outbreaks of rain. but elsewhere , relatively and clear . and , relatively dry and clear. and as i mentioned, under the clear skies, feeling pretty chilly for this the tons of this point in the year. tons of city staying in double figures, but up towards countryside , but up towards the countryside, we lows falling down we could see lows falling down to 5 to 6 degrees. but to around 5 to 6 degrees. but compensation will be for most of us. we'll start the day with some sunshine on wednesday. still area cloud and still this area of cloud and showers parts of southern showers across parts of southern scotland and northern england and continue and that will continue to linger for much the day. but for here much of the day. but elsewhere, i mentioned, elsewhere, as i mentioned, some sunshine. for northern sunshine. but for northern ireland, cloud will thicken as the goes on with some the morning goes on with some rain arriving lunchtime rain arriving here by lunchtime and rain also and the cloud and rain also spreading parts of wales and the cloud and rain also spre southwest parts of wales and the cloud and rain also spre southwest england wales and the cloud and rain also spre southwest england as les and the cloud and rain also spre southwest england as the and southwest england as the afternoon so here we've afternoon goes on. so here we've combined strengthening combined with a strengthening wind chilly as wind feeling pretty chilly as the afternoon moon moves but the afternoon moon moves in. but elsewhere in the sunshine , not elsewhere in the sunshine, not feeling for the time of feeling too bad for the time of year with temperatures around average . and then we go into average. and then as we go into thursday, this band of rain will sweep its way across the uk , sweep its way across the uk, bringing further spells of showers behind it and temperatures all the time near average .

radio show. >> welcome back to headliners, your first look at wednesday's newspapers . and we're going newspapers. and we're going straight into the guardian . and straight into the guardian. and what's this about the war on drugs ? i thought that was the drugs? i thought that was the 80s. yeah 80s. what's this? yeah >> get tough with >> so us dates get tough with war on drugs era laws to tackle the fentanyl crisis . so fentanyl the fentanyl crisis. so fentanyl is killing a huge amount of people in america. >> 70,000 a year. >> i believe. last month they captured enough of the drug to actually kill everyone in america . america. >> yeah, and it's not it hasn't previously been getting that much attention , but it's because much attention, but it's because what's happening is the drug cartels, mexican mostly are sort of cutting it makes cocaine and various other drugs stronger. >> yes .

>> yes. >> yes. >> but you can already because it's so powerful. >> so now they're implementing these laws like anybody who deau these laws like anybody who dealt it , these laws like anybody who dealt it, smelt it, and basically it's going to jail as well. >> but the thing about this is these war on drugs in its various iterations, it never seems to get anywhere. well that's exactly we don't know how many drugs we'd taking if many drugs we'd be taking if there wasn't war drugs. there wasn't a war on drugs. >> andrew, you might have to limit your intake . limit your intake. >> i see. so it might be even more intake . well, yeah, people more intake. well, yeah, people are criticising who it's attacking because just like. >> and it proved just >> and it proved that just getting the street dealers and in this case it's not even dealers. >> it's like someone getting doing it with their friend and then their friend ods and they survive. it's you've got to go for the actual source, which is these mexican cartels. >> but it's not just the mexican cartels. i mean, the mexico has been made whipping boy for the been made a whipping boy for the for this fentanyl crisis . but for this fentanyl crisis. but the precursor chemicals are coming from china. and china is deaung coming from china. and china is dealing separately, sending these these chemicals used to

send them direct to america . send them direct to america. they want to weaken america. this is a soft war and this is killing i mean, this is killing hundreds of thousands of is there case for a sort of there not a case for a sort of decriminalisation or going or, you effectively, you know, making it effectively, effectively wiping out the drug trade saying we trade by saying that, well, we can provide it legally. they've already that with oxycontin already got that with oxycontin and mean, and other opiates. i mean, really, has this really, america just has this culture taking lots of culture of taking lots of opiates. i mean, you can get oxycodone and other other types of legal opiates quite, quite easily pharmacies. easily from pharmacies. >> there's another further >> so there's another further slightly interesting angle, which that republicans are which is that republicans are now about attacking mex now talking about attacking mex co directly and that could have big ramifications. >> military . >> military. >> military. >> yeah, military like saying seeing them as terrorists , drug seeing them as terrorists, drug dealers now as actual terrorists and going in and certainly parts of mexico as though the drug dealers are sanctioned by the mexican government. well, that's the thing. runs so deep. if the thing. it runs so deep. if you've seen narcos, you're i've i i've seen breaking i haven't i've seen breaking bad, so i okay. well it bad, so i know. okay. well it does that right. does go to that level. right. and are parts of and also, there are parts of mexico which the government just

isn't part of anymore. >> okay. well, sticking with the guardian america, guardian and with america, something they do really something else they do really well, violence. something else they do really well, anger)lence. something else they do really well, anger and:e. something else they do really well, anger and radicalisation >> so anger and radicalisation in a rising number of americans say that political violence is justified . and this is on both justified. and this is on both the left and the right. so they're saying a lot of this is due to trump's indictment. they see trump as this sort of oppressed and oppress political dissident. and that's radicalising his base . but this radicalising his base. but this this university of chicago professor robert pape says you're seeing growing anger and radicalisation on the left as well . yeah, i know. usa spent well. yeah, i know. usa spent like a year on fire because of blm and antifa riots, which are which are they were peaceful fires. >> they weren't . they were riots >> they weren't. they were riots of compassion , huge numbers of of compassion, huge numbers of deaths. >> and deaths. i mean, for all that they were supposed to be protesting for racial tolerance, there spikes in the deaths of black people, which is terrible. >> i mean, i think it predates that. there were some very

troubling studies on university campuses saying that lot of campuses saying that a lot of left students were left leaning students were saying and, know, saying that words and, you know, violence form violence is an acceptable form of against mean of self—defence against mean words , against speakers with words, against speakers with wrong this is wrong opinions. this is something that's a real something that's that's a real problem course, the problem because of course, the right are going to react. well, it's and it's it's a problem and it's a problem getting worse. problem that's getting worse. >> says, it's the >> and as leo says, it's the left problem. left left and right problem. the left are particularly about are saying particularly about freedom of being pro—choice. yes that seems to be the issue that they're saying that it's okay, they're saying that it's okay, they're saying that it's okay, they're saying to make the government do right thing . government do the right thing. yes. just kill babies. yes. it's just kill babies. >> we've got to kill people. is that their slogan? >> that seems to it a bit crazy. >> i think sometimes you see sort of left leaning commentators, guardian commentators, guardian commentators, saying commentators, sort of saying that sometimes political violence get violence is necessary to get what want. but as soon as what you want. but as soon as you that, then the other you justify that, then the other side too. side are going to do it too. yeah you just get back yeah you just have to get back to and the other to civil discourse and the other thing interesting thing that's interesting is about these charges about how all these charges against are seemingly against trump are seemingly backfiring and radicalising backfiring and is radicalising people like there's a marked increase of people sort of seeing him as what biden should have done is bring everybody in

under and make sure under his umbrella and make sure that everybody to, that everybody is listened to, but actually being that everybody is listened to, b1really actually being that everybody is listened to, b1really divisive actually being that everybody is listened to, b1really divisive president.)eing a really divisive president. yeah, he has. well, yeah, he has. okay. well, we're going wednesday's going to move on to wednesday's times josh lord frost times next. and josh lord frost is about being lord is excited about being lord toasty and lord frost claims rising temperatures will help britain. >> so this is just a great way of dealing with climate change. >> it just be like, yeah , you >> it just be like, yeah, you know what? >> it's not going to affect us that badly. >> his argument that because >> his argument is that because more the winter, more people die in the winter, eight times more, i think it is than than the summer than actually let's get a bit warmer. >> and that's going to save people's lives. >> but it's not sunburn we're worried about is no worried about here, is it? no it's not. >> there's other >> and there's a bunch of other things. has been dying from things. what has been dying from sunburn summer? well, sunburn in the summer? well, there has there are more people has increased. sunburn but increased. not sunburn but people. but they do die. >> they from their >> they do die from their country going the sea. country going under the sea. >> yeah, well, that country isn't britain, so. >> not. >> no, it's not. >> yet. >> no, not yet. >> no, not yet. >> but it. well, so these countries under the water. >> i mean, myth that sea >> i mean, it's a myth that sea levels are, you know, we've got this catastrophic rise in sea levels. at all the levels. if you look at all the people oh my god,

people who say, oh my god, climate change, we're going climate change, we're all going to underwater, all to be underwater, they're all buying shoreline buying houses at the shoreline like these people, like a bama. all these people, they buy houses so they can have a sea view. they don't a nice sea view. they don't believe that the sea going to rise. >> you don't think? >> you don't think? >> no, and ridiculous. >> no, no. and it's ridiculous. and should we say and it's i mean, should we say for that the sea for ofcom reasons that the sea is rising? >> no, wait a minute. well, look, there been cases look, there have been some cases where risen and where the sea has risen and people have been displaced. i mean, lot. mean, that's happened a lot. that's record. where? that's on record. like where? i don't an expert, don't know. i'm not an expert, but i've read articles about it. they can't just be making up. but i've read articles about it. theyeah,tjust be making up. but i've read articles about it. theyeah, t qu be making up. but i've read articles about it. theyeah,tqumean,1king up. but i've read articles about it. theyeah,tqu mean, like up. but i've read articles about it. theyeah,tqu mean, like maybe >> yeah, no, i mean, like maybe if a really low if you got, like, a really low lying atoll, then, yeah, lying bikini atoll, then, yeah, maybe. also some maybe. and also some land generally land is generally tends to sink. land is always shifting. so, you know, we don't we don't know. but i mean, the thing about people dying , the dying fossil fuels, the exploitation of fossil fuels is to incredible advances in to led incredible advances in longevity and health and wealth and living standards like the protein we eat, the transport, everything , everything that we everything, everything that we have, the heat. >> even if you think that, leo, don't you think lord frost's approach is a weird way to tackle that, to make that point,

he's providing the other side of the argument. >> he's saying it's not all it's not all one sided. >> he's saying we could be it would to be a bit would help us to be a bit hotter. that's basically what he's would help britain to >> it would help britain to be a bit hotter people die in bit hotter because people die in the cold. bit hotter because people die in the yeah, cold. bit hotter because people die in the yeah, but cold. bit hotter because people die in the yeah, but of cold. bit hotter because people die in the yeah, but of course,i. bit hotter because people die in the yeah, but of course, the >> yeah, but of course, the other factors is that around the sort of equator where where you'd droughts you'd see increased droughts and whatnot, going to whatnot, then you're going to see and then that see the migration and then that arguably we are equator arguably we are the equator doesn't really heat much. arguably we are the equator doe it's really heat much. arguably we are the equator doe it's mostlyheat much. arguably we are the equator doe it's mostly like much. arguably we are the equator doe it's mostly like stays nuch. arguably we are the equator doe it's mostly like stays with. >> it's mostly like stays with the point is that it's going to lead to more migration in well we are making better wine in england thanks climate england now thanks to climate change go. change there we go. >> there go. it's nice >> so there you go. it's nice wine. the male now tai wine. so the male now with tai chi, but not for thee. leo so king's college london is fighting a race row after white lecturers feel segreg migrated from free tai chi classes put on which ironically are put on to tackle the chronic stress triggered by racism and systemic oppression. >> so this man will advertise the event as being for staff who identify as black or people of colour or global majority identify as .

identify as. >> yeah. so they don't have to be black. yeah >> but i don't think you can just turn like justin trudeau just turn up like justin trudeau if identify as black, if they say identify as black, then going there then i'm going to go in there and black. no, i think and say i'm black. no, i think you teach some chi, you you teach me some tai chi, you get but i mean, yeah, get fired. but i mean, yeah, it's ridiculous. so they're tackling racism with like tackling racism with racism like the fight fire with the old saying, fight fire with fire, racism more racism. >> what's phrase they're >> what's this phrase they're using identifies black using as well? identifies black people of or global people of colour or global majorities? majority is majorities? global majority is the fact that most people in the world aren't white only. >> i think 12% of global >> i think 12% of the global population is. >> i think 12% of the global popbut ion is. >> i think 12% of the global popbut ifn is. >> i think 12% of the global popbut if you're arguing for >> but if you're arguing for systemic oppression, doesn't it help refer to help your cause to refer to these minorities, not these people as minorities, not majorities ? majorities? >> got to change the >> oh, they've got to change the word four weeks. word every four weeks. >> oh, yeah, that's right. >> oh, yeah, that's right. >> there's got to, you know, >> so there's got to, you know, people of colour bipoc bame, they've change now they've got to change it. so now it's global next week. it's global majority next week. so people consider so people who don't consider themselves white well. themselves to be white as well. >> it's like the flip side of >> so it's like the flip side of it. >> doing all it. doing all right. >> i'm doing all right. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> ty >> yeah. >>.ty tai fl- h— h tai chi is the slow >> so ty and tai chi is the slow motion martial arts. >> relaxing >> yeah. it's like a relaxing thing and whatever, i think thing and whatever, but i think it's because what it's really unfair because what about, committing of about, like, committing sort of systematic oppression can be

very stressful. i believe . yes. very stressful. i believe. yes. >> so don't they deserve to be able to relax as well? >> yes. more equality? >> exactly. yes. more equality? absolutely. going to absolutely. well, we're going to go on to the mail now , josh, go on to the mail now, josh, with about what happens with a story about what happens when two religions meet . when two religions meet. >> indeed, pope francis, 86, just so they could just chuck it in there. >> yeah. tells yep. tells young transgender worshipper god loves us as we are and this is quite interesting. so he's doing a podcast because even the pope has a podcast now and really it's competing with nick's . it's competing with nick's. yeah. and yeah , he was asked yeah. and yeah, he was asked some questions and someone , some questions and someone, someone asked him how they're tormenting that dichotomy of their love of the catholic faith and their transgender identity. >> and his answer was , the god >> and his answer was, the god loves us as we are . loves us as we are. >> loves us as we are. >> you could read that in two ways. >> well, that's what i'm thinking is like, is he basically saying, don't cut off your bits ? yes. yeah. because your bits? yes. yeah. because god just loves who you are. god just loves you. who you are. yes. is he saying, well, yes. or is he saying, well, i think that's what he's saying, but that sounds like it to me.
