3:05 am
now it's back to dan. >> has the left ever missed the point so spectacularly that in the decision to back natwest and its dystopian attacks on freedom of speech in banking farage for holding political views shared by the majority of ordinary brits, former bbc establishment lefty emily maitlis led the charge this week , sneering about charge this week, sneering about awful populists while completely misrepresenting the truth about nigel's dire predicament and what it means for democracy . what it means for democracy. >> farage made it an argument about free speech, about liberty, about censorship when it wasn't no one was shutting him down. no one was stopping him down. no one was stopping him from banking. no one was calling him names. they simply waited until he paid off a mortgage. having decided ahead of time that they would call it quits at that point. and this isn't a public utility . it's not
3:06 am
isn't a public utility. it's not electricity . it's a posh private electricity. it's a posh private bank. it's in the name . yet the bank. it's in the name. yet the power of the populist somehow is to turn utter entitlement into victimhood . but what ms victimhood. but what ms >> maitlis fails to mention there is that farage spent months carefully considering his position before going public, writing to the now axed ceo peter flavell three times with no response and getting his custom turned down by another seven banks before speaking out . he was desperate and he understood the plight of others besides , surely emily should besides, surely emily should know the principle of free speech is that you stand up for the rights of those who you disagree with most. which is why, for example, i one of why, for example, i was one of the voices who spoke up the first voices who spoke up for the left media for the hard left media organisation, novara media, that regularly offers deranged criticism of me when they were de—platformed by youtube . but de—platformed by youtube. but the left's tone deafness continued with gemma forte's
3:07 am
crude dismissal of the wider problem . problem. >> i can't lie. >> i'm not going to lose a massive amount of sleep over nigel farage losing a bank account and having to bank at natwest. honestly my violin is tense. why? we've got bigger issues in this country then there was this from yasmin alibhai brown on jeremy vine . alibhai brown on jeremy vine. >> so he's a now a victim , the >> so he's a now a victim, the most entitled man politician. oh, now he's the victim. let me tell you this . do you know how tell you this. do you know how many muslims particularly but not only muslims, muslim organisations. i used to run a charity have had their bank accounts closed over the last five years. i don't know . no five years. i don't know. no huge numbers . never explained. huge numbers. never explained. >> i thought you had the number again. >> ms alibhai—brown completely misses the point . farage is misses the point. farage is campaigning against all these organisations and individuals being banged , so whatever muslim being banged, so whatever muslim foundation she refers to will actually benefit from his
3:08 am
campaign . but i think shadow campaign. but i think shadow chancellor rachel reeves had possibly the worst take of them all. the woman who in a few short months could be responsible for our entire banking sector and an opportunity to finally show labour could be on the side of ordinary folk rather than the establishment . she failed establishment. she failed spectacularly and instead decided to pathetically turn the issue into another boring debate of identity politics. because dame alison rose just happens to be a woman. >> i don't like some of the frankly , what i see as bullying frankly, what i see as bullying attitudes towards her. she's the first female chief executive of natwest. she took over at a time when that bank had real big problems. it seems to me that alison rose has done a good job turning that bank around . turning that bank around. >> the guardian went even further today suggests that the reckoning of our banks was damaging the international red reputation of uk plc . damaging the international red reputation of uk plc. how damaging the international red reputation of uk plc . how wrong reputation of uk plc. how wrong could they be? the only damage
3:09 am
being done to our reputation is through the pernicious culture of censorship sweeping through every public body, every globalist institution, every woke corporation, and the highly censored mainstream media. if there's one issue that should unite the left and the right behind the importance of our overlord heads butting out of our legitimate political views, it is this one. the fact they care more about their ongoing disdain for nigel and indeed gb news views, i believe is a depressing indictment on the left. but to respond now, my superstar panel, former education minister dame andrea jenkins recently appointed conservative peer lord bailey and the best selling author amy nicole turner shaun bailey the left misses the point here, don't they ? don't they? >> i cannot tell you how far wide of the point they are. firstly this isn't about nigel
3:10 am
farage. this is about the hundreds of thousands of people who've been debunked for no , who've been debunked for no, with no explanation at all. and what that means for a person. one of the things that nigel said i think is very poignant. it's very hard to exist in the modern world without a bank account. hasn't only account. and this hasn't only happened nigel. the one happened to nigel. he is the one highlighting he's fighting highlighting it. he's fighting on people agree on behalf of people who agree with him and who don't. that's very important. and the other pieces that pieces as well. it shows that the much more the left are much more interested attacking people interested in attacking people as long as it's someone they perceive as an enemy, because when it isn't, they rode to the defence of the banks. and if you're at home now and you're some warrior, you some socialist warrior, you must be that your chief be confused that your chief socialist warrior, rachel reeves, is now running to the defence the banks. has defence of the banks. what has happened here is an attack not only on free speech but on people's lives and lively hoods. because most people who will tell you that they've had something this were something like this happen were trying their own trying to run their own business. that's why it's business. and that's why it's very important, notwithstanding that it happens to be nigel involved to this involved to get this issue sorted. >> e“ n
3:11 am
gm- gm— f i can't believe that >> i mean, i can't believe that you agree with these folk on the left. why don't you up for left. why don't you stand up for free speech, which i just cannot believe we are still talking about this story. >> one week in because you clearly don't understand the story. the fact is that he was offered a natwest account. so a man of the people nigel was offered a normal bank account. i was there speaking to nigel dunng was there speaking to nigel during this process. a bank account like everyone else. >> i was speaking to nigel throughout this process. let's just straight just get the chronology straight and the facts straight. natwest made a late offer to him once. amy they knew that he was going to speak out on his gb news show. that's when the offer for natwest was debunked . natwest was debunked. >> or wasn't he? because it sounds like he wasn't. and also, can i just say on the fact that you're saying, oh, he's he's standing up for everyone that you're saying, oh, he's he's stanever up for everyone that you're saying, oh, he's he's stanever debunked,yone that you're saying, oh, he's he's stanever debunked, why that you're saying, oh, he's he's stanever debunked, why didt you're saying, oh, he's he's stanever debunked, why did it was ever debunked, why did it take him to be brought into question him to stand up for question for him to stand up for all these people that he has? >> because you need >> because sometimes you need a great don't you? great leader, don't you? >> because why didn't he
3:12 am
>> yeah, because why didn't he stand before? i've stand up for them before? i've got of people got examples of people on lower incomes allowed incomes not being allowed accounts. workers accounts. they're sex workers who their shut who had their accounts shut down. this has been going on for decades. all why did it decades. all this. why did it take this? his his own take all this? his his own experience, this pull into experience, this pull him into the limelight? >> all of what you've just done is proved that is just proved the fact that somebody it. let's be somebody had to do it. let's be clear. people always talk about if you do something public clear. people always talk about if yoyou'reomething public clear. people always talk about if yoyou're brave,ng public clear. people always talk about if yoyou're brave, nigel)ublic clear. people always talk about if yoyou're brave, nigel putic clear. people always talk about if yoyou're brave, nigel put at life, you're brave, nigel put at risk his ability to exist. you cannot the things he does cannot do the things he does without account. and they without a bank account. and they had are you missing had denied him. are you missing the i'm saying? he got >> what i'm saying? he got offered bank account. no, he offered a bank account. no, he got you're missing jamie. >> andrew jenkins. you come in. >> andrew jenkins. you come in. >> not allowed de—man. >> he's not allowed de—man. >> he's not allowed de—man. >> john says you're >> john jenkins says you're missing point. amy let missing the point. amy let andrew. jamie, think you're andrew. jamie, i think you're missing because missing the point here, because we're about confidentiality. >> this is a different >> and this is a different i think it's part of what were think it's part of what we were talking about. >> let's andrew your >> let's let andrew make your point then you can respond. point and then you can respond. >> about >> damian is about confidentiality. i mean, confidentiality. katie i mean, we're ceo of we're talking about a ceo of a bank actually leaking stuff to the bbc, for sake. and the bbc, for god's sake. and we've, we've seen with emily we've, we've seen with the emily maitlis you know, how maitlis comments, you know, how i mean, the bbc cancelled people
3:13 am
. if they don't agree with their views. we saw it with laurence fox , didn't yes. during used fox, didn't we? yes. during used to speak to him during the. absolutely >> campaign and said they wouldn't speak to him he wouldn't speak to him even if he won. woi'i. >> won. >> and m- m“ >> and do we really want to live in country where political in a country where political affiliation you affiliation means that you you can lose your bank account? >> absolutely not. but that is a separate issue. how it the separate issue. how is it the giving out of the personal information? they're two separate things. think separate things. and i think where coutts was at fault where where coutts was at fault was obviously that was obviously talking to that bbc source . that was completely bbc source. that was completely wrong. that's the error of judgement here. no, the error. >> you don't think it's an >> so you don't think it's an error of judgement? in all seriousness, you don't think it's error judgement, that it's an error of judgement, that coote's a 40 page coote's prepared a 40 page briefing document on nigel farage's views, which by the way are views shared by the majority of the country to actually libel him as racist and transphobic. and then they used that pernicious report , take his bank pernicious report, take his bank account away . you don't think
3:14 am
account away. you don't think that's the issue? >> i think that that was inappropriate and bad conduct from the banks. but if we look at the banks, did this did this make you lose faith in the banks? because there are plenty. yes, there are plenty of other things we should have lost faith in a long time ago. in the banks a long time ago. the that they're supporting the fact that they're supporting people with mortgages people with their mortgages right ppi. but let's be right now, the ppi. but let's be clear, there is mounting evidence on this. >> no, i'm sorry. >> no, no, i'm sorry. >> being an opportunist. >> being an opportunist. >> no. his own all the >> no. in his own all of the things said not excuse things you've said do not excuse what's gone on. so fact that what's gone on. so the fact that it's going on for a long it's been going on for a long time, the fact that banks have other issues, we all agree with. but this is a particular issue and highlighted the and it's been highlighted by the things nigel. and things they did to nigel. and it's important the sanctity it's very important the sanctity of anonymity, of keeping people's things, people's personal things, confidentiality is so important that osbournes is saying that now the osbournes is saying they have them, but they may have broken them, but also but also what about the right the right to right what about the right to have view that the have a view that the establishment might disagree with, that they might find uncomfortable and what i worry aboutis uncomfortable and what i worry about is that very soon we will see other woke organisations like maybe these very woke
3:15 am
airlines starting to say, oh well, if you agree with ricky gervais issues, you gervais on trans issues, you ain't getting on our plane completely agree, dan and what i think what we saw demonstrated in the clip was rachel reeves , in the clip was rachel reeves, the shadow chancellor. >> what's going to happen if labour form a government ? it labour form a government? it will be woke. economics i think. and also the risk of a socialist government embracing this. absolutely i'm in a neighbouring seat to rachel reeves and she's standing up for somebody who has leaked information to the bbc rather than standing up for freedom of speech. and as a yorkshire woman , i know that yorkshire woman, i know that rachel reeves constituents will not be happy. but of course she made it all about identity politics. >> final word, amy? >> final word, amy? >> no, ijust >> final word, amy? >> no, i just think that the rachel reeves thing has been taken slightly context. taken slightly out of context. i think she was just saying, don't judge this woman by one mistake and track record. and look at her track record. she people all the she does that to people all the time. number of female is time. number of female ceos is woeful. not about gender, woeful. it's not about gender, is it? >> and you can't the fact that she got the of that
3:16 am
she got to the top of that company. but why do the left always talk about gender identity politics? >> right >> it's about what's right or wrong. >> and i always find it ironic, isn't it, given actually isn't it, given that actually rachel was the one who rachel reeves was the one who couldn't a if a woman has couldn't say if a if a woman has a surface then all of a surface and then all of a sudden of a sudden, oh, no, sudden all of a sudden, oh, no, i want to talk about female hypocrisy, amy shaun bailey hypocrisy, amy and shaun bailey andrea so andrea jenkins thank you so much. panel with me much. my superstar panel with me all night. but up, all night. but coming up, ferocious former tory minister ann fangs ann widdecombe gets her fangs into farage crusade into where the farage crusade against woke banks is now against the woke banks is now bolstering freedom of speech in britain. many of us can britain. and not many of us can stand the of him. so why stand the sight of him. so why is blair now promising that is tony blair now promising that we're rejoin the eu and we're going to rejoin the eu and on the attack shortly? but first in clash, prince harry's in the clash, as prince harry's phone against the phone hacking claim against the sun thrown out sun publisher has thrown out with the with scathing criticism from the judge. losing his judge. is the duke losing his war the british tabloid war against the british tabloid press myskow, press? nina myskow, ingrid seward. jane set for a royal rumble , but what do you think, rumble, but what do you think, dan? at gbnews.com vote in our poll at gb news on twitter. the clash straight after this .
3:20 am
news. the people's channel. britain's news . news. the people's channel. britain's news. channel >> my royal milestones lady c and feel d and lord david frost all on the way. but first, the clash and prince harry's obsessive war against the british press was dealt a brutal blow today as his phone hacking case against news group newspapers publisher of the sun, was thrown out by a judge who branded duke's claims branded the duke's claims implausible . inherently unlikely
3:21 am
implausible. inherently unlikely and vague and limited . while and vague and limited. while part of harry's lawsuit against ngn will still go to trial , it ngn will still go to trial, it comes as no surprise to see this legal argument fall flat on its face after harry admitted he had no evidence to prove phone hacking in his high court battle against mirror group newspapers back in june . back in june. >> when you think your phone was consistently hacked throughout the 15 year period between 1996 and 2011, the time period that makes up your claim against mgm, it could have been happening on a daily basis. >> i simply don't know. >> i simply don't know. >> are you aware of any evidence to show this? >> no . that's part of the reason >> no. that's part of the reason i'm here. my lord. >> so what do you think? as harry's phone hacking claim against the sun publisher is thrown out with scathing criticism from the judge? is he losing his war against the british tabloid press? dan at gbnews.com vote in our poll at gbnews.com vote in our poll at gb news on twitter. but to debate this now, i'm joined by the pro sus journalist nina
3:22 am
myskow , deputy leader of ukip , myskow, deputy leader of ukip, rebecca jane and the editor in chief of majesty magazine. ingnd chief of majesty magazine. ingrid seward. so, ingrid, what's your take on this ? what's your take on this? >> well, i don't think harry has completely lost his war with the tabloids because he has got his day or many more days maybe in court come january. so they've thrown out the things that he couldn't prove of, especially this this so—called meeting between buckingham palace and the and the sun group newspapers . and but he has still got his day in court. so i don't think he's completely lost it. but i feel that it's other than his battle against the press, i think it's to my mind, it's his way of avenging his mother's death because in harry's mind, you know, the press killed his mother. and i think that's what it's all about. so he's not to going give up. you know, this is
3:23 am
more than just getting at the press. sort like press. it's sort of like a really big mission for him. >> but rebecca jane, the judge was scathing of harry today. he he really said that a lot of what harry argued in his statement simply wasn't credible i >> absolutely. he's a delusion journal. he's a delusional fantasist who is completely and utterly made up half of the things that he says. and there's no base in evidence. you know, for me, i kind of want to go to the lawyers and say, why on earth are you taking this man's money? you've got to have evidence. we all know that when you go to court, you can't just try and people on an try and sue people on an absolute so, harry, absolute whim. so, harry, i mean, ingrid mean, obviously, ingrid is absolutely harry absolutely correct. harry has got to grind and he's got a grudge to grind and he's trying to do that using the trying to do that by using the courts. the problem is he's courts. but the problem is he's got six, six high court cases now , and that is going to do now, and that is going to do nothing but bring him a whole lot of unhappiness, whether he's right or whether wrong , right or whether he's wrong, he's never going to find peace
3:24 am
down absolute path of down an absolute path of complete destruction. and that's the that harry's the only thing that harry's getting from this. nina mikhalkov, you disagree with rebecca jane, don't you? >> you think he's winning? >> you think he's winning? >> i completely disagree. i mean, the fact of the matter, he has three court cases going and he is perfectly entitled to all of them. and the reason that there is no evidence for him to produce for a judge to say, look, here's an agreement between in the royal palaces , between in the royal palaces, the you know, the clarence house or buckingham palace and news group newspapers is because nobody is going to write that down. nobody's going to have a document signed by king charles and say, rebecca wade, it's we all know that horse trading goes on, that there are there are ways and means of doing it. on, that there are there are ways and means of doing it . and ways and means of doing it. and the royal family is very, very anxious about not having to go to court to go through details. they they absolutely do not want
3:25 am
to be in the same position they were in 1993 when the sun and other tabloids actually published an audible version as well of a really embarrassing conversation between charles and camilla, called it was known as tampon gate while charles was still married to diana . and the still married to diana. and the last thing they want is for dirty linen to be washed in pubuc dirty linen to be washed in public and so that's why we're . public and so that's why we're. liam settled out of court. william got a large, large payoutin william got a large, large payout in 2020. and so you know, the fact that harry has been prevented from pursuing this bit about phone hacking, everybody knows that he must. people aren't stupid. they must know he's been he's been hacked. >> ingrid. ingrid seward isn't the issue that there was effectively a statute of limitations and it passed. and so harry was trying to claim , so harry was trying to claim, um, that he wasn't aware of
3:26 am
something when actually he had every right if he'd wanted to , every right if he'd wanted to, to take his case. previously he had think, well, nina, nina would know this, but i think he had six years in which to work on this case. >> and he said well he, he didn't work on it because, oh, the queen was doing a deal with the queen was doing a deal with the sun. i mean, i mean, even by harry's standards, that is pretty ridiculous. and i'm not putting nina down because i know she knows about these things because she worked think for the sun or whatever. but i just don't think that happened. and i think that and harry has got . think that and harry has got. oh, if it did happen, harry can't prove it. >> well, rebecca, the judge. rebecca jane, the judge clearly doesn't think it happened . doesn't think it happened. >> absolutely . yeah. there's not >> absolutely. yeah. there's not a shred of evidence. so we can all sit here and summarise, but we all know for an absolute fact if there was any kind of evidence whatsoever, harry would have thrown it in the court. he didn't. wasn't one piece didn't. there wasn't one piece of and if you can, you of evidence and if you can, you can still bring a claim, even if
3:27 am
it is out of time. if you have good reason and evidence for doing judge is very much doing so. the judge is very much said a shred of said there's not a shred of evidence. why claim evidence. that's why his claim has disbarred, because you has been disbarred, because you can't it when he's out of can't bring it when he's out of time. and the points that harry was judge said was saying, the judge has said he about these things all he knew about these things all the way along. he had absolute opportunity to bring claim. opportunity to bring this claim. he it in that time he didn't bring it in that time because he obviously on to a because he was obviously on to a whole different things. whole other different things. and he's not the and because he's not got the attention that wanted from attention that he wanted from his overseas and the love his move overseas and the love and adoration thought he was and adoration he thought he was getting, now back . getting, he's now back. >> rebecca, we're talking about a decade ago. >> yes, but nina, nina , can i >> yes, but nina, nina, can i just. nina, can just put just. but nina, can i just put to specifically what mr to you specifically what mr justice fancourt said in regards to this claim that there was some sort of secret deal, secret agreement between the late queen and news group newspapers. so this is the words of the judge. he notes that the only evidence supporting its existence was the duke's own witness statement, which he then went on to
3:28 am
describe as vague and limited . describe as vague and limited. and he said the existence of any form of secret agreement was implores , able and inherently implores, able and inherently unlikely . so, nina, are you unlikely. so, nina, are you really simply to continue defending harry, be prepared to question yes, i'm prepared. verdict of mr justice question yes, i'm prepared. verdict of mrjustice fancourt, verdict of mr justice fancourt, who has looked at all the evidence . yes. evidence. yes. >> or lack of evidence with the greatest respect, the judge does not know the workings of fleet street and the workings of the royal and you can't you royal family and you can't you know what charles wanted was for him, for himself to be accept as king and for camilla to be accepted as queen consort, as the as the queen wanted it, and is now queen, for heaven's sake . but that's what he wanted. and so that's why they have done a deal with the devil and they play deal with the devil and they play along because they do not the devil. >> nina, as as ingrid points out , you used you used to be part of that organisation. >> i was. i was the rock writer
3:29 am

british press. lady colin campbell and phil dampier live shortly. but next, will nigel farages victory over woke banking establishment help protect free speech in the uk ? protect free speech in the uk? and like a bad smell that just refuses to budge, tony blair promises britain will rejoin the eu . former tory minister ann eu. former tory minister ann widdecombe has fired up on all of that straight after this .
3:37 am
channel lady colin campbell and phil dampier on the way. >> but first, big willie style with former tory minister ann widdecombe and the banking crisis rocked britain crisis that has rocked britain continues to worsen with natwest group ceo dame alison rosen now coutts chief exec peter flavell were both forced to resign in disgrace. this in a landmark victory for free speech and ultimately democracy . nigel ultimately democracy. nigel farage has succeeded in proving that banks in britain have been closing accounts based on the political opinions of customers. despite the bbc's original misreporting. so an will nigel's quite sensational victory over the establishment here helped protect free speech in the uk . protect free speech in the uk. >> i think it certainly will help protect free speech, but sadly, as i think i've pointed out before , the measures are too out before, the measures are too restricted and the government has already taken action against universities because they had become notorious for no platforming. almost every five minutes. and so the government
3:38 am
brought in action there. now we've had this scandal. there's no other word for it of coutts and natwest and the government's bringing in action to control the banks. but what about businesses large and small? what about theatres? what about other media outlets which still can discriminate either against employees or against customers ? employees or against customers? they're not going to be touched by the government's action about banks. now, you know , nigel has banks. now, you know, nigel has done a fantastic job on this. i mean, he's kept this at the forefront of the news now for quite a long time. and he has exposed what goes on. and i think banks will be very chary in future about expressing opinions as to what they're customers should or should not think . yes. i mean, i think that think. yes. i mean, i think that is terrific. but but it's uni directional . it's directed at directional. it's directed at the banks. why not an overarching free speech law in this country? yes, absolutely. >> because we see this creep, don't we? we see this creep
3:39 am
through all of our institutions , all of our corporations, the media. and the risk is an that this gets a lot worse under a socialist government, which, like it or not, could be just around the corner because you've seen labour's reaction to this this week. and they don't they don't believe in free speech. >> no, they absolutely don't. and well , at >> no, they absolutely don't. and well, at any >> no, they absolutely don't. and well , at any rate, if their and well, at any rate, if their actions are anything to go by, they don't because because they have effectively said that, you know, the banks were bullied into. alison rose resigning. i mean, nonsense , you know, mean, nonsense, you know, absolute nonsense. she'd broken confidentiality. that is the banking equivalent of the sin against the holy ghost. you know, it's unforgivable. you never talk about a customer's private affairs, let alone on to a high profile news reporter. i mean, what next doctors going to be discussing farage medical conditions? you know, i mean, a priest's going to be telling the bbc what they've heard in the
3:40 am
confessional. i mean , where does confessional. i mean, where does this stop ? so, i mean, it was this stop? so, i mean, it was a complete scandal and labour are trying to play it down. and i think that gives you a pretty good indication of what labour will do when i don't even think it's if when they take office towards the end of next year, they are not going to campaign against woke, they are not going to guarantee free speech, they are going to act on the basis of if we don't like your opinions, then we're not going to support your liberties. that effectively sums up the labour attitude. now there are 1 or 2 very, very honourable exceptions to that, but it's starmer and his shadow cabinet that you need to be looking at and they are not exactly championing free speech at the moment. >> no, indeed . now, ann, i knew >> no, indeed. now, ann, i knew you'd be mad about this one. tony blair nailing his ramona colours firmly to the mask and making a treacherous claim that we're going to rejoin the eu. this is as a new poll showed,
3:41 am
pubuc this is as a new poll showed, public support for are going back in at a five year high. blair's described brexit as a constant source sadness to me and he thinks future generations are going to put it right. and i doesn't. he just need to move on and respect the biggest democratic vote in british history . history. >> oh, of course he does . i >> oh, of course he does. i mean, i too, find it a really sadnessin mean, i too, find it a really sadness in brexit, but it's not because brexit happened. it's because brexit happened. it's because nobody's done anything with brexit. the government isn't taking advantage of brexit. it hasn't had a bonfire of eu regulations which we were promised. it is doing trade deals that much it is doing. but on virtually every other front. i mean , you know, more money to i mean, you know, more money to france to stop the boats. france never does anything with the money that we give them. and so i'm about the way that i'm sad about the way that brexit has been treated . and i brexit has been treated. and i think the answer, therefore , think the answer, therefore, lies in making the most of brexit and showing its its brexit and showing off its its value rather than trying to say, oh, it was a mistake , which i oh, it was a mistake, which i don't believe it was . but tony
3:42 am
don't believe it was. but tony blair needs to really do a bit of thinking . so we're going to of thinking. so we're going to apply of thinking. so we're going to apply from scratch, are we? so we have to join the eurozone . is we have to join the eurozone. is that something we really want to do ? look at the eurozone at the do? look at the eurozone at the moment and the state it's in. you know, we would have to pay an enormous joining fee. we've already paid a big divorce fee. do we want to pay another joining want to go joining fee? do we want to go back being a net contributor back to being a net contributor 7 back to being a net contributor ? do we to go back to being ? do we want to go back to being told by brussels what we have to do minutes of the day? do every two minutes of the day? you're literally just good. blair thinks we should know. >> and you're describing the nightmare. you're describing a nightmare. you're describing a nightmare scenario. and i think it actually is a really good thing to say. it's like when people say, oh, let's just rejoin actually the consequences. yeah. would would be vast . and. be absolutely vast. and. whitaker big willie style thank you so much we'll speak next week but coming up nigel farage celebrates two scalps in his crusade against authoritarian banking giants after the resignation a duo of chief resignation of a duo of chief execs. but will the last man
3:43 am
standing also fall on his sword? and should the fat cats who tried censoring nigel still get a seven figure severance payment 7 a seven figure severance payment ? my superstar panel debate that shortly but next lady colin campbell and phil dampier give their top analysis on prince harry's latest legal battle with the the sun. so the publisher of the sun. so will harry's obsession with the past push him further away from meghan, my royal masterminds here with the breaking news today. these big developments in his phone hacking trial in mere moments .
3:47 am
harry's war on the british tabloid press took a hit today after a judge threw out his phone hacking claim against the sun's publishers his written phone hacking claim against the sun'scourtishers his written phone hacking claim against the sun'scourt ruling, his written phone hacking claim against the sun'scourt ruling, mris written phone hacking claim against the sun'scourt ruling, mr justice an high court ruling, mrjustice fancourt picked holes the fancourt picked holes in the duke's witness statement and concluded of concluded he was aware enough of the phone hacking scandal to bnng the phone hacking scandal to bring sooner. also bring the case sooner. he also refused allow harry rely refused to allow harry to rely on secret agreement on an alleged secret agreement between the royal family and senior executives working for murdoch however, senior executives working for murdoc legal however, senior executives working for murdoc legal action however, senior executives working for murdoc legal action overwever, senior executives working for murdoc legal action over other. harry's legal action over other allegations, use allegations, including the use of private investigators, is can go it's due start go to trial. it's due to start in january next year. so lady go to trial. it's due to start in jarcampbell,/ear. so lady go to trial. it's due to start in jarcampbell, phil so lady go to trial. it's due to start in jarcampbell, phil dampier colin campbell, phil dampier with c, what you with me now. lady c, what do you make of this ruling by the judge? the case going judge? i know the case is going to go ahead. sorry. phil dampier will with you. i know will kick off with you. i know the case to going go ahead the case is to going go ahead in january , part at least. january, part of it at least. but how badly has harry's reputation been hit by these completely scathing comments from the judge questioning his witness statement ? yeah good witness statement? yeah good evening, jane. >> i mean, i think his reputation is in tatters, isn't it? i mean, this is the same judge, justice van court, who, of course, presiding over the of course, is presiding over the mirror as well. and you mirror trial as well. and you may remember at the end of that
3:48 am
, he asked harry's barrister , it he asked harry's barrister , david sherborne, didn't he, to produce evidence phone produce any evidence of phone hacking couldn't do so. hacking and he couldn't do so. and i think a massive and i think that was a massive indicator of what the was indicator of what the judge was thinking. out thinking. now he's thrown out the phone hacking aspect of the sun's case and this . deal sun's case and this. deal between the press and the palace. so, yes, it is going aheadin palace. so, yes, it is going ahead in january and he's still going to be a trial about other methods using private detectives and blagging. i believe . but, and blagging. i believe. but, you know, this is only going one way at the moment for harry. and i would have thought that meghan, who an extremely meghan, who is an extremely intelligent would realise intelligent woman, would realise that are mounting up. that the costs are mounting up. his reputation is going downhill on this and he's really taken on more than he can chew. i think. and if they've got any sense, they'll pull out of it. but he's and if they've got any sense, timan pull out of it. but he's and if they've got any sense, timan onll out of it. but he's and if they've got any sense, timan on a out of it. but he's and if they've got any sense, timan on a mission, but he's and if they've got any sense, timan on a mission, isn't he's and if they've got any sense, timan on a mission, isn't he? a man on a mission, isn't he? and he's going to plough and i think he's going to plough on with it. >> ladies. see, it was a verdict from justice fancourt in a lot of i mean, pretty much of ways. i mean, he pretty much tore apart harry's witness statement, didn't he? well he
3:49 am
called harry a liar in in the terms that the judge uses. >> you know , when a judge says >> you know, when a judge says that somebody lacks credibility, he's saying he's a liar. and when he says that are his one aspect of the case is inconsistent with another , he's inconsistent with another, he's saying that he's making it up as he's going along and basically just, you know , trying to use just, you know, trying to use every tool to sculpt a scenario, to sculpt a bust that really doesn't exist must mean mr justice fancourt was as about harry as it's possible for a judge to be. as i say, whenever they say somebody lacks credibility , they're calling credibility, they're calling them a liar . them a liar. >> yeah, i mean, phil dampier, he really cast doubt over whether harry had invented this apparent secret deal between the late queen and the royal family and news group. newspapers was
3:50 am
yeah, well, the word he used was implausible. >> and i think, as you say, ladies, he's right that when they use, they use certain phrases, don't they? judges they put it in a very subtle way. and when when they say when they when they say implausible it means implausible, they just it means it's absolute rubbish . and, you it's absolute rubbish. and, you know, really is making a bit know, he really is making a bit of a fool of himself, i think. i'm not saying i feel sorry for him, he's making him, but he's he's making himself a bit ridiculous, him, but he's he's making hirbeelf a bit ridiculous, him, but he's he's making hirbe honest.a bit ridiculous, him, but he's he's making hirbe honest. and ridiculous, him, but he's he's making hirbe honest. and why ulous, him, but he's he's making hirbe honest. and why he's;, him, but he's he's making hirbe honest. and why he's going to be honest. and why he's going to be honest. and why he's going to plough on with this god only knows. but he's determined to do so. got, what, knows. but he's determined to do 50. got, what, 4 knows. but he's determined to do so. got, what, 4 or 5 so. and he's got, what, 4 or 5 other cases to come up so goodness knows what's going to happen to happen when they all come to court. c, you believe that >> lady c, do you believe that there was a secret agreement ? there was a secret agreement? >> absolutely not. there was no secret agreement . you know, secret agreement. you know, harry has come up with a scenario. well, actually , i scenario. well, actually, i suspect of what harry said that day . sherborne is the one who day. sherborne is the one who came up with that secret agreement. i don't think harry
3:51 am
came up with it. if you listen very. if you listened , i should very. if you listened, i should say very carefully to harry's evidence , it would appear to any evidence, it would appear to any reasonable person that david sherborne is the one who came up with it . and david sherborne has with it. and david sherborne has sculpted this whole thing to try to force through on behalf of hugh grant and the hacked off people censorship, which since the politicians have declined to have privacy laws through legislation. he is david sherborne and his his clients are trying to have it created through the legislation, not the legislate , the legal process . legislate, the legal process. and i suspect that david sherborne has sculpted an awful lot of this and harry has gone along with it and this is actually deeply disturbing
3:52 am
going, okay, well look, i do have to say, i do have to say, of course, that harry would have signed the witness statement . signed the witness statement. >> so that is him saying in court that that is his belief of what happened . and we can't see what happened. and we can't see suggest that that david sherborne , who is certainly sherborne, who is certainly a slippery guy, but we can't suggest that he has put words into harry's mouth . however, into harry's mouth. however, phil, there is a statute of limitations, isn't there? and it it sort of is six years. and so it's not sort of six years. sorry, it is six years. so at the end of the day, doesn't this prove that harry thinks he's above the law for he's been badly advice, hasn't he? >> he's his argument was that, you know, the statue of limitations hadn't run out because he was delaying the court proceedings for him and prince william because of this agreement . and, you know, the agreement. and, you know, the judge has just thrown that out and he's now missed the boat. so, you know, he can't come back and complain. now, he's been
3:53 am
badly advised. and, know, badly advised. and, you know, he's pay the he's going to have to pay the consequence. it's going to be fascinating see happens fascinating to see what happens in whether we'll get in january, whether we'll get the of the mirror by the result of the mirror one by january as well. that will be fascinating see. fascinating to see. >> and of course, it's the same judge. same judge judge. it's the same judge that's good, that's not looking that good, i would for harry. lady would say, for harry. lady c, can just touch on the can we just touch on the personal this? because personal side of this? because harry is obviously on this mission . he determined to mission. he is determined to continue these court cases. continue with these court cases. what are you hearing about whether meghan remains as committed because , of course, committed because, of course, these sort of cases very costly, both financially but also psychologically? lady c yeah . psychologically? lady c yeah. >> yes. well, the fact of the matter is, has harry and meghan have from from the 14th of jan 20, 2020, i think it is. or is it 2019? uh, anyway the 14th of january, a very important date. they have been on a mission to shut down, not only the press ,
3:54 am
shut down, not only the press, but the me, the social media. and i'm my understanding is that although she would love to have her hands on more money, that the fact of the matter is that she backs him. and remember harry's evidence was that he is doing this for meghan. let's be clear about that. and also to harry also , his evidence was harry also, his evidence was that all of this was suggested to him by david sherborne. >> now, good point , lady. >> now, good point, lady. >> now, good point, lady. >> colin campbell. >> colin campbell. >> phil dampier, my royal master . brilliant insight, as ever. thank you both so much. but coming up, he's the brexit giant who doesn't miss his highly influential words. tory grandee lord david frost has a stark warning for what could become a socialist britain . he's live in socialist britain. he's live in the studio, very shortly. but next, nigel farage is on the bnnk next, nigel farage is on the brink of securing major banking reforms that will protect brits from creeping authoritarianism .

4:06 am
this isn't about any one individual. values . individual. it's about values. do you believe in free speech and to not be discriminated against because of your legally held views? do you believe in privacy , particularly on matters privacy, particularly on matters as sensitive as your financial information? those are the values and the questions at stake here, and that's why i said what did. said what i did. >> jenkins, your >> so, andrew jenkins, your leader, they're not to prepared back howard davies. do you think he should go as natwest chair? >> i'm completely i think like with natwest as well, dan that if they've been proven to have broken rules in the law, then they all should resign and the whole board. yes, whole board has got to go . yeah, definitely. has got to go. yeah, definitely. >> and what about rose? should she, should she receive this £5 million severance package ? million severance package? >> i mean, i personally don't think i mean, surely with a think so. i mean, surely with a break of confidentiality , surely break of confidentiality, surely that's gross misconduct. and surely that is , you know, surely that is, you know, actually going into gdpr rules.
4:07 am
and i think what message does it send to other employees of banking groups if she's rewarded, if she's rewarded like that, it's not good. >> shaun bailey where do you stand on on the board and mr davies because really telling that sunak wasn't prepared at to all express his confidence. >> it's quite clear the prime minister did not back him in any way at all. he sort of left him in the wind. twist my take on this will be, though, we have to be a little bit careful because we the in particular we on the right in particular have faced so many calls you have faced so many calls to, you know, write us out know, to write us out of history, you know, cancel us. history, you know, to cancel us. and it's great to pursue and yes, it's great to pursue people on the other side. and yes , they absolutely yes, they have absolutely performed wrong . but performed the wrong. but i sometimes worry that we are now validating cancel culture and we need to be careful about that. but because what i've seen about people on the left, they're very ready cancel all of us. but ready to cancel all of us. but when the shoe's on the other foot, they're bit foot, they're a little bit reticent. and think that's reticent. and i think that's something need to have something that we need to have a look
4:08 am
something that we need to have a loo but you think sean, >> but don't you think sean, though, if like i if they though, if like i said, if they are have broken rules are proven to have broken rules and laws, then they should and the laws, then they should resign and the laws, then they should resiwell, because what it >> well, yeah, because what it is, about seriousness. is, it's about the seriousness. >> innocent proven >> it is innocent and proven guilty completely, right. >> that's thing is that >> and that's the thing is that we've the notion. we've lost the notion. >> thing is, admitted >> the thing is, she admitted it, she? it, didn't she? >> she did. >> she did. >> you talk about the >> but when you talk about the board, the notion of board, we've lost the notion of innocent until proven guilty. >> it. innocent until proven guilty. >> the it. innocent until proven guilty. >> the issue it. innocent until proven guilty. >> the issue is, it. innocent until proven guilty. >> the issue is, is it. innocent until proven guilty. >> the issue is, is that it. innocent until proven guilty. >> the issue is, is that thet. and the issue is, is that the board stood by her. no, i get it. >> i get it. but all i'm saying, i'm not saying they shouldn't go. they go. the point go. they can go. but the point i'm to make, let's make i'm trying to make, let's make sure the rules same. sure the rules are the same. because, i mean, you are. >> i mean a partner. you are worried about that. you feel like this a witch hunt. worried about that. you feel like now a witch hunt. worried about that. you feel like now it a witch hunt. worried about that. you feel like now it makesh hunt. worried about that. you feel like now it makes me|nt. worried about that. you feel like now it makes me feel >> now it makes me feel uncomfortable. how far this baying for blood has gone. she made a mistake. she did the dignified thing and resigned. she's gone. if you look at her history , 30 years of service to history, 30 years of service to one company, that's a very loyal employee. she increased natwest profits. she reduced public ownership in natwest. she saved the taxpayer money. she did a
4:09 am
good job. >> you probably think she should get a bonus for banking farage. >> well, let's see who's my greatest. britain tonight. but can just come in there, please? >> how would you feel then, if. if you know , your confidential if you know, your confidential information was being passed on to else? i mean, to be to somebody else? i mean, to be published media? published in the media? absolutely. mean, i applied absolutely. i mean, i applied for three. well, i applied with three banks for a new account recently in the last three months. and it took 6 or 7 weeks to get answers back. and i actually got rejected . so i do actually got rejected. so i do all 3—3 three of them. >> but there's a big issue, isn't there? >> i do wonder whether politically affiliated people do struggle. >> yes. so are you a politically exposed person? yes. because you're a former minister. but i mean, that's a huge issue, too, isn't it? mean, i find i find isn't it? i mean, i find i find this whole so chilling. so this whole thing so chilling. so here we have dame andrea jenkyns, you know, recent be given that great honour as well. you were a former education minister up until relatively recently and you applied for a new account with three banks and
4:10 am
all three rejected you. can you say which banks? >> i wouldn't say happy to tell you off air, but one of them was an online only and two high street. >> and even the online even the onune >> and even the online even the online one turned you down. so that's that's why i think what we have to look at here is how each individual case dealt with. >> if you look at the maitlis comments where is she when someone on the left is found to. >> but but what's so problematic but what's so problematic, though, de—man. i mean, though, isn't de—man. i mean, what she's incorrect about that he was and i explained earlier, we're going back into we're not going to go back into that. but what's a problematic about this with andrea is actually we don't know why andrea been rejected. andrea has been rejected. have you rejected ? because over you been rejected? because over the course of or the course of those 6 or 7 weeks, those banks are preparing a dossier on your views, which could include the fact that you were an outspoken brexiteer, for example , you have made some example, you have made some social commentary that perhaps falls into the anti woke area, which was pointed out by farage. and the problem is we don't know. we don't the banks, they
4:11 am
defend that as also almost risk management in a way that they have the right to look at their potential clients. >> course, do. potential clients. >> but :ourse, do. potential clients. >> but but,a, do. potential clients. >> but but, but do. potential clients. >> but but, but butio. potential clients. >> but but, but but let's look at this. >> private banks for you. >> private banks for you. >> look this. let's >> but let's look at this. let's look this right. why nigel's look at this right. why nigel's experience is important is because the dossier. right. the dossier. someone sat in the office and went through his political goings on. they didn't go gains go through his financial gains on that and that leads and on and that and that leads and of course leads to doubt. indeed. >> and of course, no is >> and of course, no one is safe. well no, no one is safe. >> and of course, andrea with nigel, to find out nigel, he was able to find out the information about what they did because a subject access did because of a subject access request. you can request. do you know if you can do the same just for your do the same thing just for your applications or can you not? because a because you weren't actually a member because you weren't actually a memdon't know. i'd to >> i don't know. i'd have to find out because worth find out because it's worth looking at. >> that's a busy shredding all that information speak. that information as we speak. that is being that information is being shredded speak. now, look, i call out joe >> now, look, i call out joe biden's director trick gaffes enough this show. so enough times on this show. so it's do same it's only fair i do the same when it comes to his adversaries. this is the moment, really shocking moment, actually, where the us senate republican mitch republican leader mitch mcconnell, froze
4:12 am
mcconnell, he's 81. mr he froze like during press like a statue during a press conference, fears for conference, sparking fears for his health. this week. >> there's been good bipartisan cooperation at and a string of . cooperation at and a string of. nba . nba. >> okay, wait a minute . are you >> okay, wait a minute. are you good ? good? >> okay. okay. mitch just had anything else you want to say or should we go back to your office? do you want to say anything else to the press ? go anything else to the press? go back to the. go ahead, john. we'll take a break now. >> mcconnell returned to the press at 12 minutes later to take questions, insisting he was fine. >> earlier this year, he was out of the senate , the upper chamber of the senate, the upper chamber of the senate, the upper chamber of congress, for almost six weeks when he fell, hit his head and suffered concussion at a dinner event with joe biden's
4:13 am
pubuc dinner event with joe biden's public cognitive decline now a regular occurrence, questions are being asked whether there should maybe be some sort of upper age limit for us politicians . however, though, upper age limit for us politicietrump,wever, though, upper age limit for us politicietrump, aged', though, upper age limit for us politicietrump, aged 77,iough, upper age limit for us politicietrump, aged 77, hejh, upper age limit for us politicietrump, aged 77, he says donald trump, aged 77, he says he's the fittest and sharpest of the lot that was very worrying to watch, though, wasn't it? amy depher shaun bailey. to watch, though, wasn't it? amy depher shaun bailey . andrea depher shaun bailey. andrea jenkyns do stand by because coming up, a write on university holds free tai chi classes for their so—called global majority staff in a bid to tackle racism. and that means banning white people. so why so what do you think? are they peddling racism and division ? nana akua think and division? nana akua think so. my superstar panel will debate it shortly . but first, debate it shortly. but first, he's the tory grandee who many want to become an mp and even the next party leader leading brexiteer and the conservative with common sense. lord david frost joins me live for an exclusive interview on britain's looming downfall straight after this .
4:17 am
through until 7:00 this evening. gb news is the people's. through until 7:00 this evening. gb news is the people's . channel gb news is the people's. channel >> fleet street kingpin kelvin mackenzie. coming up . but first, mackenzie. coming up. but first, time for former brexit secretary lord david frost and the banking scandal blown wide open by nigel farage has shaken the nation this week. but not everybody is sympathetic to the debunked brexit broker. when quizzed by sky news , labour's shadow sky news, labour's shadow international trade secretary , international trade secretary, nick thomas—symonds referred used to support the government's
4:18 am
position that the banks responsible for targeting farage over his political views had serious questions to answer. watch. well it's astonishing, isn't it , to see last night the isn't it, to see last night the chancellor of the exchequer and the prime minister here, under pressure from the outside weighing in so quickly against a business leader like dame alison rose when you think about the situations we've had in government, whether it is with nadhim zahawi, whether it is with gavin williamson, whether it is with dominic raab, when the government certainly hasn't been holding itself to that same standard . now that led lord standard. now that led lord frost to accuse labour of not minding of private companies, punish you for your political opinions as britain's leftists refused to condemn the disgraceful de—man king of farage. great to have you back in the studio . lord frost. i in the studio. lord frost. i think actually the reaction from labour overall has been very muted. i mean, rachel reeves ,
4:19 am
muted. i mean, rachel reeves, the shadow chancellor , tried to the shadow chancellor, tried to make this an issue of identity politics, talking about we should leave alison rose alone because she's a woman. so it really does feel like the spectre of a socialist government will put freedom of speech at risk in so many ways . speech at risk in so many ways. >> yeah, i think so. >> yeah, i think so. >> and what was so revealing about those comments yesterday is that shows what labour is that it shows what labour does instinctively . in the end, does instinctively. in the end, keir starmer had to come in a very grudgingly say , well, there very grudgingly say, well, there is a point of principle here, and it was grudging. it was, it was very grudging, but and he could see how much damage was being done and this has being done and what this has revealed just how thin revealed is just how thin the commitment free speech of commitment of free speech of labour to free speech really is . they could not bring themselves to acknowledge that there point of principle there was a point of principle involved here. i mean, when did it happen that the labour party suddenly became the supporters of big business against of business big business against the rights of ordinary people in this country? i don't think that's what the labour party was set up to do, but that's what they've become how that
4:20 am
set up to do, but that's what the bizarre? ome how that be bizarre? >> completely bizarre. >> completely bizarre. >> the that >> and look, the issue that we've got that this doesn't we've got is that this doesn't end the banks, does it? if end with the banks, does it? if the banks are allowed to get away with this pernicious investigation of ordinary people's political views to decide whether they'll provided a service or not, this could spread to so many other institutions to public bodies , institutions to public bodies, to other businesses. and i think there has to be a bottom line, doesn't it? >> i mean, yeah, they it does. and it's already happened . we and it's already happened. we already know it. i mean, it was an open secret. i think that people on the right found it difficult to get bank accounts. and heard bit about and we've just heard a bit about that. but we know that it's that. but we all know that it's very difficult you hold very difficult if you hold certain i mean, try certain opinions. i mean, try and get trying. getting a job in the in a university, if you are on the right for example, or anywhere in the public sector , anywhere in the public sector, you anywhere in the public sector, you pay anywhere in the public sector, you pay lip service to you have to pay lip service to this. what's becoming a state ideology. and that is just wrong. we need to get politics out of civil society and allow people to speak as they wish
4:21 am
once again. >> so what can be done to do that ? that? >> well, i think two things. i think we need to repeal or at least significantly amend the equality act that's at the root of a lot of the damage, the diversity , the equity, the group diversity, the equity, the group rights , the policing of speech. rights, the policing of speech. it's a big part of it. and obviously we've been in power 13 years, really ought to have done that by now. but but there you are, the other thing we can do is pass a free speech, act something a bit like the american first amendment that says , you know, you are allowed says, you know, you are allowed to speak freely except in certain very defined conditions . and i regret that we've come to need that because in this country we've had a strong tradition of free speech. but unfortunately , it looks like it unfortunately, it looks like it is necessary now . is necessary now. >> well, it is necessary and one of the issues where we see this are as i guess it's so difficult to speak out against the orthodoxy is when it comes to climate change. and what i
4:22 am
describe as the deranged march towards net zero. and actually, you've experience it this week because you told the house of lords that the fall in deaths related to cold temperatures had done more than offset any increase in the number of deaths associated with warmer temperatures since the start of the millennium . explaining the millennium. explaining a simple fact that seven times more people in the uk have died from cold than from heat . you from cold than from heat. you have been absolutely hauled over the coals by by the climate extremists who seem to dominate the mainstream media now , can the mainstream media now, can you explain a little bit about what you were talking about and how this plays in to where the conservative party needs to go on net zero? >> yeah, absolutely. well, i mean, simple fact , as you mean, it's a simple fact, as you say. and in fact, what i was saying, quoting from this say. and in fact, what i was sayirtechnicalquoting from this say. and in fact, what i was sayirtechnical government this very technical government department, the government actuary's department, it wasn't even words. it was the civil even my words. it was the civil service. it's an accepted
4:23 am
service. so it's an accepted fact. but you're right. i think what is happening, fact. but you're right. i think what is happening , to know what what is happening, to know what is happening is that the people who are invested in net zero as this great project are worried that it's beginning to attract a bit of criticism that maybe people aren't up for this in quite the way that they used to be. and so what they're doing is doubung be. and so what they're doing is doubling down. they're trying to stigmatise, they're trying to shout people who say shout down people who say something different and so you're a climate change denier. >> exactly what >> they say that's exactly what they say. >> and worse, sometimes and i can take it. we've all got to live with that because it is really important that this gets debated proper , see what's debated proper, see what's happening in this country is that i mean , it's got that i mean, it's got established somehow that as if britain is not doing anything about climate change, we are doing a lot our emissions. >> see the western world, yeah, our emissions have fallen by half since 2000. >> we are spending billions and billions, yet it's got somehow it's to establish that we're it's got to establish that we're not doing enough. now we're
4:24 am
reaching crunch point. people are beginning to see the things that are coming . that are coming. >> can we talk about the specifics? because as i haven't really been clear this week from sunak and gove are surely we surely we cannot stick to this mad deadline . of 2032 ban all mad deadline. of 2032 ban all new diesel and petrol cars. it's just not realistic, is it? >> well , i do just not realistic, is it? >> well, i do think it is. i think what we're seeing now is that 2050 is not that far away . that 2050 is not that far away. 2030 is starting to get pretty close as people are realising that we are not ready. the technology is not ready. the grid, the charging grid is not ready and people are beginning to see that and beginning to get worried. and i think we're beginning to see the first glimmers of that , that sort of glimmers of that, that sort of debate. so i think we should be honest now and start to postpone some of these deadlines rather than crashing into the wall, which is going to happen if we just carry on moving forward. >> so what do you make of it
4:25 am
when folk like joe biden says the climate threat is now existential for the globe, the united nations general secretary says it's still possible to limit damage with action. now we're getting these dumas day messages constantly about i saw in the times today, you know , we in the times today, you know, we could enter a new ice age within the next century. what's what's going on with these messages? what's the aim? is the aim for them to scare us? >> i think there is an attempt to scare us, obviously. and this this here is not borne this hysteria here is not borne out, i think, by the science we saw the guy who won the nobel prize for physics last year saying he didn't believe there was a climate crisis . saying he didn't believe there was a climate crisis. he is getting speaking engagements getting his speaking engagements banned people don't want banned because people don't want to he's nobel to hear it. yeah, he's a nobel prize winner , so i don't think prize winner, so i don't think we are in a climate crisis or emergency . see, climate change emergency. see, climate change is a problem . it's one that we is a problem. it's one that we can master if we don't handicap ourselves . cars don't stop ourselves. cars don't stop growing. do sensible things. well, yeah. >> look at what we've done. and
4:26 am
actually it was it was your party under thatcher that really started this responsible action, which i think has put the uk at the forefront of the world. i don't know why all of these extremists don't talk about china india because that's china and india because that's really where their focus should be. are not even close to be. we are not even close to being problem. being the problem. >> difference. >> it makes no difference. i mean, blair said this mean, tony blair said this today. tony says today. even tony blair says we're tiny part of the we're only a tiny part of the problem way did . problem the way he did. >> he also said today that we're going re—enter the european union. >> well, even a stopped clock is twice is right. occasionally >> now, look, i've just got to talk some raw politics because, of course, you're currently a member of the house of lords. lots of thinking that perhaps after the next election, you might want to throw your hat into the ring. you might be a brilliant tory party leader in opposition. obviously, in to order do that, lord frost, you've got to become an mp. you are considering this at the moment. are you prepared to run
4:27 am
at the next election as an mp to give you that chance to run for leader in the future? >> well, it's not about running for leader. that's something that's said about me. it's not anything say or think in anything i say or think is in anything i say or think is in any way realistic. reason any way realistic. the reason i want to go into the commons is that's real politics is. that's where real politics is. that's where you make things happen where i think happen and that's where i think i've still something i've still got something to contribute. yes , i'm still contribute. so yes, i'm still i'm the candidates list. i'm on the candidates list. i haven't applied for any seats yet. are you going to? but i to . hope i'm in touch with a number of seats who are interested in seeing whether i would would become their candidate and will will keep talking. and perhaps one of these is going to come right in these is going to come right in the next few months. >> brilliant. well, we will keep across it. good luck, lord david frost, you in the frost, great to have you in the studio . fleet street studio tonight. a fleet street legend, he's legend, kelvin mackenzie, he's on let rip at prince on standby to let rip at prince harry's latest legal wrangle. and i'll crown my last of the week, too. first, though, the weather that warm feeling inside from boxt boilers proud sponsors

it's divisive . it's derogatory. it's divisive. it's derogatory. >> and what does it mean, sean? >> and what does it mean, sean? >> i couldn't tell you, but what i can tell you, it will have problems. so, for instance, they talk global majority talk about these global majority only te tai chi classes to de—stress from racism. but of course, within that global majority, you will have racism . majority, you will have racism. you'll have racists in there who historic we have had huge problems. so what are they going to do about that? and the idea that somehow all white people are oppressive, you know, oppressors , i mean, the mind oppressors, i mean, the mind boggles how in hell do you expect to get people together and people to work together when you're talking about race, people often use the platform to punish. black people have had a horrible time historically with racism, but to punish people will not resolve it. we need to be looking at reconciliation, which means including people. this global majority is an exclusive group. >> i mean, how do you like this term, the global majority? do you understand what it means? >> i definitely don't
4:37 am
>> well, i definitely don't agree that agree with nana that it's anything sinister. think anything sinister. i do. i think that language changes and it progresses. >> so what does it mean ? >> so what does it mean? >> so what does it mean? >> what does it mean? >> what does it mean? >> the global majority of the of the global population are non—white. so if you are in an ethnic minority , you're in the ethnic minority, you're in the global majority rmt but everybody, everybody is a minority in the context of the of everybody else on the globe. it's just intended to feel like an empowering move. >> but you can flip that on its head. amy if 85% are non—white, then where are the minority? so are we. you know, it's just crazy. >> would you be would you be happy if white people started describing themselves as the persecuted minority, the way that we talk about race has changed so much, the way we the things we call people of ethnic minorities in the in the media, we wouldn't even say that now. >> we'd be cancelled completely. so these terms change. and this is just at the. but you don't
4:38 am
like this progressive one? >> no, because. because to me, by lumping groups of people in one group, it's actually not celebrating the individual. and diversity and diversity . yeah. diversity and diversity. yeah. and like sean already said, that you've got groups within that group who hate each other. you've got groups within that group who hate each other . well, yes. >> and so. but amy, i think i think you do understand my point because i saw you had a little smile on your face. >> no, i thought when i when i when i said that it if white people started describing themselves as the persecuted minority because we up only minority because we make up only 15% of the global population, you wouldn't with that? you wouldn't be happy with that? >> wouldn't be accurate >> well, it wouldn't be accurate , would it? >> not insignificant >> now, a not insignificant question for you we near the question for you as we near the end the week, are we alone in end of the week, are we alone in the universe former the universe? one former us intelligence official thinks not. sensationally blowing not. after sensationally blowing the lid on what he calls a multi—decade government plot to retrieve reverse engineer retrieve and reverse engineer ufos and cover up evidence of auen ufos and cover up evidence of alien life. so the whistleblower david grush, told a stunned capitol hill audience in
4:39 am
washington, dc that the us government had collected crashed auen government had collected crashed alien spacecraft and evidence of extraterrestrial life since the 1930. as if you believe we have crashed crash , it stated crashed crash, it stated earlier, do we have the bodies of the pilots who piloted this craft? >> as i've stated publicly already in my news nation interview, biologics came with some of these recoveries. yeah >> were they, i guess, human or non—human biologics ? non—human biologics? >> non—human? and that was the assessment of people with direct knowledge on the program i talked to that are currently still on the program. um, i mean , shaun bailey, i absolutely believe in alien life. >> i absolutely believe there's been cover ups and we need to know about it. >> this intent, i cannot believe grown people with really serious careers are peddling this nonsense. sure i'm going to need some really in—depth , reputable some really in—depth, reputable evidence before i get on board. >> andrea, look at what he was
4:40 am
saying. i'm sorry. do you do you believe in e.t . believe in e.t. >> i mean, i believe i mean , >> i mean, i believe i mean, look at the size of the universe and this is just one universe. i think there's got to be forces . think there's got to be forces. >> let's go. and do you know what i can't wait for this all to come true. because then you won't just be stopping the boats. the spaceship. >> listen. >> listen. >> well, maybe they can join global majority. >> get straight. >> let's get this straight. >> let's get this straight. >> uniqueness nature the >> uniqueness in nature is the thing. billion thing. there are 7 billion people planet. all people on this planet. we all have ten fingers and ten toes. none of our fingerprints. have ten fingers and ten toes. none of our fingerprints . what none of our fingerprints. what are they hiding then? >> what are they hiding? >> what are they hiding? >> they're hiding . why not >> maybe they're hiding. why not let us know? maybe they're hiding technology. hiding military technology. the files maybe hide. but the point is, i'm going need some live is, i'm going to need some live evidence on this one. >> live? if there is. >> live? if there is. >> absolutely believe it. >> absolutely believe it. >> me too. and if there is a >> and me too. and if there is a cover up, though, i think we do need to see more transparency, see, we see, like we need to see we should have seen more transparency with the war, transparency with the iraq war, with covid. there's any with covid. and if there's any assassination , absolutely agree. >> we still haven't seen all of. >> we still haven't seen all of. >> that's great.
4:41 am
>> that's great. >> but you are talking about little green men from no, little green men from mars. no, no. i'm going to need to talk to one green men, one of those little green men, not cia agent selling it for. >> i hope you see. born the >> i hope you see. born on the way week, bailey way home next week, shaun bailey andrea jenkins, stand by. >> coming two of >> he's coming up. two of britain's wokeist women have been tonight's been nominated in tonight's greatest britain union jackass for awful take on the greatest britain union jackass for faragejl take on the greatest britain union jackass for farage bankingn the greatest britain union jackass for farage banking scandal. nigel farage banking scandal. i'll tell you who shortly. but first, in uncanceled, the only man qualified to dissect prince harry's insane war on the british press. former sun editor kelvin mackenzie. after the duke lost a key legal battle against the publisher of kelvin's former papen the publisher of kelvin's former paper. harry to going regret paper. is harry to going regret his tabloid tread ? or kelvin his tabloid tread? or kelvin will also get stuck into the bank fatcats falling like flies amid the farage scandal. we're back in just two minutes time. don't go anywhere .
4:44 am
it's time now for uncancel. and this is where britain's top commentators speak out on controversial issues without the fear of the cancel culture sweeping the rest of the media. and while meghan markle is plotting domination and plotting world domination and a potential run at the white house, prince bid to house, prince harry's bid to destroy free press suffered destroy the free press suffered a huge blow as was a huge blow today as he was defeated in a legal row against the publisher of the sun. his big phone hacking claim against news group newspapers was dramatically out and dramatically thrown out and criticise by an unimpressed judge, the paper judge, leaving the paper celebrating a significant victory . however, harry's other victory. however, harry's other allegations that the sun used a legal methods to obtain stories, including using private investigators, will still go to trial at the high court next yeah trial at the high court next year. it's one of three major claims harry's making against other british tabloids. so kelvin mackenzie, is harry to going regret this tabloid trench war? is especially given justice fan court, i thought was absolutely in his assessment of
4:45 am
his witness statement today, which came pretty close to calling it a pack of baloney . he calling it a pack of baloney. he . yes he was ill advised , used . yes he was ill advised, used to ever go into court. >> it must have cost him a fortune. i mean, he's got a fortune. i mean, he's got a fortune. thanks to his mother and probably thanks to those idiots that spotify . but the idiots that spotify. but the truth about the matter is that the judge said that actually his allegation that there was a deal between the royal family, which i imagine he meant the queen elizabeth, he meant queen elizabeth, he meant queen elizabeth and that and rupert murdoch, that there would be no action on the tabloid allegations until after after the other allegations were dealt with was a ridiculous and absurd third allegation. and further than that, actually , he had no than that, actually, he had no evidence . and the point that the evidence. and the point that the judge made was, well, where was
4:46 am
the evidence? you didn't have any. so he threw that out. he still can go to court on the other one, which is basically blagging and that kind of thing . and i don't know whether he's going to win or lose on that, but knew on the hacking he but he knew on the hacking he was but the point was going to lose. but the point about this case has nothing to do with win or lose. it's to do with public city. that is with global public city. that is what harry's ambition is. it's part of his. it's part of his d'etat , creation of tabloid d'etat, creation of tabloid journalists like you and me and do you think it's working, kelvin ? nothing will work for kelvin? nothing will work for harry. honestly, he could be given £20 million and get free food for life from the high court . the people of this court. the people of this country have made their decision. they don't like him and they don't like his missus. it's the end of it. >> okay, now look, kelvin, the farage banking scandal keeps developing. of course, cuts . developing. of course, cuts. chief executive peter flavell fell on his sword today after the resignation of the natwest ceo, dame alison rose. nigel now
4:47 am
wants the group chairman howard davies, gone. next is he going to get a full house? kelvin i think he might well do so tomorrow. >> natwest will announce. unfortunately for them , very unfortunately for them, very high profits, right ? very good high profits, right? very good profits because they do what all banks do directly. interest rates go up, their profits go up because they don't give the savers as much as they charge you and i for our houses, our mortgages, etcetera. right after that happens, he's in a great degree of trouble. he will definitely have to step down. i have never seen a chairman an of such an illustrious organisation as a bank makes such a fool of himself. he was warned before the board meeting . for god's the board meeting. for god's sake, just let rose go and move on. right. instead of that, he gave a v—sign to number 10 and actually to the chancellor and actually to the chancellor and actually out went rose. anyway, in the next emergency board meeting and howard davies is
4:48 am
going to go so unbelievably nigel farage has had the great most political treble i have seen in my whole life. what a guy ' seen in my whole life. what a guy , what a tribute to him. and guy, what a tribute to him. and were it not for him having a platform form on gb news, he'd be in the same position that the ordinary mugs who are sitting here watching, watching your output tonight are in. you have no power unless you have the media behind you . media behind you. >> and i guess the point is, kelvin, he is now going to use that platform to campaign, not just for banks actually to judge or deplatform customers because of their political views, but lots of other organisations too, because this is creeping across our public life. >> he's in a he's in a great position now because these issues are not left or right. they are all of us and honestly, for nigel, it's sensational. i
4:49 am
think for gb news who decided actually to hire nigel even although he'd been pushed out by lbc and rebekah brooks at news uk , basically didn't return his uk, basically didn't return his calls , didn't want to hire him. calls, didn't want to hire him. despite wooing him prior to him leaving lbc on hinckley gb news if there isn't a gb news around in ten years time, our country will be in a sad state. >> well, two are very proud of the fact that my very first show on this channel, which was on the very first broadcasting night of this channel, not a night of this channel, not a night i remember fondly, kelvin, but one of my first guests was nigel launching in his segment what the farage. and i think he has always been an important voice. there was lots of criticism about this channel signing him up, but what he has done shows why it's so important that he is part of this network. >> oh yeah. no, it's been a stunning victory, a victory that
4:50 am
icannot stunning victory, a victory that i cannot ever remember, ever having in politics. i mean , having in politics. i mean, you're used to talking to politicians . they themselves politicians. they themselves don't have many victories. a guy wandering around in a tv studio manages to humble one of the great banks of the world and also sling out a load of executives who made shocking decisions . great credit. decisions. great credit. >> yeah. and there's going to be real change from this because other banks are going to think before they do the same thing. kelvin mackenzie on cancelled. great to talk. we'll see you monday time now monday night. but it's time now to tonight's to reveal tonight's greatest britain jackass my britain and union jackass my superstar panel returned dame andrea jenkins, who's your nominee for tonight's greatest britain, please , dan, my nominee britain, please, dan, my nominee is andrew griffiths. >> the minister of treasury, minister and minister of for cities . he's minister and minister of for cities. he's been minister and minister of for cities . he's been actually since cities. he's been actually since farage came public. he's been writing to the banks and really defending free speech and not being put. can muscled,
