the politics out of banking or perhaps even launch a woke free bank of nigel? well let's have a look at what nigel thinks needs to happen as natwest and in the banking sector. he said this earlier leads to a point. >> a new temporary board to take control of this bank. and then what we need do , you know, what we need to do, you know, starting early in the starting very early in the autumn, is to start to put in place that says place legislation that says banks cannot and must not discriminate against individual customers. and then we need to address the money laundering regulations that effectively have become a sledgehammer to miss the nut . have become a sledgehammer to miss the nut. it's the have become a sledgehammer to miss the nut . it's the innocent miss the nut. it's the innocent that are getting hurt whilst the big time crooks still get away with it. so nigel has said early today that he wants to be a champion and a crusader of the banking sector. >> he wants cultural and legal changes. the bank of nigel not as mad as we as we might think. arron but let's start with you. somebody from the political left long argued for an overhaul of the banking system, but i'm

assuming you wouldn't bank with nigel. >> well, i wouldn't. i wouldn't not bank with nigel farage. you know, interesting because know, it's interesting because i'm obviously coming to this from the left and karl marx 150 years ago made the comment that capitalism was an improvement over feudalism because what he called the money form made everybody equal . and victor everybody equal. and victor hugo, i'm sure your audience might know that gentleman said money doesn't smell. the point was this was incredibly was this was an incredibly equalising force. doesn't care what gender you are, what your views are , how old you are, if views are, how old you are, if you've got the money, you can bank with us. that's how capitalism has worked for a very long time. and people have said, are we going woke are we going into woke capitalism? rates capitalism? i think given rates of inequality, we're actually looking feudalism. looking at woke feudalism. that's of our that's the future of our economic in immediate economic system in immediate answer to what you said in regards to a new bank, i would love to people's bank look love to see a people's bank look a bit like old post office a bit like the old post office bank, operates as a bank, which operates as a kind of a last for people who of a last resort for people who are banked elsewhere, including their business accounts, which is was the problem mr is what was the problem with mr farage? i'd also wanted to provide finance and

provide finance to small and medium sized enterprises across the a way let's the country in a way that, let's be frank, the boys don't do be frank, the big boys don't do any more. yeah the funny thing about that is that the bank of dave launched in 2011, the bank of dave was started by a businessman in burnley called dave fishwick, working class dave fishwick, a working class self—made who set up self—made millionaire who set up a local bank for precisely that reason. >> if local lads and ladies were getting turned away by the big banks, he started his own bank to give those out. now i'm to give those loans out. now i'm saying you, david, we've saying to you, david, what we've seen recently, what with pride pronouns , climate change, gender pronouns, climate change, gender politics, racism, sexism , politics, racism, sexism, stonewall in banks , you know, we stonewall in banks, you know, we can all agree maybe it's time to kick that stuff out of banking. but is the answer some sort of private equity, not just a state attempt this, but a private attempt like this, but a private attempt, a conservative bank free of politics? would that be popular? >> yeah, well, there's lots of things to say about that. i mean, i went to the bank this morning and the first thing i saw on the machine was the pride progress flag. you know, i'd call something else,

call it something else, but i really don't want to see that when i go in to do my banking, i think people are crying out to get of this stuff. people get rid of this stuff. people just this wokery when they just hate this wokery when they go bank, they the go into a bank, they want the banks to be about looking after your what they your money, which is what they were ten years ago or so. so the thing is, it's a wider question. we have cultural marxism embedded our embedded in all of our institutions now. this is the long the long march through the institutions been institutions that has been happening since 60s. it happening since the 60s. it started with education institutions, political and institutions, then political and media institutions. now it's got to the banking institutions. so they are fully on board with the equality , diversity and equality, diversity and inclusion agenda . but the thing inclusion agenda. but the thing is, it's not inclusive to people like nigel farage and thousands of other people who don't have the right view. so i would support a bank that says we are not going to follow the equality , diversity, inclusion and environmental social governance, esg and programme that they've got going on. we need something like that. >> and the second time we've mentioned karl marx in a show,

probably the first time ever on gb sharp intake of gb news, a sharp intake of breath david said, we have breath when david said, we have cultural marxism in banks, we should that. should take on that. >> i don't agree with >> well, i don't agree with that. this is that. i just think this is liberalism. is liberalism liberalism. this is liberalism as always been. let's as it's always been. and let's let's marx a third let's let's mention marx a third time. said he said that time. he said he said that capitalism, what it is it capitalism, what it does is it turns all that is holy, profane, all is solid melts into all that is solid melts into air, is to say that it air, which is to say that it really all the really disintegrates all the social people take social mores that people take for granted. and it's the reason why never understood why why i've never understood why social conservatives don't actually thinking a actually take his thinking a little seriously. little bit more seriously. i would is liberalism. would say this is liberalism. quickly, your audience probably haven't night. haven't heard this last night. rachel by rachel reeves was interviewed by channel 4. never went out. channel 4. it never went out. she what's happening channel 4. it never went out. shthe what's happening channel 4. it never went out. shthe former what's happening channel 4. it never went out. shthe former now t's happening channel 4. it never went out. shthe former now ceo appening channel 4. it never went out. shthe former now ceo of)ening channel 4. it never went out. shthe former now ceo of natwest to the former now ceo of natwest as bullying. yeah. because as bullying. yeah. why? because she first ceo of she was the first female ceo of natwest. let's look at this natwest. so let's look at this logically . if a woman is the ceo logically. if a woman is the ceo of a bank, you can be banked. if a man is a ceo, you can't be. this is this is identity politics. liberalism gone completely insane ? i don't think completely insane? i don't think it's got anything to do with marxism. >> yeah. fair. and why do you think this kind of gender think that this kind of gender identity politic wokeism for

want of a better word, has impregnated not just banks, but all of our public bodies? where did it come from? and can it ever be kicked out or is it now here to stay? >> well, i do disagree you, >> well, i do disagree with you, aaron. some of the aaron. i mean, some of the things i do, but this is cultural marxism and this is one of the ideas of cultural marxism. and what that basically says is that society is institutionally sexist, racist , institutionally sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic . and homophobic, transphobic. and then it needs to be deliberately changed to overcome those fabricated injustices that people have, like said, that exist, which don't exist. so you have there are you know, people say that society is inherently misogynist . misogynist. >> nick where's that marx though? i understand people say i understand cultural marxism , i understand cultural marxism, which comes later on from the frankfurt school and from gramsci in the 1920. >> marxism. gramsci in the 1920. >> if arxism. gramsci in the 1920. >> if it'ssm. gramsci in the 1920. >> if it's got nothing to do with it, it's cultural marxism. >> so it's marxism is economic. of course, it looks at the working class of the victims and the oppressors are the

capitalists. that's marxism. and cultural marxism then sets up new to oppressor victim narratives based on those new groups of people that i've just mentioned. so they say society is inherently transphobic, for example. so we need to change it and change the laws in order to recognise gender fluidity. >> for example, i want to put it to you, aaron. why did when did it become fashionable for people on the political left to take sides with banks coutts sides with banks like coutts where you have to have £1 million to start an account and why won't the labour party ? keir why won't the labour party? keir starmer been absolutely starmer has been absolutely silent on this. why won't starmer actually i think do the right thing, say, look, right thing, just say, look, i completely with nigel right thing, just say, look, i comple'but with nigel right thing, just say, look, i comple'but what's with nigel right thing, just say, look, i comple'but what's happenediel right thing, just say, look, i comple'but what's happened to farage, but what's happened to him is unacceptable, because if they come first, it could they come farage first, it could be someone from the left next. >> probably >> well, someone probably wouldn't not wouldn't mind because he's not really he would really from the left. he would say, centre. if the say, i'm from the centre. if the political extremes punished political extremes get punished by it. to be fair to by this, so be it. to be fair to him, he did say that this morning. it took a long time, but did say that. and you're but he did say that. and you're very to point this out,

very right to point this out, martin. look, in 2008, the public, british public, the great british public, the great british public, bailed public, the taxpayer bailed out the of this the the banks of this country. the idea that very same idea that those very same institutions foreclose the institutions can foreclose the possibility british subject institutions can foreclose the po be )ility british subject institutions can foreclose the po be able british subject institutions can foreclose the po be able access;h subject institutions can foreclose the po be able access business to be able to access business banking. case of nigel banking. in the case of nigel farage absolutely farage is absolutely extraordinary . and personally extraordinary. and i personally would somebody would have thought that somebody from that it's 101in from the left that it's 101in terms of our politics, that you don't happen. and don't let that happen. and hopefully is a signal hopefully this is a signal moment to say that, look, we're progressives, the left, progressives, we're on the left, we're side the little we're on the side of the little person, multinational banks. person, not multinational banks. >> been >> well, they haven't been taking though, taking that position, though, so far, they, david, to far, have they, david, want to put it you, does this expose put it to you, does this expose the further remainer the further kind of remainer chumocracy we see in big chumocracy that we see in big business and of course, leaks straight the bbc who swallow straight to the bbc who swallow it like a kipper regurgitated of the an the story, proven to be an incorrect version of events . but incorrect version of events. but they didn't use bbc verify . they they didn't use bbc verify. they didn't fact check it. what does that say to us about the propensity to believe this stuff? because they want it to be true. >> yeah mean, betrue. >>veah >> yeah, i mean, that's part of the isn't it? i mean, the the mix, isn't it? i mean, the people who in the people who are in the establishment they hate establishment here, they hate anyone wanted to leave the anyone who wanted to leave the european union, was for

european union, who was for brexit as they are brexit the same as they are against who doesn't agree against anyone who doesn't agree with the climate narrative or the trans narrative. it's all mixed together these kind mixed in together as these kind of intersectional narratives and things they want to push on things that they want to push on society. so, you know, i think most of the people in the upper echelons of the establishment want actually really at heart want actually really at heart want to go back into the eu so they would in any way possible punish someone who has that viewpoint and actually got us out of the eu. i mean, that's that's definitely part of the mix. >> and do you think, aaron, that's a fair assumption to make now that banks, which ought by any measurable metric, be politically neutral , are politically neutral, are actually not only politically in terms of the gender, the climate , but there's hard political pro—remain anti—brexit it that's what this is about. well i would syphon off the point about climate because they think that's an opportunity to make money. >> i presume that's the narrative anyway, although debunking people is to going lose you money as their business. would park business. so it's i would park that for moment the

that just for a moment for the for point of clarity. maybe for the point of clarity. maybe we disagree, think we can disagree, but i think it's a little bit different. i think as a society, everybody wants to be a superhero now in our dont wants to be a superhero now in our don't they? our culture, don't they? they want their job is want to feel like their job is changing world and actually changing the world and actually providing just safe, decent retail banking services as where there's not a massive margin between and the between the base rate and the savings rate that's being offered to everyday brits out there. heaven forbid that happens. that there. heaven forbid that happens . that itself there. heaven forbid that happens. that itself is happens. that in itself is a very noble endeavour. but instead, a culture, we've instead, as a culture, we've tied kinds other things tied all kinds of other things to well, my job has meaning to it. well, my job has meaning because i do x, y, z. i'm on the side of the goodies. i'm stopping the baddies. life isn't a offer. good a marvel movie offer. good banking everyday banking products to everyday people regardless of what they think. go back to a think. let's go back to a sensible banking system here to that. >> and part of the issue, of course, is the policy has become so polarised. and i believe, aaron, you had an unfortunate incident happened you incident happened to you recently. happened? we recently. what happened? we can't it with us. can't share it with us. >> yeah, i'll happily share it. i i tweeted about this and i was i tweeted about this and it got a lot of attention. i was walking of my house as walking out of my house as somebody they

somebody recognised me as they walked past, said my name. walked past, they said my name. they . fortunately, they clobbered me. fortunately, i could deal with the i could i could deal with the gentleman. he was pacified a stand, helped me. the stand, a bypass helped me. the police came along, he was processed. but i just find it extraordinary, you know. martin if it's 11:00 on a friday night, if it's11:00 on a friday night, somebody said a few beers. you understand it? obviously, i'm not but you not never acceptable. but you understand all over not never acceptable. but you undcountry. all over not never acceptable. but you undcountry. but all over not never acceptable. but you undcountry. but middayll over not never acceptable. but you undcountry. but midday on ver not never acceptable. but you undcountry. but midday on aer the country. but midday on a tuesday afternoon to be on your own street and punched in the face by a complete stranger, i cannot get my head around that. and i sadly think that's the direction of too much political debate in this country. >> yeah, would just like to >> yeah, i would just like to say that i condemn anything of that nature. you've been that nature. you've always been a sort guest and a fantastic sort of guest and a great lad, and we disagree on many things. we agree on many things. if you get to the things. but if you get to the stage having pop stage where you're having a pop at people, you're having a physical dig that is a step too far. good thing. and far. it's not a good thing. and don't be the exact thing that we're accused of ourselves. let's do that sort of let's just not do that sort of stuff. hope you're all stuff. so i hope you're all right, cheers. right. right, jen. cheers. all right. cheers add before we

cheers anything to add before we move cheers anything to add before we mole cheers anything to add before we moi would agree with aaron, >> i would agree with aaron, actually. the banks should be just about banking they actually. the banks should be just ab

radio. and welcome back to dewbs & co and welcome back to dewbs& co with me, martin daubney keep me company until 7 pm.

>> leader of the heritage party, david kirton and co—founder of novara media, aaron bastani . our novara media, aaron bastani. our next story now, a shocking new report has shown that 20 people are chasing every rental property that comes onto the market in britain. according to rightmove , the average number of rightmove, the average number of requests to view homes has more than tripled since 2019. now, with net annual immigration soaring to 606,000 and nimbyism blocking housebuilding and leafy remainer suburbs has liberal politics shafted generation rent? let's have a quick go with you, david. so we have a double edged sword here. we have more people than ever coming in. we have a city the size of manchester every year coming in and yet house building is at levels of the 1950s. is there any wonder people can't find somewhere to live or if they can, they're paying through the hose. >> nose. >> you can't separate the housing crisis from mass rapid immigration that we've had over the last 20 years. i mean, over

that period, we've built about 4 million houses in the country , million houses in the country, but there's been 8 million people coming into the country . people coming into the country. we, as well as natural population growth , it's just population growth, it's just simply not enough to cope with the number of people coming. and those are the people we know about. it doesn't include the people that we know about people that we don't know about who the back of who come over on the back of a lorry, for example, then lorry, for example, and then disappear black disappear into the black economy. there's many, many economy. so there's many, many more people than are in the official to solve official statistics. so to solve the housing crisis, the number one thing is we got to get a grip of immigration , ian, grip of immigration, ian, because you're never going to solve it when you're keeping on having more more people having more and more people coming country. and having more and more people com year, country. and having more and more people com year, as country. and having more and more people com year, as you:ountry. and having more and more people com year, as you said,y. and having more and more people com year, as you said, 606,000 last year, as you said, 606,000 net. it'sjust last year, as you said, 606,000 net. it's just a disaster for people who want to buy a house aaron. >> is simply a case of >> is this simply a case of supply and demand or is it the same kind of people who say refugees welcome are saying, not in my backyard, don't build any houses, put dump them into inner cities where i don't live. it's a liberal middle class issue that becomes a working class

problem. >> well, it's important to say most people who seek political asylum in this country, they actually to in actually prefer to live in larger people larger cities because people from communities, larger cities because people from shared 1unities, larger cities because people from shared languages, backgrounds, shared languages, tend in areas. park tend to be in those areas. park that i mean, i would just go back what said about back to what david said about the population growth 606,000 back to what david said about the increase on growth 606,000 back to what david said about the increase in growth 606,000 back to what david said about the increase in population»,000 back to what david said about the increase in population is00 net increase in population is too much. i you see the too much. i think you see the polling this. even polling on this. even a plurality of remainers think it's too high. what i would say, however, is that you can have population growth and meet demand. if you demand. so for instance, if you look i from look at britain, i think from 18, 18405 the look at britain, i think from 18, 1840s the early 1900s, we 18, 1840s to the early 1900s, we have a sort of tripling of population country . we population in this country. we also a hell lot of also built a hell of a lot of infrastructure houses. the bakerloo underground bakerloo line, the underground and supply for the and the water supply for the sewage systems across much of the country. that was with breakneck population growth. so i feel you're letting the political elite off the hook. if you say we can't build anything anymore in this country because there are too many people coming over now, you can still maintain that. you may be correct, that. and you may be correct, you're entitled to that view. but feel that what we're but i feel that what we're looking more as looking at more broadly as a country is have a complete

country is we have a complete inability stuff, do inability to build stuff, to do stuff, partly nimbyism and partly are political partly there are political class. longer thinks class. no longer thinks particularly as particularly big, partly as well. i think because we've got first past the post that you just basically two parties. just have basically two parties. if one says something, the other one to disagree. whereas the one has to disagree. whereas the 19505 consensus and 19505 there was a consensus and in too, it should be in the 305 too, it should be said actually build a hell said actually to build a hell of a lot of really quickly. a lot of houses really quickly. hopefully go back to hopefully we go back to that because think quite clear because i think it's quite clear now british public this now with the british public this is for renters is a major problem for renters generation rents getting bigger is a major problem for renters gen

parents with 4 or 5 kids renting, i can't imagine renting with children with one with 4 or 5 children with one child, frankly, and being worried. going have to worried. you're going to have to get fault eviction and you get a no fault eviction and you have move out every 12 have to move out every 12 months, 18 months. you months, every 18 months. you have find gp, maybe have to find a new gp, maybe find even a new school. well, what to carry on. so what a crazy way to carry on. so i would have a long, longer tenancy. >> david isn't the issue >> david isn't part of the issue when is £7 million a day on hotels for asylum seekers? £4 billion a year on that. it's simply a case of a lack of political will. >> yeah, absolutely. and i think that the government and the labour opposition as want labour opposition as well want mass immigration . they want more mass immigration. they want more people to coming into the people to be coming into the country some businesses country because some businesses also though who are attached to the want a cheap labour. the parties want a cheap labour. i mean, i don't understand why they're letting 50,000 people cross the channel every year, most of whom are going into hotels and in the barge in dorset and then basically taking benefits. and so on. there's no benefits. and so on. there's no benefit to that to the country at all. but that is part of the issue. and it's also feeds into

immigration. but i would sort of question and challenge . one of question and challenge. one of the things you said, aaron, about rapid population growth in the 19th century in 1800, it was 20 million. in 1900. it was 40 million. in 2000 it was 60 million. in 2000 it was 60 million. so there's been a population growth over that 200 year period of about 10 million per 50 years or in the last penod per 50 years or in the last period we've had 10,000,000 in 20 years. so population growth has rapidly, entirely accurate because that is accurate and thatis because that is accurate and that is looking at statistics because you're including ireland, which leads the ireland in 1916. yes, it's very small . okay. >> it doesn't no, it wasn't actually in relatively in terms of population in the 1830, its population was half the size of england. there was something called the irish famine. so no, i think it's useful to look at this trajectory after the 18405, which i said, 1840 to which is what i said, 1840 to 1900, you see a massive increase in country in population in this country and that is when we build all of the infrastructure the major infrastructure for that granted. so that we take for granted. so i take point. i don't think

take your point. i don't think that's entirely right. i think you're a little bit misrepresentative there. >> what i'm saying is we >> no, what i'm saying is we can't we can't rate of population growth is far greater at moment in these last 20 years. >> present rate. absolutely >> present rate. absolutely >> then it's greater than ever before in history. so yeah. so we simply see it's we just simply see it's impossible to build the number of need for the of houses that we need for the population is population growth, which is largely immigration. largely fuelled by immigration. but you know, i would say as well, i am not for building loads and loads of houses in the countryside. i think we need to look after our towns and cities and our countryside and that's very, to everybody very, very precious to everybody in the country. we need to look after things. after those things. >> that's nimbyism. so >> okay, so that's nimbyism. so if can't if we can't build if we can't do if we can't build in those backyards, which is part problem, where do part of the problem, where do these go ? these houses go? >> need to control our >> well, we need to control our borders to there's borders and we need to there's no reason why need mass rapid no reason why we need mass rapid immigration leading into a mass rapid population growth. this has been government policy since blair right through to sunak. >> but if we stopped immigration today, which we won't do because we don't have the political

spine to do it. even if we spine to do it. but even if we did, we're still in the north—west in manchester and towns like cities like towns like that, cities like that. we're still seeing 30 people all going for every house. so close on the borders. we may we may agree on that, but it won't solve the problem of 30 people trying get one gaff also. >> exactly . martin also, david, >> exactly. martin also, david, i believe in big families. i want bigger families. if people start to have more children and you had just an increase in population purely purely as a function we in function of that, like we did in the century, would need the 19th century, we would need to more homes. we would do to build more homes. we would do so think you're trying have so i think you're trying to have your it because your cake and eat it because you're trying to say something which is very popular to bring down immigration. you're which is very popular to bring dowrtrying gration. you're which is very popular to bring dowrtrying to dim. you're which is very popular to bring dowrtrying to say. you're which is very popular to bring dowrtrying to say somethinge also trying to say something which very popular. which is also very popular. don't any the don't build any homes. the problem second one is problem is that second one is definitely of the definitely not part of the solution. have build more solution. we have to build more homes the idea that, oh, homes and the idea that, oh, the population increase if population will only increase if we immigration, well, we we have immigration, well, we need to increase need the population to increase somewhat to ideally somewhat with regards to ideally domestic births because we have an population. an ageing population. the last thing today we're thing we want is today we're a country of 68 million people, average is 40. last

average age is 40. the last thing you is 68 million thing you want is 68 million people. age of 65, people. average age of 65, because won't enough because we won't have enough working pay for working age people to pay for the so i think the pensioners. so i think you're a little bit you're being a little bit intellectual. you're being a little bit intethetual. fertility fertility >> the total fertility fertility rate at the moment is well, well below replacement rate. it's down something like below replacement rate. it's down even something like below replacement rate. it's down even if something like below replacement rate. it's down even if you ething like below replacement rate. it's down even if you bringi like below replacement rate. it's down even if you bring the; that. even if you bring the total fertility rate up to 2.1, we would then a stable we would then have a stable population. any population. we wouldn't need any more if we didn't population. we wouldn't need any more any if we didn't population. we wouldn't need any more any immigration.3 didn't population. we wouldn't need any more any immigration. ididn't population. we wouldn't need any more any immigration. i think have any immigration. i think that's the solution. >> okay, gentlemen , that was >> okay, gentlemen, that was a superb debate, getting very heated. let's do what we always do when things do in britain when things got a bit take a quick bit heated. let's take a quick look the weather. look at the weather. >> that warm feeling inside from boxt boilers is proud sponsors of weather on gb news. hello there. >> welcome to gb news. weather forecast . i'm >> welcome to gb news. weather forecast. i'm craig >> welcome to gb news. weather forecast . i'm craig snell. well, forecast. i'm craig snell. well, looking ahead to thursday, for most of us it's going to be fairly cloudy. some outbreaks of rain, too. but if you live in central and eastern parts, it will fairly humid. so will feel fairly humid. so here's the situation as we end wednesday. a huge area of wednesday. got a huge area of low pressure really dominating proceedings weather fronts, proceedings and weather fronts,

mobile phone use was linked to reduced educational attainment and negative effects on a child's emotional stability. and as britain's strictest headteacher, katharine birbalsingh king once told me, all the problems start on smartphones . so surely kicking smartphones. so surely kicking mobile phones out of classrooms is a step in the right direction. david let's start with you. it's not often the united nations says something sensible these days, but i think they might be on the message here. you think? that's here. what do you think? that's absolutely right. >> i don't agree with them too much. but you know, much. all unesco. but you know, i a teacher 17 years i was a teacher for 17 years before got into politics. and before i got into politics. and they're absolutely right. and this mean, there's this this issue, i mean, there's no you shouldn't no question you shouldn't have smartphones the smartphones in classrooms. the pupils and pupils should not have them. and i further than that. i would go further than that. i would say they shouldn't have them in general on their person would say they shouldn't have th

times, they actually see, you know, socialise with other know, socialise with each other properly, beings properly, like normal beings face face and do things that face to face and do things that are very beneficial their are very beneficial to their emotional development, like playing board games and things like than sitting like that, rather than sitting flicking on their phones all day and point, and that interesting point, aaron, the guys who make aaron, is that the guys who make these phones , you know, bill these phones, you know, bill gates and steve jobs at apple , gates and steve jobs at apple, they wouldn't let their their kids have smart phones until they were 17. >> do you think they were >> why do you think they were doing that? is that because they know how addictive these things are? know how addictive these things are precisely. precisely. that's >> precisely. precisely. that's exactly it's very exactly right. and it's a very astute observation, isn't it? these multinational these huge multinational trillion companies, the trillion dollar companies, the people at the top are very smart. they know precisely what's going on with them. just to build on what david said, i mean, think should mean, i think these should be banned schools. i think a banned in schools. i think a child under 11 shouldn't be able to hold of a mobile phone or to get hold of a mobile phone or smart a dumb phone, smart if they want a dumb phone, you know, like a nokia 32, ten, like back in the day, knock yourselves dad can yourselves out. mum and dad can stay with you. and stay in touch with you. and i would also say there should be time the amount of time limits on the amount of

time limits on the amount of time on certain time they can spend on certain sites there are china. sites like there are in china. now, i know audience. now, i know your audience. i think oh, my god. well, think china. oh, my god. well, actually, you know what? i think it's quite good the state it's quite good that the state stops being stops young people being addicted apps. i think that's addicted to apps. i think that's addicted to apps. i think that's a positive thing. just a very positive thing. just because it's from china, you might not big fan of xi might not be a big fan of xi jinping doesn't mean they're wrong on this particular issue. we cultivating we are in cultivating our children in with bad values children in with very bad values on this. but also we're making millions of kids, addicts , millions of kids, addicts, addicts, i don't use that word lightly. this is about an addiction . and look, addictions addiction. and look, addictions are a perennial feature of human civilisation. they've always existed, but before has existed, but never before has a society allowed millions of children to become addicts all at the same time and call it progress. yeah, and extraordinary . extraordinary. >> a lot of that, of course, >> and a lot of that, of course, worsened during lockdowns when kids screen kids became true screen monsters. david a fascinating case. dunbar grammar school, a parental petition to ban smartphones. and i think a lot of the problem with this is that adults don't understand what kids are doing on phones. and they highlighted issues, they highlighted these issues, inappropriate staff,

inappropriate filming of staff, organised filmed fights , videos, organised filmed fights, videos, which i think, by the way, should be a total crime instigating fights, deliberate video targeted bullying. it damages lives. it's video targeted bullying. it damages lives . it's horrendous, damages lives. it's horrendous, organised filming of fights, as i said, fear of being filmed in changing rooms for blackmail purposes. now this is the whole new world from cheating at maths or using your phone to kind of look up essay answers. this is nefarious and i think a lot of the time parents just haven't got a clue what's going on. yeah, absolutely. >> you're like me, >> i mean, if you're like me, i'm over 40, so i grew up without smartphones. i grew up without smartphones. i grew up without mobile phones all. without mobile phones at all. and a lot and so, you know, a lot of people are olderjust people who are older just completely don't understand the culture that children have today. completely alien today. it's a completely alien what happens school. i mean, today. it's a completely alien wlot happens school. i mean, today. it's a completely alien wlot of ppens school. i mean, today. it's a completely alien wlot of the 15 school. i mean, today. it's a completely alien wlot of the time school. i mean, today. it's a completely alien wlot of the time you ol. i mean, today. it's a completely alien wlot of the time you don'tnean, today. it's a completely alien wlot of the time you don't even a lot of the time you don't even know being taught to know what's being taught to them, what goes on them, let alone what goes on socially smartphone. so socially on the smartphone. so yeah, think is fantastic yeah, i think this is fantastic action parents bringing a action by the parents bringing a petition ban smartphones. and petition to ban smartphones. and one was a really good point one that was a really good point you about having you made, aaron, about having the old dumb phones. if you like. i think that is all you

need for parents to get in touch with you. if there's an emergency. you don't need a smartphone of the non smartphone with all of the non essence and the rubbish that is coming across these apps. coming across on these apps. >> interesting because i'm >> it's interesting because i'm at cousin's wife is a is at my cousin's wife is a is a head and she makes their pupils check their phones in in the morning at a locker and they don't even get them until they leave. and she said there was a marked in attention marked improvement in attention less bullying, less less social media bullying, less inappropriate filming. the school just got better overnight. why can't things like that be commonplace? that just be commonplace? because i think, we have because i think, again, we have a culture and it goes back to what david was saying earlier on. >> cultural marxism, i >> he said cultural marxism, i would liberalism and the how would say liberalism and the how we human freedom we view freedom, human freedom within liberalism is no constraints. the fewer constraints, the more free you are . that's not true, because if are. that's not true, because if you no constraints as a you have no constraints as a society, you end up, like i say, with a situation where millions of young people can become addicts. and i think saying, no, you do this. it's your you can't do this. it's in your rational interest to do rational self interest to do this, that's not proposition. this, that's not a proposition. we enough as a society and

we hear enough as a society and you raise this with teachers, they just say, we can't do it because the parents let us because the parents won't let us do we need big cultural do it. so we need a big cultural shift this stuff. shift on this stuff. >> certainly, david, i don't >> and certainly, david, i don't think many children know what the word no even means anymore. they're indulged they're so indulged and how would be enforced? would this even be enforced? i mean, teacher for mean, my mum was a teacher for 27 years. she left the procession, the profession in the she just the 905 because she just felt the 905 because she just felt the children got all the power. >> well, children need boundanes >> well, children need boundaries and you know, one thing katharine birbalsingh said boundaries and you know, one tiyou katharine birbalsingh said boundaries and you know, one tiyou katha|when rbalsingh said boundaries and you know, one tiyou katha|when rlwent gh said boundaries and you know, one tiyou katha|when rlwent gh visit , you know, when i went to visit her mikayla's school in in wembley, she said, you know, if you love children, you you really love children, you will boundaries you will will set boundaries and you will say, and the first say, no to them. and the first people that need to do that are the know, if the parents. you know, if parents bring up their parents don't bring up their children boundaries, then children with boundaries, then when school , when they get to the school, there's very the school there's very little the school can they're used to can do because they're used to running you in their running riot. you know, in their families. do something families. they can do something wrong. then teachers to wrong. but then teachers need to say in say boundaries as well in schools . they all need to work schools. they all need to work together bring children. together to bring up children. and really love them, and if you really love them, that's what need do. that's what you need to do. >> what this feeling, >> what about this feeling, aaron, though, that mean, aaron, though, that i mean, children feel though

children just feel as though they without they can't function without a phone sometimes almost like phone sometimes it's almost like you of legs off, you saw one of their legs off, but used to it. but they get used to it. >> you know, get used to the >> you know, you get used to the you know, you adapt quickly you know, you adapt very quickly . yeah. have to say, the worst . yeah. i have to say, the worst part of my you know, i'm part of my job, you know, i'm a journalist. you gentlemen are in a same game. a similar the same game. a similar game with politics. the worst of my job, there's worst part of my job, there's two things hate. first is two things i hate. the first is having a phone and having having to use a phone and having to use social media so much as part of my job. the second is i don't to do enough physical don't get to do enough physical work. love to do a more work. i would love to do a more manual job if the money was right, there right, know what i mean? there yougb news right, know what i mean? there you gb news viewers right, know what i mean? there yougb news viewers put an offer >> gb news viewers put an offer in. we have to it there, in. we have to leave it there, gentlemen, for debate. gentlemen, for this debate. coming up, the duke and duchess of sussex, the sussexes, are going to solve find out going to solve sexism. find out how

and some sad news to bring you now from the news agency reuters

. a report in the irish singer , . a report in the irish singer, the legend sinead o'connor, has died at the age of 56. the dubun died at the age of 56. the dublin singer released ten studio albums and a song nothing compares. two u was named the number one world single in 1990 by the billboard music awards . by the billboard music awards. well, of course, have more of that on that story in your bulletin at the top of the hour. sad news. okay moving on now to our next story on dewbs& co, the sussexes of back, the report which calls for tv adverts to break the gender binary by showing women mowing the lawn and fixing the sink while men cook and clean. it strikes me as a bit odd because meghan is a walking gender stereotype . she walking gender stereotype. she outsources her cooking and cleaning and indeed everything else to nannies anyway. can the sussexes actually solve sexism, aaron, or is this just another piece of woke meddling from time? rich royals, former royals , i would call it a woke meddling. >> i just think they're sort of they're a bit lost. they don't

really know what to do with their time. you know, i really know what to do with theirtime. you know, i don't their time. you know, i don't think i don't think there's anything wrong with that. i mean, adverts, you know, talking about let's be about gender roles, let's be frank, really going to frank, it's not really going to change the world, but it's quite an innocuous thing. i'm not going angry or upset going to get angry or upset about disagree, about it. you might disagree, you but you're not you might agree, but you're not to attribute too time to going attribute too much time to going attribute too much time to but really, i just to it. but really, i just think they're kind they're a little they're kind of they're a little bit i have to say. bit lost, i have to say. personally speaking, was personally speaking, my dad was always the one doing the cooking. i've never really cooking. so i've never really understood is great understood that cooking is great fun. cleaning, the fun. it's the cleaning, the dishes. hard part. so dishes. that's the hard part. so beware any man says, beware of any man who says, i like cook. that means i'm i'm like to cook. that means i'm i'm a feminist because, you know, they still might not be pulling their weight. they still might not be pulling the well,;ht. they still might not be pulling the well, ilt. they still might not be pulling the well, i like and i'm >> well, i like to cook. and i'm definitely a feminist, but definitely not a feminist, but david, to you. this strikes david, over to you. this strikes me odd, not just me as doubly odd, not just because sussexes lack because of the sussexes own lack of participation in what we call housework manual labour, but housework or manual labour, but on adverts dodi the most on adverts already dodi the most woke thing on the planet. i mean, the last time, mean, when was the last time, for example, you saw an all white couple? was last time white couple? when was last time you straight who you saw a straight man who wasn't barracked? wasn't getting barracked? when wasn't getting barracked? when was the last time you saw a dad

who wasn't hapless, you know, who wasn't a hapless, you know, pratfall they're pratfall merchant? they're already their already stereotypes and their stereotyped against traditional masculinity and against traditional masculinity and against traditionai mean, that's a very >> yeah, i mean, that's a very good this is nothing new good point. this is nothing new talking about smashing the gender smashing gender binary or smashing heteronormativity or smashing white privilege. i mean, they seem to want to smash everything these days, but it actually is very damaging to two boys. i think , in particular, because think, in particular, because they need good, good masculine male role models to bring them up and show them how to live and show them how to be a good man. and if you are trying to fend denies boys and feminise men, which is what this organisation that they are involved in seems to want to do, then that is very, very damaging. i mean, they want they talk about pop positive masculinity. that's one of their phrases. but that seems to be what radical feminists would like men to be. it's not what men should be. and i think this is just an absolute load of woke nonsense to add to all the

other woke nonsense that there is. >> aaron. i know you might say it's not much to get annoyed about, but people do get annoyed about, but people do get annoyed about this. let's take, for example, gillette eight one shaving brand know when i shaving brand know back when i was was best a man was a lad, it was the best a man could was men who were could get. it was men who were winners. they got the girl, they got the their adored got the job. their sons adored them. were i guess you them. they were i guess you would call now retrograde heteronormative monsters. but yet fettled their yet when they fettled their offering became this kind offering and it became this kind offering and it became this kind of phrase, of toxic masculinity phrase, they suffered a crushing defeat in terms of sales. we saw with bud light, with dylan, dylan mulvaney is it the huge backlash? so are they completely inner to the outer touch? do people actually want these woke ads or actually, are we missing those traditional values? well, i the dylan mulvaney one i think the dylan mulvaney one was interesting i can was interesting because i can see light as a product see why bud light as a product would want to reach a different kind of audience know, kind of audience to, you know, middle children, middle aged guys, 2.4 children, which is was their bedrock. >> so again, i sort of obviously had a massive over overhead for them. didn't work. it them. it didn't work. it backfired. it's not the backfired. but it's not the first time a brand's tried to sort reinvent itself

sort of reinvent itself potentially as a more drink potentially as a more fun drink in regards what's being said in regards to what's being said more i'm more broadly there, i i'm sympathy stick idea that sympathy stick to this idea that men are quite lost in our culture and they're not being given a strong signs and signals and role models about what they can be, how to be happy, how to serve others. you know it's adverts maybe i'm showing my age here because i don't really watch tv. i watch youtube. if i'm watching gb news, it'll be on so these kinds of on youtube. so these kinds of ads are little bit lost on me. ads are a little bit lost on me. like say, me it feels like like i say, for me it feels like this is a couple who have a great deal of press attention potentially a great deal of power, just don't really power, and just don't really know to with it. they know what to do with it. they don't strong beliefs about don't have strong beliefs about things really everyday things that really everyday people about, it seems to me. >> yeah, but it's already fair, don't you think, david, that when you look at the advertising offerings, certainly on television , it's not television in the uk, it's not representative the population representative of the population of britain already. i mean, we don't see an advertising community reflects the community now that reflects the demographics the uk . so how demographics of the uk. so how on can it be more like on earth can it be more like that before it slips into the

realms of an alternative universe? >> i don't think it can be. i mean, you know, you look at the adverts on any television station, it's more than 50% black or brown people , bame black or brown people, bame people, whatever the word is. this year, this month. but you know, whereas the united kingdom is more than 80% white people. so people wants be truly so people wants to be truly representative , you'd expect to representative, you'd expect to see 80% white people, 20% black pakistani and bangladeshi and everybody else . that's not the everybody else. that's not the case. and lgbt is 2% of the population. but it seems to be about 50% of the people on all the adverts, particularly transgender people, which and i think people are absolutely sick of the lgbtq pride agenda being pushed in their faces all the time on every television station, every hour. we just had enough of it and aaron, doesn't that bring us back to where we started on this show? >> you know, the kind of gender identity politics, invading banking, advertising now is entirely succumbed to that

movement. so i don't quite get a handle around how we can go more down that route before we just completely erase everyday people from this planet of advertising. these are such complex questions being posed on gb news look, with the trans stuff, for instance. >> i think it's an important civil rights issue. i think it's hugely important civil rights issue.i hugely important civil rights issue. i think if you look at a whole of indicators and whole bunch of indicators and metrics, people metrics, trans people are very vulnerable in society. and i think that's where the conversation at, conversation should be at, whether people, white whether it's black people, white people, lgbt people, people, men, women, lgbt people, civil liberties and freedoms. how free without how can you be free without undermining freedom of undermining the freedom of somebody else? but instead, we've this strange we've gone into this strange sort mlange of, like sort of culture mlange of, like you say , everyday culture wars, you say, everyday culture wars, and about bud and we're talking about bud light and gillette. it's a bit too much. >> okay, thank you much, >> okay, thank you very much, aaron curtain. aaron bastani david curtain. thanks for coming tonight. up next, on a mission, next, the man on a mission, the one only nigel farage. the one and only nigel farage. the temperature's rising. >> bob frost, solar proud sponsors of weather on . gb news.
