also found guilty of child cruelty and causing or allowing her baby's death outside derbyshire crown court detective inspector paul bullock said he hopes the verdict will bring closure for jacob's wider family i >> -- >> it is clear from the evidence found on gemma barton and craig crouch's phones through text messages, videos and audio recordings that they were equally responsible for the culture of cruelty that was inflicted on baby jacob. as a father , i cannot comprehend what father, i cannot comprehend what happened behind closed doors and my thoughts remain with jacob's wider family , who have been left wider family, who have been left devastated by his death . i hope devastated by his death. i hope that today's verdict brings with it a degree of closure for them and that it begins the process of them being able to grieve for jacob and remember the happier times with much loved child . times with a much loved child. >> now, labour supporting unions have been accused of attempting to block the use of the bibby stockholm home to house asylum seekers . a government seekers. a government source today described it as a betrayal of the country and of the british people. comes british people. and it comes

after brigades union after the fire brigades union labelled the barge a potential death trap and requested an urgent meeting with the home secretary about overcrowding and fire exit concerns. this morning , though, a van was seen delivering food products to the floating vessel , delivering food products to the floating vessel, but it could be next week before any asylum seekers arrive in the united states. the former president donald trump, whose facing four new criminal charges, will appearin new criminal charges, will appear in court tomorrow. he's accused of conspiring to defraud the united states by preventing congress from certifying joe biden's victory after the 2020 election. prosecutors are also trying to link the former president to the capitol hill riots . it's the third time in riots. it's the third time in four months trump's been charged as he campaigns to regain his presidency . steve gill was presidency. steve gill was a former adviser to the clinton and bush administrations . he and bush administrations. he thinks it's a matter of free speech. >> the charges are really very scant, though. when you look at

what what there's actually contained in these four indictments, they're trying to create donald trump's freedom of speech to question the veracity of this election, the credibility of that election, and that his free speech. right to do so, trying to criminalise thatis to do so, trying to criminalise that is beyond anything that us law does as a court has ruled that a rape suspect who's accused of faking his own death to avoid justice can be extradited. >> nicholas rossi's wanted in the united states for allegedly raping a woman in 2008. he was arrested in glasgow in 2021, but claimed it was a case of mistaken identity and that he's actually an irish orphan called arthur knight . the ruling at arthur knight. the ruling at edinburgh sheriff court will now be considered by scottish ministers . now the energy ministers. now the energy security secretary has held talks with top companies today in encouraging them to invest in renewables and carbon capture and storage . big energy giants and storage. big energy giants are being urged to invest in home—grown projects as part of

efforts to boost britain's energy security . and it comes energy security. and it comes after the prime minister announced plans to grant 100 new oil and gas licences in the uk. well, grant shapps says the uk will still meet net zero targets despite that, i think everyone supports this country's transition to net zero. >> but you cannot get there by telling people we're simply going to stop using oil and gas . well, the only way to do that would be to tell people, don't put your gas boiler on, don't drive a petrol car and do that almost instantaneously unless you do that . what you're really you do that. what you're really saying is, oh, we're not going to dig our own oil and gas. we'll import it instead. and that's basically labour's policy on this. and the problem with importing it comes with importing it is it comes with four times the amount of embedded carbon an anti—vaccine protester has been found guilty of harassment after accusing matt hancock of murdering people dunng matt hancock of murdering people during the covid pandemic.

>> geza tarjanyi from lancashire shoulder barged the former health secretary shouting conspiracy theories on two separate occasions. phones in january of this year, the senior district judge of the case said the 62 year old deliberately intimidated and harassed the mp . a preliminary preliminary study has found ai tools may be able to help in the fight against breast cancer. researchers found computer aided detection could spot signs of the disease in mammograms at a similar rate to radiologists. s. in the study, ai supported screening detected more cancer cases than standard screening without generating a high number of false positives. the nhs is now looking into how it can use this technology in its breast screening programme countrywide . you're watching gb news across the uk on your tv, in your car, on your digital radio and on your smart speaker by saying, play gb news back now though , to

play gb news back now though, to . michelle >> thanks for that , polly. you >> thanks for that, polly. you know, yeah, another day where in the news headlines we're hearing about a horrific murder of a defenceless little child again by the people that are supposed to care for them. what is wrong with people in this in society if you have a child that you cannot bring yourself to love, you do not need to hurt your own child. >> there are so many people out there on lists desperate to adopt children. let your child and be loved yet another day . and be loved yet another day. honestly, it makes me so sad as a mom and i'm sure it will resonate again with many parents as well and beyond out there anyway , joining me tonight on my anyway, joining me tonight on my panel , former brexit party mep panel, former brexit party mep martin daubney alongside me, as is the former editor of the labourlist , peter edwards. good labourlist, peter edwards. good evening, gents, to both of you. and you know the drill, don't you?ifs and you know the drill, don't you? it's not just about us here. it's about you at home and

what's on your mind tonight. you can get in touch with me all the usual ways. vaiews@gbnews.com is email me. or you can is how you email me. or you can tweet me. oh, well, actually, you sweep because it's you can't sweep me because it's not anymore, is not called twitter anymore, is it? called x. you can x me. it? it's called x. you can x me. i'm not. yeah, that doesn't sound right does it. anyway you can at gb news if can just tweet me at gb news if thatis can just tweet me at gb news if that is indeed your thing. now let's talk about the shall let's talk about the uk, shall we? kick with that? because we? kick off with that? because according poll, 76% of according to a poll, 76% of people say that the uk is becoming a worse place to live. they reckon it's because of things like higher taxes, higher nhs waiting lists and so on and so forth . this is a survey, by so forth. this is a survey, by the way, conducted by ipsos . it the way, conducted by ipsos. it got me wondering, which is why i've started with this tonight , i've started with this tonight, martin, because i often say on this program in many ways, i cannot remember life. i mean, it sounds a bit dramatic, but things being as bad in this country because if i rang the police today, you know, if there was an issue, whatever i wouldn't really think that turn up. if i rang an ambulance , i'd

up. if i rang an ambulance, i'd worry that they wouldn't arrive. i dread to think what goes on in some of our schools as we've just been talking about, sky high we've got economic high taxes. we've got economic problems way, problems coming our way, problems coming our way, problems housing problems in the housing situation so on so situation and so on and so forth. what am i missing? >> i don't think you're missing anything. a lot of anything. i speak to a lot of people about this. and my people about this. and even my own family. >> you know, there's feeling >> you know, there's a feeling that britain's best days are behind is the morose behind us, which is the morose thing you think thing to say when you think about it. >> and that's like to be >> and that's not like to be some sort of little england. let's flags and let's wave our union flags and pretend 1945. again, it's pretend it's 1945. again, it's a recognition of fact that recognition of the fact that britain has changed the fabric of has changed of our society, has changed sometimes to the point where communities longer communities are no longer recognisable it's universal recognisable. and it's universal to we have high tax and poor to say we have high tax and poor health across europe because of lockdowns. decimated our lockdowns. we decimated our economy. trillions in debt and at the mercy of covid. that's across the board. people are also unhappy in places like france, places like sweden. and the common factor is uncontrolled immigration . it uncontrolled immigration. it simply is. and the reason for thatis simply is. and the reason for that is the pace of change and the volume of change in the uk

where we are accepting 606 net thousand per year, that's a city the size of manchester. when we run the brexit campaign , the run the brexit campaign, the referendum way back in 2016, we speaking to voters the length and breadth of britain. they weren't racist or unwelcoming . weren't racist or unwelcoming. they things are just they were saying things are just changing, really quickly and i don't recognise where i live anymore. and my mate who's a plumber, can't get a job because the are cheaper and the polish lads are cheaper and there's a feeling i can't get a house we're seeing now. so situation where asylum seekers are being granted hotels and yet day veterans are being kicked out of their homes. and there's very much a feeling now that british matter. and british values don't matter. and we have be welcoming to every we have to be welcoming to every culture on earth. but we're not allowed celebrate our own for allowed to celebrate our own for fear of being called fascists. and a self flagellating and there's a self flagellating hatred at the heart of the west, not just britain, but particularly in britain. academia puts this message into our children and puts it into the media, to the civil service, to the public service. and as a consequence, a lot of brits now feel like strangers in their own

land. >> do you resonate with any of what martin was saying? do you feel like that home? feel like that at home? peter what's view all? what's your view on it all? >> well, martin's always very articulate, but to me, that's a bit and bit of an anguished and hysterical diagnosis where we are today. first of all, you know, got relatives know, i've got relatives in their so were born in their 80s, so they were born in their 80s, so they were born in the when certainly you the 30s when certainly if you lived big city, hitler's lived in a big city, hitler's bombs raining over your bombs were raining over your head. so we got to have some perspective about britain is a country lots country at peace, has lots of challenges, at peace challenges, but it's at peace and living standards have improved. let's look the improved. but let's look at the last we've had last ten years. we've had austerity, which i think labour government would have cut spending. been spending. but austerity has been a had covid, a disaster. we've had covid, which no one here is to which is not. no one here is to blame for but we've got blame for that. but we've got this unprecedented burden this unprecedented tax burden and got an inflation. and we've got an inflation. >> though, is >> because the covid though, is it the response to it because the response to covid, was a choice? yes. covid, which was a choice? yes. >> mean, let's not go >> yeah. i mean, let's not go down a covid wormhole now. i think whoever was in charge would spent a lot of money, would have spent a lot of money, especially security. especially on social security. but we've an but then finally, we've got an inflation crisis, which i'd firmly the door of the firmly lay at the door of the government because inflation is not that we've had not like the rain that we've had today. out of

today. that comes out of nowhere. comes from nowhere. it comes from government inaction. nowhere. it comes from gorl'dlment inaction. nowhere. it comes from gorl'd say1t inaction. nowhere. it comes from gorl'd say it's inaction. nowhere. it comes from gorl'd say it's not inaction. nowhere. it comes from gorl'd say it's not aboutaction. nowhere. it comes from gorl'd say it's not about is ion. so i'd say it's not about is britain a better place or worse. but i think from everyone i speak from everything speak to and from everything i read, we're certainly a poorer country and being makes country and being poor makes your harder part. your life a lot harder part. >> problem we don't rally >> the problem is we don't rally around with around anything with commonality. we're now ostensibly don't ostensibly godless. we don't have that have a singular faith that unhes have a singular faith that unites more are unites us more people are atheists. we're multicultural , atheists. we're multicultural, so rally around the so we can't rally around the flag . the flag has become flag. the flag has become demonised a symbol of demonised as a symbol of a populist negative force. we don't have that in other countries where the flag is adored . and to celebrate the adored. and to celebrate the greatest britons, winston churchill is now desecrated even by saint paul's cathedral , as by saint paul's cathedral, as a white supremacist and a racist. these attacks are deliberate and they're orchestrated, and it's designed away at our they're orchestrated, and it's desigself—worth away at our they're orchestrated, and it's desigself—worth .away at our very self—worth. >> but we do that to ourselves, don't we? because so often we sit there saying britain is a racist country or will say, i don't know, we're all dowsed with white privilege and we should all feel guilty , which should all feel guilty, which doesn't resonate with me. i don't feel guilty in any way at all, but so many of us do seem

to do that to ourselves. we talk about british values . by the about british values. by the way, what would you say british values way, what would you say british val|oh, that's a great question. >> oh, that's a great question. i love to spend more i mean, i'd love to spend more time disagreeing martin, time disagreeing with martin, because rally because i think we do rally around flag and can see around the flag and i can see a flag in this studio and in many other parts society. other parts of society. >> the bbc, british values, i'd say compassion, openness , say compassion, openness, tolerance, but also a faith in institutions, not the established giant, but in institutions and which institutions and which institution that's been rocked a bit, but which institutions do you have faith in in this country ? country? >> well, what i have faith in is different. but you asked about what british values i'm asking you about institutions, which institutions do you have faith in? all its flaws and in? well, for all its flaws and despite all the scandals of the last ten years or however long, i still have faith in parliamentary democracy because britain not britain is generally not a corrupt country. and if you look at other nations, there's lots wrong with our politics, whether you're on the or the right. you're on the left or the right. i all accept that. i think we'd all accept that. but britain is not a corrupt

country and british politics is not corrupt. >> but would disagree with >> but i would disagree with that. i the beginning that. so i think the beginning of rot was the brexit of the rot was the brexit referendum, is the referendum, and that is the status working for status quo wasn't working for the they wanted the working classes. they wanted change. saw brexit as their change. they saw brexit as their chance heard to take back chance to be heard to take back control of our borders , of our control of our borders, of our laws, of our destiny . and then laws, of our destiny. and then the entire, the entire parliamentary system spent three years trying to cancel that vote to overturn it. that was when the rock sat in. it said to 17.4 million people, you don't know what you're doing, you're racist. your vote didn't count. and so what are people meant to think the democratic think about the democratic process, if when they process, peter, if when they turn for biggest single turn out for the biggest single issue there was issue mandate and there was political history and it was ignored tried ignored and tried to be cancelled labour party, cancelled by the labour party, by democrat party, by the liberal democrat party, by the liberal democrat party, by green party, bbc campaign by the green party, bbc campaign against it, the public service did an and that's why people think we wanted to be this this bright, optimistic future and the institution wouldn't allow it. the establishment wouldn't allow it. >> well, that's a vital point. and martin's always very

reasonable. he's even he says things that are completely unreasonable . and the thing that unreasonable. and the thing that puzzles me about those on the brexit side of the argument, and i referendum result, brexit side of the argument, and i don't referendum result, brexit side of the argument, and i don't want referendum result, brexit side of the argument, and i don't want anotherum result, brexit side of the argument, and i don't want another referendum is the side of is people on the brexit side of the argument, perhaps like martin and nigel they martin and nigel farage, they won they they won the referendum. they they won the referendum. they they won some distance in terms of won by some distance in terms of number of votes. brexit has happened, a brexit supporting prime minister and boris johnson won the last general election and still angry and they're still really angry and they're still really angry and unhappy about it, even though they and that's the though they won. and that's the thing. i mean, the pain thing. i mean, to me, the pain of brexit economically is only just. it's only just finished. it's only just beginning. the economic pain to get economic pain is going to get a lot worse from here. but i'm not maybe i'm accepting of that and i want to make it better. and i don't perhaps nurse a sense of grievance and anxiety that but don't perhaps nurse a sense of grie'nigeland anxiety that but don't perhaps nurse a sense of grie'nigel farage, iety that but don't perhaps nurse a sense of grie'nigel farage, we're|at but don't perhaps nurse a sense of grie'nigel farage, we're notyut like nigel farage, we're not economically on our knees because of brexit. >> because the economic >> it's because of the economic death spiral of doom death cycle, the spiral of doom of lockdowns that the economic suicide ruled the labour suicide ruled on by the labour party, the liberal democrats, party, by the liberal democrats, by tories, all of them. by the tories, by all of them. they didn't have an they we didn't have an opposition. and then that's just knocked us back into weeds.

knocked us back into the weeds. meanwhile, everything people wanted to happen in 2016 has got worse . we've got less control of worse. we've got less control of our borders. we're more in debt. and agree, brexit, it was a and i agree, brexit, it was a golden opportunity that was mismanaged botched . mismanaged and botched. >> but i think as well, homeowners ukip. i think this is one of the broken one of the key broken aspects in society because you're on the housing because if you're on the housing ladden because if you're on the housing ladder, good for high ladder, then good for you. high five know, everyone on that five you know, everyone on that ladder been on there for ladder that's been on there for a while, they've made a fair chunk of money. if you're a younger you're wanting younger person or you're wanting to bigger to perhaps get into a bigger space something that, space or something like that, it's impossible for so it's nigh on impossible for so many people get somewhere many people now to get somewhere that call their own that they can call their own home. and if you don't have a safe, stable home, if safe, secure, stable home, if you're renting from whoever or whatever your foundation isn't there. and then if you're surrounded by rental properties as well, your neighbours come and go and in and out and all the rest of it. so then you don't know your neighbours, you don't know your neighbours, you don't sense of don't have this sense of community. i think that is community. and i think that is the thing. of my the core thing. one of my viewers has got an interesting point william, to

point and william, i have to say, with you because say, i agree with you because what saying is from what you're saying is far from being the worst place to live. britain says, is best, britain he says, is the best, but anti social media, he says, is a pernicious influence, not only throughout only in britain, but throughout the the world. i do the rest of the world. i do think there's really think there's a really interesting point in the interesting point there in the role that social media plays and whether that a force to whether that has been a force to develop countries and make them happier or to perhaps happier and better or to perhaps hinder them tenors, perhaps against each other and divide us even further. get your thoughts coming in. find this a coming in. i find this a fascinating could fascinating topic. i could expand on it and do it all night, but i do have a lot i want to talk to you about. but gb views at gb news is how you get hold of me. i want your input conversation input in the conversation tonight, my next tonight, not least on my next question. it matter to you question. does it matter to you what our police officers look like? height restrictions, size of them? you will have seen today the age of them has been discussed as well. thoughts

hello there, michelle dewberry

with you till 7:00 tonight. martin daubney, peter edwards still alongside me. we were just discussing whether or not britain is better these days or worse. jazz says every area of britain is broken and it's broken. our british people's spirits . well, that's quite sad. spirits. well, that's quite sad. so here's a task for you then. i want you to tell me one thing that you think is positive about britain. martin daubney the weather or the weather today ? weather or the weather today? get out. it's pouring down. have you seen the state of my hair? i got massively rained on on the way in. >> peter, your hair looks better than mine, i should say. the whole history of british innovation penicillin, radar, the wide web. we could go the world wide web. we could go on britain has on forever. british britain has a phenomenal record inventing stuff. >> $- fin- fin— >> yeah, but that's our history and our heritage. what about the present that's question. >> tim berners—lee. what >> oh, the internet. yeah. well, one of my viewers here says, cancel stop social media. cancel and stop social media. get of and ban it. he get rid of it. and ban it. he says, take back the old says, take us back to the old days because they were happier and .so

days because they were happier and . so your and better. so that is your assignment. will have some assignment. and i will have some of feedback next of your feedback after the next break. your positives break. give me your positives about britain, if you will. let's talk policing, though. is that country? that a positive in this country? is that going well or the is that going well or not? the police are always under the spotlight, aren't today spotlight, aren't they? today they've more so they've been even more so because a picture of some new recruits came onto our screens . recruits came onto our screens. and what people were saying is that look at the young lad there. he is a new recruit. and apparently people are criticised him, saying that he looks about 12. well, first first, 12. well, first things first, i want to say is fair play to both of those young people because is not all tea china not for all the tea in china quite frankly. would i volunteer to be a police officer in this day and i respect day and age? and i respect anybody decides to do that anybody that decides to do that and their life on the line and puts their life on the line to keep of us safe. to keep all of us safe. so respect you, it did get respect to you, but it did get me wondering, though, peter, is there a kind of when it comes to there a kind of when it comes to the physicality, if you want want of a better word , the want of a better word, the presence, the look, the appearance of police officers , appearance of police officers, doesit appearance of police officers, does it matter? should there for be example, height , regulations?

be example, height, regulations? you've got to meet a certain height. should there be a weight restriction like what? >> no, there used to be a height restriction and which i kind of grew up thinking of, and it was abolished. i hadn't realised at some in last 20 or 30 some point in the last 20 or 30 years, but don't think it years, but i don't think it matters you look. i mean, matters how you look. i mean, good young lad for good on this young lad for joining, rightly said. joining, as you rightly said. yes there's been police misconduct, but officers going to every day putting to work every day putting themselves at risk, not knowing what happened to them. so it's is right to stand up for the police and if this young man is joining fantastic . i don't think joining fantastic. i don't think it matters what you look like. and as that was and as someone that was regularly buying alcohol, regularly id'd buying alcohol, certainly up to the age of 40, i've got bit sympathy for i've got a bit of sympathy for this chap . this chap. >> so do you think it's right or irrelevant that the height requirements have gone? does that matter? >> think it does matter. >> i do think it does matter. now, you're chasing after now, if you're chasing after a robber think about lot of robber and think about a lot of other, weight? no, other, what about weight? no, certainly doesn't matter. and think what police is think about what police work is today. of it is staring at today. a lot of it is staring at a computer example. there's a computer for example. there's so fraud, tattoos, so much more fraud, tattoos,

visible less visible tattoos. that's less about more about about requirement, more about a dress code. i don't know if the police ban them or not. i'd imagine they insist on them being covered up like a lot of retailers do. >> says you shouldn't >> yeah, it says you shouldn't have tattoos which are considered discriminate racist, have tattoos which are considand discriminate racist, have tattoos which are considand on;criminate racist, have tattoos which are considand on younnate racist, have tattoos which are considand on you shouldn't:ist, sexist and on you shouldn't have them etcetera . them on your face, etcetera. facial and tongue piercings are not . and so goes not permitted. and so it goes on. what's your thoughts? martin well , i on. what's your thoughts? martin well, i agree. >> you know, credit to the lad for standing up. be proud of that. for standing up. be proud of that . was son taken out that. was your son taken out precisely. but he looks like precisely. but but he looks like my he looks like my son, who's 14. he looks like a kid in fancy dress. that's one thing. secondly i'm spring thing. secondly i'm no spring chicken, but i'm struck by the fact that i'm pretty sure i could outrun most coppers in london. they seem to be either pencil graduates who pencil necked graduates who can't even arrest people. saw can't even arrest people. we saw that vauxhall station that video at vauxhall station five coppers kind of five coppers just kind of talking their walkie talking into their walkie talkies, unable to make a single arrest. seem to have arrest. or they seem to have loyalty cards from dunkin doughnuts and they're quite overweight . and let's face it, overweight. and let's face it, i disagree. i think there should be a return to the days of a of

to that

in to. hello there, michelle dewberry with you till 7:00 alongside me. former brexit party mep martin daubney and the former editor of the labourlist peter edwards. i was asking you what is positive about britain today that comes off the back of a survey that says that 76% of us say that life in this country is simply getting worse. kim in doncaster good old donny. she says fish and chips, that is positive about this country. stephen says, what about patty and chips from a decent chippy in hull? i agree with you as bernard says, what nhs ? anyone what about the nhs? anyone should think that that is should surely think that that is a positive, no matter how badly it's run. i agree with you. it's been run. i agree with you. gary says. what about all the great british sports that lots of touch about of you getting in touch about sport saying we invented a sport saying that we invented a lot we're quite good lot of it and we're quite good at but listen to this from at it. but listen to this from ian. i like this. i've lived in taiwan 30 and trust me taiwan for 30 years and trust me when i say this, the taiwanese

think of england as a place of respect. man was law and order with educational up with great educational places up and down country, he says. and down the country, he says. and bring in 14 students to london for three weeks next week. they are excited. week. and they are all excited. i england and so do many i love england and so do many others from many other countries thatis others from many other countries that is from ian. i like that you mention educational institutions, ian, and that means that you've teed me up nicely for my next topic. so let me ask you this. do you think your child should ever be able to live essentially a double life without your knowledge? imagine this. life without your knowledge? imagine this . you drop off. i imagine this. you drop off. i don't know your daughter. let's say anne—marie at school and unbeknown to you, whilst there she is instead known as a boy called, let's just say adam, the teachers haven't taken it upon themselves not to tell you, the parent apart gently. no such thing would ever happen, or so we're told. so then, can you imagine my surprise when in a twitter exchange yesterday about the safeguarding i received this reply from an assistant

principal uk one. i have to say he admitted that for safeguarding he would keep the trans identity of a child away from a parent. in case i quote , from a parent. in case i quote, they tried to convert it out of them in multiple follow up tweets, he says he stands by his position , but i fear he is not position, but i fear he is not a lone voice when it comes to the people that are teaching our children . ian, now, this may be children. ian, now, this may be a little bit old fashioned, i grant you that, but in my view, schools are places where kids are taught the basics. you're reading, writing your reading, you're writing your maths so on and maths and you're so on and so forth. so when then did forth. so since when then did school start to think school leaders start to think that role includes things that their role includes things like nurturing what gender a child is , especially to the child is, especially to the exclusion of the parents? surely thatis exclusion of the parents? surely that is by very definition of overreach , isn't it? and rishi overreach, isn't it? and rishi sunak ? well, he promised trans sunak? well, he promised trans guidances to all schools, which could have stopped things like i've just described . but i've just described. but surprise, surprise , it's not yet surprise, surprise, it's not yet been delivered . so i'm going to been delivered. so i'm going to end by sharing this. it's a clip

of a girl called chloe cole. she's a very, very brave lady, now aged 19, who , when now aged 19, who, when struggling with puberty , began struggling with puberty, began to think that she was in fact a boy, boy and so on, a path to surgery, medication. she was placed. now, i do have to warn you, before i play this is quite explicit because she now speaks out against just what has happened to her. >> a huge part of my future womanhood taken from me. i will never be able to breastfeed. i struggle to look at myself in the mirror at times. i i still i still struggle to this day with sexual dysfunction . and i have sexual dysfunction. and i have massive scars across my chest. and the skin grafts that they use, that they took of my nipples are weeping fluid today and they were grafted into a more masculine positioning. they said after surgery , my grades in said after surgery, my grades in school plummeted. ever everything that i went through did nothing to address my underlying mental health issues that i had. i didn't need to be lied to. i needed compassion and ineeded

lied to. i needed compassion and i needed to be loved . i needed i needed to be loved. i needed to be given therapy to help me work through my issues, not referring to my delusion that by transforming into a boy, it would solve all my problems. we need to stop telling 12 year olds that they were born wrong, that they are right to reject their own bodies and feel uncomfortable with their own skin. we need to stop telling children puberty is an children that puberty is an option, they can choose option, that they can choose what kind of puberty they will go can go through. just as they can choose what clothes to wear or what music to listen to. puberty is of passage to is a rite of passage to adulthood, not a disease to be mitigated . mitigated. >> hey, hey. now, if you've got kids, grandkids, nieces, nephews orjust kids, generally that kids, grandkids, nieces, nephews or just kids, generally that you care for, i recommend all of you look up that story of chloe cole and we let it be a lesson to us all and to rishi sunak and to gillian keegan. with your failure to deliver this much needed and essential trans guidance into schools, you are failing all of us parents and all of our children. shame on

you . for i feel so passionately you. for i feel so passionately about this subject matter and as about this subject matter and as a mom to a little one. because if my son, when he gets to puberty or whatever, starts to think, oh yeah, i'm not happy with this, or i don't like this, or i want to put a dress on or whatever it is, i don't want him to be actively encouraged to believe that he can be a girl and go on to this pathway that i believe can go on to cause him harm and i don't understand why people when i say people, i mean those powers that be. why aren't people up and stepping people stepping up and stepping in prevent some of what is in to prevent some of what is going on in this country? we're on this topic, and i saw that speech by chloe cole. >> it absolutely moved me to tears it. it really tears when i saw it. it really made me weep. and it still really gets me now. and that is because this isn't just a rare event. this is happening in schools. the length breadth schools. the length and breadth of happening in of our nation. it's happening in my school and i'm seeing a my son's school and i'm seeing a pattern of people with autism

who are going through a phase , who are going through a phase, who are going through a phase, who latch on to this thing often they discover it for the first time in schools and they're latching on to it. and they're deciding, right, that's it. i'm trans. and then i've seen in my boys peer group kids just change their mind. i didn't i'm not really trans just a phase. however, during that time they were nurtured, treated as heroes by their teachers and as for the nofion by their teachers and as for the notion of this happening in secret without the knowledge of the there's a word for the parents, there's a word for that. and the left hate it. and it's grooming. you're grooming young dangerous and young minds in a dangerous and pervasive in the secrecy pervasive way. in the secrecy away from parents, teachers who do that, i think should be struck off the register and they should be kicked out of the profession and schools who allow it should be defunded. i think it's damaging an entire generation. it's dividing communities. destroying communities. it's destroying peer groups. parents are falling out . it's a peer groups. parents are falling out. it's a dangerous social experiment . and children are not experiment. and children are not plaything songs for activist teachers. they should be cherished and protected . and if

cherished and protected. and if they're being forced down the route of hormones and surgeries by activist teachers who think they're like evangeli preachers, to go out there and put their message into our children's minds, i think they should be kicked out of the system. >> where do you stand on it, peter? >> well, it's not about left, right. let's take that out of it. i think that's really tiresome. i think we'd all agree that the parents need to know what's in their what's going on in their children's lives and certainly in twitter exchange, in your twitter exchange, although it although i've not studied it all, there would almost no all, there would be almost no justification school justification for a school withholding that information because not. school teacher because it's not. school teacher can provide pastoral support, but it's mum and dad and the gp who are there to provide medical and emotional support. >> well, i asked this teacher by the way, i'm deliberately not naming him on television, so he's assistant principal and he's an assistant principal and i asked him because he's very resolute. he stands by his beliefs. and i asked him, well, why on the show why don't you come on the show and we'll debate he's not and we'll debate this. he's not yet up on that offer. yet taken me up on that offer. what says, be clear, i what he says, to be clear, i take the lead from the child if

they to tell their parents, they want to tell their parents, i support but if i would support them. but if they felt scared to tell their parents, i would tell their parents, i would not tell their parents. it's whatever is best in of the child as in the interests of the child as per keeping children safe in education but i just i education 2023. but i just i just and my partner goes , well, just and my partner goes, well, he goes mad at me. he thinks i get a bit obsessed with this topic because i do. i fear for children and this isn't just in schools, by the way. this social media thing bombarding kids when you go through your changing thing child to teen , it thing from a child to a teen, it is a little bit is like a little bit overwhelming. things are popping out everywhere out here, there and everywhere and hormones all over the place. and do start feel and you do start to feel discombobulated and think if discombobulated. and i think if you connect naturally to you don't connect naturally to what been established what has been established in this country, or this country, rightly or wrongly, gender norm wrongly, is the gender norm norms like, i don't know, sir. girls dresses wear girls wear dresses and boys wear trousers girls makeup and trousers and girls makeup and whatever. those kind of things. if don't connect naturally if you don't connect naturally to boxes, which is to one of those boxes, which is fine, the way, there's a load fine, by the way, there's a load of that are tomboys or of girls that are tomboys or whatever, you whatever, but just because you don't those boxes doesn't don't tick those boxes doesn't mean you should

mean that therefore you should be on this path to hormones blocking and surgery . and i find blocking and surgery. and i find it concerning as chloe highlights, because ultimate only when you start changing your body, the future ramifications of that can be lifelong . if indeed you then lifelong. if indeed you then change your mind and make and realise that you made a mistake. >> i think we're just getting this all wrong. you know, rather than identifying confused young people, completely normal people, it's completely normal to confused with teenagers. to be confused with teenagers. do were do you remember? we all were confused now ? now the confused and now? now the confusion around your sexuality, your identity or your your, your body morphism has been so you must be trans and they're being picked out and identified, planting ideas into their minds and rather than saying you're a confused young person who needs to be changed, how about saying you're a confused person who needs to be loved and spoken to and understood and let's chat this through before we go down this through before we go down this irreversible route of physical and mental. you know , physical and mental. you know,

self—harm state endorsed and funded by the nhs . often times funded by the nhs. often times let's have a let's put the brakes on this and let's instead be mature. >> there will be people as well. perhaps watching this that say, you know , michel, your you know, michel, your perspective is wrong. and what you're saying is wrong. you don't understand because you're not a trans person. and if you are person, then you are a trans person, then you know heart of hearts. know it in your heart of hearts. and it's a random adult and it's not for a random adult or whoever that is to you or whoever that is to tell you what you are and what you're not. i don't i'm not denying not. and i don't i'm not denying the of trans people. the existence of trans people. by saying is by the way, what i'm saying is that kind of it seems to be that this kind of it seems to be the first point of call when a child is confused or you must be trans, know, help you trans, you know, let's help you in journey then opposed in this journey then as opposed to it being a last point of call, when all the other options of how do we make you happy and what are have been what you actually are have been explored look, is explored anyway? look, this is a topic that's not going away any time i fascinated time soon, but i am fascinated as what your thoughts on it as to what your thoughts on it are. and know, what is this are. and you know, what is this government there government playing out? there was have trans was supposed to have this trans guidance in place before the schools broke for summer. schools broke up for the summer. well, the schools

well, here we go. the schools are and surprise, are broke up and surprise, surprise, not there. and as surprise, it's not there. and as i said, find that personally i said, i find that personally shameful. what you make shameful. but what do you make to i guess what's coming to it all? i guess what's coming up after the after the break? donald trump, do think he'll donald trump, do you think he'll ever quiet , bully all of ever just quiet, bully all of this kind controversy around this kind of controversy around him will disappear? i don't think it so i'm asking think it will. so i'm asking tonight, been indicted tonight, he's been indicted again. he's the again. do you think he's the victim of hunt or is victim of a witch hunt or is what's happening simply fair, due process ? your thoughts

hello there. i'm michelle dewberry with you till 7:00 tonight. martin daubney and peter edwards alongside me. we've just been talking about about well, never mind . these about well, never mind. these two are laughing because i was just telling i was telling a story in the break when i was talking about the trans issue in schools. i'm just telling a story that my friend's friend, a girl, when she was at school, she was a boy she was convinced she was a boy to point where she would to the point where she would stand we and these guys

stand up. and we and these guys were just asking me questions about how earth that actually about how on earth that actually worked. point was, if worked. anyway my point was, if she school these days, she was at school these days, she was at school these days, she probably she she would be told probably she was and passed through was a boy and passed through onto goodness only knows what pathway and she's pathway to do what. and she's not she's a girl. but she not a boy, she's a girl. but she was little bit of was just a little bit of a tomboy, lisa says. i'm an educational psychologist specialising i'm also specialising in autism. i'm also a i am shocked specialising in autism. i'm also a what i am shocked specialising in autism. i'm also a what is i am shocked specialising in autism. i'm also a what is happening am shocked specialising in autism. i'm also a what is happening in| shocked specialising in autism. i'm also a what is happening in ourycked by what is happening in our schools. many children that are autistic are being encouraged to think they're typical. think that they're typical. social actually now social confusion is actually now because they are trans gender, andrew says. michelle is a primary school teacher. it is horrifying to see so many children now having a gender ideology pushed onto them, he says. senior leaders in school are just following what he calls endless woke nonsense. he says there is now currently a quiet fight back in teaching. he says , but much more needs to be done. keep your thoughts on all of the topics coming in, but i shall just move on to donald trump in the news again today. and i'm asking, do you think

he's a victim of a witch hunt? i'll throw it to a package to explain in case you're not familiar with the latest goings on, paul hawkins will sum it up for you . no harm . for you. no harm. >> did donald trump fuel the january 6th capitol riots the us department of justice claims he did. in a lengthy , highly did. in a lengthy, highly detailed 45 page document, the former president is charged with conspiracy to defraud the us and conspiracy to defraud the us and conspiracy to defraud the us and conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding. obstruction official proceeding. obstruction of an official proceeding and conspiracy against the rights of citizens. in summary , citizens. in summary, prosecutors claim donald trump spent his last two months in office trying to overturn the 2020 election result using dishonesty , deceit, fraud and dishonesty, deceit, fraud and lies . lies. >> well, there you go , martin >> well, there you go, martin there's been very, very different responses and reactions to this today . some reactions to this today. some people are in the camp that this is a witch hunt. they're threatened by donald trump.

everyone will do everything possible. they'll collude in whatever keep whatever way is possible to keep him far away from office ever him as far away from office ever again as impossible and ideally get him to spend many years in prison. that's one camp. the other camp saying, you know, other camp is saying, you know, that's nonsense. this guy that's all nonsense. this guy needs be book. he did needs to be held to book. he did wrong all rest of it. wrong and all the rest of it. which are you on? which side are you on? >> never twain shall >> well, never the twain shall meet two sides. this meet on those two sides. this this trial won't convince anybody on either side of the political spectrum any different , i think. but it's the moderates that we need to be concerned i'm the mind concerned about. i'm of the mind that trump is an outrageous that that trump is an outrageous wrecking ball who upset the political establishment and the media establishment in a way that nobody has ever done before or since. and he's doing it again. and i think that the process is the punishment . process is the punishment. there's not much chance of these charges . don't think charges sticking. i don't think that amendment in that the first amendment in america freedom of america allows freedom of speech, even if it's outrageously claiming that an election was which he election was rigged, which he may believe , but the evidence may believe, but the evidence necessarily wasn't there. there's some evidence of votes going missing and what not.

there's some evidence of votes going missing and whatnot. but he is doing what he does best. he's becoming the antichrist. he's becoming the antichrist. he's becoming the enemy. he's popularity is going up. he's polling is going up. his funding is going up. and ron desantis is going off a cliff. he's still the only candidate who can beat joe biden. and the timing, i think , of this is grotesquely think, of this is grotesquely cynical because hunter biden is basically been found guilty of wrongdoing. and they tried to do a kiss off deal. it's bring his dad into the spectrum bang. this lands not only to wreck trump's campaign but so not all about joe biden and it's working . joe biden and it's working. >> whenever you mention the name hunter biden, certain things hunter biden, the certain things images my retina images burned onto my retina from laptops. i will from various laptops. i will never unsee that. make me shudder. anyway peter, where do you stand on trump ? you stand on trump? >> i think it's a grotesque sideshow that's increasingly irrelevant to our lives. of course, america will always be important. it's a global power. economically. it's massively influential, but it's horrible watching this. i think donald trump is gripped by self delusion. i think he's almost

certain to be the republican candidate who will beat desantis. as martin said . and i desantis. as martin said. and i think he probably won't be biden in a runoff. but the point about trump is for reasons of politics for and reasons of money, a lot more of a base motive for someone who's very rich . he'll someone who's very rich. he'll keep the controversy going and he'll keep the hatred going and he'll keep the hatred going and he'll do it all out of his own self interest. he'll do it all out of his own selflt'serest. he'll do it all out of his own selflt's also. he'll do it all out of his own selflt's also worth bearing in >> it's also worth bearing in mind what's fascinating about this exposing how political this is exposing how political the american justice system is . the american justice system is. so he's going to be tried by a judge who was installed by barack obama. so he's never to going get a fair trial. and he knows that he'll make a play about that all the way down the line. it's rigged. it's a kangaroo court. and he would do all of this to improve his ratings and his popularity and his funding. >> think he wants to be >> do you think he wants to be president or do you think he wants very i think wants to be very rich? i think he i think he wants to be president. >> he's already very rich. >> he's already very rich. >> but i would not if i wanted. no rational person on the left or right if they wanted to
