11:08 pm
allowed to see the people within their classroom. when you go allowed to see the people within th> you cannot tell who might be sneering at you under the nose anyway . well, we hope these kids anyway. well, we hope these kids will claw their way back somehow into society. the second page we have is the telegraph , have is the daily telegraph, who, as usual, have the days who, as usual, have all the days news, but got the news, but they've got the natwest story at the top . natwest story at the top. >> yeah, natwest may have broken the law over farage may have broken the law. that's interesting. i have interesting. i would have assumed had so there's assumed they had so there's a quote here from farage dame alison rose's resignation was inevitable. having broken the first rule of banking by breaching patient, by breaching client confidentiality, she had to like patient. >> in a way, though, isn't it? yeah. >> it's freudian, isn't it? and now the rest of the natwest board must follow. so that's what today . what farage said today. >> so, i they're talking
11:09 pm
>> so, i mean, they're talking about natwest because that's the parent that's. parent company and that's. but there's obviously coutts is a brand but natwest brand within natwest but natwest is also a brand underneath natwest confusingly but they're talking natwest as the talking about natwest as the parent here rather than parent company here rather than exactly yeah because he has exactly yeah okay because he has been an account with been offered an account with natwest which natwest doesn't he. which has also well . also confused things as well. but seem i mean there but it does seem i mean there is, there is the subtle difference between how they handled the story and what they were doing prior to the story, which is what nigel farage originally objected to. and then there was the second tier of outrage , which is when rose outrage, which is when rose briefed this this bbc journalist sort of over dinner. and the suspicion is possibly, you know , slightly loose lipped, shall we say, in a social situation. it's probably yeah, well, to be in it, if anything, it's probably generous, isn't it, to assume she wouldn't have been quite been quite so careless if she'd been in in her office. >> it exposes a lot , though, >> it exposes a lot, though, doesn't it? because this wouldn't have been the first time happened. and we were time this happened. and we were having earlier. having this discussion earlier. simon and if it wasn't simon actually, and if it wasn't for gravitas someone like
11:10 pm
simon actually, and if it wasn't for farage,as someone like simon actually, and if it wasn't for farage,as wouldn'te like simon actually, and if it wasn't for farage,as wouldn't have nigel farage, we wouldn't have seen the persistence. >> i mean, he's dogged, isn't he? thing. he? this is the thing. and people underestimate oh, people underestimate him. oh, totally underestimated him. >> know, a lot of this >> but, you know, a lot of this story is about parking the characters the characters involved, the personalities involved, should i say. you know, for me, it's say. and you know, for me, it's about want his personal. about i want his personal. >> yeah, no, absolutely perfect man job. man for the job. >> but in to get everybody >> but in order to get everybody on there's on board because there's still plenty don't plenty of people who don't think this have this is this don't have a problem this is this don't have a pro it'sn it's the >> it's the most it's the greatest exposure of tribal division people who division between people who should be able to rise above that and see for what it is that and see it for what it is objectively. twitter been objectively. twitter has been an absolute bonfire for the last few i mean , i already few days. and i mean, i already thought seen of the thought i'd seen all of the philosophers and novelists and so on who had exposed themselves, as you know , as themselves, as you know, as idiots, frankly , in their idiots, frankly, in their inability to separate tribalism and sentiment from from hard facts. but this has brought a whole new tranche of them out just ridiculous . just ridiculous. >> i mean, just the assumption after assumption after assumption. nigel is nigel equals bad . therefore,
11:11 pm
equals bad. therefore, everything, everything aimed at him must be fair play. everything, everything aimed at him must be fair play . it was it him must be fair play. it was it was it paul mason on on on politics live with constantine kissing patronise ing constantine kissing who is essentially just saying of course this is this is part of the risk process. >> just understand . >> i just don't understand. constantine, perfectly normal. >> he's the only one who hasn't apologised so far. >> it's all been enormously enjoyable. and we've got other stories on there which we will come to on inside. but did you want discuss spacey yeah, want to discuss spacey yeah, well , i mean, want to discuss spacey yeah, well, i mean, we could want to discuss spacey yeah, well , i mean, we could talk, well, i mean, we could talk, i think quite an interesting story here 40 year mortgages here is the 40 year mortgages on the ministers are ministers >> so ministers are ministers are ministers will go to spacey sorry . sorry. >> that's right. no, go ahead. >> own thoughts. i didn't >> in my own thoughts. i didn't hear you there, the year hear you there, but the 40 year mortgage really interests hear you there, but the 40 year morbecause really interests hear you there, but the 40 year morbecause understanderests hear you there, but the 40 year morbecause understand exactly hear you there, but the 40 year morithey|se understand exactly hear you there, but the 40 year morithey would1derstand exactly hear you there, but the 40 year morithey would jumpand exactly hear you there, but the 40 year morithey would jump toi exactly hear you there, but the 40 year morithey would jump toi exaat! why they would jump to that at this time . but why they would jump to that at this time. but to why they would jump to that at this time . but to have this point in time. but to have a 40 fixed is a 40 year fixed mortgage is a very big deal. the reason we have sort of two, three, five, i actually a ten year fixed. actually have a ten year fixed. so right now looks like a so right now that looks like a good when took good plan. but when i took it out, know, that out, i was, you know, is that a goodidea out, i was, you know, is that a good idea or is that a good
11:12 pm

11:38 pm
of the day, two things have got to women get paid to happen for women to get paid the any the same amount. in any business, and that's that they have to generate the same , have to generate the same, particularly in football. they have money or have to generate equal money or the men's game has to subsidise it in some way, which has already happened. it happened in america . yeah. and at the of america. yeah. and at the end of the day, you're essentially getting very good wages. women are getting very good wages and will only if we just keep supporting women's football, they will get higher and higher. the is what sport the question is what is sport for, it? the question is what is sport for, it's it? similar to the >> it's very similar to the trans like the male trans argument, like the male sport. it's entertainment it sport. it's an entertainment it or is it a means of social control? is it a means of social manipulation and social engineering? we trying to engineering? are we trying to create idea in people's heads create an idea in people's heads that women are as good men at that women are as good as men at football not football because they're not they're nothing like as good? the female team the american female team recently lost humiliatingly to wrexham and like the wrexham seniors. so they're really not as good. >> so you're saying american football is subsidising women's ? >> ?i >> it 7- >> it has 7_ >> it has done 7 >> it has done previously. ? >> it has done previously. so with the men's team, we've done
11:39 pm
particularly well . they've particularly well. they've actually subsidised. >> that's the that's the hero story isn't it . they've shared story isn't it. they've shared the gold. >> yeah. yeah heroes stories. that's we want to do. the that's what we want to do. the telegraph have a story now. i think found a key think we may have found a key part productivity crisis part of the productivity crisis and clue and might even give us a clue about women's but i'll about women's football. but i'll leave well it leave that with you. well it gives clue about women. gives us a clue about women. >> the gen z women turning their backs on hard for lazy girl backs on hard work for lazy girl jobs. backs on hard work for lazy girl jobs . so they're is this jobs. so they're is this movement. it's called the anti—work movement. yes it's a real thing. probably born out of the pandemic, but so this woman, she's helping other women get what are called lazy girl jobs . what are called lazy girl jobs. and these are jobs that you can do remotely and not for not very much time. so you get a full salary for a couple of hours, work day. brilliant but work a day. brilliant but i think this is really about work life we know that life balance. and we know that hear all this about the pay gap . but women aren't they don't they're not as driven for high salaries as men. it's not a motivator for and i'm reminded of that lovely quote that young
11:40 pm
are supposed to have said. i got this from jordan peterson. a man's highest goal is perfection and a woman's most important thing is, is wholeness . and i thing is, is wholeness. and i think that's what women are like . women want to have it all or they're they can have it they're told they can have it all we hear about the time. all we hear about all the time. you con. you can't you know, it's a con. you can't have if woman have it all. so if a woman can find a job that allows her to do other well , doesn't other things as well, doesn't mention but, know, mention kids, but, you know, that's typically what it is , that's typically what it is, then that's great. i'm all. yeah anti—work. >> i mean, i know of my friends, you know, from my university cohort, you know, some of them did enormously well, have done tremendously work and tremendously well at work and have great salaries and have earned great salaries and have earned great salaries and have and have have huge houses and have reached and are retiring reached my age and are retiring now and are going to have some nice back, nice years. but looking back, realise they've done nothing else. they've spent 30 years every night they've every single night they've committed at least to working to the, to the dot if not way beyond it . a lot of them, you beyond it. a lot of them, you know, emerge almost blinking into the light to their into the light to find their marriages sort basically marriages of sort of basically faded to nothing. and, you know, that a choice you can make. that is a choice you can make. it's true. not many women make
11:41 pm
that choice. and i think, to be honest, they're probably right not i think, not to. this is, i think, a slightly pathological, know slightly pathological, you know , over overcorrection in the other direction. >> but what i love about this is it it's not just about it shows you it's not just about barriers. just endlessly barriers. we just hear endlessly about opportunities for women, barriers. we just hear endlessly about sure irtunities for women, barriers. we just hear endlessly about sure there'ses for women, barriers. we just hear endlessly about sure there's no )r women, barriers. we just hear endlessly about sure there's no glass 1en, make sure there's no glass ceiling so and so on. and make sure there's no glass ceillike so and so on. and make sure there's no glass ceillike thisso and so on. and make sure there's no glass ceillike this is and so on. and make sure there's no glass ceillike this is a and so on. and make sure there's no glass ceillike this is a movement. and it's like this is a movement from the women saying we don't want to for 60 hours want to go to work for 60 hours a week. >> yeah, well, who knows? maybe a week. >> superwell, who knows? maybe a week. >> super interestinglnows? maybe a week. >> super interesting coming iiaybe the super interesting coming yeah times now meghan and yeah paul times now meghan and harry have presumably felt the world been missing their world has been missing their gentle on tiller for gentle hands on the tiller for too long. >> yeah, right. here we go again. and duchess of again. duke and duchess of sussex, duke and sussex, who i call the duke and duchess grift , have have duchess of grift, have have thrown their support behind a report calling for the media and advertisers to break the gender binary , which is essentially binary, which is essentially saying things like, you don't have men, you know , being the have men, you know, being the people that are cutting the grass and advertising lawnmowers. i don't know lawnmowers. now i don't know when the last time they watched tv was, it must have been 2010. i mean, the last time i saw an advert where there was a man
11:42 pm
doing with tools , opal doing stuff with man tools, opal fruits were still called opal fruits were still called opal fruits and i'm not this is just an absolute grift. there is a reason , griff, but it's good as reason, griff, but it's good as well because i've been reading about this recently and one of the know because the things i didn't know because i'm sexist, is that i'm not just sexist, is that male parenting really male parenting is really important and kids benefit enormously from male parenting , enormously from male parenting, so they're not going to be persuaded to do it because the duchess of sussex has backed. >> same this is >> no, this is the same this is like this mate stuff. it is tiresome because it's using adverts become social adverts to become social engineering again. should engineering again. you should use an advert sell use an advert to sell a lawnmower . any attempt to an lawnmower. any attempt to use an advert to sell a lawnmower and sell the idea that your wife could do the lawn mowing while you breastfeeding is you were inside breastfeeding is it's not going to sell many lawnmowers will, you know , my lawnmowers will, you know, my wife does loads of gardening anyway, after the break we've got angry oompa loompas barb b and human meat or as paul calls it, a standard wednesday night. we'll see you in a couple of minutes .
