're empty. and what do you mean by savings? they make the money they're having to spend on their various facilities around the around the country . dodi their own country. dodi their own situation where, you know, up at wethersfield , they've chucked wethersfield, they've chucked out loyal service families with a week's notice and put them into new houses. i'm not saying they don't deserve good accommodation , the military accommodation, the military families, but you know , that's families, but you know, that's a cost. that's their camilla tominey. there's many other costs as well . your biggest cost costs as well. your biggest cost is to us, as you know, we are the ones who are paying the price for it. excuse the pun, on my name . my name. >> well, yeah , yeah, i suppose.

of these allegations , you have of these allegations, you have got individuals within the bbc, star presenters like jeremy vine. now coming out very publicly and saying that it's time , however painful it might time, however painful it might be, for this unnamed presenter to come forward and to speak publicly. this is what he said on his channel five programme this morning. >> it's his decision , but he >> it's his decision, but he needs to come forward now. >> i think i know his survival instinct has kicked in and i know he saw saw what happened to phillip schofield , but my god, phillip schofield, but my god, look at the damage to the bbc. >> look at the damage to his friends, to those falsely accused and the longer he leaves it, the worse it will be for him i >> -- >> and clearly it's very difficult for bbc staff here who are seeing day after day more in the way of allegations . there

the way of allegations. there are many people here who are very angry at the fact that the bbc is just continue to suffer this daily kicking in the media and there are others who are angry towards this unnamed presenter . angry towards this unnamed presenter. but at the end of the day , these allegations are day, these allegations are untested and they can't be tested until scotland yard come forward and let us know exactly what they are doing, whether they feel there's enough for an investigation or whether it's not in their , our estimation, a not in their, our estimation, a criminal offence that's been committed. >> absolutely . mark, thank you >> absolutely. mark, thank you very, very much. mark white there at home and security editor outside new broadcasting house. that another house. and that is another fascinating to fascinating development to this whole isn't which is whole saga, isn't it, which is that very well and good that it's all very well and good saying the bbc should be doing a bit more and i think it's reasonable to expect that maybe they they've big they should. they've got big questions answer their questions to answer about their handung questions to answer about their handling that's handling of this. that's unequivocal. it's all very well and the and good saying that the individual themselves should come also. all come forward. it's also. all right to say that the sun should

be out saying, look, be coming out and saying, look, here it all is here is absolutely everything . the sun, absolutely everything. the sun, for what it's worth, there. latest as far as i can latest line, as far as i can gather, is that have to prove gather, is that we have to prove our claims to the police and not to the public. interesting. but i think that is the good dynamic to it now, which is that, well, if got their backsides if the met got their backsides in gear and rattled through this quicker, then we would have some in gear and rattled through this quickof then we would have some in gear and rattled through this quickof resolution.ould have some in gear and rattled through this quickof resolution. and have some in gear and rattled through this quickof resolution. and then some in gear and rattled through this quickof resolution. and then there form of resolution. and then the bbc can go on and do whatever they need but the bbc has they need to do. but the bbc has of course, absolutely copped it for the way that it's handled this latest episode. you hate to see it, don't you? but how should have with it should they have dealt with it better? also crucially as better? and also crucially as well, this well, what should this individual doing the individual be doing now, the unnamed bbc presenter am unnamed bbc presenter i am joined by none other than crisis management specialist andy barr, the kind of chap i imagine i should probably have on speed dial. but andy, thank you very much. great have on the much. great to have you on the show. start, if it's okay show. let's start, if it's okay with you, with the unknown named presenter , what should they do .

presenter, what should they do. >> good afternoon. well, it's a car crash, isn't it? and i think he's trying to keep quiet. >> he's trying to he's trying to keep it out of the he's trying to keep his brand. i guess , out to keep his brand. i guess, out of the firing line. >> but the reality is he can do very little. it's a police matter at the minute. >> the investigation is ongoing . and until that all comes out, there's nothing really he can say . say. >> i'll tell you what. you know what? to change what? i'm just going to change the of this slightly, the dynamic of this slightly, if that's all right. talk that's all right. and talk a little bit about about the sun with you, because there was a moment in time in this story which and flowed where which has ebbed and flowed where all of a sudden it looked as though were going though the sun were going to absolutely a second. absolutely cop it for a second. there doubt be meetings there will no doubt be meetings going on there about potential crisis management as well. at some point , crisis management as well. at some point, one would imagine that to put up or that they will have to put up or shut up. and do you think that the is worried about its the sun is worried about its reputation, this ? reputation, all of this? >> oh, very much so. i think on tuesday morning when the bbc came out quite bullish after the after the lawyers saying that

the story was rubbish, it did look like the sun was having a load of questions that they needed to answer themselves. but you fast forward a bit now there's actually four different parties in this and i think you outlined this earlier. you have the bbc who've handled it terribly. you've got the sun who are saying they want to are saying they don't want to reveal they've reveal everything until they've spoken police. spoken to the police. >> the person in >> you've got the person in question and now you've the question and now you've got the police force, the met police, question and now you've got the police fc starting met police, question and now you've got the police fc starting to at police, question and now you've got the police fc starting to get)lice, who are starting to get accusations they are accusations that maybe they are moving with this. moving a bit slowly with this. >> you know, everybody needs closure on the bbc and closure on it. the bbc and the person know, indeed. person in question know, indeed. >> now , there will be an inquest >> now, there will be an inquest into this with the bbc. from what know so, so far, and what we know so, so far, and this is in relation to that first allegation, which is actually also the allegation that may contain elements of criminality to it. as we understand at the moment in relation to age, etcetera. the bbc are saying that they knew about this for two months. yes, they didn't really contact the unnamed presenter. they made. i

mean, the i mean they might as well have tried to send a homing pigeon round to that individual's family's house the way they went about it there. i mean, one email that went unanswered and supposedly one an unanswered and supposedly one an unanswered call. so it's unanswered phone call. so it's not really enough, it, not really enough, is it, really? and people will will draw or there's a draw parallels or there's a world of difference between the allegations. a&e a parallels between previous scandals and what's going on here now and ask whether or lessons have been whether or not lessons have been learned. chance that learned. is there a chance that the emerges looking the bbc just emerges looking like of cesspit here? like a bit of a cesspit here? >> well, i think social media is always going to look like the cesspit, much bbc you cesspit, not so much bbc you know, obviously news know, obviously it's news reporting is respected around the world, but i think what the issue is, is that it's shown itself to be a slow juggernaut. >> again . itself to be a slow juggernaut. >> again. it's itself to be a slow juggernaut. >> again . it's been too too slow >> again. it's been too too slow to respond. we know that when this first happened in may, and we're led to believe that the director general wasn't briefed until last week , well, until last week, well, something's gone wrong there in the communications process, in >> communications process, in the escalation process. >> it's just not worked .

>> it's just not worked. >> it's just not worked. >> it's just not worked. >> it's too slow. and in the modern >> it's too slow. and in the modem 24 hour news media agenda that we've got and in the sort of cesspit of social media, that's just not quick enough . that's just not quick enough. >> andy. andy barr, there , of >> andy. andy barr, there, of course, who is there crisis management specialist. thank you very much for your your wisdom and expertise on this issue . and and expertise on this issue. and there's a fair few people who might need to manage a crisis here, at here, really, aren't there at the i mean, this story the moment. i mean, this story just keeps getting bigger and bigger. there's bigger. does the bbc there's the unnamed but generally unnamed presenter, but generally the think it's the sun, although i think it's really actually genuinely fair to that we've had this to say now that we've had this slew allegations slew of different allegations and comes and whatever, frankly, comes next, i think the sun is next, that i think the sun is looking increasingly like they were right this to the were right to raise this to the pubuc were right to raise this to the public attention . but the public attention. but also the met suspect that's met police and i suspect that's where focus going where the focus is going to shift tomorrow. we don't shift into tomorrow. if we don't hear they are dragging hear anything, they are dragging their danny their feet on this. danny davies, former cop at the davies, former top cop at the met, was on this very show not so ago saying, look, what so long ago saying, look, what on earth are the police playing her? surely be to her? surely they will be able to have and decide have evidence now and decide whether to do anything with it or not. he heard about or not. he never heard about this phrase, was scoping out an

investigation. he doesn't know what means. what that means. vaiews@gbnews.com. what that means. vaieito @gbnews.com. what that means. vaieito finish ws.com. what that means. vaieito finish with m. what that means. vaieito finish with something, going to finish with something, as say, little bit as they say, a little bit different now . a small town in different now. a small town in suffolk has been revealed as the satanist capital of britain. it is fair to say there's a few interesting characters there and i will be talking to not one but potential two of them in just a tick. trust me, you're not to going want to miss this. patrick christys on gb news

presenter , the detectives from presenter, the detectives from the met's specialist crime command have now concluded their assessment . this is the line assessment. this is the line thatis assessment. this is the line that is just coming now. we're going to go shortly to new broadcasting house, where i believe we're going to be able to talk to mark white. mark white, i think is with us at broadcasting house. in fact, he's got her back very quickly for new broadcasting house. he's with me in the studio. mark okay. so the latest breaking news and i will just read it one more time here is that the metropolitan police's specialist command concluded that command have now concluded that their assessment and have determined that there no determined that there is no information to indicate a information to indicate that a criminal have been criminal offence have been committed. mark, more detail, please. >> excuse me just little >> yes. excuse me just a little bit breath as i was bit out of breath as i was running the to be running down the stairs to be with you, but yeah, the metropolitan who have metropolitan police who have been carrying out this scoping exercise , their specialist crime exercise, their specialist crime command , who have carried out command, who have carried out that exercise and they have determined that there is not a

criminal investigation that should be launched. and they have handed it back to the bbc. so this slew of allegations that we were talking about just a little earlier. now the bbc can begin that investigation. and that's that's vital. >> that's vitally important, isn't it? which is that so people are waiting for the metropolitan police to conduct their own scoping exercise. and that appears to have concluded now. so it is now the onus on the bbc. what is interesting, i think, is to just remind ourselves of what some of these allegations are. so the one that i think a lot of people were wondering whether or not it involved any elements of criminality was mainly down to the age of supposedly anyway, one of the people involved in all this, the metropolitan all of this, the metropolitan police, feel though police, clearly feel as though that an issue. that that's not an issue. but a couple the other incidents, couple of the other incidents, alleged would involve alleged incidents, would involve some kind of threatening behaviour somebody behaviour to somebody who threatened to out this individual online on breaking lockdown rules , allegedly. and lockdown rules, allegedly. and also as well, just some what

have been called creepy messages. so there's quite a bit to go here. >> yes. i mean, the allegations all of the other allegations other than the initial allegation, which which followed, a complaint that was made to the bbc on the 18th of may are not being considered by the metropolitan police at this time . they have received no time. they have received no information . they say that information. they say that initial investigation in the scoping exercise relates to a complaint that was made by the mother and stepfather of an individual , mother and stepfather of an individual, people who it's claimed was 17 at the time that the they were paid money to send explicit pictures to this unnamed bbc presenter. since that time , the individual that time, the individual involved , through their lawyers, involved, through their lawyers, have denied the story, although the mother and stepfather stick

to their side of the story. so that was a scoping exercise. now what the metropolitan police have said in reaching the decision today that there is no criminal offence, that they've been able to find is that in reaching this decision, this is their statement. they have spoken to a number of parties, including the bbc and alleged complaints that on the alleged complainants, family obe both via another police force. they say there is no further police action. as such, the matter has advised the bbc that it can continue with its internal investigation. now this is interesting with regard to the sun story that came out sun story that came out overnight and splashed again overnight and splashed again this morning that claimed this this morning that claimed this unnamed presenter , dumas, had unnamed presenter , dumas, had unnamed presenter, dumas, had arranged to meet another unnamed presenter, dumas, had arranged to meet another individual through a dating app individual through a dating app that that the presenter had that that the presenter had travelled to another county travelled to another county dunng. dunng. travelled to another county during . the third lockdown on on travelled to another county during . the third lockdown on on
